Chapter 66: Latent
Pang Feiyan, a woman who is very active and not quiet, is still a pregnant woman, and she actually learned medical skills from Jiang Tianda very seriously, and she learned it from scratch! Although she has been studying since she was a child, she has no foundation for medical Taoism, but she is very serious about learning, so serious that Hua Chong feels incredible.

Every day to endorse, roll, decoction, Jiang Tianda taught her not to teach from scratch, but to teach the symptoms, starting from Hua Chong's illness, Pang Ji was also willing to spend money, and the medicinal materials needed by their masters and apprentices were continuously transported to Hongze Lake from all over the country.
According to Jiang Tianda's command, Hua Chong used daily exercises to heal his wounds, took medicine on time, and it did work, and in three days, he could already go to the ground. Shang Junyi's side was more seriously injured than him, and he still couldn't go to the ground, and several other of the six heroes of Liaodong accompanied him, fortunately, with Pang Ji's money offensive, the medicine was sufficient, and it was only a matter of time before he recovered.
The first thing Hua Chong did after he could go to the ground was to find Shen Zhongyuan, along with Bai Jintang and Jiang Ping. Shen Zhongyuan has been under house arrest for the past few days, but he is very calm, he should eat and drink, and he doesn't care. The county lord of Caixia and Xu Chang are also, they are stuffy in the room every day and do not go out.
Seeing Hua Chong coming to him, Shen Zhongyuan was very happy, helped Hua Chong into the house and sat down, and said to Hua Chong: "Lord Hua's health has just improved, so he came to do business?"
Hua Chong said: "It's not all business, it's also a private matter." I would love to know everything that Mr. does. ”
Shen Zhongyuan looked at Jiang Ping and Bai Jintang: "These two are thugs and staff officers?"
Hua Chong didn't care about his sarcasm, and said bluntly: "That's right, I am powerless now, without Big Brother Bai to accompany me, I am afraid of death, and I am calculated by you everywhere, even if I add a fourth brother, I don't have the confidence to escape from your palm." ”
"Lord Hua praised it falsely. ”
"No, I'm just telling you the truth. ”
Shen Zhongyuan picked up the teacup and rushed towards the flowers: "Freshly brewed, the three of them will also taste it together." After that, he took a sip of tea and smacked lightly: "Ask, what do you want to know?"
"I want to know your status in the Imperial City Division!"
"I don't know, the Imperial City Division is a one-line connection, and my identity is the same as that of Zhihua. ”
"No, you're lying to me! Zhihua is also lying to me!"
Shen Zhongyuan was stunned: "How do you say this?"
"In Overlord Village, Zhihua appeared to protect you, everything is your plan! Including all the plans of Zhihua to destroy Overlord Village, it is also within your expectations!"
"And what am I for?"
"In order to trick Deng Che to Hongze Lake, and then you can catch them all!"
Shen Zhongyuan put down the teacup and applauded: "It's really worthy of Lord Hua, you actually figured it out?"
"You admit it?"
Shen Zhongyuan didn't respond, but stood up, put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice: "The holy decree received by the Imperial City Division is to cooperate with the school captain to wipe out the King of Xiangyang and his comrades!"
"You are indeed the head of the Imperial City Division!"
"I'm the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Division!"
"The Imperial City Envoy is Zhong Xiong?"
"That's right. ”
Hua Chong sighed: "If the King of Xiangyang knew that there were two Great Song spies among his important ministers, what would he think?"
"Of course, it's the same as the emperor's thoughts, and the emperor also sent me to go undercover before I learned that there were spies around me. ”
Hua Chong chuckled: "From this point of view, the emperor and the king of Xiangyang have similar practices." ”
Shen Zhongyuan shook his head and said: "It's different, the king of Xiangyang plans and then acts, and the emperor can't compare to the emperor who forbears and hibernates." However, the emperor's courage was not, but the king of Xiangyang did not. ”
"You know all about them?"
"Of course, my master is the emperor's personal guard!"
Hua Chong didn't expect it: "The nine-headed lion Gan Mao, who was famous in the past, was also the emperor's personal guard?"
"Can you guess how my master died?" Shen Zhongyuan asked as he looked at Hua Chong.
"Killed by the emperor!" Hua Chong didn't think about it, and said it directly.
"You guess?"
"Do you think the emperor will tell me?"
Shen Zhongyuan also admired Hua Chong a little at this time, and nodded towards Hua Chong: "You guessed right." ”
"Only by killing Gan Mao can you have a reason to take refuge in the King of Xiangyang without being suspected. "Hua Chong has been a criminal policeman, and he still has a certain understanding of insiders, undercover, and special services. What the emperor did was just a little more ruthless than the organization, and Hua Chong also had a certain understanding of the emperor, and he felt that this Emperor Renzong was not a soft-hearted person.
Shen Zhongyuan smiled bitterly: "It seems that you know the emperor very well. ”
"I know you better," Hua Chong interrupted him: "I guess this idea can only be used on you, using your master as a stepping stone, you can do this!"
Shen Zhongyuan did not refute: "You are right, I am a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve the end, otherwise the emperor would not let me come to the side of King Xiangyang, and I would not be able to achieve the position of a military advisor." ”
Hua Chong said: "In this case, I guess what you are trying to do will not be as simple as taking the king of Xiangyang, let's talk about you." ”
Shen Zhongyuan sat back in the chair, took another sip of tea that was a little cold, and said slowly: "I want to live, it's as simple as that, the emperor takes a fancy to my cleverness, and wants me to come to the side of the king of Xiangyang to go undercover, the emperor was only fifteen years old that year! You know, I was very scared, I thought I was very smart, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so gloomy at such a young age." When talking to him, I have always had an invisible pressure, like playing with a master, and I was suppressed by the other party's momentum before I could make a move. And from his words, I felt a ruthlessness and decisiveness!"
Hua Chong originally thought that they were sent out when they were in the previous dynasty Zhenzong, but they didn't expect that they were actually the people of the little emperor! Thinking that the emperor was only twenty years old this year, and he could have such a plan a few years ago, Hua Chong was even a little suspicious, this Emperor Renzong was also a traverser!
"So you came up with such an idea, using your master's life as an opportunity for you to get close to the king of Xiangyang?"
"My master was already seriously ill at that time, but as the emperor's personal guards, their identities were kept secret and no one knew. So no one knows whether he died of illness or was killed, even the king of Xiangyang only knew that I was a disciple of Gan Mao, and my master died in the palace. ”
"So you got close to the King of Xiangyang smoothly?"
"Yes, with my brain, how could the King of Xiangyang not use me when he hired people? Not to mention that I have made a great contribution to him!"
"Surrender Zhongxiong?"
"That's right, Zhong Xiong is another important chess piece of the emperor, in fact, your identity should have been his! Because of me, the emperor changed his original plan. ”
When Hua Chong heard this, a terrible thought came to his heart, and he said in surprise: "Could it be that all the people and horses of Dongting Lake are the emperor's people?"
Shen Zhongyuan looked at Hua Chong's surprised expression with great satisfaction and said: "I didn't expect it, Junshan Dongting Lake, with eight hundred miles of water and drought, and the owners of eight eight and sixty-four flood and drought camps are all spies from the Imperial City Division from all over the country!"
Hua Chong almost couldn't believe the result of this thunderous man: "Is the king of Xiangyang stupid?
Shen Zhongyuan wondered, "Don't you know the origin of the cottage of Dongting Lake?"
Hua Chong found that it was not the king of Xiangyang who was stupid, but himself, his face turned red, and he said to Shen Zhongyuan: "You continue to ......"
"Before Zhong Xiong, there were bandits in Dongting Lake, and the original owner of the village was Zhong Xiong's master and father-in-law 'Minghu Jade Mirror' Li Pingtao, Zhong Xiong was an all-round talent in literature and martial arts, and he didn't want to be partial to Dongting, so he participated in the scientific examination and tried his skills, but he didn't expect the Jinshi in the text, and the flowers in the martial arts, but he only got a waiter from the Ministry of Rites, and he couldn't be reused, so he resigned and returned to Dongting, put up a recruitment list, and pulled the flag to rebel!"
"Then it's no wonder they didn't find out the mystery, but then again, how many spies do you have in the Imperial City Division?"
Shen Zhongyuan said with a smile: "There are so many that you can't imagine that there are many people in the rivers and lakes who are spies of the government, not necessarily people from the Imperial City Division, but as long as the Imperial City Division uses them, they can become spies of the Imperial City Division at any time!"
Hua Chong was puzzled: "Why would they listen to the words of the Imperial City Division?"
Shen Zhongyuan took out a silver ingot from his arms and put it on the table, looking at Hua Chong. Hua Chong said slowly: "Money?"
With the big backer of the imperial court, they do not have to worry about eating and drinking, they are not afraid of the court suppressing bandits, and they are not afraid of the people of the rivers and lakes seeking revenge, and what they need to do is their best job -- betraying their friends! Why not?
Hua Chong nodded, understanding the mystery: "The more they want to make money, the more handles they have in your hands, and you are more at ease to use them?"
Shen Zhongyuan praised: "Lord Hua is very smart, once what they do is exposed, they will not be able to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, so they can only take refuge in the government and work hard for us! From ancient times to the present, whether it is the 'big who' of the Han Dynasty, the 'bad people' of the Tang Dynasty, or our 'Imperial City Division' all control the rivers and lakes in this way, as for the so-called 'martial arts holy land' of the three churches, it is just a decoration." ”
"What's the matter with the Caixia Monarch?Why would she help you fight against her father?" This was the only puzzle in Hua Chong's heart, and he couldn't figure it out anyway, why would Zhao Caixia help Shen Zhongyuan fight against his father together?
Shen Zhongyuan stared at Hua Chong with a smile, and said slowly: "It's better for you to ask the county lord in person about this matter." ”
