Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 154
Lu Hao slowly walked out from the far corner.

With his Qinggong, combined with his eyesight and hearing, as well as his super strong sense of smell, only a ninth-level master would be able to avoid his tracking.

Zhong Weidong was not a fool. After drinking and eating, he quietly went out from behind and walked into the alley, and lost sight of him in an instant.

As a member of the Supervision Department, Zhong Weidong is also a cunning and cunning person who does not follow common sense at all.

If it weren't for Lu Hao, even ten Du Ze would not be able to keep up with him.

Lu Hao relied on his powerful hearing and vision, supplemented by the "Tianfeng Lightning Step", to bite Zhong Weidong tightly.

Soon, Zhong Weidong came to a small building.

I saw him flying up, entering through the window, and landing in the room.

For a moment, the room was lit up with candlelight.

Lu Hao landed on the opposite roof, about ten meters away. He would definitely not be discovered at this distance.

Obviously, Zhong Weidong is also waiting for someone.

About an hour later, almost midnight, a masked man in black quietly entered the room opposite.

Lu Hao suddenly became energetic and concentrated, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people opposite.

"My subordinates greet you, my lord!"

Zhong Weidong fell to his knees.

"Get up, they didn't suspect you?"

The masked man in black spoke.

Lu Hao was stunned when he heard the sound.

Isn't this Yuwenji's voice?

"I don't doubt my subordinates, and I even said that it was the dead eunuch who exposed his whereabouts."

Zhong Weidong was a little complacent.

"Don't underestimate Lu Hao. This dead eunuch has some brains. During this period, we should not meet again to avoid exposing any flaws."

Yu Wenji warned.

"My subordinate understands!"

Zhong Weidong responded.

"This is for you. Don't squander it around to avoid arousing suspicion."

Yu Wenji took out a bag of gold and silver and handed it to Zhong Weidong.

To be honest, according to the past behavior, he should be killed directly.

However, the position of the Supervision Department is too important. He is also the deputy to the head of the three divisions. He has a high status and has access to many secrets.

Moreover, the Supervision Department has strict audits and it is not easy to send people to infiltrate. Even if you infiltrate, it will be very slow to get promoted to this position.

This Zhong Weidong was also loyal and had made many contributions. It would be a pity to kill him.

"I would like to thank you for the reward!"

Zhong Weidong was ecstatic.

"Okay, go ahead and be careful along the way!"

Yuwenji waved his hand.

Zhong Weidong thanked him again, then flew down and disappeared into the darkness.

Yu Wenji watched him leave, extinguished the candlelight, and then quietly left from the other side.

Lu Hao used Qinggong and placed Yu Wenji in the distance. Want to see where he goes?
To be honest, Lu Hao didn't expect that Yu Wenji was actually a hidden master.

Judging from his speed, if not eighth grade, he is at least seventh grade.

Soon, Yuwenji came to a luxurious mansion.

Just as Lu Hao guessed, Yu Wenji immediately came to see the Prime Minister Yu Qian.

Now Lu Hao is sure that Yu Qian and Yuwen Jihang are working together to poison the emperor. As long as Zhong Weidong is caught, the evidence will be conclusive.

We have the witness, but where is the physical evidence?

Lu Hao watched Yu Wenji enter the prime minister's mansion. He did not leave in a hurry, but wanted to see if there was any news about the poison.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I went to see Zhong Weidong. He was not suspected. On the contrary, Lu Hao thought that he had leaked the traces. I think he should not be at risk of being exposed for the time being."

Yuwen Jihui reports.

"Lu Hao, that damn eunuch, thinks he is smart, but he doesn't know that he can only drink the true form of foot-washing water, hehehe..."

Yu Qian laughed happily.

"The Prime Minister is wise. If you hadn't arranged the layout in the Supervision Department, we might have been exposed this time when the third son and the young Yingzi were caught."

Yu Wenji also secretly said it was a fluke.

"The truth is that we were careless. I didn't expect that Xiao Sanzi and Xiao Yingzi escaped through the Autumn Hunting Ceremony, and there was no news about them. The truth is strange. Even with our power, we couldn't find the two little eunuchs. How did Lu Hao find them? "?" Yu Qian pondered.

"Yes, how did he know about this dead eunuch? Could it be that a spy from the Supervision Department discovered it?"

Yuwenji guessed.

"You are right. It should have been discovered by the spies of the Supervision Department. Otherwise, how could Lu Hao have sent Du Ze to Jianghuai County to arrest people just after arriving at the Supervision Department."

Yu Qian nodded slightly, obviously feeling the same way.

"Master Prime Minister, what should we do next?"

Yuwenji asked.

"You still have to be careful about this matter. Pay attention to Zhong Weidong's situation at all times. If anyone doubts him, just silence him."

Yu Qian was indeed careful, but he was still worried that something might happen to Zhong Weidong.

After all, Zhong Weidong is now in direct contact with Yu Wenji. Once he is caught, Yu Wenji will be exposed, and he himself will be exposed.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister. I will send someone to keep an eye on him tomorrow. If there is anything unusual, I will just kill him."

Yu Wenji responded.

"Now that the Military Aircraft Department has just been established, the large and small government affairs that have accumulated in the past few days need to be dealt with as soon as possible. Don't act rashly these days."

Yu Qian warned.

"By the way, the people sent by the Queen Mother have already responded. If there is any news, they will be sent over."

Yu Wenji reports again.

"Well, that old woman is extremely cunning and cruel. We really need to keep an eye on her to avoid stumbling upon us."

Yu Qian nodded slightly, with an evil smile on his lips.

"Prime Minister, if nothing happens, I will go back."

Yu Wenji bowed his hands and left.

After listening to what the two said, Lu Hao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed because he didn't hear any news about the poison.

However, fortunately, the witness of Zhong Weidong has been confirmed, so he will be arrested directly.

That night, Zhong Weidong disappeared.

However, this time Lu Hao became smarter. Instead of looking for someone from the Supervision Department, he arrested the person himself and hid Zhong Weidong.

……

the next day.

Lu Hao went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs early in the morning.

The first is to arrange the steel smelting, and the second is to check the production progress of guns and ammunition.

Of course, the most important thing is to arrange manpower and prepare for the production of matches.

The production of matches requires gunpowder, and unlike bullets, this formula can only be mastered in your own hands.

Therefore, Lu Hao still needs to do the preparation of gunpowder himself.

As for phosphorus powder, it is something that can spontaneously ignite. It needs to be handled with care when used on matches.

In addition, it is to ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to immediately send people to collect oil.

Ganzhou is now his fief, so he wrote to Lord Jiang Chengen, the governor of Ganzhou, to cooperate with the work of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After arranging these things, it was almost noon. When Lu Hao went to the Supervision Department to handle matters, he had already forgotten all about Situ Tianyin's invitation.

……

Military Department.

The Prime Minister has just finished handling the large and small government affairs and sent them to Cining Palace for the Empress Dowager to stamp her seal.

At lunch time, Yu Wenji came in a hurry and pulled him into the room.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, something bad has happened!"

Yu Wenji was extremely anxious.

"what happened?"

Yu Qian suddenly felt bad.

"Zhong Weidong is missing!"

Yu Wenji lowered his voice and reported.

"what?"

Yu Qian was completely dumbfounded.
