1774: This is an internal affair
Tian Zhen was a little nervous. As the saying goes, he would not go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Tian Kang suddenly came to the door today, definitely not to reminisce about his old love. Tian Zhen knew his family's affairs. If he had the ability, he thought he would never be inferior to Tian Kang. The reason why he lost in the final competition with Tian Kang was actually because he was a member of the Shayang system. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he began to step out the influence of the Shayang system on the Ming court.
But the Shayang system cannot say anything to Qin Feng's strategy, because Qin Feng's promise to them was actually fulfilled. The five great masters of Shayang are indeed the five great masters in the world now. The speed of wealth gathering is astonishing.
With huge financial resources, it is naturally impossible for them to have a huge say in politics. The restaurants that Tian family spread all over the world have now basically become peripheral organizations of the Ministry of State Security, and are only responsible for the task of collecting intelligence.
Stepping into the mansion, Tian Zhen looked at Tian Kang: "Do you go to the living room to talk or to the study?"
When he went to the living room to talk, Tian Kang was naturally here to be a guest. It was a purely courteous visit, but if he was going to the study, it was just a serious business. However, if it was a business, Tian Kang actually came to his home, which revealed some unusual accidents.
Tian Zhen naturally would not naively think that Tian Kang wanted to repair his previous relationship with him. In fact, the relationship between the two officials of the Ministry of State Security is the most reassured by the court. Whether it is Tian Zhen or Tian Kang, the leader in the dark world, there will be some secret forces of their own. It can be said that even the emperor may not understand these secret forces clearly. The huge destructive power of the Ministry of State Security is something that any person in power will be wary of. The complex historical relationship between the two giants is destined to interview each other, guard against each other, but also cooperate with each other.
"Go to the study!" Tian Kang said without any hesitation.
Tian Zhen was slightly stunned, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face, but even after she returned to normal in an instant, she nodded and led the way half a step ahead of Tian Kang.
In the study, the host and guest were divided, and Tian Kang did not greet him at all, and said bluntly: "Taoyuan Wuzhengting reported a big case, but there was no problem in solving a case of a spy in Qi State."
Tian Zhen didn't even raise his eyelids and said with a smile: "The Ming Dynasty is afraid that it is cracking Qi's spy detective cases every day. Why is it so serious about this?"
"You should know that His Highness of the King of Qi has gone to Changzhu Horse King Club, right?" Tian Kang said suddenly.
Tian Zhen only raised her head this time, was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Yes, I know."
"But I never knew it. It was not until Wu Zhengting opened the case and was shocked that he sent someone to deliver me a letter overnight. "Tian Kang said slowly: "I dare to ask Lord Tian, where did you know this news?"
Tian Zhen showed an angry look on her face, "Don't you know that Tian is responsible for domestic affairs of the Ministry of State Security?"
"You shouldn't know about this, because His Majesty bypassed the entire Ministry of State Security and secretly sent His Highness to Changzhu Mawangji, taking the military route." Tian Kang said word by word: "Mr. Tian, I came to my door today, you should know that this matter is too small. How did you know about Tian Min?"
Tian Zhen's face changed slightly again, and he finally nodded.
Tian Kang continued: "The Haoyunlai Restaurant, which Tian family is preparing to incorporate, is not an ordinary restaurant. His boss Kong Lianshun is a spy detective from Qi State, and was a spy directed by Qin Li in the past."
Tian Zhenteng stood up and his face changed. He said tremblingly: "His whereabouts of His Highness King Qi in Changzhu have been exposed?"
"Yes." Tian Kang said: "When Tian Min came to the restaurant, he happened to meet His Highness King Qi and went to this restaurant for dinner. He recognized His Highness King Qi, which was not a big deal, but the problem was that he told Kong Lianshun about this."
"His Highness of the King of Qi is safe and sound?" Tian Zhen said in a trembling voice.
"Of course it's okay." Tian Kang said calmly: "Kong Lianshun had already entered our surveillance. In the intercepted information of Kong Lianshun sending him to Qi, we found that the whereabouts of His Highness King Qi had been known to the people of Qi. More importantly, the people of Qi were preparing to take advantage of His Highness King Qi's opportunity to seize His Highness King Qi. General Wuling blocked all the news and made a careful plan with Wu Zhengting, preparing to keep their two masters in Changning, Wen Yaowu and Lan Yongchuan forever in that mountain."
"Did Your Majesty already know about this?" Tian Zhen stood up.
"Next, I'm going to see the palace and meet His Majesty soon." Tian Kang said.
"I understand." Tian Zhen bowed, "Tian was very affectionate, and when he turned around, Tian would immediately enter the palace to apologize."
"There is no question of being kind." Tian Kang shook his head: "This is an internal matter between our Guoan. I just hope to deal with it secretly within it so that people will not be ridiculed."
Tian Zhen nodded. "Mr. Tian rushed back from Chudi, for this reason?"
"How dare I not come back if there is such a big leak in Changzhu? In fact, I went to Wuling first, met General Wu, and confirmed that his plan would not endanger the safety of His Highness King Qi. Then I rushed back with confidence. I guess at this time, there has been already started there. I hope we will hear good news next."
After seeing Tian Kang away, Tian Zhen returned to the study room and sat alone for a long time before he stood up and called his personal guard, "Go to find Tian Min to see me."
Several hours later, Tian Zhen met Qin Feng, the emperor of the Ming Empire. Pu was lying on the ground without saying a word.
"Is it for Tian Min?" Qin Feng knocked on the table and asked Tian Zhen to stand up and speak.
"Your Majesty, Tian is guilty. Fortunately, His Highness of the King of Qi is safe. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Tian to redeem his crimes even if he died." Tian Zhen knocked heavily, "Tian Zhen was not strict in his family, so he asked the emperor to punish him."
"The leak will always come out." Qin Feng said unconsciously." How about Tian Min?"
Tian Zhen was silent for a moment and whispered: "After Tian Min knew about this, she was ashamed and surrendered to herself."
Qin Feng frowned: "If you have no intention of mistakes, you will not die."
"Your Majesty, if this matter is put on others, it can be considered a crime and death. However, Tian is different. Tian is engaged in intelligence work. As the person in charge of the Tian family restaurant, Tian Min neglected and revealed the whereabouts of His Highness King Qi. If he did not die, he would not only be sorry for the court, but also for the ancestor of the Tian family." Tian Zhen said.
"Forget it, since it's already like this, then that's it. I have told Tian Kang to turn around and let Wu Zhengting erase this matter in the report. Tian's restaurant is spread all over the world and is the ears and eyes of the Ministry of State Security, but only in this way, it seems a little messy. Next, we will make some rectifications. Tian Min's position has become higher and higher in recent years, and the color of businessmen has become stronger and stronger. As an intelligence officer, the quality of this is getting worse and worse. This is why such a mistake has been made. Looking back, you have to make some rectifications." Qin Feng said.
"Abide by the holy order!" Tian Zhen nodded.
"Go, since Tian Min is dead, let's bury him well. The glory he should give him should be given to him. After all, he has served the Ming Dynasty for so many years, and he has worked hard without any credit. It is final to make a conclusion that he has made more contributions than his faults." Qin Feng said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is kind and virtuous. Tian Shi Ming is a little nervous." Tian Zhen said a word of daring. Tian Min is an important figure of the Tian family and a striking figure among the Ming merchants. Now that he is dead, if he had not said the emperor, Tian would definitely not dare to hold a funeral for him with great fanfare. But such a person died inexplicably and was buried silently. Anyone would guess that something was strange inside. After all, the paper could not contain the fire. Even if it was hidden deep, it would not help but inquire from those who were interested. If this matter was exposed, it would be a big blow to Tian.
Tian Zhen left the palace with gratitude and tears.
"Your Majesty, Tian Kang went to Tian Zhen to report this matter specifically. Does he want to repair his relationship with Tian Zhen?" Eunuch Le asked in a low voice while sorting out the messy books on Qin Feng's case.
Qin Feng shook his head: "Don't you know the grudge between Tian Kang and the Tian clan, do you know what Zi Luo's face is?"
"Is this matter related to Tian?" Eunuch Le asked in surprise.
"It is precisely because Tian Kang and Tian's turn against each other. It is because of Zi Luo that they cannot make up for their personal relationship. Tian Kang told Tian Kang about Tian Min's incident, but only to take care of the face of the Ministry of State Security. After all, Tian Zhen is the second-person of the Ministry of State Security. If such a thing happens at home, it will not only be the face of Tian's, but also the face of the Ministry of State Security. As the number one figure of the Ministry of State Security, Tian Kang will naturally not let the Ministry of State Security make people point fingers because of this." Speaking of this, Qin Feng suddenly laughed: "What, do you think Tian Kang should take advantage of this matter to seek revenge on Tian Zhen, settle the accounts, and take the opportunity to step on it?"
"I used to know that they didn't know, but I didn't know that there was such a deep hatred. I was a eunuch, and I really thought so." Eunuch Le said with a smile.
"If Tian Kangzhen does this, then he will not be able to sit steadily in the position of the head of the Ministry of State Security." Qin Feng burst into laughter: "Even I will have opinions about him. If a department boss cannot put the interests of the entire department first, but puts personal grudges in his head, then he will not be worthy of leading the department, and even his subordinates will not accept it. Wu Zhengting and Xie Qiu and other national security commanders will also have different opinions on this."
"Your Majesty is still thinking deeply!" Eunuch Le nodded repeatedly. "The old slave has little knowledge. It seems that this matter is under control. It won't take long before Your Majesty will receive the good news from the Wuling War Zone. His Highness King Qi's trip to Wuling finally made great contributions."
Qin Feng laughed: "What contribution did he make? As bait? King Wu Yan dared to write like this, and I don't spit on him."
"I'm daring to make a bet with Your Majesty." Eunuch Le is full of confidence.
