great mandate

Today's Supervisor of Rites and Dongchang, although they are actually the domain of Shen Wuji alone, but on the surface, they must be clearly separated.

Zhan Qingshui is the supervisor of ceremonies, so naturally he is no longer involved in the East Factory, and this is one of the reasons why He Fangzhou refused him to go to the East Factory: to avoid suspicion.

Therefore, Zhan Qingshui neither knew that Cao Guozhong was still alive, nor did he know about the Yangyi Department, nor did he know that Jun Tianci went to Cao Guozhong to try to contact Master Tianzhu to study tricks together.

Today he was only forced to accompany the emperor to the Wazi Street temple fair, and had no choice but to sneak into the brothel to find the absurd emperor, and overheard the secret conversation next door.

After listening, he didn't immediately associate this matter with Jun Tianci, but he still took precautions: several people in the room said they were "nobles", and the words involved guarding against Shen Wuji, and even mentioned the emperor. ... Come to think of it, this "noble man" has a lot of background, and he is definitely not a junior in the folk.

These people are really courageous, they dare to play tricks in the capital!

This matter has to be told to brother Fang quickly, and Dongchang should be dealt with as soon as possible.

No, when I leave, those people next door also leave, isn't it a fish into the sea?

Zhan Qingshui thought about it, glanced at the foolish emperor beside him, and sighed silently.

Alas, no matter what, the emperor's safety is always the top priority.

Zhan Qingshui pulled the emperor away from the wall, and whispered in his ear: "The next door is a group of heretics, two mages from Tianzhu, and two more, probably dignitaries in Beijing, their purpose of this trip must be bad. This place is not suitable to stay for a long time. The servants are bold, so today they have to spoil His Majesty's interest, first escort His Majesty back to the palace safely, and then report the matter to Dongchang quickly, and ask them to come and get him, so as not to disturb the stability of the capital."

When the emperor heard this, he became anxious immediately.

Last time when it came to the cult in Meizhen, although he once insisted on focusing on the overall situation, he was not cold-blooded and heartless. At the beginning, he scolded the officials involved and asked Shen Wuji to record them one by one. Just to be decent on the tabletop, off the table, that's another story.

Later Luo Jinyu insisted on bringing the matter to the table, although Shen Wuji and Jun Tianci helped smooth things over, but in the final analysis, the emperor voluntarily turned a blind eye to this matter.Nothing less than that, the emperor knew in his heart that Luo Jinyu's actions were right, so since he had already done so, he did not hold any grudges.

Now, the emperor heard Zhan Qingshui say that someone wants to bring a cult to the capital!He immediately thought of Shen Wuji and the dense white bones he had fished out from the bottom of the Meizhen River that he had described, and Shen Wuji's exaggerated deliberately exaggerated exaggerations to frighten him. He could not help but take a breath, and said to Zhan Qingshui in a low voice: Go back to the palace again, they have already run away, and you can't even catch a hair! You go and catch them now."

Zhan Qingshui said helplessly: "Although this servant is skilled in martial arts, I don't know the strength of the other party. If I rashly act alone, I may startle the snake. It doesn't matter, if the dragon's body is involved, I will not be able to absolve myself of this crime."

"Oh, there are hidden guards, let's go together!" The emperor actively offered advice.

Zhan Qingshui smiled wryly: "Borrow 1 guts from my servant, but I don't even dare. It's better to send you back to the palace first, so don't waste your time."

"You are wasting time!" The emperor said angrily, "Do you know how horrific, heinous, and appalling the actions of the cult are? You have never seen it with your own eyes, so naturally you can't understand how worried I am right now!"

Zhan Qingshui: "..." You don't seem to have seen it with your own eyes, but you just heard it from Shen Wuji and Luo Jinyu, right?

"For such things, it is better to kill by mistake than to let go. Letting one go is tantamount to letting a tiger go back to the mountain, which means putting a hundred people in danger." The emperor said righteously, "Don't say too much, listen to me, ask someone who follows secretly to deliver a letter to Dongchang immediately. If you are not sure about taking down those people in one fell swoop, you don't need to startle them, but you must monitor them first, and don't lose their whereabouts. .”

Zhan Qingshui could be pissed off by him, and asked, "What about you?"

"They don't know who I am, and what are they afraid of? Even if they knew, would they still dare to attack me? They just want to make money, not to usurp the throne." The emperor said confidently.

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Zhan Qingshui tried hard to persuade him, "Your words are wrong. The servant listened to what they said, and I'm afraid there is a big move behind it, not an ordinary little fight for money."

"Oh, don't waste your time here," the emperor urged, "Just do what I say!"

"His Majesty……"

The emperor couldn't bear it anymore, and kicked Chao Zhan Qingshui's ass: "Stop talking nonsense! Do it!"

Zhan Qingshui: "..."

He doesn't want to be the head of Bingbi, the supervisor of etiquette, he wants to go back to Dongchang and continue to be a small and comfortable spy!

I can still see Brother Fang every day!

Although Zhan Qingshui is always said to be the little Shen Wuji, he also loves to imitate Shen Wuji, but in fact, his temperament is very different from Shen Wuji's.

For example, Zhan Qingshui is not very able to make up his mind on many things.

Therefore, he was stalked by the emperor in the palace, so he agreed to help the emperor out of the palace, but now he was tossed about by the emperor again, and he had no choice but to obey, and called a plainclothes expert to go to Dongchang immediately to report.

Instead, the emperor became more and more calm.

He was sitting in the house, holding a wine glass, sipping his eyebrows carefully, his eyes far away, and thought to himself: This is indeed an opportunity.

This is an opportunity for him to stand out.

On weekdays, although no one dared to say it, the emperor could always feel that most of the people in the court looked down on him.

At first, he looked down upon himself as a boy from the backcountry, who got the pie that fell from the sky.

Later, he felt that he was a puppet at the mercy of Shen Wuji.

Even that Jun Tianci, ah, dared not come to court in the first place!

As soon as I said it, it was the franchise that the first emperor had at that time... The late emperor has been dead for so long, you have a charter with him, you should go to him!It is me who is in charge now!

What made him even more aggrieved was that he didn't dare to swear these words, so he could only keep smiling.

Because of this, he could bear Luo Jinyu scolding himself.

After all, Luo Jinyu seems to be scolding herself, but in fact she is rare, maybe even the only loyal minister who sincerely regards herself as her immediate boss!

Luo Jinyu not only scolded himself, he scolded others even worse.

Then Jun Tianci was scolded by him to go to court!

snort!

The emperor felt that besides himself and the empress, Luo Jinyu was the only one on his boat.

Both gratified and sad, after much deliberation, and inspired for no reason.

You can't just rely on Luo Jinyu, a frail scholar, you have to rise up yourself!

Since I ran into this matter today, maybe it was an opportunity deliberately arranged by God.

The emperor thought to himself, Zhan Qingshui said that there was something complicated behind this matter, and that "big shots" might be involved... The "big shots" in the capital must be those old foxes I see every day!

Hehe, on the surface, my foundation is still shallow, and I dare not conflict with you, but secretly I dare not?

I will personally settle this matter and destroy your prestige.

At the same time, ask Shen Wuji to take a look, don't treat me like a fool who can't do anything without you all day long!

Even if he knew that Shen Wuji was one of his own, it would still be uncomfortable to be despised!

The emperor made up his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became. He couldn't help squinting his eyes, curling one corner of his mouth, shaking his shoulders, and laughed "huh heh heh heh heh goose goose".

Zhan Qingshui: "..."

He was about to believe the nonsense that Shen Wuji wanted to usurp the throne.

Facing such an emperor, let alone Shen Wuji, Zhan Qingshui felt that he was more qualified to be an emperor!

After the emperor laughed, he suppressed his smile, looked at Zhan Qingshui seriously, and said, "Suddenly I have a plan in mind."

Zhan Qingshui: "..." Please don't live.

The emperor said: "We should take the initiative to attack."

Zhan Qingshui risked his life to remonstrate: "This slave feels that we should sit on the sidelines and wait for rabbits."

"No," the emperor said coldly, "that's what the weak do."

Zhan Qingshui: "..."

The emperor asked: "Don't you want to hear what clever plan I have first?"

If you don't want to hear it, shut up, I just want to knock you out and carry you back to the palace.

Zhan Qingshui said with a flattering smile, "Your maidservant is all ears."

The emperor pulled him closer, pressed his ear, and said in a low voice: "You definitely don't know... Men, when you come to this kind of place to talk about things, you definitely won't leave after talking about things. After talking about the business, they must call a few A girl goes in to eat and drink. As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't catch a tiger's cub. The ready-made girls are here... Let's change into the clothes of these two girls and meet them. Before they are wary, we will make side-talking attacks , find out their mastermind and lair behind the scenes..."

Zhan Qingshui: "..."

He persuaded with difficulty, "I feel that this is unnecessary. Your Majesty is naturally worried about the people, but as long as Dongchang catches them and interrogates them..."

"Oh, why don't you understand?!" The emperor interrupted him and said, "One thing, the interrogation is a waste of time. If you take off a cup of tea, one more commoner may die. Two things, what if they would rather die than submit?" ? Have you never seen someone who committed suicide by taking poison after being caught? Three..."

The emperor hesitated, stared at him sideways, and bewitched, "You don't want He Fangzhou to look at you with admiration? What matter, you are behind Shen Wuji, no wonder he can marry Luo Jinyu, you... oh, tsk tsk... look Look at Shen Wuji, you always run ahead of everything, how majestic, look at you, alas, no one knows you! No wonder He Fangzhou ignores you. To be honest, I feel that He Fangzhou might like Shen Wuji .Hey, if I were him, I would definitely choose Shen Wuji, so why not choose you? Well, think about it for yourself."

Zhan Qingshui: "..."

He Fangzhou and Ming Lu entered the Chunhua Pavilion, and the journey went smoothly.

One can tell at a glance that Ming Lu has been here a lot, the girls at the door all recognize him, and greet him warmly to go in, but they don't bother too much, they just send them to the lobby, pointing the way, saying that girl Piao Piao is on the second floor As for the hospitality, let them go up by themselves.Ming Lu felt a little embarrassed for no reason, and smiled at He Fangzhou.

He Fangzhou remained calm, pretending not to think about anything.

The two went up to the second floor in this faintly weird atmosphere, passing by the door of a wing room, the door was suddenly opened, and a girl in colorful clothes came out from inside, bumping into He Fangzhou.

Fortunately, both of them were agile, and each took a step back.

He Fangzhou was fine, he just stepped on Ming Lu's foot, Ming Lu supported his waist in time, and said with concern, "Are you all right? Be careful."

He Fangzhou shook his head.

But the girl who opened the door knocked another girl in colorful clothes who was following up behind her, staggered, almost fell, and said "Oops" loudly in panic.

This voice... was extremely pretentious, and He Fangzhou listened too much, making his skin crawl.

"Sorry, sorry..."

Comparing the voice of the girl who bumped into someone, it seemed much more natural, but... there was a strange sense of familiarity.

He Fangzhou took a closer look and frowned slightly.

And the girl had already looked over at this moment, and was startled for a moment, her "cherry mouth" smeared with rouge was slightly opened, and she froze in place.

After a while, He Fangzhou hesitated and whispered: "Qing..."

Before the word "water" was spoken, another girl squeezed in and asked, "What's the matter—ah."

He Fangzhou: "..."
