A kiss, and I'll live another day; they begged me not to go crazy.

General Wang felt a sweet warmth in his heart:

You know, this is the first time I've ever entrusted him with a task so solemnly!

Moreover, the younger brother chose to find himself first rather than his father.

This undoubtedly shows that in the younger brother's heart, his status as an elder brother is in no way inferior to that of his father!

Thinking of this, General Wang felt an even stronger sense of pride.

......

After returning to the residence,

General Wang carefully followed his younger brother's instructions and placed the items in the study.

After finishing, he turned and walked towards his room.

......

In truth, he was also somewhat puzzled as to why his younger brother forbade him from meeting the messenger.

But in the end, they chose to remain silent.

After all, in his view, this was not a particularly important matter.

As long as it is confirmed that the Wang residence has not been burgled, there is nothing to worry about.

......

In fact, when General Wang returned home,

Night had fallen, and all was quiet except for the occasional chirping of insects.

General Wang dragged his exhausted body slowly into the bedroom and fell asleep immediately.

However, this night was destined to be anything but peaceful for him.

......

In the middle of the night, General Wang rubbed his sleepy eyes and suddenly remembered the secret edict and the jade pendant.

So he got out of bed and tiptoed toward the study.

The faint moonlight shone through the window onto the desk, illuminating the two objects.

General Wang looked closely and saw that they were still there, untouched!

......

Seeing that the two items were in the same positions as when he placed them, General Wang began to doubt his memory.

Could it be that all my previous impressions were just illusions?

But that's exactly what my brother told him, that he should put these things in the study.

Filled with doubt, General Wang reopened the letter written by Wang Er.

The handwriting on it was clearly visible, and the words "placed in the study" were exactly the same as I remembered.

......

At this moment, General Wang fell into deep thought.

Why has this item not been sent out yet?

......

He never expected that the reason for the problem would be so simple and unpretentious.

original,

Both Su Aige and Tian Tian had put the matter out of their minds and gone to sleep.

......

Su Aige thought to herself that the emperor would need some time to verify the truth of the matter.

Besides, how could she know when General Wang would submit these things?

Therefore, she chose to wait patiently and did not rush into action.

......

Meanwhile, Tian Tian was completely bewildered and knew nothing about the whole thing.

He simply followed Su Aige's instructions and waited for further instructions.

Su Aige told him,

There may be items from General Wang that need to be delivered soon, but the exact time is uncertain.

That's why Tian Tian was "ignorant and fearless," and slept soundly without a care in the world.

......

And so, poor General Wang tossed and turned through the long night.

He went to the study again and again to check.

But I always found those things lying steadily on the desk, without moving an inch.

......

Meanwhile, in Hezhou, Sun Shan and Xiao Wu, along with their men, rode swiftly on horseback.

In less than an hour, they arrived at the garrison of the military command.

When they told the gatekeepers that they wanted to see Wang Er's father's old friend,

The guard, who had initially looked stern, suddenly became very welcoming and invited them to sit in a room to wait while they drank tea.

......

The other party arrived shortly afterward, even faster than they had anticipated.

At first, the old friend mistakenly thought that Sun Shan had come specifically to see him.

He was dressed in armor, which made him look even more imposing.

"Hey, Sun Ziwei's son, what brings you here?"

"Did your dad send you to find me?"

The moment this person opened his mouth, his tone ruined his image.

......

After Sun Shan explained his purpose,

When they explained that they had come to find the Military Commander, the old friend's smile vanished.

An attitude of "I'm doing this all for your own good":

"This military commander has been bedridden for a long time!"

If you need anything, just come to me.

He raised his chin slightly and spoke with a hint of arrogance.

......

Upon hearing this, Sun Shan merely shook his head subtly and said nothing more.

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to leave the area.

Based on Sun Shan's understanding of this person,

This person will certainly not easily reveal the address of the military commander; he will probably make things difficult for me.

Since that's the case, I might as well find out for myself.

......

Just then, Xiao Wu gave Sun Shan a look, "Wait for my good news."

Then, with a flash, he disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

He quietly followed the arrogant and haughty man.

......

About ten minutes later, the man suddenly started crying and sneezing.

While wiping his nose, he choked up as he told Xiao Wu the exact address of the military commander's residence.

Not only that,

He kept emphasizing to Xiaowu that everything he had just said was true.

The military commander had indeed been ill for some time, and he was even unable to attend the birthday banquet for the prefect's mother.

At this point, the man even told Xiao Wu with a hint of pride,

He knew this so clearly because he himself was the one who went to the banquet on behalf of the military commander.

......

The man said that if anything happened, I could really contact him.

If he can't do it, he can ask the prefect for help.

"The prefect is extremely powerful; there is nothing he cannot do in this barren prefecture."

......

He was very certain:

"I won't tell anyone you've been here, and I'll also give instructions to the guards."

They thought Xiao Wu and his group had come to cause trouble for the military commander, so they quickly tried to be friendly.

......

Xiao Wu remained silent.

Judging from the other party's behavior

It can be seen that the other party's influence at the garrison of this state army is probably no less than that of the military commander.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to make such a bold promise to help conceal someone he saw as plotting to harm the military commander.

......

Xiao Wu led the way, recounting in detail what had just happened to Sun Shan.

After listening, Sun Shan replied without hesitation and with unwavering certainty:

"Walk!

"Let's go find Uncle Wang."

......

Based on what Xiao Wu said...

It is likely that the military commander will not play a significant role in bringing down the prefect.

However, whether it will actually work or not remains to be seen.

We also need to find someone who can view the issue from an objective standpoint to make a judgment.

Uncle Wang is such a suitable candidate.

......

When everyone finally went to meet this Uncle Wang...

I was initially a little uneasy, worried that the other party was also just blindly praising the prefect.

But this feeling was quickly dispelled.

......
