Chapter 947 Allies?

"Quick, quickly send someone to retrieve the letter and memorial, quickly! Quickly!"

Just as Cao Zi'an was about to step forward to help Cai Yunting up, Cai Yunting shoved his hand away fiercely.

"Memorial and letter? What memorial and letter?"

Hearing his words, Cao Zi'an's heart skipped a beat. Could this idiot have, without a sound, already sent out the impeachment memorial and the letter to Cai Jing...

"What other memorial and letter could there be, it's just..."

Cai Yunting himself felt a wave of embarrassment as he spoke.

Although Cao Zi'an had his own selfish motives, in the end, he was also considering Cai Yunting's interests to some extent.

But Cai Yunting's actions were rather unfair. To vent his temporary anger, the old man actually didn't reveal anything to Cao Zi'an.

He had silently sent out both the letter and the memorial.

"When did the person leave?"

The situation had reached this point. No matter how frustrated Cao Zi'an felt, he could only temporarily set aside his annoyance. Gritting his teeth, he quickly asked.

"J-just shortly after you left..."

"What did you say?"

After hearing this, Cao Zi'an felt a wave of dizziness. He didn't know what to say at this moment...

"My lord, don't worry. What exactly did you write in your memorial? Tell me every single word! At this point, don't hide anything anymore!"

After patting his chest heavily, Cao Zi'an finally managed to calm down somewhat. So much time had already passed, what was the point of chasing after it now!

At this moment, he could only hope that Cai Yunting's memorial didn't contain anything irreversible.

After hearing his words, Cai Yunting quickly stood up with trembling hands and found the draft he had written from the desk nearby.

However, it was better not to look at it. After looking at it, Cao Zi'an suddenly felt his vision go black, and he slumped to the ground.

"Mr. Cao, Mr. Cao, are you alright?"

Seeing Cao Zi'an faint, Cai Yunting became even more scared.

He wasn't an idiot; he knew himself how much of what he had written was true and how much was false, and how much was malicious slander.

The fact that Han Mo had been personally promoted by the Emperor to be the Commissioner of Military Affairs for Liangzhe and Fujian Circuits indicated the Emperor's trust in him.

And Cai Yunting, just as his superior was promoted, had turned around and sent such a "gift."

If a normal person's mind wasn't faulty, they wouldn't have come up with such an idea, right?

But no matter how much he regretted it, there was no medicine for regret in this world. The situation had come to this, the memorial couldn't be retrieved, and now he could only pin his hopes on Cao Zi'an to think of a solution...

"Quickly send for a doctor, the best doctor in the city!"

In his panic, Cai Yunting could only wait for Cao Zi'an to wake up and help him figure out what to do...

Meanwhile, in Han Mo's temporary camp, there was a scene of great joy and laughter.

As the mistress of the house, Zhe Yourong, upon hearing the news, generously waved her sleeve and rewarded everyone with twenty strings of cash.

All the soldiers and servants in the entire camp were overjoyed.

"A Commissioner of Military Affairs for two circuits at the age of twenty..."

Looking at Han Mo's excessively young face, Li Zong, who arrived later, felt a mix of emotions.

Let alone him, even his father, Li Gang, was only a minor sixth-rank official at the moment.

Yet, Han Mo, in his early twenties, was already a fourth-rank official, Grand Master of Court Virtues, and Commissioner of Military Affairs for the Liangzhe and Fujian Circuits!

At this moment, he truly doubted how such an imperial edict had passed through the imperial court.

Let alone in this dynasty, it was estimated that since the First Emperor unified the six states, there wouldn't be more than five people like this.

"Brother, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something you want to say?"

While Li Zong was lost in thought, Han Mo approached him with a smile.

"No, no, I was just momentarily lost in thought..."

Hearing Han Mo's question, Li Zong felt a bit embarrassed.

"Brother, my official position is different from other adults. It's just a temporary measure by His Majesty, you don't really need to take it to heart!"

Han Mo certainly knew what he was spacing out about; it was nothing more than his rapid promotion that made Li Zong find it difficult to accept.

However, even though he was now a high-ranking official, while the Emperor had given him ample trust, he had also given him a shackle.

"Lord Han, I will have to rely on you from now on!"

As the two were talking, a eunuch with a smiling face walked over directly from the side.

"Supervisor Feng, what are you saying? If anyone is to rely on anyone, it should be me relying on Supervisor Feng to speak well of me to His Majesty!"

"Lord Han, you jest. Others may not know your background, but I do. Before I came here, my adoptive father had already given instructions for me to obey all of Lord Han's commands! Oh, and this is a letter from my adoptive father to Lord Han. Lord Han will understand it at a glance!"

As Feng Yi spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it in front of Han Mo.

"Oh?"

Hearing him say that, Han Mo took the envelope and opened it, reading it carefully.

After reading the letter, Han Mo truly felt relieved from the bottom of his heart. It seemed he owed Liang Shicheng another great favor.

A "zou ma cheng shi" (a eunuch who can directly report to the emperor) was a mere seventh-rank official, but this position was no joke.

First of all, they had the right to directly reach the Emperor's ears, and their promotions were not affected by local officials, directly subordinate to the Emperor, which guaranteed that they would not be restrained by local officialdom.

Secondly, they were actually the Emperor's eyes and ears.

They had the right to know about any aspect of military or civil affairs.

Even though Han Mo was now a high-ranking official and enjoyed the Emperor's trust, if he didn't handle the relationship with the "zou ma cheng shi" properly, he might suffer many hidden losses in the end.

Liang Shicheng sending his adopted son here at this time gave Han Mo an immeasurable convenience in an invisible way!

"Lord Han understands? We are on the same side!"
