Although it has been said that after so many years, Zhu Ji has changed his appearance, is more mature, and has the style of a general, but his face shape has not changed, and if you look closely, you can still see it.

It's just that no one would have thought that he was just a battalion commander at the beginning, and now he has become the first deputy minister of the military department of the Dragon Empire, and has become a big man with millions of military power.

"Sir, please." Pang Ji did not name Ji Zhu's identity in public, but called Mr. enthusiastically.

"Pang Xianggong, please." The person who came was Ji Zhu, the first person in the Dragon Emperor ***, second only to Su Shi.

The two of them walked into the Pang Mansion in full view of everyone, and then the middle door was closed again, and the people around them were stunned.

When Ji Zhu came just now, many people saw it, but everyone didn't know him, so they didn't pay much attention to it. Although they saw that he also sent a greeting post, and whispered a few words to the housekeeper Pang, everyone didn't take it seriously.

There are a lot of people who send money to Pang Yong, just to meet Pang Ji, but they can't do it, I really think it's just a few whispers.

Many people still laughed at Ji Zhu in their hearts at the time, thinking that this was probably a businessman, or a businessman who couldn't see the situation clearly. But no one expected that Pang Ji would really appear soon, and he would open the door to greet him.

Opening the middle door, in that era, was exquisite, unless it was a character who was stronger than the master, it was impossible for the master to do this, it was not a question of money or not, but a matter of identity.

From this point of view alone, the identity of this stranger is not simple. For a while, these people waiting to meet outside began to talk about what the true identity of this Jizhu was.

In the Pang Mansion, Pang Ji had already welcomed Ji Zhu into the main hall, and after the surrounding people had withdrawn, leaving only the butler's henchman Pang Yong, Pang Ji immediately said: "Minister Ji, you have come so openly, I am afraid that the matter will soon be known to King Pu, and no one knows what he will do next."

did not call Mr. Zhu, but directly called Minister Ji, which is Pang Ji's statement that he already knows Ji Zhu's true identity.

"Hehe, Pang Xianggong is really a smart person, it seems that our Majesty's decision is not wrong." Ji Zhu is also very generous, everyone knows his identity, he is not hiding, and directly admits his identity.

"Oh, what did Your Majesty say about the guilty minister?" Pang Ji was very smart, and as soon as he heard Ji Zhu talk about Su Shi, he beat the snake and said it on the stick.

Ji Zhu also smiled and said, "Your Majesty said, Pang Xianggong is a smart person, and he is also a person who knows the times, the more he should know what to do and what kind of right choice to make at such a time."

It seems that neither of them said anything, but the meaning of these words is too great, and it will be clear for a while. But Pang Ji heard it clearly and understood.

He knew very well that this was an opportunity for him, and he had to seize it.

"Vice Minister Ji smiled, the old minister is not very smart, otherwise he would not be in today's situation. However, if His Majesty is willing to give the criminal a chance, the criminal will try to seize it, but if there is something that needs to be done, please make it clear."

Pang Ji expressed his position, and even apologized for some of his past practices, all of which Ji Zhu heard very clearly, and he understood even more that this time he came to see Pang Ji on the order of Su Shi, and it was really not wrong.

Bianliang City, Su Shi must be taken.

But whether it is a dilapidated and chaotic Bianliang City or a prosperous and orderly Bianliang City is completely different.

Obviously, Su Shi wanted the latter. Now that the Dragon Empire is full of wings and the morale of the army is very strong, it is precisely when he should take this opportunity to expand the territory of the Dragon Empire and lay more ground for the Han people in later generations, he really does not want to be distracted to build a destroyed capital of the Song Dynasty.

If you can take Bianliang City at the lowest cost, of course, it is what Su Shi expects to see. For this reason, Ji Zhu came as Su Shi's plenipotentiary envoy.

As Jizhu, he is naturally qualified to be this envoy. And after Ji Zhu arrived in Bianliang City, the first thing he did was to come to see Pang Ji.

Pang Ji is an old minister, and he has served as the prince and the prince, and the official residence is a good product, not to mention that he has a strong influence in the court, and he is also the most clear about the situation here. If he is willing to help Su Shi do things, it will greatly facilitate the task of peacefully liberating Bianliang City.

And Ji Zhu was also recommended to Su Shi by Pang, no matter what kind of intentions he had at that time, the fact had already been created, which was more conducive to promoting the meeting between the two. At least the appearance of Ji Zhu can let Pang Ji know that Su Shi has no intention of dealing with him. Otherwise, even if Ji Zhu appeared, he would not use the previous Zhu Ji's name.

Sure enough, when Ji Zhu finished expressing Su Shi's attitude that he needed Pang Ji, he decisively agreed, and opened his mouth to open a criminal minister and shut up a criminal minister, which was a repentance, and it was also a temptation.

"Pang Xianggong, you don't have to call yourself a criminal minister, our majesty has no intention of punishing you, otherwise, it wouldn't be me who came here alone, but the dragon army surrounded this place."

Ji Zhu opened his mouth, dispelling the concerns in Pang Ji's heart.

"Thank you, thank you." Pang Ji is not hypocritical, everyone says that he is innocent, if he continues to talk about this matter, it will inevitably annoy people, and then good things can be played by himself.

"Don't be so polite, you'll be your own people from now on." Ji Zhu also laughed and smiled, expressing enough kindness.

"Yes, it's all your own people, your own people. Okay, then ask Deputy Chief Ji to assign tasks to the ministers. By the way, I'm afraid that your arrival will soon be known to those who are interested, and it will be fine, right?" Pang Ji thought of the question he had just asked, and said with some concern.

"My safety, although Pang Xianggong can rest assured, unless someone wants to be buried with Bianliang City, otherwise, even if he knows my identity, he will not dare to act rashly. Then again, even if he is really crazy and wants to do something to me, it won't be so easy to take my life, is it true that our Dragon Empire is unprepared in Bianliang City, and it can't be done without military strength?"

When Ji Zhu said these words, his face was full of confidence.

For an important person like Ji Zhu, his safety is naturally the top priority, and since he dares to come to Bianliang City, the safety issue has long been considered. At this point, he has confidence in the Dragon Empire, and he also has confidence in the Dragon Hidden Department that has been hiding in the shadows.

Seeing Ji Zhu's indifference and self-confidence, Pang Ji was also infected, this is the real style of a general.

This is the true demeanor of a strong man.

With such a person, it will be very enjoyable to do things in the future. Thinking of this, Pang Ji was a little impatient, "Deputy Chief Ji, what does Your Majesty need the old minister to do, please give an order."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, in fact, His Majesty's request is not complicated, what he needs is a peaceful and orderly Bianliang City..."

Outside the Pang Mansion, less than half an hour after Ji Zhu entered, the gate opened again.

Although it was not the middle door that opened, the side door began to welcome guests as soon as it opened.

Pang Ji didn't have confidence in his heart before, and he didn't even know where he was going, so how did he meet people, and what did he say when he saw people?

Now it's different, after seeing Ji Zhu and receiving the task, he is full of confidence this time. He knows what to do and what to say when he meets people, so what is there to hesitate about?

The changes that took place here in Pang Mansion were indeed quickly reported to King Pu Zhao Yunrang.

Knowing that Pang Ji actually opened the middle door to welcome guests at such a time, Zhao Yunrang immediately came to his senses, looked at the person who reported the news and asked, "Who went in, can you see clearly?"

"I see it clearly, but this minister doesn't know it." The courtier who came to report shook his head.

"Do you think it could be Su Shi?" Zhao Yunrang asked with a hint of hope.

"No, absolutely not. There is a big difference in height, body shape and age." The courtier shook his head and replied in a tone of great certainty.

Hearing that it was confirmed that it was not Su Shi, Zhao Yunrang was disappointed for a while.

With his current position, Su Shi can still attract his attention and have enough attraction

。

If the person who came was really Su Shi, then no matter what kind of preparations the Dragon Empire would have, he would have to rush into the Pang Mansion with all his strength to arrest people, even if it was worth the heavy losses for this. As long as he captures Su Shi alive, then he has the possibility of reversing the tables.

But in addition, even if you know that the other party is an important person in the Dragon Empire, it is useless to catch it. On the contrary, doing so will also anger Su Shi, once Bianliang City is captured, I am afraid that he may not even be able to save his life.

For the sake of an inconsequential person, taking his own life, Zhao Yunrang would not do such a deal.

"Then keep an eye on the other party first and see what he and Pang Ji are going to do. And again, no one shall strike against it without the command of the king." For fear that the people below would act rashly and cause *** annoyance, Zhao Yunrang gave such a sentence at the end.

Judging from this point alone, Zhao Yunrang has actually been cowardly.

He knew what he had done, and he knew that he had always been at odds with Su Shi, and if he didn't get it right, the Dragon Army entered Bianliang City, and that was his death.

On the contrary, if he doesn't do anything, it is equivalent to not giving Su Shi an excuse to kill himself. How to say that he is also the king of Pu of the Zhao Song Dynasty, the biological father of the current official family, plus his identity as a Han Chinese, Su Shi cannot kill himself without reason, otherwise, it may attract the fear of others, presumably this is not something that a wise man wants to see.

It can be said that with the acquiescence of Zhao Yunrang, Pang Ji's side became more unscrupulous in doing things.
