119 Melting Ice
The floor of the Dingfa Pavilion belonging to Manjusri is still very well decorated and arranged. Even though he is old, he is still full of energy. No one looks like an octogenarian who is imprisoned in a prison.
It is naturally not a small matter for the Holy Master to come to Dingfa Pavilion Tianlao in person.
Along the way, the cadres of the Law Department opened the way, and the troops of the Military Department accompanied them. They were not allowed to approach for fifty steps forward or backward, and no carriage or horse was allowed for a hundred steps.
The stores were closed, and officers and soldiers were stationed until in front of the Dingfa Pavilion.
"See Your Highness."
The people waiting here were not the officers of the Legal Department, but Jiang Ningyun personally greeted him.
Han Dongwen was slightly stunned, then opened the curtain of the car and let the officers and soldiers next to him escort him down to the ground. "No courtesy, no courtesy."
In addition to Li Zai, the guards of the Xiu Department handed over to the officials of the Law Department on the spot, and the group of people walked into the Dingfa Pavilion with the lights on.
Jiang Ningyun walked very close, Han Dongwen looked around slightly,&nbp;&nbp;and leaned closer
"Jiang Ningyun, do you know about the death of one of your Sidianbu officers in battle?"
The firelight moved forward, creating a bright orange border on the side of Jiang Ningyun's face. The hair tied behind her head swayed slightly with her steps. She looked forward and replied without emotion in her tone, "Wu Yue himself." It's not a pity if you are not good at practicing. But the judicial officer is not careful in employing people, so I also ask your Majesty to punish you."
Their steps were not slow at all, and they walked step by step towards the Dingfa Attic.
Then there is a huge spiral staircase extending underground, like a tower inserted upside down into the ground.
"We will discuss whether he should be punished or not. In this case, the military department has already asked for additional troops and is preparing to send more troops."
As Han Dongwen spoke, he carefully observed Jiang Ningyun's reaction, but found that she still looked like she had known for a long time and made no other moves.
"If this is the case,&nbp;&nbp;Fasi Gongsun will fully assist and send additional troops."
After listening to what she said,&nbp;&nbp;Han Dongwen thought for a long time, and his tone became more businesslike, "Yes, I have already prepared the plan and dispatched Lieutenant Liu Cheng of the National Finance Department to the border for reinforcements."
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Ningyun paused slightly. She turned to look at Han Dongwen and said with rare hesitation, "Liu Cheng from the National Finance Department?"
"good."
Han Dongwen stopped playing riddles and spread his hands, "You must be unhappy when the National Military Division recruits people. Not only is Tantai unhappy when you recruit people, but I also don't want to think that suddenly three of the officers in the National Military Division are not at their original posts."
Wu Yue died in the battle, and Gongsun Changzheng was already present. These are the two people.
If one more person is sent to Bailan Mountain, then only five of the eight captains of the Fasi will be left. Among these five are Duan Qingzhu, who cannot run far, and the cadres who need to stay at Dingfa Pavilion. Only the remaining It can be used by three people,&nbp;&nbp;it really can’t be called flexible.
"Please don't blame me, Chief Secretary.&nbp;&nbp;I can only blame Mr. Wu Yue for being reckless,&nbp;&nbp;he just wants to compete for the top spot."
Han Dongwen took a step forward, not avoiding Jiang Ningyun's eyes, "But Concubine Yin Li is about to come, so it's better for the Chief Justice not to make any more mistakes."
Jiang Ningyun stared at Han Dongwen with round eyes, almost angry, but finally suppressed it and said, "If this is the case, then the transfer of the captain of the National Finance Department also requires Lord Manjusri's nod. In this case... "
She paused for a moment, a trace of worry flashed across her brows
"In this case, the National Finance Division may have too many things to call the shots at the moment?"
Han Dongwen nodded wordlessly.
Send Liu Cheng, unfreeze Tilda, and negotiate to retain the foreign envoys and trade group.
He had a feeling in the dark, as if Manjusri from the Jin Dynasty of this country was released, and he bared his teeth and claws, and suddenly grasped the most critical things.
Han Dongwen didn't like this feeling very much. Since the Anhai Jin Dynasty, he had been repeatedly tossed between the Military Department and the Legal Department. He temporarily bought himself a little breathing space, but the moment Manjusri was released, he was choked again.
.
He didn't want to be choked again, so Manjusri naturally had to guard against him.
How to prevent it?
Tilda was sealed, and everyone was helpless.
Sending Liu Cheng was also a helpless move.
"Only the business group remains..."
Han Dongwen was thinking secretly in his heart, and suddenly Jiang Ningyun in front of him stopped.
"The guilty minister Manjushri, please see your highness!"
An old but energetic voice came from the depths of this level, and the elegant bamboo decoration around it made it impossible to tell that this was a prison.
Manjusri was half-kneeling in the middle of this bamboo room. He was nominally innocent at this moment and had no shackles. As long as he successfully "unfroze" Tilda here, he could live openly and openly.
Walk out of Dingfa Pavilion.
And the extremely familiar ice that sealed Tilda was placed behind him, slowly emitting a sinking white frost mist.
"No gift."
The positions of Han Dongwen and Jiang Ningyun inadvertently switched. She followed His Highness, her eyes going back and forth between Manjusri and the huge piece of ice.
"How's it going?"
Han Dongwen walked forward slowly and looked up at the huge piece of ice.
Cool and calm.
Tilda's body lay peacefully in the cold as if she was sleeping soundly. The ice surface reflected the surrounding candlelight, shining like stars on the crystal-like mirror.
If Tilda inside wasn't so important, it would be a pity to turn something like a work of art away.
Of course, Han Dongwen did not forget the Yunpo Sword inside, which was also close at hand but not available. Its current importance was no less important than Tilda's.
If it weren't for the man with the Yunbo Sword, he would have no way to visit the scene again.
Not being close to the battlefield means there is no way to participate.
If you can't participate, you won't be able to make progress. You still need to be hard-working. Han Dongwen really needs ways to strengthen himself faster.
"Your Highness, the seal set by the Grand Duke of West Asia is not an ordinary West Asian magic. I have to use my strength to defeat the ingenuity and rely on my spiritual power to circulate water through the petrified ice."
While Manjusri was talking, a row of faint halos of light lit up around the ice, just like planets revolving around a star, reciprocating around this huge piece of ice.
"This is too slow."
Han Dongwen turned around with a serious expression, looked at Jiang Ningyun, then looked at Li Zai who had been guarding the corner not far away, and sighed slightly.
"Manjushri, are there any difficulties in your subordinate Liu Cheng's reinforcement of Bailan Mountain?"
After hearing His Highness's question, Wenjutong smiled calmly on his face, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, for giving the National Finance Division such a rare opportunity to serve the country. Liu Chengding will live up to his mission and will definitely avenge his colleagues in the Legal Division."
"Okay, very good."
Han Dongwen laughed and seemed very satisfied with Manjusri's answer. He raised his hand and pressed it gently on the ice cube, feeling the cold that seemed to burn his palms. "It can not only wake up the Grand Duke, but also calm down the chaos on the border. Fortunately, Simeng has
National Finance Department!"
Just as Manjusri was about to hand over his hand and say some humble words, Han Dongwen suddenly turned around and said, "I received a report from Taishu Pavilion today and said that some foreign envoys and merchant groups are saying that Simeng will be in chaos and want to evacuate?"
There was silence in the bamboo room.
Jiang Ningyun's eyes suddenly became sharp and he glanced at Wenjutong's back.
"Your Highness, don't worry."
Wenshu Tong paused for a moment, the smile on his face turned away, and he raised his eyebrows slightly: "If His Highness agrees, the National Finance Department will naturally make efforts to mediate and retain the business group. After all, if the National Finance Department can stabilize the border, the business group will be able to
There is no need to avoid disaster."
"Yeah……"
Han Dongwen shook his hand, but he couldn't shake off all the water droplets on it.
He looked at Wenshu Tong, smiled and walked forward, "If we want to keep them, the National Finance Department must provide them with a lot of benefits, but I'm afraid they will waste time and money."
"Your Highness is aware that there will be chaos in Taka at present. If the merchant group withdraws from Simeng now, it will be extremely detrimental to our diplomatic relations and will further show that Your Highness is weak and unable to secure the country."
Manjusri lowered his head slightly, as if he were a loyal minister and said directly, "This is actually a necessary policy, and I hope His Highness will approve it."
"A necessary measure..."
Han Dongwen raised his head and took a deep breath, looking at Tilda in trance.
For a long time, he spoke word by word
"Let them go and invade West Asia. Naturally, there will be no war in Simeng. If we can't invade West Asia -"
He turned around and said with a wild smile, "How can we not enter Western Asia! How can a dignified captain of the National Finance Department disappoint everyone like the defeated general Wu Yue?"
"Offering them benefits to stay? Bah! Let them go, don't try to persuade them to stay, don't act in such a cowardly manner, and lose Simeng's face in front of these outsiders!"
His gaze swept towards Manjusri like a sword, and for the first time a trace of surprise appeared on the veteran minister's usually calm face.
"As soon as the official letter from the foreign envoy arrives, we will open the port for them immediately. Simeng will not send any soldiers to protect each other. Do you hear me clearly?"
Han Dongwen waved his hand, and Manjusri came back to his senses. He quickly lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, it would be inappropriate for Simeng to leave Hong Kong without escort..."
"What kind of etiquette!"
Han Dongwen spread his hands, "Didn't they say they were leaving due to the war in Simeng? There was a war in Simeng, so how could there be any spare energy to send them away?"
Manjusri was suffocated and suddenly lost his voice in front of this random decision without any foresight.
Behind him, Jiang Ningyun frowned slightly and looked at Han Dongwen with complicated eyes. In addition to doubts, there was also a hint of subtle wariness in his eyes.
