Chapter 739 Old friends! (Thanks to book friend Liufeng Tianyu for writing(1/2)
Faced with Cui Shao's inquiry, Zhu Xiaowen did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought seriously...
After thinking about it for half a cup of tea, Zhu Xiaowen slowly said:
"After Mr. Gu came to Liaoyang, he seemed to be seeking no merit but no fault. He only asked about important matters regarding the Chief Secretary's dealings. Like other relatively minor matters, he left them to the subordinates.
Someone will do it!"
"And these things I discovered were also some clues found in some eucalyptus sects after I was about to take office as the inspector. The other party was also very careful in doing this and did not reveal too many flaws, so this matter is logically
Master Gu, he probably doesn’t know!”
Listening to what Zhu Xiaowen said, Cui Shao nodded slightly and said:
"Don't report it to the commander-in-chief before you have conclusive evidence of a serious matter! Be careful to alert the enemy!"
"Yes! Uncle!"
Upon hearing this, Cui Shao pondered for another two seconds and continued:
"Don't continue to investigate this matter, you should pay attention to your own safety!"
Zhu Xiaowen was a little surprised when he heard this and said:
"Uncle, I am the inspector of Liaoyang. How can they be so courageous?"
Cui Shao warned carefully:
"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake! They don't dare to do anything to you openly, but it's not impossible to cause accidents secretly..."
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Xiaowen was immediately shocked, and once again realized the seriousness of the matter, he nodded heavily to Cui Shao and said;
"Uncle, I will pay attention!"
After burning the incense, Zhu Xiaowen left Cui Shao's study. Cui Shao sat alone in the Taishi chair and meditated behind closed doors. After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and then stood up from the chair. He found a few official documents from the study and carefully
After checking it, Cui Shao's eyes couldn't help but flicker again when he looked at the records on the official document.
Cui Shao, who realized something, started pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back. After walking for about a stick of incense, Cui Shao had an idea in his mind, and immediately started to write hurriedly. After finishing the letter, Cui Shao wrote to
shouted outside the house:
"Get Cui Xin for me!"
"yes!"
While waiting for the servant to come, Cui Shao felt unsafe looking at the letter in his hand. After thinking for a while, he burned the written credit candle.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with ordinary appearance but extremely strong body came to Cui Shao.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"Master, are you looking for me?"
Cui Shao nodded and said:
"Go back to your hometown and tell Wende to keep an eye on the Ershunshan warehouse and the shopkeeper of Dadongsheng Company in Liaoyang!"
Cui Xinxin was shocked when these words came out. He hesitated and said:
"Master, the showcase of Dadongsheng Company in Liaoyang is called Ye Zhanpeng. He is Ye Hongsheng's nephew. It's not a good idea for us to send people to keep an eye on him, in case there is some misunderstanding...
········”
Looking at Cui Xin who looked hesitant, Cui Shao snorted and said:
"Whatever I tell you to do! Just do it!"
"If something happens, of course I will take care of it! What are you afraid of, you bastard?"
Hearing what Cui Shao said, Cui Xin naturally couldn't say anything else, and immediately nodded and said:
"Master, I understand! I will deliver it early tomorrow morning!"
Cui Shao warned in a deep voice:
"You're leaving tonight! And you told Wende that this matter must be done secretly, so that nothing leaks out!"
Seeing Cui Shao acting like he was facing a formidable enemy, although Cui Xin didn't know why Cui Shao did this, he also realized that what Cui Shao told him was not a trivial matter.
Cui Xin took a deep breath, nodded heavily towards Cui Shao and said:
"I understand, I'm ready to set off now!"
Cui Shao nodded slightly when he got this answer. After Cui Xin left, he looked at the bright moon outside the window and sighed slightly.
Although he still doesn't know where the situation will go in the future and whether those few people are involved in this matter, what he can expect is that the power structure of Fengwu Army may usher in a new round of reshuffle in the near future.
People will lose power because of this, and some people will rise to power.
And what he is doing now is to prepare for a rainy day and try his best to make himself invincible in this new round of power reshuffle...

August 29, noon
A group of carriages slowly drove into Yijing City. As the carriages entered the city, the curtains in the carriages were slowly opened. A man in his early thirties, dressed in luxurious clothes, looked at everything in the city curiously.
"Baozi! Baozi! A big hot pork bun costs two cents. You won't forget it after you eat it! I'll come back to eat buns next time!"
"Cotton! Cotton! Two coins a piece! Autumn is coming soon, and clothes made of cotton are the only way to keep warm!"
······················
······················
Looking at the lively and prosperous scene in front of him, the man seemed to feel a little incredible. Although he had never been to Yijing, in his impression, although Yijing was a big city in the north, it was just a bitter and cold place on the frontier. How could it look like this now?
Almost as prosperous as Luoan?
The man was Qian Buli, the current Minister of War of the Luo'an Imperial Court. This time, he was ordered by Shangguan Hongyuan to secretly go to Yi Jing as an envoy in order to reach a peace agreement with the Fengwu Army.
Just when Qian Buli couldn't believe what he was seeing, he heard a voice that shocked him extremely.
"White rice! White rice! Two coins and one stone!"
Hearing this, Qian Buli was stunned for a moment. He hesitated and then immediately ordered the driver to stop the carriage. Then he locked his eyes on a grain store on the roadside and looked at the two-money-one-stone flag in front of the grain store.
Qian Buli was finally sure that he had heard correctly, and immediately got out of the carriage and walked towards the grain store.
The owner of the grain store saw someone coming towards him, and this person was also dressed luxuriously. He looked like a wealthy owner. His eyes immediately lit up, and he greeted the person warmly and said:
"Do you want to buy rice? Ours is local white rice. Whether you are cooking or making porridge, it will taste delicious. If you buy more than ten dan, I will arrange for a waiter to deliver it to your home..."
·················”
Qian Buli ignored the boss's greeting, but looked at the white rice in the sack. The rice had a dull surface and was a little rough. He knew it was old rice at a glance. Even so, Qian Buli still didn't believe that the rice was actually
Just two coins and one stone!
You must know that the same old rice costs a full five qian in Luo'an! It is two and a half times more expensive than here!
Seeing that the man was silent, the owner of the grain store thought that this well-dressed guest didn't like the old rice in the sack, so he introduced it enthusiastically again:
"Guest, we still have last year's new rice here. It has been well preserved in the granary. It still tastes like rice. But the silver is three and a half qian and one stone. Let me show it to you?
"
The man was even more shocked after hearing this. However, just when he was about to answer, a Fengwu Army general came over and said very seriously:
"Master Qian! Please get in the car!"
Hearing the words of the Fengwu Army general, Qian Buli showed a hint of helplessness on his face, and then he got into the carriage obediently.
After burning the incense, the carriage stopped in front of an inn. Seeing the destination, Qian Buli got out of the carriage again. Zhang Ji, the general of the Fengwu Army just now, came to Qian Buli again and introduced him to Qian Buli.
road:
"Master Qian, this Jixiang Inn is where you will stay during your stay in Yijing. We will give you the best guest room and have someone responsible for your food, clothing, housing and transportation. You can stay here for now, you and your entourage.
Don’t run around..."
After hearing this Qian Buli nodded slightly and said:
"No problem with any of this!"
"But I have a question. I wonder if General Zhang can explain it to me?"
Zhang Jidan said calmly:
"Sir Qian, please tell me."
"I wonder when your commander will see me?" Qian Buli asked seriously:
Regarding this issue, Zhang Ji still calmly said:
"Our commander-in-chief has many things to do and is busy with official duties. Mr. Qian, if you want to see our commander-in-chief, you may have to wait for a while, but I believe that if our commander-in-chief is free recently, the Attendant Department will arrange for you to meet our commander-in-chief as soon as possible!"
Hearing what Zhang Ji said Qian Buli was obviously not satisfied, but at this time he was under the eaves and he couldn't say anything. He could only hold his hands towards Zhang Ji and said:
"Please, General Zhang, can you help me! Qian came here this time to quell the war and benefit millions of people in the Zhou Dynasty! The sooner the war subsides, the people will be able to enjoy peace. General Zhang, this is a
