This small inn has been open in Chang'an City for more than 20 years, which is probably not much different from the time when His Majesty Li Chengtang ascended the throne. For such an opposition between Heiwu and Daning, every year both sides try their best to send more people to the other party's domestic intelligence, not only military intelligence, but also people's livelihood, politics, and even the list of officials, which extends to the interests and hobbies of each official.

Ye Yunsan of Daning once became a close confidant around Emperor Heiwu Khan. His words even exceeded most of the officials of the Heiwu Khan Kingdom. Because of his existence, the northern border army successfully resolved the military actions of the Heiwu Kingdom again and again, and successfully obtained the entire map of the Heiwu Kingdom. It also built an amazing spy network, which is much more valuable than destroying tens of thousands of troops of the Heiwu Kingdom in one battle.

Heiwu will naturally also plant a large number of secret spies in Daning'an. This small inn, which has been operating in Chang'an City for more than 20 years, was arranged by His Majesty Li Chengtang after he ascended the throne. In the past 20 years, this inn has never been exposed, not because their way of activity is so secret, but because the only function of this inn is to cover up other secret spies who have entered Daning, rather than to directly inquire about the news.

The shopkeeper of the inn is also from Bohai. The black warriors and even the people of most tribes in the country cannot disguise themselves as Ning people. They cannot disguise themselves from physical appearance to their words and deeds. Their physical characteristics have already betrayed everything. Therefore, more than 70% of the secret spies who invaded Daning in the Black Martial Kingdom were from Bohai people.

Every year, a large number of children from the Bohai Kingdom are selected to be sent to Heiwu to study. Specialized people teach them the language, culture, history of Ning people, and all things related to Daning are familiar with, and even local dialects and local folk customs. Everything that the Heiwu Kingdom masters will be instilled into their heads.

These Bohai people were sent to Daning when they were teenagers and arranged to approach the Daning Power Center in those families that looked ordinary that the Black Warriors had already prepared for a long time, passing the Daning imperial examination, or recruiting, and various ways that could enter the court.

Among them, Su Qifan has a high status and was once highly regarded by Emperor Heiwu Khan.

For Su Qifan alone, Heiwu even formulated a special plan to support him.

This plan is very long-term. After they learned that Su Qifan had become the chief assistant of the Daning Cabinet Mu Zhaotong, they arranged for more people to sneak into the Chang'an City of Daning to protect and support Su Qifan. The most important thing about their plan is that if it is not necessary, he will definitely not use Su Qifan, so that he can develop normally. He will do whatever he should do for Daning. The black general will train Su Qifan to become the chief assistant of the Daning Cabinet at all costs, and at the least, he will become one of the secondary assistants.

Once this plan is successful, the secret spies from the Heiwu Kingdom will directly invade the Daning Power Center. This is no longer close, but completely invade and become part of the power center.

When the Black Warriors formulated this plan, they named the plan the twenty-five-year plan.

They plan to spend twenty-five years to help Su Qifan become an indispensable member of the Daning Cabinet and an indispensable member of the Daning Emperor. If this plan succeeds in twenty-five years, Su Qifan will be about fifty years old and will completely control Daning's every move.

However, this plan stopped immediately after Su Qifan noticed that Mu Zhaotong was playing with fire and burning himself. It was not that Heiwu Kingdom asked him to stop, but that he took the initiative to withdraw from the Daning court.

And that year, Emperor Heiwu Khan was killed, and Sambru inherited the position of Emperor Khan.

When the Heiwu civil strife was in chaos, this plan was destroyed, and support from the Heiwu country was stopped. Samburu's purge directly led to the killing of a large number of Heiwu officials who were aware of this plan. These secret spies were controlled by Qingya. What's more coincidental is that Chen Leng and Meng Chang'an killed the head of Qingya. After Su Qifan learned about it, he discovered Mu Zhaotong's various actions, so he decisively chose to leave the court.

But over the past few years, he has been sending information to the Black Martial Arts.

The number of secret spies that black martial arts attacked Daning was terrifying. Each of them had their own code name, and Su Qifan's code name was one.

He is called Mr. One.

The blood in the inn's small room was cleaned up, and the body was loaded into the inn to transport garbage outside the city. It had been in and out for more than twenty years. The soldiers guarding the gate were so familiar with the inn's guys. Besides, it was just an ordinary carriage that transported garbage, so naturally they would not carefully check it. Huanran Taoist's body was buried in a pile of rotten vegetable leaves and leftovers and transported it outside the city, and found a place where no one could be buried.

In the afternoon, the inn carriage left the city again. The guy complained to the soldiers guarding the gate with helpless expressions of how inhumane his shopkeeper was and how much wages were paid. The soldiers guarding the gate comforted him with a smile and looked up the people on the carriage. There was no problem with the identity certificate and the official seal, so he let him go. The guy was still muttering to himself, saying that he had no time to take a nap and had to send the shopkeeper's relatives to the Weishui River to take a boat.

The people in the carriage were Xun Zhi and Su Qifan.

After leaving Chang'an City, the two of them went north, stopped by the Wei River, took a boat eastward at the Wei River, and then turned northward into the Ba River. Their target was the northern border.

"Mr. Xun Zhi made the most correct choice."

Su Qifan sat on the boat, wrapped his clothes tightly, and looked at the flowing water on the boat and said, "As long as people's talents and ambitions can be displayed, they can make you have no regrets in your life. In fact, it is enough. We always say that you are an official and a people. Most of the time, this people are very narrow-minded. Because of the existence of countries, there is a difference between people. However, in fact, are people different? People are people. You cannot say that people from other countries are not people because of different countries. They can make billions of people bless them. This is a merit. Whether they are Ning people, black warriors, or people from the Western Regions, as long as they benefit the people, they are saints."

Xun glanced at him directly and didn't say anything.

"I know what sir is worried about."

Su Qifan smiled and said, "Are you worried that you can't get out of Daning? Worry that you will become a prisoner? I have been in Daning for so many years. As far as I know, there are only a few people found by the Tingwei Mansion every year. You think it's dangerous, but I think it's safe. For example... Mr. has been looking around since he got on this ferry. You feel a sense of fear in your heart and release it in your eyes. If the experienced Tingwei Mansion's Tingwei Mansion can tell at a glance that you have a ghost in your heart. And Mr. is such an important person, of course we will not let Mr. take risks. Let me tell you this way. Everyone you come into contact with along the way is our people, including this boat, and even everyone on this boat."

He pointed and said, "Look at these passengers, they seem to be from all over the world, with men and women, but each of them was arranged by me. Does it seem like there is any difference between them and Ning people? No, although they are like me, they are all Bohai people."

Xun Zhi suddenly asked: "Since you have so many people in Daning, why did you useless when Daning destroyed Bohai?"

“There are two reasons.”

Su Qifan explained: "First, Ningguo is not an order issued by the Ningguo court. If the order comes from the court, we will send people back in advance. No matter how strong the Ning army is, it will not defeat our Bohai army so quickly... Second, to be precise, we are no longer Bohai people, but black warriors. If it is not necessary, we will not expose ourselves to send news to the Bohai country."

Su Qifan handed Xun Zhi a pot of wine: "Mr. Xun Zhi, people should be sensible and have a good sense of importance."

Xun Zhi looked at Su Qifan with a strange look, which made Su Qifan feel a little uncomfortable.

"What do you want to say?"

He asked Xun Zhi.

Xun Zhi said: "Just just now, you told me that as long as you can use your talents to display your ambitions to benefit hundreds of millions of people, you are a saint, regardless of national boundaries or nations. Don't you feel contradictory to what you are doing and what you say?"

"That's because my husband and I are different people."

Su Qifan said seriously: "Mr. has the talent to govern the country, the ability to regulate the country, and the power to stabilize the country, so Mr. is destined to have great achievements. Mr. Daning can no longer have great achievements, so he can change his place. What about me? Can what I do compare with what Mr. wants to do? I am just a small person, a small person seeking survival in the gap between two big countries."

Su Qifan let out a long sigh: "I have no choice, sir, you have it."

Xun Zhi fell silent, and Su Qifan also fell silent.

About half an hour later, the boatman and his wife came over with food. After putting down the things, they left silently. From this point, Xun Zhi can be sure that Su Qifan did not lie to him. The boatman and his wife were secret spies of the black martial arts, and the passengers rarely walked in their respective positions. Some looked at the left and some looked at the right. Each person's position seemed casual but had a useful function, so he could be sure that these people were secret spies of the black martial arts.

If he had not contacted Su Qifan, he could not have imagined that there would have been so many black and secret spies infiltrated in Daning. This was just Chang'an. The total number of black and secret spies scattered in Daning would probably have thousands, or even more terrifying. Maybe there were thousands, maybe ten thousand.

So Xun Zhi had to think of the problem he had always ignored before.

How did so many black military secret spies enter Daning? If there were no evidence to pass the level with fake and real evidence, the border defenders would not have been able to put people in.

"Sir, are you thinking, I was bragging just now?"

Su Qifan glanced at Xun Zhi: "Tell me something... Mu Zhaotong had arranged for people from Bohai to enter the pass and to plan things in Chang'an City. The customs clearance certificates for these people entering Daning were all done by my people. There are special people in my business to be responsible for this. Each one can be scattered. Even the experienced border guards can't see it."

Xun Zhi nodded: "So, are you the leader of all the black military secret spies?"

"Sir, you don't understand us. I am just one of them, not the leader. Perhaps, I just know more than others. The person who really controls all the secret spies is not in Daning, but in Heiwuqingya."

Su Qifan looked to the north: "When the teacher arrives at Heiwu, he will come into contact with the people from Qingya. At that time, he will understand what kind of people the Qingya are."
