"The head of the Chen County Intelligence Group of the Yuzhou Intelligence Office has seen two generals in the dark night. "When night fell, Gao Zhong and Zhao Yun appeared in a ruined temple outside Chenjun City. The two didn't wait long in this temple before a man in black appeared in front of them. The interior of the Dark Night Quicksand also implements the practice that the subordinates only obey their own superiors, so as to ensure that the Night Quicksand does not fall into the hands of a certain person.

"I know the rules of your night quicksand, I have no right to order you, I want to know what is going on in the Tiger Prison Pass today? And what is going on with Nangong Hirohiko, the guard of the Tiger Prison Pass?" Gao Zhong and the others naturally know the rules of the dark night quicksand, and the intelligence officers who have seen people in their true faces will forever withdraw from the dark night quicksand, and hide it in the specified place, and will not be able to appear in everyone's sight for the rest of their lives.

"Two generals, the Tiger Prison is subordinate to the Sizhou Intelligence Department. However, at noon today, the Sizhou Intelligence Office had already sent information to the lowly officials, and this is the information they sent. The man in black took out a piece of information from his arms and handed it to Gao Chong, who read the information and handed it to Zhao Yun on the side.

Gao Zhong looked at the man in black and nodded, "You know about Nangong Boyan, I need to be as detailed as possible." "Nangong Boyan has now become a knot in Gao Chong's heart that can never be erased, Nangong Boyan's appearance is too mysterious, and his actions are too weird. The martial arts cultivation is very powerful, which makes Gao Zhong have to be cautious. If such an opponent can be wiped out as soon as possible, Gao Zhong will definitely not let him continue to stay in this world.

"Nangong Boyan?" the man in black whispered in his mouth: "Two generals, this Nangong Boyan we haven't collected a lot of information now, as if this person also appeared out of thin air. Before Zhang let the whole army. This Nangong Boyan is also only a deputy commander of the Third Praetorian Guard Legion. Later, Zhang Rang set up the ring to elect officials in the army. He's just coming to prominence. With an amazing martial arts, he won the position of the commander of the twelve Praetorian Guards in this place. ”

"After the Twelfth Praetorian Guard Regiment was rotated to the Tiger Prison Pass, this Nangong Boyan only trained every day, and he was conscientious, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary. He himself is as low-key, sincere, and hard-working as he was in the Third Praetorian Guard. However, I have heard a news that this Nangong Boyan seems to be a member of the Eight Great Emperor Merchants. The man in black carefully searched for the information about Nangong Boyan in the minds of the people, and every piece of information was important. For them, the intelligence officers, there are some things that must be kept in mind.

"Eight Imperial Merchants?" When Gao Pet was summoned, Zhang Rang had already ended the coup d'état, but Gao Pet also knew something more or less from the newspaper. Zhang Rang's coup was successful, and the eight imperial merchants standing behind him were also a very important factor. The Four Kings and Eight Martial Marquis may seem like a glamorous title in the eyes of others, and maybe they are the ones who really control the empire, but in fact they are not.

The so-called Eight Great Emperor Merchants are Zhao, Zhou, and Li. King, horse. Cao, Xu, Xiahou and other eight families headed by a business alliance, these eight are the first emperor personally promulgated the eight imperial merchants, they belong to the imperial family of businessmen, in the business of the empire to give a certain amount of support and tax support. They all made immortal feats in the process of the First Emperor's struggle for world domination, and it can be said that without them, there would be no Praetorian Guard under the command of the First Emperor who fought in the south and the north and fought all over the world.

The empire is not a purely agricultural country, and the commerce of the empire has penetrated all walks of life in the empire, and even many princes and nobles have a lot of business transactions. Just like before the Liu family was driven out of the imperial capital, they also had a lot of shops in the imperial capital, otherwise the little money in the imperial court would not be enough to support a large and small family. The empire's commercial taxes are the main source of the empire's financial revenue, and 90% of the empire's military expenditure is supported by the empire's financial taxes.

And the people who control the business of this empire are the eight imperial merchants who made great contributions to the first emperor's struggle for hegemony in the world, and they control almost all walks of life in the empire. Almost all commercial activities have their shadows, just as they themselves once put out their own rhetoric, without their eight imperial merchants, there would be no empire. Zhang Rang was able to succeed in the coup, it was obviously impossible without the support of the Eight Great Imperial Merchants in the rear, if it was really like the phenomenon on the surface, the Eight Great Imperial Merchants were generally supporting He Muping, with the relationship between the Eight Families, not to mention that Zhang Rang wanted to defect, just a military expenditure alone could drag Zhang Rang to death. This is also the reason why Weishenme Zhang Rang was still able to feed millions of troops despite the loss of taxes in Jiangnan, as long as the Eight Great Imperial Merchants were willing, they could even help Zhang Rang feed tens of millions of troops.

No one knows how much wealth the Eight Great Imperial Merchants have, only that their thousand-year-old marriage has formed an intricate relationship. At that time, the royal family also tried to crack the relationship between the eight imperial merchants, but they all failed. The reason for their failure is very simple, that is, the eight imperial merchants refused to provide anything for the royal family, and this alone put the life of the imperial family in a difficult situation, not only because the imperial empire could not make ends meet in taxes, but also because in difficult times, even the officials could not pay their salaries. The Zuihou royal family can only make the strength of the eight imperial merchants bigger and bigger in the regression again and again. Now there is a gradual formation of a tail that cannot be defeated, which means that the fate of the empire is actually in the hands of these people to a certain extent.

If Nangong Hiroshi is a member of the Eight Great Emperor Merchants, then the whole thing is a completely different concept. It is a well-known fact that the eight royal families support Zhang Rang. But looking at yesterday's performance, Nangong Boyan doesn't seem to have any respect for Zhang Rang, what secrets are hidden in this?

"Can you be sure that he is a member of the Eight Great Emperor Merchants? What is the relationship between Zhang Rang and the Eight Great Emperor Merchants?" Gao Zhong looked at the man in black with a solemn face, what role did the Eight Great Emperor Merchants play in this matter? What did the Eight Great Emperor Merchants mean to the Liu family? All of this was still an unknown, but the whole thing was becoming more and more confusing.

"I'm not sure, I've only undoubtedly heard one of his subordinates mention it, and we haven't found any useful information about it. ”

"Continue to investigate, we must find out the relationship between Nangong Boyan and the Eight Great Emperor Merchants, and send this news to Jianye City immediately, and ask the lord to make a decision. "This information is too important, and it is likely that this will change the entire combat strategy of the Liu family army against Zhang Rang, and Gao Zhong dares to have the slightest delay.
