It was late December. In the morning, Lin Yaozu, the proprietor of Xinchangfang Baoji Hall, hurriedly came out of the medicine shop, got on an ox cart and arrived at Gaosheng Inn in Dongshi.
Lin Yaozu has been incited to rebel by Wang Yue, and the reason for inciting him to rebel is also very simple. Lin Yaozu is a member of Yao He, the third child, and the person in power now is Yao Shun, the second child. He had offended Yao Shun at first, because his informant led to Yao Shun's death.
His arm was broken by his father.
Therefore, after learning the news about Yao Shun's ascendancy, Lin Yaozu was in panic all day long, and even wanted to escape anonymously. Wang Yue got the news from the doctor Wang Fuzhi in time, and he immediately made a decision, trapped Lin Yaozu, and successfully instigated him to rebel.
Lin Yaozu's role was much greater than that of Wang Fuzhi. He enabled the Chang'an Internal Guard to master a lot of important information. In particular, Lin Yaozu was Yao Guangping's internal surveillance officer. He was well aware of the conflicts and grievances between Yao Guangping's sons, which made Jin
Jun was able to gain a deeper understanding of the Yao family's weaknesses.
Lin Yaozu came to Gaosheng Inn. The innkeeper knew him and asked him to wait a moment while he sent someone to notify Wang Yue.
Not long after, Wang Yue arrived at Gaosheng Inn. He walked into the room and asked with a smile: "But is there any important news?"
Lin Yaozu nodded, "I received an order from Yao Shun today to go to Luoyang to assist the Quanzhou envoy in negotiating with the Zhu Si court."
Wang Yue was startled, "Why are you allowed to go? Is there no one in Luoyang?"
Lin Yaozu smiled bitterly and said: "There was originally an intelligence station in Luoyang, but after the Chengdu station was destroyed the year before last, the Luoyang station was also exposed, and everyone was arrested and executed. I have stayed in Luoyang for several years and know some senior officials.
, so let me go to Luoyang to assist."
"What are you going to talk to the Luoyang court about?"
"I don't know either. If the commander needs it, he can send someone to go with me."
Wang Yue thought for a moment and said, "I will report to His Highness Prince Jin now. You can come over again at noon to see if there is anything I need to tell you."
Wang Yue left Gaosheng Inn and quickly rushed back to Daming Palace.
After waiting for a moment in front of the door of King Jin's palace, a guard led him in.
At this time, Guo Song was in Pan Liao, Du You and Cui Yuanfeng were discussing the arrangements for the imperial examination next spring. The Jin army had unified the south of the Yangtze River. Whether they were military occupation or effective rule of the area south of the Yangtze River, the imperial examination next spring would be
As a weather vane, if a large number of southern scholars come to refer to it next spring, it means that the southern scholars generally recognize the imperial court.
Therefore, Guo Song suggested that it is best to prepare according to the scale of 100,000 scholars, and at the same time, be prepared to admit 300 people.
At this time, a follower stepped forward and whispered to Guo Song: "Your Highness, the Commander-in-Chief of the Internal Guard has something urgent to see you!"
Guo Song nodded and said to the three of them: "The imperial examination is of great importance. The Ministry of Rites will make a plan first, and then discuss it in the political hall. If other departments need to participate, Pan Xiangguo will step in to coordinate."
The three of them stood up and saluted, said goodbye and left. Then Wang Yue hurriedly walked in, knelt down on one knee and saluted and said: "I see you, Your Highness!"
"Please get up!"
Guo Song asked Wang Yue to stand up, and asked with a smile: "Did you find out what happened when I told you last time?"
What Guo Song asked for was to investigate the former residence of Liu Caichun's great-grandmother in Chang'an, as well as the situation of his family and parents' graves. Because it was so long ago, this matter was difficult and impossible to investigate.
Their only clue was that their great-grandmother was a pipa girl at Fengming Music Studio, and her stage name was Xiao Guan Niang. There was a famous prostitute named Da Guan Niang at that time, and her surname was Guan, so she was called Xiao Guan Niang.
Wang Yue bowed and said: "We did find some clues. Daguan Niang was only famous for three years, and then she married a wealthy businessman and became a good person. We checked the list of Fengming Lefang in the past three years, and sure enough we found Xiao Guan.
Guan Niang is named Guan Niang, but there is no record of her life and family in Lefang."
"You mean there's nothing we can do?"
Wang Yue shook his head quickly, "We also found another clue. Xiao Guanniang eloped with someone back then. She was probably the fourth lady's grandfather. They were wanted by the police for their elopement back then. There should be a file in Wannian County.
, I will be found as soon as possible."
Guo Song nodded, "Then tell me about the urgent matter you want to report!"
Wang Yue perked up and said quickly: "There is something going on over there in Quanzhou Prefecture."
He then recounted what Lin Yaozu had told him in detail, and finally said, "I think this is an opportunity, but I can't think of where the opportunity is?"
Guo Song walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, looked at the sky again, and said after a while: "There are many opportunities here, it depends on how we use them!"
He immediately said to his subordinates: "Go to the scout camp quickly and find the deputy commander Zhou Fei!"
...........
Zhou Fei followed Lin Yaozu and left Chang'an that night. Not long after he returned from Jiangnan, he reunited with his family for a few days before he was ordered to set off again.
But Zhou Fei didn't complain at all. His wife and children lived in a five-acre official residence in Chang'an. He hired dozens of servants and made a wealthy living. He himself was awarded the title of County Duke, which he could pass on to his descendants.
, for this kind of kindness, he was willing to sell his life to His Highness the King of Jin.
Zhou Fei pretended to be Lin Yaozu's bodyguard, and he was accompanied by four of Lin Yaozu's men. In fact, they were four elites selected by Zhou Fei from the scout camp. What they had in common was that they were from Quanzhou Prefecture, two Quanzhou people.
A person from Fuzhou and a person from Jianzhou have completely matching accents.
Today, the King of Jin specially summoned Zhou Fei and assigned him a mission to Luoyang. In fact, his mission was very simple, which was to win the trust of Yao Shun's envoy and follow him back to Quanzhou.
Lin Yaozu played a very important role in this. This was also Lin Yaozu's opportunity. Wang Yue clearly promised him that if this matter was successful, the King of Jin would give him a future.
Under the cover of night, a group of people galloped eastward in the vast snowfield, gradually turning into a line of small black dots.
...........
Luoyang Tianding Restaurant is a relatively famous restaurant in Luoyang City. At noon, the restaurant is bustling with people and business is booming.
Yang Mi is a regular customer of this restaurant. Although the prices of the food and wine in the restaurant are not low, as the chief staff of Prime Minister Liu Feng, he no longer takes this small amount of money seriously.
But today Yang Mi came on an appointment, and the person who made the appointment was naturally Jiang Min, the intelligence chief of the Jin Wei Mansion in Luoyang. Since Yang Mi was controlled by the Jin Wei Mansion, he was reluctant at the beginning and had no choice but to be willing to do so now.
Working for the Jin Wei Mansion, he even hoped to become a member of the Jin Wei Mansion. This change of mentality was because the Jin army unified the south, which made Yang Mi see the general trend. Since he was Liu Feng's chief aide, he
It will end well, and he must find future opportunities for himself.
"Hey! Mr. Yang came early today, are you still taking your usual seat?" Everyone knows him.
Yang Mi waved his hand, "I have an appointment with my friend today, please leave me alone!"
Yang Mi came to the third floor. There were elegant rooms on the third floor. He entered the Haitang Room. Jiang Min, wearing a futou and a thick cotton robe, was already waiting for him.
Jiang Min was a famous fur merchant in Luoyang, specializing in sheepskins. Even the military ordered from him, and sometimes brought some precious furs with him, so he knew many dignitaries in Luoyang.
"I've kept Mr. Jiang waiting for a long time!" Yang Mi said apologetically, cupping his hands.
Jiang Min smiled and asked Yang Mi to sit down. The Jin Wei Mansion valued this Yang Mi very much, mainly because Yang Mi could influence the major decisions of the Zhu Han Dynasty through Liu Feng, so last time Yang Mi implicitly suggested that he also wanted to join the Jin Wei Mansion.
, Song Tian made a special report to the King of Jin, and King Guo Song of Jin specially approved his joining.
Jiang Min took out a round silver medal from her arms and handed it to Yang Mi, "This is my identity card. Congratulations to me for becoming a member of the Jinwei Mansion."
Yang Mi was overjoyed, and quickly took the silver medal and looked at it carefully. On the front, there were three words "Jin Wei Fu" engraved in seal script, followed by Keqing, and the number was A32.
Yang Mi was a little confused and asked: "What does this guest mean?"
Jiang Min smiled slightly and said: "Ke Qing is a member of the Jin Wei Mansion, but he is not a scout like us who specializes in performing tasks. Ke Qing's status is higher. His Highness the King of Jin must approve before he can be hired as a guest. In the future, the Jin army will recover
After Luoyang, I will have the opportunity to become an official in Luoyang."
Yang Mi felt happy in her heart, carefully put the silver medal into her arms, and said with a smile: "Then I need to work harder to serve His Highness King Jin."
Jiang Min secretly praised Yang Mi for going on the road. He nodded and stroked his beard and said, "Now there is a good opportunity."
"Please say!"
Jiang Min leaned over and lowered his voice: "Yao Shun from Quanzhou has sent a special envoy to Luoyang!"
