The factory guards only obey orders from Zhu Yuanzhang, and no one else can be mobilized. But now that Zhu Yuanzhang is not in Xuzhou, but such a big thing has happened, Zhu Mingwu can't contact Zhu Yuanzhang for the time being, so he can only report this information to Military Master Fan first.
increase.
"This is to inform the military advisor. The commander of the factory guards, Zhu Wuwu, has important information to report."
Fan Zeng frowned when he heard this. The factory guard was under the direct control of his lord and was not under his control. However, after his lord left, he also entrusted all the affairs to him, so even this was not considered an overstep.
"What information?" Fan Zeng asked.
"Secret No. 1 has been broken through."
"What?"
Fan Zeng was there immediately, and then he showed a happy face and said: "Hurry up and bring it up."
"promise."
Fan Zeng took the letter and read it carefully, but gradually, his face became more and more ugly.
The information in Fan Zeng's hands was actually revealed by Zhang Liang on purpose. Although the content in it was not much, it was extremely critical and related to an ancient secret. That is:
How did Zhang Liang and others escape from Qin Hao's imprisonment?
After the Battle of Hanshui, Zhang Liang, Long Qie, Ji Bu and Yu Ziqi were all captured by Qin Hao, but in the end they all escaped intact.
Regarding this matter, Zhang Liang claimed that the jailers were not strict enough, and they accidentally escaped through a loophole. But imagine how could Qin Hao, a spy of Zhang Liang's level, make such a low-level mistake?
Regarding this, Fan Zeng had doubts, but after searching, he could not find any useful clues. Whenever he was about to make an important breakthrough, there was always an invisible hand behind him that would cut off the clues, allowing Fan Zeng to return to the starting point again.
, but unexpectedly found a breakthrough at this time.
As for the source of this information, it was one of Ji Bu's concubines who said that Ji Bu had made too many drunken remarks when he was drunk. He said that they did not escape by themselves, but were released by Qin Hao on his own initiative.
, Shangguan Haitang, the secret agent of Hou Xuanzi, finally passed on this information after almost nine deaths, so the credibility of this information is very high.
After Fan Zeng learned about this, his heart suddenly became extremely heavy. This information did not seem to have much content, but it could analyze a lot of things.
First of all, as an official of the Han Dynasty, why did Qin Hao take the initiative to release the four Zhang Liang of the Ming Dynasty?
Secondly, who is so proud that Qin Hao can take the initiative to release the four of them?
In the end, what was the premeditated fight between the two parties? Let Qin Hao take such a big risk to release the four people?
…
Fan Zeng didn't know any of this, but he was convinced of one thing, that is, there was a shocking secret within the Ming court. Only a few people including Emperor Ming Zhang Liang knew about it, but it was hidden from everyone including Zhu Yuanzhang, and this secret was hidden from everyone including Zhu Yuanzhang.
Once the secret breaks out, it may overturn the entire Ming Dynasty.
At this thought, Fan Zeng couldn't help but become more anxious and more eager to decipher this secret and what Emperor Ming and Zhang Liang were hiding.
"The period when Zhang Liang escaped from Qin Hao was the most difficult period for the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had just experienced the defeat of Sizhou, and even the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao had fallen.
Emperor Ming, who had just ascended the throne, had difficulty convincing the public. If it were not for the full support of Zhang Liang and others who fled back, the Ming Dynasty might have fallen by then.
Since Qin Hao took the initiative to let Zhang Liang and the others go back, it proved that sending them back would be more beneficial to Qin Hao. However, at that time, Qin Hao was still just the governor of Nanyang. Even if he wanted to support the self-respect of the bandits, he would not get much benefit, and he would only gain.
Will it be the Ming Dynasty?
So, what considerations did Qin Hao have in letting Zhang Liang and others go back so that the Ming Dynasty, which is almost extinct, can continue?"
The more Fan Zeng thought about it, the more questions he found, which gave him a headache. However, he had a vague hunch in his heart that the direction he speculated was correct. If he continued to pursue this direction, he would be far away.
The truth is not far away.
"If Qin Hao could risk rebellion and take the initiative to release the general Zhang Liang, Qin Hao would definitely gain great benefits from it. So who was the person who traded with Qin Hao at that time?
Could it be His Majesty Emperor Ming?"
At this thought, Fan Zeng shook his head subconsciously. At that time, Emperor Ming did not have much power in his hands. Everything relied on Zhu Yuanzhang's support and assistance, and he was not qualified to trade with Qin Hao.
Fan Zeng found that his thinking was limited. Why did he only doubt people in the Ming court at that time? Why was it only limited to living people? Dead people could also trade with Qin Hao?
Thinking of this, Fan Zeng also began to broaden his mind, but he thought of a person who had been dead for a long time.
"Could it be that he is a great teacher?"
Fan Zeng himself was shocked when this idea came up, but only by incorporating Zhang Jiao into it can all these things be connected in a reasonable way.
Fan Zeng locked himself up and meditated hard for a while. When he came out, his half-white hair had turned gray, and his whole person became sluggish. Only his eyes became more energetic.
.
"That's right, it must be Zhang Jiao, and he is the only one who can impress Qin Hao.
Zhang Jue made two preparations before his death. He placed his hope on two people, one was Emperor Ming and the other Qin Hao.
Zhang Jiao must have bet on Ming Dynasty to let Qin Hao release Zhang Liang so that Ming Dynasty could get a chance.
In the subsequent decisive battle between the Han and Ming dynasties, if Emperor Ming had won, there would be no need to use a backhand or retreat into the Three Mountains.
But if he loses, if Qin Hao can dominate the world in the future, Zhang Jiao will still win."
At this thought, Fan Zeng couldn't help but smile bitterly. He actually looked down on Zhang Jiao in his heart. After all, Zhang Jiao had always been a puppet of hundreds of families, but he didn't expect that such a puppet would include him in the plan he led before his death.
Everyone was deceived.
"If these are true, then..."
Fan Zeng's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "No, my lord is in danger."
Fan Zeng immediately wrote quickly. After he finished writing, he quickly summoned Zhu Wuwu and said with great seriousness: "Immediately activate all the secrets in the Ming court to ensure the safety of the lord. In addition, this letter must be handed over as soon as possible."
Lord."
"promise."
Looking at Zhu Wuwen's leaving figure, Fan Zeng said to himself in a deep voice: "I hope I can still make it in time."
At the same time, another shocking change occurred in the Ming court in Jizhou.
What Zhu Yuanzhang never expected was that in a court meeting that he did not participate in, most of the officials agreed to agree to the proposal of marriage to King Qin, and Emperor Ming, who had never expressed his opinion, actually nodded in agreement this time.
