Chapter 111: The Dead
Qiu Ping saw Chen Yu, and also saw a young man sitting next to Chen Yu, as well as an old man with a pale face who couldn't tell his age.
Qiu Ping was stunned, the movements in his hands did not stop, and he skillfully cut the miscellaneous with one hand.
While saying to the young man who was helping, "Thirteen, help your grandmother into the room to rest first, and I'll do the things in the store." ”
The young man responded, "I know my father, and I'll come out to help you later." ”
Then he put down the work in his hand, cleaned his hands and helped the old man through the back door of the shop into a small courtyard.
Seeing that his son was helping his mother to the backyard, Qiu Ping came to the table of Zhang Zheng and the others with mutton soup and haggis.
After putting the mutton soup and haggis in front of Zhang Zheng, he turned to look at the street.
Seeing that there was no one on the street, he closed the door of the shop.
Plug in the deadbolt and light another oil lamp.
Only then did he come to Zhang Zheng and knelt down on one knee and whispered: "Subordinate Qiu Ping, I have seen Shaolangjun." ”
Zhang Zheng watched Qiu Ping finish these things, picked up the spoon and drank a sip of the hot mutton soup, and suddenly felt that the tip of his tongue was extremely delicious.
I couldn't help but praise: "Not bad." ”
Then he stretched out his chopsticks and put a chopstick haggis in his mouth.
There is no trace of organ taste and mutton smell, only a simple salt flavor mixed with the aroma of meat.
Even Zhang Zheng, who had a very mouthful, couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
After Zhang Zheng drank the mutton soup, ate the haggis, and wiped his mouth.
It was as if I had just seen Qiu Ping, the shopkeeper kneeling on one knee and bowing his head.
He said softly, "Get up and sit." ”
"Yes."
Qiu Ping did not have any dissatisfaction with Zhang Zheng's neglect, and when he heard this, he responded and sat next to Chen Yu.
Zhang Zheng was looking at Qiu Ping, and Qiu Ping was also looking at Zhang Zheng.
No one could have imagined that the owner of the good old man Qiu Ji mutton soup shop turned out to be the dead man of the Zou Guo Mansion.
That's right, it's the dead.
Even the dead soldiers with a very high status in the Zou State Mansion.
Because according to Chen Yu, Qiu Ping's subordinates can command at least more than 200 dead soldiers in the mansion.
Although Zhang Zheng guessed that there must be a dead soldier in his family, he had never seen it before, and today was the first time he had seen a dead soldier in his family.
The name Qiu Ping is also the first time I heard Chen Yu talk about it today.
The Guogong Mansion naturally has its own heritage.
The dead soldiers are different from Liu San and others, although Liu San and others can be regarded as one of the foundations of the house, but they are retired veterans after all.
Loyal to Zhang Gongjin, but more loyal to Emperor Li Shimin.
The dead soldiers were completely different, they were simply loyal to the Zou State Mansion.
As long as they hold the token, even if Zhang Zheng asks them to assassinate the emperor, they will not hesitate to do it.
There is another name for a dead man, called a retainer, as the name suggests, a courtier who is loyal to a certain family.
But the retainer is not necessarily a dead man, and it may be a person with a high level of attainment in a certain aspect who is enshrined by a certain family and becomes a retainer of a certain family.
This kind of retainers are similar to the disciples raised by the princes, ministers, scholars and doctors during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
In a word, a dead man must be a retainer, but a retainer is not necessarily a dead man, but may also be a guest and worship.
"Qiu Ping."
Zhang Zheng shouted softly.
"The subordinates are here."
Qiu Ping, who was sitting on the side, heard Zhang Zheng's voice and subconsciously responded.
"Something Chen Yu has already given to you, what do I want?"
Zhang Zheng asked seemingly casually, but his eyes kept staring at Qiu Ping, observing his every move.
"Back to Shaolangjun, at present, his subordinates have preliminarily ascertained that those people are indeed some people who are unwilling to be lonely and pretentious, and they are the same as Shaolangjun's thoughts.
The things made by Shao Langjun have been taken away by those people.
It's just that those people are too cunning, and every time their subordinates find out where they are stationed, they will inevitably go to the empty building when they go to investigate.
So far, the subordinates have not been able to find out where their real nest is. ”
Speaking of the back, Qiu Ping's face showed a look of shame.
Suddenly, he knelt on one knee again, hugged his fist at Zhang Zheng and said: "My subordinates are not doing things well, please punish Shaolangjun." ”
Zhang Zheng sat on the main seat and muttered to himself:
"Hehe, it's really them, now that the world is peaceful, do you want to come out and do something again?"
Then he closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the table.
said to Qiu Ping: "Get up, don't blame you, the cunning rabbit still has three holes, not to mention those people, if you let you find it out so easily, Your Majesty will not let me come." ”
"Subordinates, ashamed."
Qiu Ping showed embarrassment, said a word, and then stood up.
"Okay, since it's sure to be those people, the next thing will be easy, send all the information in your hand to Jinyang Palace, and you don't have to worry about the next thing."
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
Qiu Ping is a dead soldier of the Zou State Mansion, but it is not appropriate to show up too much on these things.
Although Li Shimin may not know about the fact that each family raises the dead.
But it's one thing to know that you are raising dead soldiers, and there are not many dead soldiers in anyone's house.
It's another thing if you raise it and release it to jump up and down.
Now that they have found out these things, it is only right for them to return to silence.
How to deal with those people next, Zhang Zheng also faintly had a belly case.
Getting the desired result, Zhang Zheng stood up and prepared to leave.
Chen Yu consciously helped Zhang Zheng open the door of the shop, just as Zhang Zheng was about to walk out of the door.
Qiu Ping suddenly said: "Shao Langjun, the son of his subordinates is also involved in this matter, is it ......?"
Without waiting for Qiu Ping to finish speaking, Zhang Zheng raised his hand to interrupt his words, turned his back to Qiu Ping and said, "Then let your son send it, I will wait for him in Jinyang Palace." ”
After listening to Zhang Zheng's words, Qiu Ping was overjoyed, and suddenly bowed to Zhang Zheng's back.
……
Zhang Zheng turned his back to Qiu Ping, how could he not know Qiu Ping's thoughts.
With an elusive smile on his face, he strode out.
Out of Qingniufang, someone gradually merged into the team behind Zhang Zheng.
After walking out of the road, there were more than 100 people behind Zhang Zheng, who were the guards of the Zou Guogong Mansion who came to Jinyang with Chen Yu first.
There are more than 200 guards who followed Zhang Zheng to Jinyang from the Guogong Mansion, and more than 100 people are still in the Qincha team led by Duan Heng, and they have not yet arrived in Jinyang.
The two soldiers of the Zhichong Mansion were in the hands of Li Chengqian and Wei Zheng respectively.
Originally, according to Li Shimin's original intention, these two soldiers of the Zhichong Mansion were used by Zhang Zheng to humanely destroy those people.
The clans in the Jinyang Palace, as well as the officials of the Bingzhou Assassin Mansion, did not have the determination and courage to resist Li Shimin at all.
There is no need for the army to deal with them.
Wei Zheng already has all the evidence in his hands, and he is arresting people according to the map.
