Chapter 1049 1049: Take the initiative (Part 2) [Please vote for me]


Gu Chi hesitated and asked, "What's weird?"

"I just smelled the fragrance that Shaoxuan usually used." Shen Tang said and sniffed again, carefully identifying the smell and its source. Confirming that he had not smelled it wrong, "I remember that the incense was specially customized by Yaohe for Shaoxuan, and it is the only one in Kangguo."

Shen Zhi has a very good relationship with Bai Su.

How good is it?

It was so good that there were rumors among the people that the two had a habit of grinding mirrors and had a close personal relationship. When this incident first broke out, it even alarmed the Yushitai. The censor visited the two of them in the early court, hoping that they would pay attention to the scale of their interactions and not smear the image of Kang Guo's officials.

Although men and women are not allowed to coexist among the people, Kang's post-war policies support male and female fertility and encourage widows to remarry or recruit children. When women give birth to women, both men and women can receive ten pounds of sugar, six pounds of meat, and three pieces of cloth from the government. , if the child dies in infancy, half of it can be used for the mother’s health care. From a policy perspective, Kang State spent a lot of money on population.

How can two men and two women have children if they live together?

Kang officials should lead by example and support the combination of yin and yang!

As soon as this statement came out, hundreds of officials agreed.

Shen Tang ate such a big melon at that time that he actually asked Bai Su and Bai Su what they meant. In the current social environment, it is not unreasonable for officials to worry. You can do whatever you want in private, but you can't have any real evidence on the surface, and you can use the excuse of deep love between brothers and sisters to excuse it.

Regardless of whether the outside world believes it or not, at least there is an explanation.

Bai Su said with a gloomy face: [No such thing. 】

Shen Zhi was in an unhappy mood: [General Bai has a life-saving grace for Yu Chen, is it crossing the line to have a closer personal relationship? Who are these idiots fabricating these rumors? If I were to catch him, I would have to scatter the ashes from that person's ancestral grave and tear that person's mouth apart! 】

A rumor offended both of them!

Shen Tang sent people to trace the source of the rumors, and finally the Yushitai found out the truth. The source of the gossip among the people turned out to be Shen Zhi's ex-lover, a scholar surnamed Li! This person was drunk and talking nonsense at a gathering, and outsiders listened.

[Bai Sutian came to rescue the beauty, and Shen Zhi fell in love at first sight! 】

The scene is described in detail, including a nose and eyes!

Shen Zhi brought No. 100 people to the house and smashed the pots and pans in his ex-lover's house! The yellow guard dog also kicked the dog bowl!

There is no use crying and shouting with the surname Li.

She was miserable, sobbing, and her face was swollen from being slapped by Shen Zhi.

Because the incident was too big, Shen Zhi was arrested again by the Yushitai, but this time it was a show for the public. When officials broke into people's homes, smashed them and even slapped them, the impact was really not good. They should also be fined a symbolic salary and think about their mistakes behind closed doors.

This punishment is insignificant to Shen Zhi.

Her errand is inherently leisurely.

Half the number of visits to the government office in a year is good.

The paperwork is basically left to other clerks.

She is also one of the few officials who can receive official bonuses. The few months of salary she receives can only be considered a drop in the bucket. The confinement is over, and folk gossip has changed. This incident will not affect the relationship between Shen Zhi and Bai Su. Whatever spices and powders she researches, whatever precious items she obtains, she always gives them to Bai Su first. The two families are neighbors.

The flower decorations in General Bai Su's mansion are always the most gorgeous. Even if she is not here, Shen Zhi will help her change a new batch every seven days. There are seasonal flowers all year round. embellishment.

Shen Tang has actually acquiesced.

As long as it doesn't affect her work, she doesn't mind.

But——

Smelling and smelling, I found that the source of the smell was Gu Chi.

She looked at Gu Chi, who looked at her nervously.

"Why does the smell come from you?"

"Is it true?"

"Yes, but the smell is light, not as strong as Shaoxuan's."


Her sense of smell is still very sensitive and she will not admit mistakes.

Gu Chi raised his sleeve and sniffed it carefully, with a calm expression. He immediately thought of something and explained with a smile: "I remembered it. I found that the incense made by Yaohe helped me fall asleep, so I asked her shamelessly for it. Maybe I got it wrong at that time?”

The excuse was a bit lame, but Shen Tang didn’t think much about it.

First of all, this matter has nothing to do with business, and secondly, Gu Chi doesn't have to deceive herself for a piece of incense. She cares more about the details.

“Sleep aid? How effective is it?”

Even when Gu Chi was sleeping, he would be affected by the dreams of living people nearby. He could not sleep peacefully all year round, and his eyes were darkened and his lips were blue. Imported sleeping foods and drugs can be weighed against each other, but the effect after a few years can only be said to be moderate, but not much.

This has also become a knot that Shen Tang can't let go of.

Gu Chi said with a smile: "It's okay."

"That's it? Very good, very good. After this battle, you can let Yaohe improve the fragrant recipe. It's three-point medicine. Poison, although literati are not afraid of ordinary poisons, taking medicine for many years will hurt your health. It may be better to use incense instead..."

She was concerned about Gu Chi's health both inside and outside her words.

Gu Chi's smile became increasingly forced and stiff.

Just when his conscience was troubled and he almost confessed, Qi Shan appeared. His appearance immediately diverted the Lord's attention. Shen Tang hurriedly pulled Qishan aside: "Yuanliang, how are things handled? What did Shanxiao say? Did he make things difficult for you?"

Shen Tang was still afraid that Qishan would suffer a loss.

Although he sent a message saying "everything is safe", he did not mention any specific details. Shen Tang suspected that he reported good news rather than bad news, and had to listen to the prayers in person to feel at ease. Qishan didn't say anything in the letter because he didn't want to occupy her rest time with trivial matters. Now that he was free in person, he briefly talked about the details of that day.

“Nvjun Cui has a broad mind and a deep understanding of righteousness!”

Shen Tang sighed again.

If it were me, I would never give up.

After the matter was settled, Shen Tang’s hanging heart was completely relieved, and he patted Qishan on the shoulder: “Even if this matter is over, don’t embarrass Shanxiao when you look back... It’s just, alas, Chang Zaihe How can you walk without getting your shoes wet? I wish you good luck!”

Not every enemy has a good girl like Cui Hui who understands others, and praying for kindness is not always possible. Someone who can turn danger into safety. No matter what, this level has been passed.

Pray for good: "..."

He and Gu Chi sat down in their respective places.

As soon as he sat down, Qi Shan saw such obvious marks on Gu Chi’s neck. He looked at Gu Chi and then at the unresponsive Lord, and he couldn’t help but frown. Immediately [transmit a message into the secret] and open a private chat: [Gu Wangchao, you prodigal son, behave better! 】

I don’t know where I came back from.

Let it be romantic, you don’t even know how to cover it up.

Gu Chi responded in a lazy voice: [What do you know? 】

Qishan said: [Morals are corrupted! 】

The most important thing is that it will lead to the bad master!

Gu Chi lowered his eyes and turned a deaf ear to the prayer. In fact, I started to roll my eyes internally.

Neither one of them realized his intentions. He was obviously showing off happily, but the Lord didn't understand. Qi Shan said that he was ruining the morals and was boring. Gu Chi pulled the collar up, but his efforts to deliberately pull the collar down were in vain...

The others haven't come yet.

Shen Tang picked up the paperwork on the desk and took a look at it to pass the time.

Kang Shi was the third one to come in.

As for Kang Shi, Shen Tang was actually not willing to take him with him, but considering that leaving Kang Shi in the Northern Desert, which was not yet completely stable, might be a bigger problem, it would be interesting if the lair accidentally caught fire. Therefore, after careful consideration, she decided to take Kang Jishou as her friend.

Kang Shi did not follow her into Fugu City yesterday.

There are two corpses here at the camp that need to be disposed of.

As soon as he arrived, Shen Tang hurriedly asked: "Ji Shou, how are the two informants around Mei Jinghe doing? What secrets do they have that are worth her efforts to destroy the corpses?" Destroy the traces? "

He did not hesitate to resort to means on Lu Jue.

Although Lu Jue's skills would not cause him to be blown up, the psychological shadow might be left behind, and she was ruthless enough.

Kang Shi stayed up all night because of this matter yesterday.

He said: "We did find some."

Shen Tang put down the document in his hand and motioned for him to continue.

Kang Shou took out a small scroll full of records from his sleeve and presented it with both hands. Shen Tang took it and unfolded it, reading it ten lines at a time. The brows are sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed. Kang Shi on one side also said: "Time is tight, and some information has not yet been written down. Does the Lord still remember that there was a powerful general beside Zheng Qiao, whose surname was Qi, whose given name was Cang, and whose courtesy name was Yanqing?"

Shen Tang said: "Qi Yanqing? Remember."

She was quite impressed by this brave warrior.

He sutured Zheng Qiao's head and buried his body.

Since then, I haven’t heard anything about Qi Yanqing’s whereabouts, and Shen Tang didn’t pay attention. Only then did he notice that Qi Yanqing's "Qi" was the national surname of Qi State: "Is Qi Yanqing a member of the Qi State's royal family?"

Kang Shi said: "That's not true. Qi of Qi State was the founding monarch of Qi State. Among the titles, the surname Qi. Mostly."

"Is he working for Qi State now?" Shen Tang has limited energy. In recent years, he has focused most of his attention on the governance of the Northern Desert, Gao State and his own people, and he has taken precautions and understanding of the southwest countries. But not in depth. As far as she knew, Qi State had a relatively strong presence in the Southwest Continent in recent years, and Qi Cang was not among the famous generals.

If he plays for Qi State, he will have to fight again in the future.

Kang Shi: "Yes, he was the one who promoted the current leader of Qi State. He may have wanted to avenge his old master." It’s not a complete failure, there are still people I wish him well.”

“Qi Yanqing should have taken away a piece of the national seal.”

According to the information extracted from the two corpses, the leader of Qi State relied on that national seal. Only then can we take the final step. Without the blessing of this national seal, she would have to serve as regent for at least two years before she could eliminate the opposition in the court and take control of the overall situation. With the national seal, one can be "justified" and there will be less resistance to ascending the throne.

This national seal helped the king a lot.

Shen Tang's smile stiffened a bit, and the stone sculptures of birds and fish that Zheng Qiao entrusted to Qi Cang came to mind. The corners of his mouth turned downward: "Tsk, Zheng Qiao really did have a backup plan..."< br>
It’s true that people don’t stop even after they die.

She asked again: "Besides this, what else is there?"

As the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Kang Shi was also an excellent literary scholar. If he didn't take action, he would be the king. Exploded, directly taking off the pants of both corpses. He also got a lot of confidential information from the corpse, such as Qi Guo being restricted by the Eternal Life Cult, and the attitude of both parties was ambiguous, seeming to be cooperative but also wary. The current stage is mostly cooperation, and the Immortal Sect is huge in the southwest.

“Is it the Eternal Life Sect again?”

"Again?"

"Yesterday I met a pair of masters and disciples. They said that they were from the Lu Kingdom in the southwest. Because the Eternal Life Sect excluded dissidents and persecuted other religions, they escaped because they could not survive in the local area. Among them My apprentice also asked me to be careful around Wu Zhaode. The Eternal Life Religion worships... It seems that the Eternal Life Religion is not satisfied with the southwest and wants to travel to the northwest to preach? "

Shen Tang does not interfere with other people's beliefs, but she does. Nor should others be allowed to use their beliefs to interfere in politics. Although he didn't know what the teachings of the Eternal Life Sect were, just looking at the name and its arrogance, Shen Tang knew that this thing was not a good thing, not to mention that the Eternal Life Sect was still on the side of Gao Guo and needed to be dealt with! Kang Shi also agreed: "Judging from the intelligence, Wu Zhaode agreed to let the Eternal Life Sect preach in Gaoguo in order to obtain the help of the Eternal Life Religion. If we can defeat and annex us, we can make the Eternal Life Religion the state religion in the future."

Shen Tang: "..."

She was completely speechless.

Has Wu Zhaode had his brain kicked by a donkey because he is old?

Does he know the consequences of allowing a pheasant cult to preach within the country? Would you also regard the other party as the state religion? Aren't you afraid that someone will stand firm and turn around to lift the area under his butt?

Kang Shi: "Wu Zhaode also had the intention of taking advantage."

It was just a verbal promise but it was not fulfilled immediately.

Just fall out after the deal is done.

Even if it is an imperial edict stamped with a monogram or a national seal, as long as he does not acknowledge it, it is just a piece of silk to wipe his ass, let alone fulfill it. Not only that, Wu Xian probably still has the ambition to find out the details of the Eternal Life Sect through cooperation, and then use the Eternal Life Sect as a springboard to annex the Southwest Continent. Haha, the abacus is very loud.

Shen Tang spit out one word for a long time: "6!"

Wu Zhaode used the trick of coaxing women on the Yongsheng Cult. He first made various promises to convince the Yongsheng Cult, and worked hard to accompany him. Let him struggle to start a business, knock his bones and suck out his marrow, and then kick people after he succeeds in his career. I don’t know if I believe in the Eternal Life Sect.

Kang Shi commented on this: "Each one has his own agenda."

Both sides are smiling on the outside, but secretly they have a knife hidden, ready to stab their allies in the heart at any time. . Shen Tang was surprised: "Why do two corpses have so much information?"

Did the corpse know too much when he was alive?

Kang Shi said: "Mei Meng cooperates with the Eternal Life Sect."

Shen Tang: "..."

Kang Shi said again: "She is still a member of the Society of Gods Although the deputy branch of the Southwest Branch is not as good as it used to be Yuan Liang is like a fish in water, but his voice in the Southwest Branch of the Gods Association is not weak. It is the leader of the Qi State who strongly supports him, which is very difficult to deal with."

Shen Tang: "... …”

Kang Shi continued: "The leader of the Eternal Life Sect..."

He seemed to be hesitating whether to continue speaking.

Shen Tang looked around and saw that there were only four people in the tent. Counting Gong Xiqiu, who was guarding her safety on top of the tent, there were only five people in total. The others were still on the way: "Here Wuwairen, if you have anything to say, you don’t have to be shy.”

Kang Shi glanced in the direction of the roof of the tent.

"Mei Meng, the Eternal Life Sect, and the Southwest Branch of the Gods Society are all strangers. She secretly used the Gods Society to investigate the details of the Eternal Life Sect. It was found out that the leader was suspected to be one of the five famous generals of the Wu Kingdom, and was related to Wenda, who is active on the battlefield in the Northern Desert, is from an era..."

_(:з ∠)_

I just found out that the title of my last chapter was wrong, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

PS: Today I went to see the local folklore activity Tiange in Puqi. There are so many people, so many that they are almost squeezed into human biscuits.
