Mantou Dolin glanced at the Dharma Protector and said, "Of course I don't want to take this step unless I have to!" Now I have successfully persuaded Yan Wuwei, Taichangqing Huang Dezhong, Dali Temple Shaoqing Wei Wan, Ministry of Industry Langzhong Zhang Bonian, and Shaofu Secretary Yang Wansi, if I can persuade Zhongshu Shilang and Li Yuande, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, I will be able to let them jointly write the book! ”

The Dharma Protector raised his eyes to the Mantou Dolin again, "You just used charm to confuse them, not to convince them!" Princess, the poor monk always thinks that you are walking on a sword, and sooner or later something will happen! The poor monk didn't believe that you had so frequent contact with the important ministers of the Qianguo court, and the relevant yamen of the Qianguo State would not notice your actions! ”

Mantou Dolin was confident, "What if they knew?" I am an envoy of Shanshanguo, and I didn't break the law in Chang'an, I just asked those ministers to eat, drink, and chat, and I didn't do anything else, so the Imperial City Division can't arrest me because of this, right? ”

Fa Hu sighed, "Princess, don't underestimate the people of the world, there has never been a shortage of capable people in the Central Plains, once someone sees through that you have used secret techniques on those ministers, you will have enough reasons to arrest you!" ”

"Then wait until they find out!"

Mantou Dolin said to the Dharma Protector: "I need some manpower, strong outlaws, the kind who want money and don't want to die, as long as you have money, you dare to kill officials and rebel, you have been in Qianjing for so many years, I know you must have a way!" ”

The Dharma Protector kept twisting the Buddha beads in his hand, "Princess, you have fallen into the devil, you are killing yourself, once you set foot on this road of no return, no one can save you!" ”

Mantou Dolin had a hideous face: "That's also my own business, I just need you to say a word, can you help me find someone?" If you don't help me find it, I'll find it myself! ”

The Dharma Protector was silent for a long time, then took out a small porcelain vase from his bosom and handed it to Mantou Dolin, "You take it to the Ma Ji Jewelry Store in the third lane of Huai'an Fang in Dongshi City to find the owner, give this to him, and he will take you to meet the person you are looking for!" ”

Mantou Dolin took the porcelain vase and looked at it, stuffed it into his bosom, and got up to leave.

Royal Racecourse.

Two teams are playing polo, and Zhao Junsheng is also in one of the teams, and the two teams are from the Yulin Army and the Tiger Ben Army.

In addition to guarding the palace ban and practicing on weekdays, the royal guards also organized two teams to compete against each other in their free time.

After a game, Zhao Junsheng jumped off the horse and walked to the side of the racecourse to take a few sips of tea handed by the eunuch, Gao Xiu came over and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have selected more than a dozen people from the palace guards and also organized a polo team, I heard that some court ministers and generals have also selected some knights from the guards in their homes to form a polo team, do you want to pull these polo teams up to organize a big game?" ”

Zhao Junsheng smiled: "Okay, this is a good thing, I support it!" Discuss it for yourselves, choose a date, and let the teams of the Yulin Army and the Tiger Army also participate, and the team that wins in the end will be rewarded! ”

"Yes!"

At this time, the eunuch stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, Wang Tanzhi has something to do!" ”

Gao Xiu on the side clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the minister will retire first!" ”

"Go ahead!"

Wang Tan stepped forward and saluted: "Meet Your Majesty!" ”

Zhao Junsheng took a towel and walked around the racecourse track and said, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Secret pile to report: three days ago, the son of Li Yuande, the secretary of the Chinese book and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was kidnapped, but he did not report to the official, the news was blocked in the Li Mansion, the first day his son was kidnapped Li Yuande received a letter, he did not make any noise, this morning Li Yuande received a second letter, no one knows what is written on the letter, Li Yuande has no sign of raising money to ransom people, the minister suspects that Li Yuande has been coerced by something! The dark pile found that Li Yuande had frequent contact with Princess Mantoudolin, the envoy of Shanshanguo, but there was nothing forbidden between the two, and Li Shangshu seemed to like watching the princess dance! ”

Li Yuande had a son before, all of them were adults, Zhao Junsheng died in battle when he led the army south for the first time, this son was born to a concubine who married later, thirteen years old this year, and Li Yuande was born at the age of fifty-five.

Zhao Junsheng asked, "Did they say anything that attracted attention?" ”

"Why does that princess have frequent contact with Li Yuande? Climb to his power? She, a princess of Shanshan, doesn't need to be committed to Li Yuande, right? ”

"It's not that she wants to persuade Li Yuande to write to ask His Majesty to retract the idea of deposing the Shanshan royal family, and she is not just lobbying Li Yuande alone!"

Zhao Junsheng was stunned, "She also lobbied others?" ”

"Yes, Yan Wuwei, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, Huang Dezhong, Taichangqing, Wei Wan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Zhang Bonian of Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, and Yang Wansi, Secretary of the Shaofu, have all been lobbied by her!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled: "Interesting! Few people knew about my plan to depose the Shanshan royal family, so how did this news reach the ears of Mantou Torin, who was still at the end of the day? ”

Wang Tanzhi said: "Those who know about this matter are the important ministers trusted by His Majesty, they should not take the initiative to leak the news to Loulan Know, the ministers guess that they should have inadvertently leaked the news when they were talking to their families or heirs at home, if this is the case, someone must have spread the news, maybe someone is doing business in this area, and it is not uncommon to sell news!" ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and ordered: "Check where the news leaked from, the Great Qian's Imperial Court can't be like a window leaking everywhere!" If my will had not been promulgated, and the people of the world would have known the specific news, it would have been a joke! ”

"Yes!" Wang Tanzhi agreed, hesitated for a moment and asked, "······ Li Yuande?"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "Don't worry about it, wait and see what happens!" ”

"Do you want to inform the Imperial City Division of this news?"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it, the Imperial City Division had just been established, and the first case was to monitor the envoys of various countries, and the ministers such as Mantou Dolin and Li Yuande had frequent contact, and now Li Yuande's only son was kidnapped again, is there a connection between these two things? Maybe it's better to let the Imperial City Division check it out.

"Yes, inform the Imperial City Division of the news!"

"No!"

Wang Tanzhi then reported: "Your Majesty, there is another matter, in addition to the Shanshan envoy Princess Mantou Tuolin, the female envoy Moma has also been in frequent contact with the officials of the imperial court and the yamen of various ministries in Chang'an City during this time!" Unlike Mantoudolin, Mama or her people only had much contact with middle- and lower-level officials, especially the officials of the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Households, and the officials who would be the prisoners, and they also bought a lot of books, but they did not know the Chinese language! ”

Zhao Junsheng was stunned, "This is strange, why are they doing this?" Although this matter is a case of the Imperial City Division, it also involves court officials, and you should also pay close attention to the lawsuit and find out their intentions as soon as possible! ”

"No!"

Shine Place.

Those who live here are either high-ranking officials and dignitaries, or wealthy businessmen, and they all live in big mansions, and the mansion newly bought by the female envoy Moma is also here.

Mama stood under the elm tree in the courtyard and played the flute, which played melodiously and gracefully.

An accompanying female officer waited for the flute to stop before she came over and saluted: "King, the slave is back!" ”

Mama took the flute and stuck it in her waist and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The female officer took out a booklet from her sleeve and presented it with both hands: "It is done, the construction of palaces, temples, pavilions, attics, and houses is all here!" That Ministry of Labor Langzhong was really greedy, and he was willing to copy a copy only for twenty gold, and the slave gave it to him in order not to make a difference! ”

Mamma took the booklet and flipped through it, then turned and walked to the backyard.

After a while, Mamma led the female official to a room in the backyard, where there were two female samurai with swords and a middle-aged scribe who was powerless.

"Who are you? Why did you arrest me? The middle-aged scribe looked at Mamma tremblingly and asked.

Moma asked, "Do you want to die or do you want to live?" ”

When the middle-aged scribe heard that the language was wrong, his face was shocked, "You are from the Xiangxiong Kingdom?" ”

The Zhangxiong Kingdom is in the west of the women's country, close to Tianzhu, the former Zhangxiong Dynasty has a vast territory, strong troops, has a very ancient and long history and civilization, they have their own writing, and the women's country is greatly influenced by the Zhangxiong country.

The female officer pulled out the scimitar at her waist and put it on the neck of the middle-aged scribe, which frightened the middle-aged scribe's face and made him very afraid.

"You'd better answer the questions honestly!"

"Don't kill me, I still have a wife and children at home, I want to live! What the hell are you holding me here? ”

Mamma threw the pamphlet on the table, "Translate it into Zhang-zhung, and if you make a mistake, I'll cut off one of your ears!" ”

The middle-aged scribe picked up the pamphlet and opened it, looked at it, looked strange, and said, "I'm hungry!" ”

"I can give you food, as long as you translate it well, don't make mistakes, and have wine and meat for a meal, and you will be full of food and drink. This is only the first book, and I will send it to you next, and when it is done, I will not only let you go home, but also give you a box of gold as a reward! ”

The middle-aged scribe's eyes lit up: "Is this true?" ”

"Now you can only choose to trust me!"

"Okay, I'll translate it into Zhangzhung for you!"

After coming out of the room, Moma said to the female officer: "It has been so many days that we have only gotten books on construction, we must continue to work hard to get the books on medicine, smelting, forging, calendars, etc., as soon as possible, we don't have much time, we can't stay here all the time, we must hurry!" ”

"Yes, king!"

At this moment, a retinue of warriors walked in and saluted, and reported: "King, we are being targeted!" ”

Moma and the female officer were both shocked, "Do you know the identity of the other party?" ”

"It's not clear, there have been people watching outside for the past two days, and although they often change people, I still found out!"

The female official hurriedly asked, "Wang, could it be a spy from the Qianguo side?" ”

"Don't panic! In this way, I will lure the watchful people away before proceeding, and then you will go out on errands! ”

"This is too dangerous, king! Let's go by the slaves! ”

"No, you're already familiar with that side, and if we make a hasty substitution, he'll probably be scared back, and we'll have to get what we need from him!"
