Horse on the World

Chapter 743 Death
Yushu Street is very famous in Ningzhou City. It’s not that there are high-ranking officials and beauties living here, but that this street gathers almost all the famous southern snacks. All kinds of scents tempt passers-by to stop and watch, and almost all the shops are full of people.This is one of the busiest places in Ningzhou City.

Chenji Tofu Shop is located in the middle of Yushu Street. Like all the stores on Yushu Street, it looks small, but it is very deep. The front is doing business, and the back is a workshop for making various bean products.Chenji Tofu produces all kinds of soy products with unique flavors, especially his stewed products, which are unique and sold all over the south.Only the old Ningzhou people will know that the best thing in Chenji Tofu Shop is the tofu curd that comes out of the first pot every morning. If you get up early enough, drive fast enough, and are lucky enough, you can have When it was just shining, drink a bowl of bean curd here, and you really understand the uniqueness of Chen Kee Tofu Square.It's just that there are too few such people, because each pot of bean curd is not much, and a part of the palace has to be specially provided, because King Ning likes this one.Every morning when the bean curd is just out of the pot, there are already guards from the palace waiting outside the store, driving a carriage, and the steaming bean curd is served out in a special soup, and then boarded the carriage, which has a small charcoal stove A master chef from a tofu shop sat in the car, using a small charcoal stove to continue heating the bean curd, while adding some special seasonings at the right time, and drove all the way to the palace. good.And at this time, it was time for King Ning to get up and wash up, and sit on the table to start eating breakfast.

The owner of Chenji Tofu Shop, Chen Wanping, is in his fifties this year. He has a family in Ningzhou City. One son inherited the ancestral business and runs a tofu shop. Now he is also the father of two children, but his daughter is married to Ningzhou. A small official in the city is handling paperwork in the government office of Ningzhou, and it's time for the children under his knees to have fun in the streets.

Such a family is very successful in the eyes of outsiders. It not only has no worries about food and clothing, but also has a rich life, and is even related to the palace. It turned out to be the nail that Mrs. Li buried in Dingzhou many years ago.

Chen Wanping's surname is not Chen, but his surname is Li, a distant branch of the Li clan.It was precisely because of this that Qingfeng dared to sneak into Ningzhou unsuspecting, found Chen Wanping, and activated this stronghold that had been seldom used for decades.

"Uncle Li, have you found the exact location?" Qingfeng's wooden branch skirt looked a little pale. Ever since she arrived in Ningzhou, she had been hiding in the secret room of Chenji Tofu Shop, directing her subordinates to search for the exact location where Li Zonghua was imprisoned. .Li Wanping belonged to the Li clan, and in terms of seniority, he was a generation older than Li Qing, so Qingfeng politely called him Uncle Li.

Li Wanping's face was wrinkled, perhaps because he had been in the enemy's den for a long time and was frightened. His face looked older than his actual age.At this moment, he was holding a tray with both hands, on which were three bowls of bean curd, several dishes of stewed food, and a jug of wine. He put these things on the table, and he himself sat opposite Qingfeng.

In terms of position, Li Wanping is now the number one person in the Dingzhou Supervisory Council stationed in the south, and Qingfeng is his immediate boss, but because he is a relative of Li's clan, and he doesn't have much direct contact with Qingfeng, he appears extremely in front of Qingfeng. It's free and easy, after listening to Qingfeng's words, he was not in a hurry to answer, but pointed to the bean curd, and said: "It just came out, the principal should try it first!"

Xia Xue on the side stretched out her hand to pick up a bowl of bean curd from the tray, and the moment she turned around and handed it to Qingfeng, a silver needle appeared in her hand. Nod slightly.

Qingfeng smiled and ate the tofu curd in small bites, while admiring unceasingly.Qingfeng respected this veteran spy who had been in the enemy's possession for decades.Especially Li Wanping has such a special status as a clan member of the Li family.

"Ever since I found out that Zong Hua was missing and might have been robbed by Zhong Ziqi, I have been trying to find out!" Chen Wanping picked up a knife and a pair of chopsticks in the tray, and carefully removed the dried tofu on the plate. Cut into small pieces and serve slowly. "The dean also knows that Zhong Ziqi is a difficult opponent. In order not to expose our whereabouts, we had to be careful. It was not until recently that we finally had a clue. Although I dare not say that I am [-]% sure, But there are always [-]% or [-]%, Zong Hua must be locked there!"

"Where?" Qingfeng's eyes flickered, and the spoon was suspended in the air without moving.

Li Wanping paused, and said: "Principal, the place where Zong Hua was imprisoned was heavily guarded, and it was extremely difficult to rescue him. Even if he took a forced action, it would only increase the casualties and not help the matter. We have limited manpower in the south, so we really can't." Incorporate the entire southern network for one person! I'm afraid even Zong Hua himself would never be willing."

Qingfeng smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Li, there is no need to use Southern Network personnel for this operation. You and your subordinates only need to find out where Dean Zong Hua is being held and the details of the security. If there is a map, That would be even better. As for the action, the people I bring will do it."

Li Wanping shook his head, "I don't feel sorry for my subordinates. No matter what kind of manpower is used, this is the essence of our Overwatch Council. Is it worth it?"

Qingfeng stood up, took a few steps back and forth in the room, and said: "President Zong Hua has an extraordinary identity. He is the core figure of the Li family and the president of our Overwatch Council. He was captured alive and imprisoned here. Not only is it a disgrace to our Overwatch Council, it is also a disgrace to the Li family, and a disgrace to the entire Dingzhou Group. Since the rise of the army in Dingzhou, not to mention a high-ranking person like Dean Zong Hua, it is a person with a little bit of status , and this has never happened before, how can we sit idly by? Even if we have to pay a certain price, I will rescue him."

Li Wanping was silent for a moment, and took out a roll of paper from his arms, "This is a detailed map of that place, Dean, please forgive me, the possibility of a successful rescue is not very high, if it was simple, we would have already It has been done, and you don’t bring many people, how can it be done?”

Qingfeng smiled sweetly, "There are not many people, but the essence. The people I brought this time are from the old industry. They are the real elites in the Overwatch Council. They have never failed in their actions. As long as they plan carefully, Taking all the possibilities into consideration, success is not impossible."

Seeing that Qingfeng is full of confidence, and Li Wanping has never been in Dingzhou, but he is familiar with the deeds of this delicate supervisory dean. Seeing that she has made up her mind, it is inconvenient to say more now.He just said: "If you are rescued, there is still a bigger problem waiting for you, and that is how to transport it out?"

Let out a long breath, "We can predict that once the rescue operation succeeds, the whole city of Ningzhou City will be closed, and once you make a move, it is not difficult for Zhong Ziqi to guess who is in charge of this operation based on the traces of your hands Yes. If he guesses that you may have arrived in Dingzhou City, he will dig you three feet and find you out. If he traps you, wouldn't it make us more..." Li Wanping didn't say the last words, But the meaning was already very clear. Rescuing Li Zonghua and trapping Qingfeng would not be worth the loss, and it would even make Dingzhou even more embarrassing, because Qingfeng's identity was there!

Qing style smiled, "Uncle Li, don't worry, I have thought about this level. Before I act, I will leave early. I went outside the city of Ningzhou to wait for Dean Zong Hua to return. Zhong Ziqi wanted to catch me , but it's unthinkable."

"Besides, I have already planned how Dean Zong Hua will leave Ningzhou City. You just need to cooperate when the time comes. Dean Zong Hua will be brought to you as soon as he is out of trouble. After hiding for a few days, someone will come and take him away."

Li Wanping asked suspiciously, "Who is capable of taking Zong Hua out of the city?"

Qingfeng smiled and picked up the bowl, finished the bean curd, and said with a smile: "You will know when the time comes."

Li Wanping nodded. He is an old man in this industry. If he sees Qingfeng, he will not talk about it, and he will not deliberately inquire again. Never ask what should not be asked. This is the iron law of this industry.To be honest, in his heart, he also wanted to witness the dean's splendor with his own eyes.The statistics and investigation department's great reputation was created by this charming woman in front of him, but he had only heard about it and never seen it himself.

Putting away the blueprints on the table, Qingfeng did not discuss with Li Wanping how to rescue them at all, but changed the topic away.

"Uncle Li, you have stayed in the South for decades, but have you ever thought about your family and your family?"

The wrinkles on Li Wanping's face suddenly became deeper.After being silent for a while, he said: "It would be a lie to say that I don't want to. When I left Yizhou, I was still a young man in his twenties. I stayed here for decades and never went back to Yizhou. The relatives over there, my parents passed away one after another, but I could only quietly burn a stick of incense in the middle of the night, cry in a low voice, but in the daytime I forced a smile on my face, greeted and sent them off, hey, sometimes when I think about it, I don’t know How did these decades come here!"

Qingfeng knew that long-term lurking spies like Li Wanping suffered the most from longing for their homeland and relatives. Li Wanping was not the only one who was arranged by the Li family in the south, but he was the only one who could really persevere until the end. one already.

"Uncle Li is now full of children and grandchildren, and he has taken root in the south." Qingfeng said: "Do your children know their true identities?"

"This kind of life is really sad. I don't want my children to be frightened too, but they don't know it at all." Li Wanping said bitterly. "A pair of sons and daughters, I always thought they were native Ningzhou people. You have also met my son. There is still a little shadow of our Yizhou people in him?"

Qingfeng sighed: "Uncle Li sacrificed too much for the clan. After the general defeats King Ning and sweeps the world, you will get rewards that match your efforts."

Li Wanping said with a smile: "I am very gratified that my family is born in Tenglong. If my Li family really has the day to rule the world, I will die with peace in my eyes. Moreover, it will allow my descendants to live a peaceful and peaceful life, which is my last. I hope, as for the repayment, I am originally from the Li family, and it is only natural to bow to the Li family, so why talk about repaying or not repaying?"
