Why does Song Xian, who usually reports everything truthfully in his memorials, keep silent about his private meetings with Meng Su?
Especially since they meet so frequently.
Surely there's no need for Song Xian to personally go just for a spinning wheel and silk thread, is there?
Du Zheng said, "Even I find it suspicious, Song Jiedu does seem to be trying to win him over."
A man in the North reaching out to the South, what is he planning to do?
The Emperor instructed, "Keep a close watch on them, and if you find solid evidence, report immediately."
Du Zheng responded.
The Emperor continued, "Bring me all the documents Meng Su sent in the last six months; I need to look through them carefully."
Even though the reviewed memorials have been sent back, the Central Secretariat keeps records. Du Zheng received the order and went to check; in no time at all, the documents were delivered into the Emperor's hands.
