After leaving the small courtyard where Duanmu Nanli lived, Duanmu Shuofeng, who returned to his study, rarely did not look at the huge map on the analysis wall as usual, nor did he stay behind the desk to correct the documents sent by his subordinates and deal with official business, but sat directly on the chair and drank tea as soon as he came in, his eyes were empty, as if he was resting.

After a while, the scribe Wu Heng suddenly broke in from outside the door, he was one of the few people who could break into Duanmu Shuofeng's study at any time, which was also the privilege that Duanmu Shuofeng specially allowed him.

Duanmu Shuofeng, who had been resting on the chair, quickly put down the teacup, then stood up and took the initiative to greet him, puzzled: "Mr. is so eager, but why?"

Wu Heng didn't answer, and first walked to the small table where the two of them played on weekdays and sat down, and then he said in a deep voice to the opposite side: "Son, something big has happened in the Jin Kingdom." ”

Duanmu Shuofeng's eyebrows raised, and the whole person suddenly relaxed a lot, if it weren't for Wu Heng sitting here now, he almost wanted to drive people directly, and said quite casually at the moment: "Oh, what's wrong?"

He has great ambitions, he is on the road of kingship, and he has always looked down on the weak and incompetent Jin State next to him from beginning to end, if it weren't for the help of the other party for the time being to balance the strong Liang State on the opposite side, he would have already found his father to write a book and take the initiative to start a war to annex the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop.

Wu Heng glanced at him deeply, sighed in his heart, shook his head slightly, but still explained: "Chen Jing, the son of Chen Xiehu, the great Sima of the Jin Kingdom, brought people into the palace to launch a coup d'état, the great Situ Cai Jing of the Jin State and the Shangguan Ming of the Jin Emperor were killed, and the Great Sikong was forced to abdicate, Chen Jing supported the new emperor to ascend the throne, called himself Dazai, and took all the military and political powers, not only that, but this person also removed almost all of our secret hands and spies in the Jin Kingdom in advance, so the news came back so slowly, this was actually ten days ago. ”

When Duanmu Shuofeng heard this, he was suddenly startled, his eyes widened, and his whole body radiated a dangerous aura, he reached out and pinched a sunspot from the chessboard, and asked in a deep voice: "Why hasn't there been news of this Chen Jing before?"

Wu Heng shook the feather fan in his hand, shook his head and explained to him: "We have always relied on the manpower we have cultivated and the original intelligence of the country to share some resources to obtain information from the outside world, but even if the prince is now the prince, the mayfly is only willing to share some irrelevant information with us, and never gives us a chance to contact their spies. ”

This is not that he is shirking responsibility, but just telling the truth, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, no matter how great his Wu Heng's ability is, it is impossible to make something out of nothing, make people out of soil, and scatter beans into soldiers, especially these loyal and reliable dead scouts, who are one in a hundred talents, and it is impossible to find someone who can do it.

These people not only have to be determined, absolutely loyal to the court and the master, but also to ensure that they are agile enough, improvised, and able to transmit information to the court in all kinds of impossible ways, but also need to have a keen sense of smell, not afraid of death, and need to complete the lurking or transfer before the enemy notices, if they are unfortunately captured, they will commit suicide immediately, if they fail to commit suicide, under the torture of the enemy, coercion and temptation, they must not tell the information of any harmful organization, all kinds of excellent qualities have accumulated, and hundreds of heavy investigation and tests have all passed the test, before they can be entrusted with important tasks and released to other countries, which is far better than ordinary people.

The most important thing is that these people often need the intelligence yamen to select and cultivate for a long time, often for decades, even if they are cultivated, they are thrown to various countries, and it takes a long time to really take root and start to obtain and transmit information, after all, you are an outsider, as soon as you come, you will explore everywhere, and fools also know that you have a problem, and the real spy is in one place for more than ten years, and even after having a formal identity, he can slowly integrate, gain the trust of the people around him, and start to pass on useful information back, all of which take a long time。

He, Wu Heng, is not a god, and there is no way to shrink the efforts of others for decades into a few days.

The "mayfly" he mentioned is the intelligence yamen of the Weiguo court, which is the same as the Tianluo and earth network of the Liang Kingdom, these yamen are under the direct jurisdiction and control of the emperor of the current dynasty, except for the Liang Kingdom, which let the crown prince Gu Cang take over directly, no other countries have such a heroic emperor.

After all, this is a sword hidden in the shadows, killing people without blood, once it is missing, anyone will have trouble sleeping, even if Duanmu Shuofeng is favored, and even if he is made the prince of the East Palace, the mayfly cannot be touched by him in advance, people just have this confidence, and when he succeeds to the throne, the other party will be equally loyal to him, so then again, such a mayfly is liked by him, and it is indeed not to blame people for adhering to principles in this regard.

It is already very rare to be able to share some information with this side in his own face, and it is impossible for him to also have the detailed information and direct contact rights of spies in various places, which is too much.

Duanmu Shuofeng naturally understood these truths, he was just a little annoyed, after all, in his opinion, all forces should have surrendered to him, and no red tape or bullshit rules should be a reason, because he is the future emperor of the country! He will be the greatest emperor in the history of the country! No one can hinder him!

"Even if Mr. says so, this person is the son of Da Sima, and his father is one of the three princes of the Jin Kingdom, and as his family, he should have someone to monitor him. ”

Wu Heng sighed: " Alas, Chen Jing is not very old, but his scheming is too deep, and his means are too high, I even suspect that he has put his hand into the mayfly, otherwise how can he avoid the mayfly's hands, the sight of all the spies, a few years ago, the mayfly for this person, only lingering in the Qinglou gambling house, the sound of dogs and horses, unbearable comments, who would have thought that this person would have such ability and determination, think that the Jin State Situ Cai Jing, although he is a traitor to the country, but in the end he has been an official for decades, this basic vigilance is still there, and he was taken down by this person together with the old emperor Shangguan Ming, and coerced the Son of Heaven to order the ministers, in the name of these two, to stabilize the situation, so that the officials do not dare to move, and then forcibly forced Shangguan Ming to cut himself and appoint him to him, and finally eradicated Cai Jing and his die-hard protégés, and now this person has become the actual ruler of the Jin Kingdom, and even the last one he supported was a young child who had not yet been governor, claiming to be the emperor's father, and the power was monopolized, until this time, no one dared to resist him, so the Jin Kingdom should indeed die!"

Duanmu Shuofeng shook his hands, spilled the powdered chess pieces in his palm to the ground, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed: "The last time I went to the Jin Kingdom, I should have met him a few times, but I never saw this person's wolf ambitions, it's a pity." ”

Wu Heng was relieved: "If he only has the power of coup d'état, it's fine, it's just another Cai Jing, and observe whether this person has the talent to govern the world and the country, and then make a decision." ”

Duanmu Shuofeng turned his head, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's okay, now that the Liang Kingdom is powerful, the Jin Kingdom can only join forces with us to fight the enemy for the time being, this ability, the stronger the better, even if it is okay to share some more benefits to him in the future, but this Chen Jing starts now, it can be regarded as a feud with the royal family of the entire Jin Kingdom, who can tolerate a courtier riding on his head as a prestige?" When the seeds are planted, sooner or later there will be a time for them to blossom and bear fruit, and then I only need to incite Shangguan's family to cooperate with the outside world, and naturally I can easily eradicate him, and now I will treat him as an ally, and in a few days, I will find an envoy to congratulate me, and by the way, I will observe the situation in the Jin Kingdom again. ”

The scribe Wu Heng also nodded in agreement: "Now that the situation in the south is tense, he doesn't dare to mess around again, killing Cai Jing and Shangguan Ming is already the limit, what these two people do, the sky is angry and resentful, and there are many people who have offended, killing these two people, he can still stabilize the situation, but if the country changes hands, it will inevitably be chaotic, no matter who takes advantage of it, it will be difficult for the Jin Kingdom to turn over, so he will not mess around at this time, and when the situation is stable, this Chen Jing may not do something anti-guest-oriented, and then make a decision." ”

Duanmu Shuofeng grabbed a white child and said, "At least this is not a headache for us now, I will repair a book later, present it to Chen Jing, and test his attitude." ”

Wu Heng is also in favor of this, and he can't help this person stabilize the internal situation of the entire Jin Kingdom in the future, selling this Chen Jing a big favor, there will naturally be a return in the future, and a person with real talent and learning has taken the position, which is also very beneficial to the current situation in the south, and it is still difficult for Wei Guo to fight against the powerful Liang State, even if he has his help, it is also extremely risky, and now he can get a reliable ally, which is naturally the best.

The lesser of two evils, he would rather the Jin Kingdom sit big now than let the entire alliance against the Liang Kingdom break down.

"By the way, have you ever heard that Liangguo has recently purchased a large number of our country's Wei Jin?"

Duanmu Shuofeng nodded, and said suspiciously: "I have indeed heard of it, but this is just that the rich people of the family over there in Liangguo are crazy, and the people can make more money, and we have no reason to stop it, depending on what Mr. means, is there something else going on in this matter?"

Wu Heng shook the feather fan lightly and said, "There is a big problem!"

Seeing that Duanmu Shuofeng was waiting for the next step with a serious face, Wu Heng explained: "No matter how famous the splendid silk of my country is, it will not make the people over there in Liangguo so crazy, not to mention that Jiangzhou, Haizhou and other places in Liangguo are all places where silk and silk are produced, why take the risk and buy it from my country at a price ten times or even a hundred times?"

Duanmu Shuofeng frowned and said: "Sir said so, it is indeed a problem, but the silk of my country is indeed very famous in the south, and it is not that no one else has come to buy it in previous years。。。。。。 ”

Wu Heng said bitterly: "Son, the focus is on the quantity! The amount of this purchase is too large, I have received the news a few days ago, and now in the several counties next to the south, no one is planting rice anymore, and all of them have been replaced with mulberry trees to raise silkworms and silk!"

Duanmu Shuofeng is not a stupid person, and he is even more transparent at the moment, and he is shocked.

"This is the trick of the people of Liangguo!"
