Chapter 110: Behind the Scenes
The soldiers and horses of the brigade arrived from the avenue, and the two generals Yu and Du, who were in charge of the spring hunting and inspection of Wenshan, were suspended on the spot, and the Chu Emperor wanted to appoint a new person to investigate the ambush in Wenshan today.
No one recommended themselves, and all the generals present were silent at first, this is by no means a beautiful errand, the water in it is too deep.
And the Duke of Lu Guo stood up at the right time, and he asked Zuo Duyuan to temporarily take up this position.
Emperor Chu gladly agreed, and Fang Dan immediately began to search the vicinity with a group of soldiers and horses.
Everyone who was hunting on the mountain slowly returned to the bottom of the mountain, and Zuo Mingli and Zuo Mingche were called over by Emperor Chu, and Emperor Chu had something to talk to the two of them alone.
The rest of the people retreated to rest, and they were told not to leave for the time being, and that someone would come and question them one by one.
Emperor Chu seemed to be very angry with these two princes, and his scolding voice spread far away and was heard by many people.
Zhong Liwu took Situ Xi and Zhong Limo back to the place where everyone gathered, and Zhong Liwu threw himself straight into Situ Xi's arms and hugged him tightly.
Situ Xi patted her on the back and looked at her side, whispering and fluttering butterflies beside her.
"I'm fine."
Zhong Limo glanced at the two of them lightly, did not speak, and pulled Zhong Limo to Li's side.
"Mo'er, it's time for a new talisman." Li took out a brand-new vermilion talisman from a small bag in his hand, and Zhong Limo also took out an identical talisman from his arms and exchanged it with Li's hand.
"If the intimacy is enough, take Mo'er back first, don't worry about the matter here, if there is a follow-up, I will send someone to inform you."
A steady voice sounded in his ears, and Zhong Lixuan hurriedly left from Situ Xi's arms, and Situ Xi couldn't help but look at Zhong Liwu suspiciously.
"Can we go? His Majesty said that no one was allowed to leave. ”
"Those two highnesses said that you did your best to protect them, you are heroes, if you don't even have the right to go home, what kind of heroes are you."
"It's good to rest when I go back these days, and I've done a good job today. I heard that you are interested in opening a restaurant? Go ahead and let me know if you have any difficulties. ”
"When you have time, you can pack your things and pack your bags, and you should need to stay for a while when you go to Linwa City."
Hearing Zhong Liwu talk to him about some life-related things, Situ Xi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, this father-in-law looks indifferent on weekdays, but in fact, he is not really completely unkind.
"Father-in-law, speaking of which, the younger son-in-law is not very familiar with the specific work that this regimental training envoy is responsible for, if I really become a deputy at that time, I may cause chaos to a certain highness."
"You don't have to worry about this, I will send someone to assist you, and you have the right to be distracted."
Oh? Situ Xi's eyes lit up, he would send a helper to himself, isn't this the deputy of the deputy, that dare to be kind, he has become gold-plated.
"In this case, thank you father-in-law." Situ Xi gave his hand, and then left with Zhong Lisu, Zhong Limo and a group of entourage.
……
Xuan'an City, on the city wall.
There were sentries every 100 meters above the thick and towering walls, but there was a section of the wall that was unguarded.
Next to this beacon tower, Zhong Liyi, who was supposed to be on patrol, was standing with a middle-aged man with a feather fan, and the two of them looked at the distant scenery together.
"Eldest son, the matter is done, but none of the eleven people escaped, which is a pity." This person was Wei Ling, and he smacked his lips, with a little regret in his tone.
"It doesn't matter, it's meaningful for them to be able to play their own value." Zhong Liyi put his forearm on the wall, "In this way, my sister-in-law can be regarded as able to gain the trust of the Chen family's siblings." ”
"It's just a side benefit." Wei Ling clasped his hands.
"No way, we can't just watch the transaction between Your Majesty and Li Guo complete so smoothly, the batch of military funds provided by Li Guo is really too rich, and I don't know what Your Majesty promised them."
"Coincidentally, a few days ago, we also happened to encounter the assassination of His Royal Highness King Geng, and we can still use this matter to cover up a thing or two." Wei Ling smiled, this is indeed a coincidence, thinking about it, for Emperor Chu, it can really be said that it is a wave of unevenness.
"Well, remember to prepare a thin gift later, and I will send it to Uncle Zhong when the time comes, unlike us, he is an upright person, and this time it will be difficult for him."
"I understand." Wei Ling nodded, and then suddenly sighed, "I heard that Chen Pu was not injured, which is also a pity. ”
Zhong Liyi also sighed lightly with him, this matter is really difficult, they just want to sabotage the transaction between Li and Chu this time, they can't make a big deal and make the two countries hateful, and they can't do it too simply so that the two sides can't quarrel.
"I think I underestimated Chen Zhishu's martial arts, I have long heard that she is extraordinary, and even many famous generals in the Li Kingdom are not her opponents...... But that's enough, if it's almost hot, I'll find a way to fan it later. ”
"That's it. The other is related to the Fang family, they have been getting too close to those envoys of the Li State recently, I heard that one day the deputy envoy of the Li State Mission was still spending the night in the Lu State Mansion, and this matter will also trouble the eldest prince to investigate. ”
"Fang family......" Zhong Liyi muttered, "They can't afford to make any waves." ”
After muttering for a while, Zhong Liyi turned his head to look at Wei Ling again.
"Mr. Wei, I still have something for you to help with, my sister-in-law is going to Linwa City to take up a post in a few days, he lacks some smart brains under his hands, do you have a suitable candidate over there?"
Zhong Liyi has a general understanding of the people around Situ Xi, there is no shortage of good guards around him, but there seems to be no spiritual person who can help run errands and give advice.
"Hmm...... The eldest son, the dog recently returned to Xuan'an City, why don't you arrange for him to go? ”
