Chapter 26: Hidden is the Six Kingdoms
Chapter 26 hides the six kingdoms
Zhao Huaizhong nodded in response to Jiang Yan's inquiry, and then said, "When will everyone come back?"
Jiang Ling shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know either.
"Then wait for everyone to come back." Zhao Huaizhong said goodbye and went straight out of the courtyard.
"Where did the gourd and vine leaves come from, what did he say?" The waitress who guided Zhao Huaizhong into the courtyard appeared not far from Jiang Yan.
"He planted it himself.
He also proposed a planting method called grafting. You have been following your master for a long time, do you think the grafting mentioned by the Prince of Qin is possible? "
Jiang Ling then repeated Zhao Huaizhong's explanation of grafting.
The corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and she said, "The hand slip left by Shennong's family clearly states that plants are alive. What does it look like when you connect different plants together, and how can it be successful?"
Jiang Ling pondered for a while, intending to wait for Master Mu Yangjing to come back and ask again.
…
"Is the news true?"
"We have sent people to investigate overnight, and saw that the members of Ye Yufu were cleaning up the village and taking everything away.
It can be determined that the traces of the Zongmen branch near Xianyang have been exposed, and the number of personnel has been beheaded by Ye Yufu. "
On the outskirts of Xianyang, in the wilderness, under a low hill, two people were whispering secretly.
"How did the Qin people find the hiding place of my eclipse sect, and what were the casualties in Ye Yufu?"
"The process is not clear, but from the point of view that none of our people escaped, and all were captured and killed, Ye Yufu is obviously a complete victory, and their casualties should not be high."
Another person asked: "How much impact will it have on us when the arrangement near Xianyang is cleared?"
"Re-send people here, and you will be able to re-establish contact with Xianyang City soon. It's not a big problem."
"Then let's start implementing it, and I will report other things to the suzerain."
The short conversation ended, and the two went away.
…
Xianyang, prime minister.
Lu Buwei also knew that Zhao Huaizhong went out of the city in person yesterday to destroy the hidden stronghold of the Food Sect.
Unlike the two eclipse sect spies who met in the wilderness, Lu Buwei had the right to view any files in Daqin.
He consulted the bamboo scrolls that were organized and filed in Ye Yufu.
The bamboo slips describe the details of the process of Zhao Huaizhong's tracking and eradication of the hidden villages of the Phantasma Sect.
"Born to be amazing..."
Lu Buwei finished looking at it, and handed the bamboo scroll to Wei Yang, the next guest.
Wei Yang saw the bamboo slips and was amazed, so he accused him of the crime:
"It seems that the minister's judgment on the prince was wrong last time. The prince is not only talented in practice, but also has a vision, which is very different from ordinary people."
Lu Buwei closed his eyes, and his voice was low:
"I've always had doubts about the Prince being able to return to Qin, and guessed that Prince Pingyuan, Zhao Sheng, was secretly making arrangements, otherwise the process of your return to Qin would not have been so smooth.
It seems that I was overthinking it, or that Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, including me, underestimated the prince. "
paused and said: "You and the prince have a deep friendship with Handan (harmonious) Dan rescue. You might as well replace my prime minister's house. Instead of walking more, it is also good for you."
"Promise!" Wei Yang readily agreed.
…
"Prince, Fan Qingzhou asked me to send a case file."
Zhao Huaizhong left the Xuangu Academy and came to Ye Yufu. Mu Qingkong also came to the main hall where he stayed in the palace.
This gentleman is wearing a light blue long gown today, with a narrow waist and wide sleeves, and a light gait.
The color of clothes that women often wear is not inconsistent with him, and it echoes his feminine temperament just right.
"But there has been a new progress in the eclipse teaching."
"Exactly."
Mu Qingkong whispered softly: "Yesterday, we captured the eclipse cleric, conducted interrogation, and got some news."
"The old woman explained that the reason why they hid near Xianyang was because they found a cave in the underground of the village, and relying on the aura in it, they could increase the speed of their practice and enhance the power of their spells.
The main reason is that they hid around Xianyang and wanted to spy on and destroy our Daqin. "
"They sacrificed the corpse of Zhu Yin in exchange for some special power, and refined something called Yin Yuan Dan, which is said to prolong life.
After seeing Zhuyin yesterday, Wei Chen also said that the eclipse teaching is to gain yin power, gain yin longevity in the human world, and prolong life. "
After hearing this, Zhao Huaizhong had roughly guessed what Mu Qingkong was going to say next:
"Prolonged life? You are trying to say that some powerful people in Xianyang City, but they don't want to die when they are old, they became the targets of the food phase teaching to use Yin Yuan Pill to win over transactions, and then use these people to achieve their goals, that is, Spying on and sabotaging my Daqin?"
Mu Qingkong nodded, talking to the prince would be easy.
"Do you know who in Xianyang City has had contact with the eclipse religion?"
"Still investigating."
Mu Qingkong said: "Fan Qingzhou specifically told me to ask, how far should this matter be investigated?"
Zhao Huaizhong looked at the women's clothing boss who was kneeling across the table and had a prosperous beauty: "Why didn't Fan Qingzhou ask himself?"
Mu Qingkong said: "He suddenly received an urgent report and rushed to deal with it, so he asked me to inquire."
Zhao Huaizhong smiled: "The urgent report is just a pretext. Fan Qingzhou asked you to ask me about my attitude on this matter because the follow-up of this matter may be very difficult!"
Mu Qingkong was stunned.
Fan Qingzhou asked him to send the case file, but he came over without thinking deeply.
Hearing Zhao Huaizhong's mention at this time, Mu Qingkong couldn't help thinking.
Investigating the secret transactions between Shi Xiangjiao and Xianyang, who may have betrayed the interests of Da Qin, and will inevitably find some people who are not low in status, and may even be involved in the royal family.
Because the higher the status, the more valuable to the eclipse religion, the more the target of their contact.
It is by no means an easy matter to deal with the powerful groups involved with these people.
Zhao Huaizhong thought for a moment: "Fan Qingzhou asked you to come, obviously because he has some words inconvenient to say. Well, he wanted to remind me to change the direction of the investigation, but he was afraid of disagreeing with me, so he asked you to be a tool to pass the complaint.
This is a layer apart, which can take care of my face. "
Mu Qingkong blinked his long and charming eyes, thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was really Fan Qingzhou's style, and he was suddenly unhappy.
He was simply a tool to spread the word, and he didn't see Fan Qingzhou's intentions at all before.
But Zhao Huaizhong could see through.
This made Mu Qingkong feel a little sad, feeling a malicious IQ crushed by Zhao Huaizhong and Fan Qingzhou at the same time, and fell into deep self-doubt.
"The eclipse sect is just a sect, how can you have the guts to oppose me, Daqin.
Are the Six Kingdoms hiding behind them? "
"It's nothing more than one of the two countries of Han and Zhao. My Daqin is at war with Zhao recently, and there is also friction with Han. Behind the support of sectarian forces to disturb my Daqin, this has happened many times in the past." Mu Qingkong said.
Zhao Huaizhong nodded slowly, his thoughts gradually became clear:
"Fan Qingzhou's plan is to not check who is involved in the eclipse religion in the city first, and instead focus on attacking the eclipse religion itself.
If the mountain gate of the food phase teaching can be eliminated in one fell swoop, how many people in the city are connected with them will become less important and can be rectified gradually.
This not only solves the problem, but also prevents the situation from being chaotic and difficult to control because of a thorough investigation of the interior of Daqin. It is equivalent to disintegrating from the side the country's plan to disrupt the Qin Dynasty behind the eclipse religion. "
"Go back and tell Fan Qingzhou, I agree with him."
Mu Qingkong hesitated, nodding like a marionette, and turned around quickly.
He was going to go back and beat Fan Qingzhou.
