On this day, before it was time to open the city gate in Shangdu, the gatekeepers followed the instructions from above and opened the city gate early.

Today, Song Guogong of Huaixi is going to enter the capital.

The Emperor Da Yue led a group of civil and military officials to greet him at the gate of the palace in person, what a great honor for the courtiers.

Jun Ruohan was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, standing with his hands behind his back, as if looking down at the world and all life.

"Your Majesty, Duke Song has arrived."

In fact, he has seen it from afar.

"Ah."

The emperor did not take any action.

It wasn't until Shen Zhou led a team of nearly a hundred people to walk in front of him, knelt down in unison, and shouted "Long live my emperor", the expression on his face finally loosened, but it was just a twitch of the corner of his mouth.

"Song Guogong, please get up." Jun Ruohan gave him a hand and lifted him up.

Shen Zhou was a well-known handsome man when he was young, but even now that he is old, he doesn't show signs of decay at all, his waist is as straight as a pine.A pair of slightly cloudy eyes shone brightly, just as he did when he was young.

"The Duke has worked hard all the way." Jun Ruohan said, but his eyes turned to the soldiers in battle armor who defeated him behind him.

Shen Zhou laughed loudly, his voice was like a bell: "Your Majesty welcomes you in person, it's not hard work. Besides, the two young girls have been bothering you in the palace for the past few months, thank you for your majesty's care."

"My lord, you are welcome. Miss Shen will be my queen in the future. Where do you start your thank you!" Jun Ruohan said.

These words made Shen Zhou even happier, and he couldn't help nodding: "Your Majesty said yes, what you said is yes, the minister is confused, hahaha..."

The arrival of Shen Zhou made Jun Ruohan, who was already struggling, fall into an even more difficult situation.

He received the letter from Zhuang Zhou, saying that King Yan has already started to station troops, and there is no delay in cleaning up King Yan's faction, but Shen Zhou led his troops to Shangdu, if he is not willing to make Shen Qiuyun the queen, this old man will definitely not let him sit on the throne comfortable.

From the suspicious points in the letter, as well as the words of General Gu mentioned by Gu Fang before his departure.He wrote to Zhuang Zhou.

If his guess is correct, the so-called turmoil in southern Xinjiang was caused by Jun Tingzhao himself.

Those rebels were not remnants of the previous dynasty, but more than half of his own lost troops.

Corpses were strewn all over the west city, and there were more corpses of soldiers than civilians. They were cleaned up in a blink of an eye, and it was felt that the number of rebels had increased a lot.

After that, there was a head-to-head confrontation. Under Jun Tingzhao's tip-off, his own men suffered heavy casualties. Those soldiers who died in the battle must have changed their clothes and became rebels in the west city!

At this time, Jiang Ling knew the truth but did nothing, probably because of Liu Taiwei's instructions.

The mission of this trip has now become clear. In any case, the chaos in southern Xinjiang cannot be calmed by Zhang Jiansi.

They just need to find evidence that King Yan transferred his forces to the rebels to create turmoil.

In this way, he can learn from the famous teacher and clear this block in the way.

After Zhuang Zhou received the letter, he knocked on the door of the next room, where Gu Fangzheng and Jiang Ling were playing some unknown game.

At least in Zhuang Zhou's eyes.

Jiang Ling was sitting at the table, Gu Fang was holding a few palm-sized pieces of paper, each with different characters written on them, he took a step back and changed one, and he was still muttering: "Can you see it?"

"Chang?" Jiang Ling narrowed his eyes, not sure.

Gu Fang turned his head and glanced: "Where is this Chang, it's Xuan."

"Uh... Excuse me." Zhuang Zhou was outside the door with his head stuck inside.

The two people in the room looked towards the door together.

In view of Jiang Ling's presence, Zhuang Zhou couldn't say it clearly, so he just winked at Gu Fang and said in a low voice, "Come to my room tonight, and I'll show you something."

Gu Fang raised his eyebrows, savoring Zhuang Zhou's expression carefully, three points cautious and seven points wretched, with a little meanness in his excitement.

Such a vivid expression is so familiar.

After Zhuang Zhou left, he suddenly realized that it was the same when the son of the household servant asked him to look at the erotic pictures.

It was the first time in his life that he dabbled in this "knowledge", which was quite exciting.

After dinner in the evening, Gu Fang couldn't wait to take Zhuang Zhou, who was still eating steamed buns, back to his room.

"Don't eat it, take it out and let my brother taste it for you." Speaking of which, how many years has it been since he watched this stuff?He didn't remember anyway.

"What?" Zhuang Zhou bit the steamed bun, his face full of doubts.

"Tsk, it's now, you pretend to be me." Gu Fang was annoyed by his pretentiousness, and said again, "Didn't you say you have something to show me tonight?"

"Oh, what are you talking about!" Zhuang Zhou unpacked the steamed buns in two bites, patted the crumbs on his hands, and picked out a small note from his waist, which was still folded squarely.

Gu Fang was quite shocked when he saw that he took out a thing the size of a copper coin and came out. He must have drawn it himself!

This kid, I can't see it!

The two surrounded each other head to head, afraid of being seen by others, they unfolded the letter like a treasure.

It is said to be a letter, but it is actually just a note the size of a palm.

It may be to save space, the fonts are all small script, handsome and elegant, very Jun Ruohan's style.

When he saw the densely packed words on it, the light on Gu Fang's face instantly dimmed.

"What's wrong?" Zhuang Zhou also noticed the change in his expression.

"You... mysteriously called me to come over at night to read the letter!" Gu Fang asked, his words full of disappointment.

"Yes!" Now Zhuang Zhou was confused and asked, "Otherwise, what do you think I called you to come and see?"

"No, nothing..." Gu Fang coughed twice to hide his guilty conscience.

I have been thinking too much for a long time, and I can't blame him for this. I can only blame Zhuang Zhou for using the wrong expression when he was talking about business.

Gu Fang cleared up his mood, put on a serious face, and began to read the letter word by word.

After reading it, the two couldn't calm down for a long time.

No wonder the two of them couldn't think of Jun Tingzhao's conspiracy, no one would think in this direction, turn their own people into rebels, and even ask the court for support, the purpose is to slowly eat away at Jun Ruohan's strength. Well, the capital is already short of troops, and it may be bad if there is a loss at this time.

It's just that Yan Wang didn't expect Liu Taiwei to be dazzled by hatred, and even let Zhang Jiansi take this job.

If he had known earlier, he would have communicated with Taiwei Liu in advance!

"We need to find evidence that King Yan created turmoil," Zhuang Zhou said.

"Yeah." Gu Fang nodded, "Jiang Ling knew about King Yan's conspiracy a long time ago, but he planned to ignore it. I'm afraid that Director Zhang Jian's trip to southern Xinjiang is going to be just a formality."

"It's too difficult, relying only on the words of the two of us. And we can't let people know that we have discovered the secret of King Yan, otherwise it will definitely lead to death."

The corner of Gu Fang's mouth twitched, he was already in danger of killing himself, and he was not afraid of itchiness when there were too many lice, so he liked to do whatever he wanted.

"When is the next battle scheduled?"

"Five days later." Zhuang Zhou asked, "What do you want to do?"

"There is no way to get in touch with the so-called rebels in Xicheng, how can we find evidence to prove that they are the former troops of King Yan?" Gu Fang said.

"you want to go?"

"Otherwise, what am I doing here? Do you feel the thrill of being hunted down?"

"Don't talk about whether King Yan will agree, Vice President Jiang will not agree. If you have any troubles, his brother will be gone." Zhuang Zhou wanted to persuade him to give up this idea. After all, Gu Fang had an accident, except for Jiang Ling. I have to take responsibility myself.

"Do you think the emperor is really that cruel? Besides, if you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't catch a tiger cub. Can we find evidence if we sit under King Yan's eyelids and watch every day?"

"I'm with you." Zhuang Zhou thought for a while.

"Yeah." Gu Fang was silent, and said again, "There seems to be something wrong with Jiang Ling's eyes."

"Ah? What's the problem." Zhuang Zhou remembered the strange "game" between the two when they went to the next door today

"It seems that since the night when he met the assassin, he began to see things less clearly, and the situation has become more serious in the past two days." Gu Fang said, "I suspect that when you went to the next door today, if you didn't make a sound, he I don't even know who it is."

"It's so serious..." Zhuang Zhou was shocked, "Then, did you ask the doctor to take a look?"

Gu Fang shook his head, he also proposed to invite a doctor to come for a consultation but was rejected by Jiang Ling.

He said that if someone who cared knew that there was something wrong with his eyes, those killers who wanted his life would probably become more unscrupulous.

"Jiang Ling said that it was probably sprayed by the assassin when he was escaping. When the thing enters the seven orifices, it will fully degrade its function. It's just that the time will be slower." Gu Fang said.

Call this kind of poison poisonous, and it doesn’t want human life, let’s say it is not poisonous, any function degeneration in the seven orifices will greatly affect normal life.

He felt very guilty, if it wasn't for Jiang Ling trying to protect him at that time, he wouldn't have become like this.

This reply to Jun Ruohan was written by Gu Fang, and the first half was under the supervision of Zhuang Zhou. Gu Fang was very careful, and even asked him whether the wording was appropriate before writing a sentence.

Later, Zhuang Zhou was annoyed by the question, so he just sat down on the bedside to watch the moon and refused to talk to him anymore.

As soon as Zhuang Zhou left, Gu Fang also started to do whatever he wanted. After finishing the business, he briefly talked about Jiangling's eyes. In the end, he couldn't change the heart of an old lady, so he asked sourly: Duke Song has entered the capital, please the emperor as soon as possible After the seal, to stabilize the situation.

"Hey..." After writing this sentence, he unconsciously raised his head halfway and sighed.

Zhuang Zhou looked back at him: "What's wrong, you made yourself cry?"

"Well, I was moved by my literary talent." Gu Fang followed his words.

"It's the first time I saw someone writing a secret report so emotional..." Zhuang Zhou shook his head, thinking that he must be a fool!

Gu Fang folded the letter and folded it into a cube the size of a copper coin, and handed it to Zhuang Zhou: "Speaking of which, how do you keep in touch, and you are not afraid of being intercepted."

Zhuang Zhou didn't speak, but just lit a stick of incense, the scent was quite special.

After a while, a black thing rushed in with flapping wings.

Gu Fang took a closer look and couldn't help bursting out: "Fuck!"

Others use people or pigeons to send messages, but they prefer to use eagles, admiration.

"Let's be majestic!" Zhuang Zhou was a little proud, as if this domineering boss Ying was his pet.

Gu Fang nodded, still thinking that these two people were a bit strange: "Can't you follow the trend and use carrier pigeons?"

What are you doing so fancy!

"The emperor said that he was afraid that the pigeons would meet you and be cooked by you."

Gu Fang: "..."

It seems that the younger brother knows him very well!
