Chapter 123: The Hometown of the Great Han
The Gyeongwon Lee family is the largest relative of Goryeo, and the wives of the four generations of Goryeo monarchs are all from the Gyeongwon Lee family.
The situation of foreign relatives interfering in politics is generally because the monarch is confused and cowardly, and the current monarch of Goryeo, Ruizong Wangmata, is not a confused lord, and during his reign, although the Gyeongwon Li family is also very strong, it has not yet reached the strength to influence the court situation.
So Qingyuan Li pinned his hopes on Wang Yu's son, Wang Kai, who let this kid be young and easy to fiddle with!
The current head of the Li family in Qingyuan is called Li Ziqian, who is the father-in-law of the king of Goryeo, and Li Ziqian knows very well that if he wants the Li family to rise again, he must first kill Wang Mata.
It's just that Wang Yu's means of controlling power are very strong, and if he wants to play any tricks like assassination, it won't work at all.
It just so happened that Wang Yu was sick at this time, and it was the kind that could be braided at any time, so Li Ziqian would not let anything that could save Wang Yu appear.
In fact, it is difficult to say whether the thousand-year-old ginseng can continue its life, but for thousands of years, this thing has been rumored to be miraculous, so there is a saying that the thousand-year-old ginseng will be offered to renew the life of the king of Goryeo.
Zhao Yu didn't know much about these things, Wu Qian had heard that a young master from the Li family in Qingyuan had gone to Huining, and no matter how Zhao Yu covered it up, the kind of luxury he had on him couldn't be concealed, so Wu Qian misunderstood.
However, Wu Qian knows the inside story of Goryeo, not because he wants to participate in political affairs, but because he must have a political sense as a big businessman.
Zhao Yu likes to drink spirits, which is a habit in his previous life, and the wine in the north just fulfills his wishes.
Wu Qian's wine is also very good, one sip down, like a line of fire into the throat and straight to the heart, the whole person seems to be burning.
After chatting for a while, Wu Qian suddenly took a small package from behind him, and after opening it, there was a pile of scattered silver inside, which seemed to be several hundred taels.
"Don't hide it, I really have something to ask for, if Childe can agree, these are Childe's rewards"
"It depends on what is going on, if my brother agrees without asking, does Brother Wu dare to believe me?"
"Huh! That's right, but Wu is in love."
While speaking, Wu Qian took out a long box from behind him and put it on the table, and said, "Wu wants to ask Gongzi to send this thing to Kaijing."
"It's as simple as that?"
"Childe, don't underestimate this thing, it is a thousand-year-old ginseng that can continue life, I don't know how many people covet it in secret, I led a large team of people to attract the attention of the gangsters, and Childe secretly sent it to Kaijing, after the thing arrived safely, there was another tattoo of silver thousands of miles away"
"Can I ask Brother Wu why he believes in him?"
"Born from the heart, although the son is not very old, he is an upright person at first glance, the most important thing is because we are all Han Chinese"
The arguments are so powerful that you can't find a reason to refute them.
After looking at Wu Qian for a moment, Zhao Yu suddenly smiled and said, "Okay!" ”
It's a good thing to be believed, but it's a different story if someone who believes in you has ulterior motives.
Zhao Yu didn't need to look at it to know that the long box was definitely not a thousand-year-old ginseng, that is, he was the bait.
Returning to his account, Han Shizhong couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, you shouldn't agree"
Zhao Yu fiddled with the long box sealed by fire paint for a while, and then said lightly: "Can you still think of a better way to enter Goryeo?" ”
Han Shizhong was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood, but Zhao Yu's move would definitely put a few people in danger.
After being pursued by the Jurchens, and there is an unknown danger ahead, this trip to Goryeo is going to be very lively...
After dawn, as soon as the smoke rose from the camp, Zhao Yu and the three of them took the lead.
Looking at the backs of Zhao Yu and the three of them, a person who looked like a master said to Wu Qian worriedly: "Shopkeeper, is that young man credible?" ”
A different color flashed in Wu Qian's eyes, and he said lightly: "Fiction is real, reality is virtual, this is the wisdom left by the ancestors, send a team of people to follow, be careful what tricks he plays"...
It's a very ironic thing, when we are together, we keep saying that compatriots want to take care of each other, but those who stab in the back are often these seemingly harmless compatriots.
Fortunately, Zhao Yu is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Wu Qian and his entourage had breakfast, packed up and stopped on the road, and it was already two hours later.
When passing through a forest, the escort who was exploring the way in front suddenly hurried back to Wu Qian's side and said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, the brothers we sent to follow that kid were all stripped naked and hung on the tree."
Listening to the guard's report, Wu Qian couldn't help but be shocked, and his intuition told him that his little thoughts had already been seen through...
Baozhou, the city closest to the Yalu River, was originally a sharp knife inserted in the armpit of Goryeo, but because of the battle between the Jurchens and the Khitan, it was pulled out by the Goryeo.
In order to completely control the place, Goryeo continued to move its own people to Baozhou, but the occupation time was too short after all, so there were still many Han and Xi people in the city.
The weather is getting warmer, the land is rejuvenated, away from the threat of war, and the city is becoming lively.
The appearance and outfit of Zhao Yu and the three of them are not peculiar, and a few coins and broken silver at the city gate can easily deal with the Goryeo soldiers.
Looking at the low and dilapidated houses in the city and the smell of livestock manure in the air, Zhao Yu couldn't help frowning, the sticks occupied the place, not to mention planning it well, it was a blind place.
Just as Zhao Yudong was looking around, Yan Qing suddenly said softly: "Someone is following!" ”
I found it so quickly!
An imperceptible smile flashed at the corner of Zhao Yu's mouth, and then he continued to walk forward quietly, and his eyes soon fell on an inn on the side of the street that looked clean and tidy with a sign of Chinese characters.
But before Zhao Yu and the others could pass, they saw a guy hurrying over.
"Three guest officers, please, the hot water in the room is ready for a few of them."
Speaking standard Chinese, Zhao Yu couldn't help but wonder: "You know us?" ”
After listening to Zhao Yu's question, the guy smiled and said, "The guest is too uplifting the villain, the villain is lucky enough to know the guest?" Someone described the appearance of the distinguished guest to the villain, and then asked the villain to pay attention to greet him."
Listening to the guy's words, a trace of horror flashed in Zhao Yu's eyes, this is not a matter of not being found, but his whereabouts have long been mastered, who could it be? Is it Wu Qian?
casually stuffed a piece of silver in his hand and said with a smile: "There is little brother Lao, can you tell me what that person looks like?" ”
"Forgive me, the villain can't say much when he is instructed, but the man said that when the guests are rested, they will personally come to the banquet for the guests."
The guy was quite sincere, he couldn't answer Zhao Yu's question, so he directly returned the silver to Zhao Yu, and then quickly took the reins in Zhao Yu's hand, turned around and guided Zhao Yu and them towards the inn.
Will you take the initiative to feast yourself?
Zhao Yu was even more curious in his heart, who is this? In line with the idea of peace when it comes, after giving Yan Qing and Han Shizhong a slight look, he slowly followed the guy...
