On the carriage to Ziwei Palace, Lu Yun asked Zuo Yanqing.
"Did my father-in-law guess the truth?"
"As long as the information is sufficient, there is nothing in this world that cannot be guessed." Zuo Yanqing held his big black cat, with thin hands folded over his long and dense cat hair, and his villain style was full of villain. "The reason why you can't guess is because you don't understand some things."
"Then just say it." Lu Yun smiled bitterly, "It's such a close journey, you'll be there in the blink of an eye."
"Haha..." Zuo Yanqing stopped keeping his cover and smiled and said, "I'll tell you one thing, Youyan's Zhenbei Pass is no longer in the hands of the court."
"That's natural. Zhenbei Pass has always been from Pei's family." Lu Yun said for granted.
"Since last month, it's not in Pei's hands anymore," Zuo Yanqing said with a slight gust: "Who do you guess will be in?"
"Ah..." Lu Yun was in a panic and said in disbelief: "Then there is only one possibility left."
"Yes, Taiping Road." Zuo Yanqing nodded slightly and asked again: "What price do you think Taiping Road has to pay to make Pei Val give in to Zhenbei Pass?"
"The Jade Seal of the Kingdom..." Lu Yun slapped his head and understood everything. "It seems that he met his colleagues!"
"Oh?" Zuo Yanqing glanced at Lu Yun and said, "How do you say this?"
Lu Yun knew very well that he could hide his affairs from anyone, but he could not hide anything from Zuo Yanqing. Otherwise, it would affect his judgment and make him ignore the information that might be useful to him.
So he simply told Zuo Yanqing about the jade seal.
Zuo Yanqing also suddenly realized, "I felt that things were strange everywhere after Bailiuzhuang. It turned out that you were making trouble in it." As he said that, he raised his thumbs up and said, "Okay, you can play with so many great masters in your palm. For the first time, we believe that you might be able to accomplish anything."
"You didn't have confidence in me before you were old?" Lu Yun looked hurt.
"Do I have confidence?" the old eunuch sneered.
"It shouldn't be." Lu Yun smiled dejectedly and turned back to the topic: "Sun Yuanlang has never obtained the real jade seal from beginning to end, so what he gave to Pei Jia was just a fake."
"First of all, according to reliable information, Sun Yuanlang's whereabouts are unknown, and this matter was not his work." Zuo Yanqing said: "Secondly, the people of Taiping Road are not just exchanged for Zhenbei Pass for a jade seal."
After a pause, the old eunuch said with a heart-warming look: "They liberated the 200,000 Peijia army with one contract. The two will join forces in the future, and it is unpredictable to face the Xiahoujia."
"It turns out that Pei's ambition is not smaller than Xiahou's..." Lu Yun was scared when he heard this. He had focused all his attention on the body of the Chu Shi Emperor and Xiahou's, and almost forgot that there was a hungry wolf lying beside the tiger that chose people to eat!
"This is a good thing. The more people there will be, the more chaotic the situation will be. The more chaotic the situation will be, you will be able to take advantage of the situation." Zuo Yanqing felt that the carriage had obviously slowed down and knew that he would arrive at Ziwei Palace immediately. He said in a short story: "That's the situation, and you have to do it."
Lu Yun nodded slowly. With his thoughts, he had digested the amazing news. Indeed, Zuo Yanqing was right. Pei Valve joined in, which was only good and no harm to him - at least Pei Valve will not merge with Xiahou Valve, which is simply great news.
Then what is left is the decision, whether to let Pei Val and Xiahou Valve Dog bite the dog, or whether the Chu Emperor and Xiahou Valve Dog bite the dog.
Such a major decision could not be made in a hurry. Hearing the interrogation of Yulin Guards outside, Lu Yun lowered his voice and said to Zuo Yanqing: "Don't worry about anything else for now. When you meet the emperor later, you will say that the jade seal is real."
"Well, our family thinks the same way. The trust that Your Majesty and Pei's Vessel just established cannot withstand any destruction." Zuo Yanqing nodded with a smile. When the carriage entered Ziwei Palace, he continued to whisper: "By the way, don't worry that Xiahou Valve will know about Zhenbei Pass. This news is very well blocked by Pei's Vessel. Our family has only received the news from Taiping City."
"That's how..." Lu Yun nodded, but asked strangely: "I heard that the Taiping Taoists are very loyal. It's really unfathomable that my father-in-law can bribe them."
"I'm wrong, it's just a good fate planted in the past." Zuo Yanqing shook his head and said, "At that time, the ruler of Western Qin, I admired Taiping Road's feat of defending China's clothes outside the region. Not only did I allocate food, grass, soldiers and armor several times, but I also sent thousands of soldiers to the pass to help the war. Later, the Western Qin Dynasty canceled the national name and returned to the Xuan Dynasty. Many soldiers stayed in Taiping City and did not come back."
So this news was privately learned by Zuo Yanqing, not by the investigation by the Imperial Affairs Office... In fact, whether it is the court, the various lords, were obsessed with the Central Plains and the spy on the various lords' territories, and almost no one would pay attention to Taiping City far away from the pass.
After a moment, the carriage stopped in front of Changle Gate, the main gate of the inner palace. Lu Yun helped Zuo Yanqing get out of the car. The two stopped talking and came to Changle Hall silently. Lu Yuntong reported that, Du Hui immediately opened the door of the hall and let Zuo Yanqing in.
When he approached the hall, Zuo Yanqing let go of his hand, and the black cat in his arms fell silently to the ground, disappearing into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
The gate of the hall was slowly closed, and Lu Yun stood under the Yuetai platform in front of the hall, and took his Qianniu Guard to keep a close watch.
.
In Changle Hall.
Zuo Yanqing claimed his guilt, carefully held up the jade seal with both hands, and put it under the light to observe carefully for a while. Fang looked at Baba and said to him:
"That's right, it's the one that Lao Nu has seen in Jinling."
"Oh? Really?" Chu Shidi asked subconsciously.
"Really, Your Majesty, please see." Zuo Yanqing pointed to the gold-inlaid interface and said: "There are many fine lines here under the light, which are the traces of the Queen Mother of the Western Wei Dynasty falling. Craftsmen can repair a corner that collapsed, but cannot remove the cracked lines."
Then he heard Zuo Yanqing speak out and say: "At that time, the old slave was more careful and counted it over. There were three long and six short lines and nine large lines. No matter how skilled craftsman is, he cannot imitate it."
"Oh?" The Emperor of Chu snatched the jade seal and waved to Du Hui to hold the palace lantern in front of him. He then put the lights together and counted the patterns at the joints. "One, two, three... Seven, eight, nine..."
"It's really three long and six short, nine stripes!" The initial emperor was ecstatic and almost jumped up excitedly.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" Zuo Yanqing hurriedly knelt on his face and thought to himself that would not match it? I just counted it. "This jade seal of the kingdom is a clear proof of His Majesty's destiny!"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty..." Du Hui also knelt down.
