Yu Bo's name is Yu Cheng, and when Xuanbu was still in the army, Yu Cheng and Li Yuantang, the current governor of Yuzhou in the Jin Kingdom, have always been the adjutants beside Xuanbu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

has been following Xuanbu in the wind and rain for more than ten years, and has made great contributions. Xuan Bu always wanted to recommend him to serve in the army, but Yu Cheng said that he was indifferent to fame and fortune by nature, and he couldn't stand the atmosphere of officialdom, so he was only willing to be a personal soldier by Xuan Bu's side.

Xuanbu couldn't resist him, so he had to agree, and Yu Cheng had been the head of the palace in Diji for all these years. All the big and small things of the palace are arranged by Cheng Yishou. This is a careful and cautious person, who took care of Xuanbu when he was in the army, and arranged it in an orderly manner in this palace.

Early this morning, Yu Chengcheng began to arrange for everyone in the house to start a day's errands. Approaching the end of the year, Xuanbu was busy with business all day long, and he couldn't take care of the affairs of the house, so he had to have Yu Cheng arrange it properly. Especially the birthday of the prince Xuanjing is the first day of December, and it is an important event in the house every year.

Because Xuanjing is still young, he does not invite outsiders on his birthday every year. Usually, everyone in the house gathers together, and Xuanjing has some children in Diji, and Xuanjing usually has a separate banquet on the second day of his birthday. Otherwise, when the friends see Prince Cheng, they will naturally be stubborn. Xuanbu saw that the young man was not doing right, so he naturally didn't like it, but everyone was not happy.

After Yu Cheng finished arranging the affairs of the palace this morning, he did not return to his room. Instead, a person walked out of the side gate of the palace.

After Yu Cheng got out of the side door, he called a carriage on the street. Digi is the prosperous place of the world, and in addition to the large car officially operated by Jingzhao Yin Yamen in the city, people can travel on their behalf. There are also many horse-drawn carriages operated by car dealers for people to choose from. It's just that Yu Chengnai is the head of the palace, and he actually called a private car when he went out, obviously not wanting others to know about his itinerary.

Yu Cheng ordered the carriage to go out of the East City Gate all the way. Yu Cheng got out of the car outside the East City Gate and came to a tea stall on the side of the official road. When I entered the shop, a guy from inside immediately came up to greet me.

"Guest, are you drinking tea or eating?"

Yu Cheng glanced at the guy, "Let's have a basket of hot buns and make me a pot of flower tea." Tell the shopkeeper to put sugar in the tea! ”

"Okay, wait a minute!" The shopkeeper turned around and went back to the back hall.

After a while, everything Yu Cheng wanted came up. After putting down his things, the guy seemed to inadvertently whisper to Yu Cheng: "Guest officer, the horse has been prepared for you, and it is tied to the pillar at the door." ”

Yu Cheng nodded and began to eat. After eating the steamed buns, Yu Cheng went out and saw that there was indeed a horse tied to the pillar in front of the store. Although it is not a good horse, but at first glance, the coat color is shiny, and it is obviously carefully fed, and it is the most convenient to use for travel. Yu Cheng got on the horse and whipped away.

Yu Cheng hurried all the way, traveled another twenty miles, and came to a temple gate. On the temple door is written the words 'Hanguang Temple'. Yu Cheng tied his horse and walked all the way down the steps into the temple.

The little novice at the gate of the temple was obviously waiting for Yu Cheng, and when he saw Yu Cheng arrive, he immediately stepped forward and said: "The donor is really on time, the guest is already waiting in the teacher's room, please come with me." ”

Xiao Shami led the way, and Yu Cheng followed behind. This Hanguang Temple is an ancient temple in the former dynasty, the world was in turmoil at the end of the Jin Dynasty and the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, and the warrior layer of the Dongyi Kingdom invaded the Central Plains and occupied the emperor. At that time, this Hanguang Temple was requisitioned by the Dongyi military and used as an intelligence command post. Fortunately, Dongyi also believes in Buddhism throughout the country, and this ancient temple was preserved intact in the war.

It's just that it's winter now, the weather is cold, and no one comes to offer incense, so the temple is a little deserted.

Xiao Shami led Yu Cheng around a dozen turns, and finally stopped in front of an inconspicuous monk's house. He bowed to Yu Cheng and said, "Donor, the guest you want to see is waiting for you inside." ”

Yu Cheng let out an "oh", and the little novice retreated with interest. Yu Cheng saw that Xiao Shami was walking away, so he reached out and knocked on the door. A man's voice came from inside the room, "Come in." Yu Chengfang pushed the door and entered.

In the room sat an old man with gray hair and a grim face. Yu Cheng knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Disciple Hattori Zhengcheng sees the teacher!" ”

The old man bowed slightly, "Get up, I've wronged you all these years." ”

Yu Cheng kowtowed again before getting up.

"Zhengcheng, it's been thirty years since the teacher sent you to the Jin Dynasty to go undercover, right?" The old man asked.

"Teacher, it's been thirty-two years!" Yu Cheng bowed and replied.

"So, do you remember the vow you made back then?"

Yu Cheng hurriedly bowed, "Teacher, in the past thirty-two years, students have never dared to forget the oath they made back then. With my body and life, I will serve the Hattori family and never betray! ”

The old man nodded, "Very good, if you remember, our Hattori family has always led the ninjas of Koga and served the Heavenly Emperor family." It has been more than 400 years since the first generation of the clan, Hattori Hanzo, who assisted the emperor's army in invading the Central Plains, collected information, and passed it on to me, and is the twelfth Hattori Hanzo. The old man looked at Yu Cheng, and then said: "When I just took over the position of head of the family, I arranged for you to come to the Central Plains for the emperor's great cause. You have endured humiliation all these years and provided valuable information to the family, and you have indeed been wronged. Now the time has come, we will join forces with Prince Kang, as long as we can kill Xuanbu this time, you can return to China with me, enjoy peace, and never have to live this kind of fearful life again. ”

When Yu Cheng heard this, he was very excited. Since the age of eighteen, he obeyed the orders of his family and was sent to the Central Plains as an undercover agent.

first signed up for the army in Yuzhou, from a small pro-soldier to Xuanbu's deputy general. Later, he made military exploits, but he always had to follow Xuanbu for the sake of the family's great cause. Now Prince Kang and the Genbu brothers are on the wall, which is just the opportunity for the Hattori family, and his teacher, Hattori Hanzo of this generation, has personally come with the mission and stayed in Hanguang Temple in Tegi, precisely to be able to command this game of chess.

"Thanks to the teacher's cultivation and grace, the students will not hesitate to do anything for the sake of the family and the emperor!"

"Well, I've been pleased with your loyalty all these years. Although you lost your father when you were a child, your mother has always been very respected in the family. The family also gave her a high status and treatment, and this time the matter is over, and you can go back and reunite with your mother. The old man's voice was even kinder.

When Yu Cheng heard the news of his mother, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, what he thought about for a long time was not to be able to return to his homeland and do his filial piety by his mother's side. His father died in the middle of the mission when he was very young, and his mother single-handedly pulled him up. When he was young, he was bullied by the eldest children in the clan, and every time his mother led him to the patriarch to seek justice. At the beginning, in order to be able to learn ninjutsu under the teacher, my mother did not hesitate to take out the ancestral jade pendant as a gift to the teacher......

"Teacher, rest assured, with the evidence that the student currently has, it is enough to move to Xuanjing, not to mention that Prince Kang also forged a letter of rebellion between Xuanbu and Li Yuantang, the governor of Yuzhou, and I have secretly stamped Xuanbu's private seal. In the name of Xuanbu's resistance to arrest, we will kill him on the spot! Yu Cheng said this, and couldn't help but feel a burst of pride in his heart.

The old man smiled slightly, "Very good, you have really done a lot of work in the Central Plains over the years." That son of Xuanbu, what are you going to do with it then? ”

"Shizi?" Yu Cheng was stunned, the main goal of this operation is only one, that is, Xuanbu, as long as Xuanbu is killed, even if the mission is successfully completed. As for the others, Yu Cheng didn't think about it.

"Xuan Jing is young after all, and it may be a little difficult to justify his participation in the rebellion, so it is better to hand it over to the inner court of the Jin Kingdom to deal with!" Yu Cheng said.

But a trace of murder flashed in the old man's eyes, "No! On the day of the action, you must keep an eye on that child, and never let that child live at all costs! ”

Yu Cheng was even more puzzled in his heart, "Teacher, that's just a child, what does it matter, according to a felony like Xuanbu." Even if Xuanjing can survive, he will be guarded by the inner court and a slave for life. ”

"You don't understand, I didn't think that kid was important. But last night, my ally told me that he had already seen the child, and that he wanted the child to die, even at the cost of increasing the pay for our cooperation! The old man paced around the room, "That ally, but our most important partner in the Central Plains, since he values that child so much, we must help him no matter what." In the future, many places in the Central Plains will have to rely on this ally! ”

Yu Cheng couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard the old man mention that ally. The man who always wore a black cloak, with an incomparable majesty and pressure. Even he had to die for Xuanjing, what was it for?

However, this is not something I should think about now, as long as I give the crossbowmen of the Shenji Battalion a look, it will not be a very easy problem to solve. As for how to go to the Golden Palace and explain to the emperor, that is the matter of King Kang and King Meng, and what does it have to do with him.

The old man said again: "And the person at the bottom of the lake in the palace, he must not be allowed to live!" ”

Yu Cheng's heart trembled, Yu Cheng knew the identity of the person at the bottom of the lake. On the battlefield in Huangzhou, he even talked about the old man's method of stabbing the enemy general in the midst of ten thousand troops.

And the secret room at the bottom of the lake where the old man lived, only Xuan Bu and himself knew in the palace. If you have to kill the old man, you can only lead the way by yourself, and when the time comes, you can think of a way to get out of the way.

"Students must complete their mission and add glory to the family!" Yu Cheng said, secretly gritting his teeth.

"Well, it's not too early, so you should go back and prepare. Remember, this time is a fool's errand! The old man regained his grim expression.

"Yes, the student quits." Yu Cheng saluted again, and then slowly retreated and went out.
