I saw a middle-aged man with a burly body, well-dressed, beard under his cheeks, and skin and bones as hard as iron outside the gate of the courtyard.

The middle-aged man was followed by two young men wearing dark round-necked robes and "hats", the two young men were white-faced and beardless, and they looked very clean.

Under the gaze of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, I saw the middle-aged man striding to the center of the square, bowing towards Ye Qianqiu, who was at the top, and arching his hand: "Yanfu Palace envoy Tong Guan was ordered to come and congratulate Ye Zhenren on the joy of opening the mountain!" ”

Ye Qianqiu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who called himself Tong Guan, and secretly said in his heart, could this guy be Tong Guan, one of the famous "Six Thieves"?

Looking at this person's burly posture and posture, it really conforms to the description in the history books.

Moreover, Ye Qianqiu could see that Tong Guan had internal strength, and his realm was not low, just looking at his palms, he knew that his skills were profound.

Tong Guan only entered the palace when he was twenty years old and cut his balls and became a palace attendant, and now he claims to be the envoy of Yanfu Palace, it seems that he is in the inner court of Zhao and Song, and he can be regarded as a small power.

After all, in the inner court of the Zhao and Song dynasties, the envoy of the Yanfu Palace was already a figure with a head and a face in the inner province.

Ye Qianqiu smiled, since people came to congratulate him, naturally there was no reason to refuse it.

"Poor Dao is just an outsider, and he doesn't know the nobles of the court, I don't know whose order the Tong Palace envoy came?"

Tong Guan had a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Ye Zhenren is really too polite. ”

"Ye Zhenren opened a sect in Zhongnan Mountain, and protected the safety of one party, which is really immeasurable."

"I came here this time, but I came on the order of Zhang Duzhi to congratulate Ye Zhenren on the joy of opening the mountain."

"A little courtesy, not a respect."

I saw Tong Guan wave his hand, and the two young eunuchs behind him stepped forward carrying a large box.

Tong Guan did not shy away from suspicion, and directly opened the big box in front of everyone, and it turned out to be a whole box of gold, silver and jewelry.

For a while, the generals present were stunned.

It is very rare to give a large box of gold, silver and jewelry as a congratulatory gift in such a straightforward way.

Some people who were not accustomed to seeing the officials of the imperial court whispered: "This guy is really generous...... I don't know where it was fetched. ”

At this time, Tong Guan said again: "Ye Zhenren, these are Zhang Duzhi's intentions, Zhang Duzhi is in charge of the province, and he is busy with official business, so he can't take the time to come and personally congratulate Ye Zhenren, Zhang Duzhi asked someone to apologize to Zhenren, and I hope Ye Zhenren will forgive me." ”

As soon as Tong Guan's words came out, he immediately caused the heroes of the rivers and lakes present to be stunned.

Most of the people present did not know much about the official positions of the imperial court, after all, the people of the rivers and lakes were not closely related to the people of the imperial court.

The inner province mentioned by Tong Guan made people understand that this congratulatory gift was originally sent by the head of the eunuchs in the Song Dynasty.

Some people who knew the rank of the chamberlain in the Zhao Song court couldn't help but gasp and whispered: "I didn't expect that Ye Zhenren actually had a relationship that could reach the heavens. ”

"How can the eunuch leader who can always accompany the emperor get in touch with Ye Zhenren?"

Many of the heroes of the rivers and lakes are puzzled.

On the rivers and lakes, everyone knows that Ye Qianqiu is the number one grandmaster in the world.

But such a character has not been famous in the rivers and lakes at all in the past few decades.

Originally, many people speculated whether Ye Qianqiu was a hermit cultivator who lived in seclusion among the famous mountains and rivers, and had been practicing hard in the mountains for several years, so he had always been infamous in the rivers and lakes.

But right now, the eunuchs in the inner court of Zhao and Song actually knew Ye Qianqiu, which made Ye Qianqiu's origin even more mysterious in the eyes of the heroes of the rivers and lakes.

After all, although Ye Qianqiu is now recognized as the first grandmaster in the rivers and lakes, this kind of reputation is probably only spread among the rivers and lakes, but it is unlikely to be transmitted to the inner court.

Ye Qianqiu heard Tong Guan mention "Zhang Duzhi", and immediately reacted, this Zhang Duzhi should be the old eunuch who pursued Tianshan Tong's grandmother from the Imperial Palace in Tokyo that night.

Although Ye Qianqiu was a little puzzled, he didn't know why this Zhang Duzhi gave him such a heavy gift, but now was obviously not the time to care about this.

Stretching out his hand not to hit the giver, Ye Qianqiu raised his hand and said: "Zhang Duzhi's mind, the poor road has been received, and the Tong Palace envoy has come from afar, please sit down." ”

Tong Guan arched his hand towards Ye Qianqiu again, and sat aside, both in terms of attitude and tone, he was very polite.

Tong Guan sat down in the midst of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, although it seemed a little abrupt, but as soon as he sat down, there was a voice outside the Taoist courtyard.

"Helian Tieshu, the general of the Western Xia State Expedition to the East, was ordered by the concubine to come to congratulate Ye Zhenren on the joy of opening the mountain."

As soon as the words fell, I saw a group of people striding from the gate of the Taoist courtyard.

The leader was a tall man dressed in a red brocade robe, thirty-four or five years old, with a hooked nose and a beard.

The tall man was followed by five people, two of whom looked like Western Xia soldiers, and the other three didn't know what they were, and they didn't look like generals.

I saw the man in the big red brocade robe arching his hand towards Ye Qianqiu and said, "But Shenxiao sent Ye Zhenren to face him?" ”

Ye Qianqiu bowed his head slightly and said, "It's this seat." ”

Ye Qianqiu heard that Helian Tieshu came to congratulate him on the order of the Western Xia Princess, so he understood the three flavors, otherwise Helian Tieshu and the Shenxiao faction only had grudges, why bother to come to congratulate.

I saw the red-robed man bowing towards Ye Qianqiu and said, "Helian Tieshu was ordered by my concubine of the Western Xia Kingdom to come to Ye Zhenren to congratulate him." ”

"A small gift, I hope Ye Zhenren will accept it with a smile."

As the words fell, Helian Tieshu waved his hand and asked the two Western Xia soldiers behind him to deliver the congratulatory gifts.

Ye Qianqiu bowed slightly, without pretense, and said, "General Helian, please take a seat." ”

Helian Tieshu didn't say much, and led a few people behind him to sit aside.

At this time, the elders of the beggar gang who were sitting in the field saw Helian Tieshu and the few people behind him, and their faces were very ugly.

Helian Tieshu turned a blind eye to the beggars and sat down beside Tong Guan with a big grin.

Tong Guan glanced at Helian Tieshu in surprise, his eyes showed a thoughtful meaning, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The Zhao Song Inner Court, represented by Tong Guan, sent congratulatory gifts to the Shenxiao faction, which was enough to surprise the heroes of the rivers and lakes.

The arrival of Helian Tieshu made many heroes in the rivers and lakes sigh with emotion.

"I can't imagine that even Ye Zhenren even knows the concubine of Xixia."

However, before they could sigh a little, another voice came from outside the Dao Courtyard.

"The little monk Gu Mozhi was ordered by the Queen Mother of Tubo to come to congratulate Shenxiao on the joy of sending Ye Zhenren to open the mountain."

"Yeluxi under the command of the king of the northern courtyard of Liao, Yeluyin was ordered by the king of the northern courtyard to congratulate Shenxiao on the joy of sending Ye Zhenren to open the mountain."

As soon as the voice fell, I saw two passers-by walking side by side from the gate of the Taoist courtyard and entering the square.

Gu Mozhi was followed by two monks, and his face was full of energy, but the moment he saw Ye Qianqiu, his face was a little unpleasant.

However, he still walked to the square, bowed to Ye Qianqiu and held his hand and said: "The little monk Gu Mozhi is ordered by my Empress Dowager of the Tubo Kingdom to congratulate Ye Zhenren on opening the mountain and establishing a faction. ”

On the side, the two Khitans also saluted Ye Qianqiu and said, "Yeluxi, Yeluyin, on the order of the king of the North Courtyard, came to congratulate Ye Zhenren on the joy of opening the mountain." ”

The two spoke very slippery Chinese, looked respectful, and sent congratulatory gifts.

The heroes in the field were completely confused, and they now had only one doubt in their hearts.

What is the origin of Ye Zhenren, who can actually make Zhao Song, Western Xia, Tubo, Liao, and Dali all send congratulatory gifts.

This is not something that ordinary people can do, where is this like a sect on the rivers and lakes to open a mountain, which sect on the rivers and lakes can open a mountain and establish a faction that can make the five countries come to make it?

It's also incredible.
