It is said that Situ Wei asked the Queen Mother to help him get Yin Zhuang, but he didn't want the Queen Mother to keep it for herself after seeing it. The Queen Mother wanted a mere sixth-grade official, so naturally it was not up to others whether she wanted it or not. Gan Kexi gritted his teeth and still had to call Yin.
Zhuang thanked him and Yin Zhuang obeyed his order. The Queen Mother was overjoyed and immediately rewarded him with two hundred taels of silver. She left Yin Zhuang behind and asked Gan Kexi to return to the Yamen.
After coming out of Prince Jin's Mansion, Gan Kexi clenched his fists secretly and sat on his horse, dazed for half a day, shaking the reins and heading south of the city. He had been locked up in the Prince's Mansion for many years, and he was very busy after coming out. He could only roughly recognize the roads in the city. He found Wanshou Palace and inquired about it.
Walking into the Grand View Garden of the antique shop, I saw Ma Sili lazily dozing under the shade of a tree at the door of the shop. I then stepped forward to push him awake.
It took Ma Sili half a day to open his eyes. When he saw his boss coming, he jumped up and said with a smile, "Why is Mr. Gan here in person? Oops, you look so bad? But you don't feel good?" He stood up and offered his seat.
Gan Kexi asked: "Do you know where Yin Zhuang's uncle Yin Qiye is now?"
Ma Sili thought for a while: "This place should be at the casino. Your Excellency is looking for him? Why didn't you bring Azhuang with you today?"
Gan Kexi's face turned darker again: "Take me to Master Yin Qi."
"Oh." Ma Sili rubbed the back of his neck, "May I change my clothes." Then he went in. Gan Kexi stood at the door waiting for him, so naturally he didn't hear the beeping telegram inside.
Suddenly Ma Si came out and led Gan Kexi straight to the casino. At the door, he asked the waiter: "Is Mr. Yin Qi here?"
The waiter said: "I just came here not long ago, and I'm gambling."
The two of them went inside and searched for a long time before they found Master Yin Qi, who was sweating profusely among the crowd. Ma Sili stepped forward, put his arm around his shoulders and shouted, "Master Qi, Master Gan is here."
Master Yin Qi seemed not to have heard him: "Wait until I finish playing this game."
Ma Si was about to grab him, but Gan Kexi waved his hand and said, "Let him finish the game."
The two of them stood waiting in the outer circle, surrounded by gamblers who were going crazy. They heard a sigh of frustration, and Yin Qiye's table was opened. He won less and lost more. Yin Qiye was still waiting to place another bet, so that Ma Si could make a move.
He grabbed the collar at the back of his neck and pulled it out. Yin Qiye yelled: "What are you doing!" When he bumped into Gan Kexi, he was stunned. He looked around him a few more times, but couldn't find his nephew, so he immediately calmed down.
Gan Kexi blushed unconsciously, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Master Qi, please take a step to speak."
Yin Qiye nodded and said to Ma Sili: "My boss is your friend, maybe you can borrow a quiet room with him?"
"This is easy."
Ma Sili stood up and went to look for his employer. Yin Qiye pulled Gan Kexi and whispered in his ear: "There is a man at the table to your right wearing crow blue and a soft scarf. Do you recognize him?"
Gan Kexi glanced at him and immediately recognized that this person was an eunuch from the library. His martial arts was superior to his own. He sneered: "I know. I can't beat him."
Yin Qiye chuckled twice and patted his shoulder: "It doesn't matter, I can beat him." Then he stepped forward, grabbed the man and dragged him back, shouting, "There are two kinds of people I hate most in my life.
Those who are rich and those who help others cheat!"
Everyone else thought they saw the man cheating on a cheater, and they booed and clapped their hands. The man struggled and said, "I have never cheated on a cheater!"
Master Yin Qi didn't hear anything and shouted: "Master Qi has itchy hands and wants to hit someone. Don't come forward if you have nothing to do with him." As expected, no one else came forward.
Gan Kexi clearly heard the two casino thugs talking loudly. "Brother, do you want to come in?"
"Brother, Master Qi's hands are itchy and he wants to beat up a con man. This is a good thing! Our boss will treat him to some melon seeds later to thank him."
"Then...what if Master Qi doesn't have a firm grip?"
"Master Qi has fought with us many times, and he has never been unstable."
"Brother is talking about it. Thank you for your hard work, Master Qi."
The thugs pretended to be nothing, and watched helplessly as Master Yin Qi grabbed the man and drove him back. Gan Kexi was secretly amused.
The three of them walked to the backyard of the casino. There were several handymen in the courtyard. Seeing the fight, they all ran away. They were all quiet. Yin Qiye casually threw the man on the bricks. The man climbed on
When he got up and looked around, he saw that Gan Kexi was slowly walking out of the corridor, leaning against the pillar with his arms folded, showing no intention of intervening. Before he could speak, Yin Qiye went up and struck out with a black tiger move to dig out the heart. The man dodged to avoid it, and the two of them fought.
Gan Kexi just watched casually, but after four or five moves, he could tell: Master Yin Qi was not bragging, and his colleagues in the library were really no match for him. He couldn't help but be secretly shocked by the capabilities of SHIELD - a group of Green Foresters
, his martial arts skills are higher than those of the palace guards.
Suddenly he heard a few clicks and the man exclaimed: "You are using a hidden weapon!"
Yin Qiye said: "Hidden weapons are the basic skills of Green Forest people, don't you know how to do it?"
"What is this?"
Gan Kexi looked over and saw that Master Yin Qi was holding a dagger in his right hand and pressing it against his colleague's neck. He was also holding something in his left hand. The thing had a handle, and a steel wire came out of the handle to circle the opponent in a circle and a half.
There was a hook on the end of the wire, which hooked the man's skirt. Yin Qiye smiled and said: "This thing is freshly made, and it hasn't been named yet. Some people suggested calling it Pansi Cave, and another suggested calling it Blood Droplet. You
What should I call it?"
The man said: "I'm not a cheater. Why is this seventh master looking for me?"
Master Yin Qi said: "It's nothing, I just see that you don't like it." He slapped him on the back of the neck to knock him unconscious, then casually took off the gourd from his waist and gave him half a bottle of something unknown.
The hole in the silk thread appeared, and he turned to Gan Kexi and said, "Just leave him here. If he is unlucky and a mouse chews his ear, he will be unlucky." Gan Kexi nodded with a smile, and the two turned and left.
After they left, two men jumped down from the roof, took out handcuffs and leg irons, cuffed the man, put them in a linen bag, and carried him away.
When Yin and Gan came back from the backyard, Ma Sili had borrowed the quiet room, and the three of them went to sit down upstairs in the casino. Gan Kexi sighed softly: "Qi Ye, I can't stand you." Then he said that the Queen Mother wanted to
Going to Yinzhuang.
Master Yin Qi was stunned for a long time and snorted coldly: "The old witch probably thinks this is a great favor."
Ma Sili said angrily: "In their eyes, only their own people are human beings, and no one else is human."
Gan Kexi stood up and bowed: "I am incompetent."
Yin Qiye said: "Where are you incompetent? The imperial city's army is in chaos, and ordinary people cannot handle it. Because this kind of yamen contains too much information, if it is not a master with a high IQ, his brain can't move at all. Your prince is not a fool. You
Now that my sister is gone, if there was someone else who could take over, he would have replaced you long ago, do you believe it?"
Gan Kexi was silent for a long time, then he said: "They can't live their happy life for long."
Yin Qiye said: "You can be lazy if you want. Jin has reached the crater of the volcano and is only one step away from erupting."
Gan Kexi was stunned: "Are you at the crater? I think it's a bit chaotic, but we haven't reached that level yet."
Yin Qiye said with his fingers: "The leader of Xizuo was assassinated, the Imperial City was burned, His Highness the Second Highness was assassinated, and the Crown Prince was exposed. These things without exception show that there are fatal flaws in the Jin Dynasty royal family, but none of them have been broken.
The case. From the King of Jin himself to the civil and military ministers, they didn’t realize that the Jin Kingdom was in danger, and they were still happily building railways. I really can’t shed tears until I see the coffin. I, Zhuang’er, am a smart child and know how to protect myself. Let him play.
It was an experience for a while.”
Jia Cong only coaxed Gan Kexi to leave Jin and go to North America, but did not let him participate in the operation, so he did not tell him the truth. Gan Kexi thought that these things were done by the Japanese. When he thought about it, the Federation had made it clear that they wanted to seize the chariots and horses.
In the Kingdom of Jin, it was okay to let Azhuang hang out under the Queen Mother for a few days. Seeing Master Yin Qi's appearance of not being afraid of anything, he felt relieved and said: "When this chaos is over... I want to go to North America."
Yin Qiye nodded and said: "That's right. North America is a vast country with no restrictions and is the most suitable place for young people."
Ma Sili said: "My lord, I used to make a lot of money. After I got my humble job, I would have free time to play in North America. But I heard that wild beasts are rampant in that area and they hunt every day."
Gan Kexi said calmly: "I still have some ideas about hunting skills." Suddenly he thought of the people he met in Jin State, from Situ Wei to Zhang Wenlan, and went through them all, and he felt a sense of vicissitudes of life. He walked to
He stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands and recited a poem. Yin Qiye and Ma Sili cheered in unison. Gan Kexi smiled slightly and became relaxed.
A few days later, Zhang Wenlan couldn't get any information about the Imperial City Si's Yamen, so he decided to draw a detailed map of Taiyuan and measure the entire Taiyuan City. No matter where the Imperial City Si was hiding, he couldn't move to the suburbs, right? Zhang Su
He found an opportunity to report the matter to King Jin. King Jin felt that this young man was quite energetic, so instead of taking care of him, he ordered his subordinates to take care of him.
Zhang Wenlan thought that a government office like the Imperial City Department would not be too far away from Prince Jin's Mansion, so he started from near Prince Jin's Mansion. Carrying tools and leading his assistants to leave early and come back late. Counting his luck, it was only the fourth day, and he was making arrangements.
He was asked to pull a rope to measure the length of a small street. When he turned around, he saw Yin Zhuang coming on horseback.
Zhang Wenlan jumped up with joy: "A-Zhuang, A-Zhuang! It's me, it's me!" Upon seeing this, Yin Zhuang got off his horse and raised his hands to say hello. Zhang Wenlan also raised his hands in return. Then he grabbed Yin Zhuang and pulled him to the side of the road, "A-Zhuang, I want to ask you.
Can I ask some questions?"
Yin Zhuang said: "I can't tell you where the Imperial City Si Yamen is."
Zhang Wenlan shook his head: "It's not that. I'm asking about your Lord Gan."
"Then I can't tell you."
Zhang Wenlan thought for a while: "Well, I'll ask you some questions. If the answer is correct, you will nod; if not, shake your head. This doesn't count as you telling me."
Yin Zhuang looked at him and was speechless.
Zhang Wenlan knew that this was tacit consent. The corners of his mouth curled up, and he picked up the drawing board with one hand and the charcoal with the other. "Axi, does he like sweets?"
Yin Zhuang was stunned: "How did I know this?"
Zhang Wenlan was stumped: "How come you don't even know this? You two are friends. Think about it!"
"I never paid such careful attention." Yin Zhuang thought about it for a long time, "It seems..." He nodded hesitantly.
Zhang Wenlan neatly recorded it on the paper. "Thank you. Does he like to eat spicy food?" Yin Zhuang shook his head heavily. "Does he like to eat salty food?" Yin Zhuang nodded slightly. "Does he like to eat meat? Does he like to eat pork? Yes.
Do you eat fish?...Do you like vegetables? Do you like eggplants? Do you like leeks?...Does he like red? Does he like blue?...Does he like Li Bai? Does he like Wang Wei?..."Some Yin Zhuang
Yes, he said "I don't know" if he didn't know. Yin Zhuang was so patient that he listened to his question for half an hour.
Zhang Wenlan smiled and bowed to the ground: "Thank you very much. Azhuang, I owe you a favor."
Yin Zhuang said: "Two." He took the charcoal from his hand and turned to the top page of the drawing board. It was a map of this area that Zhang Wenlan enlarged from the existing Taiyuan map. Yin Zhuang casually found it in a small street
He drew a circle, put down his pen and left.
Zhang Wenlan let out a low growl and shouted towards Yin Zhuang's back: "I'm so grateful! I'll treat you to a drink!" Yin Zhuang waved his hand and got on his horse.
At dusk that day, Zhang Wenlan led people to the small street painted by Yin Zhuang, figuring out which house was the Imperial City's Yamen. He didn't know that just a moment before they turned into the street, a child was delivered to Gan Kexi.
He received a letter. The letter was written by Yin Zhuang, and there were only four words on it: "Come out of the gate." Gan Kexi got up and went out.
Just as he stepped out of the door, he suddenly saw Zhang Wenlan holding the drawing board and waving his arms to yell at someone to pull the rope. The two bumped into each other face to face. Zhang Wenlan was pleasantly surprised! He waved and said: "Master Xiao Gan, we are really destined! Let's have dinner together tonight.
Come on, I'll be the host."
Gan Kexi was stunned for a long time: "Why is Mr. Zhang here?"
"I'm going to draw a new map of Taiyuan." Zhang Wenlan came forward and said, "It happened to be that the streets were measured here. It's really tight." What a coincidence! The corner of Gan Kexi's mouth moved slightly. When did Yin Zhuang get bribed by this guy?
Zhang Wenlan had already put her arm around his waist, "It's hot now. I know a restaurant with a large pond at the back that raises lotus root, fish and shrimp. The cook is good at using lotus leaves and lotus flowers to make various dishes and snacks, which are also appetizing.
It also clears away heat and relieves summer heat. If you don’t try it, it’s a waste of time for you to come to this world!”
Gan Kexi said: "I still have a lot of things to do."
"Then you have to eat too, right?" Zhang Wenlan said, "Anyway, I'm not done here yet. Let's go together later?" Without waiting for anyone to answer, he snapped his fingers and said, "That's it!" He waved his hand and turned around.
Go do something.
Gan Kexi stood at the door of the yamen for half a day before moving. Just now Zhang Wenlan stuffed something into his arms, about half the size of a fist, neither hard nor soft. Within a few steps from the door to the study, Gan Kexi had already put something in his arms.
, the Crown Princess’s mother-in-law and many other possibilities guessed what the thing was. After returning to the room and sitting down, she took the thing out of her arms and saw that it was a paper bag. When she opened the paper bag, there was a piece of red bean glutinous rice cake lying inside.
Gan Kexi stared at the cake for a long time, then picked it up and took a bite. Fortunately, it was sweet but not greasy, which coincided with his taste.
He had an excellent memory, and he immediately remembered that one day he and Yin Zhuang were out on business, and both of them were a little hungry when they came back. Passing by a snack shop, he invited Yin Zhuang to have snacks. Yin Zhuang ordered walnut cakes, and he ordered red bean glutinous rice.
Gan Kexi rolled his eyes. Yin Zhuang, the traitor, had no time to think about his work. After eating the rice cakes and packing up his official documents, he straightened his clothes and told the people below him that he would be back later.
Take a step outside.
Zhang Wenlan was waiting at the door. When she saw him coming out, she shouted: "We'll stop here today and call it a day!"
Gan Kexi didn't look at him. "What did Yin Zhuang tell you?"
"It's nothing." Zhang Wenlan said seriously, "He didn't say anything, really."
