"It's extraordinary. People in Goguryeo think that Kim and Hyun Bin are worthless, but is he really worthless?
He is the former prime minister and knows many secrets of Goguryeo..."
"So what if we know more secrets? Aren't Kim and Hyun Bin unwilling to tell us?"
"I don't want to say it now, but who knows if I will say it in the future?
Moreover... Kim and Hyun Bin are indeed loyal, but does Goguryeo know his loyalty?"
Ouyang Bufan was not an ignorant person. After listening to Muchuan's advice, he finally understood.
Precisely because Goguryeo regarded Kim and Hyun Bin as abandoned sons, they naturally would not trust him.
Thinking according to this logic, the people of Goguryeo will definitely be on guard against Kim and Hyun Bin leaking national intelligence. For this reason, even if they regard Kim and Hyun Bin as worthless, they will do everything possible to prevent him from falling into the hands of the Tang Dynasty.
Ouyang Bufan: "I see... Lord Muchuan, my admiration for you is as great as the ocean! You are so powerful!"
"Come on, you kid, stop trying to flatter me."
Muchuan Yang raised his hand and slapped Ouyang Bufan on the head, and then asked, "Do you know Wangyue Dagong?
Did Kim and Hyun Bin mention this person just now?"
"have no idea……"
"If you don't know, go investigate, go to the Ministry of Justice and ask about the situation, and tell me everything about Mochizuki Dagong tomorrow!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Time passed, the white horse passed by, and at noon the next day, Muchuan came to the Hubu official residence wearing official robes.
The official residence was as busy as ever, but it was much better than before. At least it was not as tense as before, and all the officials were as nervous as if they were about to go to the battlefield.
To put it bluntly, this is all because of sufficient manpower!
Muchuan was drinking tea and eating cakes in the inner hall of the official residence. Next to him was Ouyang Bufan, who was also drinking tea and eating cakes with Muchuan. He looked comfortable and enjoyed himself very much.
Muchuan rolled his eyes at this time and asked: "Bufan, have you finished all the things you entrusted to you yesterday?
Why are you so free to drink tea with me here?"
After Muchuan and Ouyang Bufan went to the palace yesterday, they visited Li Chengqian and explained the reason. Only then could they successfully save Jin and Xuan Bin's lives.
By the time the two of them came out of the palace, the sun had already set and it was dark, so they returned to their mansion early to rest.
Logically speaking, time is short, and the things Muchuan entrusted to Ouyang Bufan yesterday should not have been completed yet.
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Bufan flashed his front teeth and smiled brightly: "Mr. Muchuan, you underestimate me, don't you?
Isn't it just to investigate the matter of Mochizuki Dakyong?
The investigation has already been completed."
"Is the investigation finished?
So fast! You didn’t lie to me!”
Muchuan said doubtfully.
"Oh, I can't lie to anyone, but I dare not lie to the wise and powerful Lord Muchuan! I didn't lie to you, I didn't lie to you!"
Ouyang Bufan handed over a stack of paper.
Muchuan checked the results and found that it recorded the story of Wangyue Dagong.
Wang Yue Da Gong is the eldest son of the famous "Mang Yue" family in Goguryeo. He has an extraordinary memory, is rich in knowledge, and is full of poems and books. He was nicknamed "child prodigy" in his early years. When he became an adult, he served as an errand in the Ministry of Household Affairs in the government of Goguryeo. He is now Goguryeo.
Prime Minister of the left country.
Among them, the famous general Wang Yue Yihu of Goguryeo was the younger brother of Wang Yue Dagong, and the queen of Goguryeo Wang Yuebing was his sister.
After reading the information about Wang Yue Dagong, Muchuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The Wang Yue family is quite powerful in Goguryeo. Their children are either high-ranking officials or powerful generals..."
"Yes, it is said that when the late emperor of Goguryeo started his business, the Wangyue family helped a lot."
"Hehe, that's easy to handle!"
It can be seen that the Mochizuki family is a big family, so their blood relationship should be very deep.
If it is true, as Kim and Hyun Bin said, that the next peace negotiation representatives sent by Goguryeo are from the Wangyue tribe, then wouldn't the "Wangyue Tiger" currently detained in Chang'an City be of great use!
"Hey, Bufan, let's go talk to Mochizuki Yihu now."
Wang Yue Yihu was previously detained in Chang'an City for assassinating Li Shimin. He was probably in an underground prison in the imperial city. Muchuan planned to go and meet him.
Ouyang Bufan stopped Muchuan: "Wait a minute, sir, I'm afraid you don't have to go find him."
"Why?"
"Mochizuki Yihu is dead. Don't you know the news?"
Hearing this, Muchuan was so shocked that his body stiffened, and he felt like a bolt from the blue. Why did such a good man like Mochizuki Yihu die?
its not right!
Later, when I asked the reason, I found out that it was Li Shimin who killed him! Because Wang Yue Yihu and Kim and Hyun Bin jointly carried out the assassination plan, Li Shimin was angered. In order to kill chickens and scare monkeys to establish the dignity of the royal family, Li Shimin killed Wang Yue Yihu a month ago.
killed.
In fact, Jin Hexuan Bin himself should also die. His sin was more serious than Mochizuki Yihu. If Muchuan hadn't taken the initiative to write a letter to the emperor, he would have died too.
Now sitting on the Grand Master's chair, Muchuan exclaimed and exclaimed: "He is actually dead... Your Majesty is such an idiot! He actually killed such a useful chess piece as Wangyue Yihu."
Ouyang Bufan waved his hands and feet in a panic: "Hey, sir, be careful what you say. How can you call His Majesty a fool? Even if His Majesty is a fool, you can't say it out loud."
"Don't you yourself say that His Majesty is a fool?"
"I...I didn't! I just assumed that His Majesty was an idiot!"
Just as Muchuan and Ouyang Bufan were arguing with each other, a faint voice came from next to them.
"what are you guys saying?
Your Majesty is an idiot?"
The person who spoke was obviously Mo Zhu!
Mo Zhu's eyes widened, and he secretly wondered what the nonsense Muchuan and Ouyang Bufan were talking about. But if they knew that insulting His Majesty was a crime of beheading, wouldn't these two people be afraid of death?
At that time, Muchuan and Ouyang Bufan immediately covered each other's mouths with both hands, signaling that they should stop talking nonsense. After all, Mo Zhu is a rigid person. If this silly boy goes to complain, Muchuan and Ouyang Bufan will be killed.
Two people were harmed.
Muchuan soon changed the subject: "Oh, is it Mo Zhu?
Is there something going on?"
"Sir...you and Bufan look so idle?
You actually have time to chew your tongue here."
"not bad."
"I came to see you this time because I want to discuss the salary expenditure with you."
Mo Zhu then handed over a roster with a blue brocade cover.
Muchuan took a look and found that these were the lists of newly promoted officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs, most of whom had just been promoted through the imperial examination system.
It's just that Muchuan didn't understand what Mo Zhu meant by giving this roster.
And also discuss salary?
Mo Zhu did not mince words and said bluntly: "Our household department has recruited too many people! The salary is also set too high!"
