Chapter 129 Third Party
Heiyun was able to easily find Ma Sui and Li Riyue hiding in Yonghefang, which shows that they have long been eyeing Gaolishi! It is conceivable that around Gao Lishi's mansion, there are already black clouds in the eyeline, monitoring the entry and exit of people in Gao Lishi's mansion at any time. Pen? Interesting?

If Bu Yunfei ventures to Gao Lishi's mansion, he will inevitably be discovered by Black Cloud.
The only way to do this is to meet Colliers on third-party turf.
In other words, Bu Yunfei needs a reliable middleman.
This person needs to have three conditions, first, this person has enough power and courage, and has the strength and willingness to come forward to act as the intermediary between Bu Yunfei and Gao Lishi; Second, Colliers trusts this man; Second, this person is sure that it has nothing to do with black clouds!
In Chang'an City, there are many dignitaries and nobles, Cui Shuquan also knows a lot of people, he recommended dozens of candidates to Bu Yunfei, on the surface, these people have a good relationship with Gao Lishi, there are princes, there are also Shangshu, Shilang, and Yushi Doctor. But all of them were vetoed by Bu Yunfei.
The reason is simple, no one can meet all three of the above conditions at the same time. Especially the last condition - nothing to do with black clouds.
Bu Yunfei didn't dare to take the slightest risk, he had to ensure that the third party was absolutely reliable, even if it couldn't be done, at least he had to ensure that the secret would not be leaked. This is like a game, the three Bu Yunfei brothers have no capital to gamble, and if they make a slight mistake, their heads will fall to the ground, and they will lose all the games, and they will not even have a chance to turn the tables.
The three brothers had been thinking about it for three days and three nights, and they were at a loss, when Bu Yunfei suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered Yang Yuyao, the wife of the Kingdom of Qiu!
Bu Yunfei didn't have much contact with Mrs. Qiuguo, only twice, the first time was in Cuiyun Village, and the second time was in Liyuan. But these two contacts, Bu Yunfei was extremely dangerous, and in Cuiyun Village, he was almost beaten by a house slave. And in the garden, he almost lost his head - hiding under the bed of Tang Ming Emperor Li Longji, if he was discovered, Bu Yunfei would not be enough to cut off ten heads!
However, through these two meetings, Bu Yunfei found that although Yang Yuyao, the wife of the Kingdom of Qiu, was romantic, compared with the princes and ministers in the Tang Dynasty, she was less insidious and cunning. Yang Yuyao is in her bones, just like her son Pei Shubao, the dumb overlord, she is straightforward, she can do whatever she wants, and she doesn't have much scheming. Even things that hurt nature and reason are done above board!
Because of this, Bu Yunfei believes that Yang Yuyao is an ideal third-party candidate.
First of all, and most importantly, Mrs. Qiu has nothing to do with the black clouds!
The goal of Heiyundu is the Tang Emperor, based on this goal, the current powerful figures in the Tang Dynasty, Gao Lishi and Yang Guozhong, not only will not be the people of Heiyundu, on the contrary, they are the targets of Heiyundu's eradication!
And Yang Yuyao, the wife of the country, is a member of the five families of the Yang family, and their relationship with Yang Guozhong is one glory and one loss, and Heiyun is an enemy of Yang Guozhong, so it is impossible to form an alliance with Yang Yuyao. What's more, among the five Yang families, Yang Yuyao is the most arrogant and domineering, relying on herself and Emperor Tang Ming, and not taking the children of the royal family in her eyes, she and Yongwang Li Lan have already formed a relationship. At the beginning, Li Sixian, Li Lan's daughter, once made a big fuss in Daming Palace because of the horse incident, forcing Yang Yuyao to apologize to the princess and the horse. This matter is well known to everyone in the capital.
What makes Yunfei even more relieved is that Yang Yuyao is just a merry woman who covets glory and wealth, she has no political ambitions and intentions, what she wants is to keep the current glory and wealth. However, Yang Yuyao is fundamentally different from other noble ladies, although she has no political ambitions, she understands politics! She knows very well that the political weather vane in the court is closely related to her glory and wealth. Such a woman, at a critical moment, will know how to choose a side.
Moreover, Bu Yunfei was sure to persuade Yang Yuyao to act as the middleman, and he was even sure to persuade Yang Yuyao to part ways with Yang Guozhong. Because, Bu Yunfei knows that a woman like Yang Yuyao has never read a book of sages, has no sense of morality at all, and her mind is full of powerful relationships. Such a person is hateful, but it is best to convince her, as long as she makes the relationship clear, she will not hesitate to make a choice. On the contrary, those righteous men and gentlemen who are familiar with the books of the sages put morality first, but they will not easily give up their position.
Gao Lishi should also be very satisfied with Yang Yuyao, the middleman - a merry woman with no political ambitions, is a disaster in life, but in politics, she is a treasure.
Although Colliers and Yang Guozhong are political enemies. However, Gao Lishi knows very well that Yang Guozhong has now become the target of public criticism, and the five Yang families have already felt Yang Guozhong's predicament, and they are all looking for backers everywhere at this time. Yang Yuyao should be no exception, at this time, Yang Yuyao is Yang Yuyao, and there is already a rift between her and Yang Guozhong.
More importantly, Gao Lishi, as the head of the inner house, going out of the palace to the mansion of any official will arouse the vigilance of Heiyundu, but it is logical to go to Yang Yuyao's departure garden - everyone knows that Yang Yuyao has a leg with the emperor, and it is common for the emperor to let his personal old slave Gao Lishi visit Yang Yuyao!
What makes Yunfei even more satisfied is that Yang Yuyao's departure from the garden is in Qujiang outside Chang'an City, which is relatively secluded and not easy to attract the attention of others.
Based on the above analysis, Bu Yunfei decided to leave the park as the location for his meeting with Gaolis.
Once you have decided on this strategy, the first thing you need to do is to get in touch with Colliers.
Cui Shuquan volunteered to take on this matter.
Cui Shuquan knew Gao Qiliang, the head of the Gaolishi Mansion.
Cui Shuquan opened a museum, in the name of inheriting culture, gathering people to gamble, although the museum is a casino, but it is not the kind of lowly place in the grass shed, but a high-end consumption place, can enter the museum, are the people in the capital with a face.
That Gao Qiliang is a frequent visitor to the museum.
As the saying goes, the prime minister's seven officials! The power of Gao Lishi is greater than that of the prime minister, and the housekeeper in his house, although he is a servant of the slaves, is the Shangshu of the court, and when he sees Gao Qiliang, he also has to give three points. That Gao Qiliang is the majority of the officials!
Gao Qiliang is Gao Lishi's henchman, this person is smart, thoughtful, follow Gao Lishi, learn a real ability to observe words and colors, judge the situation in everything, guide according to the situation, is simply a little Gao Lishi. This person is a frequent visitor to the Museum, and when he is a little free, he comes to the Museum to gamble.
That's a good bet, but it's different from the average gambler. Gao Qiliang relied on Gao Lishi's support, and those who wanted to see Gao Lishi had to send some ice water to Gao Qiliang, so Gao Qiliang had the money in hand easily, and he was a small rich man. However, Gao Qiliang never gambled, every time he came to the museum, he only gambled one or twenty taels of broken silver, and lived a few addictions, no matter whether he won or lost, at most five hands, he stopped, but did not leave, but let people make a cup of good tea, sit on the side, watch others bet, as if watching a play, leisurely.
That Cui Shuquan is the boss of the museum, and he relies on his family heirloom to learn from his family, and he is polite to those gamblers who come to the door, but he looks down on him in his bones, but he is extremely in awe of this Gao Qiliang.
He is a good gambler, but he is not addicted to gambling, and his skills are average, but he is very determined, which makes Cui Shuquan admire him so much. Over time, Cui Shuquan and Gao Qiliang were proficient, and the two called them brothers, which was very hot.
Therefore, Bu Yunfei had already made a plan to establish contact with Gao Lishi, and he could only start from Gao Qiliang. It's just that the meeting place with Colliers has not been determined, so this thing has not been done.
Among the three brothers, only Cui Shuquan can go out on the street, Bu Yunfei and Bayegu's goal is too big, and it is easy to be targeted when they leave Boling Mansion. And Cui Shuquan's goal is not big, and no one knows that he is with Bu Yunfei, the only problem is that Cui Shuquan is a Tongguan deserter. However, this is not a big problem, these days, there are a lot of eunuchs who escaped from Tongguan, at the beginning, they were worried about being discovered, they all hid at home and did not dare to go out, after a long time, everyone knows what is going on, the government is also turning a blind eye, and many people are on the street in a grand manner. It's all an open secret.
However, when Cui Shuquan met Gao Qiliang, he couldn't go directly to Gaofu.
There must be Heiyundu around Gaofu, Cui Shuquan appeared in Gaofu, after all, he is a deserter, although he will not expose Bu Yunfei for the time being, but it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of Heiyundu. Bu Yunfei can't take this risk.
If you want to see Gao Qiliang, you can only wait for the rabbit in the museum.
After Cui Shuquan was conscripted into the army, the museum was closed. Three days ago, Bu Yunfei lived in Boling Mansion, so he asked Cui Shuquan to send a small servant in the mansion to open the Bo Pavilion.
The museum is a high-end consumption place where rich and noble people in the capital often come, and since the museum has been closed, those rich and noble people are all uncomfortable and itchy hands. Therefore, since the opening of the museum, it has been crowded every day.
In the past three days, Cui Shuquan has not been to the Museum just in case. According to Bu Yunfei's arrangement, the little guy in the house secretly registered the names and identities of the gamblers and presented them to Bu Yunfei every night. Bu Yunfei and Cui Shuquan checked the identities of gamblers one by one, mainly paying attention to two points, first, whether Gao Qiliang came or not, when did he come; Second, there is no suspicious person among the gamblers.
After three days of investigation, Bu Yunfei concluded that the gamblers who came to the museum were all former regulars, and no suspicious characters appeared. This shows that neither Yang Guozhong nor Hei Yundu have yet to notice the Museum. In the past three days, Gao Qiliang came twice, each time in the afternoon, and left after sitting for an hour. It's similar to the previous situation, and it's quite regular.
Therefore, this afternoon, Cui Shuquan had lunch, and then left the Boling Mansion and went to the Bobo Hall to wait for Gao Qiliang.
Bu Yunfei and Baye Gu stayed in the guest room in Boling Mansion, waiting for Cui Shuquan's news.
