Chapter 42: Worries in the Palace

Li Yan was very surprised, why did he suddenly turn to Jiangnan, what could happen to Jiangnan? He felt that his train of thought was a little unable to keep up.

"Jiangnan?" After a moment's hesitation, Li Yan repeated suspiciously: "My lord, this... Why is this a hundred workshops, what are you going to do in Jiangnan?"

Liu Han shook his head: "I don't know, this is just speculation, our main focus is still on Yangzhou, alas, as soon as this Gu Shuo died, I originally wanted to use Yangzhou internal guards, but now it seems that it will not work, hey, by the way, are you Gu Shuo recently found a clue, and the Hundred Workshops killed him in order to extinguish his mouth." ”

"Makes sense, but ,... , then why do you want to kill Duan Sanye?" Li Yan's tone said, he was very skeptical of the correctness of this idea.

Liu Han didn't answer, staring at the closed door, Li Yan's newly rented house is not big, one in and one out, the outside is the living room and the stove room, the inside is the bedroom, the furniture is also very simple, the living room is just a table, there is a shrine in the middle, and there is nothing else.

Li Yan didn't have Liu Han, the water on the stove was boiling, he brought the teapot over, looked at it, pushed the door out, poured the water, came in and put the tea again, poured the boiling water into it, and didn't cover the lid, and after a while, there was a smell of tea in the room.

Liu Han's mood was very complicated, he thought about it for a long time, and shook his head: " I am not sure, there are several possibilities for them to do this, one is that our exploration direction is right, so, they did it, but, the problem is that I have had several contacts with the shopkeeper of Baigongfang, this is a very shrewd and cautious person, it stands to reason that such a mistake should not be made, this is a suspicious point; Well, of course, there is a second one, that is, what you said, the other party's purpose is to let us stay in Yangzhou, and their real nest is not here at all; this possibility is the same as the previous one, half to half, as for whether it is to cover up their actions in JiangnanI don't think that's a possibility.

Judging from the information in the palace, except for the violation of the merchants, the Baigongfang has never interfered in the affairs of the rivers and lakes or the court at other times, I can't think of anything they have to do in Jiangnan, however, there is also a possibility that they are going to hold another auction in Jiangnan, but this is difficult to explain, for this reason, they want to target me?"

Li Yan lifted the teapot to pour tea, sighed, and shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't understand, so many ways." ”

"The things on the rivers and lakes are not much different from the things in the court, but the form of expression is different, Brother Li, I now understand a little bit, why the court asked us to check the Hundred Workshops, this is not only to be vigilant against the Hundred Workshops, but also to investigate me. ”

"Inspector Adult?" Li Yan was very surprised, Liu Han nodded, and sighed softly: "I may have taken a wrong step, I shouldn't ,... , No, it has nothing to do with joining the forbidden army, damn, let's talk about it, Xiao Yu is still to blame, alas, and blame me, I'm too anxious to wade into this muddy water. ”

Li Yan didn't understand at first, and then understood, Liu Han regretted it and shouldn't have entered the internal guard, but what does this have to do with this mission in the palace?

"Baigongfang, even if it is a bit mysterious, but after all, it is a commercial workshop, even if there is any suspicion in the palace, just let Yangzhou internal guards check it, why do you want me to come and give me so much power?" Liu Han said slowly: "This question, I have been thinking about it, in the past two days, I have figured it out, Brother Li, if we can check the Baigongfang six or seven percent, brother, I am afraid that I will be promoted when I go back." ”

Li Yan immediately understood, and his spirit couldn't help but perk, but seeing Liu Han's expression, he couldn't help but smile and said: "My lord, this is a good thing, besides, if you don't like to be promoted, these hundred workshops have been in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and they haven't been found out in the palace, so let's check as much as we can." ”

Liu Han turned his head to look at him and said with a smile: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of loyalty to the King, since we have come to this point, we still try our best." ”

"That's nature, everything under my subordinates listens to adults. Li Yan said.

Liu Han nodded, fell silent, and Li Yan asked tentatively, "My lord, what should we do next?"

And so on. Liu Han took a sip of the teacup: "The tea is good, the tea in Jiangnan is good." ”

"Wait?" Li Yan was puzzled, Liu Han nodded, and put the teacup down: "The palace should already know about this, and it is estimated that there will be an order soon, and when the time comes, you will know." ”

Li Yan nodded, a little suspicious in his heart, how did Liu Han contact the palace?

Liu Han drank the tea dry, got up and said: "Before that, what should we do, Huxi, well, you go two more times, take a look at the remaining islands, and then take a look, Huxi's manor, try to find merchants related to the hundred workshops, alas, damn, these hundred workshops are well hidden enough, brother, let's do our best this time, hey, do your best." ”

"Then, what about Hudong?" Li Yan asked, Liu Han glanced at him: "You do yours, Hudong, don't be busy for the time being, this old nest and old nest, it won't be, I heard that we will check, just move out, a little sooner and a little later, nothing." ”

"That's what my lord said. Li Yan showed a hint of a smile, Liu Han got up and said, "During this time, you should be careful and don't take risks." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand. Li Yan also got up to send Liu Han out, and when he arrived at the door, Liu Han waved his hand, Li Yan stopped, after Liu Han went out, he looked around, turned around and walked towards the end of the alley, and when he arrived at the river, he paused slightly, and his figure reached the opposite bank in a flash, and soon disappeared into the alley.

Li Yan didn't come out, he looked at the teapot, poured a glass of water, spread out his left hand, there was a white pill in his palm, he stared at the pill for a while, and then sighed silently and carefully put the pill away.

The door opened silently, Li Yan was startled, quickly took two steps back, looked up, his expression suddenly relaxed, and bowed down and said, "Senior brother!"

The tea has been changed three times, Wheat changed the tea lightly, peeked at the book on the table, since receiving this letter in the evening, Gonggong Lin sat like this, as the godson who was most familiar with him, he naturally knew that this was something he was not sure about.

At this time, don't disturb him, Wheat gently withdrew, just went out, and saw Bai Gonggong swaying into the yard, seeing him asked Lin Gonggong with a smile, Wheat pointed to the house, Bai Gonggong's expression was slightly astringent, and asked in a low voice Is there anything difficult?

Father-in-law Bai didn't ask anymore, knowing that he couldn't ask again, the little eunuchs here were all about to become fine, their mouths were incredibly strict, and they couldn't ask anything more important.

Pushing the door in, he saw Gonggong Lin who was still white-eyebrowed, he habitually showed a smile and walked to sit down opposite Gonggong Lin.

"What's the matter? Look at your appearance, what's wrong with that again? Isn't it Gu Shuo, didn't you say okay, let Liu Han take over, and then investigate, who is it, so bold, even the internal guards dare to assassinate so blatantly. ”

Gonggong Lin shook his head slightly, handed him the book in front of him, Gonggong Bai saw it quickly, frowned before he finished reading it, put down the book and looked up at Gonggong Lin suspiciously.

"Look at the above meaning, he was hunted down and killed, doesn't he have a top-grade grandmaster cultivation? Who is so powerful that he can still hunt him down?"

"That's the crux of the matter. Lin Gong said slowly in his open mouth: "This hundred workshops, it turned out that it was just to check it out and see what he was, but now it seems that this hundred workshops.... , hehe, even the great grandmaster is working for him, the master of this hundred workshops, amazing, amazing. ”

"So, do you want to send someone to support him?" Bai Gonggong thought about it, and cautiously proposed, knowing that he knew too little about this huge organization to make a better proposal now.

Don't forget, there is a great grandmaster outside the palace, alas, Gonggong Bai, you must remember that at any time in the palace, you must keep a great master, in other aspects, even if it is a temporary loss, it is not a big deal, the palace is the foundation of the world. ”

"Yes, yes," Bai Gonggong accepted with a smile, and Lin Gonggong sighed: "The affairs outside the fortress are also very troublesome, and the imperial court is now arguing about whether to continue to attack or take advantage of the victory to collect the troops, continue to march into the army, what should we do with the grain and grass? ”

Bai Gonggong was stunned, he said with a sad face: "Yes, those Xianbei barbarians, they are really a group of unfamiliar dogs, I heard that the King of Qin was on the fold, and asked to stop the attack, so withdraw the troops, and talk about it next year." ”

"The King of Qin has the concerns of Tubo, when he decided to send troops, the King of Qin was not very supportive, his concern was Tubo," Gonggong Lin got up and took out two documents from the pile of documents behind him and put them in front of Gonggong Bai: "This was arrived yesterday, sent from Liangzhou, and there is an abnormal movement in Tubo, but I don't know if it is Koubian or just adjusting the deployment." ”

Bai Gonggong hurriedly picked it up, Liangzhou reported that according to the information they had detected, Tubo had transferred 20,000 people outside the Huangsha Pass, and it was said that the clouded leopard cavalry would also be transferred, and the Xueyun cavalry was the personal guard of the Tubo Great Khan, and it was the strongest fighting force in Tubo, if this army appeared outside the Huangsha Pass, it would mean that the Tubo invasion was imminent.

Gonggong Lin stood in front of the window, looking out of the window in early autumn, a few chrysanthemums that had just been transplanted in the yard had just bloomed and budded, swaying slightly in the autumn wind.

Sighing deeply, it's been ten years, after ten years of recuperation, the desert is almost recovering its strength now, if the imperial court can't hold it down this time, the desert will be in chaos.

Just thinking about his thoughts, he hurriedly came in from outside the courtyard, Gonggong Lin frowned slightly, and the little yellow door came to Maizi and said a few words, and Maizi turned around and came in.

"Godfather, the emperor has issued an edict to let you bring the recent information summary, especially the information of Yongzhou Liangzhou and Bingzhou, to the Heart Cultivation Hall immediately. ”
