Zhu Junsheng has always been by Liu Bowen's side, and Liu Bowen treats him as both an entourage and an apprentice.

"My lord, Shen Yilun has been staying in Lin'an Mansion, which is not far from Jinling, and when he heard that you came to Jinling, he immediately took people away, and now he should have returned to Marshal Zhao."

Zhu Junsheng followed Liu Bowen for a while, this young man did not have the iron will of his father Zhu Jinliang, and was not suitable for working behind enemy lines, but his mind was very smart and he was also down-to-earth, so Liu Bowen really regarded Zhu Junsheng as an apprentice in training.

"Is this the Wolong next to Marshal Zhao, it really disappoints me, what about the other one, Tsukasa Hu?"

Liu Bowen asked Zhao Pu, Zhao Pu is more cunning and gloomy than Shen Yilun, and after disappearing from Zhao Kuangyin's side, he has not been able to find him, and even the Jinyi Weiwu spy group, which is the most able to listen to the news, has not been able to find him.

"My lord, Zhao Pu hasn't been found yet, and there has been no news from Jinyiwei."

"Junsheng, if you were Zhao Pu, where would you hide?"

When Liu Bowen cultivates Zhu Junsheng, he often deliberately cultivates his analytical and judgment ability.

Because, if you want to become an excellent advisor, whether the analysis and judgment are accurate and whether you can give effective suggestions to the lord is the only criterion.

"If you go back to your lordship, if your subordinate is Zhao Pu, your subordinate will stay in Jinling City, and only here can you grasp first-hand information about the imperial court, and then formulate corresponding strategies."

Liu Bowen nodded, very satisfied with Zhu Junsheng's answer.

"So, where do you think Zhao Pu will be hiding at the moment?"

This time, Zhu Junsheng stopped talking, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said:

"Zhao Pu is a person, bold and careful, he must have more than one place to hide, but his subordinates believe that Zhao Pu is a literati after all, although he doesn't read much, but he likes to read the Analects very much, this person seems to have a kind personality, few words, but he is very proud in his heart, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is proud of his talents, and his subordinates boldly guess that the place where he hides will inevitably be a place with more literati, such as a poetry society or a private school."

"Then Junsheng, do you think we made such a big fuss yesterday, will Zhao Pu be scared away by us like Shen Yilun?"

"The subordinates think that he doesn't dare to run, he must have guessed that we have laid a net in Jinling Simen."

Zhu Junsheng's school examination has come to an end, and on the whole, Liu Bowen is still very satisfied.

"We chartered the entire Qinhuai River flower boat last night, Zhao Pu will definitely think that we are looking for him, Zhao Pu is pretentious, and he is very romantic, Jin Yiwei arranged the manpower on the flower boat last night."

"Yes, my lord, according to Wang Zongqi's report, all the boatmen on the flower boat have been replaced by our people, as long as they don't speak, they generally won't show their feet."

On the Qinhuai River flower boat, there are generally several boatmen, and the Jinyiwei is replaced by the most inconspicuous, and there is no need to communicate with the guests who come to drink and have fun.

Liu Bowen is calculating Zhao Pu, and Zhao Pu is also calculating Liu Bowen at this time.

"I didn't expect the little emperor to send the fake Taoist priest next to him, this person is a little tricky, he appeared out of thin air, and was inexplicably reused by the little emperor, took off his robe and ran to participate in the scientific examination, we don't have much information about this person, therefore, in recent times, everyone has stopped all actions."

In an inn in Jinling City, Zhao Pu, who has been disguised, seems to be the shopkeeper of a shop.

The inn is undoubtedly a place where you can hide your identity well, and Zhao Pu is also very confident in his disguise.

"In order to lurk in Jinling City, I gave up the Analects that I often held in my hands, gave up my identity as a literati, and came here to be a ninth-rate innkeeper, Liu Ji, you can't think of it."

Zhao Pu twisted his beard and thought secretly, staring at the door of the inn, from time to time there were groups of soldiers passing by, checking the passers-by.

"Do you want to startle the snake, this trick may be useful for others, for me Zhao Pu...... I am now an innkeeper Sun Liang, not Zhao Pu, the chief strategist under Marshal Zhao at all, so you can find it. ”

An officer, under the guidance of the local lieutenant, led a dozen soldiers into the inn.

"The shopkeeper, the government conducts a routine check, everyone in the inn gathers in the backyard, everyone is strictly forbidden to enter and exit, and those who violate the order are immediately arrested."

Zhao Pu hurriedly nodded and trotted over, and said with a smile:

"Master Jun, you work hard, the villain will let the guys go and invite the guests to the backyard, Master Jun, you wait a while."

Zhao Pu speaks a fluent Jinling dialect, which he also began to learn as soon as he arrived in Jinling.

Because Zhao Kuangyin gave him the task of receiving officials, families, and wealthy businessmen who came to visit, the dialect in Jiangnan is too different from that in the north, and the northern one has a little accent, at least you can still understand it, the dialect of Jiangnan......

In order to be able to better communicate with these people and not be deceived by these people, Zhao Pu practiced hard for a while, and finally became proficient and could communicate directly with people in Jinling dialect.

I didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Zhao Pu instructed the men to invite the guests who lived in the guest room, and then gathered all the cooks together and waited in the backyard for the soldiers to come and inspect them.

"Everyone, according to the name registered on the counter, whoever is called, will stand up and be checked."

One by one, they were called out and subjected to strict interrogation, and if they dared to talk more or talk back, soldiers immediately rushed up, kicked them down with both feet, and dragged them away.

"Be honest, accept the interrogation obediently, you can go back to sleep if you have nothing to do, and if you have something, you can go to sleep in another place with us."

In the end, there were really a few left who were not called.

"Shopkeeper, what's going on with these guys?"

Zhao Pu still had the smile he had just now at this time, his lips trembled and he kept shaking at the officer:

"It's all the villain's negligence, some guests came to stay, we didn't register it all, but the villain can guarantee that these are all frequent visitors to our inn, they are old customers, and it was the villain's negligence that did not register, ask the military master to raise his noble hand."

The leading officer sneered and said:

"Raise your noble hand, I will raise your noble hand, the Governor should cut off my head, come on, take these people away."

Zhao Pu wanted to say something, but the officer glared at him and said:

"You're the only one left who hasn't been interrogated, Chief, do you know this person?"

The lieutenant chief is the lowest-level administrator responsible for managing the area, and the lieutenant chief is the most familiar with the people on the ground.

"If you go back to the military master, the villain will recognize the shopkeeper Sun, Sun Liang, we are old neighbors."

There was a captain as a guarantee, and the officer didn't ask more, but he didn't expect that this place would have been bought by Zhao Pu a long time ago.

After the officers and soldiers withdrew, Zhao Pu took a few men to a remote guest room.

"The shopkeeper is really clever, deliberately letting a few brothers pretend to be unidentified people and be arrested by officers and soldiers, can you ...... Ah......h

Before the guy could finish speaking, Zhao Pu raised his hand and gave him a slap.

"Shut up, there's no such thing at all, those people are all frequent visitors to our inn, so they didn't register, remember, you have to say this to everyone."

The guy didn't want to shoot on the back, but he slapped Zhao Pu himself.

"The villain knows that he is wrong, those people are the frequent customers of this inn, so there is no detailed registration, and the villain says so to everyone."
