Until Xu Zizhen was gone for a long time, Zhang Bangchang was still in a sluggish state, his eyes were wide and his mouth was open, and he was in such a state only because of Xu Zizhen's words: "The only way to save the lives of His Royal Highness King Kang and yourself is to treat him as the third grandson next door." ”

The corners of Zhang Bangchang's mouth twitched slightly, the third grandson next door? This...... What the is this?

……

Xu Zizhen hummed and returned to the camp, with Zhang Bangchang's cleverness, he must understand what he meant, as for how to implement it, there is no doubt about it, who will not play superficial articles in these years, not to mention the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, who is still a very popular minister.

In the next few days, Wanyan Zongwang still did not appear, every day it was Wushu or Wanyan Chang who accompanied Zhao Gou and others, and Xu Zizhen always followed from a distance, secretly observing everyone.

Today is the sixth day after coming to Zhending, Wushu came to the camp of the Song Mission early, with a friendly smile on his face, saying that he wanted to take Zhao Gou and others into Zhending City to see, there was silence in the Song Mission, but most people's faces were very ugly, Zhending was originally the territory of the Song Dynasty, but now it has become a part of the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and Wushu is still a master, and no one will feel comfortable.

The Song delegation was headed by Zhao Gou, and he naturally had to take the responsibility for the peace talks, but he waited for many days and never saw the serious matter, which made the fire in his heart more and more vigorous, and the words of Wushu were like a powder keg that lit the fuse, and finally broke out: "Hmph, don't work for the fourth prince, this king wants to see it, but I don't know when Brother Ling will return, is it possible that he will not see me again?" ”

"Heh, His Royal Highness King Kang is angry, my brother's military affairs are cumbersome, and I really have no leisure in recent days, so I can't compensate His Highness for my brother!" The expression of the vultures remained unchanged, still smiling and groaning, and really clenched his fists.

Zhao Gou had nowhere to spread fire, his face was pale, and he snorted heavily, Zhang Bangchang suddenly said unhurriedly on the side: "Lord Wang, the peace talks are a matter of importance, and you can't be in a hurry, but it's just a few more days of delay, why be in such a hurry?" ”

As soon as these words came out, most of the Song people around him changed their faces, Zhang Bangchang was obviously not wrong in what he said, but anyone could hear the disrespect in this tone and wording.

Zhao Gou turned his head and glared at Zhang Bangchang coldly, but Zhang Bangchang still lowered his eyebrows, as if he hadn't seen it, although there was no contempt on his face, but that style had revealed his attitude.

A look of surprise flashed in Wushu's eyes, but it quickly covered up the past, and the scene fell into a strange quiet atmosphere, Zhao Gou and Zhang Bangchang were the two heads of the Song Mission, and no one else could interject, Cao Sheng stood next to him without saying a word, and although Wang Yun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, also lowered his head, his eyes turned on Zhang Bangchang and Zhao Gou without a trace, but this scene happened to be seen by Wushu.

The tour of Zhending City stopped, Zhao Gou brushed his sleeves and left, and the invitation was unhappily dispersed, Xu Zizhen watched it with relish in the far corner, and secretly praised in his heart, Zhang Bangchang is really an old Jianghu, this play is performed steadily, no one can see the flaws, even Zhao Gou is really angered by him.

Xu Zizhen was secretly proud, in order to make this play more realistic, he didn't talk about it to Zhao Gou at all, but at this time, it is estimated that Zhang Bangchang is secretly complaining in his heart, but he can't say it, but this is better, the old fox is afraid that he will not dare to offend himself in the future, because only he can clear the charge of disrespect for him.

It's only morning, and there is still a lot of time before noon, Xu Zizhen stretched, explained a few words to Shui Liuli, and then got up and went outside the camp.

Su San has been away for a few days, and even if the efficiency is low, it is time to do something.

After most of the hour, Xu Zizhen had already appeared in Zhending City, and the defenders of the Jin camp would not pay attention to him as a coachman at all, and let him out of the camp with a few ingots of silver, but he had to come back before the change of guard at the camp entrance.

Zhending City is worthy of being an important town on Hebei Road, Xu Zizhen immediately felt a heavy vicissitudes of life after entering the city gate, the streets in the city crisscross and go straight, it is almost difficult to see the twists and turns of the road, just like the upright and hot-blooded Hebei man, but now this big city has lost the bustle and prosperity of the past, and there are only cold streets and heavy atmosphere.

Xu Zizhen stood inside the city gate and exhaled a long breath, war is like this, the disaster brought to every city that suffered from war is not ordinarily heavy, even if the Jin people did not wreak havoc like the future Great Yuan Dynasty after the invasion, but some trauma still inevitably appeared, such as the people.

After the war, I am afraid that only the business of coffin shop will break out in a different way, Xu Zizhen asked a few more people for the sake of safety, and finally determined the target of the largest one in Zhending City - Lu Ji Shoucai.

After the sacking of the war, the city became empty, only a team of golden soldiers patrolled from time to time, but this provided convenience for Xu Zizhen, the street was clear at a glance, and he didn't have to worry about being followed, and soon he found a place, Lu Ji Shoucai, somewhere in the south of the city.

I don't know if it's because of the coffin shop or if this street is biased, in short, there is a gloomy place in front of Lu Ji's door, and there is not even a wild dog at a glance, only an idler sitting under the tree diagonally opposite, who is lazily pinching his feet.

The door of the coffin shop is open, and there are more than a dozen coffins that have been completed in the store, the material is very poor, and the walls are very thin, but in this year of life, not many people will care whether the coffin is good or not, and it is good to have someone collect the body.

Xu Zizhen walked into the shop and glanced around, the shopkeeper didn't come to say hello, sat in the corner with half-closed eyes, this kind of business is very embarrassing, absolutely enthusiastic, Xu Zizhen coughed lightly: "Shopkeeper, buy a coffin." ”

The shopkeeper opened his eyes and said expressionlessly: "What board do you want?" ”

Xu Zizhen opened his mouth and said: "Is there any wicker braiding?" ”

The shopkeeper was obviously stunned, then glanced out of the door without a trace, and turned around and said, "Wicker coffin? That's too much, right? ”

Xu Zizhen said: "My third aunt's dog is dead, and it is not worth taking a plank." ”

A smile suddenly appeared on the shopkeeper's face, and he got up and bowed his hand to Xu Zizhen: "May I ask your surname." ”

Xu Zizhen also arched his hand: "Don't be expensive, double Xu." ”

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand: "Please come with me." ”

Xu Zizhen was about to go in with him, when the curtain on the inside of the store moved, and Su San rushed out in a rage: "Xu Zizhen, why are you here?" I've been waiting for you for days! ”

"Auntie, stop it!" Xu Zizhen was so frightened that he hurriedly pulled her aside, "The city is full of golden dogs, are you yelling so much to kill me?" ”
