When I came out of the imperial city, it was already late. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Yuanji waited outside the Chengtian Gate for a long time, and when he saw Li Yanqing coming out, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

"Brother Wang, you've finally come out!"

Li Yanqing didn't dare to hold it up, so he hurriedly bowed, "His Royal Highness King Qi, is there something wrong with Xiao Wang?" ”

"Brother Wang, you are really a noble person, how forgetful...... Have you forgotten, didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say yesterday that he would hold a banquet in the East Palace? ”

Li Yanqing, I really forgot about it!

He glanced left and right, stretched out his hand to pull Li Yuanji to the side, and said in a low voice: "King Qi, you and my brother, you should know that I have always admired the crown prince. Originally, I did promise the prince, but now it seems that I can't go. ”

"Why is that?"

"King Qi still doesn't know?"

"Know what?"

"I just received the news that the Turkic envoy will arrive in Chang'an.

After a while, His Majesty will definitely invite the Crown Prince to discuss the matter, and if he gets drunk, won't it make His Majesty angry?

You go back as soon as possible, tell His Royal Highness the Prince, let you negotiate a charter as soon as possible, don't be embarrassed when Your Majesty asks. Xiao Wang wants to go to the Honglu Temple Post House immediately to see if he can find out the news. Today, the feast is for the time being, and the business is important. ”

Li Yuanji likes to eat, drink and have fun, but he is not a person who does not know the severity.

His face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Wang's affection, I will definitely convey it to His Royal Highness the Prince, thank you!" ”

Seeing Li Yuanji leave, Yan Qing smiled helplessly.

To be honest, in this Chang'an City, it is indeed not as happy as Luoyang...... Not to mention anything else, the problem of standing in line alone is a headache. It is difficult to get along with Li Shimin at present, and it is not good to be too distant from Li Jiancheng. Before he was sure, it was impossible for Li Yanqing to reveal his true thoughts. Fortunately, Li Yuan's prestige is still long, as long as he stands on Li Yuan's side, he still has enough opportunities.

After walking out of the gate of Zhutian, I saw a man hurrying into the palace.

Li Yanqing recognized that the person was Zhongshu Ling Feng Lun, so he said hello to him and left by mistake.

It seems that Li Yuan is about to prepare for action......―――――――――――――――― "See, that guy is the king of Henan!" ”

At the corner of Suzaku Street, there is a three-story restaurant.

Sitting on the top floor, you can clearly see the Suzaku Gate and the people entering and exiting through the Suzaku Gate.

When Li Yanqing walked out of the Vermilion Bird Gate, he was sensitively aware that someone seemed to be secretly observing him. looked around, but didn't find anything unusual, so he called Zheng Dabiao and Liu Heng, got on the horse and hurried back home.

As soon as he left, a few people walked out of the window on the top floor of the third floor of the restaurant.

Headed by Cheng Yanjin, the general of Tiance Mansion. Beside him, there were three other children. The eldest was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the youngest was only in his early teens.

"Uncle Cheng, why don't you let us go out and stop him?"

"What can you do if you stop him?"

The older child stared at Li Yanqing's back and disappeared around the corner of the long street, gritted his teeth and said, "I want to avenge my father." ”

"Revenge?"

Cheng Yanjin sneered, "Why do you want to take revenge?" ”

He pulled the three children to sit down, sighed and said, "Baolin, Baoqing, Baohuai, it's not that Uncle Cheng is unwilling to avenge your father, but this king of Henan is really powerful." In terms of martial arts, he and your father are dignified and upright, and they are equal; In terms of manpower, did you see the two guys around him? Those two people, one is named Zheng Dabiao, who was born as a Jianghuai bandit and kills people like hemp; The other is called Liu Heng, who is strong in martial arts, and few people can also resist it.

The three of you rushed forward, let alone take revenge, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get close to the side of the king of Henan.

Zheng Dabiao alone is enough to ask for your surname...... There are also black and white scars around the king of Henan, one is called Kan Leng, and the other is called Xiongkuohai, but it is not in Chang'an at present. If the majestic sea comes, with the ability of his four generals, I am afraid that only King Zhao can match it. Your Uncle Qin and Brother Qin don't want to take revenge, but their skills are not as good as others! ”

The three teenagers are the three sons of Wei Chigong.

The eldest son, Yu Chi Baolin, is now a Qianniu and an official in the court.

Three brothers, you look at me, I look at you, I can't help but feel sad...... Li Yanqing killed their Lao Tzu, but the three of them can't take revenge! This makes the three of Baolin, how can they not feel depressed? It's just that Li Yanqinggui is the king of Henan, and he is deeply favored by Li Yuan. If Li Yanqing is really moved, I am afraid that even the King of Qin will not be able to protect them...... Li Yanqing can avenge his father, but we can't avenge his father?

The more Yu Chi Baolin thought about it, the more annoyed he felt, and with a bang, he slapped the wine glass on the wine table.

"The enemy who killed my father is right in front of me, but I can't touch him at all, I am ashamed to be the son of man......"

"Brother, let's fight with him...... It's better to die than to sit here and stare dryly. "Yu Chi Baohuai is the youngest, but he is the most angry.

"That's right, fight with him!"

Cheng Yanjin said: "What to fight? Are you trying to move him? ”

"Uncle Cheng, then you say, what should we do?"

Cheng Yanjin's eyes looked through the window in the direction of Longqingfang. After a long time, he said softly: "Want to kill the king of Henan? I can't help it. But it is not difficult to embarrass him...... In this way, you will do what I say, and you will not be able to make him lose face. This man, the best face! If he loses face, he will make mistakes, and when the time comes, let's watch from the sidelines to see how long he can be rampant...... Pauling, come here, Bolling child......."

―――――――――――― Li Yanqing didn't know that he had been targeted.

Back at the palace, before he could catch his breath, Shen Guang came to the door.

"Lord Wang, I have already inquired clearly."

"What's clear?"

Yan Qing looked at Shen Guang suspiciously while changing his clothes under the service of the maidservant.

Shen Guang signaled, asked the maid to step back, and then personally took a loose cardigan and handed it to Li Yanqing.

This short coat is similar to the Tang costume of later generations, and Li Yanqing only wears it in the mansion.

Shen Guang said: "Yesterday, the prince asked me to inquire about the eighth master, and I have already inquired about it. ”

"So fast?"

Li Yanqing sat on the Taishi chair with a smile and motioned for Shen Guang to sit down and speak.

Shen Guang said: "Lord Wang, speaking of which, this eighth master is quite famous in Chang'an...... This person really made a great career in Chang'an five years ago, and his family was quite wealthy at first, but soon because of his bold surname, he made a generous move and lost all the money in his family. Later, he took care of the hotel in the West Market, and was respected as the eighth master because of his excellent swordsmanship.

After ten years of great cause, he threw himself into the princess's mansion and served in the princess's mansion in Pingyang.

Later, he was introduced by Princess Pingyang and cast into the palace of King Qin...... It is said that when His Majesty was in Dingdingguan, this person was quite meritorious, but I don't know what the reason is, he has always been reluctant to go out, so even many Chang'an celebrities are full of praise for him. Now, this eighth master is the family commander in the Qin Wangfu, but he doesn't like to show his head very much. ”

When Shen Guang said this, he suddenly smiled.

"Lord Wang, you must not guess who this eighth master is sacred!"

Li Yanqing was stunned, "Listening to your tone, could it be that I still know this 'Eighth Master'?" ”

"Lord Wang, do you remember Xiao Nian's brother, that Mao Xiaoba?"

"Mao Gongsui?"

Li Yanqing got up with a smile on his face.

"That's him...... However, after he arrived in Chang'an, he never used the name Mao Gongsui again, and always used his real name. ”

Shen Guang is one of the few people who knows about Mao Xiaoba's existence.

In the Jianguomen riot that year, the husky died outside the end gate, and after Mao Xiaoba killed his parents, he took a large amount of wealth and fled without a trace.

Due to the relationship between Duoduo at that time, Li Yanqing was not easy to report, so he had to suppress this matter.

After that, he went to Minshu and never traced Mao Xiaoba's whereabouts. However, he did not track it down, but it does not mean that he forgot this person. Speaking of which, Mao Xiaoba is still Yanqing's brother-in-law, but this hatred is deeper than the sea.

Mao Xiaonian never mentioned Mao Xiaoba, and even after Yuzhen was born, he didn't tell her that there was such an uncle.

At the same time, Duoduo did not forget Mao Xiaoba.

After recontacting the white-clothed Maitreya, Duoduo's first order was to track down Mao Xiaoba's whereabouts.

But who would have thought that the famous Chang'an Eighth Master was Mao Xiaoba?

Li Yanqing looked at Shen Guang in amazement, and after a while, he suddenly smiled.

"It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it...... However, don't tell the second lady about this matter first. Since Mao Xiaoba is working in the Qin Palace, and has Princess Pingyang as his backer, it is not easy to move him.

Let me think about ......"

Li Yanqing motioned for Shen Guang to sit down.

He wandered around the room, silent for a long time.

The relationship between Li Yanqing and the Qin Wangfu was already a little tense.

killed Wei Chi Jingde before, not only offended Li Shimin, but also offended the group of military generals in Tiance Mansion.

Although, Li Shimin showed a sense of reconciliation.

But if he wants to kill Mao Xiaoba, I'm afraid Li Shimin won't agree.

After all, it's a matter of people's hearts. Yan Qing killed Wei Chigong, Li Shimin couldn't get justice, if he killed Mao Xiaoba again, then Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion would face a situation of falling apart. Li Shimin is fighting against Li Jiancheng, how can he easily agree?

"Shen Guang, Zhu Mei has already been sent out?"

"I left the house last night...... But what the prince said is right, it is better to let the people in the rivers and lakes do the things in the rivers and lakes.

Zhu Mei's eyelids are lively, coupled with his martial arts, he has a relationship with the head of the West Market at noon. According to the news he reported, Chang'an has one hundred and eight squares, a total of seventeen group heads. Among them, there are three people in the big group and fourteen people in the small group, and they are more or less connected with each other...... However, Mao Xiaoba is not among the seventeen group leaders. According to the news inquired by Zhu Mei, half of the 17 regiment leaders in Chang'an had close contacts with Mao Xiaoba.

and Shi Wanbao, which is now the history of Huazhou Thorn, is very close to Mao Xiaoba. This person is very famous in Chang'an and is known as the Chang'an hero. The seventeen regiment leaders in Chang'an have great respect for Shi Wanbao, so they ......"

So what?

Shen Guang didn't say anything, but Yan Qing understood the meaning of his words.

Therefore, it is not an easy thing to deal with Mao Xiaoba.

Li Yanqing couldn't help laughing!

This Mao Xiaoba is really a talent...... After more than ten years, such a situation has been managed in Chang'an, which is really a toss!

Li Yanqing relied on the Zheng family at the beginning and became famous; Later, relying on Changsun Sheng, he gained a firm foothold in Luoyang. But compared to this Mao Xiaoba, Yan Qing was a little ashamed. It's really not easy for this guy to hit this situation with his bare hands.

"Let Zhu Mei not act rashly for the time being."

"Whoa!"

"Immediately inform Chai Gong and ask him to try to gather the best players in the rivers and lakes in Luoyang, and if necessary, he can draw from the white-clothed Maitreya.

I want him to send 100 good players to come to Chang'an secretly within a month......"

Shen Guang was stunned, "Lord Wang, what do you want to ......?"

"There are some things that we can't come up with, but someone has to do it.

If I come forward, it will inevitably lead to another conflict between the Heavenly Ce Mansion and us...... In that case, let them solve it by means of rivers and lakes. Tell Zhu Mei to try to gain a foothold, and I will send him helpers one after another.

By the way, continue to inquire about Mao Xiaoba's affairs, no matter how big or small, you have to inquire clearly.

What has he done in Chang'an over the years? What do you like to eat? Which wine store is it good to go to, and what kind of woman do you like...... In short, ask me about everything, and then wait for my orders. ”

"Now ......"

"Now?"

Li Yanqing's fingers lightly tapped the armrest of the Taishi chair, and smiled at Shen Guang, "The Turks are coming, and they can make me cut off King Qin's arm." ”
