Chapter five hundred and thirty sixth nameless restaurant
Ling Tianyun rode out from the Hu family's house. Hu Haijie treated him well and could freely enter and exit the Hu family's courtyard. At first, the gangsters took a fancy to the horses of the three of them, so they ended up in the restaurant.
Looking for trouble for them, but they were kicked on the iron plate, and then they approached Hu Haijie. Ling Tianyun didn't have any special thoughts about Hu Haijie's enthusiasm and generosity.
It's neither good nor bad, it's just a mutual use.
He rode his horse and arrived at an unknown wine shop, which was located in a group of low houses in the west of Jinyang City. The wine shop was located at the intersection of a street and an alley. The flag of the wine shop rising in the wind was rising.
Under the scorching sun, it slumped powerlessly on the wooden pile. This location was more conspicuous. Ling Tianyun didn't spend too much time to find an unknown wine shop.
He tied his horse to the wooden stake in front of the wine shop, and walked straight into the wine shop. This was a wine shop with old furnishings, and there was a thick layer of dirt on the dilapidated tables and benches, which must have
It is the mark left by countless guests sitting on it for a long time, but the dark tables and stools are relatively clean. Overall, this unknown wine shop is relatively clean, but it is still a little dilapidated.
A bartender was sitting listlessly in the wine shop, holding a cloth to shoo away the flies flying around. He didn't notice anyone entering the wine shop. After driving away the flies flying around him, he didn't notice anyone entering the wine shop.
, the bartender's eyes couldn't help but droop, and he appeared dizzy and sleepy.
Ling Tianyun didn't see anything strange in his eyes. This wine shop was located among a group of low-rise houses. Although it was the intersection of a street and an alley, there were only a few pedestrians at this time. Not to mention such an unknown place.
It's a small wine shop. The restaurant where they first ate in Jinyang City was not very good at business. The wine in Jinyang was filled with a sour smell like old vinegar. It's no wonder that this wine shop has good business.
Woolen cloth.
"Waiter, where's your shopkeeper?" As soon as Ling Tianyun entered the door, he saw the sleepy bartender with his head drooped. He couldn't help shouting to the bartender. And his shout made the bartender
His whole body was excited and he immediately jumped up. When he saw clearly the rough young man in front of him, the excitement dropped again.
"Sir, do you want to drink? What do you want to do with my shopkeeper? This shop is a century-old shop, and everyone in Jinyang City knows about it. Would you like me to give you a few kilograms of wine to try?"
Although the bartender didn't take the young man seriously on the surface, he was still chattering professionally.
"The wine you have in Jinyang city has a sour taste of old vinegar, which is really hard to swallow. I'm looking for your shopkeeper, please go and report it." Ling Tianyun felt happy, this bartender really knows how to say, what?
A century-old store, this store has only been open for two or three years at best.
"Oh, okay, sir, please wait a moment. I'll call our shopkeeper right now. If our shopkeeper doesn't see you, don't blame me." When the bartender heard this, he suddenly lost interest.
Chao Ling Tianyun said calmly, and after saying that, he walked towards the backyard of the wine shop, leaving Ling Tianyun alone in the wine shop.
After a while, the bartender led a middle-aged man to Ling Tianyun, "Xiao Ke is the shopkeeper of this wine shop. May I ask what you do for me?" The middle-aged man clasped his fists and smiled at Ling Tianyun. Then
He is a man of medium height with a somewhat thin face, and his green shirt exudes a scholarly air, which makes people feel that this is not a wine shop owner, but a down-and-out scholar.
Ling Tianyun took out a black black iron token from his arms and waved it in front of the middle-aged man's eyes. After the other party saw it clearly, he put it away. As soon as the middle-aged man saw the token
While playing cards, his lazy eyes suddenly shot out a bright light.
"You go back first, our wine shop is closed today." The middle-aged man said calmly to the listless bartender beside him. He didn't care about the confusion and doubts in the bartender's eyes, and he led Ling Tianyun towards the backyard of the wine shop.
And go.
"My subordinate Zhou Xincai has met Mr. Ling." After the middle-aged man led Ling Tianyun into the backyard, he saluted Ling Tianyun and said. His eyes showed excitement and his whole body trembled slightly.
"You and I are not superiors and subordinates. We are just entrusted by others to stay in Feiqiao Camp temporarily. You don't have to be so restrained. This time I just want to ask you about some things in Jinyang City." Ling Tianyun's expression changed.
As soon as he was up, he said to the middle-aged man. He was only temporarily in Feique Camp. Now Feique Camp is still in the hands of Zhao Kuangyin, but he is temporarily in charge of Feique Camp for his second brother.
"If Mr. Ling has any needs, just ask. Xiao Ke will definitely cooperate with you." Zhou Xincai's face became solemn and he said solemnly to Ling Tianyun. He did not expect that this young boy was actually the commander of Feiqiao Camp. Although
He didn't know Ling Tianyun's true identity, but with his extraordinary experience, he obviously didn't dare to underestimate this young man.
Ling Tianyun asked him some things about the Jinyang Palace, and then asked him some things about the Zhong family.
"There is no news in the palace. It is said that after the Northern Han Dynasty Emperor Liu Yu returned from the battlefield, he stayed in the imperial study room of Liyang Palace. He neither went to court nor saw any ministers, even that
None of the concubines in the harem have been received. So there are rumors in the palace that Emperor Liu Yu was frightened by something, and there are also rumors that the emperor was possessed by some evil spirit. As for the rest, there is nothing else. By the way, it seems like last night
Emperor Lina summoned Concubine Hu, the most favored concubine of the Northern Han Emperor."
"As for the Zhong family, there has been some movement. All members of Zhong Huangyu's clan have been deprived of their power and have been reduced to ordinary clansmen with no power. And Zhong Jianhong seems to have entered the palace yesterday, as if last night
I just returned to the Zhong Mansion. There was something puzzling. At midnight, a carriage drove out of the Zhong Mansion and went directly into the palace. I don’t know who was in the carriage and why they entered the palace late at night."
"Do you have any detailed information about Zhong Jianhong?" Ling Tianyun couldn't help but think for a while after listening to Zhou Xincai's report, and then asked him. This wine shop was originally a hidden stake of Zhou Xincai in the Northern Han Dynasty.
The shopkeeper of this wine shop, Zhou Xincai, is also a member of Feiqiao Battalion. In Jinyang City, Zhou Xincai is also regarded as the leader of Feiqiao Battalion. The spies sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty to Jinyang all report directly to Zhou Xincai. Except for Zhou Xincai, everyone in Jinyang City
There are also some members of the Flying Bird Battalion with secret identities in Jinyang City. They have been placed in different locations. In the palace, not only in brothels, but also in some inconspicuous grocery stores, there are flying birds.
Members of the Bird Camp.
"This young master of the Zhong family doesn't have any bad habits. He also visits brothels on weekdays, and he has an affair with one of his maids. As for the other things, Xiao Po's ability is really limited and he can't find out.
What." When he mentioned Zhong Jianhong, Zhou Xincai's eyes showed a hint of helplessness, and he apologized to Ling Tianyun. The people wandering around Jinyang City are ordinary mortals. If you want to really break into the Northern Han Dynasty,
There are still some difficulties in the No. 1 martial arts family, so they are unable to find out the details of Zhong Jianhong.
"You want to find out as soon as possible who entered the palace last night? As for other things, let's put them aside for now. When I was living in Hu Haijie's mansion, I heard that Concubine Hu was Hu Haijie's biological sister. Is this true?
"Ling Tianyun knew the other party's difficulties, so he didn't say anything. He told him where he lived so that he could contact him in time if there was any news in the future.
"This is absolutely true. It's just that Hu Haijie is too weak to hold on to the wall. Otherwise, because Hu Guifei was so favored by the Emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, she would never have become the leader of the underworld in Jinyang City. They
There seems to be some estrangement between the two brothers and sister, and they don't have much contact. Since Mr. Ling lives in the Hu family, he is very safe for the time being. Although the Hu family is not as good as other wealthy families in Jinyang City, but for the sake of
No one dares to offend Concubine Hu so easily."
"I want to enter the palace, what can you do here?" Ling Tianyun thought to himself that Hu Haijie was indeed not lying, but he felt that it would be too late for him to enter the palace through Hu Haijie's route, so he thought anxiously.
A trip to the palace. He wanted to see clearly the true face of the fake Liu Yu, so as to uncover Zhong Jianhong's conspiracy.
"The palace is heavily guarded. It may be difficult to sneak in secretly. Xiao Ke can't find any good way for a while. When Xiao Ke finds the right time, he will notify Mr. Ling as soon as possible." Zhou Xincai shook his head helplessly.
Shaking his head, entering the palace was not as simple as entering a wealthy family. In addition to being heavily guarded, Jinyang Palace also had many martial arts masters hidden in it, so he could only say helplessly.
Seeing that the spies who came to Jinyang City's Feiqiao Camp were still limited in ability, Ling Tianyun couldn't help but think to himself. He could only take one step at a time. At the moment, there was no other way but to wait for him. Then there was a gap between Hu Haijie and Hu Guifei.
Obviously there are still some difficulties in entering the palace through that line.
"By the way, Ling Tianyun, my Zhou army will arrive at Jinyang City tomorrow. By then, Jinyang City will be in chaos. I hope Master Ling takes care of himself. Xiao Ke has already deployed the defenses in Jinyang City.
The plan was sent out of the city. This Jinyang City seems to be loose, but if it is to be attacked by force, it is really difficult to capture. I am afraid that Your Majesty is too impatient and will lose too many troops and generals." Zhou Xincai said on his face.
He said to Ling Tianyun with a worried expression.
"So fast, well, we will take it one step at a time. As for His Majesty, I will deal with it later. But there is news from the Khitan side. Wang Dezhong rushed to the Khitan again. He must have borrowed troops. I am afraid that the Khitan will then
The army of the Northern Han Dynasty is attacking from both sides, and our Zhou army is in danger." Ling Tianyun couldn't help but think of the Khitan Kingdom. This nail-like existence has been stuck in Zhou's throat and cannot be removed.
It's confusing.
"As soon as Wang Dezhong left, Xiao Ke sent several experienced spies to follow him. The news hasn't been passed on yet. I'm afraid the situation is more dire. The Khitan people will definitely take the opportunity to send troops. It's just a question of when the Khitan army will send troops.
When we arrive in Jinyang, we need to confirm a few things."
Ling Tianyun left the nameless wine shop. There was no trace of relief on his face. The Khitan Kingdom hung like a sword above his head, which made him worried about Da Zhou. Although the Northern Han Dynasty was a small country, there were also several famous people in the Northern Han Dynasty.
Among the famous generals stationed in the south are Yang Ye, Weizhou Shanjia five hundred miles southwest of Jinyang, and general Ding Gui stationed in Jinyang. All of them are not brave and skilled in battle.
Although the Zhou army came with great momentum, they were still exhausted, and this was their territory. Therefore, regarding the battle to attack Jinyang, Ling Tianyun felt a little uneasy in his heart.
He couldn't help but pinch his legs, and the horse neighed and galloped away into the street. There was a heavy feeling in his heart. Zhong Jianhong must have guessed his arrival, and he would definitely set up a dragnet to wait for him to get in, and
There is obviously not much time left for yourself.
