Chapter 70: Trickery and Perseverance (2)

Shi Xiushen accepted Niu Yuan's order, but he knew in his heart that he couldn't wade through these troubled waters, so as not to make it difficult to get out in the future. He handed over full authority to the deputy director to prohibit Lu Jishan for investigation. Lu Jishan has always been handy in terms of espionage, and in the past four or five days, he has handed in a satisfactory answer to his boss.

The prince's plan was completely presented in front of Niu Yuan's eyes, but the name Zhang Longlu had not yet been exposed, which made the latter think about the cold words. But he still couldn't think about it, why did the prince insist on going to Denglai, how could there be his accomplices on the remote seaside?

He cautiously reported the news to Liu Zhennian, who was not surprised: "I don't know about these people in the asari? They all hate me to the core, even if the prince and the emperor have no intention of doing it, they have to force it. ”

Yan Wen was also present at this time, and after thinking for a moment, he said to Niu Yuan: "The prince has always been cowardly and indecisive, but Shi Si can stop his scheme, and then with a little intimidation, he will not dare to act recklessly." ”

After Niu Yuan heard this, he just nodded his head attentively, thoughtful, and refused to retreat.

"Just do what Yan Xiang said." Liu Zhennian was afraid that he didn't hear it, so he reminded him.

"There's an offensive word in the next place, I don't know if I should say it......" Niu glanced at them a few times.

"Huh?" Liu Zhennian frowned and hesitated, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Since the prince intends to ascend to Lai, it means that there must be traitors plotting to cause chaos there. If you let it go this time, I'm afraid you will raise a tiger. It's better to plan and coerce Your Majesty to go out to Denglai to find out the culprit, and you can also use this to purge the prince's henchmen and prepare for your future great cause. ”

Yan Wen reprimanded urgently: "How can Prime Minister Feng gamble with Liu Gong's life? If he succeeds, we can't afford it! ”

"Haha, I think Bong Xiang said it well!" Liu Zhennian patted his thigh and laughed heartily, "Since this official entered the Beijing Division, he has been sitting in the hall on weekdays, and he is very bored. If I, as a martial artist, have to sit in the middle of the court, and I can't fight to the death with the enemy, won't I spend half my life in vain! ”

"It's settled," he stood up without waiting for Yan Wen to speak, "let them go first, and wait until Denglai ...... I will never spare these traitors! ”

Under the order of the crown prince, Lan Yuan has already prepared a recital for Denglai. For the sake of safety, the crown prince handed over the three royal family officials to the ban.

Rong Qing said: "When the saint drives out of the city, there is no cronies to rely on, and it is easy to be held hostage by traitors. The prince is in charge of the country with peace of mind, and the old man should go to Dengzhou with His Majesty and come back with the head of the willow thief! ”

Cun Zhao knew that he was a brave and unscrupulous person, so he hurriedly advised: "Uncle Cousin, the prince still needs a few loyal ministers to help him, your status is still important, you shouldn't take such a risk." ”

Tai Su knocked on the table leg a few times with a wooden crutch, and sighed twice: "Rong Qing has this courage, it is the honor of Sheji, why do you want to ruin his interest?" Besides, we are the emperor of the royal family, what can he do with us as a martial artist? ”

Cun Zhao was a junior in the end, so he had to keep his mouth shut and didn't dare to refute.

On this day, the prince led his ministers to the emperor's dormitory to bow down, handed a book to the chief eunuch Shen Jing, and kowtowed: "The coastal defense in the Denglai area is not effective, the boats are not of good material, it is difficult to resist the sea, and even the nearby fishermen dare not go into the water, which is extremely damaging. Now in the first month of the calendar, everything is happy, and the sons can't bear to see that there is a place for the Holy Grace to be bathed, and there are people in the world. Therefore, please Your Majesty go out on patrol, parade the soldiers of Denglai, one to raise the prestige of the country, and the other to protect the people, hoping to be cut. ”

"What did the prince say?" The emperor was silent for a moment, and his voice came from inside the palace.

"Your Highness is wise, and the ministers are unattainable." First, a few officials took the lead, and then the ministers echoed in unison.

"You've thought better than I do," the cold voice continued, "Quasi-play." ”

There was no obstruction in the whole process, which made the prince feel that something was wrong, but he still dispelled this thought as soon as possible.

In the following days, the court was very busy inside and outside, mobilizing the people and horses to go on patrol, and sending people to inform the governor and governor of Denglai to prepare for the pick-up.

The governor of that place sat in the Laizhou Mansion, and the governor was in the Dengzhou Mansion, and the two did not live in the same place, so the envoy made a big trip before arriving at the city of Penglai.

The name Zhang Longlu is not unfamiliar to the people of Liu Dang, he was originally from Jiangnan, because he supervised the construction of ships and trained the navy for many years, and was transferred to Zhengnan by Liu Zhennian, so he began to follow the latter and gradually became a confidant. He is not a pure-hearted person, Zhang Longlu actively curryed favor with Niu Yuan and Yan Wen for a period of time after that, making his status leap forward, and he began to can't help but use power for personal gain. He even installed his son in the army, responsible for supervising the transportation of military rations, and occasionally gave him a little military merit. Who knew that on the way to withdraw the army, the officers and troops in the rear were intercepted by the barbarians, and his son threw down his troops and fled, and was cut off by Liu Zhennian regardless of public and private interests.

Although Longlu gritted his teeth at Zhennian, he couldn't bear the many interests of the Liu Party here, and after waiting for a few years, he finally became the governor of the governor by virtue of his past feelings.

He was thinking about accepting the seventh concubine at the moment, and when he heard that the imperial court envoy was visiting, he put other things behind him and hurriedly went out of the hall to greet him.

"The imperial court has not sent an envoy here for several years, why is it today?" He laughed and sneered, revealing the yellow teeth in his mouth.

"I have come by order to deliver the edict." And the messenger told him about the great reading of Denglai.

Zhang Longlu was stunned for a while, his eyes darkened: "Ah...... Is the Governor ready to take over? ”

"The Governor only told me that you are the Governor, and it is up to you to decide the affairs of the soldiers. He will serve the emperor for one day, and the rest will be handed over to you. ”

'These things are really going to shirk responsibility......

"Your Excellency?"

"Alas," Zhang Longlu found himself distracted, "If the emperor wants to read the water master in Dengzhou, it will really be an unexpected joy for the governor." This governor should serve the emperor with all his might, in order to repay the great kindness! ”

The envoy smiled and bowed away, and Governor Zhang sent someone to send him away.

While he was worried, his wife came from the back room and asked him, "The court...... Ready for us to take over? ”

"Hey," Zhang Longlu turned around irritably, "Women, what do you know!" Get out! ”

His wife still didn't listen, and continued to lean: "You are so depressed, aren't you afraid of Liu ......?"

Zhang Longlu glared at her angrily, as if he was about to scold, but suddenly changed his face and sighed.

"I haven't had anything to do with that guy for a few years, and now I suddenly coerce the emperor to come and read the name of the big name, which will harm my heart...... We're afraid of a catastrophe! ”
