The discussion in the South Study Room is over.

Everyone withdrew from the inside, leaving only a few senior ministers in the cabinet and a few close ministers of the emperor still inside. It seemed that Shen Lang had something else to say.

Gu Chunfang was transferred back to the capital, so naturally she was not among them.

Zhang Zhe walked with him, a little behind two steps, still so taciturn.

Gu Chunfang looked at his expression, walked away, and said: "The South Study Room suddenly proposed to let you sneak into the Tianjiao and pretend to be a native of Junshan. They didn't discuss it with you in advance, so don't mind it."

In fact, there is no way to negotiate in advance.

It is impossible for Gu Chunfang to know in advance what Xie Wei will say today, everything is just adapting to the circumstances.

Zhang Zheshi never thought that he would be so involved in these complicated things by accident. He has no ambitions in this life, but he just wants to set aside more time to accompany and take good care of his mother.

It was unexpected to be involved in the dispute.

After the rebellion between Xie Wei and Yan Lin in the last life, even the forces of the Heavenly Sect were strangled and wiped out from top to bottom, but until the leader of the teaching fell to the ground, the legendary "Dujun Mountain Man" did not die. Appear.

If there is such a person, it is still so important, can it escape the sky and enter the earth, and evaporate from the world?

So people in the world thought that Tianjiao did not have such a person at all, but that the rebellious officials and thieves deliberately fabricated such a fairy character to deceive the congregation and make them believe in Tianjiao even more.

Zhang Zhe had been involved in many cases related to Tianjiao because of his work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he was indeed ordered to investigate who this Dujun mountain man was, but he couldn't find any results every time, and finally let it go.

But he also had some doubts.

It's just that this kind of suspicion is groundless, and it's really unbelievable. He has never confided in others.

In this life, there seemed to be some clues.

However, Zhang Zhe thought, those seemed to have nothing to do with him.

He lowered his eyes, and said: "Your Excellency has been kind to Zhang Zhe in the past, and this recommendation is also a flattery. I don't mind it. It's just that Master Xie mentioned this idea, maybe there is a suitable candidate in his mind, so Your Excellency put in a piece of paper like this. feet, maybe it will make Master Xie worry..."

Gu Chunfang's eyes were already old, but they became more transparent.

He twitched his beard and said: "It is precisely because Master Xie suggested it that I want to recommend you."

Zhang Zhe immediately raised his eyes to look at Gu Chunfang.

Gu Chunfang frowned in a rare way, but seemed to feel that she was a little too dignified, so she loosened her brows again, smiled and sighed: "Maybe the old lady is getting old, but she is a little suspicious. I always feel that this Young Master Xie is very young. He looks like he is indifferent to the world, but he has a heavy heart. The city government is really deep, not as simple as it looks. The stupefied stupefied Qing, who doesn't understand anything. I hope I'm a bit paranoid..."

Zhang Zhe was speechless.

Gu Chunfang only stretched out her hand and patted him on the shoulder lightly, saying, "This time, I'm going to have to work hard for you. By the way, is your mother feeling better recently?"

Zhang Zhe said: "After moving to the capital, she got better and needs to be recuperated. It's just that she still can't sit still, she always has to do something at home."

This can't be persuaded.

Gu Chunfang couldn't help shaking her head: "You are a filial child, if those worthless people in my family can be half as good as you, this old man will be relieved!"

As the setting sun gradually set, the two left the palace.

The people who stayed in the South study also came out after half an hour.

When Xie Wei walked out of the palace gate, his face was still full of smiles.

But when they got into the carriage, those warm and gentle expressions just now slowly faded from their faces, turning into a silent condensation.

Lu Xian felt that he was in a bad mood. He had just returned from the Shuxiang Inn, but the two news he heard were still circling in his head until he passed the sealed-up Yongyi Hou Mansion and stepped into the gate of Xie Mansion.

Can the dry stocks that have entered the saltworks be resold by others?

Ren Weizhi went to the capital to solve lifelong affairs by the way, so he will go to the Qingyuan uncle's mansion to propose marriage in these two days?

Why are things so incomprehensible these days?

He frowned deeply, and ignored the other people in the mansion who greeted him. When he was about to step into the Qinqin hall, he remembered what happened here a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel a chill.

The foot that stepped out was immediately retracted.

Looking left and right, there were no knives, zithers, swords and books, so he called a servant to move a chair for himself, and simply sat on the porch outside the Qinqin hall, thinking about it.

Lu Xian was waiting for Xie Wei.

However, unexpectedly, when Xie Wei finally came back, when he looked up, he saw that his expression was not much better than his own, and his eyelids twitched immediately.

He said, "Has something happened in the court?"

In winter, the flowers and trees in the courtyard wither.

The withered lotus leaves in the lotus pond curled up on the surface of the water.

The sleeves of Xie Wei's green Taoist robe looked like fallen leaves.

What happened in the South Study Room was also turning in Xie Wei's mind, when Lu Xian asked, he said it expressionlessly.

Hearing that he offered time to the emperor, Lu Xian's scalp almost exploded!

"Borrowing a knife to kill people is a good plan!"

That day Xie Wei killed Gong Yicheng, such an important person who is well-known in Tianjiao, he also knew that if Tianjiao found out, what kind of **** storm would be set off. Just because of Xie Wei's dual identities in the Heavenly Church and the imperial court, if he is not careful, he will be hit by the enemy. If people know the secrets about him, he will be like the person walking in the gap between two ever-closed cliffs, and sooner or later he will be smashed to pieces !

Therefore, after the murder, it is necessary to immediately control the forces of the Beijing Zhongtian Sect.

Take the obedient ones for your own use, and ruthlessly cut off the disobedient ones.

However, there is too much movement, and there is no impenetrable wall in the world. It is all the forces within the sect fighting each other. If it spreads to Jinling, it will definitely attract the attention of the main altar.

Xie Wei has something in their hands.

His identity is the biggest handle.

So all this must be done without anyone noticing!

The Gongyi Cheng who was obviously killed by Xie Wei, but now he was killed by the Yin of the Shuntian Prefecture during the encirclement and suppression of Tianjiao, doesn't this immediately become "justified"?

And if you continue to use this method in the future, it is simply a trick of "killing someone with a borrowed knife"!

I also know that Xie Wei can't eradicate those forces that obey his orders.

So, with the help of the imperial court this time, all the forces in the Tianjiao that are more inclined to Jinling are eliminated, and the strength of Jinling is weakened, making it easier for Xie Wei to control the capital; From this point of view, eradicating the Heavenly Sect can be regarded as one of Xie Wei's outstanding achievements!

Kill three birds with one stone, nothing beats this.

Lu Xian couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding.

However, the expression on Xie Wei's face didn't change a bit, he just added the final result lightly—

During the discussion in the South Study Room, the person pretending to be from Dujun Mountain was decided not to be him.

But Zhang Zhe.

Lu Xian was stunned and couldn't believe what he heard: "But, but this... you didn't raise any objections, and just let the matter develop like this? Is the cover going to be a bad thing?"

Xie Wei closed his eyes slightly and said, "I think Gu Chunfang seems to be afraid of me."

Lu Xian said: "This old man has just been transferred back from other places. He used to be the supervisor of Henan Province. He has lived most of his life. He is definitely shrewd. It's just that if you can hide it from the eyes and ears of the world, you can hide it from such a person. It’s just a matter of spending more time, and it will take time. But if there is something to be found out about that cover, the people on our side may not be the ones who are unlucky.”

There are so many churches in Tianjiao, all of which are secretly distributed in various places.

Some of them are secretly taking orders from Xie Wei.

If Xie Wei went to "pretend" Du Junshan himself, he would not hurt his power; but if Zhang Zhe went, God knows what troubles would come out!

Lu Xian is a businessman on the surface. He has done a lot of business these years, and he doesn't like to encounter such potentially risky things. He frowned tightly and said, "I can't take risks at critical times. Since he wants to sneak into the Tianjiao Among the crowd, this matter is also risky, so we might as well use our strategy and take the opportunity to kill this person. If he dies at the hands of the congregation, the imperial court will think that the plot has been exposed and will not suspect us."

Xie Wei was speechless for a long time.

Lu Xian felt that this was the most appropriate way, and without thinking about it, he said, "I'll go and arrange it now."

He had completely forgotten about Ren Weizhi and the saltworks at the moment, and as soon as he patted the armrest of that chair, he stood up and went to set it up.

Then at the next moment, he heard behind him: "No need."

Lu Xian was stunned, and looked back at Xie Wei, almost unable to believe his ears: "If this person is allowed to disguise himself and sneak into the Heavenly Sect, no one knows what will happen! If you don't get rid of this threat first, you will be afraid of disaster. Infinity! Why not?"

Why?

A face flashed across Xie Wei's mind, it was walking under the dark palace wall, the little girl's eyes were illuminated by the light of the lantern he held in his hand, as if she was about to burn with the fire, scorching and burning bright.

Do you like Zhang Zhe?

like. I like it very much...

At this moment, he was in a daze for a moment, and then looked at Lu Xian's dignified face, and slowly said: "This situation is to invite the king to enter the urn. If Zhang Zhe wants to sneak in alone, there will be no help. Since I have the plan, the court will also I will definitely let me control the overall situation. Zhang Zhe is an official ordered by the court. If he gets nothing and dies, I am afraid that I may not be responsible and cause criticism. Killing him is easy, but it is also a disaster. Why don't you slow down and watch him sneak in to the end What can he know. If he knows something he shouldn't know, it's not too late to find an opportunity to get rid of him before he returns to Beijing with the news."

"..."

This kind of behavior is not Xie Juan's usual style.

Lu Xian keenly realized that besides what Xie Wei said, there must be some reasons that he did not know. However, he pondered for a while in silence, but finally he didn't dare to ask too deeply.

Xie Wei stood on the porch, finished talking to him, only looked at the getting late sky, and walked into the Qinqin Hall.

Lu Xian stood on the porch without moving.

He turned around and looked into the hall, raised his deeply locked brows, and suddenly realized as if he had thought of something: "Wait, that's not right, let's not mention Zhang Zhe. Except for Gong Yicheng, then Cleaning up the forces in Beijing, and even borrowing a knife to kill people, this is clearly a series of tricks! When you killed Gong Yicheng and killed people, you actually told me that there was no plan, don’t you know?!”

Xie Wei stood facing the blank wall again, no lamps were lit in the hall, his back was hidden in the shadows, so he couldn't see clearly.

But Lu Xian could hear his clear and calm voice.

Shi said: "I dare to say it, and you really dare to believe it."

Lu Xian: "..."

Fuck, why didn't I realize you were such a **** before!
