In the study room.

Gu Ze was sitting at his desk practicing calligraphy.

Ren Xin, on the other hand, was helping Gu Zeyan write the ink.

Two days have passed since Shen Jie was captured back to the capital.

After Gu Ze came back that day, he basically didn't go out much.

Stay with Ren Xin at home every day.

Uncle Fu, on the other hand, has been very busy these days.

First, I set up a fragrance workshop in the city.

He also renovated a shop in the city.

Once the decoration is completed, rose essence will be sold in the capital soon.

For this reason, Gu Ze asked Ren Xin to mobilize fifty Jinyi guards to protect the fragrance workshop tightly.

Ren Xin even arranged a lot of hidden sentries around.

No way, the value of rose essence is too great.

Money moves people's hearts, no amount of precautions is too much

"Gu Ze, after all, you are a dignified and dignified Duke of Wei. How come you can write so ugly?"

Ren Xin looked at the words written by Gu Ze on the paper and asked a little funny.

Gu Ze felt helpless listening to Ren Xin's words. There was nothing he could do. He was used to writing with a hard pen.

He couldn't practice calligraphy well with this brush.

"By the way, Gu Ze, the Jin Yiwei you sent to Jinling before has returned with news!"

Ren Xin looked at Gu Ze and said softly

"kindness? What did you say?"

Gu Ze looked at Ren Xin and laughed softly.

"You asked them to explore King Pingnan's troop distribution map before, and they have already explored it all! The distribution of King Pingnan's troops is indeed consistent with the distribution map you gave them!"

Ren Xin looked at Gu Ze and said with a smile.

"Haha, good thing! Great thing! With this force distribution map, it will be much easier to take down King Pingnan!"

When Gu Ze heard what Ren Xin said, he put down the brush in his hand and said with a smile. After probing for so long, he finally confirmed the authenticity of this military strength map.

This made Gu Ze feel very good.

"Then you plan to hand over this military strength plan to the emperor?"

Ren Xin looked at Gu Ze and asked softly

"You must pay it! but not now! but not now!"

Gu Ze shook his head gently.

He had always suspected that someone in the court was colluding with Prince Ping Nan.

And yesterday Gu Qianfan's visit proved that Gu Ze's guess was correct.

According to what Gu Ze Qianfan and the others learned from interrogating Shen Jie Intelligence.

Shen Jie came to the capital this time just to connect with the people who colluded with King Pingnan.

However, because Shen Jie was not angry that Gong Yi Cheng died in the capital, he took it upon himself to use the people placed in the palace by Xie Ju'an.

Give The Queen Mother gave the jade Ruyi as a gift.

But she didn't expect that because of this, he was directly arrested by Gu Ze's people before he could contact him.

As for who the contact person was,

Shen Jie didn't know.

He came. When he arrived in the capital, King Pingnan did not tell him the identity of the other party. He only said that after he arrived in the capital, there would be someoneGet on them.

This is also the reason why they have always been entrenched in the capital.

Therefore, before the person in the court who colluded with King Ping Nan was caught.

The matter of military strength.

Gu Ze would definitely not tell anyone.

After all, no one knows whether this matter will reach the ears of King Pingnan.

In that case, all the hard work of those Jin Yiwei for such a long time would be in vain.

Just when Gu Ze and Ren Xin were talking.

There was a gentle knock on the study door

"Come in!"

Gu Ze said loudly.

The door was gently pushed open.

Then, Zhao Yun's figure walked in from outside.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is here! This will be in the front hall!"

Zhao Yun said to Gu Ze

"His Majesty? good! I see! I'll go right away!"

Gu Ze stood up from the chair and walked towards the door.

In the front hall, Shen Lang, dressed as a noble man, was sitting in the living room drinking tea.

Gu Qianfan stood quietly aside.

"Your Majesty, why did you come to me today?"

Gu Ze walked into the living room, bowed to Shen Lang first, and then asked with a smile.

"Haha, I haven’t been out of the palace for a long time recently! I have nothing to do today, so I came to your house to have a look!"

"how? Wouldn't you be unwelcome?"Shen Lang looked at Gu Ze and asked with a smile.

"how could be? It's not too late for me to be happy that Your Majesty can come! How could it not be welcomed?"

"By the way, where is Uncle Fu? He usually receives me, why didn't I see him at my house today?"

Shen Lang asked curiously.

He was naturally no stranger to Uncle Fu.

After all, every time he came to Gu Ze's house before, it was Uncle Fu who welcomed him.

But today, it was Zhao Yun.

"Your Majesty, didn't I figure out a way to make rose essence recently?"

"Uncle Fu has been busy doing things in the workshop and shop these days!"

Gu Ze explained with a smile.

There is no need to hide things like rose essence.

There is no way to hide it.

After all, he had already asked Shen Zhiyi to take so much back to the palace.

Gu Ze didn't believe it. Did Shen Lang know? What about this matter?

"Haha, you kid, you can even get the rose essence from Dashi, so you are making money! In my opinion, I should put you in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Finance! Let your kid come up with ways to make money for me!"

Shen Lang naturally knew that Gu Ze had created the rose essence.

After all, after Shen Zhiyi returned to the palace that day, she not only sent several bottles of rose essence to the Queen Mother and the Empress.

She was also one of the several noble concubines in the palace. None of them were left behind.

And if they knew it, the emperor Shen Lang would naturally know it too.

"Your Majesty, I don’t have the ability to secure my position as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue! I'm just making a small fuss!"

Gu Ze looked at Shen Lang and laughed softly.

"You are just lazy!"

Shen Lang pointed at Gu Ze and said angrily.

Then, Shen Lang and Gu Ze walked out of the living room and wandered around the yard.

"Gu Ze, Qianfan already told you yesterday about what he found out from Shen Jie's interrogation, right?"

"said!"

"Then who do you think is colluding with the traitor in the court?"

Shen Lang frowned slightly and asked Gu Ze.

"Your Majesty, the person who can collude with King Ping Nan will definitely be someone in a high position! After all, it is impossible for an ordinary person to send his only son to Beijing!"

"Therefore, it is possible that there are only a few in total!"

"As for who it is, I’d better not say it until there is evidence!"

Gu Ze said softly

"After all, it’s very possible for anyone!"

"yes! There are only a few of them, who could they be?"

Shen Lang also murmured softly.
