Ling Xiao knew what he was thinking, but he just chuckled and didn't answer, although the shopkeeper was timid in his heart, but the fierce and vicious guests on weekdays were not uncommon, and he also got a tael of silver, and he was very happy in his heart, and said with a strong smile: "Two uncles, don't argue, it's not the small one, the small one will compensate you two" said and bent down and bowed.

Ling Xiao waved his hand, and the shopkeeper continued: "If you ask about others, the small ones may not know, but if you ask Lord Huang, the people of Ying Tianfu can be said to be unknown, and they can ask Brother Ren on the street at will, and they can also answer the questions of the two masters, but you two may be the first to visit the mansion, and it is not strange to know, Lord Huang's mansion is just two bends in the southeast of the Hanlin Mansion, it is very easy to find, if you two go to visit, the small one can also lead the way."

Although the shopkeeper talked a little more, he finally made it clear, and Ling Xiao said in his heart: "It seems that Lord Huang is very popular in the hearts of the people, even so, it will be easier to do..."

I'm afraid that the shopkeeper will guess the identities of the two in vain, which will lead him to the right and wrong: "There is no need to lead the way, Huang Zicheng is my distant uncle, I came to him from the north, and I don't know his address, so I have to inquire about it, and now I know that I will clean up and go to my uncle's house to visit."

The shopkeeper is a good and straightforward person, and when he heard that he is a relative of Lord Huang, he was very happy in his heart, and he felt that he could talk to his relatives and friends of Lord Huang, and his face was very bright, and he would become the capital to talk with his companions in the future.

Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "Don't blame, give a few side dishes to the guest room, retreat."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Okay, please go upstairs to rest for a while, and come later" Yan Bi smiled and retreated, and Zhang Luo went.

When the two returned to the room, Yue Hu didn't know the meaning of Ling Xiao's words, and as soon as he sat down, he asked Ling Xiao: "Brother Ling, I didn't expect you to be in the rivers and lakes, and there are relatives in the official family."

Ling Xiao heard the ridicule and said: "Brother Yue, it seems that such words are just sealed people's mouths, and they can't be done accurately, don't make fun of the little brother."

Yue Hu scratched his head and said: "I see, don't blame Brother Xian for being stupid" After a pause, he continued: "Then why, I asked about Huang Zicheng's mansion again."

Before he could say anything, he only heard a knock on the door, Ling Xiao saw that it was the shopkeeper who brought the food, and took it in, and the shopkeeper said a few polite words and withdrew with a smile.

The two of them were already empty in their stomachs, and when they saw the food, Yue Hu didn't have time to ask about anything else, so they devoured it.

The effort is not big, the dishes full of food have been eaten, Yue Hu wiped his mouth and said: "After tossing for a night, I am really hungry for a certain family."

Ling Xiao said: "Since this is the case, Brother Yue might as well make up for it, and we will discuss it tomorrow."

Yue Hu had no objections, got up and waved his sleeves and said, "It's okay, my eyelids can't be opened for a long time" As he spoke, he walked out of the door and went straight back to his room.

At sunset, night fell, the streets of Yingtianfu were full of people, and the crowd of traffic gradually dispersed, and then later, except for the occasional one or two government patrol teams, walking in a long line on the streets with neat steps, there was no half a figure.

After a while, I heard a sound of a short and fat old man in his fifties holding a wooden stick in one hand and a bamboo stick in the other, shouting: "The weather is dry, be careful of the fire candle"

As he was shouting, suddenly there was a gust of wind overhead, and when he looked up, he saw a shadow passing through the roof, as fast as lightning, and he didn't see what it was, and he fell to the ground in fright.

When the shock is undecided, rub your eyes and see, how can there be any shadow, blame yourself for being old and faint, missee for a while, muttering in my heart, and continue to shout more words.

In the southeast of Yingtianfu, a mansion that is not magnificent, the only thing that seems to be a little extraordinary, the gas is the lion with their heads on both sides of the mansion gate, and the two big characters "Huangfu" above the door number are the mansions of Hanlin Bachelor and Huang Zicheng.

In the silent night sky, a figure swept over the roof of the Yellow Mansion, and then jumped into the courtyard, revealing his figure, which was Ling Xiao who was exploring the Yellow Mansion at night.

His dark eyes scanned the room in the courtyard, and after a moment of darkness, he said secretly: "Strange, although he is famous, he is not so good."

The huge courtyard and dozens of houses, not only did not have a single family member, but not even a single servant could be seen, it was empty and silent, and it was impossible to see the residence of an official master at all.

Turning around and walking into the inner courtyard, after a few steps, he heard a woman's voice with resentment: "Master, it's getting late, let's rest, it's not too late to see tomorrow."

Immediately afterwards, I heard a man's voice, a slightly old man, sighed and said, "Madam, there are still some matters waiting for me to deal with, you go to bed first."

The woman knew that it was useless to say more, so she sighed and said, "Master, please take care of yourself, the concubine is gone" Then she saw a woman in plain clothes with her head and temples folded, and a black hairpin obliquely inserted.

You don't have to think about it to know that this woman is Huang Zicheng's house, and the slightly old voice in the house is Huang Zicheng himself.

Ling Xiao saw the woman, disappeared through the corridor, revealed her figure from the shadows, and walked towards the candle-lit room, before she wanted to buckle the door knocker and thought again: "No, although Huang Zicheng knows the general situation and is sinister, but I am a person from the rivers and lakes, and the Son of Heaven is just a grass man at his feet, and he can't recognize me, if I say the seriousness of the matter, it will be difficult to believe my words without evidence, so it is better to act according to the plan."

Thinking of this, he came out of the window, pointed his finger and pierced a small hole, and when he looked at it, he saw an elderly man in his fifties, and there was no one else in the room who was Huang Zicheng.

I saw that he was six feet tall, with black and white hair, a thin face, a tuft of goatee, and a coarse linen robe.

Huang Zicheng is a well-deserved minister, Taizu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang reigned, he was quite important, after Emperor Taizu died of illness, for the reduction of power Yan Wang, Huang Zicheng in front of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen, played a vital role.

Emperor Jianwen is even more to the respect of ten thousand times, to the title of Mr., (AD 1399) Li Jinglong "exterminated" defeated, the loss of soldiers will be hundreds of thousands, the king of Yan made a plan from the obstruction, bewitching Shengcong, at the same time under the oppression of the officials, removed Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai, who also did their best for the king of Yan.

But even so, Emperor Jianwen still trusted the two, and from time to time summoned the two into the palace to discuss the reduction of power, (1400 AD) in December last year, because the general Sheng Yong defeated the Yan army in Dongchang City.

This year (AD 1401) Jianwen Emperor only restored the original position of Huang and Qi, and today got the battle report, Hutuo River, has been captured, the Yan army is attacking the Jiahe, the defeat of the Jiahe defenders will be damaged at this time, and the fear of falling into the city is not far away.

How can he be loyal to the country, in the face of such a fiasco, as a civil official, he is helpless, at this time his face is haggard, worried, his heart is like a knife, looking at the books and letters placed in front of him, and he is worried. (It didn't take long for Jiahe to fall, and the poor companion was like a white tiger, and Huang and Qi were once again removed from their official positions).

In the fourth year of Jianwen (1402 AD), the Yan army gradually approached the capital, Emperor Jianwen sought to negotiate peace with Zhu Di, and the king of Yan has always been dissatisfied with Huang and Qi, as one of the conditions for peace, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai were sent to the field, but Emperor Jianwen still secretly ordered the two to recruit soldiers and horses.

Before the fall of Nanjing, Emperor Hui of the Ming Dynasty summoned Huang Zicheng back to Beijing, but he had not yet arrived in the capital, and he had to report that the capital had been lost, Huang Zicheng cried loudly, exclaiming, "Being a minister and not being able to serve the country is disloyal, but it is a pity that Huang Tian can't help it"

Later, Huang Zicheng conspired to continue to rebel against Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and his whereabouts were reported, so he was arrested. Zhu Di, the king of Yan, personally interrogated, Huang Zicheng resisted unyieldingly, and was brutal* to death.

Later, Huang Zicheng's bones were buried at the foot of Ma'anshan in Kunshan County (now Jiangsu Province); in the fifteenth year of Ming Zhengde (1520 AD), Huang Zicheng began to show snow. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, he pursued loyalty.

Later, someone inscribed a poem saying, "If the public festival is righteous and righteous, it will live up to the first class of the department." Chao's miscalculation is more painful to alleviate worries, and Jing Long's mistaken hatred is difficult to accept. Once the monarch and ministers were thin, and the different generations were steaming and tasting treachery and shame. The most sad is everywhere, and there are more than ten clans into the eyes. ”

At this time, Huang Zicheng's expression was all looked at by Ling Xiao outside the door, and he said secretly: "It seems that tonight is worth the trip" turned around and came to the door and knocked on the door.

I only heard Huang Zicheng in the house say: "Come in..."Ling Xiao didn't mean to see Huang Zicheng, so he stuffed the letter paper that had been prepared in the crack of the door, and hid it behind the wooden pillar.

Thinking that Huang Zicheng didn't see anyone enter the door, he was secretly surprised in his heart, there was not much time, and he heard the sound of footsteps, Huang Zicheng was very suspicious, and when he reached out to open the door, he saw a piece of paper falling to the ground, and he was even more puzzled in his heart.

Picking up the letterhead, he walked out of the door and looked around again, and saw that there was no one, so he closed the door and entered the room, spread the paper under the candlelight, and took a closer look.

I saw that it was written on the paper: "Anonymous worship, now the internal worries have not been solved, the external troubles have arrived, Su asked Lord Hanlin to have the ability to stabilize the country and the country, and now I have the news that the overseas people of Dongdao are plotting the world and are about to enter the Yellow Palace, please be prepared to take precautions"

Although there were only a few words, he confided earth-shattering news, Huang Zicheng was shocked and shouted towards the palace: "I have long said to the saint that foreigners should not be trusted, and now the internal and external troubles are coming, and the hearts of the ministers above the court cannot be united, and the country is bound to fall into the hands of others, how to be good, it is really a shame for the gift of the emperor."

Marveling at this, I remembered something, and went out to look left and right, except for the silent night sky, how could I see half a figure, this letter seemed to have been sandwiched between the cracks in the door for a long time.

Although he was surprised in his heart, he also knew that this matter was very important, and he could not delay, so he muttered: "No, now I can only meet the saint" As he spoke, he turned around and walked into the inner hall, and he didn't change his clothes in a short time, only to see him wearing a black gauze hat, wearing a purple and red robe, with a thin gold and jade waist, and his feet were pedaling Yunding boots, and he rode a big red horse out of the back door.

A woman behind him shouted: "My lord, where are you going at such a time?" Huang Zicheng immediately responded: "Enter the palace to face the saint, Madame should rest early" The voice had already drifted out of the distance.

Ling Xiao saw this scene in his eyes, and said in his heart: "With the assistance of such loyal people, it is expected to be fine, but listening to his words, it seems to know the existence of Dongying people, which seems quite strange, and now that he has fulfilled his benevolence and righteousness, it will be up to the palace to deal with it."
