Chapter 90: The Heart of the Bottom of the Ocean
Hearing the sound, Bai Maxiao hurriedly came to the window, but saw that the window in the next room was really broken, and a figure flickered downstairs and ran into the distance.
Looking at that figure, it should be Yungui.
It looks like she woke up in the middle of the night and fled in a hurry.
Since he woke up, he has encountered so many things, and he has not had time to ask about Yungui, where did she go that night, why did she come back in disgrace, and why she fought as soon as she saw the number plate in Bai Maxiao's hand, and even almost killed him.
With these questions, he turned around, but saw that Nan Suxuan was still sitting at the table, such a big movement was still quiet, and this bearing was worthy of the identity of the mother of this country.
"Uncle Shi, the clouds return to her......"
"I know what you want to ask. Nan Suxuan interrupted him, and suddenly called out the door, "Xiaohai." β
The door was pushed open, and Wang Hai stood respectfully and uprightly outside the door, I don't know when he had been waiting here, which really startled Bai Maxiao.
"What do you command?"
"The death of Hua Li, the old gang leader of the Hanako Gang, how is the investigation?"
Wang Hai bowed his hand and reported respectfully, "After investigation by his subordinates, the death of Na Hua Li was committed by the people of the Jiaojiao Gang in Nalei Prefecture, and the purpose was to snatch the license plate. β
Nan Suxuan nodded slowly, it seemed that she had expected it, "Why is the disappearance of the woman surnamed Yun?"
After investigation, the woman surnamed Nayun did not enter the city after she disappeared from the Hanako Gang station outside the city, and did not return to the city until the afternoon of the next day. The subordinates speculated that the woman surnamed Yun witnessed Hua Li's death that night, but the murderer did not expect that the license plate was not on Hua Li, and the woman surnamed Yun fled with the number plate when she saw that the situation was not good, hid outside the city for the night, and returned to the city the next day. β
"That's not right. Bai Maxiao immediately retorted, "When I looked at her at the time, it was obvious that she had lost her license plate, so she wanted to snatch the piece in my hand." But if the license plate is really in the hands of the murderer, why not kill her?"
In Wang Hai's memory, the people who dared to interrupt when he reported to Niangniang, except for the emperor, this Bai Ma Xiao was the second person, and even Nangong Yu never interrupted, so he glared at him at this time and didn't say a word.
It wasn't until Nan Suxuan nodded that he replied, "This is just a subordinate's speculation, and the specific situation needs to be further investigated." The subordinates are incompetent, please punish the mother. β
Nan Suxuan smiled and nodded, "You've done a great job." Did you send someone to keep an eye on her tonight?"
"Yes. β
"She just broke out of the window, you know?"
"Yes, the spies have followed, and she can't escape her mother's grasp. β
Nan Suxuan nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Bai Maxiao, and continued, "Then you can take Fan'er to her." β
Both of them were startled, looking at her stunned, not knowing what to mean.
But Nam Suxuan didn't ask for their opinions, but ordered, "Be sure to protect the safety of mortals." β
"Yes, my subordinates obey. Although it was strange, Wang Hai had never had the habit of questioning, so he accepted the order without hesitation.
Nan Suxuan turned to Bai Maxiao and said, "Didn't you say that there is only one day? β
Bai Maxiao didn't understand what her intentions were, but her words always contained irresistible power, which made him have no time to object, and he agreed.
"Go, I wait for your good news. β
It wasn't until he followed Wang Hai out of the inn that Bai Maxiao reacted and asked, "That'...... Xiaohai ......"
"Only four people in my life have ever called me that. Wang Hai didn't look at him, but walked forward by himself, without looking back, and his tone was full of banter.
Bai Maxiao asked curiously, "Which four?"
"The first one is naturally the emperor. The second and third are the mother and the county lord. As for the fourth...... It's a father-in-law I was with when I first entered the palace. β
Bai Maxiao was stunned for a moment, "That's ...... How?"
"How's that? Later, my father-in-law was poisoned by me. β
"What?!"
"Of course, there are charges. But that was after he died. Wang Hai looked at Bai Maxiao, who was confused and a little scared, and smiled maliciously, "First cut and then play, imperial power concession, this is the West Factory." β
Bai Maxiao couldn't help but gasp, what he said summed up in nothing more than one sentence - "Don't call me Xiaohai, otherwise you will die." β
But after he went around like this, it made Bai Maxiao feel an eerie coolness.
"Wang ...... Wang Dugong ......"
Wang Hai looked at him with a satisfied smile, his expression was very natural, as if the conversation just now didn't exist, "What's the matter, Brother Mu?"
Looking at his amiable face, Bai Maxiao was speechless for a while, as if he was thinking about why he had that creepy feeling just now, as if that feeling didn't match the current Wang Hai at all, and even made Bai Maxiao wonder if it was his own delusion.
After adjusting his mentality for a long time, he finally spoke, "Uncle Shi...... Why did you ask me to go with you to her?"
Of course, Wang Hai didn't know this, but he didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know what kind of person Niangniang is?"
Shiroma shook his head.
"Although Niangniang is in the harem, she has the intelligence of the world, and she is known as the 'Queen Mother of Da Mingluo'. β
The Empress Dowager Luo that Wang Hai said was naturally the Empress Dowager Luo of the Hua Dynasty in the book that Nangong Yu read, but this is not such a person in the history books that Bai Maxiao studied, but it seems that there is no need to understand this allusion, just the four words "Megatron Chaoye" are enough to explain her status.
The dynasties of ancient China were very sensitive to the politics of the harem, and this Nan Suxuan was able to do this, which shows that she is not an ordinary woman.
"I remember that the harem is generally not allowed to interfere in politics, and she must be very powerful if she can do this. β
"That's nature. Although Niangniang is known as one of the 'four beauties in the world', she did not charm the emperor by beauty, but by real wisdom. β
Nan Suxuan's beauty, Bai Ma Xiao can see it, after all, as long as people are not blind, they can see it. But her wisdom, Bai Ma Xiao has not yet comprehended.
Wang Hai continued, his tone full of admiration, "Niangniang has great wisdom, she can balance the hundreds of officials in the court and the central government with her own strength, and she is Your Majesty's virtuous helper. Everything she does has her reasons, others don't need to ask, as long as they follow orders, it will definitely come naturally. β
After saying this for a long time, even you don't know, and you are not allowed to ask me?
This little eunuch is really very talking, although the ancients liked to go around in circles when talking, but this guy inevitably went around too much.
The two of them were talking, and they had already come to the city gate of Guangzhou, and at this time, the curfew had already passed the moment when the gate was closed, and the soldiers guarding the gate saw these two people and said solemnly, "Who is wandering here in the middle of the night?!"
Wang Hai stepped forward unhurriedly and said very familiarly, "Commander Li, Mrs. Zun is about to give birth, she must be anxious and excited at this moment, right?"
Bai Ma Xiaoxin said that this guy knows a lot of people, and he knows a soldier guarding the city, no wonder the intelligence network is so powerful.
Who knew that Commander Li was stunned, "Who are you? How do you know that my wife is about to give birth?!"
Bai Maxiao was very surprised, he didn't expect that these two people didn't know each other, could it be that the situation in Commander Li's family was also found out by Xichang?
"The duty of the West Factory is to monitor all the officials in the DPRK and China, up to the head of the cabinet, down to a guard in the county government, all within the scope of the West Factory's surveillance, you are the commander of the soldiers guarding the city, the official position is not big, it is not small, and it is naturally under our control. β
Commander Li was stunned when he said this, although he didn't show anything that could prove his identity, but seeing his official uniform and bearing, it was simply undoubted.
"You are...... Xichang Wang Dugong?!"
"Commander Lee has good eyesight. β
This is a good eyesight, the greetings just now are clearly showing their intelligence like a few treasures, and it is not difficult to guess at all.
In the entire imperial court, except for the West Factory, who else is so bored to investigate the family background of a soldier defending the city!
Commander Li waved his hand again and again, "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be...... Wang Dugong came here late at night, I don't know if it's ......"
"On the order of Niangniang, go out of the city to investigate the case. The time is urgent, and the incident happened suddenly, and it will be convenient to promulgate the documents out of the city in the future. β
Li Tongling hesitated slightly, and then said without any doubts, "That's natural, Wang Dugong please ......."
"Thank you, Commander Lee. Wang's life creed is 'you help me, I will help you', since Li Tong is convenient, he is Wang's friend. Then I won't report your dereliction of duty to Your Majesty. β
After Wang Hai finished speaking, he wanted to leave, but Commander Li was completely stunned and hurriedly stopped him, "HeyβWang Dugong, what does this mean? When did I neglect my duties?"
Wang Hai stopped, laughed and said, "Oh...... Commander Li still doesn't know, right? Wang followed the marks left by the spies all the way to this point, and it seemed that before a stick of incense, the person who tracked down went out of the city with the spies from Xichang. Both of them have left the city of Guangzhou, and you still don't know, isn't this a dereliction of duty? The Wuzong Conference is imminent, if someone sneaks into the city tonight and does something harmful to the imperial court, Commander Li, can you afford it?"
Commander Li didn't know whether it was true or not, but he was already shocked into a cold sweat, "Duke Wang, this matter is ...... Is this serious?"
Wang Hai raised his head and swore solemnly, "Do you think I am falsely accusing you?" or ...... Our spies in the West Factory are all waste?"
Commander Li hurriedly waved his hand, his face was extremely frightened, "No, no, no! Thank you, thank you Wang Dugong for raising your hand......
Obviously, the eight characters have not been skimmed, and Wang Hai has not shown any evidence, this Li Commander nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and apologized again and again, Bai Ma Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head when he saw this.
Wang Hai smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Wang Mou treats you as a friend, you don't have to take a 'small', in front of Your Majesty and Niangniang, we are all 'small'." What's more, you are also a wife at home who is about to give birth, and some negligence is understandable. When Wang's matter is over, he will come to visit. β
Commander Li thanked him again and again, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to open the city gate and let the two out of the city.
