Lang riding a war horse

Shouma Township, one of the Seven Kingdoms, is located in the south of Jiangyun, where the climate is hot and humid all year round, and it is rich in silk cloth.

The geographical location of Shouma Township is quite embarrassing. Its land area is not large, but it is adjacent to Jiangyun, which is the second largest in the seven countries, and Zhaofeng Lake on the other side, and the other side of Zhaofeng Lake is The absolute overlord among the seven great nations - Minglu Kingdom.

In such a geographical location, Shouma Township can't do anything else, but is the best at being a human being.

Whether it is Liegu and Wuyan Gaoliu whose land area is smaller than him, or Jieyue and Minglu who are powerful, they all make friends very well. In addition, the cloth produced in their country is a treasure that is hard to find. The country is naturally happy to make friends with him in exchange for some silk cloth.

Jiang Yun was no exception. In the previous Xishamen Incident, Shouma Township had thousands of cloth offerings. Even Gu Zhen himself had several clothes made of Shouma Township material.

In the original book, this country has always been a peacemaker, neither causing trouble nor committing crimes, and it is also the only country that was not wiped out by Jiang Yun.

In the original book, Zhongshou Ma Township was wiped out by the Ming Dynasty.

In the later stage of the book, it is basically the battle between Jiang Yun and Ming Lu.Ming Law has always been the overlord among the Seven Great Nations, and it is far from comparable to Jiang Yun in terms of land area, resources and national strength.Although Jiang Yunxu took the second place, there are still eighty thirds between the second and the first.

Therefore, when Jiangyun wiped out Wuyan Gaoliu in the early stage, it didn't pay much attention when Liegu was there, as if a lion saw a few sheep fighting in front of him.

But later, Jiangyun grew stronger and stronger. After Jieyue, Xuancheng, and even Bingqi Mountain, which was not part of the mainland, were all leveled by Jiangyun, the lion had a sense of crisis and felt that he needed to fill in With his own national strength, he took Shouma Township, which was trembling in the corner, into his pocket.

But that's all very late. At least Minglu won't have any sense of crisis when Jiangyun regained a mere five swallows and tall willows, let alone Shouma Township. It didn't make trouble from beginning to end. Giving a gift to this country, and giving a gift to that country tomorrow, Gu Zhen really can't figure out why they suddenly rushed out to snatch the child.

Or in front of him?

And why are all these killers crowded together? ?It’s fine if there’s Kong Anning, and I can’t bear the appearance of medaka. Why did you Shouma Township come in again? Does your silkworm baby stop spinning silk? ?

Gu Zhen thumped his thighs angrily, and most importantly, you have gained two points for tossing me like this! !

"Xiyue, are you saying that the man in black is running in the direction of Mount Yangtai?"

"It's that direction, but it's not clear whether it's going to Xiyue in Yangtai Mountain or not."

Gu Zhen nodded, the direction of Yangtai Mountain is the direction of Wucai County, there is nothing but official roads there, where is he going to take Yi'er?And what is the identity of Yi'er, worthy of being snatched by people from Shouma Township?

They are still in Kong Anning's mansion, and it is not good to discuss anything openly, so Gu Zhen asked Prince Xiyue to take Jiang Yunxuan back to the room to rest first, and he and He Xuliang also went back to the room for a while to discuss.

At this moment, He Xuliang suddenly asked: "Where's Yeran?"

Gu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and said, "Oh, I asked him to follow Master Zhuge."

He Xuliang asked, "Why?"

"Durun came to look for him in the morning. It seemed that there was something wrong. Didn't you always ask me to be wary of him? I asked Yeran to keep an eye on him."

He Xuliang nodded after listening, and Gu Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to talk to He Xuliang about the "Secret Book".

But what is more important right now is the matter of the man in black. He actually doesn’t know much about Shouma Township, because they were wiped out by Ming Law, and the original book didn’t go into too much detail. There is only one plot mentioned, which is Shouma Township The princess fled to Jiangyun before destroying the country, and had a fling with our Yingwei hero.

Thousands of miles to send cannons, the ceremony is light and the affection is heavy.

Alas, sin.

Gu Zhen thought about it and asked, "How much do you know about Shouma Township?"

He Xuliang shook his head and said, "Not many." He looked at Gu Zhen and said, "I'm just a general."

Gu Zhen blinked, let out a "huh", and glared at him: "You mean that the prime minister doesn't understand enough, and that he is incompetent?"

He Xuliang laughed in a low voice after hearing this, and said, "I didn't mean that."

Gu Zhen rolled his eyes, and He Xuliang stretched out his hand to grab the flesh on his face, and said, "Don't think so seriously, it's just that you're wearing clothes made of materials from Shouma Township, and you don't necessarily have to be from Shouma Township. "

Gu Zhenxin said it made sense, but then he thought about it again, the materials in Shouma Township are all treasures for tribute, and ordinary people, even ordinary officials, would never be able to use them. Besides, they are night clothes, so they must be quite high-ranking and powerful. Only people who can afford it.

Gu Zhen frowned and said: "...there are people from the imperial city."

He Xuliang nodded: "If the other party is not from Shouma Township, then this possibility is the greatest."

After hearing this, Gu Zhen bowed his head and remained silent, but neither situation was optimistic.

If the other party is from Shouma Township, then it can't explain why they have to travel thousands of miles to snatch a child at the risk of undermining diplomacy?Either the status of this adoptive child is extremely special, or it really doesn't make sense.

If the opponent is from the imperial city, then it is very likely that they came for him.

After all, when they were in Jinli Town before, they had already vaguely felt that their itinerary had been exposed. There must be someone above Ma Junshou and the others, but they were too worried at the time and didn't ask much.

If the person this time is from the imperial city, it can only mean that the other party has not given up and wants to take some action against them.

kill?Silence?In short, it will definitely not be a good thing.

They came out with Jiang Yunxuan, the current emperor, and the prime minister and Taiwei. With this kind of thought, they can basically be charged with rebellion.

But the question came back again, who is the righteous son, and why are they robbing the righteous son?

Gu Zhen couldn't figure it out, scratched his head and asked, "Why are they robbing the righteous son? Who is the righteous son?"

He Xuliang was really irritable looking at Gu Zhen, so he held him in his arms and rubbed his fingers one by one.

After being coaxed like this, Gu Zhen lost his temper, and all the big and small things were wiped out by these small actions.

He Xuliang said: "Don't worry, think about what Xiyue and Wang Gonggong Xuan'er said again, maybe you can think of something."

When Gu Zhen heard the words, he carefully recalled what they said at the time. It seemed that the man in black ran away from them with his son in his arms...

Wait a minute, why did Xuan'er see the man in black?

Yi'er's ward and Xuan'er's room are not on the same line at all. If the man in black wants to escape Kong Anning's mansion quickly, he should not pass Yi'er's room at all, but Xuan'er saw it and was even chased by Xi Yue kill.

... What if he was going to pass through Xuan'er's room in the first place?

Besides Yi'er, why would he take Xuan'er away?

Thinking of this possibility, he was shocked into a cold sweat. He originally wanted to snatch Xuan'er after snatching Yi'er from the ward, but was discovered by Xiyue, stealing a chicken is nothing but losing money.

The more he thinks about it, the more Gu Zhen thinks it is possible, and if so, then there is a great possibility that the man in black came from the imperial city, and some high-ranking official ordered him to snatch Xuan'er away. Playing the trick of coercing the emperor to make the princes.

After Gu Zhen shared his thoughts with He Xuliang, He Xuliang also felt that it made some sense, and expressed his guess, he said: "The man in black may not know which one is Xuan'er or Yi'er, which is the current sage. Let's snatch it together and make a decision."

Gu Zhen nodded, thinking it made sense.

However, He Xuliang said another guess in a blink of an eye: "Or maybe the other party snatched the adopted son to deceive others. It would be best if he got it. If he didn't get it, he could use the name of human trafficker or sacrifice to get rid of the crime. The worst." In such a situation, they snatched Xuan'er but revealed it in advance before they succeeded, and they could also lie that they didn't know that this is the current emperor, they just wanted to snatch a few children to sell or sacrifice to them."

He Xuliang stared directly into Gu Zhen's eyes quietly, and he saw that Gu Zhen was covered in white sweat. He continued slowly: "After all, this crime is much lighter than kidnapping the emperor and attempting to rebel."

Gu Zhen broke out in a cold sweat, and cried out in his heart, you are such a clever little ghost!

The other party thought too carefully! !

Gu Zhen couldn't sit still anymore, so he patted the table and said, "Then what are we waiting for, go to Yangtai Mountain and have a look."

He Xuliang grabbed him, mouthed "shh" at him, and said, "Sit down, I have something to tell you."

Gu Zhen sat down obediently, and He Xuliang said: "A few days ago when I went shopping for food on the street, I heard people talking about something."

Gu Zhen asked, "What's the matter?"

"Master Wang, the governor of Wucai County, do you still have any impression?"

Gu Zhen thought for a while, and it was true that when they first arrived in Wucai County that night, they heard a few words from Xiao Er when they were at the inn.

"It seems to be a rich man who sells silk. I still bought this official, but it seems to be a good official. What's wrong?"

He Xuliang said again: "Do you know who bought his officials from?"

Gu Zhen's back felt a little chilly again, and he shook his head.

He Xuliang opened and closed his mouth: "Liao Qian."

Minister of Rites, Liao Qian.

Ever since Gao Jin was beheaded by Gu Zhen, his party members were also wiped out by Gu Zhen and He Xuliang, but because Liao Qian had some achievements before, he was not closely related to Gao Jin, so there was no Dealing with it, after all, it is very time-consuming and labor-intensive for Gu Zhen to change the blood of high-level officials. He still advocates not to change if he can not change.

He had been wary of this Liao Qian before, but after the Xishamen Incident, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Officials checked each other, and Li Anfeng's father, a stubborn old man who was devoted to serving the country, intervened. I didn't continue to manage it anymore.

Because I'm really tired mmp, I didn't have time to cure my impotence at that time!

But looking at it now, I'm afraid it's too early to let it go. Even Li Anfeng's letter a few days ago mentioned this Liao Qian emphatically. Does this Liao Qian really have any other thoughts?
