The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

In the face of the sudden change of Wang Gao's army, there is no way here, but to see the tricks, and Li Chengliang, as the general of the Ming side in this battle, naturally needs him to worry about these things. Zhang Fan, even if he wants to help , but it can’t help. If the name is not correct, the words will not go well. Talking indiscriminately will only cause more troubles. Therefore, Zhang Fan does not intend to ask about Li Chengliang’s affairs, and let Li Chengliang handle it by himself. .

At the same time, it's not that Zhang Fan has nothing to do, although because the war is about to start early, Zhang Fan also wants to stay here for a while, so that he can report the news to Queen Mother Li after he returns. , but Zhang Fan didn't have nothing to do during his stay here. There was one thing in front of him, to investigate and find out about his own assassination.

Although it is said that there is such a thing to do, Zhang Fan has no idea how to do it. After all, although he has not got any objective clues about this matter, even the supervisor The analysis has already let Zhang Fan know that this matter is definitely not that simple, so Zhang Fan is not too optimistic about how to do it.

And even if he has already figured out how to do it, but the current situation restricts many methods, and only a few can be done. What Zhang Fan finally decided is that there is no other way now, and he can only wait until he After returning to the capital, we can slowly investigate without alarm.

However, Liang Chao obviously did not agree to do this. After all, it would be too much of a waste of time, and they would have to wait until they returned to the capital, which means they can't do anything now. If this is the case, Zhang Fan will continue to stay. During this period of time in Liaodong, there would still be dangers. Even if there were dangers, Liang Chao would do his best to protect Zhang Fan, but this kind of thing had better be avoided earlier.

But all of a sudden, there was no other way, and now he could only think about it this way, and seeing that Liang Chao disagreed, Zhang Fan couldn't help asking him, is there a better way, Zhang Fan didn't think Liang Chao could say it What a better way, but who knows, Liang Chao really said that he had a better idea, which made Zhang Fan a little surprised.

"My lord, in fact, I think this matter is easy for a humble person," Liang Chao said, "It's not that it's easy to find out this person, but it's not difficult for us to start investigating now, and we won't startle the snake.

"If my lord sends an order to go back now and let people investigate, it is true that it is very likely that the person will be alarmed, and I am afraid they will not be found. It will also be a hidden danger in the future, but if it is not for our people to investigate, my lord will If the news of going back does not go through our hands, but let other people check it, wouldn’t it be possible to hide it from that person?”

"Let other people investigate," Zhang Fan thought after hearing Liang Chao's words. He didn't think Liang Chao was talking nonsense. After trying to understand what Liang Chao meant, "You mean, Dongchang,"

"That's right," Liang Chao nodded, and said solemnly, "That's the meaning of being humble. Let Dongchang help us investigate."

Regarding the possibility proposed by Liang Chao, Zhang Fan began to think about it. Perhaps when Liang Chao thought about it, he didn't think about too many things, but just raised a possibility, but when it came to Zhang Fan, he had to think about it. To consider more things, consider the possibility and safety of handing over this matter to Dongchang.

As far as Dongchang is concerned, Feng Bao, who is in charge of Dongchang, has a good relationship with Zhang Fan, especially Feng Bao today, after that great change, has become completely different from before, although it is not a plan. The master who dedicated his life to the country and the court, but at the very least, he will no longer be arrogant and do whatever he wants like in the past.

The most important thing is that after that incident, the relationship between Feng Bao and Zhang Fan is quite good. In this way, obviously, there should be no problem in handing over this matter to Dongchang for investigation.

Of course, after the East Factory, there may be some people who have problems, but this is not within the scope of Zhang Fan's consideration. Besides, the composition of the East Factory is quite different from that of Jinyiwei, although the scale of the East Factory is larger than that of Jinyiwei. It's a lot older now, and it's easier to get some outsiders in among them. However, Dongchang has an advantage. Once there is someone suspicious, they won't ask so many questions, and they will arrest them first.

Doing this sometimes will indeed wrong many innocent people, but at this time, it is also very useful. Besides, the news must be passed directly to Feng Bao, and there are very few people who handle it. , the possibility of this news leaking out is very small, and Zhang Fan is quite at ease when Feng Bao handles affairs.

Furthermore, Dongchang is quite good at this kind of thing. Jin Yiwei, as the emperor's personal guard, is their job to maintain the imperial power, and they are best at intelligence matters, but in this respect, Dongchang The factory did not lose at all, and the scope of Dongchang's investigation was not only limited to the imperial court, but even the people in the rivers and lakes and Jinyiwei who had never set foot before, they also got involved.

Moreover, there is another more important factor. The reason why Dongchang was established in the first place was to curb the spread of Jinyiwei's power. Dongchang has jurisdiction over Jinyiwei. If this matter is left to Dongchang , once something is wrong is found out, compared to Jin Yiwei himself, it is more convenient for Dongchang to come to pick people up.

Of course, there are disadvantages. For example, Dongchang’s torture is much heavier than Jinyiwei’s. Jinyiwei’s punishment that makes people feel horrible is just child’s play for Dongchang. , Zhang Fan was worried that after handing it over to Dongchang to do it, once they caught someone suspicious, how could they control 21, and they would just do it directly, that would be bad.

But this matter is not difficult, as long as Zhang Fan points out this point in the news to Feng Bao, Feng Bao will not ignore Zhang Fan's request.

Thinking about it this way, Liang Chao indeed proposed a very feasible method, and the most important thing is that after Zhang Fan passed the news to Feng Bao, this method would only take two or three days at most. You can start the investigation. The most important thing is that at this time, you can start the investigation very quickly. For Zhang Fan, this is the most attractive place.

Liang Chao on the side saw that Zhang Fan hadn't said a word since he knew about his proposal. He knew that Zhang Fan was considering the pros and cons of doing this. He also thought about it and thought there should be no problem, so he interrupted and said : "My lord, please do this for me, my lord, as long as I can investigate and arrest the traitor who leaked the news as soon as possible, only then can my lord be safe, and my lord can feel at ease here,"

Hearing what Liang Chao said again, Zhang Fan made up his mind after some consideration: "Okay, this matter will be handled in this way, and I will hand it over to Dongchang, but there is still one problem. It’s going to be passed on to Feng Bao directly, but I don’t know what problems will arise during the transmission of the news, so how should we ensure it on the way from here to the capital?”

"This..." Liang Chao was a little speechless when he heard the question raised by Zhang Fan. Although he did come up with a good way to ask Dongchang to help investigate, it is indeed good, but No one can guarantee whether the news passed on now may have leaked out.

This whole plan, everything is good, just how to do it at the beginning to ensure nothing goes wrong, this is the problem, if this problem is not handled well, then there is no need to say more about all this.

"Originally this was a difficult problem," Zhang Fan said suddenly, "but now, Wang Gao's army has changed, and it is obvious that a war is about to start. This way, I have a solution."

"Your Excellency, there is a solution," Liang Chao asked hastily.

"That's right," Zhang Fan nodded and explained, "The most important thing about this matter is how not to leak the news before it reaches Feng Bao's hands. It’s enough to be someone I trust, but you can’t. After all, you came to Liaodong with me. Everyone knows about it. If you show up in the capital and I haven’t come back, I’m afraid that person will also become suspicious , and Wang Meng is the same, not to mention that Wang Meng is not here now, and it will be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to come back. Since this matter has been decided, it cannot be delayed, and he is not needed.

"But if Wang Degui is allowed to go back, it won't happen. Thanks to Wang Gao, it doesn't matter if he spreads the news of the assassination in the army. After all, the war is about to start, and Wang Degui will be free. Let him Pass the news to Feng Bao for me, that's all right, "

Yes, it is indeed a very good proposal to ask Wang Degui to spread the news. Although Wang Degui joined Jinyiwei within a short time, Zhang Fan himself spoke up after all, so many people in the capital know him , but this time, although Wang Degui came to Liaodong with Zhang Fan, it was not on the surface after all. In this way, even if Wang Degui went back, when asked by people he knew, it can be said that Zhang Fan asked him to do it. Things have been done, there is no need to stay there, so I came back.

Although this reason is a bit far-fetched, but if you think about it, you won't let that person pay too much attention. What's more, if you think about it, that person will pass the news to Wang Gao at this time, because he feels that his identity can be kept absolutely secret. Even if you do this kind of thing, you will be suspicious on weekdays, but it should not be so serious.

"My lord's method is good," Liang Chao agreed with Zhang Fan's method. Even in his heart, he felt that Wang Degui should stay and protect Zhang Fan. At least Wang Degui was better than himself, but the current situation can be imagined. Not so much, the most important thing now is to get the capital to investigate who is the informant.

"Then let's do this," Zhang Fan nodded, "Go and call me Wang Degui."
