This fur goods merchant is naturally Yuan Shou. He knows Shen Tang, but Shen Tang naturally does not know that he is his subordinate. However, hidden in the hem of his clothes, there is the mark of Dark Night Pavilion. This mark, Only the real people from the Dark Night Pavilion will appear, and those peripheral members will not appear at all.
Therefore, Shen Tang just bought a lot of things in order to contact An Ye Pavilion.
After opening the letter, there was a message from Mingyang to Shen Tang. However, Mingyang and others had been here in Zhongdu for less than a month, and they only had one or two big cats and kittens. Therefore, after detection, Basically, all the information can be found on the surface. Some deeper information is naturally impossible to know.
However, even so, it was of great help to Shen Tang. For example, on this letter, almost all the ministers in the court were listed, which was at least more comprehensive than the one compiled by Li Duo. There are many. In addition, it includes the hobbies, addresses, etc. of these officials, as well as the divisions and hostile relationships of the various forces in the court.
Even if it is just information that can be explored on the surface, Shen Tang can get a glimpse of some deeper relationships.
For example, Wendy Hanbu, the Second Young Master of Marshal You's Mansion, Leng Zhuohu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Gao Xiliang, the Yin of Daxing Mansion, etc. whom I met in the streets today, all appeared on the paper.
As for the last few conversations between the two, they actually talked about the news about the 800 Beiwei Army. Obviously, the Beiwei Army had been hiding outside Zhongdu in accordance with Shen Tang's order.
Fanyang County is located in the north of Zhuozhou, on the border between Zhuozhou and Daxing Prefecture. If an accident really occurs, it only takes more than half an hour for the eight hundred Wei troops to rush to Shen Tang's side.
Among those banknotes, Shen Tang also issued further orders to Mingyang.
The first is to develop Zhongdu’s information network as quickly as possible, but you must be careful. This is the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and there are many eyes from all sides. If you are not careful, others will notice your traces. The second thing is Ask Mingyang to contact other members of the Dark Night Pavilion and the Shao family's secret post in the North to ensure that the transaction between Wan Jiang and others and Gao Cunfu's horses is successfully completed, and those precious horses are transported back to Sizhou.
The third thing is to ask Mingyang to arrange to contact Gao Cunfu and his team to complete the first transaction.
After this peace negotiation, he has no use for Gao Cunfu anymore. Shen Tang is not sure whether this transaction can continue. However, while the peace negotiation has not yet concluded, Gao Cunfu will not take risks for some business.
With such a large amount of profit, Shen Tang would naturally not take advantage of Gao Cunfu.
As for whether the people under Lu Feng's command or the Shao family would go, Shen Tang didn't say clearly. Thinking about it, Mingyang would naturally be able to arrange for the right person to go and take over.
While Shen Tang was looking at the news from Mingyang, Wan Yanyong in the imperial city was frowning.
He looked at the eunuch in front of him and asked again, "You mean, that girl Yongqing arrived before you could take action, and then frightened that dandy boy away?"
Today, after what happened in the market, Wan Yanyong had already asked his eunuchs to hide aside with orders. As long as Shen Tang was in danger, someone would appear and escort Shen Tang away. But he didn't expect that his After some arrangements, something unexpected happened.
"Is that girl from Yongqing passing by?" Wanyanyong had no idea what Wanyanyue had to do with this matter.
The eunuch hesitated for a moment, and then said carefully, "Your Majesty, the news I received is that after the princess left Chunyueju, she rushed directly to the market, and the time it took was extremely long. It was obvious that she went directly and was very urgent.
In addition, the maid next to the princess rushes first..."
"After the matter was over, Princess Yongqing returned directly to Chunyue Center without staying outside."
Wan Yanyong nodded slightly, "So, this girl must have rushed there deliberately. Could it be Wan Yan Hao's order? Go and check secretly to see if the girl has had contact with these people, but don't disturb her.
Come to that girl so that she won't worry."
"Slave obeys the order!"
The eunuch bowed and retreated, and Wan Yanyong's expression became thoughtful again, "This time, only a minister from the Ministry of Personnel came out, but it was enough..."...
Chunyue was in the middle. After finishing the things in the market, Wanyan Yue returned directly. Moreover, after entering the attic, she did not move. Even she only took a few bites of dinner and then gave up.
Cui'er accompanied her with a bit of worry. Her young lady had been restless for the past two days, so how could she rest assured.
"Miss, do you know the envoy from the Song Dynasty?" After what happened today, the little girl still doesn't know that the reason why her young lady is acting like this must have something to do with the envoy from the Song Dynasty. She even has a guess,
I'm just not sure.
Wanyan Yue's eyes fluctuated for a moment and he nodded hesitantly.
Cui'er rolled her eyes and said, "Miss, today I saw the envoy named Shen Tang. He looked so young, and everyone else actually obeyed his orders. I guess he is the son of a high-ranking official from the Southern Kingdom, who came to get gold plating."
"nonsense!"
Wanyan Yue glared at Cui'er fiercely, "Young Master Shen is extremely talented and learned, and he is the number one scholar in the southern country. You know that the number one scholar is the most knowledgeable person among the young people in a country. How can a child of a high-ranking official be able to do that?
Comparable?"
"Maybe, maybe it's a rumor? After all, we haven't seen whether he really won the top prize."
"You little girl, can I still lie to you, young lady? Besides, this is what my father told me. You see, this Journey to the West is extremely interesting and was written by Mr. Shen himself."
With that said, he handed the precious booklet to Cui'er for a glance, but then took it back.
"What is Journey to the West? Is it a picture book?" Cui'er asked curiously, "Why haven't you seen it before?"
Wanyan Yue smiled proudly, "This is written by Mr. Shen, and this is the only one in the world. You will be surprised if you have seen it..."
"Is it really that interesting?" Cui'er asked with wide eyes.
In this era, there are too few entertainment activities. For these young ladies and maids, those picture books are extremely rare things. Even if it is a picture book that I have read countless times, I will relish it again when I read it, let alone a new picture book?
Rolling her eyelids, Wanyan Yue had a feeling that she was playing the piano to others. How could others know the excitement of Journey to the West?
"Miss, how about you tell me this? You can also give me some insights..." Cui'er approached Wanyan Yue and said flatteringly.
