These days, it is really not peaceful in Yingtian Mansion. There are soldiers everywhere searching people from house to house, and even killing people in the street. Not only because Wu Linzheng and others were rescued by Zheng Chenggong, but also because the enthronement ceremony is about to be held.
, but suddenly received bad news.
"Do you suspect there is a traitor here?"
Ma Shiying was also shocked by Liu Liangzuo's words. Ever since Zhang Zhengcheng was arrested last time, he has been taboo on the issue of traitors. Now Liu Liangzuo suddenly mentioned this matter again, undoubtedly saying that this time the traitor was still with him.
Ma Shiying was related. But it also angered him, and he didn't want to take the blame.
"Of course." Liu Liangzuo didn't want to fall out with Ma Shiying and didn't make it clear. "Otherwise, why would a stranger appear in the palace? Someone must have let him in. If I hadn't gone to check on Zhu Cixiang today,
I’m afraid we don’t know about the traitor’s condition yet!”
After saying that, he unconsciously looked at Ma Shiying.
This move immediately angered Ma Shiying, who immediately responded loudly: "Go and investigate! Send more people. As long as this person is found, there is no need to say anything, and he will be sent directly to the prison. Ask him everything he knows!"
Although these words were talking about catching the traitor, they actually showed Ma Shiying's attitude. He didn't want to bear that kind of infamy again, so he might as well just hand over the responsibility of finding the traitor this time, so as to save himself.
Eliminate suspicion.
Seeing this, Ruan Dacheng hurried forward and spoke: "Brother Ma, there is no need to be so excited. Mr. Liu has no doubts about your intentions. He is just afraid that someone will rely on your trust to disrupt our important event."
"Since you think the traitor may be from me, you can just go and investigate. What can you tell me?" Ma Shiying couldn't help but feel a little angry, and she wanted to take everything from him. Could it be that he was a traitor?
Hearing this, Liu Liangzuo didn't feel comfortable saying anything, so he could only slightly persuade him: "In this case, let's go and investigate. Brother Ma, don't take it too seriously. What we did was a major matter to kill the Nine Clan, and it was not wrong at all."
No, it’s better to be more vigilant.” After saying that, he stood up and left.
At this time, Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Huai'an, arrived. When he saw Liu Liangzuo, he wanted to say hello, but he left as if he didn't see anyone. He couldn't help but feel confused, turned around and came to Ma Shiying, saluted first, and then
Said: "Mr. Ma Ge, Huai'an Governor Lu Zhenfei came to report on his duties."
Seeing the arrival of Lu Zhenfei, whom he had not seen for a long time, Ma Shiying could not help but stand up and greet him: "You are here, please sit down quickly." After he sat down, he asked with some worry: "These days in Shandong
Is there any news over there? Or maybe there is news from His Majesty."
Seeing this, Lu Zhenfei also immediately said: "Back to Mage, there has been no big incident in Shandong recently. I just heard that there is a group of bandits that is more powerful. In less than seven days, they destroyed many bandits' camps. However, they were also killed by another group of bandits in less than seven days.
A band of thieves was wiped out, some stories in the world. But there is one that may interest you."
"Tell me."
"Jiannu came in half a month ago and retreated after a fierce battle with the intruders. However, it seems that the intruders have also withdrawn from Shandong recently. I heard that His Majesty has recovered Jinan and many surrounding prefectures and counties." Lu Zhenfei said seriously.
If Ma Shiying was still a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he would be very happy to hear this news, but now as a rebel, he is a little unhappy to hear this news. After all, once His Majesty's power expands, they will be relatively weak.
They are extremely disadvantaged.
But now is not the time to think about this problem. Ma Shiying raised a smile and said: "Zhenfei, Yingtian Mansion has not been very peaceful recently. Is there anything you can do? I heard that your management is very good."
Hearing this, Lu Zhenfei looked a little embarrassed, but he still replied: "The chaos in Yingtian Mansion is just for these few days. It will definitely get better after these few days. Mr. Ma Ge doesn't have to worry. After the enthronement ceremony is over, the people will
They gradually accepted it. It has no impact on them who becomes the emperor."
Ma Shiying couldn't help but sigh, and continued: "Wu Linzheng and the other three were rescued recently, and Zheng Chenggong joined forces with them. To be honest, I'm afraid the enthronement ceremony won't be held recently."
"What?"
Lu Zhenfei was a little confused and said: "Why can't the wonderful enthronement ceremony be held? Mr. Ma Ge, you should know the importance of the enthronement ceremony. It is very important to us now and cannot be stopped!"
"It's not that I want to stop!" Ma Shiying was quite helpless: "It's just that the prince is still in a coma and can't wake up. We can't let a comatose person ascend the throne, right? So we can only delay it for a while. Seeing just now
Liu Liangzuo is out now, he thinks there is a traitor in Yingtian Mansion and he wants to go out to search."
"And there's a traitor?"
Lu Zhenfei looked shocked.
"Yeah, I can't catch this traitor all the time. I have a headache." Just when Ma Shiying felt helpless, someone outside suddenly reported that Zheng Chenggong had a clue.
After finally hearing some good news in the past few days, Ma Shiying seemed extremely excited and immediately said: "Zhenfei, I have something to do here. You can just take a look and leave. I will leave first."
"Farewell to Mr. Ma Ge."
Seeing Ma Shiying's leaving figure, Lu Zhenfei also put down his respectful expression. Then he immediately walked out of the palace door and called several times to the sky imitating animal sounds, as if it was some kind of code word. After a while, there was also a faint sound.
Several animal sounds were obviously in response to him.
After a while, a person quietly climbed over the wall and came to the door.
"grown ups!"
"Have you brought anything?" Lu Zhenfei stepped forward and asked.
"My lord, everything is ready. However, my lord, it seems that Liu Liangzuo already knows about the villain's existence. I'm afraid he will be discovered if he doesn't hurry up." The mysterious man whispered.
"It doesn't matter, you can continue to do your business. I have my own way. Remember to ensure that the two princes come out. Two days later, I will send someone to pick you up at the end of the secret passage. If you can't come out, we can only
As if you have been discovered." Lu Zhenfei changed his appearance and said coldly.
"I understand, little one!"
After that, Lu Zhenfei waved his hand, and the mysterious man left quickly and quietly. When he observed that no one was around, he also left quickly.
…
After Ma Shiying got the clue that he had found Zheng Chenggong, he immediately led his people and rushed there non-stop. As soon as he arrived there, he immediately dismounted and hurriedly wanted to see.
There were already countless soldiers standing around here. As soon as Ma Shiying entered, he saw the weapons used to attack them the day before yesterday. Dozens of bows and arrows, dozens of firecrackers and several things similar to cannons. Looking at these and those
God killed many of his men with weapons, and he couldn't help but feel angry.
This Zheng Chenggong, it’s okay if he doesn’t unite with us, but he actually helps Wu Linzheng and others to resist me! I don’t care who your father is, let’s wait until death!
"Are there any other clues?"
"Sir, there is another corpse in the house. It should be one of theirs. It seems that the body was injured by gunpowder. He was not treated by the doctor in time and died here." A person immediately stepped forward and replied.
"It seems that Zheng Chenggong is not a very good master. His own people are dying here, and he doesn't want to save him." Ma Shiying laughed at first, but then he thought that Zheng Chenggong was not caught, and he still felt a little a little bit.
anger.
"Post their portraits and get a reward of 500 taels! I don't believe you can hide them here and never come out for the rest of your life!"
