After going out, Sun Jianteng also scolded and scolded, saying that the poor mountains and bad waters came out of the people, and the emperor of the mountain was far from lawless. Luo Yun said: "What emperor is far away, this is the emperor is near, and the boss of the Western Xia Kingdom lives here." Who told you to be greedy, don't say it anymore, it's annoying to hear. Sun Jianteng said: "If a meal of delicacies from the mountains and seas is not eaten in vain, I am not interested at all, this girl does not need money, then the meaning is completely different." Luo Yun said: "The girl doesn't need money, you don't have to think about it in this life, such a good thing, only I, Luo Yun, can encounter, and there are a lot of encounters." Sun Jianteng said: "I know that your kid has peach blossom luck, and compared with you, I have the heart to jump the Yellow River." Luo Yun said: "It just so happens that the Yellow River is nearby." ”

As he walked, Sun Jianteng suddenly said: "Luo Yun, you said that Senior Brother Kun Zheng who we want to save, could it be that he was imprisoned for the same reason as me?" Luo Yun said: "Impossible, how could Senior Brother Kun Zheng come to this place, besides, even if he really comes, he doesn't have enough money with him, and his sister-in-law can use the money to ransom people." Sun Jianteng said: "I'm afraid that Senior Brother Kun Zheng will see that it is free, so he brought a large group of brothers over to play, and finally won the ......" Luo Yun said: "Don't talk nonsense, Senior Brother Kun Zheng and Yihang are the same kind of people." Sun Jianteng said: "What's wrong with Yihang, he and I don't go to visit the Qinglou." ”

Back at the inn, the two lay on the bed and discussed what to do. Luo Yun said: "Thinking about it, Siyun can't think of a good way, let's ask again tomorrow, we have to arrest some well-dressed people to ask." ”

On the second day, the two of them were busy for most of the day, but there was still no effect, Sun Jianteng said: "According to the current situation, Senior Brother Kun Zheng and sister-in-law are either the lowest figures, or the highest level figures, and the people have never heard of them. Luo Yun took the letter and looked at it again, saw that the handwriting was fresh and beautiful, and said: "Brother Sun, you are right, isn't this Xixia country all in Xixia script, sister-in-law uses small block letters to write letters, how can people in the low-level of the Xixia country write, they can write, they can only write in Xixia script, how can they write such beautiful small block characters?" Sun Jianteng said: "Then Wanzhi's sister-in-law must be a lady of all people, Miss Qianjin?" Luo Yun said: "Yes, Senior Brother Kunzheng's courage and talent are one level higher than all of us, and he can win the favor of the noble lady." Sun Jianteng said: "Then we can have a target and ask the rich gentry of the big officials." ”

The two discussed for a while, each bought a beautiful outfit, took two folding fans in their hands, wandered on the street, and stopped to talk when they met a beautiful one, although everyone was willing to talk to them, but still no one had to say the names of Liu Kunzheng and Wanzhi, and the two couldn't help but hang their heads and sigh for a long time. Walking to the sunset West Mountain, I saw a large family of eunuchs holding a grand banquet, the guests who came and went were either with big bellies, or fat heads and big ears, and the female dependents were gorgeously dressed and had good faces. The greeter only said that they were also congratulatory guests, greeted people with a smile, and said, "Please come in, serve tea." Stepping into the hall, I could only hear the noise of people, and more than 300 people sat in different places, talking and laughing separately.

The two of them must have thought in their hearts: "There are so many people here, no one will come to pay attention to us, you can eat and drink together, as long as you sit down seriously and don't cause trouble." I sat down at a large table at the edge of the hall, and soon a family member brought tea, pastries, and hot towels. The two of them looked around, and saw that the family was luxuriously decorated, and even the servants were wearing expensive silk clothes, Luo Yun said: "Either big officials and ministers, or relatives of the emperor, it is a good opportunity for us to listen." ”

The two began to chat with the guests around them, and knew that the owner of this house was called Li Ninglingge, who was actually the son of Li Yuanhao of today's Western Xia Kingdom, and the current prince. Both of them were taken aback, and secretly entered the prince's mansion, and the guests asked who they were, Luo Yun said: "We are both good friends of the prince." Seeing that they were graceful and luxurious, elegant in temperament, and good in conversation, the guests at the same table believed that they were true, and Luo Yun said to a man named Yeli Wanwan: "The prince held a grand banquet today, and there were so many guests. Yeli said: "Of course, the prince invited the ministers, please dare not appreciate your face." Luo Yun chatted with him for a while, and helped pretend to show him his appearance, saying that he had prosperous official fortune and good fortune, and he only needed to follow the prince closely in the future, and he would have endless glory and wealth. Ye Li Wan was very happy, and thanked him without a word, Sun Jianteng said: "As the prince's staff, we often go to various places to find talents to recommend, and talents like you are really rare. ”

Ye Li Wanwan heard this, his ears were red and his heart was hot, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Then I have to ask the two brothers to recommend more in front of the prince, and my brother will be prosperous in the future, and he will definitely not forget you." Luo Yun said: "Of course, we are meritocracy, as long as you have real skills, it is a piece of real gold, you will definitely be able to shine." So, I'll take a test first and see if you're just looking good or if you're really talented. Ye Li Wanwan hesitated a little and said, "This, this ......"

Sun Jianteng said: "It's okay, just answer as much as you can, this is just a preliminary assessment." After speaking, he dipped his fingers in the tea and wrote the words "Liu Kunzheng" on the table. "It's a Han name." Sun Jianteng said: "How much do you know about him, please tell me." Yeli shook his head and said, "I don't know." Luo Yunti pointed to the word "Wanzhi" written on the table, and when Ye Li saw it, he whispered: "Wei Mu Wanzhi!" When the two of them heard it, they were overjoyed, and finally someone recognized her. Luo Yun remained silent, nodded slightly, and motioned for him to continue.

Ye Li Wan glanced left and right, the banquet had not yet begun, buried his head and whispered: "The cousin of the current emperor, the sister of the former queen!" The two were silent, and they were amazed in their hearts that Kun Zheng climbed the high branch, and Ye Li Wanwan continued: "Wei Mu Wanzhi's father is Wei Mu Shanxi, and her sister Wei Mu Fen is the queen." Wei Mu Shanxi's sister Wei Mu Shuangyang is the emperor's mother, that is, the queen mother. Luo Yun and Sun Jianteng couldn't understand it, so they had to smile and nod their heads to show encouragement, and secretly said in their hearts: "What the hell is this and that, why is it so complicated?"

Yeli took a sip and said: "More than ten years ago, the emperor killed Wei Mu Shanxi's family, just because Wei Mu Shanxi, that is, the emperor's own uncle, used the Empress Dowager Wei Mu as a backer to compete for the supreme ruling power, tried to rebel, and plotted to kill the emperor. After the conspiracy was revealed, the emperor not only killed Shanxi, but also tied the entire Wei Mu clan to a stone and sank it to the bottom of the Yellow River. After exterminating the Wei Mu clan, the emperor came to his mother's Wei Mu family's bedroom with poisonous wine in his hand. Kneeling on the ground and declaring: 'The law of the land is intolerable, and it is difficult to fulfill filial piety. The Queen Mother looked at her own son with tears in her eyes, took the poisoned wine and drank it all. After the death of the Empress Dowager, the emperor reburied her in the name of her unfortunate death. Later, he posthumously named his mother 'Queen Hui Ci Dunai'. ”

After Empress Wei Mu, that is, Wei Mu Holland learned of this, she scolded and questioned the emperor, and the emperor was furious. Empress Wei Mu was imprisoned because she was pregnant with Liujia, and later the queen gave birth to a son. The emperor's favorite concubine, Ye Lishi, that is, the later Empress Xiancheng, in order to compete for the queen's position, said that the child did not look like the emperor. So the emperor killed the queen's mother and son in a fit of rage. ”

Luo Yun and Sun Jianteng couldn't help but swallow their saliva, the current emperor can even poison his mother, wife, son, uncle and cousins, it is indeed too unexpected, very capable. Luo Yun snorted and said, "Very good, very good, Brother Yeli is very knowledgeable and extraordinary, and he is indeed a material that can be made." Sun Jianteng said: "That Wei Mu Wanzhi, where is she, do you know?" Ye Li said: "It should have sunk into the river and drowned more than ten years ago." Sun Jianteng said: "No, she is still alive." Guess where she is, if you guess right, you will be the future prime minister. ”

Ye Liwan's eyes shone even brighter, and he said in a low voice: "If she didn't die, she would definitely hide, as for hiding there, I really don't know." It is possible that she was protected by her father's old subordinates. Luo Yun gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Yeli is really amazing, just a little bit." Now you just need to talk about Shanxi's old subordinates, and then you will pass the assessment. Yeli Wanwan lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said the names of a few people, and Luo Yun and Sun Jianteng memorized it by heart.

At this time, the banquet began, the two were unceremonious, eating and drinking, the people at the same table kept toasting the two of them in order to compliment them, Luo Yun and Sun Jianteng held hands with them and patted their shoulders and called them brothers, and they quickly became acquainted.

More than half of the banquet, after three rounds of wine, there was a sudden commotion on the main seat in the hall, it turned out that the crown prince Ning Lingge and the crown princess did not move out to toast everyone together, and all the people who were toasted stood up and drank, and the atmosphere was warm. When the prince and his wife came to Luo Yun's table, their eyes were wide, and their eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets. The two pretended to have known the prince for a long time, and said some words of congratulations and blessings, but they spoke to the prince in their mouths, but their eyes were looking at the princess, and the princess was stared at by the two people who were confused, blushed, lowered her head, and raised her head from time to time to peek at the two.

Brother Ning Lingge was drunk in a daze, noticed this detail, and took his wife to the next table. Suddenly, in the hall near the door, everyone knelt down with a brush, shouting long live the emperor, long live long live, Luo Sun and the two looked over there, only to see a group of people walk into the hall, the first person had a round face, with a beard, under the blazing eyes, the eagle hooked nose and shrugged, resolute with a bit of awe-inspiring and inviolable demeanor, medium stature, but looked burly and majestic, domineering, he was wearing a yellow robe, wearing a crown, it was the current Western Xia king Li Yuanhao, everyone in the hall saw clearly, when they quieted down, they all knelt down and shouted long live, Sun Luo and the two inevitably knelt down。
