Chapter 177 Embedding the Thread

Wu Du—Dou—

There were two more drums in the alley in Jingzuo. A team of patrol guards walked on the empty street. The cowhide boots stepped on the bluestone slabs and made a "click" sound, and the lanterns swaying candlelight were written with the words "Bianmasi".

A slight horse hooves accompanied by the sound of wheels in a hurry came from far to near.

The guards of the patrol went away after a sound. When they turned the corner, they saw a gray two-wheeled carriage coming towards them.

"Live here! Who?"

The carriage stopped slowly, and the driver took out a post from his arms.

The leading guard came forward with a lantern and picked up the post. After glanced at him, he immediately handed it back with a smile and said:

"It turned out that it was Cheng'en Hou Shizi's mansion to get on the car," he turned his eyes on the car without any decorations, "but he didn't know who was in the car? Where was he going at this time? What did he do?"

The coachman couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak, the dark green curtain behind him moved slightly, and a slender hand tucked the curtain.

The cold moonlight reflects Rong Qian's face.

"Criminal!"

The five cities and military officials often interacted with the guards of the capital, and the leading guards had met Rong Qian.

He bowed and laughed:

"Don't be surprised, your responsibility is... You also know that something happened a while ago. Isn't it so serious that my superiors have been arrested recently?" He said, and hurriedly waved his hand to greet him, "Get out of the way, don't block the way!"

The carriage slowly drove.

Rong Qian put down the curtain, but heard a sharp voice in the car saying:

"What happened a while ago? Is the Bingmasi and the group are so nervous?"

Rong Qian raised his eyes.

A slightly fat man sat in front of him. The moonlight shook with the curtains, shining on the man's white face and beardless face. However, Tong An, who had been sent to collect mining taxes before.

"Something happened on the day of the Lantern Festival." Rong Qian said lightly.

Tong An laughed "giggled" - In this huge capital, how many people would not die on the day the curfew was lifted?

"What else is our family doing? They have the courage to check your car."

Rong Qian refused to say:

"Since you are injured and returned to Beijing to recuperate, it is best not to let someone run into the house except entering the palace."

Tong Anben collected taxes on Emperor Showa outside, and later received a letter from the north asking him to avoid Liaodong and not get involved. Tong An could not do so, so he had to use a bitter plan.

After returning to the capital, he received the grace of Emperor Showa and had been "restoring" in his private residence outside the imperial city for several days. If Bo Yuan had not insisted on meeting him to discuss matters tonight, Tong An had no intention of going out.

After all, it is easy to hit people during the day, and it is easy to encounter night patrols after curfew.

Tong An coughed twice and changed the topic.

"There's another thing," he touched his delicate hand, smiling with a little smugness, "The female official in the Queen's harem came yesterday and brought some wounded tonics. It seems that it should be the queen's hand."

Rong Qian knew who he was talking about.

Looking at Tong An's expression, I think that the female official was kept yesterday - both Yu and Tong An had no reason to refuse.

The queen was anxious... Rong Qian closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car for a while, and then said:

"If the twenty-four yamen is about to move, how many reliable people can you find?"

Tong An immediately sat up straight and stared at Rong Qian:

“You mean…?”

Rong Qian frowned slightly, and said with a little memory:

"When I came back to Fengting last time, Lord Mo gave him a list, all of whom were placed in the Six Ministry and the Three Divisions in recent years. I remember... there were almost no people from the Twenty-Four Yamen here?"

Tong An was shocked.

He knew that He Kun and Rong Qian had a good relationship, but he didn't expect that the two had such a deep friendship. He Kun even let Rong Qian know about this list.

However, he did not dare to show a strange look on his face, and just nodded and said:

"The twenty-four yamen belongs to the inner court. Who will be allowed to sit for those important seats depends on the emperor's intention?"

Emperor Showa was unsure of his happiness and anger. He might have been demoted to the Clothing Washing Bureau in the morning.

Tong An remembered the topic he had talked about before and said:

"Even if the queen has the heart, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with?"

Rong Qian said lightly:

/>

"It is naturally not easy to come forward directly, but if you borrow the emperor's hand, it would be another saying."

Tong An widened his eyes, as if he heard some big joke, but he couldn't laugh at all.

Does Chengen Hou Zi think that Emperor Showa and the Empress have a deep relationship?

What is the emperor's hand? Isn't it easy to say?

"Criminal Master, our Guan Emperor's temper may not be so easy to talk to over the years." Tong An said in a slight manner, "It would be fine if there are places like the Four Departments and Eight Bureaus that deal with the harems more often, but the twelve Prisons...especially the people in the Sili Prison and the Second Division of the Imperial Prison, the senior officials were personally appointed by the Emperor!"

Rong Qiandao:

"So the snake takes seven inches and needs to be in the Emperor's heart." He glanced at Tong An, "The Queen did not understand the emperor's thoughts before, but now with you, she will naturally understand."

Tong An was stunned and then smiled bitterly:

"Although we have been with us for many years, we dare not say that we can understand the thoughts of that person. The emperor always favored the most in the years. Feng Bao..."

Tong An gradually stopped his voice, looking at Rong Qian's quiet and quiet face, a look of surprise could not be hidden in his eyes.

Does Chengen Hou Zi think he can guess the holy heart?

Where did he get the confidence!

Tong An coughed and politely advised:

"Criminal, this matter is not a joke. If you make a mistake in one move, you will be troubled..."

A hint of impatient flashed in Rong Qian's eyes and disappeared very quickly.

Even if Emperor Showa had every intention, he could not escape his identity. First of all, he was an emperor, so he was destined that any decision he made would eventually fall on imperial power and government affairs.

He was too lazy to explain this principle to Tong An, and he still needed to do a lot of things here, which involved many parties, and it was not achieved overnight.

"There is no rush to the two places in Sili and Yuma. You should pay more attention to the remaining places and plan a personal selection list earlier." Rong Qian said, "No matter how many, it must be reliable."

A rootless person has a unstable mind and nature. He doesn't want to be with the inner demon but comes from his own side.

Fortunately, Tong An finally heard the impatient feeling in Rong Qian's voice, but he was tactful and stopped talking. He just secretly decided to enlighten Beidi - at least if something happened in the future, don't get him into trouble.

The carriage stopped slowly, and Pei Lin said outside the carriage:

"Master, I'm here."

Rong Qian turned his face to look at Tong An.

"Okay, after our family decides a candidate, I will send someone to Jinyin Building to deliver the news." Tong An said with a smile.

Rong Qian nodded, and Tong An said goodbye and got out of the car.

The carriage slowly drove again. Rong Qian rubbed his eyebrows, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car, and slowly exhaled.

When the carriage returned to Jing'anhu, the second update had passed.

As soon as Rong Qian got off the carriage, he saw Pei Lin rolling the horse whip with one hand and frowning at the entrance of the alley.

"Sa Mu?"

Rong Qian turned around and saw Sa Mu walking from afar, and then accelerated his pace to come to the front.

"How did you come back? Didn't you pass the curfew early?" Pei Lin said strangely, then he was stunned again, "...How could you dress up like this?"

Rong Qian's eyes fell and saw that Sa Mu was not wearing a dress, but wearing a delicate short brown body - it looked a bit similar to Qin Xiao's usual outfit.

When Samu heard this, he showed a hint of awkwardness on his face and felt a little aggrieved.
