Red House Shoufu

Chapter 305 A Water-Soluble Gift

In the second ten days of the first lunar month, the capital experienced a very serious late spring cold.

Lin Shu was carried by Qian Qianli to the Huitong Hall and the Sifang Hall and was busy for several days. After returning every day, he buried himself in various classics and information sent by the Embroidery Guard. You can eat white steamed buns dipped in ink.

The mission sent by the imperial court to the tent of the Tatar Khan had already left the capital with Tutuo Chahan, who had returned north.

Qian Qianli and Tuo Tuo Chahan had been enemies for decades, but this time they had surprisingly the same opinion.The two of them played around with the envoys of Wala and Raksha, went to Tuotuo Chahan on the night of the Yuan Dynasty, and stayed in Nanchi Huaboat for the night, and they never appeared again the next day.

The remaining two deputy envoys of the Tartars were like gourds with their mouths sawn off.When the envoys of Wala and Raksha got the news, Tutuo Chahan had already arrived in Datongwei.

As for blaming the Great Chu court, saying that you Han people did not keep their promises and disrupted the peace talks between the four countries, this matter must be explained to the two countries.

Qian Qianli replied directly: I, Da Chu, canonized as a subject, what does it matter to you, Tatar?My dynasty is the kingdom of heaven, when will I start doing things and need to explain to you and other barbarians?

The cold winter has passed, and everything is revived in early spring. Hexi, which has been stalemate for several months, is about to start a formal war.

Perhaps in the near future, the new grass shoots in Hexi and Mobei will be stained red with blood.The imperial court and the rebels, the Great Chu and Oala, and even on the border of the Western Regions to the northwest, there will be blond Raksha ghosts who will be killed by the warriors of the Great Chu.

Lin Shu integrated all the information, feeling heavy in his heart.This year is full of opportunities as well as dangers and challenges.

He sighed, the brochure in his hand that analyzes the current situation in various countries will be regarded as one of the most important references by several bigwigs, and when he sends it on behalf of the Ministry of Rites tomorrow, it may add a lot to his resume. A bold stroke.

But at the same time, the soldiers of Nine Borders, Hexi, and the Western Regions do not know how many people will die in the strategy formulated according to this booklet.As soon as the generals are successful, their bones are exhausted, and they set up the capital by themselves, but they also become the people who step on the bones of the soldiers.

Sighs are sighs, what should be done still has to be done.At least if you do it yourself better and more accurately, the strategy related to the four countries can be more perfect.

Early the next morning, Lin Shu came to the cabinet lobby early to wait for the Chief Assistant Wei Qinghe.The old man is nearly seventy years old, but he is in good health.

After carefully reading Lin Shu's brochure, he tapped on the table with his fingers.After a long time, Wei Qinghe called the scribe and asked him to invite Zuo Lan, the commander of the Embroidered Clothes Guards.

"The lower official pays homage to the old man. I don't know if the old man is looking for the lower official. What is his order?"

Zuo Lan saluted Wei Qinghe respectfully, he could not afford to offend the other two generations of emperors.

"Sit down, I have something to ask you in this pavilion."

There are confidential matters to be discussed here, Lin Shu replaced the clerk to serve tea and water to the two.

Wei Qinghe opened his mouth and asked: "I asked you, which direction did the water dissolve out of the Great Wall? The Embroidery Guards arranged spies beside Shui Rong, and I think they have sent back the news. With the help of these spies, Ben The Pavilion wants to send a big gift to Shui Rong, so that he can live in peace for a while."

Lin Shu's ears twitched, and Zuo Lan's face showed a look of embarrassment.

The Embroidered Guards had indeed planted spies in Shui Rong's place, and they got it from the Zheng family in Xingyang. Otherwise, with Shui Rong's dexterity, it would be difficult to place spies.

"Mr. Ge, it's difficult to install this spy. If something goes wrong, we will completely lose the information about Shui Rong. The identity of this person is not allowed to tell anyone except His Majesty."

Wei Qinghe narrowed his eyes slightly: "Huh? Not even in this pavilion?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly turned cold, but after Zuo Lan shook his head again, Wei Qinghe gave up asking, and just asked, "In that case, I ask you, where is Shui Rong now? Mobei?"

"In the vicinity of Changbai Mountain in Liaodong, according to their marching route and direction, the destination should be Seoul. Before the official sent people to check the Shui family and the Zheng family who escaped from Xingyang, they should be hiding in Koryo."

After Zuo Lan said this, he thought for a while and added: "There are still some people who went to the Western Regions. The Shuirong faction sent several branches of their own family, and brought a lot of property to the west through Yumen Pass. The official has already asked his subordinate Erlang to follow them secretly. It is estimated that there will be news after a while."

Wei Qinghe nodded, he was quite satisfied with Zuo Lan, the Commander of the Embroidered Guards.Loyal enough, capable enough, the most important thing is that he is fairly fair in dealing with things, knows how to handle things well, and the relationship with civil servants is not as tense as the previous ones.

He picked up a pen and began to write on paper, put it in an envelope after a while, handed it to Zuo Lan and said, "I won't embarrass you, I will find a way to deliver this letter to the desk of the King of Korea, remember, don't let People realized that the letter was handed out by the old man."

Zuo Lan pulled out the letter in front of Wei Qinghe and read it, her eyes instantly became huge.He looked at Wei Qinghe in disbelief: "Mr. Ge, you..."

"It's spring, and as soon as the weather gets warmer, the west and north of Dachu will have to face powerful enemies. If this pavilion doesn't find something for the poisonous snake, Shui Rong, I won't feel at ease."

"But your news is baseless, who would believe it? How did you decide that Shui Rong would go to Korea, so you laid this pawn early?"

Lin Shu was really curious about what was in his heart, but Wei Qinghe and Zuo Lan seemed to be playing riddles, asking and answering, just like riddlers.

Wei Qinghe's words finally revealed the content of the letter: "According to the fact that this pavilion will arrange for people to create it as soon as possible, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not. The important thing is that Shui Rong did have two brothers who had the opportunity to be born at the same time. The Shui family secretly sent it to Lingnan."

Speaking of this, Wei Qinghe chuckled: "I thought Shui Rong went to the Tatar Khan Tent in Mobei, but it seems that he was still cautious all the time, and even shot a feint and went to Korea. Send the son of the Shui family born to a princess of Korea to Seoul."

"Could it be that the remaining one, whose mother's uncle's family is related to Tatar?" Lin Shu couldn't help asking.

Wei Qinghe nodded with a smile, and said with emotion: "Aside from other things, the Shui family is really outstanding. The father of Shui Rong had contact with the Koryo royal family during the Eastern Expedition. Side concubine. I didn’t expect to meet the niece of the old Khan King of Tatar a year later, so there was another Tatar side concubine in the Palace of Beijing County.”

Zuo Lan also remembered the records in the Xiuyiwei's documents, nodded and said, "This matter was a hot topic 20 years ago, but the records of the Xiuyiwei at that time said that the two concubines died of poisoning, and the murderer was a servant of the palace. The concubines, including the two children, are too late to be treated. The palace also sent an imperial doctor to rescue them, why did they suddenly appear in Lingnan?"

"The Shui family has been thinking about the position of supremacy since the founding of the country. How can the saint rest assured that his family has two princesses who belonged to the royal family? As soon as the two children were sent out of the capital, the Xiuyiwei had already followed. As for the records in the Weizhong , it’s just a cover-up.”

Wei Qinghe sighed suddenly: "In the past, when the palace changed, your predecessor died under the sword of the rebels. This pavilion knew the news because the sage told me about it when Shui Rong rebelled. You can ask His Majesty for confirmation on this matter." , His Majesty was also in the Dragon Head Palace that day. This letter from this pavilion will definitely make Shui Rong's life safe for a while, so arrange someone to send it out as soon as possible!"
