Chapter Seventy-Seven: Haze
When such a big event happened, Zhao Mu was naturally very breathless, and after returning to the county office, he still kept pacing back and forth, looking anxious and unable to control himself. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Shen Qiwu was upset when he read it, so he simply picked up the book and didn't look at Zhao Mu.
Zhao Mu kept clenching his fists and tapping his palms, muttering in his mouth, "What should I do, what should I do?" ”
"Qiwu, you have to think of a way!" Zhao Mu felt that his head was big when he saw Shen Qiwu hanging up like he had nothing to do with himself, and his mouth was scolding, "You are really leisurely!" ”
Shen Qiwu frowned when he heard his words, and couldn't help but glance at him, his eyes tilted slightly and said, "Can you come up with a way like this?" ”
It's not that Shen Qiwu hasn't thought about these things, it's just that she sees it more clearly, since the struggle in the palace has begun, then these things should naturally be countermeasures for those who play chess. She and Zhao Mu are just an introduction, since things have begun to explode, it is time for the nobles in the palace to think about it.
"Alright, let's take a break. You've already arranged a lot of things today, and it's useless to be in a hurry like this. Zhao Mu's growth Shen Qiwu saw it in his eyes, from a bad and ignorant person, he gradually began to have the demeanor of a prince.
"Yes." Zhao Mu also knew that it was useless to be in a hurry, he tried his best to calm down, and then looked up at the sky again.
Dusk has arrived, but the guards who went to find Hou Yuan have not returned.
gradually cast a shadow on Zhao Mu's heart.
"Your Highness, Hou Yuan is nowhere to be found. We have searched Dangtu County, but there is still no trace of it. The guards sent to find Hou Yuan have returned, but as Zhao Mu was worried, Hou Yuan had already fled in fear of crime.
"Smack!" Zhao Mu's hand slapped the table.
Shen Qiwu glanced at him and said to the guards, "You guys go down first." ”
The guards retreated, Shen Qiwu put down the book and came to Zhao Mu's side, squeezed his shoulder, and said softly: "Don't be angry, I always feel that things are not as complicated as we thought." ”
Zhao Mu closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying the tenderness and sweetness he had finally received from his wife, and even his mood was much more relaxed, "Did you see something?" ”
"That's not true, but I always feel that this Hou Yuan may be the real key person." Shen Qiwu rubbed his shoulders for Zhao Mu and said in a low voice.
In Shen Qiwu's view, the beginning of the whole thing started with Hou Yuan. At first, he led them to Dangtu County, and at night he received a letter from a mysterious origin, followed by the appearance of Zhang Erhu, Song Jinliang was imprisoned, and Hou Yuan disappeared.
But it's a pity that I couldn't catch this Hou Yuan.
This made Shen Qiwu and Zhao Mu a little disappointed.
If this Hou Yuan is found, then it seems that the questions they have doubts can be answered.
Zhao Mu agreed with Shen Qiwu's statement, he sat on the chair and waited quietly for the night to fall.
"I've already written it to the capital, and I don't know what kind of waves it will have."
Shen Qiwu smiled noncommittally, she didn't care about what would happen in the capital, she was just speculating about the intention of this game of chess.
Just when the two of them were in their own trances, a guard hurried in, he bowed his head and knelt on one knee, "Your Highness, I found Hou Yuan!" ”
"What?" Zhao Muteng bounced up from the chair all of a sudden, he didn't expect the news to come so suddenly, "Bring him to see Gu!" ”
"It's in a ruined temple outside the city, and his subordinates have surrounded him, please go to His Highness."
"Okay." Zhao Mu should be happy.
Shen Qiwu frowned, pressed the emotional Zhao Mu, and said to the guard: "Wait, I don't seem to have seen you, who are you from?" ”
All the way south, Shen Qiwu had a slight influence on Zhao Mu's guards, and among the guards who could serve him, Shen Qiwu didn't feel that this person was familiar, and this person lowered his head and deliberately lowered his voice.
Zhao Mu may not have paid attention, but Shen Qiwu is a woman, a particularly careful woman, and it is not difficult to find these.
Hearing Shen Qiwu say this, Zhao Mu also felt a little weird, most of his guards were old men from the East Palace, and he didn't seem to have any impression of this person in front of him, so he couldn't help but say vigilantly: "You raise your head and let Gu take a look." ”
The guard seemed to bow his head and laughed.
He held his helmet with both hands, slowly stood up, revealed his true face, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness and the crown princess are really as careful as silk, and this has not deceived you." ”
"Hou Yuan!"
Seeing his face, Shen Qiwu and Zhao Mu were in disbelief.
The person standing in front of Zhao Mu and Shen Qiwu was the disappeared Hou Yuan, but he didn't expect him to come in disguise.
Zhao Mu blocked in front of Shen Qiwu with his body, and looked at Hou Yuan vigilantly, "Hou Yuan, what do you want to do now?" The lone guard is out there! ”
Hou Yuan smiled disapprerovingly when he heard this, looked at Zhao Mu and said, "Your Highness, you can rest assured, I have no malicious intentions." If you really want to harm the two of you, last night's throwing knife was enough. ”
Zhao Mu was stunned and asked in a lost voice, "You wrote the letter?" ”
Hou Yuan knelt directly on the ground, to the surprise of Zhao Mu and Shen Qiwu, "Your Subordinate Bai Ying see Your Highness, the crown princess, please forgive Your Highness for your offense." ”
"White Shadow?" Shen Qiwu was stunned, and pulled Zhao Mu's sleeve a little unfigured.
Isn't this Hou Yuan Song Jinliang's henchman? How did he turn into a white shadow, and he turned out to be the one who secretly sent the secret letter.
"Is there a seal?" Zhao Mu asked in a deep voice, as the crown prince, he was very clear about some of his father's forces in his heart. And this white shadow is naturally a very mysterious force among them.
It is said that there are black shadows and white shadows behind the father, the black shadow is in charge of intelligence, and the white shadow is in charge of spies, since the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, every emperor will take over these two forces, in order to achieve the effect of monitoring the world.
Hou Yuan respectfully took out his seal letter and handed it to Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu took it and looked through it carefully, and said incredulously: "You are really my father's person?!" ”
"Yes."
Shen Qiwu stood behind Zhao Mu, thought about it seriously, and asked, "So, all these arrangements are Your Majesty's intentions?" ”
Hou Yuan stood up and nodded, and said, "Your Majesty already knew that Song Guogong and the imperial concubine had colluded with bad intentions, and for the sake of the safety of the society, His Majesty sent his subordinates to lie dormant here early. Song Jinliang is the nephew of Song Guogong, and many secret deeds have passed through Song Jinliang's hands, so his subordinates deceived Song Jinliang from Song Jinliang's mouth yesterday and specially presented it to His Royal Highness. ”
As he spoke, he took out a thick account book from his bosom. (To be continued.) )
