Chapter 368: Arriving in Yangzhou
Leng Shicheng is one of the four gods of the six gates, and he is tied with Lu Tianxing, and the relationship between the two is very good, and Tang Yuan has always been valued by Lu Tianxing, so it is a good way to ask Tang Yuan to help.
If he can get Leng Shicheng's help, he may be able to let His Majesty see him.
At this moment, Liu Bai suddenly said: "My lord, if no one is in the way, but His Majesty doesn't want to see your lord, what should I do?"
When these words were spoken, Nian Rusong suddenly fell silent.
He also realized that it was most likely that His Majesty did not want to see him.
And not someone else who is getting in the way.
But what if.
Nian Rusong still wants to give it a try.
His Majesty appointed him as the Imperial Inspector of Salt, that is, to let him rectify the salt affairs of our dynasty.
Now, he didn't see him, which made him frightened.
Could he be wrong?
"Try it. ”
Nian Rusong sighed and said: "I always have to test Your Majesty's thoughts, but it's a pity that my colleagues are all staying in the capital, and it's hard to support them alone." ”
Liu Bai was silent.
"A few days later, the official personally went to see Tang Yuan and asked him to introduce Leng Shicheng on his behalf. ”
Nian Rusong said with determination.
During Emperor Qian's southern tour, Leng Shicheng was a guard, and he could see His Majesty almost every day, so it was undoubtedly the most suitable to ask him for help.
It's a pity that this person belongs to the six doors and is not of the same mind as the civil official.
This made Nian Rusong a little hesitant.
......
When the two were talking about Tang Yuan, he and Hou Yuanqing entered Yangzhou City with great fanfare.
In the past, he was limited by his strength, and he was a little worried about the Gu family and the Xie family seeking revenge.
At this time, he was ordered to come over.
Naturally, what do you scruple about?
Tang Yuan rode his horse and walked on the main road, looking at the prosperous Yangzhou City, and was amazed.
This is his first time in Yangzhou.
Enjoyed a good view.
Hou Yuanqing, who was beside him, said with a smile: "Brother Tang, the prosperity of Yangzhou, even Kyoto can't be compared, and it is many times stronger than Hanzhou." ”
"You've been to Kyoto before. ”
Tang Yuan said suddenly.
"Been there before. ”
Hou Yuanqing replied.
Tang Yuan shook his head and said, "Hanzhou is also one of the three states in the south of the Yangtze River, but I didn't expect such a big gap with Yangzhou. ”
"It's not hard to understand. ”
Hou Yuanqing explained: "In fact, Hanzhou should be better than Yangzhou, but it is a pity that all the major salt merchants have gathered in Yangzhou to drive commerce, so that Yangzhou will prosper for hundreds of years without any signs of decline."
In addition, Yangzhou has a good climate and pleasant scenery, and the emperor will stay in Yangzhou during his southern tour, which gradually prospered, but in general, the three states in the south of the Yangtze River are far better than the other states. ”
Well!
Tang Yuan also knew that this was indeed the case.
The two of them were dressed in official uniforms, and according to the costumes, it could be seen at a glance that they were the deputy chief arresters of the six doors.
"I heard that the chief arrest and deputy chief arrester of the six doors in several nearby states have come over, who are these two people?"
"I don't know, it looks like my face is raw. ”
Tang Yuan had never been to Yangzhou, and it was normal for some people to be unfamiliar with him.
And he didn't know that there were several people standing on top of a tall building in the distance, and they were very familiar to him.
"Hmph, he still dares to come to Yangzhou, doesn't he really take my Xie family seriously?"
A disciple of the Xie family saw Tang Yuan making such a big fanfare, and he suddenly became angry, his face gradually became gloomy, and he was ready to rush down to compete with him.
"Brother Gu, what do you mean?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he was pulled.
The person who pulled him was Gu Qingci, the eldest son of the Gu family.
Gu Qingci shook his head at him and said: "Brother Xie, don't be impulsive, this person is not what he used to be, he is not easy to get along with, Gu is worried that Brother Xie may have to humiliate himself." ”
These words were very hurtful, but they made Xie Sibin stop and not struggle.
Walking to the window, looking at Tang Yuan who was walking by, Xie Sibin held his hands tightly on the edge of the window, his muscles swelled, and his eyes showed a look of resentment.
"Uncle Hong must have been killed by this person, it's really hateful. ”
Xie Sibin hammered on the window frame with one hand and said hatefully.
Uncle Hong treated him very well at the Xie family, but he didn't expect to disappear suddenly.
Gu Qingci looked at Tang Yuan, his brows furrowed slightly.
Today was also the first time he had seen Tang Yuan.
In Ningzhou, he heard about it.
Later, there was a lot of resentment.
If Tang Yuan was still the head catcher of a county, even if he moved, it would not arouse the vigilance of the six gates.
But now, Tang Yuan has become the deputy chief arrester of the six doors, and there is a faint fact of the chief arrest, and if he moves at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
At this point, Tang Yuan already belonged to the backbone of the six gates.
"This time he went to Yangzhou, with the energy of you and me in Yangzhou, are you afraid that you won't be able to take this person. ”
Gu Qingci saw that Xie Sibin was still angry, and couldn't help but say.
"Okay, it's up to my brother. ”
Xie Sibin pondered for a moment, then nodded and said.
He hated Tang Yuan, but he was not stupid.
Tang Yuan was already a powerhouse in the Yuan Shen Realm, and he was still in the Innate Realm, the gap between the two could be described as a cloud and mud, and rushing up in anger at this time was indeed a humiliation.
Gu Qingci looked at Xie Sibin, who had calmed down, and bowed slightly.
Since Xie Xuan's death, this person has rushed to the fiftieth place on the Hidden Dragon List with an extremely strong attitude, and is regarded by the Xie family as the leader of the younger generation.
He is also the leader of the younger generation of the Xie family.
It is the same as Gu Qingci's status in the Gu family.
It's just that the Gu family is a salt merchant, and his main focus is on business, and his martial arts are not obvious.
But don't underestimate Gu Qingci, this person is the most forbearing, and no one knows what his strength is.
In Yangzhou, Gu Qingci is also a mystery.
"By the way, Brother Gu, can Sister Wanrong find it?"
Xie Sibin seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked.
Gu Qingci, who was originally light-hearted, suddenly turned cold when he heard Gu Wanrong's name.
Who would have thought that Gu Wanrong would be kidnapped and taken away.
originally thought that Gu Wanrong would be blackmailed and ask for property from the Gu family.
The Gu family was also prepared for heavy bleeding.
Who knows, after Gu Wanrong disappeared, there was no news.
It's as if it has disappeared into thin air.
made the Gu family, who had already prepared, depressed.
Fortunately, Xiao Xue'er did not disappear with her, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
is likely to offend the Xiao family because of this.
broke the relationship between the Xiao family and the Gu family.
"Nope!"
Gu Qingci said helplessly: "It is really strange to disappear out of thin air, and there is no news even from Tianji Tower." ”
"Damn, what the hell is the origin of this Nine Peerless Palace. ”
Xie Sibin snorted coldly, and there was also a look of fear in his eyes.
Not only was Gu Wanrong kidnapped by the Nine Absolute Palace, but the third and fourth masters of the Xie family were all killed by the Nine Absolute Palace, and I don't know how the Xie family provoked them.
"This group of people is really crazy, they are outrageously strong, they kill people for no reason, and they disappear after killing, and they don't even have a place to recruit people for revenge. ”
Xie Sibin said helplessly.
Compared with Gu Wanrong's disappearance, the loss to the Gu family is minimal.
The Xie family has killed several Yuan Shen Realm powerhouses, it can be said that they have suffered heavy losses, and the ancestors of the Xie family are approaching their lives, so the Xie family is now in danger.
The key is not to know whether the Nine Absolute Palace will continue to look for the trouble of the Xie family.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingci's mood suddenly improved a little.
"Why don't you and I form an alliance, so as not to be broken by the Nine Peerless Palaces one by one?"
Xie Sibin looked at Gu Qingci and said tentatively.
The ancestor of the Xie family is still here, and Gu Qingci will not refuse his proposal.
Sure enough.
Gu Qingci was stunned for a moment, then thought about it seriously, then nodded and said, "Gu can't make his own decisions about this matter, and he still needs to go back and ask his father." ”
After a pause, Gu Qingci thought for a while, and then said, "You might as well invite the Xiao family again." ”
The key will the Xiao family agree?
Xie Sibin said secretly in his heart.
But he didn't say it, just nodded in agreement.
The two of them stopped by the window for a while, watched Tang Yuan disappear from sight, and then turned around to recover.
When this person arrived in Hanzhou, there was no reason for him to leave easily.
......
Half an hour later, Tang Yuan and Hou Yuanqing stood outside the Liumen Mansion in Yangzhou.
After a moment's pause, he stepped inside.
"I've seen Lord Tang. ”
Outside, he obviously knew Tang Yuan, which surprised him.
As everyone knows, Yangzhou Mansion has already had his portrait.
Tang Yuan nodded and said to him: "This official is ordered by Lord Lu to go to Yangzhou to restore his life, and quickly take this official to see Lord Lu." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
A powerful catcher walked in front to lead the way.
The two followed.
After a while, Tang Yuan saw Lu Tianxing again.
The two of them have met several times.
But Hou Yuanqing saw this six-door legend for the first time.
So, Hou Yuanqing immediately saluted.
"You've arrived, too. ”
Lu Tianxing smiled and said, "Sit down." ”
After the two of them sat down, Tang Yuan asked, "Lord Lu, let the two of them go to Yangzhou, is it to protect Your Majesty?"
"Yes, I do. ”
Lu Tianxing didn't hide it, and said calmly.
During this time, Yangzhou gathered a large number of warriors.
He was worried that Leng Shicheng wouldn't be able to cope with it, so he simply asked Tang Yuan to come over.
This kid is usually inconspicuous, but his strength is extremely good.
"Wait a while, the officer will lead you to meet someone, and in the next few days, you will listen to him. ”
Lu Tianxing took a sip of tea, glanced at Tang Yuan and said.
"I don't know who it is?"
Tang Yuan was strange for a while.
He still thought he was working under Lu Tianxing.
Moreover, the responsibility of protecting the emperor this time is actually not in the hands of Lu Tianxing.
Odd!
"Leng Shicheng. ”
Lu Tianxing softly spit out a name.
It turned out to be him!
Tang Yuan and Hou Yuanqing glanced at each other.
They all know this person.
One of the six doors and the four great gods.
Ranked third.
The six doors and the four gods are Lu Tianxing, Liu Xiang, Leng Shicheng and Guan Feiyan.
Among them, Lu Tianxing is the strongest.
And Guan Feiyan, who ranked fourth, is actually a woman.
Although she is a woman, her means are not weak.
When he knew this, Tang Yuan was amazed.
"It's a cold god catcher. ”
Tang Yuan snorted suddenly.
This is not excluded.
It is up to whomever you want.
"By the way, Nian Rusong has arrived in Yangzhou. ”
Lu Tianxing said.
Tang Yuan was not surprised at all, but he had been under his own surveillance.
However, Lu Tianxing obviously didn't tell him about it on purpose.
"He didn't see His Majesty. ”
Lu Tianxing said lightly.
"Huh?"
Tang Yuan was shocked: "Your Majesty doesn't want to see him, but there are still people who are obstructing him and don't let him see Your Majesty." ”
This is important.
"It's both. ”
Lu Tianxing said without hesitation.
Tang Yuan's brows immediately furrowed into Sichuan characters.
What does that mean?
"Next, he's likely to ask for your help. ”
Lu Tianxing said: "Remember to sell favors when the time comes." ”
Tang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted in a blink of an eye and said, "Obey the orders of the adults." ”
"Just a reminder that you don't have to be nervous. ”
Lu Tianxing laughed and said, "I can't move the Sea Shark Gang for the time being." ”
Just as he was about to ask why, Lu Tianxing waved his hand and asked him to leave.
Obviously didn't want to talk to him in detail.
Seeing this, Tang Yuan was also interested, and after making a salute, he and Hou Yuanqing left Yangzhou Mansion.
Not long after he walked out, he met a slightly chubby man with a scar on his face, and when he saw Tang Yuan, he walked over with a smile, his eyes were almost slit, and he walked closer to Tang Yuan and said, "Lord Tang, look up for a long time." ”
"I don't know who Your Excellency is?"
Tang Yuan was slightly stunned and asked.
The slightly chubby man was stunned, he never expected that Tang Yuan didn't know him.
In desperation, he had to introduce himself: "In Xia Qian Shidu, he is the chief catcher of the six doors of Yangzhou." ”
“......”
Tang Yuan was not embarrassed, but he was a little speechless, and he didn't wear official clothes in the mansion, who knew him.
"Money catches heads, disrespectful and disrespectful. ”
Tang Yuan's mind was in a flash, and he immediately bowed his hand, without any embarrassment that he couldn't recognize.
Qian Shidu is really helpless.
Generally, the general catch of each state is acquaintance.
Even if you are newly appointed, you have a portrait.
Unexpectedly, Tang Yuan didn't know him.
He knew that Tang Yuan wanted to see Lord Lu.
That's why he avoided it.
Lord Lu attaches great importance to this person, and with the idea of making friends, he will wait for Tang Yuan here.
Who knew there would be such an embarrassing scene.
The two exchanged pleasantries and left.
We all know that today is not the right time to continue talking.
Leaving the mansion, Tang Yuan let out a sigh of relief.
Hou Yuanqing asked, "Why don't you live in the mansion?"
"It's too unfree, and it's inconvenient to do anything under the noses of others. ”
Tang Yuan let out a long breath and said.
Then he walked into an inn with Hou Yuanqing.
The two settled down.
Tuk-tuk.
Next.
There was a knock on the door.
Tang Yuan opened the door and saw Sun Tao standing outside.
"Haha, Brother Tang, you really came to Yangzhou too. ”
Sun Tao laughed and said.
"Brother Sun, how did you find me?"
Tang Yuan hurriedly let Sun Tao into the house, poured him a glass of water, and asked with a smile.
"Hey!"
Sun Tao said: "You didn't hide your traces, you entered Yangzhou with great fanfare, you don't need to ask, I know you've arrived."
Moreover, do you think you are still as unknown as before, and now you are very famous in the rivers and lakes.
As soon as you arrive in Yangzhou, many people in the rivers and lakes are talking about it.
I also heard it by chance yesterday, so I'm here today. ”
Tang Yuan suddenly asked, "Brother Xu, why didn't you see him?" ”
"He has other things. ”
Sun Tao said.
Then, he remembered the purpose of coming over today, so he said to Tang Yuan: "There is a grand event today, all of them are the young generation of the rivers and lakes, I came here to specially invite Brother Tang to come over, I don't know if I can enjoy it?"
Tang Yuan hesitated: "When Tang first arrived in Yangzhou, he was not familiar with them at all, so it was too abrupt to pass like this. ”
"Children of the rivers and lakes, where are there so many scruples, not to mention that you are invited by my Sun Tao, who dares to say more. ”
Sun Tao said indifferently.
Seeing Sun Tao say this, Tang Yuan thought about it, and also wanted to meet the young generation of masters in Yangzhou.
