Four hundred and seventieth chapters thinking gradually clear
Guo Song sat in the court room and listened quietly to Wang Yue's report.
"Reporting to the envoy, judging from Mao Sanlang's confession, their main task is to monitor the envoy's daily life. The main purpose is to understand whether the envoy has committed any transgressions in his life, whether his food, clothing, housing and transportation are in line with his identity, and whether he has taken any measures.
The pomp of an emperor."
"Then what?" Guo Song asked calmly.
"He said that this is a normal surveillance. Basically, the Jiedushi or Observer of the Foreign Army will be monitored by people sent by Zangjian Pavilion."
Guo Song remembered the experience of Xiaoyu Niang. She was sent to Lingnan by the Hidden Sword Pavilion to monitor Lu Sigong for several years as a maid, and found evidence that Lu Sigong secretly colluded with Tian Chengsi. Mobile version::
It would not be surprising if Zangjian Pavilion also sent people to monitor him like Lu Sigong. Even if he is being monitored, he can accept it. The key is whether the monitoring report is fair.
She and Li Man have already had such a fierce conflict. Will she report a fair surveillance report to the emperor?
Surveillance is just a form, it is not scary, what is scary is the result.
Everything is real, there is a complete monitoring process, a complete reporting process, and a complete system. When all the monitoring processes are convincing, naturally there will be no doubt about the final monitoring report. The monitoring report will omit key points.
A little modification is enough to affect the emperor's view of himself.
"When did they start monitoring me?" Guo Song asked again.
"Since last summer, please draw your attention to a maid named Mei Yu in the mansion."
Guo Song was startled. There was a maid named Mei Yu in his house, who was responsible for serving tea and water to the guests.
"Is there something wrong with this maid?"
"This maid must have been bribed by them. She told them a lot about the situation in the house."
Guo Song nodded, "I understand. You continue to monitor them and keep track of their movements. If there is any important situation, report it to me immediately. It is best to see the content of their report."
"The humble post is already making arrangements. Try to have this Mao Sanlang go to Liangzhou to deliver information."
At dusk, Guo Song returned to his mansion from the government office. As soon as he entered the gate, Butler Wang came up to him and said, "Your Majesty, there is a man from Chang'an who must see you in person. He said he has something important to tell you."
"Did he say who sent him?"
Butler Wang shook his head, "He refused to say anything."
"I understand. Bring him to the outer study to meet me."
Guo Song hesitated for a moment. He originally wanted to ask about Mei Yu's situation, but he restrained himself in the end. Before making the final decision on this matter, he tried not to act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy.
Guo Song came to the outer study room. Not long after, Butler Wang brought a young man in.
Guo Song winked at Butler Wang, who closed the door and retreated.
"Young man, please see Mr. Guo!"
The young man knelt down on one knee and performed a standard military salute.
Seeing that he was very capable, Guo Song smiled and asked, "Who sent you to deliver the message?"
"Envoy Qijun, the villain's master is the head of the Dugu family."
Guo Song suddenly realized that he was originally sent by Duqiu Qiu.
The young man took out a walnut-sized wax ball and presented it to Guo Song, "My master asked me to hand it over to the envoy himself, saying that this matter is important and that the envoy must not take it lightly."
Guo Song pinched open the wax pill, took out the note inside, took a look at it, and asked calmly: "Anything else?"
"There is nothing else. The villain must go back and resume his life immediately."
Guo Song nodded, "Tell your master for me that I, Guo Song, will bear in mind his kindness."
Guo Song immediately asked the housekeeper to take fifty taels of silver and reward it to the young man. He turned and returned to the inner study.
As soon as Guo Song sat down, his wife Xue Tao walked in with a cup of tea.
Xue Tao smiled sweetly and said: "My husband didn't go to see Xiaowei when he came back. This is the first time!"
Guo Song smiled and said, "How are you, little one?"
"She was too naughty during the day and was tired from playing, but now she is sleeping soundly!"
Guo Song took the tea cup and asked, "Do you like that plum jade, madam?"
"It's hard to say, just average!"
Xue Tao was a little strange, "Husband, what happened?"
"She was bribed by the Hidden Sword Pavilion and provided a lot of information about our house to the Hidden Sword Pavilion."
"What!"
Xue Tao raised his eyebrows, "We have always treated her well, how dare she betray me like this?"
Guo Song waved his hand, "This is actually a small matter. Every general of the external commanding force will be monitored by Zangjian Pavilion in various ways. Don't alert her for the time being. What I am encountering now is a bigger trouble. There is someone behind my back."
They attacked me."
"Who is it?" Xue Tao asked in surprise.
"Let me show you this and you will know."
Guo Song handed the note in the wax pill to his wife, "This was just sent to me by Duqiu Qiu. It has solved almost all the answers to the mystery."
Xue Tao opened the note and saw that there was only the word "home" on it, but the word was written very happily. She read it for a long time and wondered, "Husband, what does this mean?"
"This is the meaning of 'Yuan Family'. The head of the Dugu Family was afraid that the note would be intercepted, so he told me in this obscure way that the person who attacked me behind the scenes was the Yuan Family."
Xue Tao was stunned for a long time and asked: "Will it be the Yuan family?"
Guo Song nodded, "Actually, I also thought of the Yuan family. I have many enemies, but with such a powerful force, they can still influence the emperor's decision-making. Only the Yuan family can do it. Kill Yang Yu, hunt down Zhao Xuan, and burn gold."
Shenge, making up nursery rhymes, etc., all these things should be planned by the Yuan family behind the scenes, and Hidden Sword Pavilion is just the executor of the Yuan family."
"If the Yuan family hates my husband so much, will they send assassins?" Xue Tao asked worriedly.
Guo Song pondered for a moment and said: "If they wanted to send assassins, they would have done it long ago. I guess the Yuan family doesn't just want me dead."
"What more do they want?"
"You want me to be completely ruined!"
Guo Song said calmly: "I want me to kneel in front of him and beg for my life, and then he will kill me with his own hands."
"husband"
Xue Tao looked horrified, but was stopped by Guo Song with a wave of his hand. Guo Song sneered and said: "The person who can kill me hasn't been born yet. Don't worry at all. The Yuan family can't do anything to me."
Xue Tao sighed softly, "I'm not afraid of anything, I'm just afraid that my child will be hurt."
Guo Song gently held her in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips, smiling slightly and said: "I'm a little emotional. In fact, the problem is not that serious. I am not fighting against the Yuan family alone.
There are also people who are helping me, like the Dugu family who sent me a letter today. They are the political enemies of the Yuan family. Moreover, I am also the governor of Hexi, with 20,000 troops in hand. Anyone who wants to touch me must be careful."
Xue Tao was relieved a lot by her husband's comfort. She was worried that her child would wake up, so she went back to her room first.
Guo Song saw his wife leaving. He closed the door, extinguished the candle and immersed himself in darkness. His thoughts had never been so clear as now.
Although it was okay for him to comfort his wife, in fact, he knew that an unprecedented crisis was gradually approaching him.
Although I don't know what the relationship between the Yuan family and Li Man is, it is no longer important. It is enough to know that they have formed an alliance.
But the real threat to him is not the Yuan family, but the Emperor Li Shi. His master once told him that the most terrifying thing in the world is the heart of an emperor.
A nursery rhyme full of loopholes made Li Shi decide to send supervisory troops to Hexi. This shows that he no longer trusts himself, or in other words, after Tang and Tibet reached an armistice agreement, he was no longer important in his mind.
Guo Song paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his hands. He began to think about his escape route. He had to plan ahead and make arrangements early. He must not wake up after the knife was placed on his neck. It would be too late to regret it by then.
It's ridiculous that the Yuan family still wants to discredit themselves. Don't they know that history is always written by the strong?
