The Second Master of the Iron-blooded Lian of the Red Chamber

Author: Non-North and South

The Palace of Zhongshun is heavily guarded, and idlers are not only unable to get in, but even if they want to monitor the Palace of Zhongshun, it is very easy to be discovered.

Qin Yue followed Jia Daishan on the battlefield for several years, so he naturally knew that King Zhongshun was in charge of the Qiming Organization, which was in charge of spying on intelligence. Going to Prince Zhongshun's mansion to inquire about news was like wielding a sword in front of Guan Gong's gate, and he was more afraid to be careless.

Therefore, although Tan Yue had received Jia Daishan's instructions to pay attention to loyalty to the palace, he did not act rashly.Instead, for several days in a row, he lived in Qinghui Inn next to the intersection from Shenglong Silver House to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, and looked out through the window every day. Sure enough, Tan Yue saw a man wearing official clothes for three days in a row They all passed by this intersection, although the man was dressed in management clothes, but Tan Yue could tell that he had martial arts skills.

After getting these results, Tan Yue was dumbfounded, but at the same time, he couldn't help admiring the Duke's foresight.

Emperor Jinghe, King Zhongshun, and Duke Rongguo, after what a bloody storm, Emperor Jinghe was able to secure the throne, and others just listened to it and felt thrilled.Qin Yue has always thought that people like the three who have lived and died together and supported each other with swords and swords are the strongest allies. He never thought that the Duke of the State would be suspicious of King Zhongshun, let alone that the Duke of the State's suspicion might be against him. of.

Of course it's only possible.Prince Zhongshun's mansion is not far from the mansions of the other princes. From Longsheng Yinlou to several prince's mansions, one has to pass through the Qinghui Inn where Qin Yue lived temporarily.

Qin Yue knew that the matter was of great importance, so he didn't dare to be careless, and he didn't dare to make up his own mind to follow up with the steward. Instead, he quietly went back to Rongguo Mansion and told Jia Daishan everything.

At the end, Qin Yue said: "My lord, because my subordinates know the strength of the Zhongshun Palace, it cannot be monitored by ordinary people. If it is exposed, it will be counterproductive. Therefore, my subordinates only observed at the intersection for a few days. Gu Ran was at the intersection. It is the only way from Yinlou to Prince Zhongshun's mansion, but several prince's mansions are built very close to each other, so it is not known whether the man in charge is going to another mansion. If we want to find out for sure, this subordinate will follow that person tomorrow."

After Jia Daishan learned the truth, he was also shocked.Of course, Tan Yue was shocked by the fact that King Zhongshun might have betrayed Emperor Jinghe, and Jia Daishan was shocked by Jia Lian's unparalleled wisdom, and this time he was most likely to be right again.But Jia Daishan didn't let Tan Yue continue to follow him, he only said: "I can't follow you any more in the near future, we will know if the enemy is dark, we just pretend we don't know about this matter."

Qin Yue should be.

Recognizing Jia Lian's extreme intelligence again, Jia Daishan will no longer treat Jia Lian as a child, and never hide anything from Jia Lian, treating Jia Lian as if he were a counselor.As a result of Qin Yue's investigation this time, Jia Daishan was also going to ask Jia Lian for his opinion.

This day, Jia Daishan listened to Qin Yue's report in the small study, came out of the small study, and sent someone to pick up Jia Lian as usual, and the grandparents and grandchildren went to the martial arts arena.After arriving at the martial arts arena, Jia Daishan told Jia Lian the news from Qin Yue as usual.

Jia Lian heard that Qin Yue saw that the officials of Zhongshun Prince's Mansion often passed the intersection between Longsheng Silver House and Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, so he was not surprised.After pondering for a while, he said, "No matter whether the person behind the scenes is King Zhongshun or another prince, if it were me, I would not let my informant go back to the palace directly after leaving the Longsheng Silver Building."

"What does Lian'er mean?" Jia Daishan asked.

"If I contact foreign officials such as Longsheng Yinlou and Wang Ziteng, and there are several Prince's Mansions near me, I will try to get people from several Prince's Mansions to have frequent contacts with Longsheng Yinlou, then even if someone checks, they will find out Several prince's mansions, rather than directly determining which one, the muddy the water, the better. Several prince's mansions live close together, and the managers must often come and go. They meet to go to a certain silver house or cloth village. It's a common thing, why would Mr. Tan see only one steward passing by that intersection frequently? The water is so clear that you can see that there is only one fish in the water, as if waiting for someone to catch it." Jia Lian looked up at Jia Daishan.

Jia Daishan understood as soon as he heard this, and then Jia Lian added: "If I want to divert misfortune to the east, and let the secret investigators find other palaces, I will only send one person with obvious characteristics as bait. Although it has been disguised, it is best for people to recognize it as a secret agent at a glance; and after this person comes out of the hidden stake of contact, he will go to a place I want the other party to see. In this way, the person who secretly investigates me will find me Go to another house, let them fight against each other, and I will escape from my shell."

"If I don't know if anyone is chasing me, but I just suspect that I am being targeted. Then I throw a bait to mislead the person chasing me to another person. Not only can I kill people with a knife, but I can also catch cicadas dignifiedly, The oriole is behind and draws out my pursuers so that I know myself and my enemy and win a hundred battles. This is leading a snake out of its hole. This plan kills two birds with one stone, but I am unscathed," Jia Lian said again.

After hearing this, Jia Daishan laughed.Both grandparents and grandchildren are smart people, so there is no need to say more.

So Jia Lian changed the subject and said: "Grandfather said that King Zhongshun has been running Qiming for many years, and his grandson still thinks that King Zhongshun's handwriting is the most likely to be able to arrange it so carefully. King Zhongshun has Qiming in his hand. We must not hit a stone with an egg and let Mr. Qin accept it." Informant, don't bother with Longsheng Teahouse anymore."

Jia Daishan still had some doubts because he didn't find out whose property the Longsheng Silver Building was. Only in this way can the emperor feel that the Ningrong Second House is targeting King Zhongshun, and then become suspicious of the crown prince.

Now Lian'er said that the person who promoted the inspection of the Guangdong Sea was most likely King Zhongshun, and Prince Teng obeyed King Zhongshun.So are there other forces involved in this muddy water?Who sent the person who assassinated King Zhongshun in Ningguo Mansion that day? "

Jia Lian tilted his head and thought for a while, then said very firmly: "My grandson guesses that Qing Se is a member of King Zhongshun!"

Jia Lian's words obviously exceeded Jia Dai's good intentions, so he thought about it: in ancient times, Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, but now there may not be King Zhongshun playing tricks, and Qingse may indeed be King Zhongshun.It's just that Qingse was captured alive that day before he made a move, so naturally this bitter trick would not work.But this is only one of the possibilities. Why is Jia Lian's tone so certain?

So Jia Daishan asked back, "Why is Lian'er so determined?"

Jia Lian said: "Lian'er carefully sorted out the matter of promoting the inspector censor to inspect Guangdong Hai, and found that it is not possible to succeed in mastering Guangdong Hai. More than four years ago, my grandfather was almost killed. If someone poisons someone, if that happens, the other party has already controlled Ping'an Prefecture; this time by patrolling Guangdong Hai to control Guangdong Hai, it is all to realize the shocking situation. If you succeed this time, you can do the same in the future and control it again. Several strategic locations, great achievements are just around the corner. That is to say, this layout started at least four years ago, and it may be even earlier.

The assassination of King Zhongshun in the Ningguo Mansion made the emperor suspect that the prince had a different heart, which was obviously an important part of the layout that had lasted for several years.Therefore, Lian'er felt that the attempted assassination of the Ningguo Mansion and the promotion of patrolling Guangdong and Hai must have been done by the same person.

In addition, there is the most important point. "

Jia Lian's words were both unbelievable and thoughtful, and Jia Daishan didn't wait for Jia Lian to finish speaking, he couldn't wait to ask: "What else?"

Jia Lian closed his eyes slightly, and the long eyelashes covered the expression in his eyes. After a short pause, Jia Lian continued in a clear and clear child's voice: "The most important thing is that that day when Lian'er bumped into Qing Se, Qing Se's hand The teacup on the table hadn't been opened yet, and the grandfather immediately realized that Qing Se possessed martial arts, and chased him out of the VIP room.

But the grandfather was delayed because he confessed his crime to all the distinguished guests present, and then bent down to carry Lian'er out.If Mother Fan hadn't seen that Qing Se was no ordinary girl and chased after her, she might have let Qing Se escape.But because of this, Mother Fan was injured when she blocked Qingse, and Mother Fan was injured by a sharp knife.But...Nurse Fan was not poisoned! "

There is still half a sentence that Jia Lian didn't say: Besides, according to the plot of the original book, King Zhongshun still didn't die because Jia Daishan and Nanny Fan didn't stop Qingse from assassinating him.

Hearing that Mother Fan was not poisoned, Jia Daishan's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood: even if it is a bitter trick, it is not convincing by just showing off. Must be hurt.Because there was blood to be seen, there was no poison on Qingse's dagger. Qingse didn't want to kill King Zhongshun at all!

Jia Zhen got married, the Ningguo Mansion was heavily guarded, and Qingse had no one to help him inside the Ningguo Mansion, and no one to respond to him outside. A normal assassination must have a heart of death, and naturally he must use all means.Feeding poison to the murder weapon, poisoning food and drink, or even a two-pronged approach, is a hundred times stronger than using a dagger that has only one disease and has not been poisoned!

Why did Qingse give up the easy and seek the difficult, trying to kill with a dagger?After Jia Lian's analysis, the assassination incident that was originally covered in clouds and mountains became clear in Jia Daishan's mind.

But knowing that the person who has been planning for several years is King Zhongshun, Jia Daishan is not at all relaxed. If it weren't for Jia Lian, it would be difficult for him to be suspicious of King Zhongshun, let alone Emperor Jinghe.Back then, King Zhongshun blocked the knife for Emperor Jinghe.With Jing and Di's trust, King Zhongshun can do everything with half the effort.

In fact, Jia Daishan still has some doubts. The heirs of King Zhongshun are mediocre in intelligence and not good enough to take on great responsibilities. If they are ordinary idle princes, that's all.If he overestimated his strength and sat on the dragon chair, he might end up with a bad end. Even if King Zhongshun succeeded, to whom would he pass the throne to in the future?

But Jia Daishan didn't express his doubts. It doesn't matter what King Zhongshun thinks, what matters is how he does it.Perhaps power is alluring. It is normal for the Wang family and historians to be unwilling to be under the Jia family, and for King Zhongshun to be unwilling to be under Jinghedi.

The top priority is to stabilize the situation in Guangdong.As for Yuehai, in addition to the supervisory censor Chu Liang, Wang Ziteng, Shi Ding, and Jiang Dahu who went there, there must be Qiming sending news back.As Jia Lian said, if the news from Jiang Dahu conflicts with Qiming's news, Emperor Jinghe must not trust King Zhongshun credulously.

Seeing Jia Daishan lost in thought, Jia Lian shook Jia Daishan's sleeve and said, "Grandfather? What are you thinking about?"

Jia Daishan came back to his senses, smiled at Jia Lian, and said, "Grandfather is thinking, what Lian'er said is reasonable. It's just that grandfather and King Zhongshun had worked together in the past, and King Zhongshun was indeed unique in spying on information and military aircraft. The layout lasted for several years, and this layout may even last for several years before the net can be closed. Based on my understanding of King Zhongshun, he does not have such ability and patience. King Zhongshun must be surrounded by experts."

Jia Lian thought for a while and said: "This is bad. No matter how well a person hides his ability, there are occasional times when people see the clues. If King Zhongshun is handsome and even has the air of a king, I'm afraid the emperor will still Take precautions against him. If King Zhongshun didn't possess such talents, the emperor would not be suspicious of him, so who would guard against a person who is not a big threat?"

Jia Daishan pondered for a while, and said, "That's not necessarily the case, as a king, he will always have more points and be wary than ordinary people."

Jia Lian thought about it and felt that Jia Daishan's words were justified.Both he and Jia Daishan are soldiers, but Jia Daishan, as Emperor Jinghe's confidant, is closer to the center of power, and he obviously understands the emperor's mind better.As for Jia Lian himself, he used to be a special soldier, and he was more entangled with some criminals. Jia Lian obviously didn't understand the thoughts of politicians and politicians in the center of power as well as Jia Daishan.If it hadn't been for the fact that he had watched Dream of the Red Chamber five times, Jia Lian would have been far less able to handle the current situation than Jia Daishan.

"Grandfather, how about sending Mr. Qin to other provinces temporarily? If Mr. Qin needs to stay in the capital, grandfather can also send someone he trusts." Jia Lian said kindly to Jia Dai.

After Jia Daishan thought about it for a while, he knew Jia Lian's intentions: Although King Zhongshun was in charge of Qiming, for the sake of safety, he would not use Qiming as his intelligence network unless necessary.So what is King Zhongshun's own intelligence network?In order to avoid alarming others, the Longsheng Silver House in the capital is not easy to check, but you can check whether the Longsheng Silver House has a branch in other provinces, and other jewelers who have business dealings with the Longsheng Silver House can also check.Go to other provinces to follow the vines and follow the vines, and there may be unexpected gains.

Jia Dai said with a smile, "Lian'er's plan is very clever."

Although Jia Daishan didn't have Qiming who was in charge of a huge organization, he had led the army for many years, so he naturally had some people he could use.In order not to attract King Zhongshun's attention, Jia Daishan simply sent Qin Yue to Lianghu.The two lakes are located in the north of Guangdong Sea and south of the capital, which is the hinterland of the dynasty.If King Zhongshun really has the heart of disobedience, he must have plans in the two lakes.Right now, King Zhongshun's focus will definitely be on Yuehai and the capital city. If the two lakes are neglected to take precautions, maybe Qin Yue can find out something.

And Zhongshun Palace has not been idle these days.

A few days later, the spies arranged by King Zhongshun from Qinghui Inn to the second prince's mansion reported back one after another, and no suspicious person was found following Duan Da.

Duan Da is one of the stewards of the second prince Situjie's mansion, and naturally he is also a chess piece laid by King Zhongshun many years ago, but Duan Da doesn't know that his master is King Zhongshun, he only knows that he obeys Hu Shanren who helped him before.

Hu Shanren hadn't contacted Duan Da for a long time, and he was asked to go to Longsheng Silver House every day to pick up a bag of things.Sure enough, Duan Da went there every day, and what he got back was only a bag of silver locks. Duan Da didn't know what Hu Shanren's intention was, so he just kept all the silver locks.

Duan Da has learned martial arts, and he is sharper than ordinary people. He also found out that from the Longsheng Silver Building, after passing the Qinghui Inn, and before returning to the palace, the shopkeepers, passers-by, and beggars on the street all looked too sharply. Apart from staring at him, she didn't touch him.After seven days in a row, on the seventh day, the shopkeeper of Longsheng Silver House handed Duan Da a bag of silver ladles, and then said that Hu Shanren asked him to tell Duan Da that he would not come tomorrow.

On the way back to the palace, Duan Da also found that the eyes of all kinds of people along the way were not so sharp.

In King Zhongshun's study, Mr. Lu still waved his feather fan to greet King Zhongshun.

Zhongshun Wang said: "It seems that Mr. Lu overestimated Jia Daishan. Duan Da went to and from the Second Prince's Mansion and Longsheng Yinlou for seven days in a row, and was not followed by anyone. Presumably, Jia Daishan only vaguely knew that someone was going to attack Dou Chong, but he was not suspicious. To Wang Ziteng."

Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "My lord, my subordinates thought that no matter how careless Jia Daishan was, it was impossible for Wang Ziteng to be suspicious of Wang Ziteng after the Erchao Hui appointed Wang Ziteng to escort Chu Liang to the south. As for no one following Duan Da, the Dachao Hui A few days ago, we cut off contact with Wang Ziteng, Jia Daishan probably didn't suspect Wang Ziteng before the great court meeting, so he didn't find out about the Longsheng Bank."

King Zhongshun listened, nodded and said: "This king has worked with Jia Daishan for a long time. Jia Daishan has his own skills in fighting and fighting, and often makes the enemy's army fearful. It's a pity that Situ Jie escaped the master's ingenious plan of leading a snake out of a hole and killing someone with a knife."

It turned out that Jia Daishan and Jia Lian's analysis was not bad at all. Mr. Lu and Zhongshun Wang's plan was just a trick to lure the troubles to the east.

If something happened to the crown prince, Situ Jie would be the eldest among all the princes. According to the order of seniority, there must be civil and military ministers who support Situ Jie.Situ Jie naturally had enough reasons to plot against the prince, so King Zhongshun was happy to use Situ Jie as a cover.

It's a pity that this time the murder with a knife was not successful, and King Zhongshun was very regretful.He didn't expect Jia Daishan's knife to be blunt than he imagined.
