Tang Yin's words were so understated that Zhao Juke broke out in cold sweat. He shuddered and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, sir. Even if I have the courage, I won't dare to betray you. What's more, the villain's future wealth will be
I have to rely on adults a lot on the way!"
Zhao Ju has been in business for many years and is a veteran in the shopping mall. He is extremely shrewd. How could he not hear the underlying meaning of Tang Yin's words?
Tang Yin was suspicious by nature. This time he was led by Zhao Ju to Mo Country. He was about to enter the capital. He was also afraid that Zhao Ju would secretly betray him for profit, so he pretended to use casual words to warn Zhao Ju. When he saw Zhao Ju,
With a look of fright on his face, he immediately narrowed his eyes and said softly with a smile: "Brother Zhao is willing to help me sincerely. I am very grateful. When I return to China, I will thank Brother Zhao again."
"Ah, you are so polite, sir." Zhao Ju swallowed and secretly wiped away the cold sweat.
After all the goods were loaded on the ship, the sails were quickly raised amidst the shouts of the servants, and the ship began to slowly move towards the other side of the river.
Everyone crossed the river smoothly, and within half an hour, the cargo ship docked at the opposite dock. After everyone landed, Zhao Ju led the way into Zhenjiang City.
The scale of Zhenjiang City is no less than that of Yancheng. It is even larger and more prosperous than Yancheng. People come and go in the streets of the city, and there is constant traffic. There are many shops on both sides of the streets, giving it a peaceful and prosperous scene.
Along the way, Tang Yin discovered an interesting point. Mo Country was prosperous, but its military strength was not very strong, at least not like Feng Country. No matter where you go, you can see groups of soldiers. Of course, this is also
It is easy to understand that there has been no war in Mo for many years, so it is inevitable that the military should be neglected and the government should be emphasized.
Military is the major event of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival. In an era when imperial power is declining and princes and states are rising together, no matter how strong the country is, not paying attention to military affairs is like digging in the grave and bringing about self-destruction. Tang Yin sneered in his heart, Taiping
Living a life that is too comfortable may not necessarily be a good thing.
Zhao Ju directly took Tang Yin and his party to his home. In fact, Zhao Ju's hometown was not in the capital. He just bought a house in Zhenjiang City to facilitate business and to facilitate communication with the royal court's dignitaries. He rarely came here on weekdays.
Live, it comes in handy now.
Entering the hall of the house, Tang Yin first arranged for the secret assassins to go out and let them get in touch with his informants, and then said to Zhao Ju straight to the point: "Brother Zhao, I wonder if you can arrange for me to meet the second prince of Mo State.
Shao Fang?"
Zhao Ju pondered for a moment, and then said cautiously: "His Second Highness is a distinguished person. He is not something ordinary people can see. Let me go and give it a try!"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes and felt that Zhao Ju was right. If a businessman like him went to visit directly, how could the dignified second prince receive him? He pondered for a moment and asked: "Does Shao Fang have anything?
Like?"
This time Zhao Ju answered happily, without thinking, and said: "Your Highness has always been fond of spiritual martial arts and likes to make friends with spiritual martial arts masters!"
Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then changed his mind, smiled, and said: "This is easy to handle!" As he spoke, he turned back and glanced at Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao who were standing behind him.
Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao felt a little uncomfortable when Tang Yin looked at them, and they asked blankly: "What do you mean, sir..."
Tang Yin said to Zhao Ju: "Since Shao Fang likes Lingwu, Brother Zhao will go to see him by recommending Lingwu talents and fall in love with him. In this way, it will not be difficult to meet Shao Fang."
Zhao Ju understood what he meant. He looked up at the Shangguan brothers who looked like two door gods and nodded secretly. There was no need to ask about their spiritual and martial arts skills. Just looking at their big and round figures was scary enough. For Tang Yin,
Zhao Ju was quite impressed by his quick response. He smiled and asked, "When do you plan to meet with His Highness the Second Highness?"
"Without further delay, let's do it tonight!"
"Oh...Okay! Let's go to the Young Master's Mansion tonight!" Shao Fang is a prince, but not a prince. He has his own mansion outside the palace. Although Zhao Ju felt that it was not good to visit at night, because of Tang Yin's special status,
It's only more convenient to go at night to avoid people's eyes and ears.
In the afternoon, the secret arrow personnel contacted the informants of Tianyan and Diwang without much trouble, and brought back the two spy leaders.
These two people are the person in charge of Tianyan and Diwang respectively in Zhenjiang City. They have outstanding abilities and have won the trust of Letian and Ai Jia. After seeing Tang Yin, they both knelt down on one knee, intervened and saluted:
"My subordinate Zhao Ting (Zhang Shi) meets your lord!"
Although the two of them had high status in Tianyan and Diwang, this was the first time they had such close contact with Tang Yin, and they were both a little excited.
Tang Yin smiled at the two of them, waved his hand, motioning for them to get up, and then asked: "How long have you been in Zhenjiang City?"
Zhao Ting and Zhang Shi said in unison: "It's been eight days!" They were sent to Mo State first, and they rode fast horses, so they were naturally much faster than Tang Yin's caravan.
Tang Yin nodded and asked again: "Did everything go well when you arrived?"
Zhao Ting smiled and said: "It went very well! The border defense of Mo Country is not very tight, so we didn't spend much time sneaking in. Now the brothers are already lurking in Zhenjiang City."
"Yeah!" Tang Yin said with a smile as he was very satisfied with the efficiency and capabilities of Tianyan and Diwang, "What's the current situation of King Mo's court?"
"Back to your lord, King Shao Ting of Mo State is very old, but he has not appointed a crown prince for a long time. Several of his sons are fighting openly and secretly for the crown prince. At present, the most powerful people in the royal court are the Right Chancellor Dong Sheng and the Grand Tutor Zhang Rong.
Zhang Rong and the third prince Shao Bo are of the same mind. As for Dong Sheng, it is hard to tell which side he is leaning towards. He has never expressed his stance on opposing Chu. In addition, Zhang Rong also supports Zhong Tian and is very hostile to our Tianyuan Army.
, and often encourage Shao Ting in the royal court to send troops to assist Zhong Tian and destroy our Tianyuan Army!"
What Zhao Ting said was basically the same as what Zhao Ju said. Tang Yin sneered while listening. After Zhao Ting came to an end, he asked with a smile: "What is King Mo's attitude towards our Tianyuan Army?"
"It seems that he has no attitude..." Zhao Ting said uncertainly.
Zhang Shi said at this time: "No! Based on the judgment of my subordinates, Shao Ting also supports Zhong Tian. However, the battle situation is not clear yet, and Zhong Tian is at a disadvantage, so Shao Ting did not send troops. This has not happened in Mo country for decades.
There has been a large-scale war, so King Mo does not want to fight an uncertain battle, let alone a head-on confrontation with our army as the main force. If Zhong Tian now has an advantage over our army, then Mo will definitely send troops for reinforcements without hesitation, and fight with
Ning Guo and Zhong Tian join forces to besiege our army!"
Listening to Zhang Shi's analysis, Tang Yin nodded repeatedly. Just as Qiu Zhen said, King Mo is an indecisive monarch, and he should really make good use of his indecisive personality and make sure to stabilize the country of Mo first.
That night, the two brothers Tang Yin, Zong Yuan, Zhao Ju and Shangguan went to Shaofang's Gongzi Mansion. In addition, secret arrow personnel headed by Cheng Jin and Jiang Mo also followed secretly, lurking around the Gongzi Mansion. If something went wrong, they could be the first to attack the Gongzi Mansion.
Time rushed into the house to provide support.
When he arrived at the gate of the Young Master's Mansion, Zhao Ju quickly stepped forward, bowed to the guards at the door, and said with a smile on his face: "Young man, Zhao Ju, came here to pay homage to His Highness the Second Highness!"
"Zhao Ju?" The guards at the palace had never heard of this name. They looked Zhao Ju up and down, and saw that he was not dressed like a dignitary. They waved their hands and said, "Get out, get out, get out! Your Highness, is this you?"
You can see me if you want?!"
"Haha, fellow military lords, this villain is here to recommend talents to His Highness. If you just drive this villain away and let His Highness know about it in the future, just blame it on you..." After saying this, Zhao Ju
He did not continue and let the guards figure it out for themselves.
"Recommended talents? What talents?"
"It's these two!" Zhao Ju turned sideways and pointed at the two brothers Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao behind him.
When the guards looked up, they were all shocked. They couldn't help but secretly mutter in their hearts, why do these two people look exactly the same? What did they eat to grow up, and why do they grow so tall and powerful?
"The two of them are..."
Zhao Ju smiled and said: "They are all outstanding and rare spiritual martial arts talents!"
"Oh?" After hearing this, a man dressed as a captain walked out of the guards, squinted at the two Shangguan brothers, sneered, and said, "Don't just look scary on the outside, but it's empty on the inside!"
"If Master Jun doesn't believe it, you can give it a try!"
"Huh! That's exactly what I meant!" The guard captain quickly walked up to the two Shangguan brothers, stretched out his hands, condensed his spiritual energy, and after a long time of effort, he covered his two palms with spiritual armor, and then shouted
With one sound, he punched Shangguan Yuanbiao in the face.
His cultivation level could not even complete the semi-spiritual armor transformation, so he could only be regarded as a beginner. For such a person, Shangguan Yuanbiao could not pay attention to him. He did not even have the desire to fight. He just stepped down slightly and let him pass.
The opponent's fist, then a kick, hit the guard captain in the chest.
Bang!
This kick was so strong that the captain of the guard screamed and flew backwards. With a muffled thud, he flew three meters away before falling to the ground. Looking at his breastplate, there was a big dent downward.
Damn it, without the protection of the breastplate, several of his ribs could have been broken by Shangguan Yuanbiao's kick.
The captain of the guard lay on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time. The guards around him hurriedly ran forward and helped him with all kinds of help. Supported by everyone, the captain of the guard finally stood up, grinning and looking at it in disbelief.
Shangguan Yuan Biao held his breath for a long time before he could finally catch his breath. He swallowed, nodded, and said: "Awesome! You wait a moment, I will report to His Highness!"
The captain of the guard did not hold grudges. Instead, he admired Shangguan Yuan Biao from the bottom of his heart. He did not embarrass them any more and immediately ran to the mansion.
After waiting for about two cups of tea, the guard captain came out and said to Zhao Ju: "Your Highness invites you!"
"Thank you, thank you so much!" Zhao Ju was overjoyed when he heard this and bowed to the captain of the guard repeatedly.
