In this way, after a meal, the curfew time was unknowingly passed.

Fortunately, the members of the Imperial City Department have public offices on the one hand, and on the other hand, they are almost all children of ministers, so naturally no one dares to make things difficult for them.

"Brother, I think Luo Shazi's plan is pretty good. I didn't expect that after this guy was no longer stupid, his head was so smart."

Under the starry night, Cheng Chuliang walked while walking.

"I also think what he said makes sense." Cheng Chusi turned his head to the other side, "You didn't agree immediately, but what are your concerns?"

Qin Shidao and Du Gou, who were traveling with him, ignored him, and the latter smiled and said, "Of course, they have concerns."

"We are all my brothers, so let's talk about any concerns." Cheng Chuliang urged.

"Are you worried about losing your capital?" Cheng Chusi stretched out his body and smiled: "Don't worry, if there is a problem, my brothers will bear it together. What's there to be afraid of?"

"It's not going to lose money." Qin Shidao said behind his back: "Brother Du and I are worried that the business will go too smoothly. Once we grow bigger, we want to collect it but can't collect it."

Du Gou nodded slightly.

Cheng Chuliang said: "This is rare, and there are still people who are worried about doing a good business."

Qin Shidao explained: "If you operate each person, the bigger the business, the better.

But Deputy Envoy Luo’s proposal is equivalent to putting everyone on a boat and moving forward and retreating together. If this is in the eyes of those who are interested, why not make a big fuss?”

"What articles can I do? Who dares to make articles with us?" Cheng Chuliang didn't understand even more.

Du Gou said: "In the smallest, it was us children who got together to make trouble, but in the largeest, it was the powerful and powerful in the court who formed a clique for personal gain!

After all, our identity background is here, so it is hard not to attract attention.”

Qin Shidao also said: "Even if no one pays attention now, when we are older and officially enter the official career, we will not be able to cover it up if we want to cover it up!"

"Form a clan for personal gain?" Cheng Chusi couldn't help cursing when he heard it: "If this arouses suspicion from the emperor, the least it will be lost, and the worst it will be confiscated and the worst it will be destroyed!"

Cheng Chuliang then woke up and shouted, "So Sha Zi, this guy, wants to fool us?"

For a moment, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

What kind of hatred? What kind of grudge? Luo Taisui actually wanted to use such a poisonous plan to catch them and the family behind them in one place!

"We have dug his ancestral grave?! He actually wants to harm us like this!" Cheng Chubi's eyes widened.

Everyone looked at each other.

"No, Deputy Envoy Luo is not like this." Changsun Chong hurriedly helped Luo Taisui clarify.

But his weak voice was soon drowned in the crowd's discussion.

At this time, Chai Zhewei could only hear: "Is it because of Duke Yan..."

"Zhewei!" Qin Shidao immediately interrupted him, and then said to the three brothers of the Cheng family: "You should all understand the nature of Deputy Envoy Luo. He is not a vicious person who is good at conspiracy and tricks."

The three brothers of the Cheng family thought about it but did not refute it.

I have worked with the Imperial City Department for so long. In everyone's eyes, Luo Taisui is an open-minded person who is straightforward and cares about everything.

Take the three of them as an example. When they were young, they bullied Luo Taisui so much, but Luo Taisui didn't mention it at all, as if it had never happened.

So they don’t deal with Luo Taisui on the surface, but in fact they are still a little convinced by Luo Taisui.

Fang Yi touched his chin and guessed: "Can he not consider this joint himself?"

Du Gou shook his head and said, "With his mind, how could he miss such an important question?"

Changsun Chong looked at Fang Yizhi, then Du Gou, his lips moved, but he stopped talking.

"That's just intentional!" Chai Zhewei said decisively.

"not necessarily!"

Unexpectedly, this time it was Yuchi Baolin who denied it.

"Why?" the others all asked questions.

Yuchi Baolin's eyes turned: "Did you forget Princess Changle?"

Qin Shidao and Du Gou suddenly felt aroused.

"Changle?" Cheng Chusi was puzzled, "What does this have to do with her?"

Yuchi Baolin said with a smile: "When Luo Taisui said he had never seen Princess Changle before, don't you find it strange?"

"You mean Luo Shazi is lying?" Cheng Chusi was a little confused.

"I remember..." Cheng Chuliang said thoughtfully: "Long before Luo Shazi joined the Imperial City Department, Changle seemed to have known him and called him Luo Datou... This was what you discovered by Yuchi."

"Hey!" Yuchi Baolin raised a palm, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not questioning Luo Taisui's words.

However, if Luo Taisui does not know Princess Changle, it does not mean that Princess Changle does not know Luo Taisui."

This sounds contradictory, but some people are awakened.

"What do you mean is that Princess Changle knows Deputy Envoy Luo, but Deputy Envoy Luo doesn't know Princess Changle's true identity?" Qin Shidao said this to the point.

"In other words, Deputy Envoy Luo had seen Princess Changle, but he didn't know it himself." Du Gou seemed to understand something.

"You have successfully made me faint." Cheng Chuliang held his forehead with his hands.

"Actually, I didn't think much about it at first." Yuchi Baolin patted Cheng Chuliang's shoulder with a smile, "It was not until Cheng Laoer came back to say that Princess Changle refused to come to Luo Mansion to attend the banquet, which finally aroused my suspicion."

Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, he continued, "Didn't you notice that Princess Changle has been deliberately avoiding... No, to be precise, she was deliberately avoiding Luo Taisui when we were there?"

The so-called words awaken the dreamer.

Cheng Chuliang suddenly said, "It seems that this is true when you say this."

Fang Yi said straight: "I have never seen them appear on the same occasion at the same time."

Qin Shidao nodded and said, "Every time Deputy Envoy Luo rests, Princess Changle will appear. We naturally think that this is the chief and the deputy envoy takes turns to be on duty...

Thinking about it now, even if you take turns to be on duty, you will not have any contact at all.”

"And..." Du Gou added: "If Princess Changle didn't know Deputy Envoy Luo and didn't have any understanding of his abilities, how could he have just joined him as Deputy Envoy of the Imperial City Department?"

"Wang Xiaojie?" Cheng Chuliang suddenly thought of this "transparent person".

In my impression, Luo Taisui was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department, which was the contact between Princess Changle through this person.

However, Wang Xiaojie was not present at this time. After he left the Luo Mansion, he parted ways with the children of the ministers.

"Do we want to find him now?" Cheng Chuliang said with a slight storm.

Yuchi Baolin waved her hand calmly: "No need to ask him, I dare to conclude that there must be something wrong with this."

"However..." Cheng Chusi said he couldn't understand, "For what reason Changle had to avoid Deputy Envoy Luo?"

"I don't know this, but..." Yuchi Baolin looked at Changsun Chong intentionally or unintentionally, and then said: "I understand a little bit what Luo Taisui tried his best to bring us together."

"Speak quickly!" Cheng Chuliang urged.

"Meeting gift!"

Yuchi Baolin said this.

Everyone was stunned.

"What kind of meeting gift? Who's meeting gift?" Cheng Chuliang asked in his head.

Yuchi Baolin looked at him and said, "Of course it is a gift for Princess Changle."

"This..." Cheng Chuliang was stunned: "You mean... Luo Shazi packed us all in one go and wanted to give it to Changle as a gift..."

After pausing, he called out again: "This is too ridiculous!"

"Is it ridiculous?" Qin Shidao pondered: "When you think about it carefully, what Pauline said is not unreasonable..."

Cheng Chuliang shouted: "What is the reason? Why can't I see it?"

Qin Shidao smiled and said, "I'll ask you, who are we from the Imperial City Department for?"

"Of course it's Changle." Cheng Chuliang said without thinking.

"Where is the deputy envoy of Luo?" Qin Shidao was very good at inducing.

"How do I know...wait!" Cheng Chuliang suddenly realized, "Is it because of Changle that he joined the Imperial City Department?"

"That's right."

Qin Shidao sorted out his thoughts and said, "It's better that Baolin is careful. We did miss a Princess Changle. Du Gou, what do you think?"

Du Gou slowly raised his gaze: "If Deputy Envoy Luo's plan is compared to a puzzle, Princess Changle is the only missing piece.

But now it's complete."

"Hey... you have something to say, don't make a puzzle for me!" Cheng Chuliang felt a mess.

"This is not difficult to understand." Du Gou laughed silently and explained patiently: "It is indeed impossible for us to run a business in partnership to form a clique for personal gain, but it is different if we only follow the leader of Princess Changle.

First of all, Princess Changle represents the royal family, and we are actually serving the emperor.

Secondly, Princess Changle is not a prince, and she has no motivation to fight for the throne and will not attract unnecessary suspicion.

This is the same principle as the Imperial City Department can exist.”
