The Xuanwu Gate entered the Sichuan in advance, and it also acted in advance. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Because of Zhu Qing's intelligence, Xuanwu did not lead his troops forward. First send 3,000 brocade clothes to infiltrate Chengdu and find out. The three thousand brocade guards scouting a city and looking for an organization are by no means ordinary actions. In the past, the dispatch of more than a dozen people has already shown the strength of Jinyiwei, and now 3,000 people have been invested in Chengdu, which shows the urgency of this task.

The Xuanwu Men internal guards were skillful in quickly dividing the 3,000 people into several groups, disguised as various characters such as workers, peasants, merchants, beggars, pornography, gambling, and drugs. They not only want to find out the news of the Dongying Society, but also the internal force that Jinyiwei has planted in Chengdu. This is also the main reason why Zhu Qing and Xuanwu used the three thousand brocade guards at once.

Although Jinyiwei's execution is very strong, these people who have just entered Chengdu have walked around and have not found any clues, let alone the sign of white sun and green smoke. It can be seen that the Dongying Club is indeed very different from other gang organizations, and its actions are extremely secretive.

But there is always a mistake in Baimi. The 6,000 eyes of the 3,000 brocade guards are like walking scanners, and they are bound to turn Chengdu upside down to see the truth. Eventually, they found a clue on an inconspicuous stone road - a group of craftsmen were building a road around the city. This is an earlier decree of the imperial court, and the Sichuan Prefecture personally supervised the work, which Jinyiwei knows, so it is not unusual.

After Jinyiwei entered Sichuan, except for others, the internal guards did not disguise, and the internal guards generally followed Xuanwu's side, often showing their faces, and the dress may be even more suspicious. Therefore, after arranging for his subordinates to infiltrate Chengdu, the internal guards decided to visit Xin Tianzheng, the capital of Sichuan Prefecture, according to Xuanwu's instructions. Of course, the name of the patroller who hit. It was the imperial court that sent someone to see the progress of the project. The general patrol is not an official title, and the status is not high, but it is under the banner of the imperial court, and the place has to hold it. After all, most of the situation of this project is reported directly to the Ministry of Works by the inspectors, and the Ministry of Works then reports to the emperor. If the Ministry of Industry is properly managed, then the general state government will not come forward to meet the inspectors, but if the Ministry of Workers is right, and the other party's kung fu is not in place, then the inspectors are their little ancestors and must be treated well.

Because there is a wealthy businessman like Chen Jiujin in the Sichuan Prefecture, the Ministry of Industry is very face-saving, and since Chengdu is now under the control of the Dongying Association, these people know better how to buy relationships, so it is not flattering for ordinary patrol workers to go to Sichuan.

But Xuanwu's internal guards are different, because although people are in the name of patrolmen, they do the work of Jinyiwei, and the patrolmen can be offended, but Jinyiwei is absolutely impossible, and no official is stupid enough to offend Jinyiwei. Especially the Jinyi Guard under the control of Qinglong, it is no longer what it used to be.

"Master, a little patrolman, why should we go to see him? Let the little ones go to get rid of it, it's really not good, just give more oil and water. In the Chengdu Prefecture of Sichuan, Xin Tianzheng's housekeeper said with a sinister eyebrow.

Xin Tianzheng paced back and forth in the hall for a few steps, still a little uneasy, "As the saying goes, the king of Hades is easy to see little ghosts, although we are okay with the Ministry of Works, but I don't know who the patrol workers sent by the imperial court this time are." It's better to make a decision after figuring out. ”

At this moment, a middle-aged man with white hair and beard stroked his beard and stood up and said, "According to the report from the spies, it is the internal guard of the Xuanwu Sect who came. This middle-aged man is not an outsider, it is Xin Tianzheng's master bookkeeper, known as Mr. Watanabe. Don't look at his silver hair, but he is only in his early thirties, and he wants to be a warrior in his old age. As for why he has gray hair, there is no way to know, but this person is very important to Xin Tianzheng. Although he is in the name of the main book, he is a person who can speak as well as Xin Tianzheng in the state capital.

"Oh? Is it the one of the brocade guards? After hearing this, the butler couldn't help but be surprised, and seemed to regret what he had just said, and sent the brocade guard, based on the meaning of these words alone, the butler was likely to have a nightmare tonight.

Watanabe didn't answer, even if it was a colleague, in his eyes, he wouldn't be good friends with someone like a housekeeper, but he just looked at Xin Tianzheng's face, and even sometimes, Xin Tianzheng's face didn't work. Therefore, Watanabe's arrogance is well known to people in the state capital.

"Sir, do you think we should meet this brocade guard?" This time, Xin Tianzheng put Jinyiwei in front to show that he paid enough attention.

Xin Tianzheng asked, no matter how arrogant Watanabe was, it was not good to be. He stroked his beard again, pondered for a moment, and nodded, "See." We don't need to get in trouble with Jinyiwei. ”

After hearing this, Xin Tianzheng nodded. The butler observed his words and said tentatively, "That'...... I'm going to prepare a feast? ”

This time, Watanabe quickly rejected the official's words, "No! The current Jinyiwei doesn't know this, so let's take a look around the scene for him personally......" Watanabe said, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, he thought he had figured out Jinyiwei's temper. Indeed, the current Jinyiwei is very different from the previous Jinyiwei, go to the place to do business first and then go to the wine table, and even some Jinyiwei are more upright, and they don't even accept hospitality, because Jinyiwei's breeze reward can be more glorious than a meal. At that time, Zhu Qing set up a reward for Jinyiwei in order to promote the style of Jinyiwei, and those who won this reward could be described as both fame and fortune, and they were even received by the emperor. The inner and outer guards of the gates of the brocade guard have won many Qingfeng awards. I want to come to Watanabe to understand this situation very well, since it is an internal guard, the best reception is not chicken, duck and fish, beauty and wine, but to do what he likes, if this internal guard is rewarded again, then the project of Sichuan is easy to say. Jin Yiwei won't always keep an eye on this side.

Listening to Watanabe's words, Xin Tianzheng couldn't help but give a thumbs up to him, the main bookkeeper, "It's still Mr. Gaoji." As he spoke, he turned to the housekeeper and instructed, "Pass the order, let General Liu choose a good construction site, and my husband and I will take the inspector over to inspect it later!" ”

Since he went to the construction site, the surface work still had to be done, so it can be seen that Xin Tianzheng also knows his own project.

"Yes, sir!" The steward took the order and departed.

Xin Tianzheng and Mr. Watanabe also walked out of the mansion, and when they arrived at the door, they got into the sedan chair. When traveling in the state capital, it is reasonable to sit in a sedan chair, otherwise it seems too fake, but it makes Jinyiwei aware of it. So the two of them each got on a sedan chair and rushed to the construction site on North Street. Because Xin Tianzheng received the news of the recent visit of the patrol workers a few days ago, of course, this news was released by Jinyiwei to prepare for this operation. And because the inspectors generally come from the imperial court in the north, the first thing they see must be North Street, so Xin Tianzheng has already made arrangements. Let Vice General Liu focus on doing a good job in the North Street project.

So when Xin Tianzheng, who went to North Street from the center of the city, saw the internal guard patrol of Xuanwu Gate, the expression on the patrolman's face was joyful. This made Xin Tianzheng agree with Watanabe's opinion even more, this person, he really has to do what he likes! This has to pass this section of inspection, and the rest of the matter is easy to say.

When the internal guard saw Xin Tianzheng getting off the sedan chair, he also greeted him with a smile, the imperial court inspected the local area, and also faced the feedback of the locality, if the local official fed back that the imperial court patrol was bullying, then the same could not eat good fruit, and if the patrol was Jinyiwei, the local official's feedback was true, not to mention the Qingfeng reward, even the existing Yulu was afraid to cut a big cut. Therefore, both sides should also pretend to be polite.

When Neiwei greeted Xin Tianzheng, Watanabe also got down from the sedan chair, Neiwei looked at the white-haired middle-aged man, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, Xin Tianzheng saw this and hurriedly introduced it to both parties.

"Watanabe greets the inner guard, please ......" Watanabe said to the inner guard.

Neiwei was stunned and smiled, "Sir, please." After returning the salute, the internal guard also followed Xin Tianzheng and Watanabe to inspect the construction of North Street.

As he walked, the inner guard bent down from time to time and quietly laid the stone slab on the ground. The sound is very rich, not like a fake, at least this section is of excellent quality. The guards inspected and instructed their entourage to record it. This time, the internal guard only brought four followers, but they were all masters of one to one.

This also made Watanabe aware of it, but it's normal for Jin Yiwei to know a little kung fu.

"The internal guard brought these brothers?" Watanabe asked casually.

Neiwei nodded, "Don't hide it from Mr., and I'm not afraid of Lord Xin's jokes, the river is far away, and the brothers are reluctant to come, these people are still ordered by the door master to follow." I hope that this project will pass the inspection once, and it will be a good thing for you, the court, and us who run errands......" Sure enough, he is the one who has received the Qingfeng reward, and he is quite stable in his work.

After hearing this, Xin Tianzheng and Watanabe were not angry, but looked at each other and laughed, "Then there will be labor inspectors, Xin must hurry up the construction period, complete the task with quality and quantity, and give the court a satisfactory explanation." ”

Xin Tianzheng and his entourage took a few Jinyiwei to patrol the north street for a long time, because arrangements had already been made, so they did not find any problems, not to mention, Jinyiwei's main task this time was not to really patrol, but to go to the territory of the state capital to take a stroll, even if he showed his face to say hello. After all, the news has been released, wouldn't it make people suspicious if they didn't see it?

"The project inspection is very smooth, then the general will retire first, hurry back to report to the Ministry of Industry, and then submit it to the emperor for approval after the work is completed. The internal guard decided to stop there, and although several of his entourage were not sure if he had seen the clues, they still had to listen to the orders.

"The patrol really doesn't stay for a meal?" Xin Tianzheng said meaningfully.

"I won't eat it this time, and the next time I come to announce the list, I will celebrate with the adults." The inner guard responded with a fist.

"The internal guard is coming by boat? I'll give you a ride. Watanabe asked.

After hearing this, the internal guard thought that the master of the door, Xuanwu, was at the ferry at the moment, and he must not lead others to the river, so he smiled and shook his head, "No, we came on horseback, and there are a lot of horses on this road, you can see the dust of our road." ”

Watanabe looked at the dust on the inner guard, and nodded, "Well, since you can't help you catch the wind and wash the dust, how about sending a few generals and horses?" Watanabe said, glancing at Xin Tianzheng, asking for his opinion.

Xin Tianzheng looked at Watanabe's forehead, and quickly nodded in response, "It should, it should." As he spoke, he called out to the butler, "Butler, prepare five good horses for the generals!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

The housekeeper sent someone to bring five horses, and when the internal guard saw it, he thanked Xin Tianzheng and Watanabe, "Then the general will be respectful and obey his fate." Thank you, sir! So saying, he stepped on his horse.

"I'm not far away!" Watanabe and Xin Tian shook their hands at the guards and watched them walk out of the streets of North Street.

"Hmph, what kind of breeze reward, it's just a change of name, my five horses can set it up for more than ten tables and eight tables......" Xin Tianzheng watched Jin Yiwei ride his five good horses away, and couldn't help but feel blood dripping from his heart.

Watanabe stroked his beard, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "If you lose your horse, do you know if it's a blessing?" ”

Xin Tianzheng listened to Watanabe's words, and his heart was a little balanced. After a few words of explanation to Vice General Liu, he went home.

Watanabe excused himself and did not follow Xin Tianzheng back home. After Xin Tianzheng left. Watanabe called Vice General Liu to his side.

"Sir?" In addition to being respectful to Watanabe, Vice General Liu is more of a fear, and it is obvious that the relationship between the two is not ordinary.

"You bring a few capable people, follow those brocade guards, and if you find out that they are still connected with someone, come back and tell me, if not, ......" Watanabe said, glaring at Vice General Liu.

"My subordinates understand." Vice General Liu responded.

Watanabe nodded, tilted his head and closed his eyes slightly, stroked his beard, and said softly, "Do it cleanly, don't let Jinyiwei suspect that something is happening on our territory." ”

"Understood, but ......" Vice General Liu suddenly asked, "The horses you gave them just now are all good horses, and they are all out of the city at this time, can they catch up?" ”

Watanabe smiled coldly after hearing this, "Don't worry, I can catch up, I did something on the horse's shoe, even if I have left the city, I will leave traces." ”

"My subordinates understand!" Vice General Liu replied confidently.

Watanabe didn't speak again, waved his hand slightly, and Vice General Liu led people to follow Jinyiwei.

The five people including the Xuanwu Gate internal guard went out of North Street, but did not go out of the city, they went to an iron shop.

The iron shop greeted an old fellow, "Guest officer, slap the horse?" ”

"Yes." The inner guard responded.

"But this horseshoe is all new!" The old fellow wondered.

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to hit you, you will fight, and I will change all five horses." A brocade guard next to him seemed to have a big temper, so he snorted.

The internal guard pressed him, took out the silver and walked over to the guy, "Brother, we have to go a long way, this horseshoe is not good, please change it to the best in the bunk." The guard said, handing the silver to the man's hand.

The old man didn't say much at this time, and quickly led the horses in, "Okay, wait a minute." As he spoke, he asked the young man to serve tea to the waiting ones.

Taking advantage of the guys' inattention, the internal guard tried the poison and found that it was not poisonous, so he was relieved to let the brothers drink it.

When he was drinking tea, a beggar came over on the side of the road, pestering the brocade guard to eat, the young man was worried that the beggar would scare away the guest, and was about to blast him out, but was stopped by the internal guard, "Hey, little brother, wait a minute." Saying that, the internal guard handed a few dollars to the young man, "Please get him something to eat, you can cook cakes or anything." It's not easy to ...... these days."

The young man took the money, was stunned for a moment, and nodded, "You wait here, I'll go in and get it for you, but you are not allowed to steal anything......" The young man said to the beggar and turned back to the shop.

After seeing the young man leave, the internal guard glanced around, and said as if chatting with the guards beside him, "You take a few brothers and ...... with the white-haired and bearded Watanabe."

"Is that him?" The beggar suddenly answered, obviously, it was his own people.

"I'm not sure, but I haven't seen a master who can travel with the state capital in a sedan chair, and his words are suspicious, so there's something wrong with the horseshoe......," Nei Wei said casually.

This made several other people nod, no wonder he always felt that something was wrong when he saw Watanabe today, it turned out that he was smart but was mistaken by being smart.

"Notify us as soon as you notice the situation, and remember to be careful." The internal guard did not forget to advise.

"Understand ......"

As soon as the beggar finished speaking, the young man walked out of the shop with a baked cake, "This is the only one left, count your name, meet these big brothers, don't come over in the future, don't come over, we can't ...... ourselves" The young man said not politely at all, but looking at the face of the internal guard and Qian, he handed the baked cake to the beggar......

"Thank you...... Thank you......" The beggar pretended to nod his head and left with the biscuits.

After a while, the horseshoe was nailed, and the old man and the young man pulled the horse out.

"Guest, alright." The old man laughed and said, it's been a long time since the iron shop has encountered such a good business.

"Give us the horseshoe you replaced." Said the inner guard.

"It's all changed, what are you still doing with it? Leave it for us to repair, maybe it can still be used. The young man was a little upset when he heard this.

"You can't keep it, you can't use this horseshoe." The inner guard responded.

"Why can't you use it? Our Ma family ......" The young man didn't finish speaking, and was suddenly covered by the old man's mouth.

"Quick, go get those ......horseshoes for a few guest officers," the old man exclaimed.

"Daddy?" The guy doesn't know why.

"Go!" The old man was a little loud, and the little man had to go in and get his horseshoe.

The old man looked at the half of the brocade clothes and guard's waist card that was intentionally or unintentionally exposed by the internal guard, and swallowed his saliva in a daze.

"Someone asked about this, and they said that we went out of the city and didn't change the horseshoe, otherwise don't blame me for not reminding you." Neiwei said lightly.

The old man nodded hurriedly.

"Give! Cheapskate! The young man didn't know the situation, came out with a horseshoe, and glared at the guard angrily.

The inner guard took the horseshoe, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and touched the little man's head, "You still have to learn more from your father." So saying, he took his horseshoe and stepped on his horseback, and hurried to the city gate.

After a while, before the old man in the iron shop came to his senses, a team of people suddenly came to the door, there were more than a dozen people, and the leader of the team was General Liu, the deputy general of the state capital.

Vice General Liu led the team past the door of the iron shop and couldn't help but hold the reins and turn into the iron shop, because he saw horseshoe prints and a fragrance.

"Did five people come just now, riding five horses?" Vice General Liu asked forward.

The old man nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes." ”

"They changed horseshoe?"

The old man remembered Neiwei's words, and quickly shook his head, "No...... There is no ......"

"You're lying!"

"I didn't ...... Really, General, they are Jinyi Guards, if they want to change horseshoe, do I dare not change them for them? They just inquired about the directions, and then went out of the city. ”

When Vice General Liu heard this, he then asked, "In what direction?" ”

"It seems to be ...... north"

"Hmph...... If you dare to lie, see if I come back and don't clean you up! Walk! Vice General Liu pushed the old man, straddled the horse, led people out of the city, and chased him north.

"What Jinyi Wei, his identity will be exposed at every turn, hum!" Vice General Liu couldn't help but sneer. He didn't know that the internal guard was here to save the lives of the iron shop father and son.

After the officers and soldiers left, the young man hurriedly helped the old man up and asked tremblingly, "Dad, are those five people really Jinyi Wei just now?" ”

The old man stood up, looked at the silver in his hand, nodded, and sighed lightly, "This silver is not easy to earn......"
