On the busy heavenly street, an inconspicuous tea stall was filled with a group of strange people at this time.

These men carried stilts and wore the same clothes as ordinary peasants selling mountain goods, but the people sitting on the outermost side stared warily around as if they were afraid of being discovered.

Not surprisingly, these people's actions were watched by another group of people.

On the roof of the opposite street, two people were lying there quietly, talking to each other as if they were talking about something, and one of them was Yang Huaizhen.

"Yang Lan, who are you talking about?"

The one who is called Yang Lan is Yang Huaizhen's deputy, "Lord Yang, those people look like farmers, but they can't escape the eyes of their humble duties, each of them has a short knife hidden under their clothes, in order to prevent the wind from blowing the hem of their clothes, the knife below was discovered, and they also tucked the corners of their clothes in." ”

Yang Lan continued to ask, "My lord, do you want to arrest them?" ”

Yang Huaizhen stopped Yang Lan, who was about to jump: "No, this is in the city, we can't arrest people indiscriminately without evidence, not to mention that it is not clear whether these people are strong or weak, once they rashly attack the grass and startle the snake, the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"So what do we do?"

Yang Huaizhen looked at the group of people in the distance and suddenly moved a little, and hurriedly pressed Yang Lan's head down.

"Are they going out of town?" Everyone walked towards the city gate, and they were also looked at by Yang Huaizhen.

Yang Lan was puzzled: "It's really weird, where are they going when they go out of the city?" ”

"Forget so much, keep up."

With that, Yang Lan slammed down, and there was only one person left on the roof.

"It's really fast."

In just an instant, the two groups of people disappeared completely.

"Weird, where are they going?"

Yang Huaizhen jumped down and walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion while thinking.

Someone suddenly slapped him on the back, and Yang Huaizhen turned around suddenly, but was startled by a familiar face.

"Is that you?"

The person behind it turned out to be Lin Xi.

Lin Xi bowed and said, "I've seen Lord Yang." ”

"Okay, okay, you don't have to bow down the street - I said when did you get behind me?"

"Just now, actually, I found out that you were on the roof, but I didn't keep up."

Yang Huaizhen looked at Lin Xi with some admiration: "It seems that my hiding skills are too clumsy?" ”

"I can't say that, Lord Yang, as a civil official, is already very powerful, just because Lin Xi is behind you, you can't notice me."

"You've been behind me?" Yang Huaizhen was shocked.

"Yes."

Yang Huaizhen laughed a little ashamedly: "Why are you so elusive?" ”

"I am what you call a Jianghu person, you can take this as a hobby, but almost everything I earn depends on this, how can I not be powerful?"

Yang Huaizhen smiled: "Where do you live?" ”

"The inn?"

"Can you take me there?"

"Of course, please-"

In the inn, everyone also received Lin Xi's news early and rushed back from all over Bianjing.

"The five of you live together?"

Lin Xi smiled awkwardly: "Anyway, there are not a few days, let's make do with it first." ”

"Lin Xi, is he?" Ling Yebai pulled Lin Xi's arm and looked at the man in front of him suspiciously.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the descendant of Yang Ye and Yang Lao Linggong, Yang Huaizhen."

"Old Yang Linggong? But the descendants of the famous Yang general? Li Qingyou asked in surprise.

Although he is far away in Western Xia, he has heard many people talk about the story of the famous generals of the Yang family, defending the country and powering the world.

"Caused by the power of the ancestors, it is just below."

In front of everyone, Yang Huaizhen was very humble.

"It's actually not bad here, it's much stronger than the border, and my brothers are still at the Songxia border and haven't come back."

"What, are there wars again?" Ling Luochen asked worriedly.

"The relationship between Song and Xia has not been very good, and the border generals have to stay there all the time, there is no way...... Yang Huaizhen said heavily: "My four elder brothers all died on the battlefield of Song Liao, I really don't want to fight, but this ...... It's just a beautiful fantasy after all. ”

"I understand you." Lin Xi patted Yang Huaizhen on the shoulder and comforted: "It's just that some wars are unavoidable, I hope you can understand." ”

"You mean, Liu Xi?"

Lin Xi nodded.

"I understand...... By the way, I almost forgot to tell you, just now we found strange people, these people are dressed as peasants, but each of them carries a sword, I was afraid of startling the snake, so I did not act rashly, but let my subordinate Yang Lu follow them out of the city. ”

"How many people are out of town?"

"About ten people, all out of the city."

"It's the South Gate, right?"

"That's right."

"Lord Yang," Lin Xi suddenly interjected, "If you are Liu Xi and want to rebel, what is the first thing to do?" ”

"This kind of thing... You shouldn't be asking me, should you? ”

Lin Xi teased: "Lord Yang is too modest, haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?" What's more, Lord Yang's family has a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of person, right? ”

"Haha......" Yang Huaizhen smiled: "Are you praising me or hurting me?" ”

Lin Xi sneered: "Isn't this a compliment to your strong ability." ”

Yang Huaizhen lowered his head and began to think seriously: "The first thing...... It must be to find a legitimate reason to control the emperor. ”

"I also know this, Liu Xi is waiting for this opportunity now. And what about it? ”

"If anything...... Purge dissidents! ”

Lin Xi's eyes lit up: "That's right! Purge dissidents—"

Yang Huaizhen's expression gradually became solemn: "What do you mean......"

Lin Xi asked, "If Liu Xi wants to eliminate dissidents, who will be the first to be solved?" ”

"You mean Elder Wang and my faction? But both of us have military power, how dare he be so bold? ”

Lin Xi shook his head: "Solving you must be a matter after the emperor is controlled, and there is one person, far away in the sky, but he must be the first to get rid of it!" ”

"You mean......" Yang Huaizhen reacted, and then was shocked: "You mean Kou Xiang?" ”

Lin Xi looked quite calm, but at this time, he was already eager to grow wings immediately and fly to Jingbei to protect Kou Xiang.

"Now that Kou Xiang has been degraded to Jingbei for slander, isn't it the person Liu Xi wants to get rid of the most, and the easiest to get rid of?"

Yang Huaizhen asked with some panic: "If it's true, then what now?" ”

It's no wonder that he is panicked, it is a matter of the emperor's safety and the life and death of several court officials, and no one can be too easy.

"They just left, and it should be too late."

"Come here—"

Everyone got together and whispered to Lin Xi-

They wouldn't know that from this moment on, the gears of fate would turn - the world of the Great Song Dynasty was about to undergo earth-shaking changes in these people.
