The days when I was working in the West Factory

Chapter 45 Retreat
"Father, Jing Zhong doesn't understand, there is obviously a secret letter on him, why do you..."

After the servant took Zhao Yu away, Zhao Jingzhong couldn't help asking.

"idiot!"

Wei Zhongxian didn't raise his eyelids, but said something coldly.

Zhao Jingzhong didn't dare to say more.

After a while, staring at the ashes in the brazier, Wei Zhongxian said slowly: "A month ago, I was a young man from a small household, it's not easy..."

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhongxian raised his head, looked at Cao Zhengchun and Zhao Jingzhong with a sneer, and said, "Do you think there is no need to be so cautious when dealing with such a small person?"

The two dared not answer, but the expressions on their faces said everything.

Seeing that the two of them were not enlightened, Wei Zhongxian was not angry, but said lightly: "Our family 26 years ago was just a bastard wandering around the capital..."

"If he handed all the secret letters to Ben Chitose today, our family will definitely not let him out of this Chitose mansion!"

"If he clenches his teeth and doesn't hand in a single confidential letter, our family will not let him leave alive!"

Wei Zhongxian said this, looked in the direction where Zhao Yu left and said softly: "He is a smart man, so he naturally knows that this secret letter will not do anything to our family. At most, it can only make Jingzhong your head fall!"

"But the whole world knows that you, Supervisor of Rituals, Bingbi, is our family's adopted son. If you die, our family will definitely remove his head!"

"so……"

Speaking of this, Wei Zhongxian turned to look at Zhao Jingzhong and Cao Zhengchun and said, "The secret letter he left behind was not for threatening, not even for self-protection."

After hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Cao Zhengchun's eyes lit up suddenly, but Zhao Jingzhong didn't seem to understand the meaning of this adoptive father.

"Is he trying to tell Chitose that he will never be your enemy?"

Cao Zhengchun took Wei Zhongxian's words and said tentatively.

Wei Zhongxian nodded.

After handing over all the secret letters, Zhao Yu, the nominal governor of Beisi, was no longer a threat in the eyes of everyone.

If you don't hand it in... that is to tell Wei Zhongxian blatantly that he, Zhao Yu, is going to fight Jiu Qiansui to the end.

Therefore, only by leaving this secret letter that cannot shake the foundation of Nine Thousand Years at all, can it be shown that Zhao Yu doesn't want to get involved in this matter at all!
And Wei Zhongxian directly opened the middle door to send Zhao Yu away. In the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Yu, the governor of Beisi, became a member of the eunuch party! !
Therefore, this banquet, which seems to be giving money to officials for dinner, is actually murderous every step of the way!
……

Zhao Yu was sent outside the door by an accompanying eunuch.

When passing by the screen wall, the eunuch who accompanied him stepped forward quickly, and screamed at the gate guard: "According to the order of Qiantui, open the middle gate and send Zhao Zhenfu envoy!"

Open the middle door? !
The door guard who had previously dismissed Zhao Yu, now stared at the expressionless young man with wide eyes.

As a door guard in the Qiantose Mansion, he has seen how many imperial court Huang Zixungui came to ask for an interview!
Not to mention a small supervisor, Qianhu... Oh, no, it's Beisi's governor.

Even An Jianqing or the chief assistant of the cabinet don't have such a big face, right? !
"Eunuch Liu, you said... Lord Qiantui let the middle door open?"

The gate guard asked with some uncertainty.

The eunuch who sent Zhao Yu here glared, and said in a strange way: "What? Is the doorkeeper's ears bad, or do you think our family is falsely preaching a thousand-year-old decree?"

"Don't dare!!"

The door guard quickly waved his hand, and then ordered the subordinate guards to open the middle door, and rows of guards stood on both sides with sabers.

"Master Zhenfu, please!"

Eunuch Liu piled up a smiling face, and approached Zhao Yu and said.

Zhao Yu glanced at the open middle door of the Thousand Years Mansion.Then step over the threshold.

Zhao Yu, who stepped over and watched, did not leave immediately, but came to the guard on duty, stared at the guy who was dripping with sweat, sneered, and then walked down the eight and a half bluestone steps!
"Master Zhenfu, please slow down..."

Just as Zhao Yu was about to turn around and leave, the accompanying eunuch who sent him out quickly stepped forward.

"Eunuch, is there anything else?"

Zhao Yu looked at the eunuch in front of him, and seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Master Qiantui has an order. If Master Zhenfu has something to do in the future, you can send a message to Dongchang and your slaves. The slaves will definitely help you!"

The accompanying eunuch said, and sent a palm-sized token to Zhao Yu.

"That's it, Zhao Yu is here to thank Eunuch first!"

Zhao Yu took the token and clasped his fists at the eunuch in front of him.

The eunuch in charge waved his hand, then looked around, and then cautiously approached Zhao Yu and said: "My master already knows what Hui Xianya said, and he asked this slave to bring you a sentence, if your lord likes it , you can just go there in the future, no one will dare to ask you for money again..."

Zhao Yu frowned when he heard this, and fixed his eyes on the eunuch in front of him.

Back then when Huixian Yaxu was arguing with the old bustard, the old lady said that Huixian Yaxu was the property of the thirteen princes.

So... the master the eunuch is talking about must be the thirteenth prince!

At this moment, Zhao Yu felt that in this capital, it was more difficult than climbing to the sky to hide certain things.

My every move, even such trivial things as visiting a brothel, is all under the surveillance of others!

"Dare to ask the father-in-law's name?!"

Zhao Yu stared at the accompanying eunuch in front of him, and asked tentatively.

"My lord, Liu Xi, is the companion of the Thirteenth Prince..."

Liu Xi smiled slightly and said in a low voice.

"what?!!"

Zhao Yu, on the other hand, was taken aback by this eunuch's self-introduction!
Seeing Zhao Yu's expression, Liu Xi smiled in satisfaction, then turned and returned to Qiansui Mansion.

In his opinion, Zhao Yu must have been shocked by his status as the prince's companion.

But he didn't know that what surprised Zhao Yu wasn't the identity of the prince's companion at all, but his name itself!
……

Leaving the range of Qiantose Mansion, Zhao Yu walked on the street restlessly.

Originally, he thought that with the gold wealth in the system backpack and the tiger skin of the flying fish suit on his body, he could live comfortably in this world.

But he didn't want to, but his eyes were fixed on him.

One by one, the names he was familiar with all appeared in front of him one after another.

After thinking for a long time, when he wandered outside the alley of his mansion, Zhao Yu didn't even think about how to face all this next.

brush……

At this moment, a black figure rushed in front of him with a whoosh.

Zhao Yu looked up, only to see a man in black with a stern expression standing in the alley in front of him with a narrow knife on his waist!

"who?!"

Zhao Yu immediately took a step back, pressing his right hand on the handle of the Xiuchun knife at his waist.

The man in black on the opposite side slowly raised his head, the cold eyes under the sword eyebrows made people tremble.

"The No. [-] secret agent in the mainland... Huo Yidao?!"

Without waiting for the person opposite to open his mouth, Zhao Yu revealed the origin of that person in one go!
