Jinyi Night Walk

The next day, Xia Xun rushed to the Jinyiwei yamen to get the letter from Guan Fang and Luo Qian, and went to the inn where Xie Jin stayed. Xie Jin was very drunk yesterday and woke up late at this time, sitting Eat porridge in the store.He was very short, only about 1.6 meters tall, and he was sitting in the backlight of the corner. If Xia Xun hadn't always entered the door and observed places that didn't attract attention, it would have been really difficult to see him.

Xia Xun didn't let him find him, so he observed him quietly, and saw that the talented man looked calm, as if his heart had been resolved, so he smiled broadly, refused the clerk's offer to give up his seat, turned around and walked out, Get on the horse and go straight to Xiaoling.

When Xia Xun arrived at Xiaoling, the warm sun had already covered the ground. Occasionally, some veterans of the Xiaoling Guard who were on patrol found a man in ordinary clothes galloping wildly in Xiaoling Guard, acting like a flying sheep on his horse, excited Rushing up to meet him, raising his gun to stop him, he saw an ivory badge showing in Xia Xun's palm, so he spat unluckily and continued to guard in dismay.

Entering the inner circle of Xiaoling Guard, the defenses were not as strict as the outer circle. When they arrived at the place where the officers and soldiers of Xiaoling Guard were stationed, Xia Xun got off his horse and found an official to ask where Xiao Qianyue was. Yubi approved the promotion to one level, even though Xia Xun is not dead, it is hard to take back his life, not to mention there is a big event for him to do, it is just a means of kindness.

The official is just a small flag, seeing that the Shangguan has arrived, he is still polite, but the grave guards are the grave guards, and there is no big future in this life, not only they have to guard the grave, but their children and grandchildren will inherit the father's position They have to guard the grave, they have no ambitions in their official career, and they are lazy in everything they do. Although they are polite to Xia Xun, they can't raise their spirits to work for him. They just point out the place for him and walk away listlessly. opened.

Xia Xun walked for a while in the direction pointed by the small flag, and there was another military camp. Xia Xun was about to ask someone again, when he saw Xiao Qianyue.Xiao Qianyue squatted on a dirt bag, staring in the direction of Jinling in a daze.Usually, he pays the most attention to his appearance. Every time he sees him, he always dresses himself meticulously, and his hair is neatly combed. At this time, he has a lazy bun on his head. A set of half-new and not old short brown, squatting there with its neck facing the sky, like a toad watching the moon.

Can one person make such a big change in just a few days?

Xia Xun stopped in his tracks, and suddenly remembered what Luo Qianshi had told him solemnly before he left: "The emperor is eager to cut down the vassals. Originally, he didn't need confirmation. If he wanted to take them, he would just take them, but the king of Zhou is Empress Xiaoci Gao personally. The prince who was brought up was very strict in discipline since he was a child, and he followed the rules after he became a vassal. He has an excellent reputation among the vassals. It can be compared with him, if you do not teach him, it is really unreasonable, so when you go, no matter what, you must find a serious crime that can cut him off as a king."

"My lord, since the king of Zhou has always been famous, why choose him first."

"Confused, he is the fifth son of the emperor, and Zhu Di, the fourth son of the emperor, is a brother of the same mother. The relationship between the two brothers has always been the best. What the emperor is most worried about is that the two brothers will join hands to oppose the imperial court and want to cut Yan. Wang Armang, of course he was the first to take the knife. Remember, if this job is done, we Jinyiwei will have a bright future. I plan my life, and today is what I'm waiting for. If you ruin this important matter, No matter how many difficulties you have, how much credit you have made, I will definitely punish you severely!"

When he said this sentence, Luo Kedi, who had always been gentle and personable, twisted his face slightly, and looked a little ferocious, which showed how important this matter was to him.

Xiao Qianyue just acted arrogantly and spoke poorly, so she was relegated to Xiaoling by the adults, and her children and grandchildren will be the grave watchers forever. , I'm afraid it's worse than Xiao Qianyue...

Thinking of this, Xia Xun felt a chill in his heart. He took a long breath, and then called out: "Qianyue, Qianyue, Captain Xiao!"

After the third call, Xiao Qianyue, who was in a trance, woke up. She turned her head to look at Xia Xun, and was immediately overjoyed. Didn't your lord forgive my sins and tell me to go back? Did your lord ask you to come and pick me up?"

Xia Xun didn't speak, the smile on Xiao Qianyue's face slowly froze, and she said reluctantly, "Your Excellency... are you here to see me?"

Xia Xun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master Qianshi ordered me to go to Kaifeng on business, and I want you to go with me. This is an order. Let's go and see Commander Wei here."

Xiao Qianyue was overjoyed, grabbed the transfer order, held it in her arms, tears welled up in her eyes, and said excitedly: "I knew it, I knew it, my lord will not forget me, my lord will not be so cruel, My lord... my lord, Qianyue will never let you down again, I will never let you down again..."

Xia Xun shivered suddenly, and felt a bit chilly for no reason, Xiao Qianyue usually had a cool look, did he need to say such ruthless words?But after thinking about it, if I were reduced to such a point, not only would I have to be a grave watcher, but my son, grandson, and descendants of poor Daming I would all be confined here to guard the mausoleum. It was relieved.

Kaifeng in the Ming Dynasty, because it was established as Beijing by Zhu Yuanzhang, the repair of the city is more solid than many big cities, with 190 steps in [-] miles around, [-] feet and [-] feet high, [-] feet and [-] foot wide, and the moat is [-] foot deep and [-] feet wide. , All difficulties are clouded, standing tall and speaking, looking like a row of peaks, a strong city.Climbing the tower and looking from a distance, the Taihang pole room is actually in a few cases. The big river is just like a belt, which is magnificent.

Xia Xun and Xiao Qianyue entered the city from Nanyanmen. After entering the city, they found an inn in the Xufukeng area to stay, and then followed Luo Kedi's instructions to get in touch with Jin Yiwei's local secret agents. .This spy, like Ximenqing's father, was one of the first group of people who were dispatched by Jinyiwei to lurk in the local area. This time the action was related to the rise of Jinyiwei, so Luo Kedi used his staff without hesitation. Hidden strength.

The spy of Jinyiwei in Kaifeng was one of the first group of old people who sent Jinyiwei back then. He is over 60 years old, and his current public identity is the big shopkeeper of the famous Goulanyuan Hanmo Workshop in Kaifeng Prefecture. His name is Han Mo.

The Ming Dynasty inherited the Yuan Dynasty, and operas were very developed. At that time, the most prosperous places of Ming Dynasty singing and dancing operas were mainly concentrated in Jinling in the south, and Kaifeng in the north.Shopkeeper Han's mobile phone] look at oo}}.Goulan Courtyard is the largest theater in Kaifeng, where many famous opera and song and dance masters in the north are gathered here, and the music workshop is opened on Xufu Street.

Xufu Street is to the south of King Zhou’s Mansion, which is one of the most prosperous areas in Kaifeng. There are various workshops such as dyeing workshops, oil workshops, and mills, as well as grocery stores, pawn shops, hotels, jewelry shops, medicine shops, fungus shops, etc.Shanhuo Street not far away sells thick and thin summer fans shipped from Beijing, Hangzhou, Qinghai and Yangzhou.There are also tea shops, paper shops, silk shops, as well as letter-engraving, calligraphy, clothes making, lacquerware, bamboo and calligraphy and painting.

Three streets and six markets, strange vegetables, dense and endless.This forms the most prosperous area in Kaifeng.

Han Mo is a celebrity here, because he runs a singing and dancing studio, and has many contacts with people from all walks of life. He is well-informed and has a wide network of contacts. But because of this, there are many people who know him. After Xia Xun and Xiao Qianyue stayed in the inn, it was inconvenient Invite him to come, the two of them took a short break, then went straight to Hanmofang, asked for a private room, ordered a few drinks and food, handed the contact code to the shopkeeper Han through an unsuspecting clerk, and the two of them sat in the private room. Enjoy the beauties singing and dancing on the stage from time to time.

These maikos are seventeen or eighteen-year-old beauties with graceful appearance and slim figure. They sing and dance very seductively. The two of them drink tea, watch and wait there, and they are not too lonely.After a while, the door knocked, and Han Mo hurried in after receiving the signal from the two.

Han Mo is tall, with a slightly hunched back, but his spirit is extremely bright. He has a very ordinary face with a habitual smile.As soon as Xia Xun saw him coming, he immediately stood up, regardless of whether the old man had a higher or lower official position than him, just because the old man was ordered to lurk here, keep his name incognito all his life, and not contact his hometown and relatives. worthy of his respect.

Seeing Xia Xun standing up, Xiao Qianyue hurriedly stood up too. Ever since she was assigned to Xiaolingwei by Luo Qianshi, Xiao Qianyue has really restrained herself a lot, and she no longer dares to rely on Lord Luo's neighbors and boss her around. There is no one in sight.

Han Moshuang took the Jinyiwei waist card handed over by Xia Xun, and gently stroked it with trembling fingers, his expression trembled. After a long time, two muddy old tears fell on the waist card. He said to Xia Xun joyfully and bitterly: "It's been so many years, so many years. I thought I would wait here for the rest of my life, but I finally got it."

When he slowly raised his head again, Xia Xun was surprised to find that his temperament had changed. He was originally just a vulgar businessman's face, with no changes in his facial features, but when he stood there quietly, he suddenly became like a It is a treasured sword out of its sheath, with a murderous aura faintly revealed. This murderous aura is contained in it, and only someone like Xia Xun who has killed more than one person can feel it. In the eyes of others, Han Mo at this moment is just With tears in his eyes, he was just a little agitated old man.

Han Mo sighed: "Back then, Lord Luo sent me to Kaifeng. After so many years, I am already old. I heard that Lord Luo is now in charge of Jinyiwei?"

Xia Xun said: "Yes, Jinyiwei does not have a commander yet, all affairs are presided over by Luo Kedi Luo Qianshi."

"Luo Kedi, Luo Kedi..., yes, I remembered, Mr. Luo, his name is Luo Kedi. That time, Lord Luo brought him to the Yamen, when he was still a child... "

Han Mo suddenly woke up from his remembrance, and said a little embarrassedly: "Look at me, I am getting old, talking nonsense, and talking nonsense, I don't know what is the purpose of Master Xiaoluo sending two people here this time. Things need to be done by subordinates!"! .
