Sun Gang yelled from the side: "How dare you, Mr. Liu has already discovered that something is wrong with you, and you still haven't taken it seriously!"
Xu Sanpi fell to his knees with a plop, a look of grievance on his face: "Boss Sun, I really don't know anything. My eldest brother even gave up his life for you. When we Xu family brothers come out to hang out, we always pay attention to the word "righteousness".
How could you possibly betray your lord?"
"You're still not honest!" Sun Gang drew out his nine-section whip and was about to beat him.
"Wait a minute." Liu Ziguang stopped Sun Gang and said warmly: "Sanpi, I didn't say you betrayed me. You were originally Mr. Qi's person, so there is no betrayal. It's just that I don't like to be kept in the dark about everything. Who are you?
What is your identity? What is Mr. Qi’s identity?”
Xu Sanpi was silent for a long time and then said: "My lord, your eyes are blazing. I admit that I am the one who posted this letter, but I am by no means your enemy. I joined the car dealer some time ago because I was appointed by the organization to assist Boss Sun and Master Liu."
, and jointly deal with the enemies of the imperial court."
"What organization? Who is the enemy of the imperial court in your mouth? Is it the eunuch party...or the rear party?"
"Well." Xu Sanpi smiled freely, "You have your own decision in your heart."
Liu Ziguang raised the letter in his hand: "This information, as well as the last information, were all sent by you, right? How did your organization obtain such top-secret information?"
"This information is like a dish. The adults are the diners. As long as they are happy eating, why should they care about how the dish is made?" Xu Sanpi said.
"You dare to talk nonsense!" Sun Gang raised the steel whip again.
"Don't be angry, sir. The organization is highly confidential. Without the approval from above, I can't tell you even if I'm beaten to death. If Mr. Liu has any questions or needs help, you can go to the contact channel mentioned by Mr. Qi before.
Mr. Qi." Xu Sanpi spoke without squinting.
"Very good, you can go down and do your business as usual, as if nothing happened." Liu Ziguang waved his hand to Xu Sanpi to leave.
"Sir, do you want him..." Sun Gang made a motion of slitting his neck.
"We are friends, not enemies. There will be many opportunities for us to cooperate with this 'organization' in the future." Liu Ziguang smiled meaningfully.
The house on Beixin Street still had a pair of broken red lanterns hanging in front of the door. The door was closed tightly, as if no one had lived there for a long time. In the yard, a deaf and mute old man was sweeping the floor slowly.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed through his dim eyes, and he stared at a letter under the screen wall. Who could have delivered the secret letter without his eyes and ears? How serious is Qinggong!
The old man picked up the secret letter and stuffed it into his arms, went back to the house, took out a basket, and went to the street to buy groceries. Looking at his rickety figure gradually receding, the white cat squatting on the wall licked it.
paw…..
The old man walked around the street. The secret letter had been transferred to another person through several hands. A pair of strong hands tore open the envelope, took out the letter paper and looked at it for a few times. Then he took out a small iron box from the desk and took it.
Put a few blue crystals into the inkstone, dissolve them with water, take out the brush and dip it in it, and smear it on the letter paper. After a while, some small blue characters appeared in the gaps between the black brush characters. After reading,
The man smiled calmly: "Liu Ziguang finally took the initiative to ask us for help."
"Master Qi, what kind of help does Liu Ziguang ask you to do?" An old man wearing a water cloud fragrant gauze robe next to him asked in a deep voice.
"He asked us to provide the name of Dongchang's spy in the palace. If we can dig out this person who Dongchang has hidden in the palace, I believe his status among the Queen Mother's party will be even better." Mr. Qi is the so-called Qi.
Sir, shook his bright red python robe, stood up, took two steps and said.
"Very good, then tell him that Liu Ziguang is a member of the emperor, and he has come to the same destination as us by different means. It will be beneficial to us if he can prosper in the South Factory," the old man said.
"Your Majesty, I appreciate it, but the secret agent hidden in the palace is the top secret of Dongchang. Even if I am the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards, I can't access it. I'm afraid I can't help you with this information..."
"It's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. You can tell him how to get this name," the old man said.
"What is said is absolutely true. Dongchang's spies are all over the world, even worse than Jinyiwei. They are just spies who hang out in the market. There are spies hiding in the palace and local government offices, as well as relatives of the emperor, and officials in the border areas.
The informants are all top secret, and the list is hidden in the secret room of Dongchang Yamen, under the personal control of Yang Bo. I have tried to steal this list many times but failed. Now I might as well tell Liu Ziguang this way. Whether he can succeed or not depends on his luck.
.”
"I'll leave this matter to you. You must win over Liu Ziguang. Nowadays, the overt and covert fights between the eunuchs and the rear parties are getting more and more intense. I think you might as well reveal our background and make an appointment to talk openly and honestly.
Let's talk to him. This person will definitely be of great use in the future. There are some trivial matters in the house, so I'll take my leave." The old man stood up and said goodbye. Mr. Qi walked to the door and watched him get on the sedan and leave before returning.
Mr. Qi wrote a letter and called someone over and said, "Give this to 4587." The man accepted the order, changed into ordinary clothes and went out of the back door of the Qi Mansion. He walked around twice and then got into a room.
A donkey cart went to the Confucius Temple. After getting off, another person got on the cart and took away the letters hidden in the cart. Then the man walked into a bookstore and browsed a few books before leaving.
, Xu Sanpi came in, picked up the book that the man had read just now, quietly took out the letter inside, hid it very secretly on his body, and turned around to leave the bookstore.
Xu Sanpi returned to his hut at Ziguang Automobile Dealers, took out the letter and browsed it quickly. He breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "Three years and three years, and finally got through..." Then he went to find Liu Ziguang.
This time he walked into Liu Ziguang's study openly and openly, "Sir, Mr. Qi invites you..."
That night, in the house on Beixin Street, Liu Ziguang met the mysterious Mr. Qi again. The two sat in the back house, with only Xu Sanpi waiting on them.
"Master Liu, we have not dealt with each other once or twice. There is no need to boast about my character. Previously, due to various reasons, I did not reveal my true identity. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, the court is in danger and the emperor is in danger. In order to be more candid
I have to disclose all my identities." After saying that, he winked at Xu Sanpi.
"Mr. Qi's real name is Qi Zhenming. He was the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty. He was in charge of the Fusi of Beizhen and the nationwide patrols and arrests." Xu Sanpi said.
As expected, it was an official. Liu Ziguang nodded calmly and said lightly: "I've been looking forward to it for a long time."
"Jinyiwei is just my superficial identity. My true identity is the Zuo Guardian of the Donglin Party. I have been hiding my identity in order to one day eradicate the traitors and restore a peaceful world to the people. We in the Donglin Party are all loyal to the emperor. On this point
We are fellow travelers with Mr. Liu." Mr. Qi's eyes were shining, and he stared at Liu Ziguang and said sincerely.
"I see, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Haha, Mr. Liu, please listen to me as I arrive slowly." When it came time to talk about the crucial matter, Xu Sanpi bowed consciously and said, "I'll go and be on guard outside." He then left the room, leaving the two of them talking in secret.
In the early days, the Donglin Party was just a small salon-like group composed of a group of scholars gathered around Donglin Academy. "After giving lectures, they often satirized the government and judged people."
The Sanwu gentry, various political representatives in and out of government, southeastern urban forces, and certain local powerful factions gradually joined in to form a powerful political group. When the late emperor was here, the Donglin Party was incompatible with the Eunuch Party.
When the new emperor succeeded to the throne and Jiu Qian was in power, he began to carry out a bloody suppression of the Donglin Party members. A large number of members had their homes confiscated and exterminated, but many people survived. Qi Zhenming was one of them. Not only did he survive,
He also sneaked into the Jin Yiwei, and through his own efforts, he reached the position of deputy commander, and gained a lot of real power. He used his authority to protect many Donglin Party members, and secretly rebuilt the party organization, no longer blindly recruiting scholars, but
It has attracted many members of the three religions and nine streams who have a bloody feud with the eunuch party, and Xu Sanpi is one of them.
The highest goal of the Donglin Party is to produce eunuchs and queens to assist the little emperor in governing the country. When Qi Zhenming found out that Liu Ziguang was in contact with the little emperor, he began to contact him and win over him, hoping that one day he would be useful. Now this day has finally come
Here we are, according to the information we have, a huge change is coming. Since everyone wants to work together, we can no longer hide it, so today's meeting took place.
Regarding the list of Dongchang's top spies that Liu Ziguang needed, Qi Zhenming said that he could not provide it for the time being. Although Jinyiwei and Dongchang were both 9,000-year-old subordinates, they also had a competitive relationship with each other. If he wanted to get the list, he had to steal it himself. Qi Zhenming still
It provides a detailed map of the Dongchang Yamen, a guard changing schedule, the location of the secret room and important information.
"The struggle between the two gangs is getting more and more intense, and a big fight is about to take place. We just sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. When they are both injured, we can come out to clean up the mess. From now on, I will provide the intelligence on the eunuch party, and the intelligence on the rear party will be helpful.
Mr. Liu. I wish Mr. Liu success in stealing the list, rising in the South Factory, and becoming famous." Qi Zhenming raised his tea cup and toasted Liu Ziguang with tea instead of wine.
"It's easy to say, everyone should cooperate sincerely and be loyal to the emperor." Liu Ziguang toasted to welcome him. He didn't expect that this mysterious third party was actually the Donglin Party, and it was also covered by the identity of the deputy commander of the Jin Yiwei. It was really unbelievable. But this is okay,
At least he is no longer alone, and the success rate of launching a military coup is greatly improved.
Having said that, both parties still did not reveal their true strength. They only informed each other of some irrelevant information, discussed future contact methods, and ended the meeting.
On the way back, Liu Ziguang asked Xu Sanpi: "Sanpi, what is your status in Jinyiwei and the organization?"
Xu Sanpi replied respectfully: "The younger one is Jin Yiwei Baihu, the deputy head of the Shadow Hall in the organization, code name 4587."
