240 Great help

"My lord, general, what... do you mean?" Wei Qing and Zi Lan looked at each other, "Is the commander really sick?"

"This... can't be said!" Shen Cha waved her hand and looked at Shen Haolin's empty tea bowl, "Brother, go take a bath first. I still have something to say to the two of them." As she spoke, she stood. He got up and walked into the inner room. After a while, he walked out with Shen Haolin's clothes at home. He handed the clothes in his hands to Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, "You two go and prepare hot water for the Duke."

"Yes!" Mei Lin and Mei Zhu took the clothes, bowed slightly to Shen Haolin and Chen Cha, turned and left.

"I'm going to take a bath." Shen Haolin stood up, walked to Shen Cha, reached out and pinched her cheek, "Let's talk!"

Shen Cha nodded and personally sent Shen Haolin out of the door. When he turned around, he saw Wei Qing and Zilan both heaving a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Cha came back and sat down again, looking at them curiously, "So nervous?"

"Boss, I haven't seen you for many years. The momentum of the Duke of Guo is really getting stronger and stronger. The two of us are so overwhelmed by him that we can hardly breathe." Zilan patted her small chest, "Although He was smiling, but he was still scared to death."

"How can my brother be as scary as you said? He is obviously very amiable." Shen Cha shook her head in disapproval, "Could he still scare you because of His Majesty? It's too exaggerated. This is not good." She tapped the table lightly. "Come on, let's talk about serious matters. Let's put aside the cold Duke in your mind for now." She picked up the envelope from before, pulled out the thick stack of paper inside, and spread it between Wei Qing and In front of Zi Lan, "Tell me, what's going on? Why does Your Majesty suddenly want to investigate the details of Xijing?"

"Boss, this is not caused by the old case of the Xia family. Instead..." Wei Qing sighed, "Those guys who replaced Xue Houye's uncle and aunt, although they are all dead, the information obtained from them It seems that there are indeed Jin Guo's spies in Beijing. However, without an exact list, we can only cast a net to catch fish and find the needle in the haystack."

"The commander-in-chief said before that the initial list was much more streamlined than the current one. Those who have been streamlined have been determined to have nothing to do with foreign races?"

"Yes, the charges against those people are basically bullying others, bullying men and women, extortion, collusion between officials and businessmen, etc., which have nothing to do with foreigners. Your Majesty, under the guise of investigating this group of people, is secretly investigating foreigners. The detailed work installed in Xijing." Wei Qing pointed to the thick stack of paper, "Investigations came and went, and in the end these people were left. However, these people have always been dormant. If they were not brothers in the capital, We, the brothers from the patrol battalion and the Forbidden Army are keeping a close eye on them, and they have smelled something unusual from the clues, but they will not be able to catch them."

"I just flipped through it casually and glanced twice. Since they haven't moved, how did you keep an eye on them?" Shen Cha picked up the top piece of paper and said, "There are some people here. You are not young anymore. You must have arrived in Xijing a long time ago. You have been safe and sound for so many years without being discovered. However, you have been exposed in just a few days. There must be a reason, right?"

"It's because the envoys from various countries gathered in the capital." Wei Qing sighed, "The internal battles in the Jin Kingdom are not only paid attention to by us and the Liao Kingdom, but other foreigners are also keeping a close eye on them, and probably... they also want to take advantage of them. Take a piece of the pie.”

"Duan family? Huihe? Those guys from Tubo?" Seeing Wei Qing and Zilan nodding, Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, "So, they are all contacting their respective agents, hoping to get some useful information. Unfortunately, this is useful. I didn't get the news, but you found the trace." She picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "I made an agreement with the Commander-in-Chief that after I read it in the next few days, I will give him a clear answer, and you will Don't worry about it. Remember, after that, tell your Majesty what I said, don't move these people for the time being, it is still useful to keep them."

"Yes." Wei Qing and Zi Lan agreed in unison, "Boss, if there's nothing else, let's leave first."

"Wait a minute." Shen Cha stretched out his hand to stop the two people, "Aside from Cha Xizuo, what other things happened in Beijing?"

"Then it's nothing." Wei Qing shook her head, "No matter how big the matter is, it can't be bigger than the matter of Prince Yihe's Mansion. Everyone's attention is focused on them. Those censors and Hanlin officials are finally After catching a major incident, he wrote to His Majesty endlessly, saying that he would strictly investigate the nobles to avoid the second Prince Yihe's Mansion. He even dug up the old affairs of the Wuding Hou Mansion, forcing His Majesty to investigate all the nobles, and even ...They strongly advocated an inventory of the Zhenguo government, the Shen family army, and the generals and border troops guarding the other three territories."

"A centipede insect is dead but not stiff." Shen Haolin opened the door after taking a bath and sneered, "The late emperor and His Majesty valued military affairs over civil affairs. Military generals suppressed civil servants everywhere. On the surface, civil servants seemed to have become more honest. But as long as they get the chance, they will relapse." Taking off his outer cloak, Shen Haolin sat back next to Shen Cha and took the hand stove from her, "Song Jue has never mentioned these things to us. Cha'er, did he tell you?"

"No." Shen Cha shook his head, "Maybe he solved it himself. Song Jue is much better at dealing with those guys who can't lift their shoulders or lift their hands. Although the two prime ministers and the big guys in the cabinet, He is the head of the civil service, but many of his descendants are brave enough to fight enemies at the border. From them, no one will be allowed to stretch their hands too far. What’s more..."

"It's not easy to be an official in Beijing!" Shen Haolin poured himself a cup of tea and sneered, "The expenses in Beijing are huge, and the cost of favors is even greater. The monthly salary is not forbidden at all, so they want to If you want to live a relaxed and happy life in Beijing, you have to use some crooked brains to earn some pocket money. Although Song Jue doesn't look at the four or six, he is not a fool who doesn't know how to do common things. He walks around outside all day long in Beijing. She knew what the situation was. Therefore, it was impossible to play tricks under his nose without being discovered. He just didn't say it. When the critical moment came, or some people went too far, this was A powerful card."

"Coupled with the gang of scum that I found out while I was doing my best, no matter how high the censors and officials jump, they can only shoot themselves in the foot." Shen Cha nodded, "Song Jue dealt with them. It can be said that it can suppress them to death without any effort, making them live in fear all the time. They can't protect themselves and have no time to take care of other things."

"That's good." Shen Haolin nodded, "It saved us a lot of trouble, which is a big help to us. We have to thank him properly." He looked at Wei Qing, then looked at Looking at Zilan, "Have you finished talking?"

"Yes!" Wei Qing and Zi Lan saluted, "I'm taking my leave."

"You two see me off for a while." Shen Cha looked at Mei Lin and Mei Zhu, "Then go back and rest, and come back tomorrow morning!"
