Chapter 0276 Princess Favor

Lai Junchen is an extremely smart person. Of course, he could hear the implicit voice in Mr. Ming's words. He nodded softly and said, "I have never had a chance to explain. In fact, I found that Wan Guojun and Wu Furong had colluded. He revealed my plan to leave Chengdu to Wu Furong. In order to ensure Yang Pei's safety, I had to kill Wan Guojun. Although this was the worst, the situation was critical at the time, so I could only choose this way."

Wan Guojun was replaced by Wu Furong as deputy commander of the inner guard. He hated her to the core and would not reveal the secret to her. However, what Mr. Ming wanted was only a reason. He smiled and said, "If this is the case, then I believe the prince will understand it."

Wan Guojun died for Wu Sansi stealing information, but in the end he was betrayed by Qingpiaopiao. If he had any knowledge underground, he would not know what he would feel?

The two of them laughed tacitly, and Lai Junchen breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't want to go against Wu Sansi, and he still hoped to get Wu Sansi's support.

At this time, Mr. Ming took out a gold medal from his arms, put it on the table, pushed it to Lai Junchen, and smiled and said, "I think this gold medal will have some effect on Lai Zhongcheng."

Lai Junchen was stunned. He slowly picked up the gold medal, looked left and right, and his hands trembled. This is one of the three items mentioned by the emperor: Li Yuanjia’s gold medal in Xingtang Association. Are there any oath list and letters?

Mr. Ming understood what he meant and apologized: "There is only this gold medal, I just got it today."

He briefly said the story of Zhuang Wenzhong sending the gold medal, and finally said: "Although Zhuang Wenzhong is the person of His Highness King Liang, for the sake of the overall situation, His Highness King Liang decided to hand him over to Lai Zhongcheng, hoping to treat him with courtesy as much as possible. If there is something that is really unavoidable, His Highness King Liang can understand."

Lai Junchen was overjoyed. With the gold medal and Zhuang Wenzhong, he had a breakthrough. He quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Mr. Ming, "Please tell His Highness King Liang that Lai Junchen will remember his kindness."

Mr. Ming squinted his eyes and smiled, "Why, if Mr. Ming has any needs for us, please just say it bluntly, Your Highness King Liang will definitely do his best to help."

Lai Junchen sent Mr. Ming away. He walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about the next countermeasures. It was obvious that since Zhuang Wenzhong could get the Xingtang meeting gold medal from Li Xunzhi, the alliance affidavit and correspondence letters would not be hidden elsewhere. Li Zhen must have obtained them. Where would Li Zhen put them? Was it given to Li Xian or Li Dan, or was it hidden?

Thinking of this, Lai Junchen walked to the door and ordered: "Let Suowen come to see me."

Soon, Suo Wen hurried over. He had now been promoted to the deputy leader of the gangster warrior under Lai Junchen. His brother So Ying was also highly valued by Lai Junchen and was responsible for managing the Luming Villa for Lai Junchen. The Suo brothers were proud and worked especially for Lai Junchen.

"Accounting for the Chief Executive"

Lai Junchen looked back at him and smiled, "I remember you told me that you have a good relationship with Li Zhen and his subordinates?"

Suo Wen didn't know why Lai Junchen asked about this, so he felt a little uneasy and had to bite the bullet and said, "Everyone is a fellow countryman, and he had a good relationship when he was in Dunhuang. Like Li Pan, Zhang Li and Bei Zhi were both family friends."

"Since that's the case, I want to let you have a condom relationship with a few fellow family members in the world. I need to get some news from them."

After a pause, Lai Junchen said again: "I have a few more things to do, and I must do my best."

"Harewell to the duty... obey the order"

Li Zhen met Li Chengqi two days ago and gave him the correspondence between Li Dan and Li Yuanjia, and also handed over some of the royal family's letters to Li Chengqi. He admitted to Li Chengqi that the list of oaths had been given to Li Xian. Li Chengqi was not surprised by this. His father said that Li Zhen would definitely give the affidavit to his brother, after all, there was Shangguan Wan'er.

In addition to returning the letters to the original owner one by one, Li Zhen sent someone to Yangzhou to find Zhuang Wenzhong to find out the whereabouts of the gold medal. At this time, Li Zhen did not know that Zhuang Wenzhong had secretly come to Beijing, and had handed the gold medal to Wu Sansi.

For several days, Li Zhen was busy recruiting new inner guards. Fifty new warriors were basically recruiting all, and the reorganization of inner guards went smoothly. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel agreed to his plan, transferred Cui Shaoying away and promoted him to chief clerk Yang Xin to chief secretary.

In addition, it turned out that the three inner guard captains under Wu Furong had also been transferred. The Ministry of War agreed to Li Zhen's recommendation and appointed Jiu Zhi, Pei Kuan, Zhang Ran, Li Pan and other four as the new lieutenants. In this way, the Chief Shi and the eight lieutenants were all Li Zhen's confidants, and he firmly controlled the inner guard in his own hands.

That morning, Li Zhen went to the Inner Guards and Outer Office one hour in advance. Although there was no need for the Inner Guards to exist after the cancellation of the left and right deputy commanders, the Inner Guards' Outer Office was not necessary, but considering the particularity of the Inner Guards, it was still necessary for the Outer Office to exist, as a dormitory and a place for rest and gatherings for warriors.

Li Zhen urged the horse to walk slowly on the Tianjin Bridge. At this time, a carriage came across from the opposite side, and more than a dozen guards rode horses to protect the surroundings. Li Zhen also slowed down his horse. He turned over and got off the horse and stood aside. At this time, the carriage slowly stopped in front of him, and the curtain was opened, revealing Princess Taiping's slightly thick face.

"Commander Li, congratulations on the promotion"

"Thank you for your good words, and thank you for your tolerance"

The tolerance Li Zhen mentioned means that Princess Taiping handed over the right to the inner guard very happily, without any embarrassing him, so that he could complete the rectification and reorganization smoothly. Otherwise, as long as Princess Taiping had a hint, the Ministry of War might not approve his plan. Li Zhen was indeed quite grateful.

"You don't have to thank you, this is the reward you deserve." Princess Taiping narrowed her eyes, with a hint in her eyes.

Li Zhen understood what she meant, and he quickly took out four letters from his arms and presented them to Princess Taiping. Princess Taiping took the letter and looked at it. It was indeed four letters he wrote to Li Yuanjia. She then tore the four letters to pieces and gently threw the debris into a box, and let down her heart.

She said to Li Zhen lightly: "Since you are unwilling to accept my gift, I will tell you another news. Li Yuanjia's gold medal has fallen into Wu Sansi's hands. However, last night, Mr. Ming visited Lai Junchen. I think you should know Zhuang Wenzhong. He has been sent to Lai Junchen's Luming Villa. Let's say that Lai Junchen and Wu Sansi have already started to attack you behind your back. If you need help, I am happy to help you."

After saying that, she ordered, "Open it."

The carriage slowly started and continued to drive towards the gate of the Imperial City. Li Zhen stood on the Tianjin Bridge and watched Princess Taiping's carriage go away. His heart was in a mess. Princess Taiping brought him bad news. The gold medal had fallen into the hands of Wu Sansi and Lai Junchen. Since Princess Taiping knew about Zhuang Wenzhong, she was not deceiving herself.

Because Li Zhen also knew that the golden bowl was most likely in Zhuang Wenzhong's hands, but he didn't expect that Wu Sansi and Lai Junchen would take the lead.

Li Zhen pondered for a moment, and he turned over and urged the horse to go to Gao Yanfu's mansion.

At noon, Gao Yanfu returned to the mansion for lunch, just as usual. As soon as he entered the mansion, the housekeeper stepped forward to report: "Master, Commander Li has come and has been waiting in the guest hall for more than half an hour."

"oh--"

Gao Yanfu was not surprised and nodded and said, "Please come to my study."

Gao Yanfu returned to the study and had just changed his clothes when the butler knocked at the door, "Master, Chief Li is here."

"Please come in"

The door opened, Li Zhen walked in quickly, bowed and said, "I'll join the mansion."

"No need to be polite, please sit down"

Gao Yanfu smiled and asked Li Zhen to sit down, and asked the butler to bring some wine and food. He sat down and said, "If you don't have lunch, then let's have a drink with me."

Li Zhen nodded silently, and for a moment, the housekeeper brought the wine and food. Gao Yanfu poured Li Zhen a glass of wine and said with a smile: "It's a good thing to be promoted and promoted, why are you not very happy?"

Li Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. The emperor openly gave me a reward, but secretly asked Lai Junchen to investigate me, and I really couldn't get better."

"What is the Lord going to investigate you?" Gao Yanfu said with a resolute smile.

"because--"

Li Zhen sighed, "Because I have three missing items in the list of swearing lists, letters and Li Yuanjia's gold medals, the emperor probably thinks I'm deceiving her."

Gao Yanfu laughed, "The Emperor is an unprecedented female emperor. Her thunderous means have made many ministers remember it for life. If she thinks you are deceiving her, she will kill you on the spot. She will never be promoted or promoted, and you will not have the chance to sit in front of you."

"But... I am indeed deceiving her. Even the Shangguan Sheren heard that the emperor may not know?"

"You still don't understand what I mean. If the Lord doesn't want those three things at all, or her original intention is to let you destroy the list of swearings, and you said you didn't find it, she knew it clearly, is this considered deceiving her?"

"Mr. Fu, I'm still a little confused. Even if I destroy the list of swearings, I should tell her the truth. This is not called deception."

Gao Yanfu waved his hand gently, "You really don't understand the emperor's heart. Actually, I told you before that her strongest opponent in her life is not the one who opposes her, but herself. I know it's hard to understand, but don't worry, she doesn't think you're deceiving her, so don't think too much."

Li Zhen breathed a little relieved. Gao Yanfu was Wu Zetian's confidant eunuch. He must have a reason for him to say this. Although it is a bit incredible, Li Zhen believed that Gao Yanfu was truly helping him, which was different from Shangguan Wan'er.

After coming out of Gao Yanfu's mansion, Li Zhen came to the inner and outer offices of Quanshanfang. As soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw a gust of wind running over, "Old Li, go back quickly, something seems to have happened in your house."

Li Zhen was startled and said anxiously: "What happened to my eldest sister?"

Jiuzhi scratched his head, "Your sister is fine, but she asked her family to come to you just now and asked you to go back immediately."
