Chapter 123 Unexpected Disaster
The spies of Dayan lurking in the capital would never have imagined that they would face such an unexpected disaster.
Everything had been going fine, and everything was going according to the plan assigned by their superiors. They were doing their job in an orderly manner. However, without any warning, their lair was raided by the patrol camp.
Moreover, every copy was accurate, without any mistakes or omissions.
It was only then that they realized that all their efforts over the years were in vain. The people of Dachen had already seen through them.
With the tacit approval of Emperor Chengtian, Zhang Quanhe and Xiong Deyi reshuffled the entire secret structure of the capital with lightning speed.
You know what, they actually found some clues.
Among the eleven people detained by Jingzhao Prefecture, there were indeed two spies who had just come from Dayan. However, before they could connect with the people who were originally lurking in the capital, something went wrong.
In this way, the blame was finally put on Dayan's head.
After receiving the report, Emperor Chengtian clenched his fist, tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again, over and over again. Eunuch Guo who was watching from the side was also very nervous.
Since His Majesty took power, he has encountered obstacles everywhere, which is already very difficult. He has seen all of this.
I didn't expect that my own affairs are still not in order, and this Dayan wants to interfere.
"What do you think Dayan is up to?!"
In the imperial study, there were only Emperor Chengtian and Eunuch Guo.
There is no need to ask this question, it must be asked to Eunuch Guo.
Eunuch Guo turned the words around in his mouth for a few more times before saying, "I am stupid and can't guess what Dayan's intention is."
His attitude was respectful and his body was bent very low.
Emperor Chengtian glanced at Eunuch Guo and said, "I'm afraid it's because of Yicheng."
Some people think that if they have something for three years, it becomes theirs.
I totally don't understand the term "returning the property to its original owner".
"Your Majesty is wise."
There are some things that a slave can think of, but must never say out loud.
If the same words were spoken by His Majesty the Emperor, it would be wise, but if they were spoken by a servant, it would be an act of usurpation.
"Old thing!" Emperor Chengtian scolded.
He then returned to the imperial desk and picked up his pen to write.
Eunuch Guo walked forward and started grinding ink with great familiarity.
In less than an incense stick of time, Emperor Chengtian handed the written secret order to Eunuch Guo and said, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. Send a message to Dayan and ask our spies to do the same thing. Do it cleanly and don't let anyone show their hand."
"I obey your order." After saying that, Eunuch Guo went out with the secret order written by Emperor Chengtian.
Emperor Chengtian was only half leaning on the dragon throne at this time, and he looked extremely tired.
It is so difficult to be an emperor, and it is so difficult to sit on the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, Empress Xian requests an audience." The eunuch's voice came from outside the door.
When Emperor Chengtian heard this, a gentle face with tears in her eyes appeared in his mind.
''not see!''
It's so annoying, who wants to face a depressed face?
After receiving the instructions, the young eunuch did not dare to stay any longer and turned around to report.
Time is the best thing to heal everything.
Things that seem very difficult at the moment will gradually be smoothed over and forgotten or replaced by new things after a period of time.
In just half a month, the Hundred People Incident that had previously caused a sensation in the city was replaced by the massacre of the entire family of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Before, people were keen on discussing how those naked adults were embarrassing, but later they turned to discussing how the Honglu Temple Minister and his family died tragically.
It was said that the murderer was extremely vicious and did not spare any of the family members, including the servants and maids. He even did not spare the family dog.
The murderer ransacked the house and all valuables were gone.
In short, those who hear it are sad and those who see it cry.
Then some rumors that came from nowhere gradually spread.
It is said that the previous incident of a hundred people was committed by the collusion between Min Zhicai, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, and the spies of Dayan.
The reason was that he was dissatisfied with the fact that Yicheng was taken back by the young general of the General's Mansion.
When they can't win on the battlefield, they start using dirty tricks.
Not only did he send spies to Dachen, he also bribed the Minister of the Honglu Temple to collude with insiders and outsiders to commit the Hundred People Incident, and also burned down the general's manor in the suburbs of Beijing.
This is naked revenge.
Destroy all the pillars of the court so that Dachen will be seriously injured and unable to launch military action against foreign countries in the short term.
Min Zhicai's family was slaughtered because they deserved it. It was those Yan spies who did it.
Those who try to get the skin of a tiger will have no good ending. They deserve it.
When Song Qingci heard Yin Xing telling her these things in the general's mansion, she felt a helpless sense of fate in her heart.
The villains are really well hidden.
Originally, she was thinking of waiting until the storm had passed before visiting the home of Lord Min, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
I didn't expect that this Third Master would act so quickly and decisively.
Lord Min must be someone he trusts very much and uses very well. Otherwise, he wouldn't let him contact the secret cave. But when he said he would abandon him, he really showed no mercy at all.
The whole family was wiped out. Wow, how cruel.
The Hundred People Incident was personally handled by Song Qingci, so how could she believe in words like the spies from Dayan?
However, she did not expect things to develop in this direction.
It's just that the Third Master had a good timing in abandoning Min Zhicai. By putting the blame on Dayan for his death, he could get away with it and continue to hide.
Cruel and smart.
"Madam, are you listening to me?" Yin Xing felt that the young lady was not listening to her at all.
Song Qingci slapped away Yin Xing's hand that was waving in front of him, "I'm listening."
''real?!''
"Of course it's true. You were just talking about the murder of the family of Lord Min, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites." "This Yin Xing is really getting bolder and bolder. He even dared to question her.
"Yes, yes. Madam, you don't know, that scene was really tragic." Yin Xing felt a chill on her back as she spoke.
"You saw it with your own eyes?!"
When Song Qingci looked at her, it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes, but also as if he had bought a VIP ticket to see it.
"That's not the case," Yin Xing bit her nails, "I heard it from someone. The whole capital is talking about it now. It's even more heated than the discussion about those naked adults a few days ago."
"'People from our general's mansion also participated in the discussion? ! ''
Feeling that Song Qingci's expression was not right, Yin Xing quickly said, "No, no, none of the servants in our house dared to do that."
