Chapter 157 Yuan Fang Returns

In the capital city of Yan State, Song Mansion, Song Jiuming's study was closed.

The housekeeper Liu Lu wandered in the courtyard, looking at the closed door from time to time.

Outside the courtyard, Song Quan, who was wearing an official uniform, came striding forward. He had just returned from get off work in the government office, and he hadn't returned his clothes. When he came, he asked, "What's the matter? I heard that my father locked himself in the study for a long time and didn't come out?"

Liu Lu said in a low voice: "Received the news that the staff assigned by the Intelligence Department at the station of the Six Nations was suddenly attacked by the Six Nations, and it seems that the loss is not small."

The Song family has eyes and ears in various countries.

Song Quan was taken aback, "How could this happen? Didn't your father be involved?" After all, it was his father's idea to use the intelligence department personnel, and the damage to the intelligence networks planted in various countries is no small matter.

Liu Lu: "The specific situation is unknown. The imperial court in Qingshan County suffered a loss at the hands of the king of Yongping County, and another incident happened to the Intelligence Department. You can imagine His Majesty's mood. I heard that Mo Bing was scolded by His Majesty. The master immediately went to the school affairs desk to ask Mo Bing for the specific situation, but was rejected."

The school affairs desk is actually the spy department of Yan State, but it cannot be called the spy department to the outside world, and Mo Bing is the person in charge of the school affairs desk and the commander of the spy department.

Song Quan said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Mo Bing still wants his father to take this responsibility? Everyone is not a fool. Even if my father is still in office, he has no right to use people from the Intelligence Department. The Intelligence Department is in the hands of His Majesty. How could this matter be possible without His Majesty's nod! Didn't Father go to find the Prime Minister?"

Liu Lu: "After the school affairs desk was shut down, the master immediately went to Sikong's mansion, but Da Sikong's attitude this time is a bit ambiguous."

Song Quan: "What do you mean? The Intelligence Department didn't do a good job, so you can blame your father for it?"

Liu Lu: "Of course you can't blame the master, and you can't blame the master publicly, but the problem lies here. The old slave asked the master about the situation. The master asked the prime minister at the time, who had been dealt with when the spy department happened, and wanted to know the situation on Mo Bing's side, and what the school affairs desk meant. Who knew that the prime minister said that the spy department had no faults, and avoided greater losses in time, so the master should not worry about it anymore."

Song Quan was a little confused and asked, "What do you mean, isn't this very good?"

Liu Lu: "How can it be good? The intelligence department has made a contribution but has no faults. This conclusion has a big problem. At least it shows that the intelligence department knows where the problem is. It is reasonable to say such a thing. Where there is a problem, it should be held accountable. However, the problem cannot be pursued!"

They were all gangsters inside the imperial court, Song Quan suddenly realized, and said solemnly: "Someone blocked and suppressed this matter?"

Liu Lu nodded: "At least this person's influence in the court and on the Prime Minister's side will not be lower than that of the master."

Song Quan fully understood that the damage to the foreign intelligence network is not a trivial matter, and someone must take responsibility.

Those are the people involved in this matter. The Intelligence Department has no faults. His Majesty cannot be at fault. The rest are the people who bewitched this matter. It is self-evident!

Song Quanquan showed a hideous expression, "Someone is stepping on my father's guarantor!"

Liu Lu comforted: "Master Xiang should still protect the master!"

"Fuck you, my father has already stepped down. Wouldn't it be a joke to say that a person who has lost his official position instigated the intelligence department? There is no way to openly pursue the responsibility of father, but some people put the responsibility on father."

Song Quan suddenly looked back at the closed door of the study, finally understood his father's mood, gritted his teeth and said, "It's a good one who has no faults, but I want to see who is protecting who! It's okay if you have no faults, but you still have merit!"

Liu Lu bowed his head sadly. The person who made the move was indeed a bit ruthless in order to protect the person. Not only did he want to protect the person, but he also wanted to protect the future of the person he protected in this kind of thing.

In other words, if you can do things like this, you can imagine the determination of the person who works hard to protect someone's future. They won't let people find out about the spy department to hinder the future of the person they protect. Whoever suffers from this crime will have to carry it all the time. Unless there are special circumstances, you won't be given a chance to reverse the case.

"I said at the beginning that I shouldn't resign from the position of Tingwei easily, but my father believed Tong Mo's nonsense, otherwise who would dare to take it so easily!" Song Quan shook his sleeves indignantly. To him, he was also in trouble. No one knew that he was Song Jiuming's son. In this kind of open and secret fighting, the other party had already laid a ruthless hand on his father, so how could he give him a chance to grow up and fight back.

Liu Lu hurriedly said: "The wall has ears, sir, be careful with your words!"

Song Quan came closer, and said in a low voice, "This matter must not be leaked, otherwise the tree will fall and the monkeys will disperse immediately!"

However, as soon as the words were said here, a person came from outside the courtyard, holding a letter in his hand, with a sullen face, it was Song Shu.

Song Quan and Liu Lu looked at him. Song Shu walked up to them, handed out the letter, and said with a sullen face, "Wang Heng just sent someone to take his daughter away by force. This is Wang Heng's own letter, saying that her daughter is still young. Parents can't bear to see her daughter remain a widow. I hope the Song family will issue a document allowing his daughter to remarry!"

Song Quan received the letter and opened it for a look. The content of the letter was as it was. Although the words between the lines expressed the hope that the Song family would have some sympathy, the tone was not room for negotiation.

After Liu Lu took the letter and read it, his face was as tense as Song Quan's.

Wang Heng wanted to sever ties with the Song family at this time, it seemed that His Majesty's close minister already knew something, which was equivalent to confirming their judgment from the side.

Wang Heng asked his daughter to remarry, which is nothing in normal times, but for the Song family at this time, it is simply a disaster. What do people think when they see it?

However, the Song family didn't dare to refuse. If the Song family didn't agree, Wang Heng would make a fuss, which would make the Song family lose face. Didn't Wang Heng want to do this?

"Check it out and see who made the move, and who is protecting it! Also, see if we can find a way to find out what's wrong with the intelligence department!" Song Quan gritted his teeth with a livid face, already feeling the signs of a storm coming.

When Song Shu heard it, he also realized that Wang Heng's matter was not that simple, and asked doubtfully, "What's going on?"

The sunset is infinitely good, but it is almost dusk.

Qingshan County, the county town, the setting sun was setting, and Shang Shuqing, who was wearing a veil, was hovering at the top of the city, looking at the way from time to time.

There was news here that Yuan Fang had returned to the Canglu County Villa early in the morning, but Yuan Fang was the only one who came back. And Yuanfang, who was empty in Canglu County, rushed to Qingshan County immediately, counting the time, using the fast horses at the post station in Qingshan County along the way, he should be able to arrive in the evening.

Shang Shuqing has been at the top of the city for an hour, wandering around, waiting in advance.

She didn't know what it meant that Yuan Fang came back alone, what about Niu Youdao? Is something wrong?

However, Yuanfang would not tell the people below everything, and the news reported from Canglu County naturally contained no unreasonable news.

There was a cloud of dust and smoke in the distance, and a fast horse appeared in sight. Shang Shuqing stared at it, her eyes gradually revealed joy, and she gradually saw clearly that it was Yuan Fang.

Naturally, the fast horse couldn't directly break into the city, stopped in front of the city gate, and heard a gentle and familiar voice shouting from the city: "Master Yuan Fang!"

Yuan Fang looked up and grinned, "Princess!"

Needless to say, I entered the city and went up the city wall without hindrance.

Seeing Yuanfang's dusty appearance, Shang Shuqing said dignifiedly and politely: "The presidency has been hard all the way."

"It's okay." Yuan Fang cheerfully waved his hand.

Shang Shuqing stretched out her hand and invited him to rest inside the tower.

After entering the room to serve tea, Shang Shuqing retreated from the servants, and only after Yuan Fang put down the teacup in his hand did he ask, "Why is only the host coming back, where is the Daoist?"

Yuan Fang said casually, "The lord has severed ties with the Daoist, how can the Daoist come back openly."

Shang Shuqing was silent for a while, and asked again: "Could it be that Master Dao is back, but he didn't show up?"

Yuan Fang waved his hand: "No, Master Dao still has something to do, he is dealing with a bunch of thieves, he has no time to come back, let me come back first."

"Dog thief?" Shang Shuqing asked anxiously, "What happened?"

Yuan Fang slapped his thigh, "It's a serious matter. The Song family sent three masters to chase and kill us. Not only the Song family, but also the Yan Kingdom court sent a large number of people to chase and intercept the Daoist Lord. We are risking our lives along the way. Thankfully, the Taoist master is brilliant, otherwise we would have gone to see the Buddha long ago!"

Shang Shuqing's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, she leaned forward slightly while sitting, and asked, "What's going on?"

Unexpectedly, Yuan Fang scratched his head, "Master Dao said, don't tell anyone about the itinerary, otherwise it will be more dangerous, princess, don't make things difficult for me."

"..." Shang Shuqing was speechless, she was not that kind of person, since people said she couldn't say it, she was not easy to force her.

It's just that Yuan Fang didn't talk about it, which made her more worried, why the Song family sent three sects of masters to chase and kill, and why even the Yan Kingdom court sent a large number of people to chase and intercept, just listening to it makes people panic, how dangerous it is!

"Since it's dangerous, why didn't Master Dao come back and let you come back alone?" Shang Shuqing asked again.

Yuan Fang: "Master Dao said, it's not rude to come and go, and I'm wrestling with them. In fact, I don't want to come back, but I can't help it. I have to help Master Dao rescue soldiers."

Shang Shuqing: "But do you want to ask people from Tianyumen to help?" If this is the case, she is going to ask for help.

Yuan Fang waved his hand: "No, we can't wait until the people from Tianyumen arrive. The Daoist has already sent people to contact the Six Kingdoms to help. I am in charge of the Zhao country. I have finished my work. Now it is difficult to contact the Daoist. I will come back first according to the Daoist's order."

Shang Shuqing was stunned for a moment, manpower from the six countries? Are you in charge of Zhao Guo?

Always talking about the country, he didn't know how big things Yuan Fang had done for a while, let alone how big things Niu Youdao was doing.

"Princess, I heard that people from my temple have also moved in. I have to go and check their homework, don't be lazy if I'm not here!" Yuan Fang grabbed the teacup and drank it vigorously, got up and left without saying a word.

Shang Shuqing, who followed and stood up, was speechless. It was really urgent to say this unclearly.

But judging from Yuanfang's relaxed attitude, it seemed that Niu Youdao could handle it, so she felt a little relieved.
