Chapter 509: Key Person

In the past few days, the situation in the capital has been calm and tense, and Fanning's family has also temporarily moved to Zhu Yuanfeng's mansion and is closely protected.

Fan Ning lived in the Shenwu Army barracks, temporarily handing over the affairs of the court to Wen Yanbo and Han Jiang, in fact, after the deterioration of Tianzi's condition, the affairs of the entire court basically stopped.

All the officials were nervously waiting for the last moment to come.

The emperor's heir, Zhao Ji, also stopped studying and was protected in the Shenwu Army barracks.

The Shenwu Army barracks are located in the north of the East Palace, it is a small barracks covering an area of 200 acres, there is basically no training ground, the barracks are built with bricks and tiles, a row of barracks can live about 1,000 people, there are more than 30 rows of barracks, in addition to the soldiers' barracks, there are warehouses and armories and the commander's barracks.

This is only the temporary residence of 20,000 Shenwu Army, and the official barracks of Shenwu Army are on the bank of Jinming Pond outside Dongcheng.

Fanning returned to the barracks at dusk, and Zhu Long brought him the latest news.

"According to our surveillance information, Zhang Sheng, Zhao Lian, Zhang Husheng, Zhang Jinding, and Jiang Yuan arrived at Zhang Yaozuo's Xicheng Manor outside the city almost at the same time yesterday afternoon, and they stayed in the manor overnight until noon today."

"Where's Zhang Yaozuo?"

"Zhang Yaozuo is still in the manor, in addition, the number of Zhuang Ding who came from all over the country has reached about 5,000, officials, do we want to do it in advance and pull out this manor?"

Fan Ning shook his head, "After all, the Son of Heaven gave him the Danshu Iron Coupon, and now the Son of Heaven is still here, if he does it now, it will seriously damage the authority of the Son of Heaven, and the imperial heir will also allow it, there are only two possibilities, either they will do it first, or wait for the Son of Heaven to pass away." ”

"The lowly officials understood, but the lowly officials felt that it would be better to know their detailed plans in advance."

Fan Ning looked at the list and said with a smile: "These five people don't seem to be people who betray Zhang Yaozuo easily. ”

Zhu Long said with a smile: "If you are a person, you have a weakness, and you have discovered a person's weakness and made a deployment." ”

"You mean the guy who makes the brothel his home?"

"That's him! Through him, I can get the content of Zhang Yaozuo's secret discussion last night. ”

Zhu Long then reported his detailed plan to Fanning, "You can give it a try!" Fanning readily agreed to Zhu Long's plan.

As soon as night fell, the lights were bright in front of the West Street Caidie Building, several bewitching prostitutes were soliciting customers at the door, the grade of the Caidie Building in the capital could only be regarded as medium, but even if it was a medium brothel, once indulged in it, even if the family had thousands of family wealth, it could not withstand the squandering of the gold cave.

Zhang Daquan is such a young man, in fact, he is far from having a lot of money, but he has a relatively rich brother-in-law, but he has completely indulged in the gentle township of Caidielou.

He is the young man that Fanning refers to as a home in brothels.

Zhang Daquan has been dead since his parents, but he has a rather beautiful sister, his sister is Jiang Yuan's concubine, Zhang Yaozuo's niece is very strong, and the concubine is not allowed to enter the house, Jiang Yuan had to raise her outside, three years ago, she gave birth to a son to Jiang Yuan.

Zhang Daquan turned around a few times in front of the Caidie Tower, it was really itching, he touched the empty pocket, turned around and ran away.

In the Qingfeng Teahouse, Zhang Daquan said to Zhu Long with a hippie smile: "Just this time, the eldest brother will lend me another fifty taels of silver, guarantee"

"Fart!"

Zhu Long scolded: "Every time it's a guarantee, you calculate it yourself, how much money do you owe me?" ”

Zhang Daquan scratched his head, "I really haven't counted." ”

"It's already five hundred taels, you should pay it back."

Zhang Daquan has never thought about paying back, although he is lustful, he is not stupid, he knows that the other party is approaching him for his brother-in-law, but it doesn't matter, as long as the other party gives him money to play with women, he can even sell it.

Zhu Long also knew him very well, so he also told him some things clearly.

"Brother Zhu, don't you just want to inquire about the news? You give me the money, I give you the news, we are a deal, how can you make me pay back? ”

"Humph! Trade? Only I give you money, but where is your news? ”

"Didn't you ask?"

Zhu Long nodded, took out ten ingots of gold from his pocket, and put them on the table, "This is one hundred taels of gold, worth one thousand taels of silver, I ask you to buy a message, the news is given to me, you take the gold, and the previous debts will be written off." ”

Zhang Daquan looked at Huang Chengcheng's gold, 'Goodong! He swallowed his spit, and his eyes were red.

"What news do you want?" Zhang Daquan asked in a hoarse voice.

"Come here!"

Zhu Long whispered a few words to him, and said with a smile: "Just this news, give me news tonight, this hundred gold belongs to you!" ”

"Will my sister be in danger then?"

"Your sister won't be in danger, on the contrary, she'll make a lot of money, right?"

Zhang Daquan is right when he thinks about it, Jiang Yuan has saved at least tens of thousands of yuan in his sister, and there is a three-acre house, as soon as Jiang Yuan dies, won't the money and the house belong to his sister?

"Good! We're sure of it. ”

Zhang Daquan hurried back to the eldest sister's house, Zhang Daquan's sister was called Zhang Feng, who was originally a courtesan in Alum Tower, but was redeemed by Jiang Yuan and became Jiang Yuan's concubine.

As soon as Zhang Daquan entered the house, he was startled when he saw his sister packing up his things, "Where is my sister going?" ”

"Your brother-in-law came over in the afternoon and asked me to go back to my hometown to avoid it first, saying that there would be a military disaster in the capital in the next two days."

Zhang Daquan was suddenly anxious, his brother-in-law had already come, and he hurriedly said, "Will that brother-in-law come again?" ”

"He'll be here tomorrow morning to see me off, Daquan, what's wrong?"

Zhang Daquan breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What if something happens to my brother-in-law, what about the money and the house?" ”

"How do you speak?" Zhang Feng glared at his brother fiercely.

"I'm just afraid that in case, you also know that tigress won't let you go."

Zhang Feng was silent for a moment and said, "Your brother-in-law has already given me the voucher for withdrawing money, and the house and the title deed are all in my name." ”

"Sister, my brother-in-law said that there was a military disaster, when is it?"

"What are you asking for?"

"I'm going to hide too! Do you want your brother to die in the chaos? ”

"You know, just come with me."

"Sister, I've been doing a business recently, and everyone has given me a deposit."

Zhang Daquan took out an ingot of ten taels of gold, "This is the deposit, do a wine business, I can earn a hundred taels of gold, that is, it will be delivered tomorrow, you have to tell me, where, when?" I've got to get out of the way! ”

Zhang Feng saw that his brother had actually changed his ways and turned to business, and he was also happy in his heart, so he said: "Your brother-in-law said that it should have nothing to do with you over there in the imperial city, the specific time seems to be at night, in the middle of the night!" ”

"What time is midnight?"

"How do I know, your brother-in-law said it was the middle of the night, and said that he was going to do something big in the middle of the night, and he drank a few more glasses, otherwise he wouldn't have said it."

"Sister, I know, I'll arrange it, you can clean it up quickly! Sister, don't tell my brother-in-law I've been here. ”

"When did I say you in front of him? At the mention of you, he loses his temper, you are a little angry, and I also have a little face. ”

Zhang Daquan didn't want to listen to his sister's noise anymore, so he turned around and ran away.

After listening to Zhu Long's report, Fan Ning nodded and said, "Tomorrow night in the middle of the night, that is the third watch, Jiang Yuan is the key person, it is necessary to take him down tomorrow night." ”

"Officials, you can use Zhang Daquan to lure him out."

Fan Ning smiled slightly, "As soon as the city gate is closed tomorrow night, Zhang Yaozuo will lose contact with the city, and he will do it after closing the city gate!" ”

"Obey!"

Zhu Long hurriedly went, and at this time, Zhao Ji, who was sitting on the side, said: "Zhan Shi, what about Zhang Husheng's Flying Leopard Army?" ”

Fan Ning said with a smile: "Your Highness, the task of Zhang Husheng's Flying Leopard Army must be to block the Shenwu Army, but the Flying Leopard Army is stationed outside the city, and he must wait for Jiang Yuan to open the city gate for him, as long as we take Jiang Yuan down, all Zhang Yaozuo's plans will be blocked, so Weichen said that Jiang Yuan is the key to connecting the previous and the next, and if Jiang Yuan is taken, Zhang Yaozuo's plan will be broken." ”

Zhao Ji sighed, "Zhan Shi, let me stay with the imperial grandfather!" He might want to see me. ”

"That's what I want the heir to do!"

Zhao Ji was stunned, "I don't understand?" ”

Fanning stepped forward and whispered, "We need a talisman to transfer the forbidden army outside the city!" ”

"But the talisman and the jade seal are all with the emperor's grandfather."

Fanning shook his head, "Now that the jade seal and the talisman are in the hands of your imperial grandmother, you'd better get the talisman and the gold medal for troop transfer." ”

Zhao Ji also knew that the situation was tense, so he nodded, "I will tell the imperial grandmother and ask him to give me the gold medal and talisman, but who does Zhan Shi plan to send to transfer troops?" ”

Fan Ning said: "Thinking about it, there is only Han Xianggong, so I can only ask him." ”

Zhao Ji nodded, he didn't delay any longer, and immediately got up and left.

Fan Ning took a few more steps, and he felt the need to have a good talk with Han Qi.
