Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 70 The Secret Agent

Chapter 70 The Secret Agent
Before Gao Cheng entered the Bohai Palace, the gatekeeper reminded him that Gao Aocao and Gao Jishi were waiting in the lobby of the palace.

It must have been reported after waking up, saying that he had visited the house, presumably Gao Jishi had brought him here.

If Gao Aocao understood these ways of the world, he would not be so aggrieved by death.

So, being with the right person is more important than anything else, Gao Jishi, this little reckless man, has only been with him for a long time, and he actually understands some principles of human communication.

Gao Cheng hurried in, and Gao Huan, who came back from the Prime Minister's Mansion, was receiving him in the lobby.

"Ah Hui is back, let's talk about it, I'll go back to the house alone to rest."

Gao Huan naturally knew that his good son wanted to get in touch with Gao Aocao, so he said something with a smile, and was escorted out of the lobby by Gao Cheng and others, and went to the backyard.

"Third Uncle, I haven't seen you for several months, but I miss Ah Hui so much."

As soon as Gao Cheng grasped Gao Aocao's hand, he acted very affectionately, and even called himself by the baby name Ah Hui.

Gao Aocao's face darkened. The last time we met in Yecheng, he was talking about General Gao. Now he became the third uncle again.

He couldn't bear this title, Gao Aocao clearly remembered the last time Gao Cheng called him third uncle, and immediately pried Chen Yuankang away from his mansion.

"Your Majesty, don't do this. Ao Cao is a warrior, and he only knows how to obey military orders. Since he belongs to His Majesty, he must do his best to fight for His Majesty."

Gao Aocao said in a blunt tone.

Gao Cheng wasn't annoyed either, this person was so blind, he couldn't just stop opening the door for Gao Aocao because he refused to show kindness.

After being seated and having a few homely conversations with Gao Aocao, Gao Cheng finally got down to business:
"Tomorrow, I would like to ask General Gao to return to Jizhou first, and bring the family members of the soldiers before heading to Luoyang."

In these words, he also explained to Yaoxiong that since he is the garrison of Gyeonggi, he will naturally be stationed around Luoyang. If his family members are far away in Hebei, how can they guarantee morale.

This is a truth that even Er Zhuzhao understands, otherwise he wouldn't have given the trilogy a holiday on New Year's Day.

Of course, the result was not very good. Dou Tai ran for three hundred miles day and night, and Er Zhuzhao had no time to re-mobilize the demobilized troops, and finally died in the desperate situation.

It must be known that in the Battle of Han Ling, Murong Shaozong gathered his troops and retreated calmly, and Er Zhuzhao even looted and left without fighting in the Battle of Jinyang. still exists.

Gao Huan waited for half a year in Jinyang, and used four half-way marches to let Er Zhuzhao relax his vigilance, so that he could easily win Xiurongchuan, and also controlled 20 Xianbei in Jinyang by absorbing Erzhuzhao's Qihu trilogy , Qihu and other Hu army.

This is also the most important reason why Gao Huan trusts Gao Cheng with the 3-strong Gyeonggi Legion, and it is also the reason why he has the confidence to abolish the various platforms.

Gao Ao Cao has been in the army for a long time, so of course he understood what Gao Cheng meant. After he promised, he said:
"I also ask the son to arrange the family members of the trilogy well."

"I wrote to Yang Min yesterday to ask him to make preparations in Luoyang."

This time going north to Jinyang, among the staff Gao Cheng only brought Cui Jishu and the newly promoted Zhao Yanshen.

Zhao Yanshen found out that the officials had pretended to be Ren Ren, and he made great contributions in assisting Chen, Yang, and Cui in reviewing the papers, and was promoted by Gao Cheng to be an aide.

The day before yesterday, after Gao Cheng was appointed the governor of Gyeonggi, he immediately appointed Zhao Yanshen to join the military as the secretary office of the governor's office and was in charge of clerical work. Out of the category of petty officials.

The two talked in detail again, and then Gao Aocao left. Before leaving, he did not forget to take a few days off for Gao Jishi, and followed him back to Hebei to move to the families of the soldiers.

Gao Cheng has nothing to do, and he has known Gao Aocao for two years, and he has never heard him mention his son, but Gao Jishi, the younger brother, is often talked about.

I don't know whether Gao Aocao's son called Gao Jishi the fourth uncle or the eldest brother, which is outrageous.

Gao Cheng was not the only one who felt outrageous, but also Duan Shao.

Duan Shao is different from Gao Aocao, Yaoxiong and others. His [-] plays were all assigned to the Six Towns of Xianbei by Gao Huan, and his family was moved to Jinyang by Gao Huan early on.

Therefore, after learning that he would follow Gao Cheng to guard Luoyang, he immediately mobilized the family members of the soldiers, only waiting to go south with Gao Cheng tomorrow.

After finishing the military affairs, Duan Shao heard that Gao Cheng was visiting the general who was going south, so he waited in the mansion all the time, but he never expected Gao Cheng to come.

In the end, Gao Cheng was notified that Gao Cheng came out of Yaoxiong's mansion and went straight back to the Bohai Palace, Duan Shao finally couldn't sit still, and cooperating with his cousin never thought of going to his own mansion at all.

"Why does Ah Hui despise me!"

Duan Shao, who came to Bohai Palace, seemed to have been greatly wronged, and he wanted to ask what happened when they met.

Gao Cheng didn't understand why, so he asked:
"Have I ever underestimated you?"

"You discussed with Murong Shaozong, Yaoxiong, and Gao Aocao about going south today, why did you ignore me?"

Duan Shao complained.

Gao Cheng couldn't help smiling when he heard the words:

"I'm just worried that these people don't obey my order, they just win over them in advance. What kind of relationship is there between us, and I still need to come to the door to show you how good I am?"

"It's really just to win over?"

Duan Shao is skeptical, he knows his cousin's ability to talk nonsense when he sees people, and he knows it too well.

Gao Cheng said angrily:
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Mingyue."

Duan Shao caught a glimpse of Hu Luguang with a sneer on his face, annoyed in his heart, and deliberately said:

"Isn't it inconvenient to visit Zihui's family at such a late hour?"

Hu Luguang's face froze, he didn't know that Duan Shao was deliberately mocking his appearance, and immediately started arguing with Duan Shao.

Gao Cheng was annoyed by their disturbance and sent them both away.

These two enemies didn't deal with each other when they were sixteen or seventeen years old, but now they are almost twenty, and they still have to quarrel before they can say a few words.

Luoyang.

Zheng Quan, as a secret agent hidden in Hu Sichun's mansion, has sold himself as a slave for more than half a year.

He showed others with a diligent and down-to-earth image, never cheating or playing tricks, but he was never appreciated, which made Zheng Quan extremely anxious.

Gao Cheng made it clear when he listened to the selection of secret agents by the Department of Public Security. After five years of lurking, he can be promoted through hard work and apply to be transferred to an official position. After five years, if he chooses to lie late for a long time, his heirs will be reused.

Zheng Quan didn't want to live for five years. If they came from such a poor background, if they wanted to get ahead, they had to find a big contribution.

But if you can't get close to Hu Sichun, how can you get the confidential information.

However, the opportunity came so suddenly. When it was getting dark, he and a group of strong servants in the mansion were gathered together and transferred to a manor outside the city.

In this manor, he not only met Hu Sichun, but also found a sensitive person, Yang Kuan, who was born in the Hongnong Yang family.

The reason why Zheng Quan knew Yang Kuan was that he was one of the few remaining relatives of Gaocheng shogunate Shi Yangmin. The two had a close relationship and often communicated with each other. Zheng Quan had seen him from afar.

Why did Yang Kuan appear here?Is there no conspiracy?Or maybe Yang Changshi colluded with Hu Sichun?
Zheng Quan was frightened by his own imagination. He wanted to find an opportunity to pass the news, but found that the manor was heavily guarded and entry and exit were strictly prohibited, and he couldn't think of a way out for the time being.

Early the next morning, Zheng Quan and the others gathered in the open area of ​​the manor. He found that there were not only servants from Husi Mansion. After questioning, he learned that some were from Qinghe Palace, some were from Nanyang Palace, and most of them were clan servants.

Suspicious, he saw Hu Sichun following a person respectfully.

The man shouted to the crowd:

"Gu is the son of heaven's biological father, Qinghe Wang Yuanqian. You will become the emperor's bodyguard under the name of the governor of the cabinet, you must practice hard, and you will have a future and prosperity."

Zheng Quan suddenly fell into a mixture of panic and excitement.

Excitedly, this news is far more important than Yang Kuan's appearance yesterday. Once it is passed back, he can even be promoted for meritorious service.

The panic was that after careful inventory, he found that there were 800 people in the venue.

Er Zhurong, who had power over the government and the public, led 800 cavalry to the south to Luoyang, but died at the hands of dozens of dead men, not to mention the [-] soldiers of the Son of Heaven.

There are too many things these people can do, which means that Yuan Quan doesn't need to ambush the dead like Emperor Xiaozhuang, and bother to trick Er Zhurong into the palace.

He can completely rely on these 800 people to attack and kill Lou Zhao with the emperor's edict and seize the military power of the imperial army.

Before Zheng Quan thought about how to deliver the message, he was taken to practice by the manor in charge.

"Thanks to Fashou's advice, I thought of secretly setting up the emperor's army for future preparations."

Yuan Quan thanked Hu Sichun.

Undoubtedly, this was Hu Sichun's idea again. After Gao Huan entered Luoyang, he was appointed as a servant, but it was a way of leaving the high position idle.

The reason why he forbears it is because he was deprived of his songs, and the relationship between Yuan Quan and Gao Huan was at a time when they were intimate.

Now that Gao Cheng went north to Jinyang, after being humiliated, the senior cadre lost his position as a servant and had no right to be a director, so he could only spend his days drinking in the mansion to relieve his worries.

In the huge city of Luoyang, apart from Lou Zhao, the commander of the imperial army, Gao Longzhi and Li Yuanzhong were the only two prominent figures left in the Gao clan.

Designing the removal of high-level cadres is exactly the certificate Hu Sichun presented to the clan. After all, he has made great contributions to Gao Huan's extermination of the Erzhu family.

Hu Sichun laughed and said:
"Your Majesty is absurd. The Husi family has been favored by the country for generations. They followed Gao Huan only to kill thieves for the country. I don't want Gao Huan to follow in the footsteps of Er Zhu's family. The wolf's ambition is clearly revealed. How can Chun sit back and watch the emperor bully him? .”

Yuan Quan snorted coldly when he heard the words:
"Gao Huan manipulated the appointment and dismissal of officials arbitrarily, and all the important positions were occupied by cronies. Li Yuanzhong went to Jinyang to express his condolences in place of the emperor as Tai Changqing. After returning, Gao Huan forced the emperor to grant Li Yuanzhong the post of servant. Offer rewards as you like, there will be no room for us in the future."

Many dissatisfaction was expressed in a joking tone. When Gao Huan invited Li Yuanzhong to a banquet that day, Li Yuanzhong joked that if he was not given the position of servant, he would go find someone to rebel.

On the surface, Gao Huan was laughing with Li Yuanzhong, but in fact he had already remembered it in his heart. When Li Yuanzhong returned to Luoyang, Gao Huan went up to the emperor and asked Li Yuanzhong to be promoted to servant.

Zheng Quan practiced in the manor outside the city for several days but could not find a chance to escape, and Chen Yuankang, who stayed in Luoyang to preside over the affairs of the hearing department, also realized that something was wrong.

Not only did Zheng Quan lose contact, but also the spies hiding in the palaces of King Qinghe, King Nanyang, and King Pingyang reported back, and each palace lost many healthy servants on the same day.

This made Chen Yuankang feel very troublesome, so he could only pass on the news to Gao Cheng on the one hand, and on the other hand continue to secretly search for the whereabouts of servants in various houses including Zheng Quan.

Yang Min once again received his relative Yang Kuan in the government affairs hall today.

The clan was slaughtered, and Yang Min, who was alone, regarded Yang Kuan as his family.

"Zunyan, I saw that the Chinese officials in the mansion are very busy today, but what happened?"

Yang Kuan asked.

Yang Min thought that it was not a secret that Gao Cheng served as the governor of Gyeonggi, so he told Yang Kuan all about receiving a letter from him and being busy arranging the family members of the soldiers.

Yang Kuan was terrified, he patiently talked to Yang Min a few more words, and left immediately.
