Yuan Shihu frowned, looking at Li Yanqing kneeling in the tent, in fact, the purpose of his trip was very simple, that is, he was ordered by Yuan Jingchu to test him Li Yanqing, and there were indeed people in the court who impeached Li Yanqing, but because Li Yanqing was deeply trusted by Yuan Jingchu before, but over time, Yuan Jingchu also began to doubt Li Yanqing, his military merits were even higher than Yuan Long, the general of the Great Yan State, and he was the first person to be made a marquis, so those people in the court, regardless of civil and military generals, were jealous of Li Yanqing...

Seeing Li Yanqing's performance like this, Yuan Shihu relaxed his frowning brows, and pretended to be serious: "This king is also deeply suspicious of this, but in order to appease the distrust of the people in the court and the general, my father sent this king to Anyang to supervise the army, which can also eliminate those unfavorable influences on the princes..."

Seeing Li Yanqing looking up at him, Yuan Shihu continued: "This king came this time and brought 50,000 elite cavalry and 100,000 stone grain and grass, which is enough for the prince, please get up..."

After Li Yanqing listened, he slowly stood up and arched his hand towards Yuan Shihu: "Humble position to thank the emperor, thank the prince..."

Late at night, Li Yanqing returned to the house, and his wife Li saw that her husband was worried, and while changing his clothes, she asked with concern: "What troubles has my husband encountered, would you like to tell the concubine..."

When Li Yanqing heard this, he sat on the edge of the bed and said lightly: "I want me Li Yanqing to do things for the court loyally, but I can't match the words of the traitors in the court, if it weren't for the emperor's trust, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back today..."

"Why did the husband say this, the husband's exploits to the court are obvious to everyone, I believe that the emperor can also see it clearly, why would he listen to the villain's slander..."

Li Yanqing smiled bitterly when he heard this: "It is precisely because the merit of the husband is too high, so it will attract the envy of the people in the court, today the king of Gaoyang personally came to Anyang to supervise the army, although he came to help the prison army, it is actually surveillance, the prince came to supervise the army, it has already shown that the emperor begins to distrust the husband, if there is a little mistake, I am afraid that there is a worry about his life..."

Tangyin City, the guard commanded the yamen

"Lord Wang..."Huang Wei walked into the yamen quickly, and said to Shangguan Yin Feng, who was drinking tea: "Anyang spies have come to report, Yuan Jingchu's son, Yuan Shihu, the king of Gaoyang, led an army of 50,000 into Anyang, and reprimanded Li Yanqing..."

"Oh..."Originally, Shangguan Yin Feng didn't care about this little thing, but he became interested in Li Yanqing's scolding: "Tell me carefully..."

"No... According to the spies, Yuan Jingchu was deeply dissatisfied with Li Yanqing's defense of Anyang for more than one month, and the Yan State also had different opinions about Li Yanqing, but most of them said that Li Yanqing was supporting the army outside, and the defense of Anyang was stagnant, and it seemed that he was joining forces with our army and intended to rebel, so Yuan Jingchu was angry and sent his son to Anyang to supervise the army..."

After listening to Huang Wei's words, Shangguan Yin Feng smiled slightly: "Li Yanqing's meritorious achievements are high, he is the first person to be made a marquis, it is reasonable to be impeached by the people in his own court, and the disunity within the Yan State has also been revealed, the general Yuan Long has eaten a closed door in Liaodong, and is naturally dissatisfied with Li Yanqing's repeated victories in the south, if this king is not wrong, Li Yanqing is impeached, and Yuan Long can't get out of it..."

"Lord Wang, there have been changes within the enemy army, whether our army can take advantage of this to attack Anyang, maybe we can achieve the desired results..."After Huang Wei listened to Shangguan Yin Feng's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, so he hurriedly offered a plan...

Shangguan Yin Feng nodded, affirming Huang Wei's words: "Your words are reasonable, Li Yanqing suffered this catastrophe, there is some gap for Yuan Jingchu, I am afraid that he will not desperately protect the land of Yan Country as before, if Hebei is without Li Yanqing, even if Yuan Shihu is there, it is not an extra head..." , by the way, how many people from Beizhen Fusi entered Anyang? ā€

As mentioned earlier, the Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi is responsible for inspecting cases and scouts, which is the so-called espionage, which is their main field, after the battle of Tangyin, Shangguan Yin Feng specially ordered Huang Wei to send people to infiltrate Anyang, waiting for the opportunity to move, and prepare for the recapture of Anyang in the future...

"Back to the prince, there are one hundred households and one person from a lowly subordinate who entered Anyang, two people from the general banner, four people from the small banner, and fifteen school captains, who run a tavern in Anyang City, their identities are kept secret and have not been exposed..."

Although there are not many espionage activities in this era, but compared to intelligence collection, I am afraid that no one can compare to Shangguan Yin Feng, there are people in Jinyi Wei all over the thirteen states of China, more or less, more than forty or fifty people, less than one or two people, in short, the intelligence of Shangguan Yin Feng all over the country can know one or two, which can be described as the ancestor of spies in this era...

"Okay, Huang Wei, contact them, try to keep your identity, don't expose it easily, and act according to the plan..."Shangguan Yin Feng nodded expressionlessly, and gave Huang Wei a deep command...

"Humble and ordered..."After speaking, Huang Wei left the yamen...

Ten days later, at the gate of Anyang City, among the crowd entering the city, there was a large group of merchants, a young man dressed as a merchant was stuffing money to the soldiers of the Dayan Kingdom on duty, another handsome young merchant in the caravan paid special attention, after using a lot of money, the caravan successfully entered Anyang City, dragged the horse team to a tavern, and found a relatively remote corner to sit down...

"What do you need, sir?" The shopkeeper walked up and wiped the table with a rag, with a smile on his face...

After kneeling on the mat, the young merchant lowered his head and arranged the clothes on his body, and said at the same time: "The king of heaven covers the tiger..."

The smile on the shopkeeper's face disappeared suddenly after hearing this, and he lowered his head and pretended to obey the orders and raised his eyes to scan the surroundings, although the tavern was full of people, but no one noticed this remote corner, and there was a handsome man sitting next to the middle-aged man, which made him have some doubts in his heart: "The river demon in Pagoda Town..."

After hearing the shopkeeper say the code, the young merchant asked loudly: "Shopkeeper, can there be a separate wing, we have a lot of caravans, and we still have business matters to discuss, and please make it convenient for the little brother..."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper also replied loudly: "Yes, a few gentlemen, please..."

This is just an ordinary request, any rich and powerful person can come to the tavern, and naturally it will not arouse the suspicion of others, under the guidance of the shopkeeper, all the people of the caravan entered the back room of the tavern, where the environment is elegant, it seems to be the residence of the shopkeeper...

Just as the young businessman was about to speak, the shopkeeper led a middle-aged man into the room, and there were many bartenders in the shop behind him, all of whom were holding weapons in their hands, and they were not good...

"Shen Baihu, what do you want to do?" The young businessman was the first to speak, questioning the middle-aged man in the lead...

The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this, and then asked tentatively, "Who is your honor?" ā€

The young businessman smiled when he heard this, took out a gold brand from his arms, handed it to the middle-aged man, and then hugged his hands together and looked at the middle-aged man playfully...

The front of the gold medal is written with the words "Jinyi Pro-Army Gong Wei Division", and on the reverse side is written "Beizhen Fusi Zhen Fu Envoy Huang Wei", after the middle-aged man saw the words on the gold medal, he immediately reacted, took the gold medal and bowed his head to the young man and said: "See the lord..."

"See your lord..."A group of bartenders and shopkeepers behind the middle-aged man all bowed their heads to Huang Wei and saluted...

That's right, the young businessman is Huang Wei, Huang Wei saw the middle-aged man like this, and also smiled: "Okay, no need to be polite..."

The middle-aged man looked at the handsome young man sitting in the first place and asked Huang Weidao, "Dare to ask my lord, who is this?" After the handsome young man entered the room, he sat in the first seat and did not speak, but quietly drank tea...

"Presumptuous..."Huang Wei scolded: "When you see the prince, you still don't kneel..."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately understood, and quickly knelt down on one knee towards the handsome man, clasped his fists and saluted: "Shen Tianci, the lowly Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi Baihu, see the prince..."

The handsome young man is Shangguan Yin Feng, their identities can be seen from entering the room, after the handsome young man sat on the seat, the remaining ten people did not dare to sit down, but stood straight in place, even Huang Wei, the pacification envoy, could only stand, not to mention the person sitting on the seat...

This middle-aged man's name is Shen Tianci, he is the spy leader of the Beizhen Fusi in Anyang, by the way, Shen Tianxi, the general banner in Liaoyang City, is his younger brother, and the two brothers both work for the Beizhen Fusi, because there are mainly four thousand households in charge of intelligence work in the Beizhen Fusi, and they are divided into eight deputy thousand households, and there are more than 200 hundred households below, it is reasonable not to recognize Huang Wei, as for Shangguan Yin Feng, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, they are even more unrecognizable...
