He immediately understood that he was required to destroy the letter on the spot after reading it.
Zhao Muyun opened the letter and the emperor's private seal was faintly visible under the candlelight. The content of the letter made his eyes even more profound.
After reading it, he put the letter and envelope together over the candle flame and burned them.
Seeing the flames dancing and the smoke rising, the masked man turned around and said, "Then I will go back and report to the higher-ups that Lord Zhao has received the imperial edict."
After saying this, he rose up gracefully and walked out from the beam again.
"The Emperor's henchman, Longchasi! Humph!"
After that person left, Zhao Muyun's eyes became extremely cold.
This secret service organization, similar to the Embroidered Uniform Guard, is the eyes and ears of the current Emperor Yongchang who monitors all officials.
However, they were still a little naive when it came to monitoring Zhao Muyun.
If Zhao Muyun hadn't deliberately let them get closer, they would never have been able to pass the two checkpoints of Overnight and Scout Camp.
When it comes to lurking, spying, and surveillance, how can the Longchasi be even a fraction as good as Zhao Muyun, who was a special forces soldier in his previous life, and the Night Soldier and Scout Battalion he personally trained?
However, after what happened tonight, the masked man probably wouldn't dare to send anyone to eavesdrop on Zhao Muyun easily.
Zhao Muyun didn't care about these things, but fell into deep thought about the content of the letter from His Majesty just now.
Emperor Yongchang actually warned him not to have any thoughts of resisting the marriage, but to actively promote this matter and marry the princess as soon as possible.
At the same time, Emperor Yongchang gave Zhao Muyun another sweet treat.
As long as Zhao Muyun marries Princess Qinghe as soon as possible, not only will Zhao Muyun be granted the title of county baron, but Xiazhou will also be handed over to Zhao Muyun for jurisdiction.
For ordinary people, the title of county baron has already achieved a class leap.
Xiazhou is where Zhao Muyun is going to plant and mass-produce tobacco.
The temptation is huge!
Ever since Emperor Yongchang proposed the marriage, the scholar-officials, the generals, the crown prince and his cronies, and the Prince of Jin in the court have all been jumping up and down, as if they were brewing a complicated and treacherous court strife.
Zhao Muyun always thought that he could stay out of it, strategize from a God's perspective, and look down on the overall situation.
But who knew that Emperor Yongchang had already stood at the God's perspective, coldly watching every move of the chess piece on the board.
What on earth does this old emperor want to do?
Isn't that messy enough for him?
