Zongwu: Start as Jinyiwei, invincible and powerful!

Duan Tianya said, "I originally planned to live in seclusion overseas for the rest of my life, but Cao Zhengchun rebelled, and my wife contracted a strange illness and needed treatment in the Central Plains, so I came back."

"My adoptive father raised me from childhood. He is like a teacher and a father to me. I cannot lay a hand on him. Moreover, my adoptive father only wants to marry Miss Suxin and has no intention of treason. Your Majesty is overthinking it."

"I cannot be both loyal and filial. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me and allow my wife and I to retire overseas."

Shangguan Haitang continued, "Yes, Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. My adoptive father was just impulsive about marrying Su Xin and would definitely not commit treason."

"If my adoptive father really commits a treasonous act, Haitang will definitely distance herself from him and remain loyal to the court and His Majesty."

Gui Hai Yidao stood aside coldly and said calmly: "Whatever Haitang chooses, I will choose accordingly."

After hearing what the three people said, Emperor Zhu Shou's face looked very ugly.

Is this imperial secret agent also a secret agent of the imperial court?

It has completely become Zhu Wusi’s personal tool!

"How dare you! I think you are planning to collude with Zhu Wusi and commit such an act of usurpation and rebellion!" Cao Shaoqin looked at Zhu Shou's face, his eyes flashed, and he stepped forward and shouted,

"Your Majesty, why not take this opportunity to capture these three people and clip Zhu Wusi's wings first."

Yu Huatian followed closely behind and made preparations to take action.

Seeing this, Lin Fan, Jin Jiuling and Zhuge Zhengwo calmly surrounded Duan Tianya and the other two.

Thinking of Shangguan Haitang's next words, Emperor Zhu Shou pondered for a while, then waved his hand to stop a few people, and then looked at Shangguan Haitang and said:

"I hope Haitang and Yidao, you can remember what we said today!"

As Shangguan Haitang said, Zhu Wusi has not yet rebelled openly.

At the same time, if he took action against Shangguan Haitang and the other two, he would force them completely to Zhu Wusi's side.

In addition, Emperor Zhu Shou did not understand the strength of the crowd and felt that he could not defeat Shangguan Haitang and the other two in a short period of time. This might also attract Zhu Wusi, causing a conflict to break out in advance and giving him an advantage.

Shangguan Haitang clasped his fists and said, "Haitang will never dare to forget."

Gui Hai Yidao followed up, "Me too."

"You guys go down first!"

Zhu Shou took a deep breath and said to Shangguan Haitang and the other two with a grim expression.

"Wei Chen resigns!"

The three of them clasped their fists and saluted, then slowly retreated with caution.

Looking at the backs of Shangguan Haitang and the other two as they left, Zhu Shou's face still looked very unhappy.

After a while, Zhu Shou regained his composure. He looked at everyone in the imperial study and asked, "Do you have any way to deal with Zhu Wusi?"

Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this.

Lin Fan's eyes flickered slightly, and he clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, the Iron-hearted Divine Marquis himself is not something to be feared."

"No matter how powerful one person is, it is difficult to fight against the entire court. The most important thing now is to find out why the ten generals support Zhu Wusi."

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Grand Secretary Fu immediately echoed, "Master Lin is absolutely right. Zhu Wusi and the ten generals don't seem to have had a very close relationship in the past. I wonder why they would support Zhu Wusi."

Zhu Shou's eyes lit up slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Minister Lin is right. The most crucial thing is the Ten Generals. They are in charge of most of the Great Zhou's army. If they cause chaos, the Great Zhou will be in danger!"

"By then, I'm afraid the four vassal states will all rebel and take advantage of the chaos to rise up, which will be a truly fatal crisis for the Great Zhou! East Factory, West Factory, and Embroidered Uniform Guard, cease your mutual investigations and focus your efforts on investigating the reasons why the ten generals support Zhu Wusi."

"The slaves obey the orders!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Cao Shaoqin, Yu Huatian and Lin Fan looked at each other and responded at the same time.

After a pause, Emperor Zhu Shou continued, "The Six Gates and the Divine Marquisate must cooperate with the actions of the East and West Factories and the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

The Six Gates and Zhuge Zhengwo's Shenhou Mansion are more focused on investigating cases and exploring the secrets of officials. The East and West Factories and the Embroidered Uniform Guard are more adept at this.

Therefore, Zhu Shou let the East and West Factories be the main ones, while the Six Gates and the Shenhou Mansion served as auxiliary ones.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Jiuling and Zhuge Zhengwo also clasped their fists in response.

Cheng Shifei patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, what about me? What am I supposed to do as a secret agent?"

Zhu Shou looked at Cheng Shifei, who was so active, and smiled. "For the time being, pretend nothing happened. Go undercover in Hulong Villa and gather intelligence from the inside."

Cheng Shifei patted his chest and said loudly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, leave it to me!"

Lin Fan's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I would like to borrow someone from the Divine Marquis' Mansion. Is that possible?"

Zhu Shou casually asked, "Who do you want to borrow?"

Zhuge Zhengwo also looked in Lin Fan's direction, as if thinking about something.

Lin Fan said, "Your humble servant would like to borrow Miss Wuqing's help for a while."

Zhu Shou looked at Zhuge Zhengwo and said, "Lord Shen, is it okay for Miss Wuqing to help Lord Lin for a while?"

Zhuge Zhengwo clasped his fists and said, "Your humble servant obeys your command."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan first thanked Emperor Zhu Shou, and then thanked Zhuge Zhengwo.

Zhu Shou said, "Alright, Grand Secretary Fu will stay. The rest of you can go down and quickly find out why the ten generals support Zhu Wusi."

"Only by knowing the cause can I prescribe the right remedy and win them over to dissolve their alliance."

"Wei Chen resigns!"

"Slave, please leave!"

Upon hearing this, everyone bowed to the emperor and then slowly retreated.

Not long after, everyone left the palace.

"Lord Shen, I will go with you to the Lord Shen's Mansion," Lin Fan said with a smile after leaving the palace, looking at Zhuge Zhengwo.

Zhuge Zhengwo smiled and said, "Then let's go together, Lord Lin, please!"

After saying that, Zhuge Zhengwo extended his hand to Lin Fan and made a gesture of invitation.

"God, please!"

Lin Fan said politely, then walked side by side with Zhuge Zhengwo towards the Shenhou Mansion.

"Three of you, we'll be leaving first."

Immediately, Lin Fan spoke to Cao Shaoqin, Yu Huatian and Jin Jiuling again.

The three of them also exchanged polite words.

[Ding! Triggering sign-in, host, please go to the Shenhou Mansion to sign in, the sign-in reward is unknown! ]

At this moment, the familiar voice of the system sounded again in Lin Fan's mind.

Lin Fan's heart moved slightly, and he became even more looking forward to this trip to the Shenhou Mansion.

At the palace exit, after Lin Fan and Zhuge Zhengwo left, Cao Shaoqin said to Yu Huatian, "Next, let's see which one is more efficient, the East Factory or the West Factory!"

Yu Huatian said calmly: "West Factory is not afraid of any challenge!"

After saying that, Yu Huatian nodded to Jin Jiuling and turned away.

"Humph, you only saved Consort Shu by taking advantage of the situation. Do you really think you are that capable?"

Cao Shaoqin looked at Yu Huatian's back and snorted coldly.

"Sir Jin, we are going back to the East Factory too," Cao Shaoqin said goodbye to Jin Jiuling and left.

The two of them were naturally pretending to be at loggerheads with each other for outsiders to see.

Jin Jiuling looked at the backs of the people leaving, his eyes flickering slightly, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
