Chapter 345
Tang Xi's attention was attracted, and Wen Zhi sighed angrily, "It's not because of the Yu family."

After Yu Min died, all the descendants of the Yu family were killed, most of the powerful and capable people in the nine clans were dealt with, and all officials who had contact with the Yu family were also cleaned up, demoted or punished.

Logically speaking, the decline of the Yu family is a foregone conclusion, and it is impossible to turn around again.

But he never thought that a Yu Pei would appear out of nowhere.

This person is a bastard son of a non-existent offshoot of the Yu family. His father is the sheriff of the northwest frontier, and he has two older brothers.

When the power of the Yu family was wiped out, his father was executed and his two older brothers were exiled. He was also on the list of exiles, but he had the foresight to buy the messenger in advance, and he was able to live incognito.

Originally, if he had been living so silently, there was no need to chase after him, but this person was extremely ambitious, and under the name of the only blood of the Yu family, he began to contact the remaining forces of the Yu family.

The Yu family has taken root in Dayu for hundreds of years, and its forces are intertwined and spread throughout Dayu.

The two years of suppression had only wiped out Yu Min's influence in Shangjing, and Dayu had so many prefectures and counties that he hadn't had time to clean them up one by one.

Yu Pei took advantage of these influences to start making troubles everywhere.

First, they used the sympathy of the common people to fabricate stories, spread rumors, and instigate the common people to defend the Yu family against injustice, and then became arrogant, assembled troops, attacked some local government offices in counties and counties, and even hired some people from the rivers and lakes to lurk into the mansions of the county magistrates and county magistrates. Assassination, until now, there are already two people who have been succeeded by him.

As soon as Jian Chijin got the news of him, he sent the new Chancellor of Dali Temple, Pei Enqiong, to assist Gan Qi, the new commander of the imperial army, to capture them together, but only a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals were caught, and Yu Pei slipped away.

Afterwards, Pei Enqiong and Gan Qi rushed to nothing in succession. Yu Pei was like a loach. Not only did he not catch him back, but also boosted the morale of their group.

At this time, she was bored in the palace all day, so she proposed to meet the loach for a while.

She, the queen, should be the person the Yu family hates the most. She killed the most noble young master of the Yu family, robbed Yu Min in the last battle of Shoujun Pass and sent [-] shi of grain to Shoujun Pass, which indirectly promoted Yu's The demise of a line.

She made the bait herself, and it would be impossible for Yu Pei to slip away again.

So she and Jian Chijin acted in a scene, the empress feuded, and the empress left the palace in anger, and she chose the place where Yu Pei appeared recently - Lidu as a destination for relaxation.

The remnants of the Yu family will not let go of this excellent opportunity for revenge.

Sure enough, during the five-day journey from Shangjing to Lidu, she encountered more than [-] assassinations, especially the closer she got to Lidu, the more frequent the assassinations, which indirectly showed that Yu Pei was in Lidu .

"So you came here to buy news about Yu Pei?" Ren Sang said.

"Exactly."

In the past, when the Yongye Pavilion was still there, what news did she want to get, wouldn't that be within reach?But now it can't work, she still has to run around to buy news.

Ren Sang stood up, with the light behind her back, and her tall and straight figure instantly enveloped her, "Tonight, the vice-capital of Xushili is mainly holding a family banquet, you follow me."

Tang Xi looked up at him, frowning slightly, not understanding what he meant.

"Yu Pei has been living in the mansion of Vice Capital Qu Xieren recently."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Xi stood up suddenly, and walked decisively towards the stairs, "Let's go, time is running out."

It is now the three quarters of the unitary time, and it is not long before the time of lixu.

Ren Sang followed her downstairs, and the two went back to the inn first, Tang Xi changed into clothes, disguised as Ren Sang's servant, drove a carriage, and drove towards the vice capital's mansion.

On the way, Tang Xi learned from Ren Sang that the deputy capital, Qu Xieren, was a friend of Yu Pei's father, and he was able to sit in his current position only by connecting with Yu Pei's father.

Ren Sang's eyeliner at the deputy capital's mansion arranged in Lidu reported that Yu Pei came to Qu Xieren's mansion fifteen days ago and was treated courteously by Qu Xieren, who almost obeyed him.

The banquet held this time was also to win over some big shots for Yu Pei.

Ren Sang is one of the most important ones.

They didn't know where they learned that Ren Sang held an important position in the Palace of Everlasting.

If Ren Sang can be won over, it will be very convenient for their future actions.

And at this banquet, Yu Pei is very likely to show up.

As long as Tang Xi stays by Ren Sang's side, waits for an opportunity, and binds Yu Pei, it will be considered a success.

The entrance of the vice capital's mansion is already bustling with luxurious and luxurious carriages.

Lidu is an extremely wealthy capital city. As the deputy capital of Lidu, Qu Xieren can imagine how high his social status is. Many people couldn't get in the banquet held by him.

Tang Xi followed Ren Sang out of the carriage, bowed his head and respectfully followed behind him, holding a gift box in his hand, which was a gift for Qu Xieren.

Follow the servants in the mansion all the way forward, enter the courtyard, and Qu Xieren greets him.

"Young Master Ren is here, and Qu has lost his way and welcomes him. Forgive me." Qu Xieren clasped his fists with both hands, with a humble face.

The two of them greeted each other, and Tang Xi quietly raised her eyes to look at the deputy capital.

On Zhou Zheng's face, he had a neat beard, and there were faint wrinkles at the corners of his eyes when he smiled, making him look very generous and honest.

"This is a gift from me to the vice-capital master. Be careful, and the vice-capital master should not dislike you."

Ren Sang turned around to signal that Tang Xi understood, and handed the gift box in his arms to the young servant who was following Qu Xieren.

The smile lines in the corners of Qu Xieren's eyes deepened, and he brought a gift, which showed that the other party was also interested, and it would be much easier to discuss cooperation in the future.

"Young master, please."

Ren Sang did not give in, and followed his guidance to the banquet hall.

Tang Xi stood quietly behind Ren Sang, with his hands down and his head down, pouring him a cup of tea from time to time, earnestly acting like a good servant.

The silk and bamboo are melodious, the dancers are as graceful as butterflies, and the local wealthy and gentry exchange cups and laugh with each other.

Among the many people present, except for Qu Xieren, no one else knew Ren Sang, who had no name or distinction, so naturally no one would take the initiative to talk to him.

Ren Sang sat quietly in his seat, expressionless, calmly drinking cups of tea that Tang Xi served.

Tang Xi has been quietly looking around, looking for Yu Pei's face.

She has seen a portrait of Yu Pei, which is very different from his loach-like style. He has a handsome face, and looks like a scholar who would fall down when the wind blows.

It is said that the reason why he is not favored is that he is weak and unable to practice martial arts.

Tang Xi often wondered how such a person could escape from Gan Qi and Pei Enqiong again and again.

Looking around, Tang Xi couldn't find the figure he was looking for, so Tang Xi had to give up.

Wait, Yu Pei will definitely take the initiative to contact Ren Sang.
