Chapter 686: Heart-to-heart

When it was lively in the capital because of the "indecent scandal", the Yamen of the Longwu Army in the north of the palace was exceptionally quiet.

Zhuo Shen unhurriedly wiped the crumbs of the Hu cakes on the table with a towel, he did not let go of even the tiniest slag, and wiped the table as clean as a mirror.

And in this process, Pu Yangxuan stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the empty school field outside, without saying a word.

He seemed to be expressionless, but in fact, he was thinking back to what Zhuo Shen had said to him before.

Zhuo Shen said a lot, what he has done for the Cai family over the years, or what he knows the Cai family has done.

Among them, although he has real power to control the Longwu Army, although Empress Cai's eldest sister married his younger brother, the Cai family is not completely at ease, and has installed and bought many people in the Longwu Army.

Therefore, even if he has the heart to join him, he must be more vigilant against the eyeliner in the Long Wu Army.

These people will make their errands much more difficult, and they need to beware of Cai's desperate efforts to steal credit, and at the same time expose that Zhuo Shen has "defected".

There was no one on the school grounds, but Pu Yangxuan could sense that someone was watching the room.

Those people's hidden skills are a bit clumsy, so they will be easily discovered by him.

After wiping the table, Zhuo Shen threw the towel into the basin.

There was a soft "pop" sound, and some splashes were made.

Pu Yangxuan turned around and looked at him.

Zhuo Shen's face was very calm, after not sleeping well all night, he ate a piece of Hu Cake and drank a few cups of hot tea, although the Hu Cake was already cold and not so crispy, but the fragrance and chewiness were still there, so he could get an indescribable feeling of warmth and comfort.

He looked at Pu Yangxuan with some admiration, no wonder since the resettlement of refugees, he has steadily subdued so many people's hearts in less than a year, and the eldest son of the emperor, who was once disgusted by everyone, is about to completely turn over.

Of course, there must have been a lot of hard work behind him that he didn't know.

If you want to stand in such a position today, for the king of Chu, what is needed is extraordinary talent and courage, and it is difficult for ordinary people to learn all this.

When Zhuo Shen met those eyes that were deep and like the night sky, he put away his thoughts and asked softly, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, what should I do next?" The subordinates are all under the orders of His Highness. ”

Pu Yangxuan said: "At present, Shen Qingmo's whereabouts are being traced, and at the same time, it is necessary to secretly investigate the abandoned houses and homeless people in the south of the city. ”

Zhuo Shen asked, "Do you mean that Shen Qingmo will return to the 'Longtan Tiger's Den' in the capital?" ”

"Yes." Puyang Xuan said: "There is a lair for training soldiers under the Luojiang River, and there are shops in the capital that are used to transmit and spy on news, what does it mean?" ”

"The capital is the most important thing for them, so they can't give up this place because of the current blow no matter what," Zhuo Shen said: "If you give up, it's like giving up on recovering the country." ”

"Yes, people have obsessions in their hearts." Pu Yangxuan said: "The capital is Shen Qingmo's obsession. ”

Zhuo Shen said: "The lower officials will send trustworthy people to secretly investigate in the south of the city, lay a net of heaven and earth, and wait for those remnants of the previous dynasty to throw themselves into the net." ”

"Okay." Pu Yangxuan patted him on the shoulder very solemnly, "Shen Qingmo is the number one important person in the remnants of the previous dynasty, we must arrest him as soon as possible, maybe we can uncover the mystery of the son of the deposed emperor of the previous dynasty." ”

"That princess of the former dynasty is a fake...... Zhuo Shen looked at Pu Yangxuan's eyes, "Could it be that this Shen Qingmo is ......?"

"We'll have to get it back."

Although Zhuo Shen said a lot, Pu Yangxuan didn't plan to tell him everything he knew.

"What about the remnants of the former dynasty who are hiding outside the capital and within Gyeonggi?"

Puyang Xuan said: "Let the local prefectures and counties check first, and then we will act." ”

"Yes." Zhuo Shen should go down.

Pu Yangxuan said: "We've been talking for a long time, let's stop here today." ”

No matter how long it takes, it is easy to make people outside suspicious.

"Yes." Zhuo Shen arched his hand, "The lower officials will arrange people to investigate the area south of the city as soon as possible, so the Cai family's side...... How to say it, please ask His Royal Highness the King of Chu to show it. ”

Pu Yangxuan said: "Tell the truth." ”

"Tell the truth?" Zhuo Shen frowned, "We can first talk about the news from the side of the Zhongshu Order." ”

"If you don't tell the truth, how can you make them trust?" Pu Yangxuan slowly came to the door and pushed the door open, "I also want to go to the south of the city in person, so let's do it first,"

Zhuo Shen followed to the door, and saw that someone saw them come out, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Qi Chu Wang, Princess Wanchun, it is rumored that the people of the Chu Palace......

"Oh?" Pu Yangxuan's face did not have a trace of waves, and he asked calmly: "You tell me in detail." ”

Came to the human: "Princess Wanchun is sick, and I invited the bamboo doctor in your house to go to see a doctor, but the little guy who followed took the opportunity to insult Princess Wanchun, and the news spread in the capital!" ”

Pu Yangxuan's face still had no expression, as if it was just an innocuous trivial matter.

Zhuo Shen said in a low voice: "I heard that Princess Wanchun had a conflict with Princess Chu by Changchun Lake before, and she wanted to stay in the capital for a long time, so she came up with such a poisonous plan, right?" ”

Pu Yangxuan asked, "What's going on now?" ”

"Princess Chu has already rushed to Princess Wanchun's residence, and Princess Wanchun's maid has spread this matter all over the streets and alleys of the capital, I'm afraid it will be difficult to end......" The person who came was anxious and helpless.

"Does the palace know?" Pu Yangxuan asked again.

The visitor was slightly stunned, "This...... The little ones don't know. ”

Zhuo Shen continued: "If such a big thing happens, the palace will definitely send someone to deal with it." ”

Pu Yangxuan glanced at him, "I know." ”

He quickened his pace and walked out of the Yamen of the Longwu Army, and Zhuo Shen followed, "Then the lower official will send His Royal Highness the King of Chu here." ”

He is not suitable to appear "dog-legged" in front of the king of Chu.

Pu Yangxuan nodded and rode away.

Zhuo Shen turned his head suddenly, and saw that the face of the person who passed the news was a little delicate, as if he didn't see it, and walked straight forward.

The man's eyes flickered, he looked at the King of Chu in the distance, and then at the silent Zhuo Shen, laughed lowly, and turned his head into the yamen.

Puyang Xuan rode into the Fanglin Gate, from here in the capital, the left hand side is the towering palace wall, there will be guards stationed every other way, and there are no pedestrians on the street.

The towering palace walls tend to block out the sunlight and make the road look cold, and the guards always make people feel quite stressed, so ordinary people don't pass through here.

Pu Yangxuan sat on horseback, looked at the cold street, and slowed down.

He was pondering.

I wondered if I should give someone a chance.
