Qin Zhan dragged Xiao Lizi's body directly to the well, threw it into the well, and then found a few small splashes on the dock, and spent half a day filling the well.

After Xiao Popi left, Xiao Yuan said coldly, "Fourth Uncle, organize these little Popi, and then send Jinyi Wei to scare the whole family of craftsmen who forged the dragon seal out of Suzhou City." After that, we ordered these little splashes to rob the craftsman halfway, and then we sent the brocade guards to kill all of them, and finally put the blame on those splashes, the brocade guards were just law enforcement killings. ”

Her move is to kill all those who know, which is simply ruthless. Qin Zhan got on the thief ship, and there was no turning back, so he had no choice but to find a few brocade guards and follow Xiao Yuan's plan.

"Fourth uncle, this is a plan to fish in troubled waters. Childe traced it down afterwards, and there was no way to distinguish the authenticity, you should always rest assured! ”

Xiao Yuan looked at the filled well, smiled faintly, and handed the secret fold written by the prince to King Yong to Qin Zhan, "This is the credit I gave to the fourth uncle, before I send out the army, you can take it and ask the prince for credit!" ”

Qin Zhan took the fold and put it in his arms, and had to admire her intelligence and intelligence. So far, this game has been seamless. Because all the key human and physical evidence have been destroyed, even if the crown prince and the king of Yong are brought together for strict interrogation, if they can't find Xiao Lizi, it is a confused account, and they can't be tried.

East Palace

As soon as Zhou Yuji, the governor of Shanxi, received the edict from the capital, he immediately rushed from Shanxi to the capital and entered the East Palace directly.

When the crown prince Zhu Cihong saw Zhou Yuji, his face was immediately full of tears, so he knelt in front of Zhou Yuji, and cried, "Governor Zhou save me!" ”

Zhou Yuji, who was loyal to the court, dared to accept the prince's kneeling, so frightened that he hurriedly knelt opposite him, and said prostrately, "The prince has something to do, but he said, the minister will bow and die with all his might!" ”

Zhu Cihong hurriedly wiped away his tears, and said, "Governor Zhou, Fang Yuan, Governor of Zhejiang, the imperial court treated him well, not only entrusted him with the important task of Governor of Zhejiang, but also gave Princess Kunxing to marry him. I never thought that he had ill intentions, and he actually deceived the king and wanted to usurp the throne and stand on his own. ”

Zhou Yuji was stunned, strictly speaking, Fang Yuan also had the grace of knowing him, if it weren't for Fang Yuan's kind words in front of Chongzhen, he would not have been promoted from the general army of Shanxi to the governor of Shanxi in a short period of time.

Based on his understanding of Fang Yuan, it seemed that Fang Yuan was not a rebellious minister and thief who committed a heinous crime, and asked hesitantly, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Fang Yuan, the governor of Zhejiang, is a concubine of the imperial court, is he really anti-will?" Has the court verified it? ”

Zhu Cihong took out the secret fold sent by King Yong from Nanjing City from his arms and handed it to Zhou Yuji.

Zhou Yuji read the secret fold, and his expression became more and more solemn, "Prince, where did this secret fold come from?" ”

Zhu Cihong hurriedly said, "It was sent by Zhu Cizhi, the prince of Nanjing City, Governor Zhou, Fang Yuan's wolf ambition has been revealed in Jiangnan, and everyone knows about it!" ”

Zhou Yuji respectfully returned the secret fold to Zhu Cihong, and said in a deep voice, "Since Fang Yuan is really a thief courtier, why didn't the imperial court send Inspector Sun from Shandong to crusade?" ”

Zhu Cihong pretended to be pitiful, and said with tears in his eyes, "Inspector Sun is afraid that Fang Yuan's soldiers are strong and strong, and he is afraid of the enemy, and he is unwilling to go south to crusade against Nanzhili. The only thing the imperial court can count on is you, Governor Zhou. ”

Zhou Yuji was annoyed and angry when he heard that Sun Chuanting was avoiding the war, and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, good, since Fang Yuan kept saying that he was willing to negotiate peace with the imperial court, the minister immediately wrote a private letter to Fang Yuan and invited him to come to the capital for peace talks. The so-called monarch wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, no matter what traps there are in the capital, Fang Yuan must also be edicted. If he doesn't come, he is really resentful. ”

Zhu Cihong nodded again and again, with the current relationship between the imperial court and Fang Yuan, it is impossible for Fang Yuan to return to the capital at all, since Zhou Yuji wants to go to verify, it is up to him to verify. If Zhou Yuji could really trick Fang Yuan into coming to the capital and arrest him immediately, it would be the best.

Half a month later, Fang Yuan, who was in Suzhou City, received a letter from Zhou Yuji inviting him to go to the capital for peace talks. Zhou Yuji suddenly made such a request, Fang Yuan was both surprised and in a dilemma.

Go, the capital is now a tiger's den in Longtan, and it is impossible to go; If you don't go, how can you reject Zhou Yuji? After thinking about it, Fang Yuan still decided to refuse Zhou Yuji's invitation in the name of going to Fujian to reorganize the army.

When Fang Yuan's letter arrived in the capital, Zhou Yuji knew that it was a prevarication when he saw it. He also came to the conclusion in his heart, Fang Yuan did have a rebellion, and he was so angry that he tore Fang Yuan's letter to shreds.

Zhu Cihong took the opportunity to say, "Governor Zhou, you should believe it now?" ”

Zhou Yuji knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Since Fang Yuan has rebelled, no matter whether he was kind to the minister before or not, the minister will fight him to the death!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, give the order! ”

Zhu Cihong hurriedly helped him up and said, "Governor Zhou, Fang Yuan's Xuanjia army is indeed strong, facing the enemy head-on, and the damage will inevitably be heavy. My idea is that after Fang Yuan set out to conquer Fujian, when Nanzhili is empty, Governor Zhou will lead the elite Ming army south to recapture Zhezhi! ”

Zhou Yuji gave his hand to the order, "Yes!" The minister immediately went back to rectify the 50,000 elite soldiers in Shanxi, and waited for the order of the imperial court! ”

When Zhou Yuji went back to Shanxi to prepare for the war, Zuo Liangyu also received a secret order from the imperial court, that is, to order the left army to reorganize and fight, and when Fang Yuan attacked Fujian, the imperial court would lead the army south to Nanzhili, and the left army would attack Zhejiang. No matter how many state capitals the left army conquered in Zhejiang, the imperial court was canonized.

Zuo Liangyu was already seriously ill, and he would not share such a confidential letter from the court with the generals, but only summoned his son Zuo Mengeng, so that he read the letter and coughed violently.

Zuo Mengeng asked, "Father, do you think we should obey the order?" ”

Zuo Liangyu took a sip of the potion handed over by the maidservant, and then relieved himself slightly, "There is Fang Yuan sitting in Zhezhi, and our forces can't enter Jiangnan." Since the imperial court wants to crusade against Fang Yuan, this is a godsend opportunity for us to extend our power into Zhezhi! ”

Zuo Mengeng frowned and said, "Father, I'm worried that the imperial court is using our left army as a gunman, instigating us and Fang Yuan to carry it hard, and the court will reap the benefits of the fisherman!" ”

Zuo Liangyuqiang laughed and said, "As a father, he is not a fool, go and make the court angry." We first attacked Fengyang Mansion under the pretext of preparing troops and horses in Hezhou and Chuzhou. As long as the imperial court sends troops to Yangzhou Mansion first, we will send troops across the river. ”

"At the end of the war, Fang Yuan will inevitably return from Fujian to the north. We will not go to face Fang Yuan head-on, and we can even negotiate with Fang Yuan, as long as we are allowed to plunder Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Huzhou, Shaoxing, and Ningbo, we will not participate in the battle between him and the imperial court, and let the Xuanjia army return to the south of Zhili and the imperial court, and we will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. If the imperial court does not send troops, we will continue to attack Fengyang Mansion and expand our territory. ”

Zhejiang's North Five Mansions are the richest five prefectures in Zhejiang, especially Hangzhou, with a population of one million, and the rich merchants and beauties in the city are like clouds, which is simply the most delicious piece of fat. Zuo Liangyu has been coveting it for a long time, and now that the imperial court and Fang Yuan are at war, they just take the opportunity to have a quick meal.

Zuo Mengeng knew that his father's treacherous and cunning was not a rabbit or an eagle, thinking of the carts of white flowers and silver in Hangzhou City, and the fragrant women, he couldn't help licking his lips, laughed and said, "Father Shuai Guo is a clever plan, the child immediately replied to the court, and was willing to send troops together to attack Zhezhi." ”

Zuo Liangyu instructed again, "Only you and I know about this matter, and you must not let other generals know whether to attack Fengyang Mansion or attack Fengyang Mansion." After the imperial court really sent troops, we turned to cross the river to plunder, understand? ”

After such a big call, Zuo Liangyu couldn't catch his breath and lay back on the bed.
