Chapter 127 Assassin
Chapter 127 Assassin
For Meng Chen, there is only one word to describe the trial of soap, that is "Olly"!
But this word can only be thought of in the heart.

Meng Chen, who is now the lord, always pays attention to his words and deeds. Even so, many catchphrases of later generations have been passed down.

Of course, the culprit was Chen Yaojin, the captain of the guard.

Don't look at this naive guy who doesn't talk much on weekdays, but every time he speaks, he definitely shocks the audience.

"Zhijie, take two yuan and send it to my father-in-law!"

"okay!"

……

After more than an hour of communication and exchange, Meng Chen finally figured out the whole process of Ma Jun's trial production of soap.

Although the consumption is huge, compared with the benefits that are about to be obtained, it is completely a drop in the bucket.

"Deheng, Ben Hou said a long time ago that you don't need to care about expenditures when doing scientific research. The benefits of soap and scented soap are beyond your imagination."

After a pause, Meng Chen said again: "How many people is the big man? Every household uses it. You can do the math yourself. If it is exported to the countries of the Western Regions..."

Meng Chen didn't continue to say the following words, Ma Jun's face was already full of joy.

Craftsmen don't care about profit, they only care about whether their own things can be recognized by the world.

But in Chang'an, under Meng Chen's command, Ma Jun showed his talents to the fullest.

From military equipment to civilian furniture and agricultural tools, all the objects passed on from the artisan workshop have been put into use, which gives Ma Jun and the artisans a sense of accomplishment.

And this sense of accomplishment, no matter how much gold and silver money, cannot be exchanged for!

When he left the artisan workshop, Meng Chen took almost half of the trial-produced soap with him.Although it has not yet been finalized, commercial promotion must be carried out.

"My lord, there is murderous intent!"

While Meng Chen was thinking, Chen Yaojin whispered a reminder behind Meng Chen.

"Don't worry about it, move on, I want to see who is sacred!"

Until the Governor's Mansion, Meng Chen could always sense that someone was following him secretly.

But in broad daylight, the other party seems to be very afraid, otherwise they will not follow until the end.

"My lord, I'll go out and have a look."

After finishing speaking, Chen Yaojin turned around, but was stopped by Meng Chen: "Don't be reckless if you know the integrity, this matter is left to Mr. Wenhe."

Hearing the words, Chen Yaojin wanted to say something, but Meng Shan at the side pulled his armor, so he had to leave as promised.

As night fell, Meng Chen wrote and drew in the study alone.

Looking from the outside, it seems that he is dealing with government affairs, but if he looks from Meng Shan's perspective, Meng Chen is completely writing from a distance.

"If you want to laugh, you have to hold back, and you don't want your child to be caught by a wolf!" Meng Chen warned softly with his head down.

Meng Shan nodded, the purpose of Jia Xubu's plan is to attract assassins, if there is a mistake, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Time passed by every minute and every second, Meng Chen was already asleep on the table, and the patrol soldiers in the courtyard were yawning in twos and threes, completely in a relaxed state.

After a few minutes, three black shadows appeared on the wall. They observed carefully for a while, and then landed quietly, without making too much noise from the beginning to the end.

In the study, Meng Chen was sleeping soundly. The three black shadows approached swiftly and nimbly. The dagger that was shining coldly was still out of its sheath, as if everything was under control.

Suddenly, a murderous intent rushed towards them, and the three men in black stopped in amazement and looked around in horror.

"It's not bad, but it's wishful thinking to assassinate Benhou." Meng Chen's voice came, and the originally dark courtyard was instantly illuminated by lights.

Teams of heavily armed soldiers quickly occupied a favorable position and surrounded the three men in black.

A cold light flashed, and one of the three men in black was caught off guard, and slowly collapsed to the ground with his hands on his neck.

Shi A appeared in the courtyard dressed in black. When it comes to assassination, no one is more professional than him.

"Who are you waiting for? Do you know someone's name?" Shi A said coldly to each other, without any hint of pity
"Shi?"

"Now that you know it, you don't have to waste your time talking about the rest."

"Hmph, use people's money to eliminate disasters..." After finishing speaking, Yang, the remaining man in black, made an offensive gesture, and then drew his sword to kill himself.

Such a scene happened to be seen by Meng Chen who walked out of the study.

"The subordinates are incompetent, and they failed to keep alive." Shi A stepped forward to check, and then hurriedly pleaded guilty to Meng Chen.

"It's okay, these three people are dead Shier, think about it, this Marquis didn't offend others, why did he assassinate?"

There are many question marks in Meng Chen's heart, whether it is to capture Chang'an or conquer the Western Regions, even if he captures Hanzhong, he has never done anything to any big family.

"My lord, these three people are not local rangers, and there may be other hidden secrets." Shi A continued to reply.

"Continue to investigate. If you fail in one blow, there will be a second or third time. We must find the real culprit."

"promise!"

According to the system prompt, Meng Chen needs to guarantee not to be assassinated within [-] days, the safest way is to choose to stay at home.

But in Mengchen's view, if he doesn't find out the real culprit behind the scenes, even if he escapes the first day of junior high school, he won't be able to escape the fifteenth day!

In the early morning of the next day, just as Meng Chen finished his morning exercise, Jia Xu appeared in a hurry.

"My lord, after an overnight investigation, all the clues point to Jizhou."

"Yuan Shao? How come?" Meng Chen replied subconsciously.

It stands to reason that Yuan Shao's heart is high and arrogant, so he shouldn't make such a despicable choice.

But Jia Xu's intelligence will never be wrong. Could it be that someone did it on purpose?
"The assassin followed the Jizhou Zhen family caravan into Chang'an." Jia Xu added.

"The Zhen family?"

Meng Chen became even more depressed. The Zhen family was in Jizhou, so they must have joined Yuan Shao's sect. Could it be that Yuan Shao did it?
"Can you control the Zhen family caravan?"

"After overnight interrogation, these three people bribed the principal and followed them into Chang'an, and they are not from the Zhen family."

"Hehe, what a way to bring disaster to the east. It seems that some people want the governor to start a war with Yuan Shao."

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Liu Bowen's figure appeared in Meng Chen's vision.

"Master, what do you think of this matter?"

Before Liu Bowen was seated, Meng Chen asked questions, and at the same time signaled Meng Shan to prepare two extra breakfasts.

Liu Bowen and Jia Xu came so early, they must have not eaten.

As the lord, Meng Chen doesn't even have hungry soldiers, let alone his two important advisors?

"Ji believes that this matter is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface." After a pause, Liu Bowen continued: "Yuan Shao regards Cao Cao as his mortal enemy, and the current situation will never provoke the Lord, let alone Cao Cao."

Meng Chen nodded, he thought the same way, but this matter is definitely not in the hands of people, and the layout is probably far beyond this.

"But Liu Zhang from Yizhou?" Meng Chen lowered his head in thought for a while, and then asked again.

"No! Since the Battle of Hanzhong, Liu Zhang has strengthened the defense of entering Shu, and the countries in the Western Regions will not have such calculations."

Liu Bowen's analysis made sense, but he still didn't give an answer.

"According to the military adviser, only Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Sun Ce of Jiangdong are left?"

"Jiangdong Sun Ce has nothing to do with the lord, but Liu Biao..."

"Ok?"

Meng Chen frowned at Liu Bowen's words, as if, as if, probably he hadn't offended Liu Biao!
