Chapter 81: The plan is the plan

The reason why I wear gloves is to prevent people from peeking. The letter has been harshed with poison. If I don’t detoxify it in time after I encounter it, I will soon die of poison.

Some time ago, Zhang Xun had a maid who was in the study room who secretly read the letter because of curiosity. In the end, he was covered with large pieces of black pieces all over his body, which was very scary, and there were no usual human-faced peach blossoms.

With this lesson from the past, Zhang Xun will never forget to wear gloves every time he reads the letter.

At this time, he opened the latest letter his brother-in-law wrote to him, saying that someone would come to get the money in Beijing.

Zhang Xun felt a little heartbroken. There were only a few who actually fell into his pockets. After working so long, he was making clothes for others.

But thinking about the identity of that person, he became calm again. Now he felt a little painful. When that person goes up, he will have as much benefits as possible.

To be honest, it’s thanks to my brother-in-law who is threading needles and threads. Otherwise, just by his little prefect, how could he have a relationship with that person?

But I don’t know who the one who will send to withdraw money, so I still have to please him and ask him to go back and say a few good words to him.

At this moment, the voice of a servant suddenly came from outside the door.

"Master, someone has come to the mansion and said he is here to find you and is waiting in the hall now."

Zhang Xun thought to himself, could it be the envoy who came to withdraw money? Then he must not neglect it.

He quickly came out of the secret room, closed the agency again, and tidied up his clothes before walking towards the hall.

When he saw the hall, the man was drinking tea leisurely, with a calm expression. When he saw Zhang Xun, he stood up and saluted.

"Hello, Lord Zhang."

Zhang Xun was not sure who he was at this time, so he asked tentatively: "I wonder where this person came from?"

The man smiled slightly: "The humble official came from the capital and was entrusted by someone to come to find the Lord."

After saying that, he took out a sign from his arms and raised it to Zhang Xun to show it.

When Zhang Xun saw the four words on it, he was surprised. It was probably the one who said that brand. He actually asked someone to come to him with this brand, so he would definitely not recognize the wrong person.

"I have misunderstood the officials, so I hope the special envoy will forgive me. I wonder if the eldest prince will be happy soon?" Zhang Xun asked hurriedly.

The man's eyes and pupils opened slightly, as if he was surprised, but he returned to normal in an instant. Zhang Xun, who lowered his head, missed the change in his expression.

The person who talks to Zhang Xun is nothing but Su Muwan!

Originally, Su Muwan took the token given by Shangguan Chen, and originally wanted to create an imperial envoy for herself to scare Zhang Xun to see if she could make any words out of him.

So she spoke to Zhang Xun very vaguely, saying that she came from the capital and sent someone to find him. Her intention was to say that someone in the capital ordered her to investigate Zhang Xun.

However, he didn't expect that Zhang Xun would misunderstand, so he directly recognized her as the person who came to get money from the capital, and even directly mentioned the person behind the scenes.

It's Shangguan Qian?

Su Muwan didn't show her face, but she was shocked at this moment. If Shangguan Qian was sent to withdraw money, wouldn't it mean that all this was planned by him?

She felt a little disbelief. Although she knew that Shangguan Qian was not as gentle as he pretended to be, as gentle as jade and a gentleman, she did not expect that he would do such a thing.

After taking off his mask, is he actually such a person?

He still wants to take the throne like this. If he really goes up, I am afraid that the people in the world will suffer!

Su Muwan was thinking a lot and finally decided to use the trick. She pretended to be someone sent by Shangguan Qian to see what evidence she could find.

So she looked at Zhang Xun and smiled slightly: "The eldest prince is fine. When I came, he asked me to pass a message to you and the prefect of Qingcheng, saying that you have done a good job and he will value you more in the future."

Zhang Xun was so happy when he heard Su Muwan say this. He said that he was appreciated by Shangguan Qian, and it was really not in vain to pay so much money.

"It is our honor to be able to do things for the eldest prince. I hope the special envoy will tell you that we will do our best in the future." Zhang Xun smiled at Su Muwan with a flattering look on his face.

Su Muwan nodded, "I must tell you about this for you, but I wonder if you are ready for what the eldest prince wants?"

"I've been ready for a long time, so I'm waiting for the special envoy to come and get it. The special envoy might as well go with me."

Now Zhang Xun wanted Su Muwan to bring all the money back to the capital now, so that Shangguan Qian could quickly know his ability.

Su Muwan followed Zhang Xun all the way to the study, watching him open the secret room step by step, and couldn't help laughing.

"Mr. Zhang is indeed meticulous. I am afraid that no one can find such a method of hiding."

Zhang Xun was a little proud when she heard her praise herself like this: "I'm not hiding the envoy, Xiaguan's secret room was designed by himself and made by skilled craftsmen. Look, Xiaguan's mansion basically has no guards, because of this secret room, I feel very at ease."

Su Muwan nodded. Zhang Xun was indeed very thoughtful. However, Mo Yan and Mo Yu discovered his secret room the first time they arrived in his study. If Zhang Xun knew about it, I don’t know what to think.

After entering the secret room, Zhang Xun pointed to the boxes of silver on the ground, "Please look at the special envoy, this is what I have prepared for the eldest prince."

Su Muwan nodded and praised her, looking very agreeing: "It seems that Lord Zhang really remembered the eldest prince's orders in his heart. After seeing this, the eldest prince will definitely feel very happy."

After saying that, Su Muwan's eyes began to look around the small secret room, and finally his vision fell on the letters on the desk.

"Mr. Zhang is more careful and put this letter in the secret room."

But I was curious. Are the letters placed on it the ones that made Mo Yan poisoned?

When Zhang Xun heard Su Muwan talk about the letter, he replied: "The special envoy doesn't know anything. In order to prevent anyone from peeking, the brother-in-law and I have come up with a good idea."

Su Muwan raised her eyebrows, "Oh, what's the best way?"

Zhang Xun had some show-off thoughts, took out a pair of gloves and put them on his hand, stepped forward and pinched a letter, pointed at this and said to Su Muwan.

"Does the envoy know what we did in this letter?"

Su Muwan shook her head, and the curiosity on her face made Zhang Xun feel even more proud.

"The special envoy didn't know that this letter was poisoned by us. As long as we touched it with our hands, we would be poisoned. This poison is a strange poison we specially found, called Wuxue. When the poison is released, black will grow on the body. When it grows all over, it will die from poison. There is no medical treatment for the medicine stone."

"Why is that Lord Zhang okay with the letter?" Su Muwan saw that his gloves were different from the ordinary ones.

Sure enough, when Zhang Xun heard Su Muwan ask this, put down the letter, took off one glove, and said with his other hand.

"There is a layer of fabric made of gold silk on the outside, and it can be kept alive with all poisons."

Su Muwan looked closely and saw that the gloves were sparkling with golden light, and there was indeed a world of great power.

Seeing that Su Muwan seemed to be very interested in this glove, Zhang Xun asked with a wink, "There is a pair in the government office. If the special envoy is interested, the special envoy will be given to the special envoy."

Su Muwan was delighted, "That would be great, I would like to thank Lord Zhang for my humble position."

With this, if you ask Mo Yan and the others to come tonight, you can know what the letter said.

"Enterprise, do you need a subordinate to send someone to help the envoy move out these boxes?" Zhang Xun asked.

Su Muwan waved her hand and her tone was very free and easy, "It won't take Lord Zhang to worry. Let the people whom Beizhi bring today move themselves."

After saying that, Su Muwan gave Mo Yan and Mo Yu and others behind her. Several people came over and moved several boxes of heavy silver to the carriage outside with their heads.

Outside the gate, Mo Yan and Mo Yu and others had already put all the money on the carriage. Su Muwan stood in front of the carriage and refused Zhang Xun's request to stay for a few days.

"Mr. Zhang, I have other tasks on my body, so I can't obey my fate." Su Muwan looked at Zhang Xun with a look of embarrassment.

Seeing this, Zhang Xun took out a stack of silver notes from his arms and stuffed them into Su Muwan's hand. "Then the officials won't keep them, but if they ask the envoy to bring them to the eldest prince, I hope the envoy will convey it."

Su Muwan felt the thickness of her banknotes, at least a few thousand taels. It seems that Zhang Xun has also been plucking her into her pockets.

She nodded and smiled meaningfully at Zhang Xun, "Naturally, naturally, I will naturally tell the eldest prince about these hard work."

After hearing what she said, Zhang Xun smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a slit.

Finally, Zhang Xun looked at the carriage that was nowhere to be seen, and felt that his position as a high-ranking official was within reach, and he had a dream of getting promoted and making money in his heart.

On the carriage.

Su Muwan asked Mo Yan to drive the car and pretend to leave the city. Outside the city, he changed another carriage prepared in advance. Several people disguised themselves and changed their appearance and returned to Xin'an from the gate.

"Mo Yan, you will be guarding the city gate with a few people. Once you find the people sent by Shangguan Qian, do it immediately, so as not to cause trouble for our future plans."

Su Muwan ordered Mo Yan, "Mo Yan's hidden weapon is very good, and this kind of assassination is easy for him."

"Mo Yu, with this pair of gloves, you will look to Zhang Xun's mansion tonight and see clearly what is written in the several letters."

Mo Yu nodded, took the glove handed over by Su Muwan, and was very curious about it.

"The princess, what should I do if the things in this box are there?"

Mo Yu asked, he had seen the box before, and there were at least tens of thousands of taels of silver, and he didn't know what to do with it.

Su Muwan's lips curled up, "Let's go to the escort agency now and find someone to escort the money to the capital. Why don't you want the money you get for free?"

Besides, since this money is taken from the people, although it cannot be used for the people now, it cannot be left to these corrupt officials.
