Shangguan Chen hurried away.l.

He was in a hurry, so he only brought a few followers and started traveling early the next morning.

This person who is hidden under Qin Shaoyou's account is now carrying a great mission.

When he got on the boat at the dock, he looked at the five military camps that were getting farther and farther away, and he didn't look relaxed.

Even if he was heartless, he knew what a cruel game there would be next, and the place of the game was in Chang'an.

Since His Highness the King of Wei invited the second prince, this means that he can give it a try. It is precisely because of this that Qin Shaoyou told himself that everything about Chang'an is up to him to do his own thing.

The four words of self-decision mean that His Highness the King of Wei is ready.

Shangguan Chen was drinking in the cabin, and in a few days, he arrived at Hangu Pass. Then, he went to pay homage to Wei Xuanzhen as usual.

Shangguan Chen is here again.

Wei Xuanzhen was quite surprised to learn about this news. This guy went to Chang'an a month ago and had just made a round trip, but he had to pass the test again. This made Wei Xuanzhen feel incredible.

Since Shangguan Chen is visiting, Wei Xuanzhen knows the details of this person and is unwilling to deal with him, but she also wants to test the purpose of this person.

So he met Shangguan Chen in his temporary headquarters.

"Are you going to Chang'an again?"

Looking at Shangguan Chen who was exhausted, Wei Xuanzhen seemed to be smiling.

Shangguan Chen smiled and said, "Yes, there is a transaction in Chang'an that needs to be dealt with, so my nephew must go."

What Shangguan Chen is using is the guise of doing business.

It is well known that he serves Qin Shaoyou.

However, Wei Xuanzhen did not point it out, but just smiled and said, "Ah, my uncle doesn't seem to be idle either. How about it, where did the nephew come from?"

"Weizhou." Shangguan Chen did not hide it from him.

Hearing the word Weizhou, Wei Xuanzhen narrowed his eyes. He also knew about Weizhou. Qin Shaoyou is now training troops in Weizhou. The momentum is huge, and it is said that he is raising 200,000 soldiers and is eyeing him. This makes Wei Xuanzhen feel great pressure. Hangu Pass has to increase his troops again and again. The current situation is that the outside is loose and tight inside. On the surface, Hangu Pass is still easy to guard against, but inside is extremely nervous, afraid that the King of Wei, who is respectful overnight, will be at the city.

Wei Xuanzhen said: "Weizhou is a good place. I heard that Qin Shaoyou is also in Weizhou. Haha, why? You have seen Qin Shaoyou."

Shangguan Chen nodded: "Yes, Your Highness, King of Wei is indeed in Weizhou. My nephew will live with him."

Wei Xuanzhen looked at him with a faint look. Shangguan Chen knew everything, but what could he do if he answered? In fact, even if he denied it, he would not believe it. Since this person was going to Chang'an, he must have a mission. As for what mission he had, this is the key point.

Wei Xuanzhen knew that other words could be asked. However, some people who could not answer and could not expect Shangguan Chen to answer, so he clicked on his question. He smiled and said, "Weizhou is a good place, it is a place that must be fought for by military strategists. It is well-connected, and it is not only a barrier to Luoyang, but also a gateway to Hebei."

Shangguan Chen pursed his lips and smiled: "Isn't this the case with Hangu Pass?"

Wei Xuanzhen was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter.

Immediately afterwards, someone brought tea. Wei Xuanzhen invited Shangguan Chen to have tea. Shangguan Chen lent a tea. He said casually: "This time I went to Jingzhao, I passed through Hangu Pass, and then I came to pay homage to Uncle Shi. Uncle Shi has been staying in Hangu Pass. Uncle Shi is a servant, and I am stationed outside, so I will inevitably be speculated by people."

His unintentional words aroused Wei Xuanzhen's unhappiness. Indeed, he was a dignified servant, but he had been staying in Hangu Pass, but now he became a general in Hangu Pass. Wei Xuanzhen was still a person who wanted face after all. When he thought that there must be some rumors, his face turned cold.

Shangguan Chen said: "What's more, my nephew has heard of some things, saying that the Empress is more trusting about Wei Chengqing now. Then Wei Chengqing is just a little Huangmen minister. However, when he entered the palace repeatedly, he was like a fish in water. In and outside Chang'an, it is said that he is now a hidden minister in the court, and his government orders are mostly from the hands of him, Huangmen minister. Do Uncle Shi know these things?"

Wei Xuanzhen's face turned red. How could he not know about Wei Chengqing? Wei Chengqing is his nephew. Although he is still close, a nephew is becoming more and more important. On the other hand, he is really sad. Now Shangguan Chen doesn't open any pots to carry any pots, so he naturally looks bad. So he said coldly: "Oh, Chengqing is my husband's nephew, but he is a stable person."

"Did Uncle Shi have never thought about going back to Chang'an at all?" Shangguan Chen said suddenly.

Wei Xuanzhen yelled: "What are you doing when you go back to Chang'an? Here is Hangu Pass, you are free and easy. I have always wanted to find a quiet place, and it is the best here." But my face looked very bad.

Wei Xuanzhen no longer wanted to say anything to Shangguan Chen, but just exchanged a few greetings. Shangguan Chen saw that it was almost done and was ready to continue his journey, so he said goodbye and left.

Wei Xuanzhen was quite polite to this Shangguan family. He sent him out and when he returned to his headquarters, a person flashed out of the small hall just now, but his son-in-law Zhang Jin. Zhang Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "Sir Taishan, why did he say so much to him? This person?"

Wei Xuanzhen waved his hand: "No, I'm just trying him. Don't you understand? This person just now wants to alienate the Wei family. He actually used this trick of using worms. Is this foolish trick? Is this foolish? How could he be fooled?"

This is what Zhang Jin wanted to say. Seeing Wei Xuanzhen calm, he couldn't help but sigh of relief: "The key to the problem is that he went to Chang'an, but he didn't know what purpose he was."

Wei Xuanzhen's face was dark and uncertain. He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, and slowly said, "There must be something important. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't go to Chang'an. Qin Shaoyou invited the second prince, and he must have made a lot of plans. Now Shangguan Chen is anxious to go to Chang'an again, but it can be seen that they can't stand it anymore. In this way, it is very likely that something big will happen."

Wei Xuanzhen looked alert. He didn't dare to neglect Shangguan Chen at all.

Many people know about Shangguan Chen's identity. This person is equivalent to the Minister of Rites under Qin Shaoyou, who is responsible for establishing relationships with Qin Shaoyou. Moreover, this person is indeed not bad, and he has maintained superficial friendship with many people. Even some people from the Wei family.

Moreover, it is reported that this person is also responsible for inquiring about the news for Qin Shaoyou. Wei Xuanzhen looked coldly: "I have been suspicious that the last time the troubled city had something to do with him, so this person should not be underestimated. Even the empress can be found out about the drug. Last time, he also went to Chang'an, but not long after, the woman Wu Zetian arrived in Chang'an, and our Wei family was passive everywhere. Now, he had just gone to Weizhou to fight back and forth, and he was about to enter the pass again. This must have accepted Qin Shaoyou's major mission and had something to do."

Zhang Jin pursed his lips: "Why wouldn't you just send a team of people to chase him back, or just pretend to be a bandit and kill him."

Wei Xuanzhen looked at him angrily, and then sneered: "What's the use of killing Shangguan Chen? Qin Shaoyou's account is missing? If you kill him today, there will be a second and third tomorrow. The key is Qin Shaoyou, not his lackeys. Besides, this person has a lot of friends. If you really want to kill it, it will only attract more speculation. There is no need for this."

Zhang Jin nodded timidly and felt a little reckless.

Wei Xuanzhen sighed: "In short, since he is going to Chang'an, he must take strict precautions. You can write a letter immediately and send it to Chang'an so that the other side can know about this. The Empress should not be careless."

Zhang Jinheshou: "Son-in-law will do it now."

Wei Xuanzhen didn't feel relaxed. He frowned and couldn't help but start guessing again what mysterious thing this Shangguan Chen was doing.

In fact, the urgent report from Hangu Pass was faster than Shangguan Chen. Before Shangguan Chen could enter the capital, the express report was delivered to the palace.

Empress Wei never dared to take any news from Hangu Pass. When she saw that the urgent report mentioned only such a small matter, she was a little confused. Although she knew that Shangguan Chen was not simple, she sent the urgent report because this person came to Beijing. In her opinion, it was still a bit of a big deal.

This is actually Empress Wei’s biggest weakness. She and Wu Zetian are actually the same. They are both ambitious and have very clever skills. Otherwise, how could she master Li Xian and be powerful for a while.

The only thing she can't compare to Wu Zetian is that she is still an ordinary woman after all. Wu Zetian has a far-sighted vision and her eyes are not placed in one corner, but the whole world. But she seems a little short-sighted, and most of the time, she just stares at the sky in the palace.

Fortunately, this unusual news was enough to arouse her vigilance.

In recent days, Wei Chengqing's frequency of entering the palace has become increasingly high. Even most of the time, he was in the palace's Secretariat. As long as Empress Wei summons him, only a few incense sticks are needed, the Huangmen Minister can immediately go to Changle Palace to meet him.

Empress Wei came to Wei Chengqing and then handed the express report to him: "What does this father mean by this palace? Can the Wei Qing family report?

Wei Chengqing only glanced at it, then narrowed his eyes, his eyes full of vigilance. He pondered for a moment and said, "Shi Zhong Wei is not making a big deal, but smelling a little different meaning."

Seeing that Wei Chengqing was about to talk again, Empress Wei said, "You continue talking."

Wei Chengqing said: "I won't say much about Shangguan Chen's identity. This person is Qin Shaoyou's minion. Why did he come to Chang'an repeatedly? Since he came here, he must be under the instructions of Qin Shaoyou. What do he want to do? This person is definitely not a small person under Qin Shaoyou's account. Since that's the case, the plan must be quite large when coming to Chang'an. The empress is easy to block hidden arrows and cannot be guarded against. This person is the hidden arrow shot by Qin Shaoyou, so he must not be looked at by him."

Empress Wei frowned: "It's really so serious."

But she believed it after all. Although her father was confused, he was not a fool after all. Besides, even Wei Chengqing thought so, so it seemed that he had to be careful.

"Since that's the case, let's keep an eye on him all the time. As a last resort, just give him a break."

Wei Chengqing just smiled slightly and shook his head and said, "This is not a solution, but I think it cannot cure the root cause."

Empress Wei said: "What is the root cause treatment?"

Wei Chengqing sighed: "Since this person comes to Chang'an, he must use all the power he can use to do harmful things to the Wei family. In this Chang'an, what is their power? In the past, Qin Shaoyou was in Chang'an, and at most, he just kept some peddlers and barracks to find out some news for him, but now it is different. The emperor is in Chang'an, and now many people put their hopes on the emperor. The empress, with her bold prediction, Shangguan Chen must contact these people and plan for something big. They are in the dark, we are in the light, and we are in the light, and although people are surveillance, the effect is not great. After all, he is not an ordinary person. Since he comes blatantly, there will definitely be a way to hide his eyes and ears."

Empress Wei frowned even deeper.

In fact, what she was most worried about now was a group of anti-Wei people in Chang'an City. These people were not ordinary people. Some of them were nobles, some were ministers in the court, some were famous scholars, some generals, and even some Guanzhong clans were involved. If so, Shangguan Chen might have come to contact these people and conspired with them.

Is there even a uterine change?

Although Empress Wei had already been vigilant enough, this matter was really unsure.

"So, according to your opinion, what should I do?"

Empress Wei looked at Wei Chengqing with confidence. The reason why Wei Chengqing was trusted by her was that there were always many reasons except for his words, and I am afraid that it was inseparable from his demeanor.

This person is different from others. When something happens to others, they either remain silent or panic. However, he always looks calm. Seeing that he is so calm, Queen Wei couldn't help but be infected by him and felt a little calm.

Today is a big chapter, and it will be updated early tomorrow.
