Chapter 471: Secret Agent (2-in-1)
Nanhu Road was noisy, and Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng had to turn around and go to Puchuan first.
"You are in such a hurry to go to Puchuan, but where is Wang 13 waiting for you?"
"Yes, yes."
After Wen Sheng finished speaking, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and sneered: "Don't just talk about me, as if you are not in a hurry." Who set the trap in Puchuan before? You've all gone? I don't believe it. ”
Zhong Tianzheng snorted and did not answer.
Wen Sheng suddenly remembered that there were still many mysteries before and after the matter of "Xi Shengpu", and he forgot to ask Zhong Tianzheng for clarification before.
"Those people who fish in troubled waters and sell fake books for fifty taels and one book, but your people?"
Zhong Tianzheng kept a close eye on the wind and grass in Guanzhong before kicking the iron plate of the Baiyunwu master, and naturally knew about the sale of fake "Xisheng Spectrum", and frowned: "Can you press everything on me, first, I am not short of money, and second, I want to get a lot of money, why use such indiscriminate means." ”
Wen Sheng said in his heart: "Dare to love you, and the means of indiscriminate use are still less?" ”
But if you think about it carefully, what Zhong Tianzheng said also makes sense, Yang Haojian fell into his hands, and it is estimated that he would have been eaten alive and skinned, and the bone marrow was knocked out of his bones.
The gentry, family, and heroes of Daliang were imprisoned by him and suffered a great disaster.
There are also Duan Zhengqing, Lin Tingxuan and other henchmen to help take care of it, Zhong Tianzheng really doesn't necessarily take this "deal" that kills hundreds of thousands of dollars in his eyes.
In this way, the most suspicious is Baiyunwu.
Sure enough, I listened to Zhong Tianzheng and said: "I didn't expect that those few people who sold fake books were so skilled, and the people sent to keep an eye on them revealed their hiding. Otherwise, how could it be so easily found by the people of Baiyunwu? ”
Wen Sheng temporarily believed Zhong Tianzheng's words, and asked, "You didn't make trouble about the Yuan family?" ”
Yan Bai replied that the Yuan family may have had a carbuncle at the beginning. But the carbuncle has grown so big, the patient is just weak and can't speak, this is not in line with common sense, considering that Yuan everyone has no symptoms of poisoning, it is likely that he was assassinated by others, and he also instructed Dong Tao that after the carbuncle is cut off, it should be carefully put away, and there is a chance to send it to Nanchong. He knew it at a glance.
Zhong Tianzheng flatly denied: "Naturally, no." ”
Puchuan is not very far from Nanhu Road, and there are also many soldiers and horses stationed.
Zhong Tianzheng went to deal with the guards of the city, saying that he came from Lecheng to join his relatives. Smoothly entered the city.
Just seeing that no one paid attention to them, they knew that Zhu Ziliang didn't know the news of the Baiyunwu master's accident.
After walking around Puchuan City, Wen Sheng was a little surprised to find that the inn where he stayed last time had been sealed. There are also a few others that have also been blocked. After Zhong Tianzheng finished the turn, he found a remote place to stop, and was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about what to do next.
The sealed stores are more or less related to the Tan family, and I don't know where the Tan family and Wang Shisan are now.
Zhong Tianzheng didn't want to easily expose his last bit of foundation in Puchuan, but at this time, it was obviously impossible not to use them.
In the evening, Sheng Weiqi, the old catcher of Puchuan City, went home after finishing his errand, and his family lived in Xinmi Lane in the west of the city. There are three large tiled houses.
Sheng Zhutou has been working as an errand boy in the yamen for almost 20 years, and his wife died early. lived with his son Sheng Ping and apprentice Su Xiaoliu.
As soon as he entered Xinmi Lane, he saw a donkey cart parked in the alley, the door of his street was open, and Su Xiaoliu was sweeping the yard with a broom in his hand. He winked at him as he spoke.
Sheng Zhutou was taken aback: "Really? "Three steps and two steps into the door, looking back at the suspicious person at the entrance of the alley, quickly closed the door tightly.
There were only two chairs in the main room, and the tea had already been served, Sheng Ping was guarding the door, looking anxious, but he didn't dare to come out.
Zhong Tianzheng sat on the upper seat, Wen Sheng sat on the side with the qin, and she waited to see how Zhong Tianzheng dispatched his subordinates.
These spies Zhong Tianzheng should be rarely used, and with the cover of the identity of the catcher, after the Tan family suffered a big loss, they almost dug Puchuan City three feet into the ground, but they still failed to find them out.
Sheng Weiqi walked quickly to the door, saw his son mouth-synching at him, no longer doubted, and bowed after entering the door: "My subordinates have seen my son." ”
He didn't dare to look up, Wen Sheng only saw the black and white hair of the person who came.
Zhong Tianzheng had a high fever for several days, although he barely pressed it, he looked quite haggard in the end, Sheng Zhutou did not look up and looked directly at him, and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Ziliang is in Nanhu Road?" ”
Sheng Zhutou was strictly ordered, and he was not allowed to take the initiative to contact his own people, and he only knew that Zhong Tianzheng was in Guanzhong, but he didn't know that he went to the Hongmen banquet of the lord of Baiyunwu.
So when he heard Zhong Tianzheng's question, he was very strange in his heart, and he didn't dare to show it, and replied respectfully: "Back to Gongzi, Zhu Ziliang led his troops to retreat north or last month, I heard that Nanchong intended a truce, so although the Liang soldiers withdrew, Lin Shinan did not take advantage of the situation to bite the bite. ”
Zhu Ziliang's withdrawal of troops happened after Dong Tao arrived at Baiyunwu, so Wen Sheng didn't know anything about it.
Although this Sheng Zhutou had some answers that were not what he asked, he was talking about the situation in Guanzhong from the beginning and solving Zhong Tianzheng's doubts, Wen Sheng couldn't help but look sideways, this looks like a clever person, why do you want to work for Zhong Tianzheng?
Zhong Tianzheng was silent.
Sheng Zhutou continued: "After the army entered the state capitals, Zhu Ziliang ordered the prefect to be sentenced to the county head, and hundreds of officials were arrested and put in prison. Guanzhong changed all of a sudden. ”
Zhong Tianzheng frowned: "What reason?" ”
"It is said that he has colluded with traitors in private, and he has obtained real evidence, and he wants to escort these officials to Beijing with evidence and hand them over to the imperial court for disposal."
Now that the Liang is in chaos like this, it is really difficult to define what a traitor is, Zhong Tianzheng and Yang Haojian naturally can't run away, and if the officials are friendly with Li Chengyun, they don't dare to ensure that they are safe.
Sheng Zhutou ignored Zhong Tianzheng's question, and continued: "Zhu Ziliang arrested people, raided homes, and closed stores, and no one dared to say the word 'no'. After taking control of the prefecture and county, he led his troops to Yuanjiaji first. I went to Nanhu Road again. ”
Wen Sheng understood.
It's like it's coming for me.
The joints are also easy to guess.
Zhu Ziliang has already taken refuge in the lord of Baiyunwu, and he will no longer defend against Nan Chongbing for Daliang, and withdraw to arrest and kill a group of officials of Daliang first. Prepare for the Baiyunwu lord to go out of the mountain, and then deal with the thirteen and Tan family people who have fallen into Baiyunwu's sight.
She asked out loud, "What is the situation of the Yuan family now?" ”
Sheng Zhutou listened to a woman's question above, and subconsciously wanted to follow the reputation, his head moved slightly, and he held back stiffly, prostrate there, and made no sound.
Wen Sheng knows. He was waiting for Zhong Tianzheng to speak, so his eyes narrowed and he looked at the seat next to him.
Zhong Tianzheng couldn't. I had to cough lightly: "Say, how is the Yuan family?" ”
Sheng Zhutou didn't dare to show curiosity, and said: "Zhu Ziliang left a deputy general in Yuanjiaji and put the Yuan family under house arrest. I heard that they were judged one by one. I don't know if I asked anything. ”
Wen Sheng's heart moved, and he asked, "Where are Lou Tongju and his wife and brother now?" ”
"All in prison."
Zhong Tianzheng lightly buttoned his hand on the table table, and muttered: "The people of the Tan family ......"
Sheng Zhutou replied boldly: "My subordinates don't know. ”
"Then you can take someone to inquire."
Since the first three of them were exposed to Wen Sheng, they could only turn from dark to light, Zhong Tianzheng was too lazy to make other arrangements, so he simply asked Wen Sheng about the village where the Tan family had settled before, and asked them to go on an errand.
Wen Sheng said that after all, he didn't have any hope in his heart.
She wanted to find Thirteen now.
Sheng Zhu led his apprentices out to run errands. left his son to serve Zhong Tianzheng and Wen Sheng.
Wen Sheng remembered the rumors he had heard before that the common people did not care about the situation in the north of Daliang. Zhong Tianzheng's subordinates are on an errand in the yamen, and they will not be unaware.
Zhong Tianzheng called Sheng Ping in to ask, and sure enough, according to Sheng Ping Dao, the previous imperial court reported that the regent Yang Haoyu had a meeting with the Marshal of Jilu State in the southeast Jersey Hill of Suzhou, and both of them were very satisfied with the results of the meeting.
Yang Haoyu returned to Fengjing, while the army of Jilu drove all the way to the southeast and was stationed in the east of Suzhou.
And Yang Haoyu's ultimatum to Lishui caused an uproar.
Li Chengcheng and Ji Nantang both wrote a statement to defend themselves, pointing out that the regent had handled several inappropriate matters, and many nobles in the court jumped out to second, saying that such a rash would cause serious consequences.
As soon as Yang Haoyu sent the person who spoke to him to prison, he was sent home by the Empress Dowager's decree, and the official was reinstated.
The contradiction between Yang Haoyu and the Tan family has been going on for a long time, and now it is even more tense and on the verge of breaking out.
Originally, Yang Haoyu had soldiers in his hands, and as the emperor's father, he gathered a group of imperial relatives and powerful families later, but now it involves Li Chengyun, these people have different opinions and have been divided a lot, and the Tan family is also worried that once Yang Haoyu is moved, Fengjing will be in chaos, and Jilu's army will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob.
Both sides have scruples, and under the rat trap, only one fuse is missing.
As for the war going on in the north, the imperial army of the Gai court provoked from time to time and created conflicts with the Ji family's army, and there was often friction between the two.
The two of them did not return until late at night.
Wen Sheng had no time to worry about the situation in the distance, and the news they brought back was just as she had expected, and the small village where the Tan family lived had long been uninhabited.
There was no sign of a fight in the village, and it was not even clear that outsiders had lived in the village.
It is precisely because it is so clean that it makes people feel a sense of foreboding.
Zhong Tianzheng sent everyone out to ask Wen Sheng's opinion: "Do you think it is still necessary to go to Nanhu Road?" ”
It was really inconvenient to have no one of his own, so he had to pretend to be Zhong Tianzheng's hand.
Wen Sheng said: "I went to Nanhu Road, first, to see if Dong Tao and Mr. Tan Wu had escaped, and then to meet with Thirteen. Since you have men, tell them to do it, and we'll wait for news here. ”
Zhong Tianzheng was upset: "How long are you going to threaten me?" ”
Wen Sheng smiled slightly: "Until you find Thirteen." ”
When you have thirteen, it's not me who threatens you.
Zhong Tianzheng didn't hear what she meant, called someone in, and gave an order.
Wen Sheng sat next to him and watched, until he was not found to be a troublemaker.
But this is finally considered to be in the city, Zhong Tianzheng ordered to send everyone away, and did not say a word to ask them to help run errands and grab medicine, I don't know whether he felt that the wind was tight, or he didn't want his subordinates to know that he was not lightly ill.
Next, Wen Sheng and Zhong Tianzheng lived patiently in the Sheng family for three days.
For three days, the Sheng family went in and out of the busy work, but the result was unsatisfactory.
Dong Tao and Mr. Tan Wu have not been heard from, and they are sure that they have not appeared in Nanhu Road. And Wang 13 didn't know where he was hiding, but he didn't find it.
Zhong Tianzheng couldn't help but said: "Maybe those two are still underground, and they haven't escaped at all, as for Wang Thirteen, it's just a reckless man, who is Zhu Ziliang's opponent if he leaves you." ”
Wen Sheng was about to sneer at him, but Zhong Tianzheng said again: "Maybe as long as Zhu Ziliang tells him that he knows where you are, he will obediently follow the others." ”
It's possible. But that's not because he's stupid, it's because he takes me too seriously.
Wen Sheng said in his heart.
But even so, Thirteen will keep an eye on it, and with the protection of the "Tomorrow's True Scripture", it will be Zhu Ziliang who will be difficult to end up with.
Wen Sheng still has confidence in Thirteen.
She said coldly: "So what, this is the loveliness of his reckless man." ”
Zhong Tianzheng looked at Wen Sheng's face and wisely swallowed back the rebuttal.
Wen Sheng frowned: "Thirteen won't be unguarded against Zhu Ziliang, he must be fine, I don't know where to hide, and everyone in the Tan family is in danger." If you have to find a way to remind Fengjing, you quickly release the two of the Tan family. ”
Zhong Tianzheng did not refuse, and on a trip to Baiyunwu, both he and Wen Sheng had palpitations.
It's okay that the madman died at the bottom of the lake, if he didn't die, there was such a strong martial artist and vicious person secretly worried, thinking about his means of controlling people, Zhong Tianzheng also felt a chill down his spine.
He asked, "What about me, when are you going to release me?" ”
Wen Sheng avoided answering: "You let the person go." ”
Zhong Tianzheng also wanted to fight for it: "Why do you have to admit death so much, it is true that we were enemies in the past, but now that there are people from Baiyunwu, the imperial court and the Jilu Kingdom, can't we join forces?" There are tens of thousands of defeated soldiers left by Yang Haojian, and I can order them to help Li Chengyun take the lead, how about it? ”
Wen Sheng was unmoved: "Release people first." If you can survive until now, it is all up to me to support yourself, and you have to ask me to collect some interest first. ”
Wen Sheng's stubbornness, Zhong Tianzheng has long experienced it, and now that he has tasted it, he is not angry for some reason, and a burst of melancholy swells in his heart.
"Okay, I'll arrange this side first, and then I'll take you to release people."
In the next night, the towering demon tower by the Tiannu Lake was painted with red paint by someone who took advantage of the night.
There are a few lines of bright red characters left on it: Zhong Tianzheng has returned safely from Baiyunwu, and the remnants of the Zhou Dynasty, Zhu Ziliang, Fu Lancheng, and others are not afraid!
The words are too big, and you can clearly see from a long distance how the garrison of Ren Nanhu Road covered up, and the rumors still spread. (To be continued.) )
