"Rest easy. Su Mo got up and pressed Zhang Yue down, and said with a smile: "I naturally have a reason to say that I want to move out, and between you and my brothers, what should I not offend." ”

Zhang Yue snorted angrily: "Then you can tell me a big reason, and see if my father may agree." ”

Su Mo shook his head with a smile and refilled the tea for him, and then said slowly: "I came back this time, it was really too eye-catching." Not only did I add rice balls and the sun, but also the soldiers of the Meng family who followed me all the way back from the bloody battle. These are all things that I need to be placed in good places. If it's just my family, it doesn't matter. Brother Yue, have you thought about it, will those soldiers of the Meng family get used to it? Also, after all, you are the martial arts of the dynasty, and there is suddenly such a group of veterans of a hundred battles in the family, and you are still the descendants of the former Qin, if you are targeted by someone with a heart, it is not easy to speak. Therefore, if you still want to help me, listen to me. Otherwise, don't help me, just dealing with those open guns and arrows is enough for you and your uncle, and it is not good for us David. Not to mention, just for Your Majesty, at least on this surface, you have to do enough face-saving work, do you think this is the reason?"

As soon as Su Mo said this, Zhang Yue stopped talking. The Meng family returned with Su Mo this time, and there were about 300 people. When I entered the city today, although Uncle An, the steward of the Cheng family, had arranged the identity of the caravan guard early, the smell of blood that had just come down from the battlefield could not be concealed from those who had a heart.

As Summer said, if he is the only one who can talk about it, it must be at home. But if there is suddenly such a group of elite soldiers, the British government, which is a family of martial artists, will not be easy to explain once it is criticized by others.

It's not that just a few hundred soldiers can pose any threat, but I'm afraid that some people will make waves and overexplain, even if the emperor is generous, I'm afraid he will be unhappy.

And once the British Duke has a rift in the emperor's heart, it will be very inconvenient to help Su Mo with his identity.

Thinking so, he finally sighed, nodded and said, "Okay, just follow my brother." However, my brother still needs to explain this matter to my father. ”

Su Mo nodded, "That's nature." ”

said, and said: "Also, you have to pay more attention these days to help me choose a group of craftsmen." Well, no matter what line it is, such as iron, wood, kiln porcelain, and so on. Now that we have a foothold in this capital, we must always have our own business. Whether it is self-sufficiency or expansion, it is inseparable from these. We should be cautious in this matter, and the first thing is to be reliable and faithful. When recruiting, clearly inform the other party that we will pay the salary, one or two silver per person per month. If you do well in the future, there will be another reward. ”

Sun Sihai nodded and said, "This is easy, don't worry." It's really not good, I'll go back to our Wuqing side in person to recruit. At that time, Gongzi benefited countless displaced people, but there are many people over there who are still grateful for Gongzi's kindness and are willing to serve Gongzi to death. ”

Zhang Yue also said: "Well, I can find out through the Ministry of Industry in this regard." Many craftsmen are not strictly controlled over there. We give such a high salary, there must be many people who are willing to come. As for loyalty and reliability, my brother doesn't have to worry, our British government still has some means in this capital. ”

Su Mo nodded and said, "That's fine." Well, the last thing......" Speaking of this, he paused slightly, turned his head to look at Zhang Yue, and said softly: "Don't participate in the mansion openly, just secretly give some assistance at the right time." The main one is responsible for the four seas. ”

Zhang Yue listened to his cautiousness, and couldn't help but wonder: "What is the matter?"

Su Mo was silent for a while, and said: "Keep an eye on people! Keep an eye on a few people for me, one is Lin Tingyu in the Ministry of Rites, one is Hua Xu in the Ministry of Households, and Fu Han, a member of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is ......."

Speaking of this, Su Mo paused before he said in a deep voice: "Liu Jian, and Li Dongyang!"

Zhang Yue was shocked, staring at the first assistant and the second assistant of the court?! This is not a joke, once it is discovered, it will immediately be a catastrophe. This matter is not something that the British government is not willing to participate in openly, otherwise if it is leaked slightly, it will definitely not be a matter involving individuals alone, but a duel between the entire two groups of martial arts and civilian officials.

Zhang Yue was really completely sobered up at this time, and his brain was sweating.

Sun Sihai was also a little trembling, but since he had already boarded Su Mo's ship, there was no way to retreat, so he could only close his eyes and go to the dark.

When he gritted his teeth, he nodded heavily and said, "I must serve my son to the death." ”

Su Mo raised his eyebrows, waved his hand and said, "It's not that serious, what do you say about not dying." It's just that you sent someone to pay more attention to their movements, and they didn't say that they were going to assassinate the king. As long as we are careful, even if we are detected, we will not admit it, and no one will be able to enter into our sin. ”

Sun Sihai breathed a sigh of relief and wiped a cold sweat. But I heard Su Mo say again: "In addition to keeping an eye on these people, you also have to secretly investigate the whereabouts of a person." Once you find this person, immediately try to control it, be sure not to let him escape, and do not leak the slightest rumor. ”

Sun Sihai immediately hung his heart in his throat, and his voice was a little dry: "I don't know what the son wants to take...... Who is it?"

Su Mo stood up, paced back and forth in the room for a few steps, and only said in a deep voice when he stopped: "This person is just a little-known person, it should be called Jiang Ying." This is a prisoner, probably belonging to the side of Beizhili. Well, look it up for yourselves. ”

Sun Sihai's face was puzzled, and the prisoner Jiang Ying, what kind of immortal is this? But because of this, he was completely relieved. Sure enough, it's a little-known one, let alone taking it, even if you kill it secretly, it's nothing.

Just now, he was shocked by Su Mo's previous arrangement, and said that this master wanted to do something to which court official, and he almost didn't let Sun Sihai pee. If you really want to do that, it will be tantamount to rebellion. Although he had already made up his mind to follow Su Mo, if it really came to the matter of rebellion, Boss Sun really didn't have that psychological preparation.

At this time, when he heard that he was just a little person who had never heard of a name, he was suddenly resurrected with blood on the spot, and he promised that there was no problem and promised to complete the task.

Zhang Yue next to him was thoughtful, and suddenly said: "The Jiang Ying that my brother said, isn't it the prisoner who wrote a few days ago and impeached the scholars Liu Jian and Li Dongyang for blocking the way of speech and tying up power?"

Su Mo's eyes flashed and said, "Yes, this is the person." Brother Yue also knows him?"

Zhang Yue nodded and said, "Yes, I heard my father talk about it." Then he wondered, "What is my brother looking for this person?"

Su Mo shook his head and didn't answer immediately, and only after a deep sigh did he say: "This person should be extremely crucial, find him! I'm just afraid he's ...... now," and he stopped suddenly.

Zhang Yue and Sun Sihai were slightly stunned, and then they all reacted. Zhang Yue lost his voice and said, "Brother is saying...... Isn't it, why not?"

Su Mo shook his head and said nothing more. He combined some clues recorded by later generations, and then he thought of this person. But at this time, it seems to be illogical, and how can he explain it without evidence?

Moreover, there are many versions of the fraud case in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, even in later generations, but there are also different versions of the truth, and there is no authoritative statement. Except for Tang Bohu, who left a famous name through the ages, everything is hidden in the fog of history and is confusing.

Originally, Su Mo only regarded this incident as an independent event. However, when he was really in this time and space and experienced a series of events, he suddenly had a faint realization: behind all these events, there seemed to be an invisible chain that connected everything together......

That night, the three of them talked secretly for a long time before they went back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, Su Mo woke up to a commotion. Listening to the laughter of Wei'er and a group of children outside the window, accompanied by the crisp birdsong from time to time, I couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth in my heart.

This kind of peaceful life that has been lost for a long time seems to be far away from itself. Until today, he revisited it again, so that he was a little lazy and didn't want to leave this warm bed.

Eventually, however, he managed to get up. There are a lot of things waiting for him today, and everything can't be delayed.

On the emperor's side, he could ignore it, after all, he ran back alone in advance. If you take the initiative to catch up, you will be brain-dead. Only on the day when the large army of the mission returns will he go to meet the king.

As for what Wang Yi said yesterday, it seems that there is really another promoter at this time. Otherwise, you don't have to wait until this morning, there will be a brocade army breaking into the door last night. As for who is behind it, Su Mo doesn't have to think about it, when the time comes, this pusher will take the initiative to jump out.

No one came to the door last night, which means that the emperor acquiesced to his actions. It's just that why the emperor indulged him so much is a little strange.

But if you can't figure it out, you don't have to think about it, the so-called car to the mountain before there must be a road, the boat to the bridge head is naturally straight, everything will be natural.

In addition to this, Meng Jian must also have an explanation. It is impossible for the Meng family army to stay in Beijing all the time, after all, Ningxia is their home. The children of the Meng family must also go back over there to ensure their interests over there.

This group of Mengjia children only came to help him, but they didn't sell themselves to him. But what he wants to leave behind are those who are crippled. There are about two hundred people in this group, and if they are pushed to the Meng family regardless of it, although the Meng family will not say anything, but he will not be able to pass the level in his heart.

Moreover, he also needs a group of loyal people to help him gain a foothold in the capital. These disabled veterans were all killed with his corpses and blood, and their loyalty is absolutely no problem, and they have solved the problem of manpower, so why not do it.

The affairs of the Meng family need to be solved, and then the ones that I studied with Sun Sihai and Zhang Yue last night need to be implemented concretely.

Also, I have to talk to Zhang Mao and Zhang Wenmo separately. Yesterday I was patronizing and drinking, and I couldn't sit down and talk seriously, whether it was public or private, today must be over.

There is a more important matter, that is, the Cheng family's business. I have already told Uncle An yesterday that after settling down today, I will officially visit the door. Not to mention the marriage contract between the two families, just because Sister Cheng helped him in the border area, this friendship also made him unable to sit idly by and ignore the affairs of the Cheng family.

Cheng Minzheng is now dying, and in historical records, he died in pain before he lasted two months. In the historical records, this matter is only a passing mention, and the rest of the Cheng family's family is rarely described, and it will definitely not end well.

And then there's Tang Bohu. This brother is now also in prison, if he didn't save himself, I'm afraid he would be like the one recorded in history, and finally end up with a lifelong frustration, drown his sorrows with wine, and become a merry man who has no flowers and no wine to hoe the field.
