The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 410
Looking at the sumptuous meals piled up on the table in front of him, and the eunuch Zhang Shun bowing cautiously beside him, Bai Mu glanced at him, took out a pair of silver chopsticks from his pocket, and tried every dish, but found nothing. Abnormally, he took another bowl and put a chopstick in each dish, then brought the bowl to Zhang Shun and said coldly, "Eat."

Zhang Shun was obviously afraid of Bai Mu, took the bowl in Bai Mu's hand with trembling hands, took out a pair of chopsticks from his arms, and quickly put the vegetables in the bowl into his mouth.

After he finished eating, Bai Mu stared at it for a long time and found nothing unusual, then turned around and said to a personal guard behind him: "Go invite Your Highness to have a meal."

Not long after, Jiang Chuan and Su Qin came together.

Walking into the flower hall, Jiang Chuan glanced at Zhang Shun and a group of young eunuchs who came to salute, and waved them all down.

He was not used to having a group of people watching him while eating, it was awkward.

The place to eat is in a flower hall in the second entrance courtyard, the sky has already darkened, the lights in the flower hall have been lit, bright but not too dazzling, everything is just right.

Jiang Chuan and Su Qin sat down, and asked Bai Mu to sit down and eat together.

"My lord, the final suggestion is to take Miss Qi and the others over. These people in the palace are always worried." Bai Mu said directly as soon as he sat down.

Jiang Chuan thought for a while, and what Bai Mu said made sense.Now that I am not in Liaodong, the palace in Guangning City is also in name only.Now that Liaodong has been pacified, my center of gravity must be in the pass in the future, so I will definitely live in the capital for a long time.

The reason why Qi Xuan and the others were left in Liaodong before was that everything was not yet determined, and it was naturally inappropriate to bring female servants into the customs.

Now that he has entered the customs and entered the capital, he has stabilized.It was justifiable to take them over.

After all, the people over there are all his direct descendants, so he can rest assured that they will take care of his daily diet and daily life, and he doesn't have to be on guard against someone's petty tricks like now.

Even if he sends back all the people arranged by the emperor regardless of the emperor's face, and then finds some people from outside, he still has this worry.

So the last solution is to take Qi Xuan and the others over, and at the same time let the Black Ice Platform step up the screening of the identities of these people. It is the most appropriate way to do both.

"Okay, you are responsible for this matter, take them over as soon as possible, and leave some people over there to watch." Jiang Chuan nodded.

Bai Mu said in a deep voice: "The last general will send people to set off tomorrow."

The three of them stopped talking and started eating.

The cooks who cook the dishes also come from the imperial dining room in the palace, so the taste of the dishes is certainly not bad.However, Jiang Chuan was used to home-cooked food, so he always felt that something was missing when he ate these delicacies.

After looking at it again, he found that it was because the table was full of vegetables and soup, and there was no staple food.

For Jiang Chuan, if there is no staple food, no matter how many dishes he eats, he will not feel full.

Seeing Jiang Chuan holding up his chopsticks to glance around, Bai Mu, who had been beside Jiang Chuan for a long time, was moved in his heart and asked, "Do you want to eat pasta, my lord?"

Jiang Chuan said with a smile: "How do you know? I thought only Miss Bai and Qi Xuan knew my taste. If I don't eat a bowl of noodles, I feel like I haven't eaten. You go to the kitchen and see if the chef understands my taste. I can make oily noodles."

Bai Mu smiled and said: "The general is not only good at fighting and killing. If he has been with the lord for a long time, if he doesn't have this insight, he will be too incompetent. The general will go to the kitchen to make arrangements."

Jiang Chuan laughed and tapped Bai Mu with his chopsticks and said, "I heard that many people call you Bai Wuchang in private, which is as terrifying as the life-threatening impermanence of the underworld. I didn't expect you, Bai Wuchang, to have such a careful side. Surprising."

Su Qin also smiled and said: "General Bai Mu is rough but meticulous, and he has always done things safely and carefully."

Bai Mu laughed at what the two said, got up and went to the kitchen to make arrangements.

After Bai Mu left, Jiang Chuan put down his chopsticks, his expression became solemn, and he said to Su Qin, "Sir, you also read the confession sent by Heibingtai, please tell me."

Su Qin said solemnly: "It seems that the matter is more serious than previously imagined, and the number of people involved is beyond imagination. And according to the assassin's confession, they will not succeed in one blow, and will continue to plan more assassination plans. Only There is no reason to be a thief for a thousand days, and there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Either we don't do it, or if we do, we will have a thunderbolt to uproot these people in one fell swoop. It is also a good opportunity to give the lord a prestige and let these people see the lord. determination and means."

Jiang Chuan listened carefully and signaled Su Qin to continue.

Su Qin pondered for a while and continued: "My lord, Su Qin thought that in order to truly establish his prestige, he needed internal and external responses and continuous critical strikes, so that the rest of the people who were ready to move would know that Li Zicheng, whom they wanted to rely on, was totally vulnerable. This is the real bottom line."

"You mean to launch another attack on the rogues?" Jiang Chuan asked.

"Exactly, if the lord's troubles in the capital can bring good news, then the two-pronged approach will be taken at the same time, and the lord's reputation will be truly established at that time." Su Qin nodded.

After pondering, Jiang Chuan said: "Sir, what you said is not bad. I think Hu Zongxian and the others are almost arriving in Jinan Mansion now, and the good news should come in a few days. The guards of Jinan Mansion are already rootless and vulnerable to a single blow. Sir, the emperor will clean up the dust for the king in the imperial garden of the palace in three days' time."

Seeing the smile on Jiang Chuan's face, Su Qin's heart moved: "My lord wants to deal with these young people that day?"

Jiang Chuan laughed and said, "What better opportunity is there? The emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty will be there that day."

Su Qin understood what Jiang Chuan meant in an instant. What better chance could there be than to kill chickens and monkeys in front of the emperor?
"My lord, since Su Qin is the head of the palace, then this matter will be handled by the minister, and the lord will not be disappointed." Su Qin suddenly stood up, cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

Jiang Chuan waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and said with a smile, "This matter is supposed to be handled by the husband, and I'm naturally relieved when the husband handles the business."

Su Qin also laughed, and the two talked about some details.

At this time, Bai Mu came, and Zhang Shun behind him was holding a mahogany plate, on which were two bowls of verdant green onions, bright white noodles, and fragrant oily noodles.

"My lord, the noodles are here. Try it to see if it tastes right. Although the cook can't make it, there is a maid who can make it, so I let her do it." Bai Mu said happily.

Jiang Chuan said "Oh", took the bowl and picked a chopstick and put it in his mouth. After eating, he praised: "That's right, that's the taste. You just said it was made by a maid, who is it?"

Bai Mu called out, and a maid in purple palace attire floated in and saluted Jiang Chuan.

When Jiang Chuan saw it, it turned out to be the maid named Deng Xiaojin who helped him take a bath.
