Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 215 They Will Send Someone to Watch
Li Junhao looked serious, and said: "I understand, from now on, as long as any suspicious person enters Kaifeng City, I will send someone to watch."

Ye Chen thought about it, since he came to this era, there are only four people who have had feuds with him, or really have enmity with him, namely Wang Yuefeng, Tao Gu, Lu Yuqing, and the county magistrate of Kaifeng County.This is why he has always been kind to others, never actively offends others, and is also very low-key, modest and prudent.

In fact, apart from the county magistrate of Kaifeng County, because Ye Chen wanted to vent his anger on Liu Nan's wife and daughter, and it happened that he needed to do something that a mortal with all kinds of emotions and desires should do for Zhao Kuangyin to see.That Tao Gu and Lu Yuqing ran into each other purely by himself.As for Wang Yuefeng, most of it was accidental, or Ye Chen did it unintentionally.

"Besides, the Southern Han Mission living in Honglu Temple, as well as Wang Yuefeng, Tao Gu and Lu Yuqing, including the county magistrate of Kaifeng County, have sent people to watch for twelve hours." Ye Chen's eyes flickered coldly , with a murderous intent in his heart, he said in a deep voice.

Although he is not a bloodthirsty person, let alone ruthless, if someone wants to harm him, he will naturally not sit still, and will pre-emptively kill the danger in a seedling state.

Of course, the Great Song Dynasty is considered a legal society after all, and at the feet of the emperor, he will never do such stupid things as breaking the rules, assassinating the ministers of the court and putting everyone in danger, sometimes killing a person, 'Wen Dou' It will be better than 'fighting'.

After Li Junhao left, Kou Zhun and Shui'er came in. Ye Chen knew that they had stood outside the door for a long time, and his conversation with Li Junhao must have fallen into their ears.

"Master! This alone is not enough. If the problem cannot be solved fundamentally, from now on, the Hou Mansion will never have peace. Even if the Southern Han Dynasty is destroyed, as long as the sky is not destroyed, and Chen Jingyuan is not dead, master, you will always be a hero in the world. The object of snatching." Kou Zhun said to Ye Chen, with a seriousness and unconcealable worry far exceeding his peers on his immature face.

Ever since Ye Chen started teaching him and Shui'er, Kou Zhun stubbornly called Ye Chen his master.And in the past few months, Kou Zhun has gotten used to Ye Chen being his master, and now he even takes it for granted.

"Huzi! From your point of view, how can we solve the problem fundamentally." Ye Chen is no stranger to Kou Zhun's quick thinking and long-term vision at a young age.In the past few months, he has discussed and discussed many important matters with Kou Zhun. On the one hand, he wanted to improve Kou Zhun's ability to deal with major issues, and on the other hand, he wanted to use Kou Zhun's superhuman wisdom and thinking.

"Find out a specific reason why Chen Jingyuan values ​​you so much, and then find a way to transfer this reason away from you." Kou Zhun thought for a while, stared at Ye Chen, and said seriously.

Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes brightened. This is indeed a fundamental way to get rid of the trouble, but this 'specific reason' needs to be carefully planned, otherwise it won't be able to win the trust of others, and how can it be diverted from himself.

Ye Chen frowned and pondered for a while, and instinctively put his hand on the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant worn on his chest since Jiang Huai came back. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought of a way, but it was still a bit rough and vague, and needed further refinement and refinement. reasoning.

Let Ma Gangzi lead someone to guard the study in person, and don't let anyone approach within fifty steps. Ye Chen, Kou Zhun, and Shui'er conspired for a whole day, during which there were some strange sounds.There have even been strange flashes of light passing through the windows.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Ye Chen originally planned to go to the Cao and Luo families to pay New Year's greetings.But in the end they didn't go, instead, in the evening, Luo Yaoshun and Cao Wei each sent fifty guards to Ye Chen, and then Wang Chao brought ten guards to Ye Chen to pay New Year's greetings, pulling two large carts of gifts , very mysterious, directly opened the side door and pulled into the backyard.Then, Wang Chao said that he had a fight with his concubine, Xiu Niang, and planned to live in Ye Chen's house for a while.

These two carts of gifts were actually sent by Cao Bin to Ye Chen, two hundred hard crossbows, two hundred hard bows, and one thousand iron arrows.These things are really prohibited items, even ordinary princes can't have them. Cao Bin dared to transfer them directly from the army to Ye Chen, so he had already asked Zhao Kuangyin for instructions.

In fact, one-third of Wu Desi's manpower has been concentrated around Ye Mansion.Even after Zhao Guangyi received Zhao Kuangyin's order, he sent many fast arresters from Kaifeng Mansion to wait around Ye Mansion day and night.As for the gates of the city and the guards patrolling the city, let alone a sudden intensification of searches for people entering and leaving Kaifeng.

At the same time, in the backyard of Ye Mansion, around the small courtyard where the ghost doctor lived, a land of five or six acres was flattened out. The head of Kaifeng who built the house and almost all the blacksmiths in Kaifeng were invited by Ye Chen. They paid five times the wages of these people on weekdays, and asked them to do their best. According to what Ye Chen said, they began to work overtime, day and night, to build the iron wall.

These days, Ye Chen took the time to carefully study the Qimen Dunjia tree array in Zhao Si's mansion, and combined with the top mazes of later generations, he researched a Qimen Dunjia maze, and planned to have someone build it in his mansion.And in order to make this labyrinth formation effective, it is planned to spend a huge amount of money to build it with a three-foot-high iron wall.

Meng Xiu and Qin Quan were almost hysterical and on the verge of collapse. The two of them hadn't completed the major event entrusted by the celestial master. For them, who were fanatic believers, it was more difficult for them than killing their relatives and themselves. Ten thousand times more painful.As for the miserable ending after returning to the Southern Han Dynasty, they could no longer care about it at this time.

The two of them stayed in the room, their eyes were red, and their faces were frantic. They discussed and discussed for a long time without even eating dinner, but they still couldn't come up with any useful solution.

With a creak, the door of the wing room where the two were located was pushed open from the outside, and a beautiful girl of thirteen or fourteen, Shi Shiran, walked in from the outside.

"Who are you?" Meng Xiu and Qin Quan asked with surprise, frowning at the same time.They are eunuchs, so they will not be affected by the girl's charming beauty, let alone be confused by her charm.But the appearance of a stunning girl is still more likely to make them lose their vigilance than the appearance of a big man.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is who you are." The girl walked leisurely in the courtyard, as if entering and exiting Xiangfuhou's mansion, she walked out in a few steps, and came to the two of them slowly and quickly.

The two of them finally realized something was wrong, their expressions changed, and they ran towards the door while shouting "Come on".The two of them were just literati who had their minds bewitched by Chen Jingyuan's secret technique, and they voluntarily left the palace to become officials in the Southern Han Dynasty, they were not masters of Tianyi.

Meng Xiu and Qin Quan shouted loudly, but there was still no movement outside, neither the Southern Han guards from the Southern Han mission nor the Honglu Temple guards came.

While the figure was flashing, the girl tapped twice with her jade hand, and Meng Xiu and Qin Quan were frozen in place, and they could no longer make a sound.

This girl is naturally Shui'er.

In order to make some people with ulterior motives in the court stop thinking about it, Zhao Kuangyin forcibly repatriated the mission led by the envoys Meng Xiu and Qin Quan of the Southern Han Dynasty that day.Send a team of banned troops out of Kaifeng, and send them all the way out of the country.

However, not long after leaving Kaifeng, a group of masked thieves with strong martial arts came, wounded nearly half of the Imperial Army, and rescued the Southern Han Mission.To be precise, the main and deputy envoys of the Southern Han Dynasty disappeared.The other accompanying missions were taken back to Kaifeng by the rest of the forbidden army.

After the news spread to Kaifeng, Hou Yechen, who was at the mansion of Zhao Dezhao, King of Wei, and a group of officials and dignitaries who gave Zhao Dezhao New Year's greetings, his face was ashen, extremely ugly.More than 20 officials at the scene witnessed this scene with their own eyes.It is said that Ye Chen lost his composure and dropped the wine glass on the ground, and left the night banquet in Prince Wei's Mansion ahead of time, and returned to Ye Mansion under the protection of a large number of guards.

Immediately afterwards, the Ye Mansion strengthened its defenses. At every door, wall, and roof, there were fully armed guards wearing armor with knives and bows on their backs, patrolling, squatting, and protecting with solemn faces.

Three days later, Meng Xiu and Qin Quan were besieged by various powerful forces in an inn in Luzhou, Huainan, and forced to reveal a big secret.

The process at that time was like this, when a ruthless man chopped off three of Meng Xiu's fingers, and used torture on Meng Xiu and Qin Quan, the two finally revealed this big secret.

The content of the secret is: the reason why Tiandao leader Chen Jingyuan valued Xiangfu Hou Yechen so much was not Ye Chen himself, but to get the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant on Ye Chen.As for why Chen Jingyuan used Ye Chen's guise, it was because he was worried that Emperor Song would know the secret, which would cause Emperor Song to covet the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant, but he would not get the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant.

Immediately afterwards, the legendary classics about the three jade pendants of Tianxing, Yinyue, and Yangri were dug out, found out, and spread like wind throughout the Song Dynasty, and even the whole world.

According to legend, the two jade pendants of Yinyue and Yangri have been handed down in the hands of Taoist sects in the world, and the Tianxing jade pendant is born every 500 years. The three jade pendants can make mortals live forever, and a person who cultivates Taoism can open the door to the world. The gate of the fairyland, soaring to the fairyland during the day.This is how Guang Chengzi, the legendary teacher of the emperor, ascended to the fairy world.

These materials were tortured by various powerful forces from Meng Xiu and Qin Quan who were separated. The content of what the two said was the same. Afterwards, the various forces investigated the Taoist classics in detail and verified them to a certain extent.The result is that this news may be exaggerated. For example, few people believe it when flying to the fairyland in the daytime, but many people believe that it can make mortals live forever.

At the same time, another news came out that the Xiangfuhou Mansion hired all the craftsmen and blacksmiths who built the walls in Kaifeng, and was building a maze array with an area of ​​only five or six acres day and night. There was a small courtyard in the middle of the maze. , there is a basement in the yard, and the legendary Heavenly Star Jade Pendant is placed in that basement.

The news spread, but ghosts and snake gods from all walks of life in the world have already done their best, rushed to Kaifeng with the fastest speed, entered Kaifeng with various unimaginable identities, and wanted to grab the Heavenly Star Jade Pendant before the maze formation was completed. .
