Chapter 326 Who is the traitor
The news of Gao Xiaofeng's return suddenly spread all over the imperial city. Although the ministers didn't say anything, they knew what was going on, but they didn't know who did it.
Ji Liunian still let Gao Xiaofeng live in the general's mansion. In order to make up for General Gao, Ji Liunian rewarded him 20,000 gold in the court, envying many people who really pursue money and fame.
"Gao Xiaofeng, can you go back and find the place where you are closed now?"
"I remember it clearly, but now we can't find them when we go back. They have left, so they are not stupid enough to wait for us to catch them."
"That's true. I have been itching in my heart. I feel that there is a hidden danger buried and has not been exposed, and I feel uncomfortable.
"Then I'll help you with this matter. After that, I will really retire, haha." Gao Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"The position can be retired, but as long as you live one day, I will use you for a day. I don't have a rest, but you are thinking about taking a rest. Did you get a few more concubines and rush to go..."
"Don't laugh at me. OK, as long as I'm still alive, I'll help you for a day. I'm afraid you will dislike my old bones."
After Cheng Qian arrived there, he occasionally wrote to Ji Liunian to report the situation there. Although the situation there was relatively difficult, Cheng Qian overcame it one by one. Thinking of Cheng Qian far away, Ji Liunian felt safe. The traitor had let him go. Ji Liunian just wanted this effect.
Ji Liunian has been guessing who this person is? In fact, she had been aware of it for a long time, but he had never shown his feet. Ji Liunian couldn't believe that he did it.
This person is Lord Chen. Lord Chen was directly promoted by Ji Liunian, that is, because of his relationship, his brothers have relied on him, and his business is booming.
Ji Liunian is looking at his talent and his harmony. Lord Chen is very popular and everyone likes him. At Ji Liunian's birthday parties, Lord Chen gave Ji Liunian very valuable gifts. These gifts are rare famous paintings, and Ji Liunian likes them very much. So when he said he liked Chen Min, Ji Liunian asked him to marry Chen Min without saying anything.
The wealth of the Chen family once aroused the jealousy of many people, and some people once secretly reminded Ji Liunian to cut off the power of the Chen family, but Ji Liunian did not take it in his heart. At that time, the Ji family was extremely rich. Ji Liunian felt that the wealth of the Chen family was the result of their efforts, and he did not have the right to cut it.
At this time, Ji Liunian thought of Lord Chen because he felt that his daughter had been wronged because of Cheng Qian's affairs. His hope was invail, and he inevitably felt resentful. Second, it is because the power of the Chen family has become stronger. No one in the imperial city can have such strength and financial resources as him.
So Ji Liunian asked Gao Xiaofeng to investigate Lord Chen.
"I also think he is suspicious, but since you have always valued him, I didn't say anything. It's easy for me to check. Although I don't command the three armies now, several powerful subordinates still listen to me. Don't worry."
Ji Liunian nodded and felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.
Gao Xiaofeng asked someone to check, but there was no result. Lord Chen did not recruit troops, nor did he have any contact with the six generals, and it was even rumored that he did not have a particularly good relationship with the two generals. On the surface, it can't be seen that Lord Chen has any rebellious heart.
"Do I think too much?"
"Last time I lent money to Cheng Qian, it was just because Cheng Qian was a prince and his son-in-law. I don't think Lord Chen has a rebellious heart. On the contrary, he seems to be very low-key, cautious, non-partisan, and has no loopholes at all.
"I know. It seems that I think too much. But will anyone else do such a thing besides him? Ji Liunian is very puzzled.
"I don't know. I wish I could find those two guys who tied me up. These two people must know who they are. I'm also confused. Don't be in a hurry to leave after returning to freedom. Let's tie them up.
"You have been tied up for almost a month. What's the strength?" Ji Liunian gave Gao Xiaofeng a white look.
"The two of them are okay with me and fed me a lot of mountain rats. So you see, I'm recovering as before. Gao Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"It seems that they are not bad for you. This person doesn't really hate you, but he is not satisfied with all your military power." Ji Liunian wanted to break his head and couldn't figure out who this person was.
Gao Xiaofeng is also very surprised.
"I don't think they hit me, but hit me on the head with wood when they started to catch me." Gao Xiaofeng also couldn't figure out who this person was.
In fact, if they knew that Cheng Zun was still alive, they would know who this person was.
Cheng Zun was not jealous of Gao Xiaofeng, but afraid that Gao Xiaofeng would be old and not be busy in the future, so he pulled him down and cultivated the newcomer when Ji Liunian was in good health.
Cheng Zun first found the fat man and the thin man, and then followed Gao Xiaofeng. After waiting for half a month, he finally found the opportunity. Cheng Zun immediately asked the two people to intercept Gao Xiaofeng on the road.
As for getting Gao Xiaofeng to the mountain, this also means Cheng Zun. Cheng Zun knew that as soon as Gao Xiaofeng disappeared, Ji Liunian would immediately send someone to look for him. This mountain is relatively secretive.
At the beginning, Cheng Zun let the two of them scare Gao Xiaofeng, slowly treated him better, and finally let him go. When Gao Xiaofeng came out, Cheng Zun was looking at him from behind.
"Grandpa, let's do a good job. Will the money be given to us now?" The thin man said with a smile.
Cong Zun gave them two silver ingots.
"You leave quickly. If he calls someone to arrest you, I don't care. He said that he would slip away when he finished. Every time I meet them, Cheng Zun wears a mask.
After wandering on the street for more than a month, Gao Xiaofeng finally met the fat man.
"That's him. Hurry up and catch him."
The fat man quickly slipped away, but was still caught by Gao Xiaofeng's men.
"Lightly, gently, it hurts me to death." The fat man also recognized Gao Xiaofeng.
"You let go, he can't run away. Tell me who asked you to tie me up?" Gao Xiaofeng said with a smile. After waiting for the rabbit for so long, it finally came to an end.
"Actually, I don't know who it is. We have only met him three times. Every time he is masked, we can't see his face clearly. He is a little taller than you, with long hair and white clothes. I don't know anything else."
"If you don't say it today, I will kill you." Gao Xiaofeng thought the fat man was cheating.
"I really don't know. I really don't know. General, you can do it. I'm good to you. You can't kill me." The fat man kowtowed to Gao Xiaofeng.
"Where did your accomplice go?"
"He went back to his hometown. We were found by the master together, and he didn't know the situation. We just take other people's money and work for others, which is also forced by life. General, just let me go. I have old and young..."
Gao Xiaofeng can't listen anymore. He knows that the fat man is afraid of death. There is only one reason why he doesn't tell the truth now, that is, he really doesn't know.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, let him go." Gao Xiaofeng thought he could find a breakthrough in this person, but he didn't expect that he didn't know anything and looked frustrated.
In the evening, Gao Xiaofeng told the news to Ji Liunian.
"This person is quite cautious in doing things. In this case, we can't check it."
"This clue has been broken, and we really can't check it. Emperor, give up."
"I think this white dress is so familiar. Why do people in white always appear..." Ji Liunian really can't figure it out. Is it done by Cheng Zun? Cheng Zun is not dead yet? This is impossible. I have gone in and verified it, and it is indeed Cheng Zun.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Gao Xiaofeng fell into meditation when he saw Ji Liunian.
"Nothing, you go back."
In the evening, Ji Liunian walked around the yard and then looked at the pear tree again and again.
"Nothing. Why did that white shadow disappear here? What the hell."
