Chapter 137: Black Maitreya, Old Birthday Star, and Little Country Hand (5,000 Words)
Emperor Hongzhi ordered Chang Feng to temporarily replace the duties of the Nanzhen envoy, which was not a wise will.
In the past two years, every errand that Emperor Hongzhi gave to Chang Feng, Chang Feng was able to do it properly.
Emperor Hongzhi should have believed that Chang Feng could manage the enemy's affairs.
However, Emperor Hongzhi forgot that Han Yu said that "there is a specialization in art".
Chang Feng has no experience in running an information network. Not to mention...... Now that the whereabouts of the roster of hidden piles are unknown, the entire intelligence network is still unknown.
Qian Neng smiled and said, "Congratulations to Chang Qianhu. The military situation in Datong is urgent, if you can make a meritorious service, the word temporary generation will definitely be crossed out by the emperor."
"At that time, you will be the envoy of Nanzhen, the military attache of the imperial court!"
Chang Feng was not happy at all. People are valuable in self-knowledge, and he knows how many catties and taels he has.
If you talk about raiding the house. But with two capitals and thirteen provinces, he often calls it the second, and no one dares to call it the first.
If it is said that the enemy country is grasped in detail, and the intelligence of the enemy country is spied on. He was a white-necked man with black eyes.
If Emperor Hongzhi asked him to go to Nanzhen Fusi to be a thousand households. With a master to take care of, after three or two years of study, maybe he can have the ability to take charge of himself.
Can you come up and let him temporarily act as the envoy of Nanzhen? Difficult! It's so hard!
Zhu Ji also sees it this way. He objected: "Father-in-law Qian, Chang Feng has never served in Nansi, and he has no understanding of Nansi's affairs......
Qian Neng's godson relied on Chang Feng to rise to four levels in a row. Qian Neng naturally spoke to Chang Feng: "Commander Zhu made this statement bad. Chang Qianhu is shrewd and capable, and he is responsible for everything and can do it clearly."
"Besides, this is the emperor's will. Is Commander Zhu disagreeing with the Holy Decree?"
Zhu Ji hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that."
Qian Neng said, "That's it. I'll go back to the celebrant first."
After Qian Neng left, Zhu Ji asked Chang Feng, "What can you do?"
Chang Feng told the truth: "There is no bottom in the hearts of subordinates."
Zhu Ji said, "That's it. Although it is urgent to find the dark pile roster, it is not too long or two away. You go back to Weili first, and meet with the thousands and hundreds of households in Nansi."
Chang Feng asked, "What about inspecting the Thousand Households?"
Zhu Ji thought for a while and replied, "The inspection of thousands of households will be handed over to Sun Luan for management first."
Xu Fatzi said on the side, "Commander, Chang Ye and I are little grasshoppers tied to a rope. When he goes to Nansi, I will follow him and give him a hand."
Zhu Ji nodded: "Yes. The two of you have been in the same place for five years, and you have a tacit understanding. You will be transferred to Nanji as a deputy Qianhu."
Chang Feng returned to Jinyiwei and summoned three thousand households and thirty hundred households in the Nanzhen Fu envoy duty room.
The three thousand households of Nanzhen Fusi are Black Maitreya, Lao Shouxing, and Little National Hand.
Black Maitreya's real name is Zhao Xiangfo. It's like black charcoal. Eighteen years ago, he used his identity as a lama in the Uszang Snow Mountain to collect intelligence. Hence the name Black Maitreya.
The old birthday star's real name is Sun Guishou. He is the oldest in the entire brocade guard. He was seventy-nine years old. In the last years of Yongle, he played in Jinyiwei. It has experienced the rule of Renxuan, the change of Tumubao, and the change of seizing the door. He is an old minister of the Seven Dynasties.
He joined the guard at the age of sixteen, and has been in charge of investigating the details of the enemy faction in the capital for sixty-three years.
In his own words, "It will not be a problem to eat roast duck for another ten years and eight years."
The small national hand Wang Miaoxin. is only twenty-seven years old, but he is the leader in the game world in Beijing.
Handan Chun, a Wei man, classified Go players as nine grades in the "Book of Arts".
The first product is in the spirit, the second product is sitting in the photo, the third product is concrete, the fourth product is quiet, the fifth product is wise, the sixth product is small, the seventh product is powerful, the eighth product is foolish, and the ninth product is clumsy.
Wang Miaoxin is recognized as a four-grade secluded realm in the Beijing Yi world.
Above the six-grade small realm, you can be called a national hand. In the past 20 years, there are only seven national players who can reach the four-rank secluded realm in the whole world.
From one to the third grade, it is only one in decades or hundreds of years.
People who play chess well, usually
Very smart. Wang Miaoxin is good at calculation and layout.
I heard that Chang Feng temporarily took the place of Nanzhen's envoy. The three thousand households were a little unimpressed.
Black Maitreya Zhao said to the Buddha: "Collecting intelligence, arresting and meticulously crafting, sending secret piles and raiding homes are two different things. When Chang Qianhu first entered this road, he was in charge of the entire Nansi. I'm afraid ......."
Chang Feng only temporarily replaced his powers, and did not officially take over the Great Seal of Nanzhen's Fu Envoy. Therefore, Zhao Xiangfo still called him "Thousand Households".
Sun Guishou chimed in: "Yes. Chang Qianhu, I usually have a good relationship with you. You've also invited me to drink. But you are in charge of Nansi, so there is a comparison."
Chang Feng asked, "Oh? What's more?"
Sun Guishou sighed: "Alas, it's like a little house finch flying into a flock of geese - I can't keep up!"
Wang Miaoxin also said, "Yes. Liao Ye died unexpectedly. Our Nansi is like losing the backbone. You're in charge of Nanji....... I hope there are fewer stupid tricks and I can have a good hand!"
These three people have no ill will towards Chang Feng. On weekdays, Chang Feng has a good relationship with the seven thousand households of the South and North Divisions.
It's really that the will of Emperor Hongzhi is not very clever. They are not picky about the people who are often windy. It's just that there are doubts about Chang Feng's ability.
Chang Feng sighed, "Alas. How can I not know that I am blinded in Nansi? This is the emperor's will, and I can't resist it."
"I'm only going to be able to hold the boat in the dung pit - the dung gushing (bravely) forward!"
"What do the three seniors think about the present?"
Sun Guishou said, "Great compassion is in danger. The soldiers at the front are looking forward to the intelligence of the Tartar army, like the clouds of hope for a great drought."
"However, Liao Ye was stabbed. The roster of hidden stakes in his hands was gone. We can't get in touch with the Tartars."
"Besides, it's possible that the Tartar army has sent fake stakes to send us false information. Without a roster, we can't tell who's real and who's fake."
"The first priority is to find the roster of hidden stakes."
Zhao Xiangfo and Wang Miaoxin agreed: "The old birthday star is right."
"Well, we'll need to find the roster first."
Suddenly, Zhu Ji's personal hundred households walked in: "Zhao Qianhu, Sun Qianhu. The commander told you to go to his room."
Sun Guishou asked, "Have an errand?"
Baihu nodded slightly: "It seems that the two people behind the investigation of Liao Ye's assassination are behind it."
Black Maitreya and the old birthday star left the duty shop.
Chang Feng said, "All of you have scattered your robes. Wang Qianhu and Xu Guangzuo will stay for a while."
The crowd dispersed. Chang Feng instructed the two: "Let's go, let's go to the Yuansheng Teahouse in the south of the city."
The Yuansheng Teahouse is the only clue that Chang Feng currently has about the dark pile roster.
The three of them rode horses and came to the Yuansheng Teahouse.
The teahouse was already full of people. Those who roll the dice and push the pai gow, the gamblers have red eyes. It's as if the casino is the battlefield.
Chang Feng found Shi Jian, the deputy head of the Miaoshou Gate.
Shi Jian led the three of them to an empty private room on the second floor and asked, "Chang Zongqi, why are you here?"
Fat Xu said with a smile: "Brother Shi, our Chang Ye is a stable woman to spread the good news - it has risen! Now I'm going to change my name to Chang Qianhu."
Shi Jian arched his hand: "Ahhh Congratulations to Chang Qianhu."
Chang Feng got straight to the point: "Do you know a man who is around fifty years old? Not tall, lean. There is a black mole on the right chin. He has a big tongue, like he will say oranges are oranges."
Chang Feng described Liao Fanyong's physical characteristics.
Shi Jian said, "I know! You're talking about the Tiger Master, right? He was a friend of our big treasurer. I always rubbed hemp with our big shopkeeper and two other friends."
Wang Miaoxin attached to Chang Feng's ear: "Big Tiger is one of Liao Ye's pseudonyms."
Chang Feng asked, "Where are your great treasurers?"
Shi Jian replied, "In the account room. Wait a minute, you two, I'll go find him."
Not long after, Gao Jin, the big shopkeeper of Yuansheng Teahouse, walked in.
Gao Jin is not good-looking, and he belongs to the kind of appearance that can't be found in the heap of people.
Chang Feng showed a thousand waist cards: "High shopkeeper
We are the Brocade Guard."
The shopkeeper said to Shi Jian, "You go down first."
After Shi Jian left, the high shopkeeper "Puff Tong" knelt down for Chang Feng: "Jinyi Weinan Town Fu Si is in charge of 100 households Gao Jin, meet Chang Qianhu!"
Chang Feng was surprised: "Are you a member of the Jinyi Guard?"
The shopkeeper arched his hand: "Exactly. His subordinates have been guarding the roster of hidden piles for eleven years under the cover of the Yuansheng Teahouse."
Chang Feng turned his head and asked Wang Miaoxin, "Wang Qianhu, he calls himself the person of Nansi. Do you know that?"
Wang Miaoxin shook her head slightly.
The shopkeeper said, "The subordinates are also one of the hidden piles. The identity of Nansi's hidden pile is secret, and many of the hidden piles don't know the identity even if there are thousands of households above."
Wang Miaoxin said, "What he said is the truth."
Most of the important dark piles of the South Division are in one-line contact with Liao Fanyong.
There are two benefits to a single line of contact. The first benefit is that the identity of the dark pile is not easy to be detected by outsiders.
The second benefit, the important hidden pile is in the hands of Liao Fanyong. Even if the dynasty changes, Jinyiwei will change greatly, and the new commander will have to continue to use his old Liao. This is called the self-weight of the dark pile.
Chang Feng said, "There must be a certificate, right? You can't say yes."
The shopkeeper Gao said, "Master Chang wait a moment."
He turned and walked away. Return in a short time. There is an extra waist card in hand.
I saw a big book on the front of the waist card, "Jinyi Weinan Town Fu Sixia, 100 households, high."
On the back, there is a line of small words "This card is not used out of Beijing".
Chang Feng took the waist card and looked at it, the waist card was true or not.
The shopkeeper Gao said, "In addition, my name is also in the dark pile roster. You can prove who I am."
When it comes to the dark pile roster, Chang Feng's eyes light up. There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
He hurriedly asked, "Where is the roster of hidden stakes?"
The shopkeeper replied, "I just got the news that Liao Ye has been assassinated. But I can't just give the roster to someone else. Even the thousand households of Jinyiwei will not make it."
"Besides, as far as I know, Chang Qianhu, you are a member of the Fuji of Beizhen. It has always had nothing to do with Nansi."
Chang Feng said: "There is a holy decree, let me temporarily take the role of Nanzhen's envoy. The whole Nansi is now under my control, and you should naturally hand over the roster to me."
The shopkeeper Gao was very careful: "Can you let your subordinates take a look at the holy decree?" As long as there is a holy decree for you to take charge of Nansi for the time being, I will hand over the roster of hidden piles to you."
"I beg your understanding. This roster is the painstaking efforts of generations of Nansi's predecessors and juniors, and it is the top secret of Nansi and even the entire Ming Dynasty."
It is impossible for Changfeng to carry this thing with him. That holy decree has been offered by him in the duty room of the Nanzhen Fu Envoy.
Chang Feng praised the shopkeeper Gao: "He is a cautious person."
Then he instructed Xu Fatzi, "You go back to Jinyiwei and get the holy decree."
Fat Xu is gone. Chang Feng and the high shopkeeper and Wang Miaoxin sat down to drink tea and wait.
Chang Feng asked, "Mrs. Liao said that Master Liao often comes to you to rub hemp with you. The hemp hung four people to rub. Who are the other two pairs?"
The shopkeeper said, "This is different from the dark pile roster. I can tell you. The other two cards are important hidden stakes lurking in the official camp."
"One is called Guan Gong. 100 households in the health industry. He is the side line of the branch of the Heavenly Grandfather's subordinate to the Lord."
"The second one is called Yang Chun. The general flag of the guard. The hidden identity in the high-ranking camp is a blacksmith."
Chang Feng asked again, "Do you know a thing or two about the reason for Liao Ye's assassination?"
The shopkeeper replied, "The day before yesterday, Guan Gong said that he was about to get a big secret. It has to do with the Datong Military Intelligence and the Condor."
Chang Feng was a little strange: "Vulture Society? What's that?"
The shopkeeper Gao explained. The Condor Society is a small organization of the Tatars in the capital.
Nanzhen Fusi has been fighting with it for more than ten years. However, the vultures will hide deeply, and Nanji has not been able to uproot them.
The mission of the Condor Society is "Anti-Sight Restoration".
Guantong is the secret stake of Nanzhen Fusi to enter the Condor Society.
After chatting for more than half an hour, Xu Fatzi went and returned with the holy decree.
The shopkeeper Gao looked at it and said, "Chang Qianhu. The Dark Stake Roster has been officially handed over to you."
Chang Feng asked, "Where is the roster?"
The shopkeeper replied, "It's in the Yuansheng Teahouse."
Chang Feng was a little strange: "Such an important list, Liao Ye is not placed in Nanzhen Fusi, not at home, why should it be placed in your teahouse?"
The shopkeeper explained, "The eyes of the Condor Society have long been fixed on this roster. It's not safe to keep in his house."
"As for not putting it in Nanzhen Fusi...... Liao Ye is not guarding against the Vulture Society, but against his own people."
Chang Feng knew in his heart: whoever masters this roster will be able to control Nanzhen Fusi. Lao Liao is afraid that others will replace him. He has selfish motives.
Chang Feng asked, "Then your teahouse is safe?"
Shopkeeper Gao smiled, "Do you know what is the underground of the Yuansheng Teahouse? It's an underground arsenal of the pseudo-Yuan Shun Emperor and the cowardly Xue army!"
"At the beginning, Xu Dabing, the king of Zhongshan, surrounded the capital. Emperor Shun did not fight and fled north. There are 300 people in the cowardly Xue army under Emperor Shun who are hiding incognito in the city."
"They built this arsenal and stored the ordnance. I hope that one day the puppet Yuan army will fight back, so they can take the ordnance and meet the outside."
"This arsenal is made of granite in the ground. Extremely rugged. It's perfect for storing the stake roster."
Chang Feng hurriedly asked, "It's an underground secret room. There is always a secret entrance, where is the entrance?"
The shopkeeper replied, "The entrance is very secretive. Don't look at your family background, but even if you do, it's hard to find. It's ......."
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, the gamblers downstairs seemed to have an argument. The smashing continued.
The shopkeeper frowned: "I'll go down and take a look."
Chang Feng and they followed.
I saw four gamblers with a blind appearance, shouting "you are out of a thousand", smashing the gambling table with a bench.
More than a dozen casino thugs surrounded each other, and the two sides confronted each other.
Shopkeeper Gao went downstairs: "What's the matter?"
It's too late, it's too soon. A Mongolian man took out a Mongolian secret weapon - a rim from the blanket he was carrying.
The rim is a unique hidden weapon of the Mongolian people. Wear it on your left wrist and shake it with the finger ferrule of your right hand to throw it at the enemy.
On the outside of the rim, there are dozens of serrated spikes, which can seriously injure a person's head and neck.
Nowadays, the "Sun, Moon, Hot Wheels" and "Sun, Moon and Goose Wings" used by the people of the rivers and lakes who are playing tricks are all evolved from the rims.
"Wow!"
The Namonites threw the rim. flew directly to the tall shopkeeper ten paces away.
"Poof!" The rim was tied around the neck of the tall shopkeeper. The high shopkeeper immediately splashed blood!
Chang Feng shouted at a dozen thugs, "Don't catch them yet! Come on!"
The four Mongols were apparently dead. I didn't even think about running away.
They all pulled out their daggers and shouted in unison, "Long live Dayuan! Long live Genghis Khan!"
Then he plunged the dagger into his chest!
Chang Feng hurriedly ran to the shopkeeper Gao's side, leaned over and probed the shopkeeper's snort with his hand.
Fat Xu asked, "Are you still angry?"
Chang Feng shook his head slightly.
The shopkeeper Gao has returned to the west.
Look at the four Mongolian Assassins. Their daggers were smeared with poison that had sealed their throats with blood. and all of them have returned to the West.
Wang Miaoxin was puzzled: "According to what the shopkeeper said just now, his identity is very secret. Only Liao Ye, Guan Gong, and Yang Chun know about it."
"The Mongols came to assassinate him, and it was definitely not a casino dispute. Rather, he knew his identity. Probably for the roster."
"Master Liao is dead. The only ones who leaked the identity of the shopkeeper Gao were Guan Gong and Yang Chun."
Xu Fatzi said, "It's not that I said that the dead are not! This high shopkeeper is panting loudly! It was said that there was a secret room under the teahouse, but it didn't say where the entrance was!"
Chang Feng said: "It's easy to know that the secret room is under the teahouse. other
I forgot what we two came from."
On the first floor of the Yuansheng Tea House is the hall and four rooms.
On the second floor there are ten rooms. These include private rooms and accounts.
Chang Feng asked Xu Fatzi to return to Jinyiwei and called a hundred captains and wrestlers who inspected the Thousand Households.
These people are all experts in raiding homes and finding secret rooms and secret passages.
Everyone rolled up their arms and rolled up their sleeves. Chang Feng confidently ordered: "Search!"
Chang Feng wanted to let his new subordinate Wang Miaoxin see how capable he was under the inspection of Qianhu.
Chang Feng himself mainly searched the bookkeeper's account and bedroom.
However, it backfired! An hour passed. The teahouse was turned upside down. Where is the shadow of the entrance to the secret passage?
Xu Fatzi complained, "Chang Ye, fuck it. It was also a coincidence that those four Mongolian assassins came! But if we have to work hard late, we won't have to waste this strength!"
Chang Feng said, "It's useless to say this. Find the entrance, enter the secret room, and get the roster."
Xu Fatzi nodded at Wang Miaoxin in the distance: "But the brothers have searched the teahouse, but they haven't found the entrance. Now it's going to make that little country player see the joke!"
"Master Chang, you just took charge of Nansi. If the first shot doesn't go off, will the people below still be able to obey you?"
Chang Feng thought for a while and said, "The method of copying the house is divided into fine copying and rough copying. The detailed copy is to carefully inspect the 'Eight Collections' at the official residence."
"Rough copying is generally not used. Looks like we're going to have to make a rough copy today."
The so-called rough plagiarism, to put it bluntly, is to pick up the house!
Most of the officials' residences are deep mansions. And the deep mansion compound itself is also a kind of property of the convict. Therefore, it is generally not necessary to raid or pick up houses.
This is a big place for the Yuansheng teahouse. Directly picked up the house. The secret room below naturally sees the light of day.
Chang Feng asked Xu Fatzi to go to the south of the city to hire 300 strong men, and asked Wang Miaoxin to go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to transfer 200 soldiers. Plus a hundred people inspected the robes of thousands of households. Six hundred people in total.
He also sent his lieutenant to the 12th regimental battalion station, and transferred two siege crash vehicles.
Everything was ready, and Chang Feng gave an order: "Demolition! Tear down this teahouse for me."
