The young man with a back that resembles Xiaoba, after crossing the bridge, went straight to Fengdu.

Zheng Yanqing cautiously followed behind, and fell a distance of about ten meters. He hasn't learned to track, but he hasn't eaten pork or seen pigs run, and the routines in later TV series may not all be useful, nor may they be useless at all.

At least the young people didn't notice Yanqing's tracking.

On the one hand, it is because of the gradual increase in pedestrians, which effectively forms a kind of protection.

Zheng Yanqing followed the man into Fengdu, and then passed through two small streets, and saw that the man entered a corner gate.

At this time, Yan Qing will not be able to follow up anymore!

After all, there are few people in that alley, and it is easy to expose yourself. So Yanqing stopped and sat down at a soup cake stall on the side of the road. It was already past noon, and Zheng Yanqing was also a little hungry, so he asked for two bowls of soup cakes, and after gobbling them up, he took out ten copper coins and threw them on the case, as if he inadvertently asked the guy: "This alley is really deserted, the courtyard wall is so high, and it looks like a big family, why does it look deserted?" ”

"Ha, Childe laughed, this is someone's backyard corner door, and I don't usually use it much.

Bypassing from this street, it is the main entrance of Dading Restaurant. This courtyard is the backyard of Dading Restaurant, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter and exit. When buying items, people walk through the corner door on the other side, so this side is a little deserted. ”

"This is the property of Dading Restaurant?"

Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but be stunned, and looked in the direction of the guy's finger.

But no, I patronized the stalker just now, but I didn't notice it, and then I turned a corner and it was the main entrance of Dading Restaurant.

Dading Restaurant is now very famous.

In particular, the Tang Qinghe Tang family, who is well-known in the north, was invited to sit here for 20 days a year, which established the luxurious reputation of Dading Restaurant in one fell swoop. Zheng Yanqing hadn't been there, but Xue Shu had been there once, and after he came back, he showed off.

Yan Qing vaguely remembered that this Dading Restaurant was run by a Xiangzhou businessman.

But this man lived in seclusion, and rarely showed his face, so that outsiders did not know who the merchant was. However, Xue Shui said that this Xiangzhou businessman seems to have dealings with some high-ranking officials in the imperial court. But it is not clear who it is.

Could it be that person is not Mao Xiaoba?

Zheng Yanqing was full of doubts in his heart, sat on the noodle stall for a while, and saw that the corner door was closed, and no one entered or exited, so he got up and left.

He wasn't sure if the person he saw just now was Mao Xiaoba.

If it is Mao Xiaoba, then the origin of this Dading Restaurant is worth pondering...... When passing by Xiongda's house, Zheng Yanqing went to visit Xiongdahammer on the way, and told Xiongdawei about Xiongda's situation in prison. Xiong Da Hammer was indeed very worried about his nephew, and immediately sent someone to the county jail to deal with it. Although Zheng Yanqing has already explained, the necessary intentions should still be offered, this person is warm and cold, and the male sledgehammer knows no less than Zheng Yanqing.

"Grandpa Xiong, I'll ask you about something."

"You say!"

"Dading Restaurant in Fengdu, do you know whose property is in the name of the family?"

There are some things that the people of the market really can't know. But Sledgehammer is no ordinary citizen these days.

Naxiong Ji shops have begun to set up branches in Chang'an, Jiangdu, and even Bashu areas.

The male sledgehammer is not out of the house, but also can be said to be in the gold. Speaking of which, he is also from a lower middle class, and he has a lot of inside information.

"Oh, at the beginning of the year, I had a drink with Steward Zhang, and he said after drinking that the owner of this Dading restaurant seems to be surnamed Ha."

"Huh? Huskies? ”

Sledgehammer nodded repeatedly, "Seems to be the name, Husky...... Merchants of Xiangzhou. However, I heard that Dading Restaurant is not run by him alone, it seems to be a team with a certain powerful person in the court...... But with whom, Steward Zhang is not very clear. Steward Zhang also said that this husky's net worth in Xiangzhou seems to be thick, and it seems to have a very close relationship with a big family in Lingnan. Now Xiongji is in Luoyang's rock sugar, and Dading Restaurant has purchased nearly half of it.

Yanqing, why did you suddenly ask about this? ”

"Oh, nothing, just casually asking."

Male Sledgehammer laughed and said, "Speaking of which, I'm also a little strange. ”

"Strange?"

"Yes, I always feel that the name of this Dading restaurant seems to be a little familiar, but I can't remember what the origin is."

The name of Dading Restaurant, that is the word 'Dading'!

As soon as the male sledgehammer said this, Zheng Yanqing also felt a little familiar.

He chatted with Xiong Da Hammer for a while, and told Xiong Da Hammer that he might have to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors in a few days, and invited him to go to Zhuyuan when he was free, and he could also be a companion with Wang Zheng. In this regard, the male sledgehammer naturally has no opinion. He was tired of living in the city, but he liked the quiet environment of the bamboo garden. It's just that he belongs to that kind of warm surname, and if he lives for a while, he will feel that the bamboo garden is too deserted...... Anyway, back and forth, Zheng Yanqing felt that he was quite happy to do it.

When I left Xiong's house, it was already afternoon.

The head began to go west, but when it shone on the body, it was still warm and comfortable.

Zheng Yanqing urged the horse and walked leisurely all the way to the bamboo garden.

But I was still thinking about the origin of the 'Great Determination' in my mind. Suddenly, he grabbed the reins! Dading?

It's like an era name!

After Yan Qing came to this era, he also had some understanding of the history before this era.

Emperor Xuan of the Western Liang Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty Xiao Jing seems to have used the era name of 'Dading'. Specifically, that year, Yanqing was a little vague. In addition to Xiao Jing, there is another person who has used the era name of 'Dading' in the past hundred years. However, the time is very short, even less than a year...... If it weren't for the male sledgehammer suddenly mentioning the stubble, Yan Qing would not have thought of it.

The last emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Yu Wenyan of Zhou Jing!

He used a total of two era names, one for elephant and the other for Dading. The last year of Yu Wenyan's reign, that is, the year when Yang Jian usurped the power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, was the first year of Dading. It's just because of the short period of time, so in the history books, it is also a passing pass. Emperor Jing of Zhou reigned for a total of three years, so it is basically represented by the elephant year.

The third year of the elephant, that is, the first year of Dading...... Could it be that this Dading Restaurant is related to the Northern Zhou Dynasty or the Western Liang?

If it is related to Xiliang, it is a branch of Queen Xiao; But if it's related to the Northern Zhou Dynasty...... That's against the party!

Zheng Yanqing gasped, a little confused.

He didn't know, whether this Dading restaurant and the husky belonged to the emperor's relatives, or was it the Northern Zhou rebel party?

After returning to Zhuyuan, Xu Shiji couldn't help but be a little nervous when he saw Yanqing's worries.

"Yanqing, what's going on?"

Zheng Yanqing hesitated for a moment and put his arms around Xu Shiji's neck, "Brother Xu, I may have to go to Xingyang in a few days, and when I am not there, there is one thing I want to ask you...... Can you find a way to help me keep an eye on Dading Restaurant? ”

"Dading Restaurant?"

"Well, you can't let others know, especially Mao Wang and his wife."

"Well...... this"

Xu Shiji thought for a while, "Well, just leave it to me." Don't worry, I won't let anyone find out. But why are you staring at Dading Restaurant? I heard that Yuan Qing leaked last time, saying that behind the Dading Restaurant, there is quite a bit of origin. ”

Zheng Yanqing said: "Don't ask so much, just find a way to stare at the corner gate at the head of the Jiuqu Bridge, see what people come in and out of him every day, and don't ask anything else." I will leave you two pieces of silver, only you know about it, I know. ”

Seeing what Zheng Yanqing said solemnly, Xu Shiji did not dare to slack off.

He nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely do this without anyone knowing." ”

Zheng Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief and put this matter aside for the time being.

To be honest, he was not very interested in the Dading Restaurant. Does he care if he is a remnant of the Northern Zhou Dynasty or a member of the Western Liang royal family? It's just that this matter involves Mao Xiaoba, which is equivalent to saying that there is a connection between Dading Restaurant and the white-clothed Maitreya.

Yan Qing had to pay attention to this matter.

At the same time, he is also very curious about the owner of Dading Restaurant.

Husky, will it be the owner of Dading Restaurant? If he is the owner of Dading Restaurant, what does it have to do with Maitreya in white?

————————————————————————- said, just like that, day by day.

Three days later, Luoyang ushered in a fine rainy season. Every day it rains, drizzles, and suddenly it drizzles, and suddenly the sky is blue. In the intervening period, there will be several changes, which are elusive.

Sometimes when you walk down the street, it's a sunny day, but suddenly it starts to drizzle.

Maybe only ten minutes, the rain stopped, and the sun was revealed...... But after an hour or two, it will drizzle again.

Zheng Yanqing goes to Tonghufang to study every day, as usual.

However, due to the weather, Changsun Sheng has not been very comfortable, so most of the time, Yanqing only takes half a day of class.

However, the schoolwork did not fall behind, and when Changsun Sheng was uncomfortable, he would let Yan Qing practice basic skills with a lance, or practice riding and archery in the small school yard in Changsun Mansion. In his spare time, he gave his eldest grandson a fairy tale every day.

Talking about mermaids, talking about the Siren, or the poignant stories in the two chatting fasts, always makes the little girl drunk.

On this day, Zheng Yanqing got the news that Zheng Renji asked him to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors.

It seems that Zheng Renji's situation is indeed not good. It's only been a few days, and I'm responding. If it weren't for the fact that the situation had reached a certain point of being out of control, with his surname, he might not be willing to bow to Yanqing.

After all, Yanqing's conditions are there: Zheng Shi'an enters the clan elders' association!

Who is Cheng Sai On?

A house slave in Anyuan Hall earlier, but he wants to enter the clan elders' association?

There are many old people in Anyuan Hall, and Zheng Shi'an is not the only one. Even if Zheng Shi'an enters the Zheng family tree and becomes a member of An Yuantang, he is just a distant branch side sect, so what qualifications does he have to join the clan elders' association?

Zheng Renji was even willing to agree to such a request, so how erosive the situation in An Yuantang should be.

If Shen Guang has already been in contact with Mao Xiaonian, then Zheng Shi'an must also take action; And Ma Sanbao should also arrive in Jiangdu at this time and meet with Zhang Zhongjian. Zheng Yanqing believes that as long as Zhang Zhongjian is willing to make a move, then this matter will be half done. But I don't know, can Zhang Zhongjian's conditions for him be tempted?

According to Zheng Yanqing's understanding of Zhang Zhongjian, this person is most likely willing to make a move.

Next, it's just a matter of time to see if there's enough time!

After all, between now and the Qingming Ancestral Worship, there is not too much time. If Zhang Zhongjian stepped up his move, maybe it would be too late. If Zhang Zhongjian's side can't settle the Nanlai Zheng family, then the whole plan will fall short.

Yan Qing can only fight now...... After dawn, he ordered the three brothers to prepare for the trip.

This time I returned to Xingyang, I can't be regarded as returning to my hometown, but the gift of the right should be prepared properly, and it cannot be realized.

Fortunately, I was prepared, so I didn't get too nervous.

Zheng Yanqing rode to the copper camel workshop, and after meeting the eldest grandson, he explained his intention.

Changsun Sheng's body and bones were better, and after listening to Zheng Yanqing's words, he told him a few more words. When Yan Qing was about to part, Changsun Sheng suddenly said: "Yan Qing, you go back to your hometown this time, take a trip to Guancheng by the way, and visit a few old friends on my behalf." ”

"Guancheng?"

"I have an old friend, named Cui Zhiren, who used to be the right concubine of the prince, and because of physical reasons, he returned to his hometown, and he was the founding prince of Baishui County. He is a member of the Qinghe Cui clan, and he has a lot of prestige in the land of Guanxing, even if he is too shou of Xingyang, he needs to give him a few thin noodles. In addition, he is also the uncle of the old Zheng Hun family, if you can invite him out, it will be much more convenient. ”

Zheng Yanqing was stunned and looked at Changsun Sheng.

He immediately understood that Changsun Sheng was going to help him!

Just imagine, with the reputation of the Xingyang Zheng clan in the Heluo area, even if it declines, it can involve the change of the hall name, which will inevitably attract the attention of many people. Before Zheng Yanqing, he really didn't know that Cui Zhiren was such a character.

He knew that in Guancheng, that is, Zhengzhou in later generations, there was a clan house of the Qinghe Cui clan.

Zheng Renji's wife, Mrs. Cui, is from the Cui family in Zhengzhou. However, due to the decline of his family background, his status in the clan is not too high. Cui Zhiren is Mrs. Cui's uncle, and it stands to reason that Mrs. Cui should have invited her. But Zheng Renji is now facing such an embarrassment, but the Cui clan in Zhengzhou has no intention of helping.

That must be Mrs. Cui, please Cui Zhiren.

Cui Zhiren has the title of founding duke of the fourth grade, which is enough to offset the pressure brought by the sixth room.

Since Changsun Sheng asked him to visit Cui Zhiren, he must have been confident. Zheng Yanqing bowed to Changsun Sheng, turned around and strode away.

Out of the study, Zheng Yanqing was about to leave, but he didn't want to be stopped by the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Zheng Yanqing, please don't tell Guanyin about those strange things in the future, she refuses to read all day now, it's all weird thoughts. What a vixen, what a mermaid...... You are also a scholar, and you should know that the son is silent and strange and confused. It's not good for you to tell her those things and spread them out. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji had a calm face and seemed very unhappy.

It seems that he was tortured by his eldest grandson Wujian a lot...... Zheng Yanqing smiled and arched his hand: "Brother Wuji, I also know that you are thinking about me." It's just that Guanyin is still young, and if you tell her those female commandments and other things, she may not dare to be interested. She likes to listen to stories, so let her have a happy childhood, so why force it? ”

"But do you know her ......?"

The eldest grandson Wuji was very unhappy, with a gloomy face, and pulled Yanqing to the side, "I also know your kindness." But can you please not talk about the weird stuff? Two days ago, when I was reading in the house, I felt that the yard was gloomy and compassionate...... As a result, when I searched, I found that it was the little girl who made a ghost, and she said that she was going to test my will.

I ask you, you tell stories, just tell some normal ...... Don't be a fox spirit, an ancient temple deep in the mountains...... I'm going crazy with her! ”

It turned out that since the eldest grandson Wujian listened to Zheng Yanqing's stories, he began to imitate some of the fragments in them.

For example, she would be bedridden in the morning, and when Madame Gao asked her, she replied that she would not wake up until the prince kissed her.

made Mrs. Gao so troubled that she couldn't cry or laugh.

Or when the eldest grandson Wuji was studying, she took a few maidservants to pretend to be ghosts outside the window.

even asked the maid to be a fox spirit to seduce the eldest grandson Wuji, and then solemnly said that it was a test of the eldest grandson Wuji's mind.

This kind of thing happened again and again, and the eldest grandson Wuji was a little unbearable.

As a last resort, he had no choice but to find Zheng Yanqing in private.

Zheng Yanqing felt a little funny, but he didn't expect that the virtuous and dignified eldest grandson queen in the history books would have such a lively surname when she was a child.

He repeatedly apologized to his eldest grandson Wuji, and this was the only way to pass the test.

It's just that when he was about to leave, he was pulled by the eldest grandson Wuji again, and asked mysteriously: "Yanqing, can there be a follow-up to your three kingdoms?" ”
