Lin Hao left.

The person in the dark did not move.

He seemed to be asleep.

Until the door of the room was knocked again.

"Bang bang bang."

The voice was very light and seemed a little hesitant.

"Come in!"

The person in the dark said lightly.

The one who came in was a middle-aged man wearing a thick cotton robe, with a little depressed and dull look.

But if you look closely, his eyes even have a hint of cruelty.

"Sit down, Lord Xing." The person in the secret smiled slightly, "It's been a long time since we met!"

"I wish I would never meet you again in my life!" The man said angrily, "You ran away, but why are you running back now? Do you know that you are prone to implicating many people?"

"I know, but I can't stop coming back." The person in the secret was still laughing, "If you don't come back, can I see you, Lord Xing, and tell you the intimate words?"

"Stop doing this!" the man snorted coldly, "If you have anything to do, hurry up and say it, I have to go back to work!"

"Oh? Does Ge Songdao trust you very much?" asked the person in the secret in surprise.

The man replied proudly: "Of course! I am the oldest chief of the Imperial Court Office, and I am most familiar with the matter here. Lord Ge is a newcomer, so how can I not use me?"

"But why did I hear that you were idle and the one who was most valued was Gu Xiangxian?" said the man in secret, "It could be Miao Yan who told Ge Song that you are not very reliable and not enough to entrust the important task, right?"

"Shut up!"

The man was angry, "You bastard! Do you think you are still the prince's favorite minister now? You are just a dog in the water! I didn't catch you in prison. The same fate as Lin Yao and the others is already kind enough! Don't try to challenge my patience!!"

"Okay, we won't mention this." The person in the secret did not argue with each other, but took the initiative to make a step back.

Seeing him stop talking, the man was not happy, but instead felt a deep loss, fear and confusion.

His name is Xing Yushu, one of the eight sixth-rank chief constables of the Imperial Court. He is mainly responsible for the public security of the Imperial Court. He should be said to have very heavy power.

This is also nonsense.

You can try the eight deputy police chiefs in the entire capital area and you will know what a powerful role they are.

Everyone has shortcomings.

Xing Yushu is no exception. His shortcomings are greed.

Although Xing Yushu only eats, drinks and receives gifts, he actually secretly controlled a group of people to extort some little rich people from other places who had no followers.

If you do this for a long time, of course, you will have a capsized time.

Once, he accidentally killed the couple in charge because of a masterpiece ancient painting with a history of hundreds of years, and then had to kill the two children who rushed over after hearing the sound. Afterwards, he set fire to the house.

He is responsible for the aftermath of this matter.

I thought it was done perfectly, but I didn't expect that there was still a fatal evidence to be mastered by the man in front of me.

From then on, he became the other party's puppet.

Half of the reason is of course because of the other party's identity - the prince's official. Following him means following the prince to do things, which is very beneficial.

The reason for the other half is that no matter who becomes the prefect of the Imperial Palace, as long as the evidence is handed over, he will definitely be beheaded and displayed in public.

After all, the Legalists don’t tell you any favors, their hearts are cold.

So with the same kindness and power, Xing Yushu kept following him to do things.

The relationship between the two of them was still good before, but with the cover of the Ministry of Revenue's corruption case, the prince was demoted to King Ren, and then suddenly died suddenly for no reason. Xing Yushu suddenly lost contact with him.

In fact, Xing Yushu made up his mind that once he was arrested into the Imperial Court Office, he would do everything possible to get his handle back.

But unexpectedly, this man suddenly disappeared mysteriously, and even the embroidered uniform guard could not find him.

Several months have passed, but there is still no news about him. Xing Yushu thought he had gone to a foreign land and would never come back.

But, just yesterday, he received another letter from the demon, asking him to come here to meet.

After hesitating for a long time, Xing Yushu came here.

He knew that this man had always been smart and could not have made an appointment with him so unpreparedly. He must have a backup plan.

Maybe he grabbed him in with his front foot, and someone went to Ge Song with evidence.

Therefore, Xing Yushu's rage just now was just a bluff.

And the man in the dark was not even angry at all, which made him feel even more mysterious.

So he was even more afraid to use the group of backhanders who were ambushing outside twenty feet away.

Xing Yu Shu was confused.

I don’t know how long it took, but the secret talent spoke again: “This time I came here, I want you to do one thing, or four things.”

"Dream!" Xing Yushu flatly refused, "If I don't arrest you, it's already the best of my kindness. Get out of here quickly, otherwise you will suffer after being arrested."

He is not stupid.

It is worth the great risk this person takes. Things that come here to do in person must be quite small, and there must be risks.

I finally got more stable. If I took risks, I might have capsized.

The person in the secret smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to do anything dangerous, I just want you to help spread some words. There are rumors in Beijing all day long, and there are a few more, so it shouldn't be anything, right?"

When Xing Yushu heard that it was this, he felt relieved.

He had several people under his command, who were specifically responsible for spreading rumors, and he also relied on some false news to make people deceived.

"What is it?" he asked in a deep voice.

"First, King Virtue is a natural and intelligent person, and is a saint respected by Legalism and Confucianism. He should become the crown prince and the next emperor. If he chooses King Ning, it is unfair and goes against the public opinion of the world.

Second, King De used the goods from his workshop as a link to build a network and unite all the royal families around him. This is a typical manifestation of fighting for the hearts of the royal family and fighting for the throne.

Third, King De privately created powerful monster explosives, but actually wanted to use these uncontrolled things with bad intentions. Once he couldn't get what he wanted, he would do something disobedient."

Xing Yushu frowned slightly when he heard this, and after a while, he said, "That's it?"

"Well, you can just spread these three things." The secret person said, "The more people know, the better, and the more people talk, the better."

"How much hatred do you have with King De?" Xing Yushu knew him well and couldn't help asking when he saw this, "Is it too... King Ren killed by King De?"

The person in the dark was silent for a moment before answering: "It's not him, but it has nothing to do with him."

"scare!?"

Xing Yushu suddenly shook, and he felt a little panicked inexplicably: "He actually killed King Ren? This... the emperor doesn't know? I... I..."

He suddenly became greedy and wanted to inform him.

But the person in the secret laughed, "I just said it was related, not that it was his doing, nor was it instructed by him... Don't do it randomly, otherwise my life will be lost, and I can't guarantee it."

As long as Xing Yushu dares to report to the emperor, he will be arrested immediately and then tortured severely. In the end, he will definitely be unable to support his confession.

This is very obvious.

After hearing what he said, Xing Yushu was very dissatisfied: "Is it interesting for you to tease me like this? I..."

Suddenly, a silver note appeared on the table.

The amount says "10,000 taels".

Shining.

"This ten thousand taels of silver is enough for you to send someone to do things, right?" the person in the secret said lightly.

"Enough! Enough!"

Xing Yushu quickly accepted the silver notes, and his spirits improved a lot.

The person in the dark shook his head inadvertently.

Such a greedy person, even if he is capable, has very limited achievements.

...

When Xing Yushu left, there was only one person left in the room.

He focused on the flames of the oil lamp and recalled the reactions of the two of them just now.

He was not worried about whether Lin Hao would agree.

Lin Hao has no way out, so it is most beneficial for him to ask Lin Hao to work with people from Japan.

As for why I had to go to Lin Hao, there is naturally a reason.

Lin Hao's father Lin Zhenyuan served as the governor of the canal transport for more than ten years. The canal transport yamen was in the heart of Jiangnan, a well-connected Jiangnan like Huai'an, and of course he had a lot of connections.

Most of the people under Lin Hao's command come from these areas, so they are very familiar with the situation in Jiangnan and are typical local snakes.

With Lin Hao and others helping those Japanese, they will be more purposeful and targeted to burn, kill and loot, causing huge troubles and troubles to Jiangnan.
