If you want to grant Zheng Moru a title, the quickest and most effective way is to go through Qi Xiaomian. Sang Qingxiao did not beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
Why are you suddenly interested in Zheng Moru? He is a spy for the Dayu Dynasty.
Qi Xiaomian's eyes glinted with suspicion. Do you have any evidence?
When he comes from the Dayu Dynasty, the evidence will come along with him.
The Dayu Dynasty? But didn't Qi Xiaomian realize that the person from the Court was a fake?
Yes, even that person was a fake. His identity in the Dayu Dynasty is Tang Jin, the legitimate eldest son of the Duke of Tang.
A prominent figure from an enemy nation; Qi Xiaomian had heard of him. Tang Jin was considered a man of great stature, though it seemed his health was not very good. He rarely appeared in public in the Dayu Dynasty to ensure he wouldn’t be recognized in the Great Jing Dynasty.
Not long after the Sang Family made their move, the Tang family rose directly from a Marquisate to a Duke's Residence. The current Duke of Tang is still Tang Jin's grandfather, who has been diligent and earnest even after his passing, not out of greed for power but to protect Tang Jin.
In noble families, there are always schemers. His father and brothers had long set their sights on the position of Duke, but under the intimidation of the Duke of Tang and His Majesty, they dared not act rashly.
Are you sure that granting him a title will entice him to come?
After Tang Jin achieved that significant merit, he became somewhat complacent and hasn’t shown up for quite some time. The information he has passed along has been trivial; perhaps the Emperor of the Dayu Dynasty is already dissatisfied with him but has not shown it.
Tang Jin is quite astute; how could he not know? He is merely seeking balance for his own position between the two nations. If anyone wishes for the Great Jing Dynasty not to perish, he would be one of them. After all, as long as the Great Jing Dynasty endures, his value will endure as well.
The Great Jing Dynasty granting him a title reflects the Court's regard for him, which is something he desperately needs. If the Emperor of the Dayu Dynasty sees that the Great Jing Dynasty still trusts him, his tolerance for him will likely increase.
Qi Xiaomian questioned this; it's just a promotion. Why would he need to make such a long journey himself when his puppet could represent him?
What an honorable day it would be! A person who has lived long in darkness craves the awe of others.
Qi Xiaomian shook his head; while it was highly likely he would come, it still wasn’t enough. Cautious individuals have many concerns; at the slightest hint of trouble, he would remain inactive.
So Sang Qingxiao smiled and said, isn't this coming to ask for your help?
Qi Xiaomian also smiled and replied, let’s hear it then. The Great Jing must have spies in Dayu too, right?
Qi Xiaomian remained silent.
Sang Qingxiao continued, "It's not just the Court that has it; you definitely have it too."
"Miss Sang, some things shouldn't be said lightly."
"You have mines in Dayu; how could Dayu not have people like you?"
"Just a few miners," Qi Xiaomian replied.
Sang Qingxiao sneered, "Yongxin Marquis is being modest."
Qi Xiaomian sensed the irritation in her tone and quickly tried to ease the tension. "That kind of address is too formal; I prefer when you call me by my name."
"Who was it that first drew the line?"
