Qin Keqing quickly came to Jia Ke, tidied his clothes, and then whispered in his ear: "Uncle, someone outside is looking for you and says there is something important."
Jia Ke immediately frowned. It was so late, and someone came to report something to him. I'm afraid it wasn't a trivial matter, otherwise it wouldn't matter if he waited until tomorrow.
"Who came to deliver the news?"
Qin Keqing whispered in Jia Ke's ear: "Uncle, it was Liu Yu who sent someone to tell you that he has something important to report to you."
Although Qin Keqing is the mistress of Wuyang Hou Mansion, she does not know the existence of Wei Kun. Jia Ke also hides many things from Qin Keqing because although Jia Ke has a good relationship with Qin Keqing and his wife, he still has some doubts about her life experience.
.
Jia Ke heard that Liu Yu had something to report and knew that the matter was not trivial. Otherwise, he would not have been so reckless, so he immediately left the inner courtyard and went directly to the outer study.
After arriving at the outer study room, Liu Yu had already been waiting for him at the door. As soon as he saw him coming, he quickly stepped forward and said: "Uncle, the mouths of the dozen or so people arrested were pried open by Ai Baoquan. Now Wei Kun
I'm waiting outside, waiting for the uncle's summons."
After Jia Ke entered the study, he sat on the Taishi chair and kept knocking on the table. It seemed that this time the matter was not serious, otherwise Wei Kun would not have reported it to him in such a hurry.
"Go and bring Wei Kun over." Jia Ke ordered Liu Yu.
After a long time, Liu Yu led Wei Kun into the study.
As soon as Wei Kun entered the study, Jia Ke saw that his face was full of seriousness. Without the naive smile before, not to mention Wei Kun's sullen face was still very scary.
The two came to Jia Ke and saluted together, then stood on both sides waiting for Jia Ke's questions.
"It's so late. You've got some important news. You're so anxious. You want to see me now."
"Uncle, the news this time is not good. The emperor is planning to take action against you." Wei Kun said with an anxious look on his face.
Jia Ke was stunned when he heard this. Now the emperor is at an absolute disadvantage. To attack him now is to seek death. No one with any sense would do this.
However, Jia Ke then thought about it and realized that he would have jumped over the wall if he could not save the emperor. You must know that in times of despair, people can do anything. Perhaps the emperor saw that there was no hope of regaining his power, so he took this extreme step.
"Tell me the specific situation. I don't believe that the emperor is going to attack us now. At most, it's just the people below who make their own decisions." Jia Ke still doesn't believe that the emperor can be so stupid and want to fight with him now.
Falling out. Jia Ke wants to know how rational the current emperor is, and it would be impossible to want him to lose his reason.
Wei Kun hurriedly took out the confessions of Ai Baoquan and the spies who were monitoring Jia Ke, and handed them to Jia Ke with both hands.
Jia Ke took it over and looked at it carefully. It didn't matter at first. But by the end, his face was filled with anger.
The secret agent confessed very clearly that their main task was to monitor Jia Ke's every move. Jia Ke had expected this, and there was no surprise. But what followed made Jia Ke unable to let go. It turned out that the superiors had no control over this matter.
The matter was carefully arranged. If Jia Ke went out alone one day out of curiosity and came to one of them's stall, he would immediately start the action and everyone would take action together, making sure to take Jia Ke's life.
Also, if there is no good opportunity, then if necessary, they will hold hostage the female family members of Wuyang Hou Mansion, and then force Jia Ke to meet, and then assassinate Jia Ke if necessary. Even if Jia Ke cannot be killed, several Wuyang Hou Mansion will be killed.
The woman made Jia Ke unhappy.
Jia Ke couldn't bear it now. He immediately threw the book to the ground and started shooting.
He took just two steps in the house and thought about sending an order to the army near the capital to blockade the capital and surround the palace. If he came, he could strike first.
But Jia Ke slowly calmed down again. The matter was handled so hastily, which was probably not the emperor's spy style.
Thinking about it, the emperor's spy has been around for so many years. How could he be caught by Jia Ke's people so easily, and finally ask for such confidential information. This time, the planning was so crude, it didn't look like anything at all.
Planned by an espionage organization that has been operating secretly for decades.
The most important thing is that these spies are so amateur, even the housekeeper of Wuyanghou Mansion can see that they are suspicious. They are not spying on Wuyanghou Mansion, they are clearly bringing food to themselves.
The suspicions in this are really too strong. If Jia Ke wants to rely on these people to assassinate him, Jia Ke will not believe it.
Jia Ke sat on the chair again, knocked on the wooden table with his hand and thought for a while. I'm afraid someone wanted to use his hand to get rid of the emperor, and then the fisherman would benefit.
Jia Ke thought about who it was that wanted to take advantage of him and the emperor. The most likely person was King Zhongshun, but King Zhongshun was just a glorious prince now, and his subordinates didn't have much power now, and the emperor had no respect for Zhongshun.
On the surface, the king was obedient, but in fact he looked after him very closely. You must know that King Zhongshun almost became the crown prince. Under such tight control, it is unlikely that King Zhongshun would have such great power.
So who is the one who has a grudge against the emperor? He suddenly thought of Qin Keqing, whose identity was really mysterious.
The most likely ones are Qin Keqing's father's tribe. These people have been hiding for so many years. Now they see that Jia Ke has mastered the military power near the capital and married Qin Keqing, so they set up this trap. I'm afraid the assassination of him is a fake and they want to
It's true that it pisses him off.
Now Jia Ke's suspicion of Qin Keqing has reached its peak. Is this person on his bed hiding something from him? Unexpectedly, Jia Ke felt frightened. He was really afraid that one day he would wake up in the middle of the night and find Qin Keqing.
He took the dagger and stabbed himself hard.
But Jia Ke quickly suppressed this thought. Although Qin Keqing had some abilities, she still couldn't do it given her personality and age if she wanted to direct such a large game without revealing her identity.
After Jia Ke put all these doubts behind his mind, he thought about whether he should take advantage of this opportunity to seize the country, but finally gave up? Although he had the strength, he had no reputation. In a situation where he was already in control of the power.
Next, Jia Ke still wants to leave himself as perfect a reputation as possible.
Besides, the civil servants in the imperial court are still very loyal to the emperor. Even if they seize the country by themselves, they may not be stable in the local area. It is better to wait for a while, and wait until the emperor's virtue declines before taking action.
.
Even if he cannot be like Zhu Yuanzhang, who has the reputation of being the most righteous person in history, he cannot be like Wang Mang, who has been reviled through the ages.
Besides, he can afford to wait now. Seeing that the emperor is now making stupid moves and even thinking of withholding taxes and money, as long as there is a little turmoil in the country, it may be uncontrollable in the future.
When the emperor's reputation is completely ruined, it's time for him to take action.
Jia Ke calmed down again and said to Wei Kun: "This information came too easily. I think there is fraud in it. You go back and continue to torture those people. I don't think they are the emperor's people. They look like someone else."
What kind of power does it have? Find out for me who it is that wants to borrow our power."
Wei Kun has some reaction now. He has been following Jia Ke and knows all about Jia Ke's strength. If he wants to assassinate Jia Ke, let alone the few people outside, he will do it ten times more.
They were all killed by Jia Ke alone.
"Uncle, I was negligent this time. I panicked as soon as I got the news. Please punish me." Wei Kun hurriedly stepped forward to apologize. This time, he was indeed too reckless and did not think carefully.
Jia Ke waved his hands nonchalantly and said, "Every time you learn something, you will gain wisdom. In the future, you should think more about things when you encounter them. Some situations may be true or false, and you must extract the true information from them."
Wei Kun was finally relieved now, but he hated the dozen or so secret agents who were imprisoned in his heart. If it weren't for them, how could they have made such a big fool of themselves in front of the uncle. This time when he goes back, he must treat himself well.
Only by taking care of them can you relieve the hatred in your heart.
"Uncle, do you need to take this opportunity to clean up those emperor's spies in Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion?" Liu Yu asked worriedly from the side.
What Liu Yu is worried about now is that this time is just a false alarm. If the spies from the Rongguo Mansion suddenly attack Jia Ke or Jia Ke's family next time, Wei Kun may not be able to stop it in time.
"Wei Kun, what do you mean? Can you control these spies in the house?" Jia Ke still wanted to ask Wei Kun's opinion.
"Don't worry, uncle. The four or five spies in Rongguo Mansion are the same. I have placed two or three people around each of them to watch. Their every move is under my control. They don't have the ability to do harm.
The uncle's family." Wei Kun was quite confident about this, after all, he had arranged it for so long.
"In this case, don't alert the enemy. It may be useful to keep them at a critical moment." Jia Ke said quietly.
Speaking of Rongguo Mansion, Wei Kun thought of Ningguo Mansion again, "Uncle, I have made arrangements for Rongguo Mansion. I don't know if Ningguo Mansion needs to arrange some manpower."
Jia Ke smiled coldly, "They have no power over there. Even if they have a few spies, they are probably just monitoring. It's nothing important. No matter what they do."
There was no need for spies in the Ningguo Mansion. The gossip there had already spread throughout the Jia Mansion. In the original Dream of Red Mansions, the gossip between Jia Zhen and Qin Keqing spread throughout the Jia Mansion. This time, Jia Zhen did not let Jia Ke
Disappointed, Jia Zhen and his daughter-in-law Xu had an unclear reputation.
But this Xu family did not hang themselves like Qin Keqing. Now they are living well between father and son Jia Zhen and Jia Rong. Even Jia Zhen's serious daughter-in-law, You family, has to step aside.
Now this Xu family can be said to have taken control of the Ningguo Mansion and is enjoying life.
After Wei Kun heard Jia Ke's words, he stood aside silently and said nothing. However, with his cleverness, he also heard Jia Ke's dissatisfaction with Ningguo Mansion.
