Chapter 527: Thoughts

The smile on Shen Hao's face quickly disappeared as he read the letter. He never thought that Yang Lin would have such a thing in his hand.

"My lord, isn't this letter complete? But there's more to come?"

He knew it was a little out of place to ask in such a hurry, but Shen Hao couldn't care less. Yang Lincoln took it out, which was to show his attitude. With the previous foreshadowing, he had reason to believe that this was Yang Lin's show of favor. Purpose? Didn't you say you want to form a bond with Xuan Qingwei? Maybe this is a meeting ceremony? Or is it a nomination certificate?

Yang Lin shook his head, and said with some irrelevant answers: "You should know what I want, right?"

"My lord, please make it clear. I'm worried that if you don't figure it out accurately, you will miss a big deal." Shen Hao also had to put away his luck. It seems that Yang Lin will not take out the latter part of the letter easily. But he didn't want to guess what the other party wanted, even if he could guess right, he wouldn't guess.

It has to be said to be safe.

"I said so much just now, but I mean the same thing. I don't want to, and I can't be labeled as a "hidden fugitive", let alone have a stake in this case. Therefore, I need you, Xuan Qingwei, and I to be able to communicate with each other. Be considerate of the Major Case Division of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, maybe it will make them suffer for breaking their trust?"

"My lord, please explain in detail."

When Shen Hao came out of the teahouse, he happened to meet a carriage with a red sedan and stopped at the door. A woman in a long black dress got out of the carriage, and the two passed by. But Shen Hao paused, muttering in his heart that the woman's aura made him feel a little familiar.

"Who is that person?"

"My lord, that person should be a luthier who came here to perform. I'll ask you now." Although Wang Yiming saw the woman with a servant with a musical instrument behind her, Wang Yiming still didn't know her face well.

Wang Yiming hadn't been in the imperial city for a long time, and he was not familiar with Lechi Teahouse, and he didn't know much about the luthier, so when Shen Hao asked, he turned around and went to the teahouse to find out the situation. And Shen Hao was sitting in the carriage waiting for the news.

Not long after, Wang Yiming came back and replied: "My lord, I asked clearly. The woman just now is called Fu Ji, and she is a well-known luthier in the imperial city. I have heard of her name before, but I have never seen her before." people."

Bound concubine? !

Shen Hao froze for a moment, waved his hand to indicate that Wang Yiming could go, and then the carriage drove away.

It's no wonder that the aura on the other party's body is somewhat familiar, and it turns out that this is Fu Ji, Shen Hao's long-known great luthier? Lianxiang and Ning Ziyi's master? A sound repairer with advanced cultivation?

What Shen Hao didn't know was that he was lamenting that he happened to meet Fu Ji in the carriage, and the other party was also lamenting that he would meet him at this place. In addition, unlike Shen Hao, although Fu Ji had never seen Shen Hao before, she recognized him at a glance.

"This person should be investigating important cases in the imperial city, why did he come to the teahouse?"

No one knows Fu Ji's exact age, some say fifty or sixty, some say one hundred or more. But just looking at her appearance, she is more than forty, mature and charming, with restrained charm, and she has the aura of everyone on her body.

As soon as she was puzzled, Fu Ji saw a person coming out of the teahouse, and hurriedly saluted with a smile, but the other person glanced at her, nodded slightly, did not stop, and went out to leave.

"Shou Wang? Did that man come here to meet Shou Wang?"

At the beginning of the Hai Dynasty, Shen Hao did not return to the military dormitory arranged for him by the Fushi Yamen of Jingxi Town all the way, but turned to find Jiang Cheng's mansion.

Although it was a bit late, it was not late at night, the housekeeper of Jiang Cheng's house quickly led Shen Hao into the study room at home, and just after tea was served, he saw Jiang Cheng walking in in ordinary clothes.

"grown ups."

"What's so urgent?" Jiang Cheng didn't greet Shen Hao politely, he knew that his disciple was very measured, and he wouldn't come here so suddenly at night if he was less than 100,000 urgent.

"My lord, this subordinate just finished drinking tea with King Shou, chatted for a while, and came directly to you after coming out."

Jiang Cheng knew that Shen Hao had an appointment with King Shou tonight, and Shen Hao told him about it in the afternoon, and he even read that post. I thought that even if something happened, Shen Hao would only report it tomorrow when he was on business.

"What did King Shou say?"

"He said he wanted to form a good relationship with us Xuanqingwei. He showed a little sincerity, please read it." Shen Hao skipped the foreshadowing made by King Shou, and went directly to the letter written by Qin Xiuyuan to Qin Wenhe .

Jiang Cheng took a few glances over it, and with the same reaction as Shen Hao before, he was silent for a moment before saying: "He is bargaining."

"Yes, my lord, this part is sweetness, and the rest depends on the price we give."

"Are you saying that what King Shou asked is really what he said?"

"My lord, to put it bluntly, Shou Wang has been forced to the wall and can't get off. The only way for him to get out of the trap is to pull us."

"Anti-customer-oriented?"

"Yes, my lord. That's what King Shou meant. But the subordinates think that his confidence should come from the latter part of this letter."

Jiang Cheng put down half of the letter in his hand, leaned on the back of the chair and rubbed the center of his brows, and said after a while: "Shou Wang has always had a reputation among the seven princes, and he has a reputation for being domineering and arrogant. Now it seems that we have to add A "bold audacity" is right. Tell me what you think."

"My lord, my subordinates have no opinion, and everything is up to your arrangement." Before Shen Hao came to Jiang Cheng's mansion, he thought a lot along the way, and he understood what King Shou's request meant to Xuan Qingwei. There are benefits, but there are also many things that need to be carefully considered. After all, there are gains and losses, and the price paid needs to be carefully weighed.

As the saying goes: How dare a cowherd boy be in charge?

Shen Hao is a mere deputy of a thousand households, and it is not suitable for him to speak on this kind of matter, he just listens to the arrangement.

Jiang Cheng was dissatisfied with Shen Hao's perfunctory, and snorted: "This is my study room, not a private room. You are my student, are you afraid that I will keep you accountable? Tell me!"

Shen Hao smiled, but didn't insist anymore, and said: "My lord, if we agree to King Shou, we will definitely tear ourselves apart from the civil servants. What kind of consequences will be caused by my shallow knowledge. But if you refuse King Shou, It is very likely that we will lose one thing to attack the civil society, and we will completely turn against King Shou, maybe it is inevitable to be hated."

After hearing this, Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "Are you analyzing this? Don't you mean the same thing? You want us to agree to form a so-called good relationship with King Shou?" Before Shen Hao could answer, Jiang Cheng gave the answer : "There are too many sensitive things in it, and Shou Wang's actions are tricky enough. It's hard to judge.

What if the rest of this letter doesn't carry enough weight? Being cheated will kill a lot of people, have you ever thought about it? "

"My lord, if we only talk about this letter, this subordinate has something to say. This subordinate thinks that although this letter is incomplete, it reveals the panic and tension in Qin Xiuyuan's heart. But he didn't ask Qin Wenhe for help or The meaning of begging for mercy is to narrate in a strange tone."

"Strange tone?"

"Yes my lord, it's like a revelation"
