Chapter 128 Private Agreement
Chapter 128 Private Agreement
June 26th, Prince Yan’s Palace.
Ten days passed and Chu Tiancheng still ignored Wu Congshan, while Wu Congshan went from wanting to get the candy to being like an ant on hot pot.
He Fugui laughed so hard when he heard Zhu Shijie's vivid description of how Wu Congshan waited until he fainted in the middle of the night.
"This old guy thought the prince would beg him, no way!"
At this time, Zhou Zihan walked in from outside the door, looking exhausted.
He looked a little exhausted, but there was a hint of excitement and anticipation on his face.
His clothes were covered in dust and his hair was a little messy, as if he had just experienced a long and difficult journey.
Despite this, Zhou Zihan's eyes were still full of firmness and determination.
Everyone greeted Zhou Zihan.
He looked at He Fugui, he was still laughing, was it that funny?
"Mr. He, please be serious and talk about business."
"Yes, yes, Lord Zhou, you go ahead." He Fugui held back his laughter.
Zhou Zihan reported to Chu Tiancheng on the construction of the granary.
During these ten days, he hardly slept and was always in a state of tension and busyness.
He took his men and conducted careful investigation and planning one by one according to all the points marked by Chu Tiancheng on the map.
Then they quietly built granaries in these places.
Each granary is carefully designed and built, taking into account not only the capacity to store grain but also its safety and concealment.
In order not to attract other people's attention, they chose to carry out construction at night or in remote places to avoid being discovered as much as possible.
After unremitting efforts, all the granaries were finally built. Now, they just need to wait for Chu Tiancheng's order to start storing food.
"Your Majesty, there are fifteen in total, and they have all been built."
"Okay!" Chu Tiancheng patted Zhou Zihan on the shoulder, "Thank you, cousin!"
Zhou Zihan is the child of Chu Tiancheng's uncle, so they are naturally cousins.
Chu Tiancheng pulled Zhou Zihan to sit in front of the coffee table and drink tea.
Zhou Zihan looked up and saw Zuo Qingyun sitting quietly at another table, flipping through a stack of documents in front of him with a focused expression.
These are the intelligence recently provided by informants from the south. Zuo Qingyun carefully reviewed each report, not missing any details.
Suddenly, he looked up and said to Chu Tiancheng: "Your Majesty, why are there so many grain and grass transfers from the Southern Kingdom?"
Chu Tiancheng leaned over to take a look, "What's going on?"
"According to this intelligence, the amount of food and fodder transferred from the southern country to the southeastern border seems to far exceed the actual demand."
Zuo Qingyun frowned as he looked at the information in his hand:
“War is often accompanied by various uncertainties, and food and fodder are important guarantees for the survival of the army.
Are they preparing for a protracted war? Or do they have other plans?"
Zuo Qingyun pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice and said:
"Is there a possibility that Xiao Yifei and Chu Tianxing colluded and had a private agreement in advance?
Xiao Yifei thought Chu Tianxing would become the head coach, and he had already agreed to provide Chu Tianxing with food and grass? "
Chu Tiancheng and Zhu Shijie looked at each other. Zhu Shijie frowned, thought for a moment, nodded, and said:
"Given Chu Tianxing's character, he will not give up until he achieves his goal, and it is very likely that he will do something like this."
Zhou Zihan suddenly said: "Does that mean Xiao Yifei doesn't know that King Yan is the head coach here?"
He Fugui's eyes lit up, "Then can we pretend to be Chu Tianxing and collect this batch of grain?"
Zhu Shijie glared at He Fugui and said, "What are you talking about? You are only thinking about the benefits of food. If you are not careful, Chu Tianxing might accuse you of collaborating with the enemy."
He Fugui thought about it and said, "That's right."
Chu Tiancheng looked at Zuo Qingyun, "Is there any way to find evidence of Chu Tianxing and Xiao Yifei colluding?"
"Why not contact Gu Yidao and try?" Zuo Qingyun suggested.
"You can try it." Chu Tiancheng nodded.
He walked to the desk, wrote a secret letter, turned around and told Yan Yi, "Send a message to Gu Yidao through our channels."
"Yes." Yan Yi accepted the order.
Two days later, Yuncheng.
Gu Yidao received a secret letter from Chu Tiancheng: find a way to get evidence of collusion between Chu Tianxing and Xiao Yifei.
During this period, Gu Yidao and his family of three lived in an independent courtyard in the Prince's Mansion.
Xiao Yifei just considered it as feeding three mouths for free, and he didn't have to worry about daily food, clothing and expenses.
Xiao Yifei knew that Gu Yidao would not be used by him, but he never expected that Qin Rubing had already subdued him.
I just thought he was at the end of his rope and wouldn't have any other thoughts, so I didn't take any special precautions against him.
Gu Yidao began to quietly search for clues in the Prince's Mansion.
