Li Zhigao asked Chai Jian to leave the city immediately, which was the key to delaying the exposure of the secret of the camp for a few days. But seeing Chai Jian's thick eyebrows frowning slightly, Han Qian guessed that Chai Jian would have a headache on how to mobilize manpower.
Without alarm, or without Shen Yang's permission, even in Taowu, Chai Jian could not directly requisition the military households of the camp. At this time, the elite of the guard camp must keep an eye on the movements around the Hou Mansion. Obviously there was no way to mobilize the troops from the guard camp out of the city.
Han Qian suspected Li Zhigao, Chai Jian and the others, and had secretly transferred all the men and horses who had been planned to be incorporated into the Secret Cao Yousi into the city, but he did not expect that such a fuss would happen today. In order to avoid attracting the attention of the secret agents of the Zifangsi, Han Qian was in a hurry, It is possible that these people have been dispersed.
Chai Jian went out of the city at this time and wanted to ambush the secret room sent by Zhao Mingting outside the camp, but there was no one in his hands.
"If Mr. Chai is short of manpower, Fan Dahei and Zhao Wuji can follow Mr. Chai out of the city. The Zuo Si Military Room has gathered seventy or eighty people in the Qiuhu Mountain Villa!" Han Qian said.
"Okay." Chai Jian nodded and immediately asked Zhao Wuji. Fan Dahei followed him out of the backyard archery range.
Secret Cao Zuosi has seventy or eighty experts at Qiuhushan Villa, who can indeed respond to emergencies.
Anyway, if any suspicious person dares to infiltrate, he will be executed as an enemy without leaving any survivors alive, and the corpse will be destroyed and no trace will be left. There is no need to worry about the newly recruited manpower of Secret Cao Zuosi being disobedient or becoming suspicious.
Chai Jian took Fan Dahei and Zhao Wuji away in a hurry. Han Qian said to Li Zhigao:
"I was lucky to be here today, otherwise Miss Yao and Chun Shisanniang would have been targeted by Zhao Mingting and Wang Wenqian, and the consequences would have been disastrous. However, even if I escaped by chance, Yuhou sent guards to forcefully enter Rouge Shop to cover our withdrawal, and Zhao Mingting If you catch the guy from the rouge shop and interrogate him, you will inevitably find some clues. The night banquet is about to begin, Yu Hou can't stay here for too long, Miss Yao, Chun Shisanniang, you stay here first, and you will enter the rouge preserves. After I got married, Zhao Ting'er asked Zhao Ting'er to copy down who he met and what he said. After Yu Hou has dealt with today's night banquet, he can come over and sort it out together to see if there are any mistakes!"
Yao Xishui and Chun Shisanniang are famous again in Jinling, but there are almost no female relatives in the city who recognize them. And the waiters and shopkeepers of Rouge Shop are not qualified to be chic in occasions like Wanhong Mansion that require spending a lot of money, so they are very lucky. were not directly recognized by anyone.
However, Yao Xishui and Chun Shisanniang came to Ningxiang Tower today because they wanted to buy this rouge shop, so they would definitely leave some clues in their words.
Maybe the shopkeepers and clerks of Ningxiang Tower are not aware of this, but if they are caught and interrogated by Zhao Mingting, Han Qian cannot guarantee that Zhao Mingting will not hear any problems - and this matter is also likely to affect Zuo Sijie Yanzhi The shop has an established plan for infiltration.
Han Qian asked Zhao Ting'er to help Yao Xishui, and Chun Shisanniang recorded everything she said and did when she entered the Rouge Shop today, in order to conduct a risk assessment and then see if it was necessary to implement certain remedial measures.
No matter how good-hearted Yao Xishui was, he was still a little frightened at this moment. Seeing Han Qian's gesticulating at this moment, he did not feel disgusted, but tried his best to recall whether there were any words left in Rouge Shop that could be related to Wanhonglou. , and at the same time I couldn’t help but think about Han Qian’s completely different makeup skills.
Han Qian, Li Zhigao, and Li Chong went to the front yard to deal with the guests first - Han Qian could hide, Li Zhigao, and Li Chong, as the third prince's brother-in-law and second brother-in-law, and also the main assistant generals and officials of the Marquis Mansion and Longque General Mansion. You can't get away for too long.
"If something like this happens again in Wanhonglou, I'm afraid we won't be as lucky as today!" Han Qian walked into the passage and said to Li Zhigao in a low voice.
Han Qian still can't see through Wan Honglou's true roots, but in recent years, except for the Xinchang Hou Mansion, Wan Honglou's other forces have been mainly lurking in the dark, and they even have their spies in the palace. It can be seen that The main specialty of Chuwanhonglou is conspiracy, but when it comes to controlling the corresponding hard power, it seems to be more than capable.
Shen Yang was able to preside over the construction of the Taowu Jitunying Military Mansion. In addition to Shen Yang's long history, the main reason was that Xinchanghou Mansion and Wanhonglou could not find anyone who could replace Shen Yang.
Otherwise, they would never want their huge reputation to fall on Shen Yang, who is not on the same side as them, and may even stand firmly on the opposite side after their conspiracy is exposed.
This situation before was a good thing for Han Qian, and it highlighted his role, but considering the strong opponents he faced, such disadvantages were really scary.
Han Qian usually has no contact with Xinchang Hou Li Pu, and the black veil woman has never taken off the black veil in front of him. However, among those who have learned the core secrets, Li Zhigao is the most general-like, so there are some Han Qian only spoke to Li Zhigao.
Li Zhigao frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "Zhigao copied a copy of "Yongjian Pian Commentary" from His Highness. It's really every word. When today's incident is over, I hope you can help Chai Jian sort out Yousi's work. "
There is really no sense of copyright in this world! Han Qian sneered.
Of course, Han Qian didn't really want to dictate what work to do for Chai Jian. He just thought that whether Chai Jian or Yao Xishui, the right department he was in charge of would be the same as Wan Honglou in the past, only responsible for cultivating elites who could absolutely control it. Secret spies carry out in-depth, single-line contact, such as lurking, bribery or coercion, while regular intelligence reconnaissance and special operations are all left to Zuo Si.
Not to mention the black-shaded woman, Li Pu and others from the Xinchang Marquis Mansion had made arrangements earlier. Wanhonglou had cultivated so many celebrities in the past few years and married civil and military officials as concubines. Han Qian believed that Li Zhigao did not want to be affected by Yousi's operation. A mistake caused so many years of achievements to be destroyed in one fell swoop.
Han Qian expressed his thoughts, and Li Zhigao pondered for a moment and said: "I have no right to decide this matter. I will tell my father and wife..."
Li Chong stood behind, curled his lips and said nothing.
Han Qian thought to himself that everything was decided by the Marquis of Xinchang, Lipu, and the woman in black gauze. He wondered how the concubine felt in the palace.
Except for a few people who were able to enter the main hall and have a separate banquet on the floor with the third prince Yang Yuanpu, Xinchang Hou Li Pu and others, most of the guests and friends ate at the Eight Immortals table for eight people in the courtyard; today there are planned to be 60 tables in the front courtyard During the banquet, Han Qian, Li Zhigao, and Li Chong walked to the front courtyard and saw that the place was already crowded.
Li Zhigao and Li Chong were going to the main hall to socialize - there was also a wine table belonging to Li Zhigao in the main hall to accompany the banquet, so Han Qian wanted to hide in an inconspicuous corner and sit down.
"Han Qian, Han Qian! Where have you been all day? I went to look for you at noon. Your old slave said that you had gone out a long time ago, but I didn't see you even when I ran to Xinchang Hou Mansion and here.
Shadow, where did you and your little slave go to have fun today?"
Just as Han Qian was about to go into the east wing, he heard Feng Yi shouting loudly from behind. He turned around and saw that in addition to Feng Yi and Kong Xirong, two "foolish friends", Feng Yi's father Feng Wenlan was accompanying Wang Wenqian, Zhao Mingting and others.
, also walking here from another courtyard.
Wang Wenqian's wife, Wang Jun, has not yet gone to the inner house to attend the banquet specially set for the female relatives. At this time, she is standing next to her father Wang Wenqian. She should also know about the canceled engagement. She originally listened to her father, Feng Wenlan and others with a smile.
As he spoke, his face became a little stiff when Feng Yi called Han Qian's name.
Han Qian was also smiling bitterly in his heart. If the Wang family had canceled his engagement with Wang Jun, he could still blame the Wang family for bullying him into being a "poor young man". However, the Wang family pressed for the marriage, but it was his father who took the initiative to cancel the engagement. This is
Embarrassed.
Han Qian's eyes fell on Wang Jun for a while, and when he saw Wang Wenqian's eyes turning suspicious, he suddenly woke up, secretly feeling that he probably didn't recognize Wang Wenqian at this time, and Wang Jun and his daughter were the ones who almost did it.
When the flaw was exposed, he narrowed his eyes again and looked at Wang Jun from beginning to end several times before closing his eyes and bowing to Feng Wenlan: "I have met Mr. Feng."
"Hmm." Feng Wenlan just snorted lightly and had no intention of introducing Wang Wenqian and Zhao Mingting to Han Qian. His eyes even turned cold when he looked at his son Feng Yi, as if he complained that Feng Yi had greeted Han Qian too affectionately just now.
Han Qian smiled slightly in his heart.
Ever since his father made a big fuss at the court meeting to drive away the hungry people, Feng Wenlan had never visited the house in person, and had never sent family members over to express his congratulations during the holidays.
Not to mention, he ordered Niu Erdan, the evil slave of the old house, to be shot five days ago. Now all the officials in the city should know about the big joke of internal strife in his old Han family, right?
After being warned by his father's eyes, Feng Yi smiled awkwardly at Han Qian.
Han Qian didn't mind either, and stood aside to let Feng Wenqian, Wang Wenqian, Zhao Mingting and others pass first.
He noticed that the eyes of others looking at him and Wang Jun were not different. It seems that the engagement was only a verbal agreement between his father and former Prime Minister Wang Jixiong. Outsiders didn't know about it yet, so he thought it was good this way, as he would be less embarrassed.
Some faces.
Although Wang Wenqian was mentally strong, he walked past Han Qian calmly, as if he didn't even think about the fact that Han Qian almost became his son-in-law. However, Wang Jun passed by and couldn't help but glance sideways at Han Qian.
She glanced at her, but at this moment Han Qian's eyes were staring straight at her, his face turned red, he forced a smile and bowed, before he caught up with her father in a panic.
He smiled in a panic, but with an indescribable charm. Han Qian's heart moved slightly, thinking that if his father was not so upright and took the initiative to break off the engagement, he and Wang Jun might not have gotten married by mistake.
Bad thing.
Han Qian thought the matter was over just like that. Unexpectedly, Feng Wenlan and others suddenly stopped in front of him, and one by one, like ears of wheat blown by the wind, they leaned forward and saluted. He looked over, but he didn't know that Yang En
At some point, I walked side by side to the courtyard here with Shen Yang.
Feng Wenlan was the Minister of Household Affairs, and his rank was much higher than that of Yang En, the Minister of Right School at that time. However, his rank did not absolutely determine his status. For example, Wang Wenqian was a Chuzhou official. The secretary in charge of the Defense Envoy was only on the fifth rank, while Zhao Mingting was on the sixth rank when he became the governor of the Privy Council. The power and status they hold must be lower than Feng Wenlan?
Not to mention the former Marquis of Liyang Yang En who dared to fight even in front of Emperor Tianyou.
No matter how strong Zhao Mingting was, no matter how rebellious he was, he could only obediently follow Feng Wenlan, Wang Wenqian and others in bowing in front of Yang En.
Seeing Yang En and Shen Yang appear together, Han Qian was worried that Shen Yang's contact with Zhao Mingting would inadvertently leak information about the camp, but he couldn't force his way through it.
Han Qian didn't expect that when he was about to leave, Yang En waved to him:
"Han Qian, Han Qian, come here. I'm looking for you everywhere. Where are you hiding today? The third prince is getting married. You are working in the prince's house and you dare to be lazy and cheat. You are very brave. ?”
Han Qian screamed in his heart that he was unlucky. If everyone who met him yelled like this, Wang Wenqian and Zhao Mingting might become suspicious even if they couldn't see any flaws before.
