When Qi Ning mentioned Shen Liangqiu on Haifeng Island, Shen Liangqiu was in front of the East China Sea Post House, he was not wearing a military uniform today, just wearing a civilian clothes, but his perennial military career, even if he was wearing civilian clothes, he also had a prestige.

Although Shen Liangqiu is the deputy general of the East China Sea Division and has a high position, this East China Sea Post House cannot be easily entered.

The post house is a place to entertain important people in Beijing, Shen Liangqiu, as a general of the military, if he does not get permission, he will not be able to enter the post house directly, but fortunately, he did not let him wait too long, Wei Yujiang has already welcomed him out.

"General Shen has been waiting for a long time!" Wei Yujiang arched his hand and said, "I don't know what General Shen is doing here?" ”

Shen Liangqiu also arched his hand and said: "Wei Sixian, I want to see Hou Ye, I don't know if Hou Ye is convenient to summon?" ”

"This ..... General Shen, after Hou Ye came back from going to sea yesterday, he was slightly unwell. Wei Yujiang said: "At the moment, he is still recuperating, it is indeed inconvenient to meet guests, if General Shen has something urgent, he can tell the lower official, and the lower official will convey it to the Hou Ye to know." ”

"Wei Sixian, there are some things that still have to be explained to Hou Ye in person, and I also ask Wei Sishen to report on my behalf." Shen Liangqiu said.

Wei Yujiang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not that the lower officials don't report it, the Hou Ye has been overworked recently, and this time he went to sea and was bumpy, and his body was really uncomfortable." He just fell asleep not long ago, and it is really not easy to disturb at this time, General Shen, it is better to be like this, after the Hou Ye wakes up, how about the lower officials to explain to the Hou Ye? ”

Shen Liangqiu hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "In this way, there will be a review by Lao Wei, and I will say goodbye." He didn't talk nonsense, went over and got on his horse, and left.

Wei Yujiang looked at Shen Liangqiu's distant figure, his eyes were deep.

Shen Liangqiu left the post house, rode a horse and turned two streets, arrived at a teahouse, threw the horse to the shopkeeper, and entered the store directly, but directly through the teahouse, to the back door, after going out from the back door, and then through a small alley, only then to get to the back door of a house, first knocked twice, and then knocked three times, the courtyard door "creaked" opened, after Shen Liangqiu entered the door, the back door was quickly closed.

He is obviously familiar with this house, passing through a flower garden, but in front of it is a small forest, Shen Liangqiu followed a path into the forest, the shade is dense, in the middle of the grove, a small bamboo house was built, a young man in Tsing Yi was guarding outside the door, seeing Shen Liangqiu, the little guy was familiar, bowed and saluted, but Shen Liangqiu didn't look at it, and went straight into the house.

The furnishings are simple, but very elegant.

Directly opposite the door is a set of bamboo bookshelves, on which are placed several rows of books, in the middle of the room is a small bamboo square table, next to the small table are two bamboo futons, on the left and right walls, hanging a few calligraphy and paintings.

The corner of the house was lit with sandalwood, and green smoke curled up.

There was a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the bamboo table, and a man in a purple robe behind the table was holding a wolf and was inscribed on the paper, when he heard Shen Liangqiu's footsteps coming in, the man raised his head and saw Shen Liangqiu, he was not surprised, but he was still waving ink on the paper, with a slight smile on his lips: "General Shen, what I said is not wrong, right?" ”

Shen Liangqiu sat down opposite the man, his expression was solemn, he stared at the man's eyes and said, "Mr. Jiang, it seems that something is really wrong. ”

The purple-robed man turned out to be Jiang Mantian, the head of the Jiang family in the East China Sea.

Jiang Mantian was calm and calm, looking very elegant, he raised his head and smiled: "How do you deal with it over there?" ”

"I'm sick and can't see guests!"

"Expected." Jiang Mantian said with a smile: "This is the last reply I want to hear, but this is the answer." General Shen, what are they deliberately concealing it for? ”

"What does Mr. Jiang think is the reason?"

Jiang Mantian said with a smile: "On the surface, I just don't want you to know what he's doing, you are the deputy general of the water division, he came to investigate the cause of the death of Lantai Zhilin, and he should have relied on you with all his might, but now since he doesn't let you know what he is doing, isn't the reason self-evident?" Jiang Mantian looked at Shen Liangqiu's eyes: "In my opinion, this Jinyi Hou at least has no trust in you, General Shen." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Mantian sighed: "General Shen, this matter has been flawed everywhere from the very beginning, although it is tried to cover it up, but it is almost impossible to do such a big thing without a trace. ”

Shen Liangqiu frowned and said, "Where is Qi Ning now?" ”

"I also want to know where he is." Jiang Mantian said: "As far as I know, he went out of the city with Qin Yuege, and left quickly, after leaving the city, it is naturally not good for me to send someone to continue to follow." ”

Shen Liangqiu stared at Jiang Mantian's eyes, with a hint of suspicion, his lips moved, and finally asked, "Mr. Jiang, that woman surnamed Tian, is it really not your side that did it?" ”

Jiang Mantian raised his hand and put the wolf on the side, and sighed: "General Shen still doesn't seem to have enough trust in me today. From the very beginning, I said that the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed in the anthill, although Qi Ning is young, but he is not incompetent, this trip to the East China Sea, we must be wary of him everywhere, before he leaves the East China Sea, we must sleep with our eyes open. Staring at Shen Liangqiu's eyes, he said lightly: "The death of Shentai Zhilin will make things very troublesome, but another thing that General Shen does later will make things even more troublesome." ”

"You mean .....?"

"Lady Shotai's business." Jiang Mantian lifted the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and didn't care about Shen Liangqiu, taking a sip of the cup: "The general should discuss with me in advance." ”

Shen Liangqiu's face was grim, and he said lightly: "There is no need to say much about this matter, since it has been done, it is also done." ”

Jiang Mantian let out an "oh" before he said: "The general should understand that you and I are in the same boat, in the same boat, once the boat sinks, it is not only the general who falls into the water." ”

"What if he really finds out?" Shen Liangqiu sneered: "With the military power in hand, he wants to leave the East China Sea, but I'm afraid it won't be so easy." ”

"Soldier in hand?" Jiang Mantian's expression also became cold: "General Shen, Xin Ci came this time, why you know better than me. If it was just Qi Ning, many things would be much simpler, but when Xin Ci arrived in the East China Sea, this matter changed. ”

Shen Liangqiu's brows were slightly locked, and Jiang Mantian said calmly: "If it's just Qi Ning coming, it only means that Tang Tai Huang is suspicious of Tan Tai Lin's death, but if Xin Ci comes, maybe Tan Tai Huang has already suspected you." ”

Shen Liangqiu sneered: "Doubt me? ”

"Xin Ci is a veteran of the East China Sea Division, and he knows the East China Sea Division very well, and this person was famous in the East China Sea Division back then, whether it is prestige or qualifications, it is not below you." Jiang Mantian said slowly: "The Tai Tai clan is dead, the East China Sea Master has no leader, many people want to take advantage of the void, of course the Zhenguo Gong will not miss such an opportunity, but the Golden Dao Tai family is naturally impossible to give away his hole cards to others, and it is bound to be in a battle with the Tai family for a while." Pulled a piece of letterhead from the table and handed it to Shen Liangqiu, Shen Liangqiu reached out and took it, opened it and looked at it, his face quickly became solemn.

"The Zhou commander of the Xuanwu Battalion has been dismissed from office, and the new commander is Qu Yanzhi, who is a member of the Black Knife Battalion." Jiang Mantian said lightly: "The Xuanwu camp has been acquired by the Sima family, if I am not mistaken, this is naturally due to the transaction with the Golden Dao Tai family." The Golden Dao Tai kept the East China Sea Division, and the candidates for the Metropolitan Governor were naturally screened out by the Golden Dao Tai family. ”

"The news brought by Xin Ci, the imperial court is ready to issue an edict, and I will take over the position of the governor." Shen Liangqiu's expression was cold: "As long as the will comes down, the East China Sea Master will be completely in my hands." ”

Jiang Mantian sighed: "But the will has not come down, on the contrary, that Xin Ci has already taken the lead in coming to the water master." He took a cup of tea and said leisurely: "If the imperial court issues a decree and he takes over the position of the governor, I will not be surprised." Xin Ci was in the East China Sea back then, and he was a confidant of Tai Huang, you should know why Xin Ci left the East China Sea Division. Tan Tai Huang was worried that Xin Ci's prestige and qualifications in the water division were too high, so it was likely to affect the prestige of Tan Tai Lin in the water division, so he took him back to Beijing, Xin Ci was a smart man, knowing Tan Tai Huang's worries, he took the initiative to follow back to Beijing. ”

"I naturally know the reason why he returned to Beijing back then." Shen Liangqiu said lightly.

"Xin Ci can stay in Beijing for more than ten years in obscurity without complaints, with all due respect, with Xin Ci's ability, it is more than enough to command 350,000 soldiers and horses, even if he is not in the water division, he can be transferred to other places, why are he willing to do nothing by the side of Taihuang?" Jiang Mantian's voice was smooth and gentle from beginning to end: "Xin Ci is a hand-picked up by Taihuang, there is no need to doubt his loyalty to Taihuang, and he is also a sharp weapon in the hands of Taihuang, the weapon should not be taken lightly, Taihuang did not move according to this sword, so he naturally waited for the right time to show his sword!" ”

Shen Liangqiu frowned and said, "You mean that you sent Xin Ci this time to show your sword?" ”

"Xin Ci is above you in terms of qualifications and prestige, and he has more trust than you." Jiang Mantian said: "If I am Shantaihuang and want to control the water master in my hands, the most suitable person is not you, but Xin Ci." ”

"In that case, why did Taihuang recommend me to the imperial court as the governor of the capital?" Shen Liangqiu's eyes were sharp, and he said thoughtfully: "What kind of medicine is sold in that old guy's gourd?" ”

Jiang Mantian smiled indifferently and said, "Compared with the death of Lantai Zhilin, what Tangtai Huang is most worried about is that the sailor will be in turmoil. General Shen, dare to ask, if the imperial court really decreed that Xin Ci would take over the position of the governor of the capital, and after Xin Ci took office, he would readjust the water division, I don't know what would happen to you? Leaning forward slightly, he smiled faintly: "Once a son of heaven and a courtier, if Xin Ci takes office, the current generals of the water division will inevitably change greatly, and those henchmen you arranged by the water master are likely to be purged, so that the situation that you have worked hard for many years will disappear, Xin Ci is not a layman, his familiarity with the water master is not below you, it only takes a very short time, he can completely control the water master in his hands, as for you, .....!" He smiled faintly and said, "I'm going to look up to him too." ”

"He does have the ability." Shen Liangqiu sneered: "Naturally, I won't give him this opportunity." ”

"Yes, no matter what, we can't let the water master control Xin Ci." Jiang Mantian said with a smile: "So if Xin Ci takes over the position of the Metropolitan Governor, the water master will naturally have some turmoil, and he will get rid of this person ..... anything!" After a pause, his eyes deepened: "How sophisticated is Taihuang, can't you figure out this section?" However, if you are told that the imperial court will issue an edict to take over you as the governor of the capital, it will naturally appease you, so that at least the sailor will not be in chaos for a short time. ”

Shen Liangqiu's eyes were as cold as a knife, and he said coldly: "If he didn't doubt me, he wouldn't have to appease me, since he used this means to appease me, wouldn't he really have doubted me?" ”
