After thousands of years of development, Yongjia City is now the capital of Daqi, and the political and economic center is integrated into one, which has surpassed the old capital Heluo and the capital of Jing Dynasty, and has become the largest city in the world.

There are more than one million residents in the city, and there are countless shops and liquor shops.

Under today's objective conditions, trying to find a specific target in this big city is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. This is also the reason why the Warp Weaving Division knows that there are spies from the two northern Yanjing countries hidden in the city, but there is still nothing to do with the other party.

Especially in the extremely prosperous and lively markets in Beicheng, it has always been a mixed place, and many inconspicuous shops hide hidden secrets.

For example, there is a pharmacy called "Xinglin Pavilion" in Cuiwei Fang.

It's a very common name, a very simple façade, and it's not worth mentioning compared to other shops on the same street.

Lu Shen thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "So this side cadre is the ambush you laid for Jingguo's spies?" ”

The latter suspected that the Lu family was the work of Beiyan, so he launched a detailed interrogation of Lu Shen, and at that time he said several very strange things, including the Yongquanguan offensive planned by Xiao Wangzhi in the eighth year of Jianwu.

Only when they knew Li Duan's physical condition in advance could they take risks in the frontier war.

Lu Shen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But someone with a heart can judge His Majesty's condition from this prescription." ”

"Where's the stuff?"

Lu Shen's mood at the moment was a little complicated.

He remembered hearing about it.

The carriage traveled smoothly towards Miyagi to the south.

That was the first time he entered Guangling City as the young master of the Lu family, and he was taken to meet Su Yunqing by the secret agents of the Warp Weaving Division to meet Su Yunqing in the Guangling Mansion.

"It's natural, so I asked Bian Yin to do a few things. Six years ago, that is, in the early autumn of the eighth year of Jianwu, the Huaizhou Governor's Mansion planned the Yongquanguan offensive, which was actually a joint effort between His Majesty, me and Rong Guogong. At that time, Bian Yin had already established a preliminary trust with Jingguo's spies, and he secretly passed on this plan to the north, which eventually led to the Yongquan Pass offensive being known to the enemy in advance, and our army returned in vain. ”

Qin Zhengdao: "The evidence that Shen Qingzhong's curtain is thin and not repaired, and those problems in the Qingyuan Xue clan, that is, the Right Xiang clan, are all provided to the north by Bian Yin. In the past six years, he has not made many shots, but each time is important, so he has gained the trust of Jingren. Jing Ren took advantage of me a lot through him, and His Majesty has never cared about these things out of trust in me, but I am actually very worried in my heart. Such an important chess piece, if I can't play his role all the time, wouldn't I be a sinner of Daqi? ”

Shopkeeper Tan reluctantly took out a copied prescription from his bosom and handed it to the man.

Although the rank of the cadre is not high, the power in his hands is not small, and his status in the warp weaving department is roughly similar to the imperial history in the court.

At this moment, a complex emotion appeared on Qin Zheng's face.

Lu Shen sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "So the court judged that Tan Dongping was a secret hand that had been arranged a long time ago, and he sent this prescription to the spy in the north through him?" ”

The man glanced at the prescription, then carefully folded the prescription and stuffed it into his arms, and before leaving, he admonished: "Tell your master, rot this matter in your stomach, otherwise no one will be able to save him." ”

Qin Zheng said calmly: "His name is Bian Yin, and there are twelve cadres in the Warp Weaving Division, and he is the third. ”

Lu Shen's eyes condensed slightly.

The carriage slowly stopped, and the voice of the coachman came from outside: "My lord, it's here." ”

Qin Zheng did not deny it.

To his surprise, Qin Zheng shook his head and said, "No." ”

The man in his thirties spoke in a low tone and got straight to the point.

In the cold winter sunshine, Qin Zheng walked in the wide square, looked at the majestic Duancheng Hall in front of him, and said slowly: "Lu Hou, the task of me and the warp weaving department has been completed. Whether this battle can defeat the powerful enemy in the north, and whether it can not let His Majesty's hard work go to waste, depends on the Duke of Rongguo, the Governor of Lidu, Your Excellency, and the soldiers of Daqi. ”

Qin Zheng said calmly: "Yes, but you don't have to worry about the prescription, it is a prescription prescribed by Gui Qiuliang, which has been cross-verified by many imperial doctors, and it will make people test the medicine in advance, and the palace has always been very strict in this regard." ”

He said softly: "At first, His Majesty did not approve of me doing this, because if we want to gain the trust of the Jing people, we will have to pay a great price. But I always believe that the meaning of the existence of the Warp Weaving Division cannot only be aimed at the interior of Daqi, and a thorn in the most critical position may be able to play an extremely important role at certain moments. Your Majesty finally agreed, and I chose Bian Yin after careful consideration. He was born in Huzhou, Jiangnan, no one in his family died under Jing Jun's butcher's knife, his family was relatively poor, his life was very hard, and he was humble and powerful in the warp weaving department, such a person could easily become the target of Jing Guo's spies. ”

That was when he first came to this world, because he was involved in the battle between the Warp Weaving Division and the Northern Prosecutor's Office, and later was appreciated by Su Yunqing, and he specially used his merits to change Lu Shen to a seventh-grade official position.

"My lord said, only this once, there is no next time!"

The reason is not complicated, the real behind-the-scenes owner of Xinglin Pavilion is Tan Dongping, the judge of Tai Hospital, whose status is only below Gui Qiuliang.

Shopkeeper Tan looked nervous, and the man was not surprised, after all, if the matter of the two of them meeting today was exposed, it would inevitably be the end of the family and the extermination.

The two stepped out of the carriage one after another and entered the palace from the Hening Gate.

Lu Shen said with a slightly solemn expression: "That prescription is used by His Majesty?" ”

This was obviously someone inside Daqi who was ventilating to the north, and it was also one of the reasons why Su Yunqing was suspicious of the Lu family at that time.

Qin Zheng immediately left this room with Lu Shen and boarded the carriage waiting here from another narrow street at the back door of the pharmacy.

After thinking about it for a moment, he finally remembered.

Qin Zheng continued: "It's like the attack on the right minister the year before last, I don't know if you still have an impression? ”

Undoubtedly, this was the first and most important step in luring the pair of kings and courtiers from the north to take the bait.

But the business of this pharmacy is very good, and most of their customers have a certain status.

It was only at this moment that he knew what kind of pressure the middle-aged man in front of him was carrying.

Shopkeeper Tan looked at the figure of the thirty-year-old man viciously, and couldn't help but collapse on the ground after he left.

This is obviously not in line with the evaluation of Qin Zheng by the ministers, as well as the absolute trust of the Son of Heaven in him.

Qin Zheng calmed down and said warmly: "I hope so." ”

At about three o'clock in the morning, a man in his thirties, who had an unremarkable appearance, walked into the pharmacy, whispered a few words to his buddy, and was then led to the backyard.

As soon as he thought of this, he looked at the other party's solemn expression, and said bluntly: "Lord Qin, if you want to harvest, you must pay, I believe that you and Bian Ganban have endured for seven years, and there will definitely be a perfect ending." ”

Shopkeeper Tan kowtowed and said, "Thank you for your leniency, the grass people are grateful." ”

The information he knew from his mouth today answered a lot of doubts in Lu Shen's heart, because for a long time in the past, the warp weaving division was a little weak compared to the fine work in the north.

Lu Shen's eyes showed respect, and he said with emotion: "This matter is indeed a little unbelievable, it stands to reason that the Warp Weaving Department is your confidant, and Bian Yin is still a third person, which means that he entered the Warp Weaving Division very early, Jing Ren really believes that they can rebel against such a person?" ”

Lu Shen nodded and said: "I remember, at that time, someone impeached the protégé of the right minister, Shen Qingzhong, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and then a group of people stood up to impeach the right minister on various charges. ”

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy is also surnamed Tan, and he is a distant relative of Tan Dongping, he glanced at the man a few times, and then motioned for the man to step back.

"But it's also hard to gain the trust of the people."

As for this pharmacy and the shopkeeper Tan, they have naturally been under the control of the elite agents of the Warp Weaving Division for a long time.

It's not a fear, it's a fear from the bottom of my heart.

There were two people sitting in the room, the middle-aged man on the left was the warp weaver lifting Qin Zheng, and the one on the right was Lu Shen, Marquis of Shanyang.

Qin Zheng explained: "The Warp Weaving Division did notice the existence of Xinglin Pavilion very early, and also knew that this was Tan Dongping's industry, but it was only filed before, because Tan Dongping did not disclose the secrets of the Tai Hospital, he just used his identity to make some money by digging medicinal materials. This kind of thing is commonplace, Your Majesty actually doesn't care much, as long as the people below keep the bottom line, Your Majesty allows them to take some benefits, after all, when the water is clear, there are no fish. ”

Lu Shen understood this, but if Tan Dongping was not Jing Ren's internal response, how could Qin Zheng ensure that things developed according to his plan?

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately reacted and asked, "Who is the mastermind behind the person who took the prescription?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Shen was slightly stunned.

He struggled to his feet, then walked briskly to a more secluded room next to him, and as soon as he entered the door, he fell to his knees and said profusely, "The grass people have given the medicine to the man as required by Lord Tiju. ”

Lu Shen couldn't help but stop.

This sentence instantly pulled Lu Shen back to a few years ago.

Qin Zheng glanced at the shopkeeper lightly and said, "In the next few days, you have to maintain your previous state, do whatever you have to do, and then the warp weaving department will arrest you and your family's Tan Yuan judge." But you don't have to worry too much, it's just a formality, and you'll stay in the warp weaver's prison for the time being, and I'll release you when the time comes. ”

"I see."

Qin Zheng didn't hide it at all, and said with a smile: "Yes, in fact, this matter is not very complicated. Bian Yin was the internal response to be rebelled by Jing Ren, and in the past few months, he has used his authority to pull Tan Dongping into the water in accordance with the instructions of the north, and probed His Majesty's condition through Tan Dongping. Tan Dongping and his henchmen didn't know anything about it before, so even if they were targeted by spies in the north, these people would not show their flaws. Now it only takes Bian Yin to hand over the prescription to Jingguo's spies, and this matter can be successfully completed. ”

The old man in their mouths naturally refers to Tan Dongping, who was sentenced by the Tai Hospital, and the origin of this prescription is self-evident.

The middle-aged man's temples were slightly white, his eyes were gentle, and he arched his hand and said, "Please." ”

Lu Shen returned the salute and said, "Daqi will win." ”
