Chapter 11: Conspiracy, Conspiracy?

As Sun Shaozong expected, this kind of story of 'being angry as a colleague and solving a strange case in half a day' was the easiest to spread among the people in ancient times.

didn't wait until the next day, he had just sent the reluctant Ruan Rong home, and on the way, he heard someone discussing the matter in the street wine shop, and his name of 'Sun Duwei' was repeatedly mentioned.

The only thing that is a little inappropriate is that Li Jiuming seems to have been arranged as a jealous and jealous harlequin, used to set off him and Wei Guangzheng, the second male Feng Xin - needless to say, Feng Xin must have secretly added drama to himself, otherwise with his ability, how could he be the second male lead?

Now is the time to unite all the forces that can be united, when Qinglin Mansion is building momentum, it is not a good thing to offend a local snake like Li Jiuming for no reason, especially if people have helped themselves.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong was ready to come to the door the next day to apologize, and take advantage of the situation to add fuel and vinegar to the hype, and earn the name of 'heroes cherish heroes'.

Who knew that the plan could not keep up with the change.

Early the next morning, Sun Shaozong had just gotten up from the bed, and before he had even started to wash, an official sent a poster and asked him to go to Prime Minister Nguyen Phuc Chung's mansion to talk about it.

This Ruan Fuzhong is really above 10,000 people in Qianxiang Country, not to mention Sun Shaozong's small captain, even when Niu Yongxin was still alive, if he wanted to see the other party, he had to go to the Ministry of Rites to apply for a report first.

Such a big man sent an invitation, where did Sun Shaozong dare to delay and delay?

Besides, his plan of 'pulling the banner and pulling the tiger's skin' also needs such a big man as a stepping stone, how can such a God-given opportunity be missed?

Therefore, Sun Shaozong had to ask Feng Xin to apologize for coming to the door on his behalf, anyway, this matter was originally caused by Ya, and it was only appropriate for him to wipe his buttocks.

However, it was said that Sun Shaozong rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the dust, and after the guests and hosts were seated in the living room, Ruan Fuzhong first expressed his condolences to the people of the embassy on behalf of the court of Qianxiang State, praised the guards headed by Sun Shaozong, and reviewed the past years of unity and friendship between the two countries, and looked forward to a brighter future.

In the end, Nguyen Phuc Trung finally began to interrogate in detail, and Sun Shaozong and others traced the process of the assassin Yu Dang.

Until this time, this meeting gave Sun Shaozong the feeling that he was going through the motions, just like the commendation conferences for model workers he had attended in the modern era before - all official articles, and there was nothing dry to speak of.

The only difference is that Ruan Fuzhong's words are more elegant, and his attitude is stronger than those city and county-level leaders.

However, just when Sun Shaozong gradually lowered his vigilance, Ruan Fuzhong coldly threw out a sentence: "I, the Qianxiang Kingdom and the Great Zhou are brothers and sisters, but the Jinguo regards the Great Zhou as a tiger, leopard and jackal, and those assassins are naturally from the Jinguo country, and they can only come from the Jinguo country!" ”

With just this sentence, Sun Shaozong only felt that his hairs stood on end, and he was almost shocked into a cold sweat!

What does this mean?

Are you testing yourself to see the flaws?

Or is it showing that Qian Xiangguo is actually a conspiracy, and he is not afraid that Da Zhou will find out the truth at all?

Just one sentence, but it's scary to think about!

Fortunately, Sun Shaozong has experienced several years in modern officialdom, and he is not a real hairy boy, so he barely stabilized his mind and did not show his cowardice in front of Ruan Fuzhong.

-- Dividing line --

Wait until you get back to the embassy.

On the one hand, according to the original plan, Sun Shaozong sent people to spread rumors that 'Prime Minister Ruan has a discerning eye for talents, and Sun Duwei loyally refuses to recruit', falsely claiming that Nguyen Phuc Trung recruited him as a third-rank general, but he was very moved to refuse.

On the other hand, stimulated by Ruan Fuzhong, Sun Shaozong made up for the domestic and foreign situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and found that this surnamed Ruan may really be engaged in yang conspiracy!

Generally speaking, feudal dynasties pay attention to the two days and the people, but the Great Zhou court has two suns: the abdicated emperor and the successor emperor.

In the face of imperial power, even fathers and sons are inevitably suspicious of each other and constrained, so the decrees of the Great Zhou Dynasty over the years have often been changed and contradicted each other, which has greatly dragged down the efficiency of the local government and reduced the prestige of the imperial court.

For example, the Mongolian tribes in the northwest were almost wiped out by the Great Zhou Dynasty more than 50 years ago, and they only dared to call themselves slaves for decades, but now they are colluding with the Heishui Turtle in the northeast, and they are quite ready to move.

On the southeast coast, the Japanese and Huangmaoyi people also became more and more violent, repeatedly going ashore to plunder, causing untold suffering to the people along the coast.

Under these internal and external troubles, Da Zhou still has the strength to take care of the six countries in southern Xinjiang?

Therefore, although the middle and lower echelons of Qian Xiangguo still maintain their awe of Da Zhou, the high-level people have already given birth to different thoughts, so they will secretly use their means to test Da Zhou's reaction.

Anyway, they are mainly aimed at the Jinguo country, and the government and the opposition are very obedient to the Great Zhou, as if they regard themselves as loyal dogs of the Great Zhou, even if someone in the Great Zhou court sees the flaws, how can they deal with it? Could it be that for the sake of Niu Yongxin, he forced this only 'respectful and humble' little brother to rebel? !

After figuring out these joints, Sun Shaozong felt more and more that this pool of muddy water was unfathomable, and it was better to hide away from small fish and shrimp like himself.

Therefore, he told Feng Xin and the others to live in seclusion to save any more trouble; On the other hand, he took the lead in raising 500 taels of silver, which was used to buy the soldiers and officials who escorted the assassins, so that they could pass on the story of "Sun Duwei Solved the Strange Case in Half a Day, Prime Minister Ruan's Wisdom and Talent" to Shuntian Mansion.

After four or five days of calm and calm, seeing that the team escorting the assassins finally set off, the embassy suddenly welcomed another 'uninvited guest' - Ruan Rong's father, Nguyen Liangshun, the prefect of Qinglin.

Ruan Liangshun came to visit in the name of 'thanks', but Sun Shaozong really couldn't see any gratitude from him, but the old face was tense, as if someone owed him a lot of money.

At first, Sun Shaozong was very inexplicable, but for Ruan Rong's sake, he didn't bother with this old man - it wasn't until Ruan Liangshun said a word that he understood where the other party's inexplicable hostility came from.

"Captain Sun."

I saw Ruan Liang arching his hand with a smile, and said: "The little girl is concerned about the safety of the old man that day, and it is inevitable that she will be a little uneasy, Sun Duwei must not care - just after some time, the little girl will be married to the eldest son of Pan Shangshu of the household department, and the official will set up a wedding banquet at home at that time, and invite Sun Duwei to take the time to come." ”

How smart is Sun Shaozong?

immediately understood that Ruan Liangshun had something in his words, and his real intention was actually to warn him: My daughter is about to get married, you had better not have any more dealings with your daughter, let alone have any wrong thoughts!

This invited him to participate in the wedding banquet, I am afraid that it is just a casual remark, and it is not true at all.

Although Sun Shaozong also has a good impression of Ruan Rong, it is far from the level of love between men and women, not to mention that if nothing happens, he will return to Da Zhou in the near future, and I am afraid that there will be no chance to see Ruan Rong again in this life.

Therefore, after listening to this warning, although he felt a little unhappy, after sending Ruan Liangshun away, he also put this matter behind him.

After that, nearly 100 days later, the wedding banquet of Ruan's Mansion came as scheduled, and most of the relatives and friends received invitations, but Sun Shaozong was really missing from it - but even if he received the post, he was afraid that he would not have time to go to the banquet, because at the same time as the Ruan Mansion sent the wedding post, the new envoy of the Great Zhou finally arrived at Qinglin Mansion!
