Chapter 140 The first old man of the Sui Dynasty

(Thank you very much to ‘Fadudu’ for your generous support and monthly ticket support.)

Qin'anhou Mansion, the original martial arts training ground, has completely turned into a wild playground for the blood-maned horses and the little lynx. At this time, Wang Junlin was feeding the blood-maned horses and the little lynx with his own hands. The blood-maned horses were full.

After that, he rubbed his head against Wang Junlin's body affectionately, while the little lynx burrowed hard into Wang Junlin's arms, and occasionally licked Wang Junlin's face with its little barbed tongue.

Wang Junlin simply hugged the little lynx, jumped on the blood-maned horse, and started running wildly in the martial arts training ground. After running for half an hour, the blood-maned horse stopped, but Wang Junlin still followed it.

The extremely human grievance can be seen in his eyes.

Wang Junlin knew that it was because this martial arts training ground was too small. With the blood-maned horse's wild character and an IQ equivalent to that of a four- or five-year-old child, it was strange that he would not feel aggrieved by being kept here. On the contrary, the little lynx was because

He has followed Wang Junlin since he was born, but he has become accustomed to living with humans. In addition, the little guy running around in the Marquis Mansion will not have any impact, so he lives a more free life than the blood-maned horse.

.

Wang Junlin held the blood-maned horse's head and whispered in its ear: "Brother, if you bear with me, I will take you out of the city to run wild and have fun."

The blood-maned horse seemed to understand Wang Junlin's words, and raised its head and let out a cheerful neigh.

Wang Junlin patted the blood-maned horse on the head, then turned and left the racecourse. The little lynx glanced at the blood-maned horse, jumped out briskly, followed Wang Junlin and left.

When Wang Junlin returned to the study, Shen Guang was already waiting here. Seeing him coming, he quickly stepped in and saluted him respectfully.

"What are the reactions from all parties now?" Wang Junlin nodded to Shen Guang and asked casually.

Shen Guang said quickly: "Reporting to the Marquis, Yang Su, the Duke of Yue State, sent his eldest son Yang Xuangan to Jingzhao Mansion to visit Jingzhao Yin Wangtong, but the latter did not release Yang Xiong."

"Oh!" Wang Junlin was a little surprised. In his opinion, with Yang Su's reputation and Yang Feng's tragic death in this incident, Wang Tong should have let Yang Xiong go quickly.

Shen Guang saw the doubts in Wang Junlin's heart and quickly added an explanation: "Half an hour after He Ruobi of Shangzhu Kingdom returned home, he hurriedly entered the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. The eunuch Bai Shi in the palace reported that He Ruobi was facing the emperor in the imperial study.

The emperor knelt down and cried loudly, begging him to make the decision to kill Yang Xiong to avenge his son He Ruojin. In addition, the yamen servant who was seriously injured by Yang Xiong could not be saved and was already dead, and the yamen servant's family gathered more than 20 people.

Famous tribesmen knelt in front of Jingzhao Mansion and asked the government to severely punish the murderer."

Wang Junlin looked stunned, nodded, and said: "I see, it's just... With He Ruobi's character, it was expected that he would enter the palace to meet the emperor, but with Yang Su's caution, how could he allow the family members of that government servant to gather in a crowd?

There was trouble in Jingzhao Mansion, and Yang Su failed to stop it, which shows that someone was probably behind it deliberately."

Speaking of this, Wang Junlin thought of Chen Danying who shot Yang Feng to death with an arrow. He found out through the Nighthawk that the person behind Chunnu Tower was Prince Yang Guang. He originally thought that Chen Danying was Yang Guang's man. But as we all know, Yang Su was Yang Guang.

If Chen Danying was really a member of Yang Guang, how could he kill Yang Su's grandson?

"There are two possibilities. One is that Chen Danying has another identity and has a lot of enmity with the Duke of Yue. The other is that there is another force with the same purpose as mine, trying to stir up trouble within the various families who founded the ZTE in the Sui Dynasty. Fighting, but their actions are a bit extreme."

"There may be more than one person with this motive. Yang Jian has such an idea, and Yang Lihua probably wants to do the same. In addition, there may be forces hidden in the dark that I don't know about."

Wang Junlin's mind was spinning, and he already had a general idea, and said: "Where is the Changping Palace?"

Shen Guang said: "There is no response at the moment."

Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "It's not that there is no response, it's that our ability to gather information is still too poor. At most, we can only find out some of the other party's itinerary and explicit information. We can't always rely on Nighthawk envoys to find out information. , that doesn’t belong to us after all, they have their own purposes.”

When Shen Guang heard this, his heart moved. He remembered something and said, "Master Marquis, I have one more thing to report to you."

Wang Junlin nodded and said, "What's the matter?"

"Today when we were shopping at the Universiade Building, an injured guard of the Yang family crawled under the dining table and attacked Qiu Fu with a crossbow. However, I looked for the guard afterwards but could not find him. I suspected that the guard was not the real one. The Yang family guards were disguised by someone taking advantage of the chaos."

As Shen Guang spoke, he took out a crossbow arrow from his arms, presented it to Wang Junlin with both hands, and said, "I managed to find the crossbow arrow afterwards."

Wang Junlin took it and took a closer look. There were no marks on the crossbow arrows and nothing special could be seen.

"What is your judgment?" Wang Junlin handed the arrow to Shen Guang.

Shen Guang obviously had some ideas, and immediately said: "No one knows about the plan of the Dayun Restaurant except Mr. Hou and Bei Zhi. Even Zheng Guangan only knows about his own affairs. Bei Zhi thinks that whether it is under the dinner table The fake guard, or the mysterious man from Yi Mingxuan Teahouse, were all secretly watching you, Mr. Hou, so they happened to be at or near the Dayun Restaurant. The two of them shot with crossbows and feather arrows respectively. It was purely a temporary decision. Moreover. The purpose of these two people should be the same as ours, but they are more ruthless and unscrupulous."

"Yes, your analysis makes sense." Wang Junlin nodded appreciatively, looked at Shen Guang and said: "From now on, we will build our own intelligence system, and you will be solely responsible for this matter. You go down first and take care of yourself. Think about it and come up with a general plan. In a few days, a hundred guards will arrive from Gaotai City in the northwest. They are all confidants I trust. You can select fifty of them to train as your backbone and establish Initial intelligence structure, and then find ways to recruit and develop peripheral manpower. For this point, you can consider the underground gangs in the capital, or even the beggars, vendors, etc. in the streets and alleys. How much starting capital or other materials and weapons are needed, you propose according to your plan I will find a way to satisfy your request. But you must build a strong intelligence team for me as soon as possible."

There was excitement in Shen Guang's eyes, but he didn't expect Wang Junlin to trust him so much. He had only come here for a few days and handed over such an important task and position to him. As the saying goes, "A scholar will die for his confidant." , Shen Guang was in such a mood right now, and immediately clasped his fists and said loudly: "Don't worry, Mr. Hou, I will work to the death to complete the mission and build a strong intelligence team for Mr. Hou as soon as possible."

Wang Junlin felt Shen Guang's initial loyalty to him, and couldn't help but feel very pleased, and said: "You go to Zhan Peng now and ask him to get you five hundred taels of gold from the warehouse. You make the preliminary preparations first."

Shen Guang took a deep breath, clasped his fists respectfully and said, "I obey my orders."

After saying that, he turned around and left quickly. Wang Junlin had given him a lot of inspiration just now. Over the years, he had dealt with all kinds of people from all three religions and nine streams, and he already had some ideas, but he couldn't wait anymore. Want to implement it.





As the first prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, Gao Xi has too many names, such as the first hero in the founding of the Sui Dynasty, the first elder in the founding of the Sui Dynasty, etc.! But no matter what the name is, it represents the honor that is respected, and the importance of being in the Sui Dynasty. The most important thing about his unparalleled prestige among the civil and military officials of the imperial court and the world's scholars is that he has too many disciples among the civil and military officials of the world. Even Yang Su, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi and others were recommended by Gao Xi at that time. This is also true. It is for this reason that he is currently idle at home.

In the 19th year of the founding of the emperor, Yang Jian had decided to depose the former crown prince Yang Yong. The first thing he wanted to do was to eradicate Yang Yong's wings. Gao Xi was the first to bear the brunt. He and Yang Yong were related to each other, and he was the staunchest supporter of the former crown prince Yang Yong, so Gao Xi Xi was immediately accused by Yang Jian and demoted to the people.

Three years later, Gao Jun seems to have become as calm as water. He reads books at home, occasionally goes to the street to have a drink in a wine shop, listens to the voices of the people, and lives an ordinary life. His extremely wise mother has solemnly warned him many times. After passing him, he was already a very popular minister. If he went further up, he would have to turn around. He took it for granted. At this time, he had no official position and was light-hearted. He only felt that he was out of trouble.

In the study, Gao Jiong was talking to his son Hongde. Gao Hongde was Gao Ji's second son. His wife was the daughter of the former prince Yang Yong. He was also Gao Jiong's favorite son.

Gao Hongde wanted to persuade his father to go to the palace to visit Empress Dugu, as a monarch and his minister, but was rejected by his father, which made him deeply frustrated. He wanted to persuade him again, but Gao Xi stopped him with his hand and said decisively: "I would never take the initiative to go to the palace again unless summoned by the emperor. I know you are not willing to serve the people at home, but please don't persuade me on this matter."

Gao Xi knew better than anyone that his prestige was too high, his disciples were too old, and he had an inseparable relationship with the former prince. If he showed up again, Yang Jian's character might not kill him, but the current prince Yang Guang would Someone who is decisive in killing and ruthless might just send someone to kill him without waiting for him to ascend the throne as emperor. Not even a single one of the hundreds of people in his family, including children, would be alive.

Gao Hongde had resentment in his heart, but he had nothing to do. Just as he was about to continue persuading his father, the butler's voice came from the door: "Master, King Changping wants to see you."

"Qiu Rui?" Gao Xi was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't care about world affairs, he also knew a series of major events that had happened since the poisonous general came to Beijing, including the murder of Universiade Tower that shocked the whole court just today. .So he knew that Qiu Rui was roasting on the fire now. But this person didn't want to solve his predicament, so why did he come to him?

With his mind spinning, Gao Xi immediately said to his son Gao Hongde: "Hongde, go to the gate in person and invite King Changping to come in on my behalf."
