Shi Pinglei said: "Mom, don't worry, we will definitely succeed this time."
"By then, the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion will be completely destroyed, and my sister will be able to get back all the grievances she has suffered."
Seeing Shi Pinglei so conceited, Old Lady Shi had to remind him, "Do you know how many spies have been caught in the capital in the past few months?"
"Southern Xinjiang and the previous dynasty arranged so many things, but the crown prince arranged for people to find so many of them, and destroyed many bases by following the clues. Now there are very few people who can still hide, which means that we can't get a lot of information."
Shi Pinglei said sternly, "I underestimated this prince. It's a pity that the medicine from Southern Xinjiang didn't kill him."
"How did he get better?"
"And that Wei Ying, he was seriously ill last year and should have died, but he got better again. It's so strange."
"Mom, do you think they have a great doctor who can cure the poison in Southern Xinjiang?"
Madam Shi said, "I don't know about that. We could have gotten some information, but many spies were caught and died, so we don't know if there is a miracle doctor."
"Now that the capital is under martial law, it is difficult to arrange spies."
"So this time we have to activate Shen Lian to pass on the message."
Shi Pinglei said: "I know, she is a Class A spy. She was sent to Wu Ye by a war, causing the Wu family to fall apart."
"She has been hiding well over the years so she won't be suspected."
Madam Shi said, "Yes, in order to avoid suspicion, she rarely leaves the house."
"Even if there are banquets, I rarely attend them, because if I spend too much time with outsiders, I will always be exposed. This way I can hide."
"But I don't know why. Some time ago, the Crown Prince arranged for the Secret Investigation Department to secretly investigate many spies, and Shen Lian was almost suspected."
"Fortunately, nothing happened at the critical moment."
Shi Pinglei said: "So I know that this time I must succeed."
"Wu Ye deserves to die too."
Old Madam Shi knew that once Wu Ye died, both the old General Wu and the young General Wu would rush back to the capital to prepare for Wu Ye's funeral.
Even if only one person is sent back, the border guarded by the Wu family will become weak, and it will be easier for the Beirong army to capture the border.
These are all part of the plan for cooperation between Southern Xinjiang and the previous dynasty.
"And the crown prince also has to stay in Jiangzhou. We can't let him go back."
Shi Pinglei nodded and said, "I know this. This prince is a formidable opponent."
"With him around, it's hard to restore the previous dynasty. Now that he's dead, it'll be much easier."
The hope of the Great Yan Dynasty lies in this Crown Prince.
"The Southern Border magician observed the sky at night and knew that there would be a flood in Jiangzhou, so he made plans. Who would have thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would actually make preparations in advance to prevent the flood."
"Fortunately, we arranged for people to deliberately damage several dams overnight, causing a flood in Jiangzhou."
Otherwise, Jiangzhou would have been saved and none of the subsequent events would have happened.
"This prince is very capable and should not be underestimated."
"There are sorcerers in the southern border who can observe the celestial phenomena at night. The Great Yan Dynasty also has the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. The Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated the heavy rain and floods. It is possible that the prince made preparations in advance."
"Humph, the current Imperial Observatory is no longer the same level as before."
After talking to his mother, Shi Pinglei went to carry out his mission.
Old Madam Shi slowly closed her eyes and a line of tears flowed out.
After a while, the confidant of Madam Shi appeared and said, "Madam, the eldest daughter is ill in the residence of the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery. Miss Chuchu sent the news. We need to send someone to visit her."
The eldest lady that the nanny was referring to was naturally Shi from the current Earl of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.
Madam Shi said dejectedly: "No need!"
She knew that Shi was ruined.
"The Wei family is really not so easy to ignore. How can they be killed so easily?"
Mammy said, "I think there is something wrong with Miss Jiang."
"The eldest lady sent a message back saying that she wanted to kill Miss Jiang. Last time, when the poison was cast, Madam Zhu who was by the eldest lady's side died in her hands."
Madam Shi asked, "Do you think she can be killed so easily?"
"Even before, we asked the underworld forces to help her but they didn't kill her, and now someone is secretly protecting her."
"This is not a good time to kill her. It will easily alert the enemy. It is more important to protect our men and complete the mission."
"It won't be too late to kill her after the matter is done."
When Old Lady Shi said this, there was murderous intent in her eyes.
……
The House of the Loyal and Brave Earl
Madam Wei Ying had been asking secret guards to keep an eye on the Shi family's movements.
When she learned that Old Madam Shi had personally visited the Huguo Temple, she felt something was not right.
Madam Wei Ying asked Nanny Yan, "Is there any movement from Shi's side?"
Although Shi had been fed the dream poison and became sleepy and was only breathing her last, the lady was still cautious and on guard.
Be on guard against what the Shi family or even the Shi family members may do.
And Jiang Chuchu, who had the audacity to arrange for someone to kill Jiang Zhinian in the mansion last time. The lady had had that person beaten with 15 boards, made to kneel in the ancestral hall, and confined to his room.
Jiang Chuchu's entire yard was guarded by guards, and she couldn't get out even if she wanted to.
Jiang Chuchu lay on the bed, the injury on her back had not yet fully healed.
She can't cause any trouble.
Nanny Yan said, "He only has one breath left."
Madam Wei Ying said, "We asked the Shi family to come pick them up, but there is no news at all?"
In fact, Wei Ying arranged for someone to deliver the message to the Shi family in order to get the Shi family to send someone over, just to see what the Shi family's attitude was and to find out some news.
But the Shi family seemed to have forgotten about Shi and never thought of taking her back.
"No, the Shi family seems to have forgotten the Shi family."
"This shows that they have problems."
Wei Ying called the secret guard Wei Qin and said, "Tell me everything that Madam Shi did in Huguo Temple, including who she met with, even if she didn't speak. Tell me in detail."
Wei Ying still doubted what Madam Shi was going to do.
It is impossible that Old Madam Shi went to Huguo Temple for no reason.
Wei Qin told all the news he was looking into.
"You mean that Mrs. Wu?"
"Yes, it's Mrs. Wu whom General Wu brought back from the border that year."
Wei Ying frowned deeply.
Now she knows everything that happens in the court.
He also knew that the Crown Prince was going to provide disaster relief, and that General Wu would take his troops to escort food to Jiangzhou.
The Ministry of Revenue is now collecting food.
At this time, Mrs. Wu went to the Huguo Temple and met with Mrs. Shi.
Even though we didn't have much contact and we only happened to say a few words, it was such a coincidence.
"Go call Chinen over. If she's busy, tell her all the details of what you saw."
Jiang Zhinian had never told her about Mrs. Wu before.
I don't know if there is any problem.
But it was this woman who forced Qi Qingtao away back then. She must not be a simple person.
If Qi Qingtao didn't have some tricks, he would never have left the Wu family so decisively.
You have to know that Qi Qingtao was taught by Qi Taifu, a great scholar of the time. Qi Qingtao is actually a person who cares most about the overall situation.
