great mandate

Shen Wuji took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, thought for a while, and continued: "I just said that people die for money... All in all, the number of private salts sold today is far more than you think. But these can be hidden from the emperor, but they must not It is impossible to hide the truth from the inspecting salt envoy, and there are many interests in the official salt, so it is conceivable how rich the salt envoy can get."

He looked at Luo Jinyu's frown again, sighed, and said, "So our family said before that you can find an orphanage and an academy, but it's hard to find it all over the world. Salt patrol is the big head Fertility poor, but patrolling the fields, tea, and waterways are not profitable? There are no places in all walks of life that silverfish can't get in and gnaw."

"Then check one by one, and count one as the other. Even if I can't find all of them, I have a clear conscience in this life." Luo Jinyu said lightly, "And this matter should never be left to me alone. Every person with a conscience in the world, Everyone should stand upright, supervise and investigate strictly. Once this is the case, if we work together, we can lift the broken quilt that has been bitten by moths and expose the truth in the bright sunlight, so that the world will never have those hidden people again. Dirty thing."

"You idiot...every time we come to our house, we always say you are naive, and every time we make our family feel ashamed of being inferior to your naivety." Shen Wuji took his hand, shook it lightly, and still kept his heart full of desire to overflow. Chiai who came, got up and came to him, squatted down, and rested her head on his lap, very docile.

Luo Jinyu hesitated, and reached out to stroke his hair.

"The charity and disaster relief of orphanages and Xunyan are two places that are profitable. At the beginning, one belonged to the Yu Department, and the other was snatched by the Jun Department."

Shen Wuji was very comfortable being touched by Luo Jinyu's head. He took the initiative to rub his palm and said, "Now that the orphanage is under your control, you still have to dig deeper, and Yu Xi wants to avoid your edge. On the one hand, we have to find new ways to earn money, otherwise how can we support so many mouths.”

Luo Jinyu thought about it: "So, Yu Xi is eyeing the rich job of Xunyan? But now, the general trend is that they believe that you and I have formed a party with Dongchang Lijian, and they are teaming up to deal with us. Yu Xi especially hates us. How could I, at this juncture, so obviously snatch such a highly valued seat from the Jun Department?"

"That's the reason." Shen Wuji raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a light smile, "So the Yu family didn't actually do this. As you said, they hate you first, and they don't intend to break up with the Jun family."

"Can--"

"But someone wants them to dismantle the two factions." Shen Wuji said, "This method is very simple, as long as the new patrol envoy is a member of the Yu Department, then no matter how the Yu Department explains it, or how wise the Jun Department is, they can't help it. Whether they want to dismantle the gang, this gang has to be dismantled."

"But what does this have to do with the note brought back by Mr. and Murong?" Luo Jinyu asked.

"Actually, it has nothing to do with that Murong for the time being." Shen Wuji said with a smile, "He is probably a latecomer, and now he is a dark chess piece nailed beside Zhan Qingshui. After all, Zhan Qingshui is the Chief Secretary of Rites and the confidant of our family. , It won’t hurt to stare at him more. Hey, don’t stop, just give him a press, it’s comfortable.”

"..." Luo Jinyu continued to press his head.

Shen Wuji sighed comfortably, and continued: "That person knows, with our family's temperament, the more clearly he knows that Murong is different, the less he will directly drive him away or kill him, and he will simply use one trick to do his tricks. Tell Murong to become our family's undercover agent in the Yu Department without knowing it, and spread some false news to them. With this plan, our family will not care about Zhan Qingshui and Murong's affairs, and maybe we will take the initiative to match them up. "

"That note..."

"Hey, you're just staring at this note." Shen Wuji said, "The matter of Murong's identity written on the note doesn't matter at all. Whether there is this note or not, our family will know that Murong is not easy sooner or later. What matters is this piece of paper." strips of paper."

Hearing this, Luo Jinyu let go of him, took the burnt torn paper on the table, and looked at it over and over again.

Shen Wuji put his hands on his knees, looked up at the paper with him, and said: "The craftsmanship of this paper is trivial in detail, but you know, it's just a special paper for the palace. It’s also useless, it’s when supernatural things happen, and Qin Tianjian wants to pretend to be a ghost to communicate with the Heaven and Earth Mansion, so I use this paper. When making it, the eminent monk recited the scriptures, dripping the dragon’s blood, and avoiding evil. Demon, very precious."

He stretched out his hand to take the piece of paper, and said with a sneer, "The Yangyi Department also has them. They do some insidious things like taking living people to test medicine and dismembering them, and record those secret tricks. This piece of paper is probably used to prevent ghosts from haunting us." Yitou."

When Luo Jinyu heard him talk about the Yangyi Department, he immediately thought of that extremely strange person...

Shen Wuji also remembered that dying face, curled his lips and said: "If our guess is correct, Jun Tianci is asking our family to play his charades. In the past, it was a good thing for the Jun family to patrol the salt, that is to say, all inspectors On the face of the court, it is a metaphor for a relationship, but in fact it is a monarch. Then the Metropolitan Procuratorate will definitely recommend someone from the monarch's family this time, and the two of them will not be able to fight. Therefore, Jun Tianci wants us to Let me help him with this, and find a way to get someone from the Yu Department to grab this seat."

……

The next day, Shen Wuji directly told the emperor about it.

After all, this person's assistance is needed to recommend the salt patrol envoy.

After hearing Shen Wuji's words, the emperor was very confused: "I probably understand the rest, but I'm still confused about one thing. How did you guess where it was from this piece of paper?"

Shen Wuji disliked him, but he didn't show it on his face, and explained with a low eyebrow: "When this servant saw this piece of paper, he guessed that it was Lord Xiaojun. But he has always been at odds with this servant, so how could he tell this matter kindly? Even if you want to say, he can use it to coerce Jinyu to ride with him in a carriage as he did in the orphanage. He has always coveted Jinyu's beauty, and it doesn't matter whether Jinyu is married to a servant or the majesty personally presides over it..."

"Okay, I'll look for an opportunity to scold him later, don't bring any personal grudges, and talk about business first." The emperor urged.

Shen Wuji had no choice but to continue to talk about the business: "So I thought, he must have something in it. If you look carefully at the leftover note, there is hidden the name of an official in the court, Hu Wentong, and this person is on the new tour. He is among the candidates, and he is a disciple of Mr. Yuge."

The emperor asked: "Couldn't it be that he suggested that you help drive Hu Wentong away and not let him be elected?"

"Hu Wentong has no hope of being elected, so why should he do anything extra." Shen Wuji said, "Therefore, he can only be selected for Hu Wentong's election. This servant thinks about it, and then deduces that the previous ones correspond to each other."

"He is a Junxie himself, what are you doing to instigate Junxie and Yuxie to fight among themselves at this time?" the emperor said, "Could it be because of Luo Zishi? Fenghuo plays with the princes, and Bomei smiles?"

"..." Shen Wuji gritted his teeth immediately, and said, "Who knows what he is thinking, he looks gloomy, how can he think of something in the world."
