Chapter 431: Give the Other Party a Chance (Second Update)

After all, these two counties are connected to Nanhai County, and Nanhai County will be the absolute center of southern Daqin in a few years in Yinggao's heart, but at this stage, Yinggao's idea cannot be revealed.

Just when Yinggao was in a good mood, one day after just retreating from the court, Cao Shen trotted all the way to Yinggao's hall for the first time.

As soon as Yinggao saw that Cao Shen had come at this time, he knew that he must have gotten some first-hand news, and he hurriedly put down what he was doing at hand and sent everyone around him out.

"Your Majesty, in the past few days, in the conversations between several sons, there have been some words similar to the previous rumors!" Obviously, Cao Shen, who got the news, was quite excited, because the appearance of such rumors showed that the black hand hiding behind the scenes began to move again, and furthermore, the black hand behind the scenes had arrived in Xianyang City again.

"What kind of rumor is it being investigated?"

"This rumor, it is precisely because of the immigration policy of the king this time, the immigration policy has caused a very heated discussion among the people of Xianyang City, these sons are naturally no exception, it was okay before, but suddenly, they actually talked about this time after the immigration, such as Guilin, Xiangjun and Bashu such borders, naturally need heavyweights to go to the town, just like the prince of Fusu in Nanhai County, and people with such an identity and status are undoubtedly the brothers of these sons in their eyes!"

"When did I become brothers with them!?"

To Cao Shen's surprise, after Cao Shen finished saying this, Yinggao was a little annoyed and said such an exclamation, but before Cao Shen could say anything, Yinggao immediately said: "I only have Yangzi's own sister!" ”

In this way, Cao Shen can also understand Yinggao, after all, Yinggao was bullied in Xianyang Palace when he was a teenager, and he also heard about these things when he was drinking with some people.

Although the king said so, in their eyes, they were the pure blood of the First Emperor, and only by sending them to those remote places could they have the same effect as Fusu Gongzi suppressing the South Vietnamese. And this time...... They didn't seem to be afraid to let the king know, but seemed to want the king to know what was in their hearts. ”

"Oh? It seems that the person who is hiding behind it has learned to do the opposite......"

Yinggao sighed, but his brows were also tightly locked, and he walked back and forth a few times in front of Cao Shen, obviously speculating about the cause and effect of this incident and what the enemy hidden in the shadows was thinking.

"Do you think that this rumor is someone still manipulating it behind the scenes?"

In fact, Cao Shen has been a little skeptical about this problem until now, because he has been in control of the entire Xianyang City for a short time, but unfortunately, he has not even found Zhao Cheng's hair.

In Cao Shen's opinion, if this Zhao Cheng really had a way to enter Xianyang City, it was impossible for him not to know, so he had some doubts in his heart about whether Zhao Cheng was a real existence.

"If you can't see him, it doesn't mean that he doesn't exist, these so-called brothers of mine were originally some characters who sang every day, and they were good at wine and meat in Xianyang City, how could they suddenly start to envy Fusu's life? It would be strange if no one instilled such ideas in them. Who did the wives of the sons I asked you to investigate have a relationship with, have you ever investigated? ”

After confirming that there must still be someone behind the scenes, Ying Gao suddenly remembered Feng Qing's reminder to him before, and then when he and Feng Qing were whispering on his couch, Fu Su consciously asked again, and finally learned from Feng Qing's mouth that many women of the old Qin nobles, especially those who were married, had the habit of raising their faces.

This detail made Yinggao believe that the breakthrough in this matter was likely to be in which son's wife, and it was precisely because of the secrecy of such things that the source of the rumors had not been found at all.

Sure enough, after hearing Yinggao's question, Cao Shen's face turned out to be embarrassed, and he didn't say anything for a long time, and finally faced Yinggao's increasingly unkind gaze, he sighed and opened his mouth very embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, this matter is really a little difficult for me, the wives of those sons you mentioned, whenever they go out on weekdays, of course my eyeliner in Xianyang City can stare at them to death, but there is nothing abnormal about the behavior of these ladies outside, and the affairs of other people's mansions, Shen really can't be transgressed, after all, this is the son of Daqin, the brother of the king, if he really sneaks into their mansion and is known by some irrelevant people, it will be a big loss for the prestige of the Daqin royal family. Therefore, until now, I only dare to send people to peep outside the doors of these princes' mansions, if you want to observe in more detail, you have to think twice! ”

For such a taboo thing, although Cao Shen knew that he was Yinggao's out-and-out cronies, he was still a little at a loss, in case any of the son's wife did something in his own house and was discovered by him, he told Yinggao that it was a small matter, in case this matter was revealed in the future, and it reached the ears of the people of Xianyang City, he would be the sinner of the Great Qin royal family.

This pot, Cao Shen really doesn't want to carry it so much, after all, it's like a person hiring an outsider to monitor his family's affairs, Cao Shen is of course very embarrassed as an outsider.

And what Feng Qing knew, Cao Shen knew more or less, once this matter was not spread from the trivial things done by those sons and wives as Ying Gao said, but he unveiled this unspoken rule, then Cao Shen would not have to mix in Xianyang City in the future.

Yinggao's head is so smart, he looked at Cao Shen's embarrassed bear appearance, and probably knew that this guy must know something, so he shook his head helplessly, and scolded with a straight face: "You are really rotten wood that cannot be carved, and I didn't say that you should sneak into the mansion of my brothers to secretly observe you, why are you afraid?" Could it be that you don't want to do any of these things, and you want me to sneak in for yourself? ”

Yinggao's words were obviously a joke, but he was obviously a little angry, Cao Shen could only nod with a bitter face when he saw this, but he still looked reluctant.

"Well, no matter what you see in this investigation, you are only responsible to me, and no matter what happens in the future, I will not blame you, okay?"

Seeing that Cao Shen was still embarrassed, Yinggao also felt that this matter might indeed be a little difficult for him, and people didn't know that you were actually a crossover, and you didn't care if those Daqin's sons were embarrassed or not, so Yinggao knew that it was still very necessary to give Cao Shen a sense of security, after all, this was a job to touch the tiger's buttocks.

"Cao Shending should do his best!"

Almost after using all his strength to express his position, Cao Shen finally withdrew from the Yinggao hall step by step, not so much to quit, but to escape, he was afraid that his monarch would suddenly want to let him do something to touch the tiger's tail.

Although Cao Shen also knew that he was an underground worker in Xianyang City, Cao Shen really didn't know how to arrange this kind of thing when he arrived in his mansion......

After arranging these with Cao Shen, Yinggao knew that it was time for him to leave Xianyang again, with the urine of this mastermind behind the scenes, Yinggao felt that if he didn't let him be completely reassured, he really wouldn't be able to fully exert his strength, if he didn't exert his strength, it would be difficult for Cao Shen to really get any useful clues.

At the court the next day, Yinggao directly announced that he would go to Luoyang a day later to see the progress of the immigration policy outside Hangu Pass.

Although some officials, including Xiao He, don't know why Yinggao has to go to Luoyang, because Luoyang is still very rich, although such a place can be stronger than Xianyang, but there are still not many people who choose to immigrate to those few remote places that can't go to remote places, that is, there may be a little bit of surrounding villages.

But this time, Xiao He and the others did not say anything to refute, because Yinggao went to Luoyang to have a very big advantage, that is, Luoyang is not far from Xianyang.

At such a distance, with Yinggao's neat strength, it may be a few days of hard work to come back.

But if you put it up and refute it, and then arouse Yinggao's interest, Yinggao will go to some places like the South China Sea to see, then Xiao He Ke will be hairy, what kind of torture he and Meng Yi tortured the rumors circulating in Xianyang City last time, but he still remembers it vividly.

Of course, they didn't know that Yinggao chose to rush to Luoyang at this time for more than one other purpose.

This time, although Yinggao did not have the same fanfare as last time, he still brought the Zhu family, Lu Jia and Chen Ping, the three main courtiers in the court, and unexpectedly, Feng Qing and Tian Yan set off with Yinggao again.

Since the last time Tian Yan rode a horse and took Feng Qing to run wild on the land of Jiujiang County, many accompanying officials saw it, and when Yinggao took his wife on patrol again, these officials were naturally relieved.

There has always been such a rumor in Xianyang City, that is, Yinggao's second wife Tian Yan's kung fu, that is even the head of the dignified guards, the Zhu family, is willing to bow down, so Yinggao took Tian Yan out on patrol, so it is not necessarily because of what, in case people want Tian Yan to follow to protect themselves, maybe not?

This is another trip to go, Yinggao in the early morning of the next day when he made a decision, he set off from the south gate of Xianyang City with a group of guards, and unlike the last long-distance patrol, this time Yinggao announced it before leaving, after all, the road from Xianyang to Luoyang is a straight road newly built by Daqin, and there is nothing easy to suffer from ambushes, and there is no problem with safety at all.

Less than two hours after Yinggao walked out of Xianyang City with great fanfare, the news reached Zhao Cheng's ears.

"What? This guy actually left Xianyang City again? ”

Zhao Cheng was still quite surprised by this news, after all, Yinggao had just returned to Xianyang City from the distant Jiujiang County and had not been too long, and it stands to reason that the freshness should not have waited for it to pass, so it was a bit incomprehensible.

"Yes, many people in Xianyang City are in the middle of the road to say goodbye, I am also in it, I see it very really, surrounded by the guards of Xianyang Palace, and the lieutenant Zhu family, said that he went to Luoyang to see the implementation of this immigration policy, but Luoyang is not far from Xianyang, and the emperor is lightly armed, and it won't take much time to come, and he will return."

"Hmph, now this emperor is really worthy of the first emperor's own son, the first emperor is addicted to and can't extricate himself from the patrol, several times he was almost assassinated to death on the way out of the patrol, but he is still happy, it seems that now this emperor, is also average, he is gone, we can use these few days to add fire to those sons who are already a little impatient."

Yinggao is gone, Zhao Cheng's heart is also a song for no reason, Yinggao is not only the emperor of Daqin today, but also the person who personally buried his brother Zhao Gao's more than 20 years of hard work, as long as Yinggao is in Xianyang City, Zhao Chengcheng feels that there is a shadow over his head, and he has no confidence in acting, so the last time he spread rumors, it was just when Yinggao went to Jiujiang to patrol.

After Yinggao's departure, Xianyang City seemed to be as calm as ever, and most people would not have any bad thoughts because the emperor was not in the city, of course, this did not include the Hu Hai couple who had imprisoned themselves in their mansion for a long time.

They were obviously waiting for something, and the night after Yinggao left, they waited for something they had been waiting for months.

It was a letter that had been thrown in the old place, and when Qi Yi was a little inattentive, it lay there quietly.

In fact, as early as a few days ago, Qi Yi and Hu Hai found that some princes began to complain that since Yinggao had appointed so many major officials in the counties at once, they didn't even consider these well-established Qin princes, and when they began to tell Yinggao's arbitrariness after speaking, the two of them knew that the owner of this letter might have returned to Xianyang City from elsewhere and started to act again.

Although the two of them did not know if these rumors would have a role, they decided after some deliberation that they would not participate in the spread of those rumors.
