……

The Imperial Study of Kangguo Palace.

"What?"

Kandi Huo Ran stood up, his eyes widened, and his face was full of consternation.

"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister received a secret report from His Royal Highness King Yi, and this is indeed the case." Zuo Zhangheng replied respectfully.

"Where's the report? Present. ”

"Whoa." Zuo Zhangheng took out the thin paper roll from his sleeve and handed it to Cao Dali.

Without waiting for Cao Dali to inspect it first, Kandi couldn't wait to grab it, and waved his hand to Zuo Zhangheng by the way: "Sit." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zuo Zhangheng sat down.

There is a lot of content on the paper, and Kandi has taken half a cup of tea seriously.

Liang Jiu raised his head and sighed: "Mo Chen has a heart." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I heard that His Royal Highness King Yi was seriously injured and almost died in order to get this secret report, so I really did my best."

When Kandi heard this, he looked at Zuo Zhangheng with a smile: "I really do my best, but it's hard to say for whom." ”

Zuo Zhangheng was just about to defend himself in fear, and Kandi waved his hand:

"It's just a joke, Mo Chen's child's thoughts about Di'er's girl can be seen by everyone, how much Di'er has done secretly for Da Kang over the years, outsiders don't know, how can I not know? It's a pity that I only have a halberd under my knees who is the same age as her, but the halberd's talent is dull and really not worthy of your spirit daughter. Heng'er is smart but too young...... It's a pity, it's a pity, but the fertilizer water is going to flow into the fields of outsiders. ”

Emperor Kang said joking things, but Zuo Zhangheng didn't dare to echo it, and said with a straight face: "The old minister's daughter is stubborn, and she is definitely not worthy of His Royal Highness King De, Your Majesty is too loving." ”

Kandi shook his head helplessly, and said stupidly: "Don't pretend, I won't take your heart, you can rest assured." ”

Zuo Zhangheng's face softened slightly, and he said gently: "Actually, he is not an outsider, Chen'er is not only a disciple of Lao Chen, but also a king with a different surname from Dakang, and also a nephew of His Majesty." ”

Kandi sighed with a slight regret: "I really can't imagine that the weak proton at the beginning would have such a long day. If I had known earlier, I would have taken care of him more or less in those years, and I would have been closer. ”

"Not only did Your Majesty not expect it, but the old minister was even more so. But back then, the country raised troops against Dakang, and his lives were devastated, and he was that kind of identity. Your Majesty has done his best to save his life in Changping City. ”

"That's it, don't talk about this," Kandi stopped Zuo Zhangheng's persuasion, and raised the secret report in his hand: "What do you think about the content above?" ”

Zuo Zhangheng pondered: "If the secret report is true, it proves that the old minister's judgment is not wrong, and the Sinai political examination is really not ambitious." All of this was done by King Sinaichuan, who claimed to have never interfered in politics. ”

"Yes, over the years, Dakang has grown stronger and stronger, and the national strength is strong. I let my guard down, I really shouldn't. Now even the news that the lord of the country has been set aside, and the prince is under house arrest, has to be transmitted by Mo Chen from the country, which is my fault. ”

Zuo Zhangheng hurriedly got up: "Your Majesty said this, although the prince of Nanyu is young, he is resourceful and thoughtful. Most of the spies and meticulous work we sent out were folded in his hands. If there is really a fault, it is also the fault of the Espionage Department, Your Majesty has every opportunity, how can he cover everything? Not even saints. ”

Kandi looked at Zuo Zhangheng with a tired face: "I am extremely glad that I admitted my mistake in time and saved the teacher. If it weren't for that, Dakang would have fallen apart long ago, and I would have become a sinner for eternity. ”

Zuo Zhangheng's eyes flashed with tears, his words were choked, and he reached the ground: "The minister is afraid, and His Majesty will not give up, and the minister will die to repay him." ”

"Get up quickly, I'm afraid I'm getting old, and I've been sighing a lot lately." Kandi stepped forward and helped Zuo Zhangheng up.

"Don't talk about this, since the secret report mentions that Sinaichuan wants to seek the emperor's help and seize the position of the lord of the Southern Palace, it is not expected that the war will spread to Dakang for the time being. But Sinaichuan, this person, even his own brother can betray, he must not be a person in a corner of peace, if he succeeds, there will be a battle between Dakang and Nanyu sooner or later. ”

Zuo Zhangheng nodded again and again, after reading the secret report with Zuo Di yesterday, he also thought so.

As Zuo Di grew older, Zuo Zhangheng did not treat her as a child for a long time, and subconsciously ignored her identity as a woman in her boudoir.

No way, have you ever seen a woman who can explain the topographical features of the country without leaving home?

After reading the secret report, he and his daughter also talked about it, and the two had the same idea, since Nan Yu was currently busy with infighting, and Sinaiyong was under house arrest, this was the best time to install spies.

……

Speaking of Dakang's espionage department, it belongs to the Criminal Department.

In fact, the emergence of this spy department has a close relationship with Zuo Di.

In the past, Dakang only had the imperial history platform, in charge of supervising the matter, although there were spies between countries, but there was no system, most of them were served by military scouts, and there were few activities, and only when there were large-scale battles.

Zuo Di inadvertently learned about this from Li Qiao's mouth once, and he couldn't help but think of the agent in his previous life.

As a posterity, she knew how important it was to grasp the military, political, and economic strength of the hostile country in a timely manner.

She put forward the idea of the spy department and conveyed it to Xiao Zhen to increase her bargaining chips for the reserve.

The idea was very good at that time, Xiao Zhen raised the matter in front of Kandi, which led to the establishment of the Espionage Department, and then divided this department into Yushitai, which happened to be under the jurisdiction of Li Qiao.

It's a pity that the foreplay was done very well, and Kandi Longyan was happy, and he agreed on the spot.

But the follow-up development was unexpected by Zuo Di, the Espionage Division was indeed established, but it did not fall into the hands of Li Qiao, but was forcibly seized by the Criminal Department on the grounds that the power of Yushitai was too large.

Zuo Di choked his wrist, Cui Guangyuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was a member of the Dewang faction, and he was fighting against Xiao Zhen, so he naturally didn't pay much attention to this newly established spy department.

So Zuo Di could only watch this extremely important department, due to the lack of attention and inaction of the Criminal Department, it became chicken.

In addition to the spies who went to the country, because of Mo Chen's escort, there were still occasional secret reports. Needless to say, it was demolished by Sinaion.

And the spies sent to Han are like meat buns beating dogs...... No, there was still a movement in the meat bun beating the dog, and the spies sent to Hanguo directly did not even make a splash, so there was no news at all, and contact was completely lost.

……

"The old minister had the courage to ask His Majesty to reorganize the Espionage Department, and after this incident, he realized the importance of espionage more and more. However, the Criminal Department has always left the Espionage Department to its own devices, and has not attached any importance to it at all. Now that the civil strife in Nanyu is the best opportunity to insert people, the old minister believes that the Criminal Department is not qualified to continue to be in charge of the Espionage Department. ”

Zuo Zhangheng stood up and stood still, bowed solemnly.

Kandi turned his back and quietly looked at Zuo Zhangheng with a solemn face, and said quietly for a long time: "Does the teacher really value Zhen'er so much?" ”

Zuo Zhangheng's pupils shrank, but he still insisted: "The old minister doesn't value anyone, the old minister is only loyal to His Majesty and loyal to Dakang." The Espionage Division was originally initiated by Princess Shining, and only by handing over the Espionage Division to its initiators can the greatest value be realized. ”

Kandi didn't speak for a long time, only looked at Zuo Zhangheng fixedly.

After a long time, Zuo Zhangheng's arms were a little sore, and only then did he hear Kandi's voice, which was as calm and heavy as Jin Ge's clanging.

"Passing on my will, Princess Shining Xiao Zhen, Imperial Doctor Li Qiao, Criminal Department Shangshu Cui Guangyuan, and Director of the Espionage Department Liu Dian will enter the palace immediately!"

"Whoa!"

Cao Dali responded very loudly.
