Chapter 230, Princess Iron Mirror

Princess Tiejing is the most favored of many princesses, and her authority is also the highest. As soon as she said that, it was easy to let the guards in Princess Haijing's mansion fall to the ground. Princess Haijing also seemed to be awakened by her sister's female power, she glanced at Princess Tiejing, and whispered: "Second sister, I'm fine......"

Princess Tiejing glared at her sister, "You're still so soft-hearted...... Princess Tiejing looked at the guards and said coldly: "Next time, you all have to die, including your people." Throwing down these words, Princess Tiejing asked Princess Haijing to return to the mansion with her. The imperial doctor, who was already waiting in the house, immediately helped Princess Haijing to diagnose and treat.

"Princess Haijing was infected with some wind chills, and there are many bruises on her body......" The imperial doctor gave a conclusion after the examination. Princess Haijing was sure that she was infected with the wind and cold, and as for the multiple bruises on her body, she was hit in the carriage. After the imperial doctor helped Princess Haijing deal with her bruises, he went down to prescribe medicine to her. Princess Haijing's small body was lying on the bed, staring at the top of the bed in a daze.

"Fourth sister, what are you thinking? Are you wondering who did it to you? Princess Tiejing's face turned pale and said, "My sister has already sent someone to check, it's Zhegu and Xiao Taixing." They are not satisfied with the queen mother's treatment of them, so they secretly attack you. I have sent someone to inform the queen mother, and I will definitely let them walk around without eating......"

"Sister, I feel weird in my heart......" Princess Tiejing is depicting the scene of Zhegu and Xiao Taixing being disposed of after they are caught. Suddenly heard Princess Haijing's words, and was slightly stunned. She sat on the edge of Princess Haijing's bed and said in a low voice, "What's weird? ”

Princess Haijing frowned and tried to recall: "That's it...... You will feel especially at ease when you have someone by your side...... But when he leaves, you're going to have a hard time......" Princess Tiejing looked at her twelve-year-old sister in amazement. "Who have you met? In what place? What is the identity of the other party? ”

As soon as Princess Tiejing spoke, there were three questions. Princess Haijing was taken aback when she heard this, she had never seen Princess Tiejing so out of shape. It was like there were two villains fighting in her head, and she didn't know whether to say it or not. Princess Tiejing's face turned blue and glared at Princess Haijing.

Princess Haijing said timidly: "That's it...... I was so scared after the horses were frightened today...... Someone saved me...... I felt warm around him...... Didn't want to leave him......"

Princess Tiejing squinted her eyes and said in a deep voice, "Who is he?" What's his name? Princess Haijing quietly glanced at Princess Tiejing, and whispered: "He said his name is Yang Ping......" "Yang Ping? Princess Tiejing stood up abruptly as if she had been stepped on by her tail, and exclaimed, "His name is Yang Ping? Is he a Song man? Princess Haijing blinked her big eyes and whispered, "It should be a Song person...... Because he doesn't have the smell of our Liao people. ”

Princess Tiejing stared at Princess Haijing in a daze, and roared: "Does he still have a name, called Yang Peng?" Princess Haijing was startled and whispered, "Sister, you scared me." He only said that his name was Yang Ping, and by the time I wanted to ask again, he was gone......"

"Sister, do you know him?" looked at Princess Haijing's expectant eyes. Princess Tiejing hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't know, it should be my sister who wants to be bad, they are definitely not alone." You rest first, and my sister will go out for a while......" Princess Tiejing left Princess Haijing's bedroom with a complicated expression. Princess Haijing stared at the gauze tent and murmured, "Yang Ping...... Yang Peng...... "......

Outside Princess Haijing's mansion. As soon as Princess Tiejing left the mansion, she threw herself on the head of the guards in her mansion at a glance. Princess Tiejing looked at the face of the leader of her guards, and her expression became even more complicated. "You go to the main palace to drive, this palace has something to ask you." Princess Tiejing was the first to get into the carriage, and the head of the guards in her palace hesitated for a moment and also stepped into the carriage. As soon as the leader of the guards stepped into the carriage, Princess Iron Mirror slipped into his arms.

"Shiro......" The leader of the guards hesitated, but still held Princess Tiejing in his arms. Wronged again? Do you want me to help you? "Who is this guard leader who was called Shiro by Princess Tiejing, who is it if it is not Yang Si? It's hard to imagine that a princess who once chased Yang Peng like chasing stars is lying in Yang Si's arms at this moment.

The reason why it has become like this is purely by providence. Once upon a time, Princess Tiejing, who discovered Yang Si's identity, wanted to use Yang Si's identity to fish out Yang Peng. Unexpectedly, under the slow contact with Yang Si, they fell in love for a long time. When Fan Long plundered the two capitals of Liao, there was chaos in Shangjing. Yang Si relied on his ability to repeatedly help Princess Tiejing out of the siege.

Yang Si was like peeling an onion, peeling off Princess Tiejing's heart layer by layer. And Princess Tiejing often comforts Yang Si, who is sad alone. After coming and going, the two fell in love with each other. Therefore, when Princess Tiejing heard the word Yang Ping, she did not feel surprised, but felt panic and fear.

She sensed the danger approaching, and she felt that her loved one was gradually moving away from her. Although Yang Ping's identity has not yet been determined, she already feels the crisis. She wanted to ask Yang Si's mind as soon as possible, but when she lay in Yang Si's arms, she couldn't open her mouth.

She's selfish, she's afraid. She was afraid that if she said it, Yang Si would leave her. She didn't dare to gamble, she didn't dare to bet that Yang Si's feelings for her were heavier than family affection. "It's nothing, it's just that when I see that the fourth sister is so small, I will be hurt by those ill-intentioned people, and I feel sad."

Princess Tiejing chose to escape and chose to lie. When Yang Si heard Princess Tiejing's words, he was stunned and sighed: "Sometimes, being a princess may not be as happy as ordinary people. If you are worried about the safety of Princess Haijing, you might as well take her to your house to live. ”

"No way!" Princess Iron Mirror decisively refused. She was afraid that Princess Haijing would leak her mouth. Seeing Yang Si's eyes looking at her strangely, Princess Tiejing hurriedly explained: "The fourth sister was not lightly frightened this time, and the imperial doctor said that she needed to recuperate. She was also accustomed to living in her own mansion, and hastily moved to my mansion for fear that it would be detrimental to her condition. ”

Yang Si nodded, believing Princess Tiejing's words. Princess Tiejing and Yang Si stayed warm for a while, and then let people drive the carriage back to the house. After returning to the mansion, Princess Tiejing asked Yang Si to help her train the guards in the mansion, and she took the maid back to the bedroom herself.

As soon as she entered the bedroom, Princess Tiejing's face changed suddenly, and she coldly ordered the maid, "You go and order Shangjing Mansion Yin, and let him take people to pay close attention to the Song people who have recently entered the city." found that the Song people related to Yang Zi blasted out of the capital to the palace. Then go and mobilize a guard for the main palace, let them guard the vicinity, and once they find a suspicious Song person, take it immediately. ”

The maid was stunned and asked Princess Tiejing, "Princess, wouldn't it be too domineering to do this?" It is very likely that it will provoke other Khitan tribes......"

"Humph!" Princess Tiejing snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, the queen mother and Uncle Yelu are killing people, and whoever jumps out will let them die." "Now, Princess Tiejing can't care so much. Princess Tiejing is a person who dares to love and hate. Since he fell in love with Yang Si, he would never let Yang Si be taken away by others. Even if that person is Yang Si's own brother. ……

Faced with the net laid by Princess Tiejing, Yang Peng was completely unaware. At this moment, he had just entered the city. Entering the Shangjing City of Liao, Yang Peng had a feeling of entering Bianjing City. Although it is winter, Shangjing is still bustling. Its prosperity is not weaker than that of Bianjing.

It's just that compared with the bookish atmosphere of Bianjing City, Shangjing City has a more barbaric atmosphere. Even those Liao people, dressed in the costumes of the Song people, could not hide the barbaric atmosphere on their bodies. Not far from Yang Peng, Yang Peng saw two Liao people dressed as scholars, chanting well-known poems in Bianjing City at the top of their voices. It's just that these two Liao people are obviously not highly educated, and many poems are pieced together and chanted, and there is no sense of beauty at all.

However, there are many Liao little girls who frequently look sideways. Except, of course, for the Liao. Yang Peng also saw many Song people, some of them hung the waist cards of the officials of the Liao court, and some followed the Liao people while disdainful and stinky feet. In short, the Song people in the Shangjing city of Liao can be roughly divided into two categories.

One is the reader. The other type is coolies. Yang Peng was wrapped in a wide bear skin with a knife hanging from his waist, and looked more like a Liao person. After walking half a circle in the city, Yang Peng arrived at the money store in Shangjing. Compared with the money store in Xijing City, the money store in Shangjing City opened earlier.

However, the footprint is not large. There are only about 30 acres of land. The money shop in Shangjing City is very prosperous, and the merchants from all over the world who gather in Shangjing City like to stay in the money store the most. Therefore, the money bank in Shangjing is more like a chamber of commerce money bank. Moreover, in the money store in Shangjing, there is also a restaurant inn.

The shopkeeper in charge of the money store in Shangjing is also a wonderful person, and he basically uses the 30 acres of land in Shangjing to the extreme. When Yang Peng arrived at the door of the money store, the shopkeeper of the money store led a group of men and was already waiting at the door of the money store. Yang Peng's bear skin is very conspicuous.

Even in Liao, a complete black bear skin like Yang Peng's body is very rare. The shopkeeper of the money bank is named Shen Peng, who is in his fifties and is a very discerning person.

When Shen Peng saw Yang Peng, he hurriedly walked out of the door of the money store, bowed down and said, "Old servant Shen Peng, I have seen the city lord." "Shen Peng used to be the Yang family's bookkeeper, and was later transferred to Tianjing New Town. Now, it has become a big treasurer in the town. The group of guys who followed behind Shen Peng all saluted Yang Peng, "I've seen the young master." ”

The guys here are almost all Jinyiwei's people. In addition to their daily work, they also had to collect intelligence on the Liao State in private. This is also one of the most concentrated intelligence departments of Jinyiwei outside of Bianjing City. The shopkeeper of Qian Xing, although he is not a big man in Liao, is also a person who can talk to big people.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper respectfully saluted a person. The guests in the money store all subconsciously looked over. Almost all businessmen want to remember Yang Peng's figure. Yang Peng waved his hand and said softly: "It's all your own people, you don't need so many courtesies." Let's get busy. ”

"Yes." The brocade guards who pretended to be buddies quickly dispersed and went to get busy. Only Shen Peng was left alone to serve by Yang Peng's side. Yang Peng's trip was very low-key, he didn't want to be recognized, so he didn't stay in the money store for long, so he asked Shen Peng to take him to the back hall.

Shen Peng hunched his waist, followed Yang Peng's side, and said softly: "City Lord, you must be very tired after a long journey. The old servant had already ordered food and hot water to be prepared. You wash up and eat first. ”

Yang Peng nodded lightly and said, "It's okay." Although Shen Peng is not the innermost servant of Tianjing New Town, he knows some of Yang Peng's hobbies. Therefore, when Yang Peng was taking a bath, Shen Peng did not send someone to serve. It's just that people can prepare hot water for Yang Peng at any time, so that Yang Peng can add water. After washing, Yang Peng changed into a loose shirt and entered the dining room.

The fire dragon in the dining room is burning vigorously. Therefore, Yang Peng did not feel cold after entering the dining room. The meals on the table were very special. In the middle is a stewed bear's paw. The rest, basically, is some meat, and two stir-fries.

Shen Peng waited until Yang Peng sat down, and said with a little embarrassment: "The good cooks who cook in the capital are all in the palace, or they are controlled by dignitaries and nobles...... Yang Peng waved his hand, interrupted Shen Peng's words, and said with a smile: "It's all your own people, just eat two bites." You don't need to prepare a lot of good dishes. If I really want to eat good food, I don't need other chefs. ”

Yang Peng said this with extreme confidence. Shen Peng said guiltily: "City Lord, you finally came here, the old servant just wants you to taste all the delicacies of this Liao country, ......" Yang Peng waved his hand and said, "Sit down and eat together." Shen Peng said in fear: "Then how dare you ......" Shen Peng can be regarded as knowing Yang Peng's identity.

He, the shopkeeper of the money bank, looks beautiful, but compared with Yang Peng, he is just a subordinate after all. Yang Peng insisted on invitingly inviting Shen Peng to sit down and accompany Yang Peng to dinner. While eating, Yang Peng asked, "How did you check the things you checked before?" ”

Shen Peng hurriedly put down the chopsticks, swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth raw, and said respectfully: "The old servant has already checked." The fourth young master is indeed in Princess Tiejing's mansion. Now he has sat in the position of the commander of the princess's palace guards. Yang Peng nodded and asked again, "Have you tried to contact him?" ”

Shen Peng said embarrassedly: "Fourth young master...... Every time the fourth young master came out, he was with Princess Tiejing. Our people don't have the opportunity to come into contact. And Princess Tiejing's mansion never used Song slaves. So our people can't get in. Yang Peng smacked his mouth and said something that made Shen Peng confused.

"A thousand miles of marriage is a thread! It's really a bad fate, and I can't escape it......" As Yang Peng said, the marriage between Yang Si and Princess Tiejing is predestined. In the case of Yang Peng's wanton tampering with the history of the acting world, Yang Si still came together with Princess Tiejing. It seems that thousands of mountains and rivers can't stop the bad fate between the two.

Yang Peng glanced at the money bank, which seemed to be inconspicuous, but it attracted the attention of many businessmen and magnates in Shangjing. The real proprietor behind the money bank has always been a mysterious existence. There has been a lot of speculation about this.

Some people say that the owner of the money store is the Ryukyu royal family. It is also said that the proprietor of the money bank is the richest man in the Ryukyus. Some people even say that the proprietor behind the money bank is actually from the Zhao family of the pre-Qin dynasty. Behind every identity, there is a story full of legends.

Merchants traveled from north to south and spread these stories to various countries around the Ryukyus. However, even so, no one has ever seen the true face of the owner of the money bank. Today, the shopkeeper of the Beijing branch of the money bank is extremely respectful to a young man, and he is a domestic servant, which has caused everyone's speculation.

The proprietor of a mysterious money bank appears. As soon as this news came out, many people rushed to see it. Merchants are the most good at building relationships, and they feel that as long as they can have a meal with the owner of the money store, they will go out and do business with other people in the future, and others will have to give him three points of thin noodles.

Even if this three-point thin noodles are given for the sake of the money bank's face, it can bring them huge benefits. After the gilded greetings were handed into the money shop, Shen Peng's face became very strange.

Shen Peng was holding a sandalwood plate, the prayer code on the plate was neat, and after entering the room where Yang Peng was resting, he respectfully put the sandalwood plate on the table in front of Yang Peng. "How can there be so many prayers?" Yang Peng was wearing a snow-white robe, sitting cross-legged at the low desk in the wing, reading the news about Princess Tiejing's Mansion handed to him by Jinyiwei.

After seeing the plate of prayers brought by Shen Peng, he was obviously a little stunned. Shen Peng folded his hands in front of his abdomen, and said with a smile: "These are the merchants in the Liao Kingdom, and after learning that the city lord has arrived, they handed over the greeting post......"

"My identity revealed?" Yang Peng was a little surprised. Shen Peng shook his head and said respectfully: "They just want to visit the owner behind the money bank, and they don't know the identity of the city lord." Yang Peng was stunned, nodded, reached out and picked up a prayer note from the plate, opened it and looked at it, and threw it back to the plate. After flipping through more than a dozen worship posts one after another, Yang Peng pushed the plate containing the worship posts in front of Shen Peng.

"What a bunch of losers, either gold-trimmed, gold-plated, or even gilded? Is this showing off my wealth? Yang Peng waved his hand with little interest, "Take it down and find a way to get the gold out of it and deposit it in my account." The corners of Shen Peng's mouth twitched, but he still did so.

The person who can melt the worship post handed in by others to take the gold, I am afraid that there is only Yang Peng in the aristocratic circle of the world. Shen Peng really wanted to tell Yang Peng that the craftsmen would peel off the gold on it exactly and pay for it, which was far more expensive than the gold on these prayer posts. After sending Shen Peng away, Yang Peng sat at his desk and continued to watch the information handed over by Jinyiwei.

According to the Jinyi Guard's intelligence, in recent days, the guards of Princess Tiejing's Mansion have increased by thirty percent. In addition, on both sides of the street where Princess Tiejing lived, there were a large number of guards and soldiers. The Guards were one of the guards of the Liao royal family, and their number remained at around 3,000. Its combat effectiveness is far stronger than that of the elite leather room army of the Liao State. It's a bit similar to the Golden Gun Class of the Great Song Dynasty, the Imperial Dragon Direct Guard, and other Ouchi guards.

These guards were hovering around the Iron Mirror Princess's Mansion, and what they did made many people feel incredible. That is to expel the Song people. Others may feel a little inexplicable, but Yang Peng felt a strong malice from this. It seems that Princess Tiejing has guessed that he has arrived in the capital of the Liao Kingdom, so she is secretly targeting him.

It's just that since Princess Tiejing guessed that he had arrived in Shangjing in the Liao Kingdom, she didn't report it to Brother Yelu Xiu and Empress Dowager Xiao, which surprised Yang Peng. Yang Peng clearly knew his hostile position in the hearts of Yelu Hugo and Empress Dowager Xiao, the two people who stood at the top of the power of the Liao State. I'm afraid that he is only one head lower than Zhao Heng, who is regarded as a big danger by the Liao State.

If the two of them knew that Yang Peng had entered the capital city, they would definitely send someone to close the four gates, and then the army would press the border and catch turtles in an urn. And there has been no major movement in Shangjing so far, which just shows that Princess Tiejing did not reveal his identity to Yelu Xiuge and Empress Dowager Xiao. Yang Peng bent his fingers and tapped on the table, while figuring out Princess Tiejing's thoughts, and at the same time thinking about how to approach Princess Tiejing's mansion.

Princess Tiejing, on the one hand, showed hostility towards her, and on the other hand, concealed his whereabouts for him, which made Yang Peng very incomprehensible. When Yang Peng thought about countermeasures again, Shen Peng once again entered Yang Peng's room with a plate full of prayer posts. Yang Peng didn't care about those prayers, but asked Shen Peng sideways, "Shen Peng, tell me, can you avoid the eyes of the guards and guards of Princess Tiejing's Mansion and see my fourth brother?" ”

Shen Peng smiled and took out an invitation from the plate and put it in front of Yang Peng, "Maybe this invitation can help." ”

"Han Fu?" Yang Peng flipped through the post and saw two big characters, he raised his head in some surprise and asked, "That Han Mansion?" Shen Peng bowed and said: "The Han Mansion of Han Derang, the Duke of Chu, ...... "Han Derang, the Duke of Chu of Liao, is a character."

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Han Derang's grandfather Han Zhigu was plundered to the Liao State and became a slave, and later his grandfather, with the body of a slave, went all the way to the position of the Liao State's Zhongshu Order. Han Derang's father, Han Kuangsi, stayed in Nanjing and was named the king of Yan, and later because of the failure of the battle with the Song army, he was awarded the envoy of Jin Changjie, and the title was reduced to the position of the king of Qin.

Han Derang was nurtured by his grandfather and father since he was a child, and he was wise enough to understand the principles of governing the country. Later, he became an official and successively defeated Zhao Guangyi's two battles against Liao. He was awarded the title of privy envoy of the Southern Court of Liao and Duke of Chu. became the most powerful Hanchen in Liao.

After the death of Liao Jingzong, he reached a secret agreement with Xiao Zhuo and supported the current young emperor. He became one of the four Auxiliary Ministers. In order to win him over, Xiao Zuo not only promoted him to the Duke of Chu, but also gave him the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, and the political order, and even gave him the name Dechang.

In this way, he was cleared of his status as a slave. Even recently, there are rumors that Empress Dowager Xiao gave the royal family name to Han Derang. And Han Derang is also one of the supporters of Empress Dowager Xiao, the Empress Dowager. After the plundering of the two capitals, the Yelu royal family and the Xiao family jointly forced the palace. In order to solve the worries of the Empress Dowager Xiao, Han Derang has secretly begun to plan with the Empress Dowager Xiao to reform the system of the Liao State and implement the Han system in the Liao State.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
