Chapter 522: Secret Conversation in the Study (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Huang Xianzheng turned his head to Mrs. Huang and said, "You go and prepare first, I have something to say to Zhiheng!" ”

Mrs. Huang nodded, and then said to Ning Zhiheng with a smile: "Zhiheng, you talk, I'll make a few more good dishes thank you!" ”

Ning Zhiheng hurriedly nodded yes, but Huang Xianzheng heard the meaning, looking at the jewelry box in Mrs. Huang's hand, he knew that it must be a gift from Ning Zhiheng, looking at Mrs. Huang's tone, it must be quite satisfactory.

He didn't say much, and motioned to Ning Zhiheng's study to discuss, Ning Zhiheng picked up the suitcase and walked into the study with Huang Xianzheng.

The two of them sat down separately, Ning Zhiheng hurriedly took the suitcase, took out a long strip-shaped packaging box, took out a short-axis picture scroll, and carefully handed it over to Huang Xianzheng.

"I have collected a lot of antiques in Shanghai, but it is really inconvenient to carry, so I selected this one, other objects, I will find a way to transport them back in the future, they are all good things, you will definitely like it!"

Huang Xianzheng's eyes lit up, he knew that Ning Zhiheng's eyesight was accurate, and the boutique that Ning Zhiheng could choose must be a rare treasure.

He hurriedly and carefully took the scroll, put it on the table, and gently unfolded it, and was shocked when he saw the withdrawal.

"Shen Zhou's Yuanchun birthday picture!" Huang Xianzheng exclaimed in a low voice.

Shen Zhouzi Qinan, the master of painting in the Ming Dynasty, the founder of the Wumen painting school, is the head of the four families of Wumen, and Wen Zhengming, Tang Yin, Qiu Ying and called the "Ming Four", in the painters of the entire Ming Dynasty, Shen Zhou's status is particularly important, he is also the teacher of Wen Zhengming, he is indifferent to fame and fortune all his life, advocating respect for teachers, the painting style is unique, it is said that he is especially good at painting birthday pictures, many officials at that time every time they do birthday, they have to ask him to paint birthday pictures, at that time it has even become a trend, the reputation is great, but unfortunately it is extremely rare to pass on to future generations, Unexpectedly, Ning Zhiheng actually collected a pair, which immediately surprised Huang Xianzheng.

Huang Xianzheng collects a lot of antique cultural relics, but most of them are utensils, but it is a major weakness in the calligraphy and painting category, mainly this kind of cultural relics collection, are in the hands of those scholarly eunuchs who have been passed down from generation to generation, all as heirloom treasures, unless there is a big change in the family, otherwise it will never be shot.

These precious calligraphy and painting cultural relics are not as easy to circulate as ordinary gold, silver and jade antiques, and there are very few people who can really know their value, and they are all collectors, so it is very difficult to collect calligraphy and painting antiques, not to mention the collection of fine products at the level of the four masters of the Ming Dynasty.

This time Ning Zhiheng did tell the truth, Ning Zhiheng sent people to collect such cultural relics in Shanghai before, in recent years, due to frequent wars, the value of cultural relics and antiques across the country has plummeted, but in Shanghai, because of convenient trade and developed commerce, it is the center of the national economy, gathering the most rich businessmen in the country, including many people who like to collect cultural relics, so the value of cultural relics is still maintained in a relatively high position, for profit, antique dealers around the country have shipped antiques to Shanghai, Therefore, it has also become a gathering place for all kinds of cultural relics.

Ning Zhiheng knew that Huang Xianzheng liked to collect the most, so he often bought it, he had plenty of funds in his hands, coupled with accurate eyesight, and soon collected a large number of fine products, Shen Zhou's Yuanchun birthday picture is one of them!

Huang Xianzheng saw such a fine product, and immediately put other things aside, and couldn't take care of anything, he carefully appreciated and tasted, nodded incessantly, and finally took a magnifying glass and looked at it seriously.

Ning Zhiheng knew Huang Xianzheng's habits, so he sat quietly and waited until Huang Xianzheng put down the magnifying glass in his hand, and his face was full of joy and relief.

"Zhiheng, your eyesight is not bad, you can find such good things, tell me, how did you find it?" Huang Xianzheng asked with a smile, but he didn't raise his head, and his eyes still stayed on this picture scroll.

Ning Zhiheng said with a smile: "Shanghai is not only the economic center of the country, but also the cultural center, now the cultural relics from all over the country have been transported to Shanghai by cultural relics dealers, the transaction volume is very large, and there are a lot of such fine products, so as long as you work hard and the capital, such good things can still be found, and Shanghai is a treasure land!" ”

Huang Xianzheng was originally admiring this painting, but when he heard Ning Zhiheng's words, he immediately frowned, he could naturally hear the meaning of the words, this time he urged Ning Zhiheng to return to Wuhan, just to have a detailed discussion with him, and persuade Ning Zhiheng to return to the headquarters as the chief officer of the Operations Department, so as to consolidate the position of the Baoding Department in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department.

Huang Xianzheng carefully put away the scroll, then put it in the picture box, then looked at Ning Zhiheng and said softly: "I have been urging you to return to the headquarters as soon as possible to report on your work, but you have been delaying and not coming back until now, are you a little reluctant in your heart!" The princes of this side should be used to it, they are in power, and they scold Fang Xuan, and they don't want to come back and sit in the office with low eyebrows. ”

Ning Zhiheng hurriedly explained: "Seat, you misunderstood, my affairs in Shanghai have not ended, after receiving your telegram, I planned to come back as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that by accident, I would be recognized by Cui Guangqi My identity, I had to deal with it urgently, and I started to clear him, but the matter was hasty, leaving a lot of loopholes, I naturally had to keep an eye on the finishing work of this matter, observe the development of the situation, until I confirmed that there was no problem, I dared to get up and come back, it was by no means an excuse to delay!" ”

These words are absolutely true, Ning Zhiheng doesn't want to delay coming back until now, he also wants to solve this tricky matter as soon as possible, after all, the big war is about to start, and the later he comes back, the more dangerous it will be, and as a result, he has been delayed by Cui Guangqi's matter until now.

"You didn't make it clear in the telegram, how did Cui Guangqi recognize you? You tell me more about it. ”

Ning Zhiheng's telegram did not explain the specific situation clearly, after all, the content of each telegram should be as brief as possible, and if the content is too long, the time for sending the report will be extended, which is very easy to expose.

Ning Zhiheng hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the matter, but he didn't say a word about He Siming's situation, just revealed it in a simple sentence, just said that Cui Guangqi tried to investigate himself and was detected by himself, so he started to clear it.

But Huang Xianzheng smiled and said: "You are like a fish in water in Shanghai, well-informed, Cui Guangqi is the deputy director of the Special Agent Detective Department, but just after the investigation of you, you heard the news, how did you do it?" ”

Huang Xianzheng is experienced, but he is not such an easy person to fool, he is still suspicious that Ning Zhiheng will go against his orders and personally eliminate Cui Guangqi, but there is no way to ask in detail in the telegram, so he naturally has to ask clearly.

Ning Zhiheng saw that Huang Xianzheng was asking, he had to have an explanation, and it seemed that he had to throw out one of his hole cards, and he said: "Seat, in fact, there are our own people in the Agent Detective Department." ”

"Someone with us?" Huang Xianzheng asked in surprise.

"Yes, this person's name is Luo Xingchao!"

So Ning Zhiheng first reported Luo Xingchao's situation in detail, He Siming is the trump card of his own sole leadership, and he is also the highest-ranking insider who has entered the Japanese spy department, Ning Zhiheng will never tell another person about his existence, even if it is his backer Huang Xianzheng.

But Luo Xingchaozhu was Zheng Hongbo's subordinate before, and his existence was at least known to Zheng Zhenghong and Hou Weizhao, which was not top secret, and he was not sure whether Zheng Hongbo would mention it to others, so of course Luo Xingchao lowered the level of secrecy by one level, even if he told Huang Xianzheng, it would not hurt.

"Are you saying that this Luo Xingchao turned out to be Zheng Hongbo's person, but he handed over the relationship to you before leaving!"

When Huang Xianzheng heard this, he suddenly realized, he didn't expect this matter to be so reversed and complicated, an intelligence station agent who was designated as a double agent for both sides before the war, finally broke into the interior of the Japanese and became the hole card in Ning Zhiheng's hand.

Ning Zhiheng nodded and said: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and there were only three people in Shanghai who knew Luo Xingchao's identity, Zheng Hongbo and Hou Weizhao wanted to withdraw from Shanghai immediately, so they handed this person over to me, I didn't expect that it played a role at a critical time!" ”

Huang Xianzheng thought for a while, nodded and said: "This person is very important, we have never had our own people in the Japanese, this time Cui Guangqi's rebellion, although it caused huge losses, but for our Baoding department, it was unscathed, but instead got this important shadow, it is really a turn of the peak, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise!" ”

Ning Zhiheng saw that Huang Xianzheng was no longer suspicious, and his heart was also relieved, the military intelligence investigation department was full of shrewd people with clear minds, which one was not easy to fool, Huang Xianzheng didn't care about things before, and the means were carried out secretly, Ning Zhiheng saw that he was also a pure elder, but now that he has real power in his hands, he has begun to deal with affairs, and he does not rub sand in his eyes, and the prestige of the superior is more and more prominent, so that Ning Zhiheng is secretly vigilant, and he must be cautious with Huang Xianzheng in the future, and he cannot make any mistakes.

"Is Cui Guangqi's hand tail food clean?"

"Don't worry, now the Japanese don't care about this matter, they handed over the investigation work to Wen Hao, the director of the Special Agent Investigation Department, this person is a traitor from the Central Party Affairs Investigation Department, and Cui Guangqi has always had contradictions, and the investigation work is no longer over, so I dare to go back to the headquarters to report on my work!" Ning Zhiheng explained.

Huang Xianzheng listened to Ning Zhiheng's words, then nodded and said: "Okay, that's good, we all know your work in Shanghai, your work is very good, several major information are provided by you, which has a great impact on the battle situation, especially the victory of the Battle of Xuzhou, you are indispensable, the commission and several commanders are very satisfied with you, and the Military Intelligence Department has benefited a lot, but because of this, you have been jealous of others, and this time you have spent a lot of money to transfer you back from Shanghai, what do you think?" ”
