"The wedding date is set. It will be on the eighth of next month. There is still half a month left."
In the embassy of the Kingdom of Song in Jin Capital, Mai Deman met Jia Wuqun and told him about the wedding.
As a representative of a country, no matter how incapable he was, he wouldn't be a fool. Now that things had come to this point, based on the various arrangements he had made and the situation Jia Wuqun was paying close attention to, he had a rough idea of Jia Wuqun's goal.
Jia Wuqun smiled and wrote something on Yuan Cong's back. Yuan Cong was surprised and looked back at him. Jia Wuqun said, "I see. Lord Mai, you came at the right time. I was about to say goodbye to you. Please take care of yourself, Lord Mai. See you in Song Capital another day. "
Mai Deman was surprised. "Are you leaving now?"
Jia Wuqun said, "I have something important to do. I will leave after lunch."
Mai Deman said hurriedly, "Is it because I am not a good host?"
Jia Wuqun said, "No! Lord Mai, when you return to Song Capital, you can come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see me. "
Hearing this, Mai Deman smiled. "Good, good, good. I will visit you when I return to Song Capital."
Jia Wuqun didn't want to talk with him and sent him away with a few words.
After Jia Wuqun left, Yuan Cong was confused and asked Jia Wuqun, "Are you leaving now?"
Jia Wuqun wrote on Yuan Cong's back, "Shao Pingbo will come back soon. We should leave too. This man is vicious and we may be in danger if we stay."
Yuan Cong said, "It is not difficult to find out the truth. Aren't you afraid that there will be a change of heart after you find out the truth?"
So what if Jia Wuqun finds out the truth? The general situation has been set. Those people in the court will not give up on the reason behind it. They will only push the boat with the current. Otherwise, those who blindly insist on this matter will have to bear the responsibility. Shao Pingbo has to marry her. There is no possibility of changing his mind. This kind of arrangement can't be hidden from people like Shao Pingbo. When he realizes it, he will find out the truth soon. I want him to find out the truth!
Yuan Cong asked, "What do you mean?"
Jia Wuqun and Shao Pingbo had found out that it was someone from outside of Jin State who was behind this. Regardless of whether they had high hopes or not, they had to report this to Tai-shu Xiong. If it involved a foreign force that might be involved in this matter, Tai-shu Xiong would definitely be shocked. He had to confirm this with Noble Consort Lan and her daughter. Once they found the evidence, it would be hard for the mother and daughter not to confess even if they didn't want to, and the mother and daughter would definitely suffer the wrath of Tai Shu Xiong. After this, I'll let them know that it was Shao Pingbo who exposed this matter because he didn't want to marry Taishu Huan 'er.
Yuan Cong seemed to understand something. "You want them to hate Shao Pingbo?"
Jia Wuqun was Tai-shu Huan 'er! So what if Imperial Concubine Lan hated him? After that, it was Tai-shu Huan 'er who married Shao Pingbo and lived with him. Before I took action against him, I had more or less understood the character of this lass. From what I heard in the court that day, I could tell that she wasn't a coward. It wasn't impossible for her to take revenge on Shao Pingbo. Even if nothing happened, Shao Pingbo wouldn't have a good life after marrying her. The person who I asked about coughing blood was Shao Pingbo!
Yuan Cong was taken aback. "Are you trying to anger Shao Pingbo to death?"
I don't know if Jia Wuqun will be angered to death, but there's no harm in angering him. If he can't, I'll think of a way to teach Taishu Huan 'er how to get rid of his anger. However, this is all in the future. The real killer move against Shao Pingbo is in the Qi Kingdom. You and I might as well take a trip there.
Yuan Cong asked, "Are we going to the Qi Kingdom?"
Jia Wuqun's sister was in the Qi Kingdom. His sister had asked the Ghost Doctor's disciple to detoxify her brother-in-law. This was interesting. We had to find a way to do something. Shao didn't want to marry Tai-shu Huan 'er, and he was forced to do so. If Tai-shu Xiong thought that Shao was resentful, it wouldn't be difficult for him to defect to the Qi Kingdom. The Emperor was very suspicious. Shao was a ruthless person. If Tai-shu Xiong didn't kill him, he would put him under house arrest. He would never give him the chance to defect. Shao, who had completely lost contact with the outside world, was useless. He was like a piece of meat on the chopping board. It would be easy to kill him.
Yuan Cong sighed and shook his head. "You're ruthless enough!"
Jia Wuqun, you have to ask the person behind you if you're ruthless enough. If we don't solve this problem thoroughly, Shao Pingbo won't be easy to deal with. Both you and I will be in danger. I was tired of writing. I asked Wei Duo to pack up and leave. It would be dangerous if we stayed here any longer.
After I finished writing, I let go.
Yuan Cong turned around and shouted, "Wei Duo!"
After lunch, they left.
Shao Pingbo, who was resting in the military camp, found out the truth faster than Jia Wuqun had expected.
In just a few days, Shao Sansheng, who had entered the tent, looked around, took out a secret letter from his sleeve, and said to Shao Pingbo, who was lying on his side with his eyes closed, in a low voice, "Eldest Young Master, the innkeeper has sent a letter. We've found some clues about the matter!"
Shao Pingbo opened his eyes and became energetic. He quickly sat up and took the letter. After reading it, he frowned and mumbled, "It's not from the imperial court? Jia Wuzi? Jia Wuqun? The Hidden Minister from Song Kingdom? "
Shao Sansheng said in a low voice, "It shouldn't be wrong. The letter said that according to the surveillance of the Misty Pavilion, it can be ruled out that it was a plot by the officials in the court. Moreover, the Misty Pavilion has found the Temple Attendant of the Fire God Temple. He was indeed bought over by the Song Kingdom's embassy."
Shao Pingbo stood up and paced back and forth. He said curiously, "I've heard of this Hidden Minister, but he's always been low-key. I've never met him, nor do we have any grudges. Why would he harm me? This is not normal! "
Shao Sansheng was puzzled. "It's a little strange."
Shao Pingbo looked down at the letter again and mumbled, "He's in the Song Kingdom's embassy. Song Kingdom's embassy? Could it be the Song Kingdom's intention? Could it be that the news was leaked and they know that I planned this battle, so they're targeting me? "
He folded the secret letter and tapped it on his palm. "No wonder he's so good at the imperial court. It's not strange if he's the Hidden Minister behind Prime Minister Song, Zi Pingxiu."
He looked back at Shao Sansheng and sneered. "No wonder Zi Pingxiu could sit in the Mu Kingdom's imperial power for so many years. He could still stand after Wugong Ling took the throne. No wonder this mute is called the Hidden Minister. He's really good at hiding! It seems that I should go back to the capital to meet this Hidden Minister. I'd like to see what else he wants to do! Send a message to the innkeeper and ask him to keep an eye on him. To prevent any tricks, help me prepare to meet him! "
"Okay!" Shao Sansheng nodded.
"It's time to say goodbye to Lord Gao. Let's go!" Shao Pingbo, who seemed to have recovered his fighting spirit, waved his hand and strode away.
Gao Pin was relieved to know that he was going back to the capital to face everything calmly. He wanted to hold a banquet to see him off, but Shao Pingbo said he was not feeling well. Gao Pin had to give up, but he still saw him off personally. He watched the three flying mounts take Shao Pingbo into the sky …
The long journey in the sky was full of wind and clouds.
Shao Pingbo's return was greeted by good weather. Before he returned, the rainy days that had covered the capital of the Jin Kingdom had disappeared.
However, what awaited him was not good news. After returning home, he cleaned up and was about to go to the palace to see Tai-shu Xiong. Shao Sansheng sent another secret letter and whispered, "A letter from the innkeeper."
Shao Pingbo, who had just changed into clean clothes, immediately opened the letter and slammed it on the table. He said coldly, "He ran away? He actually ran away before I sent a message to follow him. What a fast reaction speed! He walked ahead of me step by step. It seems that he really planned this for a long time! "
Shao Sansheng said, "Young Master, he is not here. What should we do?"
Shao Pingbo grabbed the paper on the table into a ball and said, "Can he run away? I don't believe that the innkeeper can't find him. Send a message to the innkeeper. Find him and arrest him immediately! Hum, he has planned this for a long time. I want to see what else he wants to do. Find him and pry open his mouth immediately! "
"This …" Shao Sansheng was frightened, "Young Master, is it appropriate for him to arrest him? I'm afraid he doesn't dare to do it! "
Shao Pingbo said, "Tell the innkeeper, did Jia Wuzi come all the way here just to force me to marry the Seventh Princess? This is not a simple matter. I don't know what he wants to do to me. If something happens to me, he may be involved. Doesn't he want to find out what is going on? This matter should not be delayed. Once the other party really has a backup plan, once it explodes, it will be troublesome. Tell the innkeeper that we must be fast! "
"There is nothing difficult to do. It may be difficult if the other party reveals his whereabouts, but it will be easier if his whereabouts are mysterious! Ask the innkeeper to directly send his trusted men to find them directly using the identity of the Misty Pavilion. With the identity of the Misty Pavilion, I don't think they will dare to resist. Take them away quietly without alarming anyone. Then secretly control them and pry open their mouths. In order to prevent the information from leaking, we can … kill them directly! "
Shao Sansheng nodded, "Okay!"
"Wait!" Shao Pingbo stopped him. When he was about to say something, he suddenly raised his hand and grabbed a secret letter in his hand, "From the time of the reply, the innkeeper is not in the Saint Land. He should not be far from us."
He turned around and told Shao Sansheng, "Gather all the people in the Black Water Station that I can use and come to see me!"
Shao Sansheng asked suspiciously, "You don't want to see His Majesty?"
Shao Pingbo tore open the crumpled paper and stared at some of the people who took the lead against him. With a murderous look, he said coldly, "The situation has changed. I don't want to see them for the time being. Let His Majesty watch from the side. The traitors in the court. If I don't teach them a lesson, they will think that I am a pushover. This time, for the sake of the war, His Majesty has given me a certain power of life and death. It's a pity that I don't use it. Let me help His Majesty vent his anger first! Gather people. I want to investigate the case. I want to find the foreign spies. Go quickly! "
"Yes!" Shao Sansheng took the order and left.
Soon, a group of men in black appeared in the courtyard of the mansion. Shao Pingbo, with a cloak fluttering behind him, had white hair at his temples. He was expressionless. With a sword tied to his waist and a sword in his hand, he strode out of the hall and passed through the group of men in black.
The group of black-clothed men immediately followed behind Shao Pingbo.
After going out of the gate, Shao Pingbo did not use a carriage. He pulled a white horse and mounted it. He kicked the horse's belly with his heels. The horse neighed and rushed directly to the street, with his cloak fluttering behind him.
