Song An continued to analyze, "Duke Wei and the young master are brothers and have deep feelings, so naturally they will not make such a bad plan to plot against the young master... Han Ming Banyuetan belongs to the General's Mansion, editor-in-chief Chen Zilong... There are all adults who are watching, right? As for the three major academys, the military academy will definitely not be involved in this matter. In the past, Lin Wei reported that there was no military academy to participate in the parade... Jiangnan Academy was in charge, and it was even more impossible. Only the business school... But I haven't heard that the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce was involved in it. As for the weaver department, it was even more impossible! In my opinion, only the emperor has the motivation, and it is in line with what the young master said. He is most afraid of the two dynasties going to war!"

"What's the reason?" Wu Zheng slowly guided.

Song An thought for a while and said, "If the Northern Expedition Army wins the decisive battle, the young master's reputation will be at its peak, and his achievements will shock the master. The emperor will naturally be afraid... If the Northern Expedition Army is defeated, the enemy will be unstoppable and the Yingtian Mansion will be the first to be the brunt of it. How can the emperor not be afraid...?"

Song An's words became smoother and smoother, "Although the family still hopes to fight the Northern Expedition and regain the mountains and rivers, according to the reputation and power of the young master at this time, the Northern Expedition was successful, if..."

Speaking of this, Song An paused, but still said: "If the young master has made great contributions and relied on his own, the Ming Dynasty will face greater challenges... Therefore, once the Qing court declared war on the court, the emperor could only change his original plan, and put the internal and external forces to resist the Qing army's invasion first. Only in this way can the marchers in nearly thirty palaces suddenly disappear within three or five days."

"Why did the emperor organize a march of such a large scale before and advocate the continued Northern Expedition? What is the intention?"

Song An thought for a long time this time, and Yu Ruisan replied, "Everyone knows that the young master did not agree with the court and the emperor to negotiate with the enemy in private... On the contrary, the envoy behind the march praised the young master, but in fact, he made the young master arbitrarily open to the public... Yes, this must be the case. Only in this way can the young master's reputation be destroyed calmly, making countless foolish people think that the young master is promoting peace with the Qing court!"

Wu Zheng raised his head and chuckled, "Where is the evidence?"

Song An bowed and said, "Don't worry, young master, I'll go check it myself!"

Wu Zheng nodded with satisfaction, "That's right! Boldly guess and be careful to prove... Don't wrongly a good person, and don't let a bad person go... Hangzhou Prefecture also has to investigate secretly. If this happens, it proves that someone has put his tentacles into our old nest. You have to be careful... You should relax your horizons, and after confirmation, slowly shrink the range of doubts, and finally pull out this hand!"

"yes."

Wu Zheng nodded and said, "Be gentler, don't be shocked by anyone... You also said that now that foreign enemies are invading, and the war is in progress, this matter is starting, which is not good for the situation... But we have to know in our hearts who is stumbling behind the scenes, what is their purpose? When the time is right, we will settle the old and new accounts together... Do you understand?"

"yes!"

....

Tianjin, Sanchakou Wharf.

A bloody battle is breaking out at this time.

At least a thousand people were fighting wildly on the dock.

The reason why it is called Sanchakou is that it is located at the intersection of the North and South Canals.

Tianjin gradually developed from a salt field in the Tang Dynasty to a "Salt Garden" in the Liao Dynasty, and then became the Zhigu Village of the Song Dynasty and Haijin Town of the Yuan Dynasty. Finally, it was decided by Zhu Di, and it was called Tianjin, which indeed occupied the light of the Grand Canal.

Prince Shuo Chengze, who was Fulin's brother Shuo Sai, had his entire face blue at this time.

He regretted it in his heart that he underestimated the enemy too much.

Shuo Se came in person and only brought dozens of personal guards. He thought that it was just a traitor who had gone south to surrender to the enemy. It was enough to have three hundred garrisons on the wharf.

Unexpectedly, I kicked the iron plate.

People have been sent to transfer reinforcements from the city, but at least one hour is needed to arrive. This one hour is enough for the traitor to sail dozens of miles on a boat.

Now that the Qing army is heading south, he has successively recovered lost territory, but the Qing court is still unable to control the Grand Canal. As long as the traitor takes a boat to enter the Shandong boundary of the Grand Canal, it will be beyond the reach of it.

In this way, the credit that the original Grand Secretary Hong Chengchou gave him turned into a hot potato in a blink of an eye.

Shuo Sai was annoyed and shouted sternly at the cavalry behind him: "Roar up, if you let the traitor go today, you... don't even think about living!"

....

Shen Wenkui is still ten feet away from the ferry on the pier, but he just can't rush over, and there are tears in his eyes.

It’s not fear, it’s regret!

So many good men are fighting against the enemy for their stubborn old man, but how can they be so important?

Shen Wenkui was roaring, "Let's go... stop beating... go, thank you all, Shen, thank you everyone..."

No one paid attention to him, and even the people around him who protected him ignored him.

Shen Wenkui knew that he had to find the leader, that he could be arrested and died. His only function was to bring a message to the King of Wu, Jiergalang's message.

"Who are the leaders of you... Let the leaders come to see me!" Shen Wenkui pulled the people beside him and shouted loudly.

....

Qian Yi was also in trouble.

There are too many enemies.

After receiving the urgent news from the head of Shuntian Prefecture, Lin Wei, he used the entire Changlin Wei organization of Tianjin Wei.

But after all, Changlin Guard is not a combat force, and even if the number of people far exceeds the enemy, he cannot easily protect Shen Wenkui from boarding the ship.

Seeing the battle stalemate, he was in trouble.

It’s not that he is afraid of losses or sacrifice, but that Qian Yi is worried that if he loses the entire Tianjin Changlin Wei, he may not be able to save Shen Wenkui.

Because the enemy's reinforcements arrived as soon as they were said, this was no longer rescue, but to die.

At this time, a subordinate rushed forward, "Sixth gear... Lord Shen said he wanted to see you."

....

Looking at Qian Yi covered in blood, Shen Wenkui stamped his feet and said, "It's not worth it... it's not worth it. I dare to ask what position you are?"

"Mr. Shen, Qian is the sixth-level leader of Changlin Wei... He was ordered to protect his master and return to Jiangnan."

"No need... really no need!" Shen Wenkui burst into tears. "Actually, it's just a sentence. As long as the gear is transferred to the King of Wu, it will be... There is no need to let so many people die for me... I'll order it to retreat quickly. Withdraw from the river. Shuo Sai's thoughts are all on me. As long as I'm captured, I will definitely not chase you... I'll order it, don't let such good men die in vain!"

Qian Yi was silent for a while and looked up and said, "It's not that Qian was afraid of death, but he didn't expect the enemy to come so quickly... This is obviously because he got the exact information. Lord Shen is right. The enemy reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible. If they continue to fight, no one can escape..."

Shen Wenkui was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "You understand the truth, why should you give someone a life in vain... Come, come close, I will tell you what I said."
