Chapter 126: The Golden State Scout

Zhao Zhen calmed down and said, "Daoist Qingyuan, when Mu Lang was caught, could those people shout out his identity?" ”

Qingyuan Daoist shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Zhao Zhen said to Yan Qing: "B, you go and investigate." Yan Qing promised to leave, Qiao Daoqing waved his hand and said: "No need, I will write a handwritten letter here and let people send it over, the poor road is still a little thin in the Jiedu Yamen, although it can't be guaranteed that Mu Jialang will come out, but it can always be explored." He wrote a letter quickly, and then handed it to Qingyuan, saying, "You go and find out!" ”

Qingyuan didn't dare to do more, and left in a hurry, Qiao Daoqing said to Zhao Zhen: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, just sit down and wait." ”

Zhao Zhen responded, and then said curiously: "Can Uncle Shi's calculations be so accurate?" ”

Qiao Daoqing laughed and said, "If this is the case, then Qiao Mou will become an immortal, how can His Highness still see it." Then he explained: "Only the things that Qiao has in mind can be sensitized, but that's it, only three of the ten hexagrams can be answered, and every hexagram is divined, Qiao will lose one to three months of life, which is not counted, once the matter is delivered, the loss will be counted in years." ”

When Zhao Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but say with concern: "That uncle doesn't have anything important, but don't forget it." ”

Qiao Daoqing smiled and said: "Poor Dao has just seen His Royal Highness, how can he not show his ability." ”

Zhao Zhen couldn't imagine that Qiao Daoqing would be like this, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then several people laughed together.

At this time, the two Taoist boys came in with plain noodles, and Qiao Daoqing said: "There is no good food here, but some snacks are used." Qiao Daoqing quietly observed when Zhao Zhen was eating noodles, and found that although Zhao Zhen ate quickly, the due etiquette was there, and he couldn't help but nod secretly, this Zhao Zhen was in the army, and he was not isolated from the generals, but he kept his royal identity, and such a character would become a great weapon in the future.

A few people finished eating the noodles, Qingyuan hurried back, and said to Qiao Daoqing: "Lord, I inquired clearly, no one in them knew Lang's identity, but that Yao Gui secretly took money to honor Liu Yanshou, and now he was beaten to death by Lang, and Lang was carrying a bag of property, Liu Yanshou thought that if Lang was convicted of a capital crime, he would be able to swallow these property, so he came up and beat Lang to faint, grabbed his hand and pressed his fingerprints, and he was already on death row." ”

Zhao Zhen frowned and said, "How can this be true!" This Liu Yanshou is just a subordinate official of the Governor's Mansion, how can he dare to make a judgment! ”

Qiao Daoqing explained: "Your Highness doesn't know, Liu Duyuan hung the name of the Jiedu envoy to manage the soldiers and horses of Xiangzhou all the way, originally just to appease Liu Yanqing, after all, among the three of their brothers, only Liu Yanqing has the greatest military merits, and Liu Yanzhao is just inheriting his father's position, relying on his fame and fame, which is trusted by the imperial court, Xiangzhou soldiers and horses, in fact, not even a battalion." Jin soldiers went south, Xiangzhou Zhizhou and three of the four soldiers and horses commanders all ran away, Liu Yanzhao personally organized people and horses, assigned generals, this only to keep Xiangzhou, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he named Liu Yanzhao as the Xiangzhou Festival to pacify the envoy, the head of the soldiers and horses, recognized Liu Yanzhao's self-styled status of the four soldiers and horses, and appointed Liu Yanshou as the judge of the Xiangzhou Soldiers and Horses Commander, and also led the post of Xiangzhou Zhizhou, of course, this is also Liu Yanzhao's protection, although Liu Yanzhao is loyal, but he is quite selfish, extremely protective of the family, Liu Yanqing was degraded, died in the road, the Liu family did not have the status of the first general of the Great Song Forbidden Army, and Liu Yanzhao wanted to restore the status of the Liu family, so he promoted his younger brother and led Xiangzhou with him. ”

Zhao Zhen sneered: "Liu Yanqing can only make the Liu family the first general of the forbidden army, but it is just licking Tong Guan, is their Liu family really stronger than the three gates of Chong, Yao, Zheximen and Hu, Yang, Gao, Zheng, and Cao!" ”

Qiao Daoqing said: "The Liu family is definitely not as good as the eight generals of His Royal Highness, but now Xiangzhou and their family are covering their words, and they don't have to wait for the consent of the criminal department at all, so he just didn't start immediately, not because Mu Jialang made him jealous of anything, but because he didn't take it to heart at all." ”

Zhao Zhen frowned, and said to Qingyuan: "Qingyuan Daoist, who are you asking about, can you go through him and walk the way?" ”

Qingyuan shook his head and said: "Impossible, that person is a station in the prefect's yamen, and I am a fellow villager, and he is with me for the sake of the friendship of his fellow villagers, but it is impossible to find him to go the way." ”

Zhao Zhen's brows couldn't help frowning even tighter, and finally said in a deep voice: "Brother Yi, take my famous spy and go to the yamen of the governor's mansion for a trip, just that Lang is my subordinate, let them release him." ”

"No!" Qiao Daoqing said in a deep voice: "Liu Yanzhao obeys the orders of the new emperor, and he will not respect His Highness so much, if His Highness has soldiers and horses here, he will be more honest, now I know that His Highness has not been able to suppress his strength, and will only put on an attitude of strong order, if Brother Yan goes, not only will he not be able to save people, but it is also possible that Liu Yanzhao will directly order to kill Mu Jialang." ”

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "Then what should we do?" You can't watch Mu Jialang die here. ”

Qiao Daoqing sighed lightly and said, "That's it, I'll go to the Yamen of Jiedu, only Mu Jialang is my relationship, and then give some money to Liu Yanshou to see if I can rescue Mu Jialang." ”

Zhao Zhen hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Then it's troublesome Uncle Shi." Qiao Daoqing waved his hand and said: "This has nothing to do with you, he often comes to visit me, if I can't protect him, how will I see my old friend in the future." After that, he called two Taoist boys over, changed their clothes, and then went out to watch.

Zhao Zhen and the three of them sat and waited here until it was dark, Qiao Daoqing didn't come back, and the three of them were hungry, so Yang Zhi said to Zhao Zhen: "Daguan, if we eat in this Taoist temple, I'm afraid that when Su Zhai comes to the house, there is a restaurant on the side of the road, and he buys wine and meat, so it is better to go there to eat something and come back." ”

Zhao Zhen also nodded and said, "It's just right, the somen noodles at that meeting are too unpalatable, so let's go out and find something to stutter." Just now he was idle and talked to Dao Tong only to know that the people in the view were almost gone, the cooking was not there, just now it was an ordinary Taoist who cooked noodles, Zhao Zhen must be used to eating mouth, I really can't stand that thing, although I can eat it, but I can't eat it, or don't eat it.

So the three of them slipped out of Longyou Temple, only to find that the restaurant had closed its door, and Yang Zhi said in embarrassment: "How can this be?" ”

Zhao Zhen looked around, pointed to a restaurant opposite, and said, "Just go there to eat, and go back after eating." ”

At that moment, the three of them went to the restaurant, and they did not enter the private room, so they sat in the lobby, asked for some wine and meat and ate it, and while eating, a man in brocade clothes walked in with more than a dozen subordinates and two people dressed as businessmen, and the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and said, "Why did the son come over?" ”

The brocade boy said, "Is the private room I asked you to keep still there?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "Naturally, it's still there, who dares to rob your private room." The boy nodded, waved his hand and said, "Lead the way." At that moment, the shopkeeper took them and headed towards the private room on the second floor.

Yan Qing kept staring at these people, and after seeing them go up to the second floor, she pulled a guy and said, "Second brother, who was that son just now?" ”

The second made a look of surprise and said: "How can the guests not recognize it, that is Liu Cun, the eldest son of our new Xiangzhou Zhizhou Liu Darao, and the first of our family's 'five sons of the Liu family' in Xiangzhou." ”

Zhao Zhen said with some curiosity: "The fifth son of the Liu family? Who are the five sons? ”

"Naturally, it is the eldest son of Liu Tang of the Prime Minister's family, the second son of Liu Ping and the eldest son of Liu Cun and the ...... of the ancestral family of the husband of Zhizhou." Before the second voice fell, I heard the shopkeeper upstairs shouting: "Li Er hasn't come up yet!" The two hurriedly confessed and hurried upstairs.

Yang Zhi said to Yan Qing: "B, do you know that son?" ”

Yan Qing shook his head and said: "I don't recognize him, but I recognize the businessman with a mustache next to him, he is a master of Jinbang, named E Lihe, when we were engaged with Jinren, he went to Liaobang twice to inquire about the news, I had a relationship with him in Shangjing, but at that time he got the news of Liaoguo and went back, his identity was exposed, and he didn't dress up, but I was disguised, so I knew him, but he didn't recognize me." ”

Yang Zhi's eyes widened violently, and he shouted, "The Liu family colluded ......." He didn't come out of the following words, and suddenly thought that there were many people in the restaurant here, so he hurriedly closed his mouth, but he gritted his teeth with hatred and said: "Good thief!" He punched the table hard.

Zhao Zhen's face was not good-looking, and said: "It doesn't have to be the Liu family, maybe it's Liu Yanshou." ”

Yan Qing thought for a while and said, "Why don't I go up and find out the news?" ”

Zhao Zhen said worriedly: "Compared with him, who is better at martial arts?" ”

Yan Qing immediately understood what Zhao Zhen meant, and said: "If you talk about fists and feet, the two of us are half a catty and eight taels, and no one is stronger than anyone, if you talk about weapons, when there is no treasure knife, I lost to his Five Elements Wheel in a fight with him, but I am far better than him in light skills." ”

Zhao Zhen was relieved at this time, so he said: "Then you go up, all your hearts, don't alarm him." ”

Yan Qing smiled and nodded, then took out a thin mask from his arms, and pasted it on his face, which just fitted, and in the blink of an eye, he changed into a different person, and then got up and went out.

Zhao Zhen had no intention of eating again, so he looked upstairs from time to time, but Yang Zhi was eating, he knew that once Yan Qing missed, he was afraid that he would fight, this is the territory of the Liu family, it is not a matter of fighting, this will be better to save up enough strength first.

Time passed little by little, and suddenly there was a sharp and frightened cry downstairs, and then a burst of scolding sounded, Zhao Zhen and Yang Zhi stood up at the same time, and walked quickly to the staircase, but before they could go up, the two who had just talked to them came down, sweating profusely and opening their hands, and said continuously: "It's okay, it's okay, don't go up, it's been covered by a distinguished guest." ”

His voice fell, and there was another scream upstairs, Yang Zhier pushed the two away without raising his hand, and strode downstairs, Zhao Zhen followed, and the other diners saw that they were lively and beautiful, and immediately followed.

Upstairs, there is only one private room with guests, this will be the door of the private room, a prostitute fell in front of the door, looking at the private room in fear, one of the two guests accompanied by Liu Cun without eyebrows A big man with no eyebrows grabbed a handful and stood at the door, and he didn't know what was in his mouth, and E Lihe, who had a mustache, pulled him with an ugly face, and Liu Cun and others were also standing aside, standing with an embarrassed face.

As soon as Yang Zhi rushed up, one of Liu Cun's subordinates saw it first and couldn't help but be annoyed; "Shopkeeper Chen, what's going on? Didn't our son-in-law take all the upstairs down? Who let them come up? ”

The shopkeeper was sweating, hurriedly apologized, and then said to Yang Zhi: "This guest, you can't manage it here, go down quickly." Then he came to push Yang Zhi, but he used enough strength and couldn't push a point, Yang Zhi stood there as if he had taken root.

Zhao Zhen took a step forward and said, "We just want to know, what are you doing here?" Killing? ”

When Liu Cun heard this, he turned his head to Zhao Zhen and said gloomily: "What are you doing here, don't leave yet!" ”

Zhao Zhen said calmly: "I think it has nothing to do with me, but can Young Master Liu explain what he has in his mouth?" There are officers and soldiers outside, so it's better to call a few in and listen to what he has to say, I think; Someone should be able to understand, right? ”

Liu Cun's eyes suddenly gave birth to a killing intent, and he looked at Zhao Zhen, at this time E Lihe suddenly said: "My friend is a Khitan, just now this girl arrived in Daliao, the words are quite disrespectful, my friend is sentimental, so he will push this girl, I didn't expect this girl to be a Liao dog and Hu Pig scolding, my friend was angry, pulled out a knife, but everyone saw it, we are all blocking, there is no mountain this girl a little, worried about you, it really shouldn't be, please forgive me." Then he made a circle to the people who went upstairs, and said, "I apologize to everyone on behalf of my friend." ”

E Lihe is completely a Jinyang accent, very pure, outsiders don't hear anything wrong at all, coupled with his respectful attitude, everyone's annoyance will dissipate at once, if it weren't for Zhao Zhen and Yang Zhi knowing his identity, he would really be deceived.

Zhao Zhen was just about to break him again, a stone flew over and hit his arm, Zhao Zhen's heart moved, and he looked towards where the stone came from, and saw Yan Qing, who had changed his appearance, standing outside the crowd, squeezing his eyebrows at him, so he said: "In this case, then please ask Liu Gongzi to take care of your friends, after all, they are all in the restaurant, and the trouble is not good-looking, and everyone is not cheap." ”

Liu Cun also came to his senses and knew that he couldn't do it in front of everyone, so he said: "Come on, send this girl back and give her ten taels of silver as an apology." Then he said to the public: "What happened just now, it's not right, I'm here to make amends, and now everyone's wine accounts in this 'Cloud Building' are counted on me, so I invite everyone to give you a sin." ”

Everyone cheered together, and they all dispersed, Zhao Zhen saw Yan Qing walking down and making a gesture to him, so he stepped forward, pushed Liu Cun's people away, and said in a deep voice: "This girl, let's send her back." ”
