Chapter 61

Encountered on the road

Zhao Yunan's idea was good, but he didn't know that the Cheng Gun and Wade had already been incompatible with each other because of filming, so he didn't need to take care of it. Even to say one more thing, since the official family put the two of them into the imperial envoy team, the conflicts in the team had been planted.

But Zhao Yunan didn't know these inside stories and was not very human and worldly, so he couldn't see through them. If it were a veteran like Cao Qiaomu, or Tan Zong, who was used to being influenced, he would probably be able to see the connection inside at a glance.

Just like Zhao Yunan, the Prince Xiaoyao in the capital, thought that the court was still harmonious.

After the two of them fell silent, Zhao Yunan continued: "Mr. Wei, how do you plan to check the account book?"

Seeing Zhao Yunan's question so directly, Wade felt a little unbearable. It seemed that when the errands came to the capital to handle cases, unless the officials made heavy remarks, there have been some conventions since ancient times, that are nothing more than to first raise feelings and then communicate, and finally, everyone, I am everyone.

But now the headquarters had just moved into the city, and Zhao Yunan asked about the investigation of the case directly. Wade had no idea about it for a while. What's more, as Cheng Zhaoweng said, he came here this time, so how could he think about the relationship between it?

As for Jiang Wu, according to what Wang Cifu thought before leaving, the prince was used to being free in the capital, so how could he understand the account book? Even if there were some outsiders among the accompanying staff, he was the one who was in charge of the affairs, so in the end, the heavy responsibility still had to fall on him.

No matter how bad the tent of the Nanjing Prefecture River Embankment was, he would have to be safe. Moreover, since the official has ordered the generals who came to Wade, and based on the brains of Wang Cifu's subordinates, isn't this a sign that the official is unwilling to go into it. What's more, Wang Ren had already come to write letters, saying that the tent was extremely beautiful and was not afraid of people checking it out.

But when Zhao Yunan asked so suddenly, Wade was a little stunned when he came. It was obvious that he did not play according to the rules of the cards.

Wadelai felt that the Xiaoyao Prince seemed different from the previous ones in the capital, and he was a little confused about Zhao Yun'an's veins. However, since he was asked, Wadelai had to calm down and said calmly: "In the afternoon, the officials have sent someone to the government office to inform the governor of the Wang family. They said that they would sort out the river bank of the past few days in the past few days. Jieshi sent someone to inform him, and we will go over and investigate in detail."

"Oh? It's so time-consuming?" Zhao Yunan couldn't help but frown slightly.

A few days ago, when he saw the account book that Tan Zong mentioned, Zhao Yunan also said that this was the river bank of Nanjing Prefecture, but he did not think about anything else. After hearing Wade's words, he remembered that the jurisdiction of Nanjing Prefecture was very large. In this huge place, the river bank of the year was not something that could be remembered by a book.

Sure enough, Wade immediately responded: "It's so time-consuming. As far as I'm concerned about Nanjing City, there are probably more than a dozen books in the past two years, and there are also the accounts of Hangzhou and Suzhou in previous years. If all of them are calculated, there are probably dozens of books. If so many accounts are checked in detail, I'm afraid they can't finish reading them within a few days. What's more..."

Seeing Wade speak hesitantly, he saw that he was looking straight at Cheng Jue Weng, Zhao Yunan was a little displeased and said, "If you have something to say, don't act like this."

Wade immediately said after hearing this: "What's more, Lord Cheng must check the authenticity of the river embankments of the two prefectures, and the time must be compared with the account books. If you want to investigate this matter in detail, it will take longer."

"Oh?" Zhao Yunan narrowed his eyes slightly, and he couldn't help but think of Tan Zong, the tricks that Tan Zong had mentioned, and then he thought of the news that Tan Zong and Su Jin had handed over separately earlier. He woke up immediately and knew that he had almost forgotten the big thing.

"Since that's the case, then Master Cheng will have a good rest today. I have been away in Jiangnan these days. The river embankment in Nanjing Prefecture has been well built, but I am not as good as you, an expert. I want to verify the authenticity, Master Cheng still needs to work harder."

Zhao Yunan said these words like praise and criticism, and he was confused. He didn't know what Jiang Wu meant, but he couldn't ask, so he could only keep this in his heart and planned to go back to his room and think about it later.

But before he could do anything, Zhao Yunan came to Wade and said, "Since Lord Wei has time at this time, why not go out for a walk. I heard that there is a pair of good new officials in Cuiyun Pavilion today, so we are going to have fun, but it's just the right time to go there now."

Wade was overjoyed when Zhao Yunan said this, and his eyes swept over Cheng Guai, whose face had turned pale, with even more pride: "I heard that the prince is one of the masters in the capital, and Delai wanted to ask the prince for advice."

Seeing Wade say this, Zhao Yunan couldn't help laughing, and the smile on his face was visible.

When Wade came and walked out of the yard with Zhao Yunan, Cheng Gaoweng finally couldn't help but feel angry. He snorted coldly and then left the room. When he left the room, he saw a slightly familiar figure flashing across the corner of the wall. Cheng Gaoweng knew that this person was Wadelai's confidant and that he must have been sent to monitor him at this time. He was immediately angry.

However, Cheng Zhaoweng has always been accustomed to being arrogant. Although his position in the Ministry of Works is not low, he has no capable personnel. Even the members in the headquarters are close to him. The fault is that he has a high position, otherwise he may not be able to instruct these people.

But at this moment, this matter involves his own face, so he naturally couldn't find those lazy people, so he had to be depressed and sulked back to his room.

After leaving the headquarters, he met Yue Feiyun who had been guarding the outside. Zhao Yunan gave a little order, and the two carriages set off on the road.

The third son of Hu was poisoned and needed to be raised. The old general was worried about the safety of the prince Zhao Yunan, so he sent Yue Feiyun and a group of personal guards to guard. Although Zhao Yunan revealed his identity at this time, he was used to the light car and simple followers, and was worried about the safety of the old general himself. Therefore, he only had Yue Feiyun and the ten personal guards, but the others were rejected by him.

Zhao Yunan has heard of it. Since the Blood Flag Army retreated to defend the Central Plains and Jiangnan, the assassins of foreign tribes in the north have never stopped, so the safety of the old general is naturally unacceptable.

After walking halfway, the convoy stopped.

Zhao Yunan didn't know what was happening outside, so he frowned and opened the car door and asked Yue Feiyun outside the car, "Feiyun, what happened? Why did the car stop?"

At this time, Yue Feiyun even had half of the sword in his waist and was carefully scanning the surroundings. When he heard Zhao Yunan's question, he turned his head and reported, "Prince, the outpost sent a message saying that a carriage in front was broken in the middle of the road. My subordinates were worried about the prince's safety, so he decided to stop the convoy. The prince didn't have to worry, and his subordinates would naturally deal with it carefully and would definitely not let the assassin approach the prince. However, it would be better for the prince to close the car door to prevent the assassin from having crossbow arrows."

Unlike ordinary swords, crossbows and arrows are controlled by Dashunchao, but they cannot prevent the assassins of foreigners from getting it through various means. Therefore, Yue Feiyun's worries are not redundant.

Zhao Yunan knew that Yue Feiyun was probably too many times when the old general met assassin, and he saw that everything was related to the assassin, so he was not very displeased. However, it was still not too early at this moment, and he spent some time at this moment, and he might have to miss the opportunity. Therefore, Zhao Yunan said, "Go and ask the car owner's identity. If possible, let those people give us a chance to wait for the time being."

Yue Feiyun wanted to say a few more words, but because he had first contact with Zhao Yunan, he didn't know Zhao Yunan's temperament, so he didn't have much to say, so he had to accept it and ask his men to do it.

"The prince's body is important. General Yue is a cautious person. It seems that the garrisons in our Dashun Dynasty are all amazing and powerful troops." Wade, who had been in the carriage behind, came afterwards, but he did not know when. He did not know Yue Feiyun's identity. He saw that this man led some soldiers to protect Zhao Yunan's safety earlier, and heard Zhao Yunan say that General Yue was the leader of the local ordinary garrison.

Zhao Yunan would never reveal the secrets inside, nor would he cater to Wade's words, so he answered with a vague "gratitude".

Wade naturally would not be annoyed Zhao Yunan's attitude. Instead, he said to Yue Feiyun with a smile: "General Yue, the safety of the prince is all on the general."

What kind of person is Yue Feiyun? He came out of the sea of ​​blood. This time he only came to do this after receiving the military order of General Zhao. Otherwise, even if he was shocked by Zhao Yunan's identity, he would take him back to the Blood Flag Army camp, how could he leave the old general and serve as a guard?

Seeing Wade coming over without any tact, Yue Feiyun naturally would not give this guy any good face, but just snorted coldly: "I will naturally protect the safety of the prince. Even if there are 180 people, I will not be afraid. But this adult is still worried about his own good. Be careful of an assassin in the dark, and he may have crossbow arrows to shoot him."

"Uh..." Wadelai was choked by Yue Feiyun's words. However, seeing that Zhao Yunan did not speak, he could not touch General Yue's background for a while, so he had to go back to the carriage in disappointment.

But as soon as Wade got on the car, he waited for the escort to close the car door. Wadelai immediately whispered: "Find an opportunity to find an opportunity to find out the bottom with those military detectives and touch the bottom of this surname Yue."

The attendant immediately responded in a low voice.

"I want to see which immortal this person is. He is so ignorant that he even dares to offend the Minister of Revenue. Are you not afraid that I will stifle his food and salary?" Wadelai narrowed his eyes slightly, but an unpredictable smile appeared on his face.

"Hmph, a guy who doesn't know how high the sky is." Yue Feiyun, who was not far away, had one ear on one side, and then he sneered at the corner of his mouth disdainfully.

After a while, a forefront came back and reported to the news: "Sir, there are three women in the car, which seem to be the wives and concubines of Tan Zong, Yayuan, this year's Nanjing Prefecture Country Examination, called Su Jin, Qinghe, and Lianxiang. They are now from Cuiyun Pavilion, and they don't want the carriage to walk here and the axle is broken."
