Chapter 103 The Overwatch Council
"I'm sorry to have worked hard for my father-in-law, and I'll ask her to go back and tell the Empress on her behalf, and I'll tell you what she means. I've already understood it, so please rest assured."
"Okay!" the little eunuch nodded: "The villain will take his leave first."
"Xiaoyu, take this young father-in-law to the tent to pay fifty taels of silver." The noble lady said.
"Little father-in-law, please come here." The maid Xiaoyu stretched out her hand.
"Mrs. How can the villain be so embarrassed..."
"Young man, don't be polite." The noble lady smiled slightly and said politely.
"The villain thanked the prince and the husband of the country." The little eunuch said after the ceremony: "The villain gave up."
Xiaoyu was in front of him and led the eunuch out of the room, then gently closed the door again.
The lady sat back on the edge of the bed and said, "Master, why don't we fight or rob like before? Wouldn't this be fine?"
"Oh..." Lin Shicang sighed: "I was blinded by the immediate interests for a moment, thinking about the current Lu family..."
Speaking of this, Lin Shicang couldn't help but look up at the noble lady and said, "Did you blame your husband for not pleading for your Lu family?"
"Master, the Lu family has nothing to do with me anymore. Zhiqing has also paid back the love for me. I don't owe them any affection for the Lu family."
Lin Shicang was silent for a while. His wife, Lu Wanrou, was not born in the Lu family, and therefore suffered a lot of grievances in the Lu family.
When the Lu family agreed to marry Qin Wanrou to him, he was just a small sesame mung bean official and was not favored by the Lu family.
The officialdom has been ups and downs for decades, and he has gotten up step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step.
Although the Lu family has given it a little favor to support itself in recent years, isn’t it because their Lu family is doing it to strengthen its own power?
Therefore, Lin Shicang did not think he owed their Lu family anything, but instead hated their Lu family a little.
Thinking about this, he quickly thought of himself now. The Lin family is not like the Lu family before.
If I really like Lu Weizhi, I am greedy for power, I am afraid that my fate will be the same as him.
"Madam, let's listen to you. If we don't fight again in the future, we will live a peaceful and steadily."
"Yeah!" The lady nodded: "Zhiqing has been smart since she was a child. As long as we don't cause trouble for her, she will definitely be able to sit firmly in the back seat in the palace."
Lin Shicang nodded and agreed with Lu Wanrou's statement. He couldn't understand his daughter anymore, so he acted like a spoiled person...
hehe!
Thinking of this, Lin Shicang actually laughed.
The moon is dark outside the window and the wind is high.
A beautiful figure, wearing a black night clothes, was flying around the eaves and walls like a ghost, and ran towards the Imperial Capital Government Office.
She jumped gently from the eaves and landed in the government office. When she looked around, she quickly flashed into the government office lobby.
She originally wanted to kill a show girl and then sneak into the palace by impersonating her name. However, most of the people who entered the palace this time were famous families in the capital.
Even if she impersonated her name, she could not stand the investigation. That's why she thought of sneaking into the imperial capital, stealing the seal of the prefecture, and writing a letter of recommendation to herself.
If you talk about Tong Lingling's luck, it is definitely not a problem. As soon as she entered the government office, she found the seal that was usually carried by the prefect.
Through the black veil, you can see the smile on her face at this moment. She skillfully picked up the seal, put a few big seals on a few blank pieces of rice paper, then flashed out of the government office, jumped up, and disappeared into the darkness like a ghost.
Just as Tong Lingling was immersed in the joy of being able to successfully get the seal this time.
She never thought that all this was just a situation set up by Li Xiaoyao for her.
Tong Lingling had just left, and the imperial capital government office, which was originally uninhabited, was now standing dozens of yamen runners holding torches.
At this time, an old man with fair face and slightly white temples accompanied Wu Daozi to walk out of the backyard.
"Shangshu Wu, wouldn't it be enough to kill an assassin like this? Why bother to let her go into the palace?"
"Mr. Zhang, this is what Your Majesty means. You just need to do it." Wu Daozi reminded with a serious face: "Remember, you can't reveal any flaws."
"Please rest assured by Lord Shangshu, the minister promises that he will not delay His Majesty's major affairs."
"Okay! I should go back."
"The lower official sent him to the Minister of Shangshu."
"No."
Wu Daozi waved his hand, and then led several members of the secret guard wearing black brocade robes and a golden lotus embroidered on his chest to walk out of the Imperial Capital Government.
Today's secret guards have all been incorporated into the newly established supervisory office.
The current Supervisory Office is just a prototype, temporarily set to five locations.
One place was compiled by the Shadow Hall and Fengtang of the former Secret Security Organization, and was mainly responsible for collecting intelligence. However, they not only collect information from the Han Dynasty, but also slowly extend their tentacles to Chu and Zhao.
The second department is the original team of the former secret guard organization Killing Hall. Their main task is to be responsible for assassination.
The three places are composed of ten thousand black cavalry. Their mission is to suppress the rebellion of wealthy businessmen when Li Xiaoyao implemented reforms in the future.
Their task is to supervise all officials across the country, and they have the right to execute officials below the third rank if the evidence is conclusive.
Their mission is to mix into the major sects in the world, and there are no official members yet. However, Li Xiaoyao has ordered Ye Chen to gather a group of eight to twelve-year-old children at the Xuancheng base. When the time is right, they will be sent out.
Wu Daozi, who returned to his home, had just entered the living room when there was a burst of rapid footsteps outside the door.
A member of the group walked into the living room, bent down and bowed, "Sir, the Queen has just sent someone to Lin Mansion."
"What did you say?" Wu Daozi walked to the main seat, served a cup of tea, took a few sips before asking.
"Sir, the spies in Lin Mansion have been exposed, so I didn't hear anything they talked about. Also, should we take back those spies whose identities have been exposed?"
Wu Daozi thought for a while and found that most of these spies were members of Qianlong Guard under Empress Dowager Lu's former command.
Whether they truly surrender remains to be investigated.
"Let them stay where they are, as usual, do whatever they should do. After I report this to Your Majesty, let me see what your Majesty will arrange."
"Sir, if the spy is exposed, it has lost its meaning of existence. Otherwise, we..."
The member of the first place made a neck wiping action.
