Zhang Wuxian immediately laughed when he heard this, and said, "Don't let me investigate? Could it be that the truth will emerge naturally, and this method is too vulgar." ”

Shangguan Jin bit his lip and whispered, "What about the first item he said?"

Zhang Wuxian put the apple back and said, "I know that the emperor is good to us, but I have never relaxed my vigilance against the emperor, don't worry, I won't be so stupid." ”

Zhang Wuxian paused, and then asked, "Only these two sentences are said on the mural?"

Shangguan Jin shook his head and said, "It was too dark at that time, I could only vaguely see these two sentences, and there were many symbols in them that I couldn't understand." ”

Zhang Wuxian got out of bed as he spoke: "We have to rush over and have a look now, maybe this is the key clue to find out the story behind the mural." ”

The two of them came to the room, everything in the room was the same, even the position of the mural and the things hidden on it did not seem to have changed, it seemed that the person who left the word was not only strong in martial arts but also meticulous in heart.

Zhang Wuxian took a dust whisk and dusted off the dust and debris on the mural. Sure enough, there was indeed handwriting on it, with a total of 3 sentences, in which the two armies were exactly the same as what Shangguan Jin said. There is another sentence, the reason why Shangguan Jin can't understand it is because that sentence is English, in the words of this century, it is a foreign language.

Fortunately, Zhang Wuxian's English has already passed the eighth level, which is easy for Zhang Wuxian, which translates to the meaning of "making great progress".

Zhang Wuxian told Zhang Wuxian the translated content. Don't say it, this is really stumped Zhang Wuxian, first said to let yourself be careful of the emperor, and then said not to let yourself interfere, and now it is said to "make a big difference". The first two things may be logically related, but the third sentence is a bit confusing.

Zhang Wuwudao's mind turned, and he suddenly had an idea. He had a strong intuition, and it shouldn't be difficult to find the person who left the letter. Zhang Wushu said: "Miss Shangguan, what time is it? I am in a hurry to see the emperor now." ”

Shangguan Jin said with a blank face: "It's the time of Chen, the emperor is going to the early dynasty, and today's early dynasty will be much longer than the previous early dynasty." ”

"Why?"

"I heard Ah Jin say that this morning is the day when the emperor entertains foreign envoys Count Markosky and Princess Zitong, both of whom are from Tibet. ”

The corners of Zhang Wuxian's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled: "It's exactly what I want, it just so happens that I want to meet this earl and this princess Zitong." ”

Shangguan Jin said: "You suspect that they did it, but they have no motive for committing the crime, besides, they only came this morning, and the incident happened last night." ”

Zhang Wuxian sighed and said: "Don't be blinded by the illusion you see, I want to see how capable this earl is, he can blatantly leave me clues, his purpose is to lead me over." ”

The reason why Zhang Wuxian is so sure is because the law of Daqi strictly stipulates that no one is allowed to learn foreign languages except for certain personnel, so those who can write English are inseparable from this diplomatic corps.

After the emperor went to court, Zhang Wuxian told him his thoughts, and he agreed to Zhang Wuxian's communication with the diplomatic corps, but he told Zhang Wuxian not to expose the fact that he could speak English.

After receiving the emperor's decree, things will be much easier. Since ancient times, all dynasties and generations have had palaces dedicated to hosting foreign missions. Daqi's is the Li Fan Yuan. This time Zhang Wuxian did not let Shangguan Jin accompany her, mainly because she was tired for a night, it was time to rest and rest, Zhang Wuxian took Zhuge Jin to the Li Fan Courtyard, Zhang Wuxian could hear a bunch of people chattering in English from afar, which seemed to talk about Qi Yongle and the Emperor Taishang. But Zhuge Jin was confused when he heard it.

After the two came, they went directly into the lobby and did not let the eunuch report it. Because Tubo has always bowed to Daqi, this year is just a routine tribute. There's no need to show too much respect for them. Zhang Wuxian opened the book and announced the decree, and the holy decree mainly said that they should cooperate with Zhang Wuxian or something.

When Zhang Wuxian handed the holy decree to the earl, he whispered in English, "Make a big difference", which could only be heard by the two of them. The earl was taken aback when he heard this, and was about to ask, but Zhang Wuxian made a silent gesture to him. This dispelled Markowsky's thoughts.

Markosky sat back and said, "The Great Qi Palace is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and a mere eunuch can have something to do with my affairs." "It wasn't Markowsky who said it, it was the translator he brought with him.

Zhang Wuxian smiled, and looked at the earl with a straight look: "The miscellaneous family is just a small person, how much can it have to do with the earl's affairs? Besides, the miscellaneous family can't make any waves, right?" Zhang Wuxian said this sentence in English, although Qi Le had a word first, but only in this way can he more directly let the earl understand his intentions.

Markosky frowned, waved his hand to his entourage and interpreter, and motioned for them to go out first. When Zhang Wuxian saw it, he also attached it to Zhuge Jin's ear and said, "You don't have to go out." ”

Markosky pointed to Zhuge Jin and said in English: "What does this mean? My people have already gone out, but he has not gone out." ”

Zhang Wu thought sadly, you have so much hair on your face, and you completely image Lao Tzu looking at your expression analysis psychology, which has caused a great disadvantage to Lao Tzu, and now it is difficult to let me leave a military advisor.

Zhang Wuxian did not reply, but this is also the best reply.

Markosky nodded and said in English: "It's okay, anyway, it doesn't hurt me if he leaks something, the two countries will not fight each other, and besides, Count Ben is here to pay tribute, and Emperor Daqi will not do anything to me." ”

Zhang Wuxian replied in English: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by leaving three lines of words on the mural? The last line is deliberately left in English, how can I not think of you when you say this matter?" Zhang Wuxian's mood gradually fluctuated a little.

Markosky took a sip of tea: "Don't be impulsive first, I can make it clear that I didn't do it, but I don't like to lie, this matter does have something to do with me, not only with me, but also with Qi Yongle, Qi Le and Qi Le's father and even the whole world." ”

Zhang Wuxian sneered: "Hugh has to use the world to press me, even if a mere mural is destroyed, the country will not be hurt a little bit." ”

Markosky was domineering and said without any concession: "That's because you didn't use things in the right place, and nothing will happen if you destroy the mural, but if you put the mural in front of the Emperor Taishang, will you still stand here in good condition and talk to me?"

After Markosky finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had missed his words, and hurriedly looked left and right and said to him: "I advise you, it is better not to trust your emperor too much, at least I can be sure of one thing, it is impossible for him not to know the fresco." ”

With that, Markowsky shouted in Chinese: "Send off!"

These two words surprised Zhuge Jin, it turned out that this guy understood the Central Plains language, and let himself listen to so many chattering voices, but Zhang Wuxian left Zhuge Jin for a purpose, even if he couldn't hear what was said, Zhang Wuxian could also tell him when the time came, and then let him analyze Markosky's emotional changes according to himself, maybe it could turn the tide for Zhang Wuxian.

The two returned to Shangyi Prison, and since the last time the emperor greeted the Ming Zizhong, he had never felt sorry for Zhang Wuxian. On the contrary, in the clear characters, he did everything possible to be courteous to the three of them, so that outsiders could not be puzzled when they saw it.

Zhang Wuxian roughly told Zhuge Jin about the content of their conversation, and the advice given by Zhuge Jin was the same as what Zhang Wuxian thought, this earl should have a certain connection with Qi Yongle.

Something suddenly flashed in Zhang Wuxian's mind, and he hurriedly told Zhuge Jin: "Yesterday, Miss Shangguan and I heard the squire of the Criminal Department and Baylor talking about Qi Yongle's rebellion in the palace. I didn't pay much attention to this matter because I was mainly investigating the case at the time, but now that I think about it, I am very worried about the emperor. ”

Zhuge Jin said: "Childe, with all due respect, although the earl has repeatedly stated that he will not let us believe in the emperor, we can't let the emperor feel alienated because of this, first, to prevent us from falling into the enemy's discordant scheme." If, as the earl said, the emperor and us are enemies, then our rustiness will definitely startle the snake. ”

Zhang Wuxian nodded, it seems that he has a good vision, this Zhuge Jin has a sense of the overall situation. At least I didn't think about it.

Zhang Wuxian said: "What Gongzi Zhuge said is that we don't want the emperor to find out anything, but behind our backs, it is necessary for us to leave a way for ourselves to survive and prevent being caught in the urn at that time." ”

"What does Childe mean?"

"I have 5,000 taels of gold now, I can recruit some soldiers and horses, we are in the middle, it is very likely that the emperor and the earl will clamp us to death, and when we go out of the palace to Lin Yuan, we will trouble Brother Ah Jin to bother recruiting soldiers and horses." ”

Zhang Wuxian took out the sachet and jade pendant, and said: "I have one of these two tokens, you can take one away first, which should be able to be used when doing things, which can help you speed up the completion of the recruitment of troops, but Brother Ah Jin has to keep in mind that this matter must be carried out in secret." With that, Zhang Wuxian handed the diamond-shaped jade pendant to Zhuge Jin.

Seeing this, Zhuge Jin hurriedly pushed back and said, "Thanks to the love of the son, he believes in me so much. Not only did he promise to let me follow Childe, but now Childe trusts me so much. I, Zhuge Jin, promise that in my lifetime, I will serve my son, so as to repay my son's kindness and my son's trust in my subordinates.

Zhang Wuxian smiled and said, "Then do you want to disobey my orders now?"

"Ah Jin doesn't dare, but ......."

"There's nothing to do, since I've told you everything, to prove that I have enough trust in you, you'll be angry if you don't take me anymore. ”

Zhuge Jin was in a dilemma, so he agreed to accept the jade pendant. However, Zhuge Jin said that as long as he completed the recruitment of troops and horses, he would definitely return the jade pendant as soon as possible.

After Zhuge Jin put away the jade pendant, he continued: "Childe, there is still a big problem in this matter. Childe needs to come forward to solve it. ”
