Chapter 23: The Eve of the Fog (I)

The noisy street was full of busy people, and the hawkers stared at the people passing by in front of the stall with bright eyes, not letting go of a chance to sell, seeing that two well-dressed young people were about to come, they hurriedly took a step out of the stall and stretched out their hands to beckon: "Two little brothers, do you want candy people, it has just been made, and it is still hot."

"Sugar?" The younger boy swallowed his saliva and looked at the one next to him, "Boss, come on?" ā€

Zheng Zexin's eyes swept over the stall, the sugar man on it was very small and cute, it can be seen that the hawker boss's craftsmanship is exquisite, but such a good-looking sugar man, who would be willing to eat, "Xiaoshuai, do you want to eat?" ā€

Xiaoshuai approached the stall and took a fancy to the fat doll candy man at a glance, Lala Zheng Zexin said: "This looks good." ā€

"Boss, we want this." Zheng Zexin paid the money to see if Xiaoshuai could really talk to him.

Xiao Shuai licked it immediately after getting the candy man, revealing a satisfied expression, "Sweet!" ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Xiaoshuai, don't you think this sugar man looks good? Zheng Zexin turned his head, not wanting to see that the doll's head was about to be bitten off by Xiao Shuai.

"Hmm," Xiao Shuai chewed the candy in his mouth, there were still pieces left on the side of his mouth, and the candy man in his hand was already mutilated, he didn't feel anything wrong, and said frankly: "It's really beautiful, so it looks even more delicious." ā€

"Hehe......"

This is the so-called straightforward personality, knowing the essence of things, and not changing their minds because of the confusion of appearance. Zheng Zexin shook his head with a smile, he and Xiaoshuai didn't have such an understanding when they were young, so they took a lot of detours, but that was all from the previous life.

"Xiaoshuai, your intuition is good."

"Huh?" Xiaoshuai is a little inexplicable, is the boss praising him?

"What the eye sees is not necessarily real, just remember that."

"Oh......" Although Xiaoshuai didn't quite understand the meaning of this, he still wrote it down carefully.

"Two of you stay." An unfamiliar voice interrupted their conversation.

When they looked back, it was a young man dressed as a man.

Zheng Zexin felt familiar, and thought back in his mind, "Are you Aqing?" ā€

Ah Qing is a guy in the teahouse that Zhao Heqing used as a cover, which means that Ah Qing is Zhao Heqing's subordinate.

"Zheng Gongzi, handsome young man," Ah Qing said, "You haven't been here for a long time, do you have time to sit now?" ā€

"Okay." Zheng Zexin nodded and took Xiaoshuai to keep up with the other party's footsteps.

He could be sure that it was Zhao Heqing who was looking for them to have something.

As soon as they entered the teahouse, they were led into the private room they frequented, Zhao Heqing was sitting at the table drinking tea, and Honeysuckle and Wei Xing were standing next to them, and the two greeted Zheng Zexin at the same time: "Boss." ā€

Zheng Zexin nodded to them, and then waved at Zhao Heqing: "Your Highness." ā€

Zhao Heqing stretched out his hand and motioned for him to sit down.

"Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"I've found out that someone from the Blue Netherworld has infiltrated here."

The Qing Ming Kingdom is a neighboring country of the Jiangzhu Kingdom, with better population and resource advantages, in line with the idea of swallowing the weak with the strong, it frequently launched attacks on the Jiangzhu Kingdom, but fortunately, the soldiers who guarded it were brave and strategic, and they did not let them succeed once.

As for the investigation of outsiders, Jiangzhu has always been very strict and takes precautions, so so there has been no case of other countries sneaking into Jiangzhu country.

So now that Zhao Heqing said, someone has infiltrated, and it is still the more sensitive Qing Ying Kingdom, and things are really not quite right.

"There's a mole?" Zheng Zexin frowned and said, this is the most likely.

"By all indications, it is."

"Has Your Highness found out who the infiltrated person is?"

"The person sent to follow the person lost the person, there is no problem with the environment, probably the disguise, so I can't be sure now."

"If it's really the people of the Jiang Zhu Kingdom and the Qing Ying Kingdom conspiring, then it's not good."

Whether it is people inside or outside the court, if they have the bargaining chips of collaborating with the enemy, they will fall into the injustice of their own country. For the country, it is a betrayal, and for the people, it is a great evil. No matter what purpose this person has, he will not tolerate the world.

Zhao Heqing's face was slightly gloomy, "Zexin, who do you think that traitor will be?" ā€

"......" Zheng Zexin pondered for a moment, "If you can invite the Qing Netherworld, there must be enough power or people who will have enough power in the future, it is impossible for civil and military officials or princes and nobles, they don't have the courage to do it under the royal gaze, so that person must be a member of the royal family." ā€

"For example?"

"For the sake of the princes of the struggle for the throne."

"Including me?"

"If it were Your Highness, you wouldn't have told me this."

Zhao Heqing smiled, very pleased with his trust and loyalty, and said slowly after a while: "Do you think it is possible for the father?" ā€

Zheng Zexin was slightly surprised, Zhao Hengguang should be the most unlikely person, who would be stupid to let people give their position more threats, but Zhao Heqing must have his own reason for saying this.

He didn't agree or object, but he still had to say his thoughts, "The emperor's own power is barely balanced with the Shen family, with such a big obstacle as the Shen family, how can he have the heart to deal with the Qing Ming Kingdom, take 10,000 steps back, with the help of the Qing Ming Kingdom, when his power is stable, the other party will definitely use this to threaten and put forward various conditions, and how will he explain to the people of the country at that time." ā€

"If he subdues the forces under the control of the Shen family, this Qing Netherworld is nothing."

"Your Highness, although I have not seen the supernumerary battalion, I have also heard of their heroic deeds, and I am sure that it will be impossible to deal with them without losing troops, and it is also very sad for the emperor to rectify the situation of internal discontinuation when he finally achieves his goal."

Zhao Heqing said approvingly: "It's good that you can think of this, but in fact, I'm worried about the Wushu Kingdom." ā€

"Fog Shu Kingdom?" Zheng Zexin suddenly remembered the upcoming friendly visit from the Wushu Kingdom, "If the emperor gets their help, then there is nothing to worry about, but in this way, is it still necessary to find the Qing Netherworld?" ā€

"The Wushu Kingdom has always been peaceful, they will not fight for the sake of helping others, but they can help others for the sake of war."

Zheng Zexin suddenly realized, and couldn't help but worry: "They came for a friendly purpose this time...... "It is very likely that they are allied with Zhao Hengguang."

Zhao Heqing sighed, "I hope it's not what I thought." ā€

"Your Highness, let's not talk about whether it is the emperor who cooperates with the Qing Netherworld, what we can do now is to sabotage their cooperation."

"That's right. I've sent more people to find out the whereabouts of the people of the Blue Netherland. ā€

"Your Highness has something to do, just ask."

"In two days, the people of the Fog Shu Kingdom will arrive, and there will be a big banquet in the evening, and you and Xiaoshuai will mix in their team while there are many people, and help me monitor their every move."

Zheng Zexin and Xiaoshuai looked at each other, and then responded.
