Di Renjie, who was given by the system, was around 40 years old and had a medium build.
"Your Majesty, Jiang Prefecture is very complicated at the moment. I can't guarantee your safety if I come at this time.”Di Renjie said.
"I know. Tell me about the situation in Jiang Prefecture. I'm here to specifically resolve the matter in Jiang Prefecture.”Liu Chan said.
"Your Majesty, Li Feng has been colluding with Sun Quan for a very long time. This subject has sent many spies to track down how they colluded. Yesterday, there was a clue. It turns out that the East Wu sent Lu Xun to contact Li Feng. Lu Xun's younger brother, Lu Yi, will go to Jiang Prefecture's Laifu Inn to meet Li Feng on the 15th of every month.”Di Renjie said.
"Today is the 14th, which means they will meet tomorrow. If I come, would Li Feng dare to go?”Liu Chan said.
"It's hard to say. Li Feng has been accumulating food and plundering the people's wealth. In my opinion, he's about to rebel, so Your Majesty shouldn't come to Jiang Prefecture at this time. It's too dangerous.”Di Renjie said worriedly.
"I have already sent the Prime Minister to the East Wu to deal with them. During this period of time, we have to wipe out all the forces of the East Wu in the Jiang Prefecture.”Liu Chan said.
"Mei Wei, on the surface, he looks like a giant merchant, but in reality, based on my observations, he has already joined Sun Quan. The fleet he controls is the largest in the Jiang Prefecture, and even the entire country. Zhan Zhao has been following him for the past few days, and there should be news by tonight.”Di Renjie said.
"Looks like the waters of Jiang Prefecture are indeed very deep! Renjie, give the order to summon Zhanzhao. We will wait for him here.”Liu Chan said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Di Renjie got up and called Di Chun over. After giving a few instructions, Di Chun left quickly.
Outside the prefect's manor, there were a few pairs of eyes staring at the people coming in and out. When they saw Di Chun come out, they sent people to follow him.
Di Chun passed through the streets and alleys, and the people following him followed him all the way.
At the entrance of a tavern, Di Chun had just sat down and was about to drink when a few people who were following him came over. They rushed over and instantly controlled Di Chun.
A figure flew over and caught the two kidnappers off guard. They were sent flying fifty to sixty feet away.
Di Chun knew that Zhan Zhao was here.
As long as they reached the tavern, Di Chun felt relieved. The journey just now was the most dangerous.
The few people who were injured by Zhan Zhao had long disappeared. It seemed that they were quite skilled.
Zhan Zhao removed the hood from Di Chun's head and asked," Where is Lord Di?”
"Daren is currently discussing matters with the emperor in the prefect's manor. They are all waiting for your news.”Di Chun said.
"Alright, I'll go immediately. I have important news to report to the emperor.”Zhang Zhanzhao could not wait for the road.
Just as Zhan Zhao and Di Chun were conversing, a few pairs of eyes were staring at them from the shop opposite the tavern.
The distance from the tavern to the prefect's manor was two kilometers. There were shops along the way. It was already late autumn, but there were still many people wandering around. Life here was very unorganized.
After Zhan Zhao arrived at the prefect's manor, the few pairs of eyes watching the opposite of the prefect's manor immediately became alert. A voice said," Quickly go and report to the old master. Zhan Zhao has already gone in. The fish is about to take the bait."”
"Yes, I'll go right away." another voice said.
In the prefect's manor, Zhan Zhao knelt down to Liu Chan, who personally helped him up.
"There's no need to be so polite. In the future, you and Di Renjie don't have to kneel in front of me.”
"I obey your orders. Thank you for your kindness, Lord!" Di Renjie and Zhan Zhao bowed and said.
"Zhan Zhao, tell me quickly if you have any news. How deep is Mei Wei colluding with the East Wu?”
"Your Majesty, Mi Wei and Sun Quan have been colluding with each other for a long time. I've been observing the Mi Residence with my Light-body Technique for a few days, and I found out that Sun Quan's envoy has been stationed there for a long time.”
"Messenger, what did they talk about?" Liu Chan was puzzled.
"They were talking about trade. I don't understand trade, and I didn't pay too much attention to it.”Zhan Zhao said in shame.
"Trade, there are also goods that are traded. What goods have you heard the most about?”Liu Chan asked.
"This…I've only heard the word 'salt' at most. They've been talking about salt for the past few days, so I don't know what's there to talk about.”Zhan Zhao said.
"This is very important! Your Majesty, is Mi Wei still doing salt business with Wu? This is the crime of extermination!" Di Renjie said.
Salt. Shu Han was inland. There were no large salt mines or sea salt, only some mineral salt that tasted very bitter.
"Salt? This wasn't part of the water trade, and the imperial court didn't give Mi Wei any salt, so where did he get the salt? If we import it, it's basically impossible. Sun Quan won't sell it to us either.”
Liu Chan asked doubtfully. He had a vague feeling that there was a huge conspiracy behind this.
