Mo Xiuyuan was under Qin Zhengxiao’s influence. He used the relationship of “Commander-in-chief”to rope in his own people.
This process was not difficult.
A wise man submits to circumstances. People in the officialdom knew better than anyone else how to protect themselves and how to effectively protect themselves.
After a day.
Mo Xiuyuan had successfully rope in a few officials who supported Qin Zhengxiao under his authority. All he reported to Qin Zhengyang was that Qin Zhengyang had already become Qin Zhengyang’s people. Qin Zhengyang would not doubt it, this was because the first people he roped in were only “Small fries”and would not be of much use.
Some important forces, such as Nan Zhixun’s family, would be their most important.
However, Qin Zhengyang did not reject Mo Xiuyuan’s method. Although this method of “Surrounding the city with the countryside”was a little longer, it was not that risky, moreover, the success rate was obviously much higher than acting rashly and straightforwardly.
Qin Zhengyang was not in a hurry because he felt that there was still a lot of time.
Mo Xiuyuan was a little anxious because he was afraid that the commander-in-chief did not have much time left.
At that time, if Qin Zhengxiao attacked forcefully, his wishful thinking would very likely fail.
He was busy all day and did not return to his apartment until it was a little late at night.
He sat on the sofa. The tiredness of the day seemed to show at this moment.
He picked up the phone and dialed. “Zhai An, is there any progress? Have you found Man Man’s latest residence?”
“Yes.”Zhai an seemed to have been waiting for his call. “It’s not clear, but I’m 80% sure that she is at that place.”
“Where is she?”
“At second cousin’s Manor Villa.”
Mo Xiuyuan’s expression turned solemn.
Zhai an continued, “Today, I spent a whole day looking for her through the video that Leng Juncheng provided me. Qin zhengxiao deliberately went in circles with me and arranged a few suspicious cars to circle around the capital. It wasted a lot of my time. Later, I thought that maybe there was a secret passage leading to other places in Qin Zhengxiao’s villa. I went to the surroundings of his villa and climbed over the big mountain behind the villa. I found an open space that was most likely a passage. I was afraid that I would alert the enemy, so I didn’t make any movements and left. “After I left, I called my second cousin. I was going to tell him what you told me, but after the call was connected, I stopped for five seconds before I spoke. The first thing I said was ‘hello’. I think it’s inconvenient for him to pick up the call.”
Mo Xiuyuan’s face was tense and he did not say a word.
“Then I came back to watch the traffic video. Indeed, I did not see any suspicious cars entering second cousin’s villa area. But I just said that there are other passageways in Qin Zhengxiao’s villa. I think the means of transportation that Lu man went to should be a helicopter. That can explain why I did not see any cars entering or leaving,”said Zhai an, “Because you said that second cousin can not be involved in this matter, I didn’t dare to go in and investigate the situation without permission. I was waiting for your instructions.”
Mo Xiuyuan clenched his fingers tightly.
He seemed to be silent for a few seconds before he said, “You said that when Ah Li answered the phone, there was obviously someone by his side?”
“Yes.”Zhai an nodded, “You know that we have a tacit understanding between us. Usually, this kind of situation would not happen under safe circumstances. “I remember that you said that Lu Man and Qin Zhengxiao should be together. The entire imperial city could really threaten second cousin to not only not leave through the secret passage but to allow himself to be threatened. Other than Qin Zhengxiao, there should be no one else who could do it. “And I always felt that second cousin didn’t leave by himself because Lu man was by his side. He wouldn’t leave by himself! “Not only that, after I returned, I watched the traffic video a few times. Although there were no suspicious cars that entered second cousin’s villa area, there was a large delivery truck that entered the villa this evening. Of course, it left not long after. If I wasn’t careful, I wouldn’t have noticed it. I thought that it was a normal delivery process, but because I already had doubts in my heart, I felt that it was very likely that the large delivery truck was actually Qin Zhengxiao who entered!”
