Chapter 561: Entering the Palace

After Li Zitong retreated, the next trip was quite calm and came to Yangzhou smoothly.

As soon as they arrived in Yangzhou, Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling got into the carriage under the arrangement of the Baling Gang, and Sister Xiao and Xiang Yushan accompanied them into the city, while Yun Yuzhen sat in another carriage with other arrangements.

The affairs in Yangzhou City were arranged by Dugu Sheng, the second powerful man of Dugu Valve. Dugu Sheng was afraid that Yuwen would predict the rumors, so he prevented the two from entering the palace and came to greet them in person.

This Dugu valve is second only to Dugu Feng Dugu surnamed master, his appearance is inconspicuous, he looks like a little old man in his fifties, short and thin like a monkey, but the pair of eyes that seem to be open and closed are deep and bright, and the temples on both sides are bulging high, making people know that he is not an idle person.

"Half-step Grandmaster!"

Jiang Shaofeng sensed his realm from Dugu Sheng's breath, this was an old and frail half-step grandmaster, and his strength was also top-notch among the innate masters, but it was not enough to look at the real grandmaster.

His martial arts, compared to Yu Wenhua two years ago, is still slightly better, but relying on stronger skills, Yu Wenhua and if he is not dead, just in the prime of life brave and diligent, young and strong, if he lives until now and Dugu Sheng is not much different, the fist is afraid of being less strong, and it is more likely that Dugu Sheng will die if he really fights.

However, now the Yuwen valve has a bad year, three of the four masters died in the hands of Jiang Shaofeng, but the specific process is not clear, Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling's rise is too abrupt, and the wounds have been covered up after the killing, no one thought that the masters of the Yuwen valve died in their hands.

Yuwen Valve died of the three masters, the only remaining Yuwen Zhihe and Yuwen Shi in the Mesozoic Era, compared to the old and spicy Dugu Sheng, Yuwen was injured and did not perform the court for a long time, the wind direction of Jiangdu these days, but the Yuwen Valve was suppressed by the Dugu Valve.

Dugu Shenggui is the No. 2 person in Dugu Valve, and naturally looks down on Jiang Shaofeng and the others who are born in duckweed and have no background, but he is old and spicy, and he is polite to Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling and keeps a distance, but he is quite kind to Xiao Huan and Xiangyushan, and obviously does not take Kou Xu very seriously.

Jiang Shaofeng and the others did not show dissatisfaction, and surrounded by Dugusheng and more than 100 guards, the carriage and the team entered Yangzhou City.

"Don't blame the two sons, Dugusheng doesn't know the prestige of the two of you......"

After Xiang Yushan made amends, he lowered his voice to the two of them and said, "We are really lucky this time, Yang Guang happened to be in the palace today."

You don't know, you don't know, since he became emperor, he has not stopped for a day, not traveling, but on expeditions, stirring up the anger of the heavens and the people, and the spirits and ghosts, otherwise everyone would not have rebelled. ”

Sister Xiao sighed: "Now he handed over Xijing Chang'an to his grandson Yang Yu, the king of the Eastern Capital, and Luoyang, the eastern capital, was governed by another grandson, Yang Tong, the king of Yue, but he hid here, so afraid that even the ladies of the Sixteenth Court in Luoyang abandoned it."

Du Fuwei hit Liyang, and Li Zitong forced Jiangdu again, where is his paradise in this world. ”

Xiang Yushan continued angrily: "Acting Wang Yuewang, one is twelve years old and one is eleven years old, and he wants to be in charge of the two capitals in the west and east respectively, and the authority still falls into the hands of powerful ministers such as Wang Shichong and others? If Yang Guang has any three strengths and two weaknesses, the world will be ten times more chaotic than it is now. ”

"The world is in chaos, it's just a matter of time sooner or later!"

The corners of Jiang Shaofeng's mouth twitched slightly, the world is not chaotic, how can he succeed!

Since Yang Guang ascended the throne, he ordered the construction of Yangzhou City, where he was the governor, and renamed it Jiangdu. Not only expand the city outline, Guangxing palace, repair gardens, but also in the north of the city by the mountains and rivers, build the 'Shugang Ten Palaces' such as Guiyan, Huiliu, pine forest, etc.

However, the most magnificent is the Linjiang Palace built on the bank of the Yangtze River, as long as Yang Guang has a whim, no matter morning or evening, he will go there to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Yangtze River.

When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling visited the most controversial emperor in history, he was drinking and drinking with his beloved concubines Xiao Yu and Zhu Gui'er at a palace overlooking the Yangtze River.

Kou Zhong and the others got off the bus in the square, the guards were extremely strict, Dugu Sheng personally searched their weapons, Jing Zhongyue was temporarily handed over to Xiao Huan Xiao by Jiang Shaofeng, Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling followed Dugu Sheng into the palace, but Xiang Yushan and Xiao Sister had to stay at the palace gate.

Dugu Sheng led them through the corridor, and the sound of the surging water of the Yangtze River faintly came from the continuous place of the palace in front of them.

Carved beams and paintings, flowers, magnificent, such palace is gorgeous, it is the ultimate art of this era, Xu Ziling is worried, has no intention of appreciating, Jiang Shaofeng is watching with relish.

The guards in the palace are everywhere, and there are people standing guard in the sentry tower, if it weren't for Dugusheng to lead the way, Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling would not be able to move an inch. It's hard to imagine how Fu Junwu sneaked in and almost succeeded in several assassinations and escaped with her whole body.

When Wangjiangtai was in sight, an official greeted them in front of them and intercepted them. This person is handsome, thirty-five or six years old, and after being introduced by Dugu Sheng, it turned out to be Yu Shiji, one of the most favored courtiers of Yang Guang at present.

Yu Shiji's footsteps are floating, he doesn't understand martial arts, and he has hollowed out his body because of the color of wine, his face is not inferior to Xiangyushan, and he looks weak.

After Yu Shiji looked at the two of them, he said to Dugu Sheng: "It's them." ”

Dugusheng nodded yes.

Yu Shiji's conversation with Dugu Sheng shows that this matter is also involved in this matter, Pei Yu and the two have always had common interests, and it seems that Yang Guang's other favorite minister, Yushi Dafu Pei Yun, should also be the backbone of the action against Yuwen Valve.

After Yu Shiji looked at the two of them carefully, he said: "Give me the account book first, and the two of you will wait in the side hall, and when the time comes, the official will come and take you to the pilgrimage." ”

Jiang Shaofeng simply took out the account book, this thing is very important, but the use is really limited, Jiang Shaofeng has long been memorized, and it has no effect if he pinches it in his hand.

He also knew Yu Shiji's thoughts, it was nothing more than grabbing merit, but Jiang Shaofeng didn't care about Yang Guang's merit reward at all, so why should he care if he robbed the merit!

Yu Shiji immediately looked through it, and when he revealed the detailed number of Yuwen valves in the middle, he laughed and said: "General Dugu, we are really a treasure this time, this time I want to see how long the Yuwen valve can be beautiful." ”

Dugu Sheng smiled when he heard this, obviously very proud.

In a hall next to Wangjiang Terrace, Jiang Shaofeng and Xu Ziling stayed in it for two hours, and when the sun was about to go down, they still didn't see Yu Shiji or Dugu Sheng come to lead them to see Yang Guang.

Xu Ziling was a little bored, and it was difficult to sit still, but Jiang Shaofeng was very calm, sitting cross-legged and pranayama, not wasting a trace of time, and the water grinding kung fu generally improved his cultivation skills.

The temple was guarded on all sides by guards, and the two informers were kept in the temple like prisoners.
