[Three hundred and seven times] Discussing countermeasures leads to the culprit
Deng Qing may not believe that his brother would marry a dancer as his wife. In his eyes, his sister-in-law's life is not worth mentioning. He even felt that even if he poisoned his brother's beloved, his brother would not be able to seek justice from him. You must know that the prince of the royal family who took Jiangnan geisha as his wife would make people laugh at him and shame the Pingding Palace. He probably thought that the Pingding King would never indulge his son so much... because of the life of a inferior dancer, he would become an enemy of the Deng family. After all, Deng Qing was behind him, and he was extremely favored by His Majesty..."
Deng Qing still does not know Cao He's true identity, nor does he know that the most beautiful dancer in the world, Shao Yan is the sister of Jiang Chengyi, a popular figure in the imperial court. Even though he had investigated Jiang Chengjia's identity in private many times, the Shui Pavilion did a good job in Shao Yan's household registration documents and almost nowhere to criticize him, so he could not find any flaws, so he was sure that the girl was Shao Yan.
In his understanding, Cao He was famous on the border and was a famous general of the Cao family. Cao Yong, the king of Punishment, cared about his son very much. Such a person, even if he abandoned his Jia and returned to the wilderness and traveled through the mountains and rivers, was also the object of high hopes for the whole family of Cao. If he fell in love with a dancer and wanted to marry her, it would be equivalent to severing his future, and the Cao family would never tolerate it.
Lu Xun lowered his eyes and thought about it carefully before he thought about it clearly.
"Little Sanlang is right... Since we have learned that Deng Qing wants to harm the Queen, we cannot sit idly by and act as soon as possible to take down Deng Qing. Otherwise... it may cause the Queen to fall into danger again." Lu Xun clenched his hands tightly, his expression was extremely tense.
Dou Yueshan glanced at him and asked helplessly: "General Lu wants to take down Deng Qing? Do you... have any detailed plans?"
Lu Xun was stunned by his question, opened his mouth and stiffened his body and couldn't answer.
Dou Yueshan shook her head laughed and cried and said, "It is a fool to take down Deng Qing in this side city. First of all, there is no evidence in our hands that he poisoned his sister-in-law to murder his sister-in-law. Secondly, not to mention that his foundation in the border city and even the north is very stable, just by his brother's plan, we cannot confront him here. Deng Qing is also the heir carefully trained by Deng Guozhong. If we can't calm down for a moment and reveal our identity, it is not only the brother who suffers... The entire Jingshuwei, even the Marquis of Huaiyin, the Prince's Mansion, and the Eastern Palace will be implicated. If Your Majesty and the King of Huai have to investigate it to the end... If it is not done well, it will destroy all the secret networks that the brother has worked hard to build over the years."
Lu Xun's brain was straight and he could never get around when thinking about problems. Dou Yueshan's words lingered in his mind for a long time. He straightened his mind and then slowly figured out some clues from it, and his face gradually became darker.
Ji Xianyi understood Dou Yueshan's words, and for this reason, he was even more worried. They went to the border town to make a secret plan and were careful all the way. Later, Xiao Sa helped him to cover up the traces. Even if he borrowed Cao He's name and stayed in the city, it would not be easy to confront Deng Qing. Because no matter whether it was the identity of the Marquis of Huaiyin or the identity of the young master of the Prince of Pingding's Mansion, it was not advisable to leave too many traces in the outside world.
In the eyes of the world and even the ministers of the court and the people, Cao He had already left his armor and returned to the land to protect the peace of the Cao family and did not care about the world. If Deng Qing angered Deng Qing, he would expose the news that Cao He was in the border city and even led the troops to command in private. Then no matter how much credit Cao He was, the current Emperor of Wei would definitely be punished by the Pingding Palace in the name of not observing the orders of the late emperor.
If something happened to Jiang Chengjia in the border town, Ning Nanyou's identity as the Marquis of Huaiyin was exposed, it would further encourage Deng's arrogance, allowing Deng Qing to seize the handle of the regent Huai King and impeach Cheng. The Emperor of Wei had been under a lot of backlog of years, and suddenly learned that the Marquis of Huaiyin had sent troops from the city to the north despite the safety of Linhe Border Line. He would definitely mobilize troops to investigate the matter, and he would bite him to fight back against the Huai King's Mansion. In this way, the regent Huai King would no longer trust Ning Nanyou. This would destroy all their plans and may even cause unintentional disasters.
Dou Yueshan stood in front of the stove, staring at the bowl of cold white porridge, and fine cold sweat emerged from her forehead.
The time was waiting a long time. Just when everyone was helpless, the young man wearing a light-colored robe with a delicate appearance and a handsome and beautiful face suddenly smiled slightly, showed his frown, and gradually dispelled the dark clouds on his face.
Lu Xun was delighted and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Did Xiaosanlang think of any good idea?"
Dou Yueshan raised her eyebrows and said lightly: "Speaking of this...we really have to thank this general of the Protector who rushed over... and sent him a handle. We can't fight with him... but another person in the border town can fight against him."
Ji Xianzhi frowned slightly: "Is Xiao Sanlang saying...Governor Xiao Sa?"
"That's right." Dou Yueshan nodded and said, "Xiao Sa has made countless achievements. Under his governance, Yongzhou rarely has the appearance of poor people's livelihood. In recent years, he has not feared power and is a pure and pure faction. He is extremely popular with the people. He is a local important official who His Majesty trusts very much. Even King Huai is not good at attacking him... Deng Guozhong was even more polite when he saw him."
Although Ji Xianzhi agreed with what he said, his expression was not good: "Although that said,... Governor Xiao did not know what the lord planned, and the lord specially explained that he should not be involved... I am only afraid..."
Dou Yueshan curled her lips, raised her eyebrows, and smiled gently, "Sir, I've been worried. I didn't want to involve Governor Xiao. I just said that I would lend him some money. Governor Xiao and King Pingding were close friends. He would keep the safety of the Prince Pingding's Mansion in any case. Therefore... to a certain extent, he is on the same front as us. Otherwise, he would not help his brother hide his identity.
Since that is the case... As long as we explain Deng Qing's threat to the Prince Pingding Mansion clearly to him, we can let him go with me to the Protectorate Mansion... so that Deng Qing dares not continue to act rashly. Besides, I believe... Even if my brother, after these matters are settled, if he wants to hand over the border city's achievements to Deng Qing for future plans, he needs to explain to this Lord Xiao and give him a reason to leave the border city with confidence. The current move is just... this explanation is a little advanced."
After the words finished, Ji Xianzhi breathed a little relieved and nodded secretly to agree with his thoughts.
Lu Xun immediately said, "This is a good idea... Xiaosanlang, I will go and invite the governor."
He was about to rush out, but Dou Yueshan rushed forward, and reached out to grab it and pulled the back of his collar.
"Come back!" Dou Yueshan hurriedly shouted twice, laughing and crying: "It's not the time yet. We just said... we need to seize the handle. At present, the evidence of Deng Qing's murder of his sister-in-law has not been found, so how can we alarm the snake? Tonight... This maid died unfortunately, and the thief failed to succeed. He will definitely seek opportunities to sneak in and continue to be detrimental to his sister-in-law. We waited for the rabbit... We were tortured and severely tortured, and only after we got the confession and testimony could we act. The negotiations tomorrow also need to obtain evidence before we can proceed."
Ji Xianzhi also pulled Lu Xun together and said calmly: "Little Sanlang is right. Lu Chengzhong, don't you want to be so reckless?"
Lu Xun shook his head, smiled awkwardly, stood aside, and said dejectedly.
"But now... the little adult Crescent is trapped in the Protector's Mansion..." Ji Xianzhi said in his heart, "I am afraid that no one can paint the mask for Xiaosanlang."
But Dou Yueshan didn't look anxious and slowly fell on the girl behind the hazy fog: "Sir, don't worry. There is actually someone here who can disguise her."
Ji Xian paused, looked up at him, looked at his eyes and looked into the fog, and murmured in a low voice: "You mean... Miss Qianshan?"
Qianshan, who was standing straight beside her, finally woke up from the sudden situation just now, but her heart was still thrusting. Suddenly, everyone stared at her, and a layer of goose bumps immediately crawled on her back.
She asked stutterly, "My gentlemen, why are you staring at me like this?"
Dou Yueshan pondered for a few minutes: "Miss Qianshan... After following her sister-in-law for many years, are you very proficient in the art of disguise?"
Qianshan frowned and nodded, "I am a little bit more superficial, not as good as my girl. What does my husband ask about this?"
She was completely immersed in fear. When she thought of the bowl of white porridge and the maid who died tragically, and when she thought of Jiang Chengjia, she felt frightened and did not hear the words of these three men. At this moment, she naturally didn't know the reason why they suddenly asked this question.
When Dou Yueshan saw it, she knew that the girl had just left her mind. She was afraid that she didn't listen to a word, so she had to start and talk to her in detail.
After hearing this, Qianshan responded without saying a word: "If I could help Xiaosanlang get the three herbs and make the lord and the daughter leave the border town as soon as possible, I will naturally be willing."
Dou Yueshan paused: "It's a good girl. In addition... I need you to help me with a game... to lead the snake out of the cave and catch all the thieves in the mansion in one place."
Ji Xianzhi walked up and said, "What are the countermeasures for Xiaosanlang?"
Lu Xun and Qianshan both surrounded him, looked at the resourceful young man in front of him seriously.
Dou Yueshan lowered her voice and whispered in the middle, with a certain expression, as if she was quite confident.
The three nodded in agreement: "This plan is very wonderful."
Everyone dispersed, as if they had obtained the Dinghai Scientific Needle, dispelling the sadness on their faces.
