Yan Ermei, whose courtesy name was Yongqing, was born as a Juren. He was quick-thinking and very good at planning. He was used as a subject in Shi Kefa. However, Shi Kefa was mediocre and often looked forward and could not make decisions at the moment, which left Yan Ermei without any use of his skills.

Seeing that Shi Kefa was unwilling to adopt it, Yan Ermei stepped back and said secondly; "Maybe someone can be sent to Kaifeng to investigate one or two."

He also said: "The Ying thief is extraordinary. When he broke the thief, he killed the thief's strange man. It is better for the Lord to come forward and ask Zhenren Zhang to leave."

After hearing this, Shi Kefa felt it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Ke."

So he called his adopted son Shi Dewei and said, "Hold my famous letter and go to Songfeng Temple to invite Zhang Zhenren."

Shi Dewei dared not neglect and hurriedly invited Zhenren Zhang to go.

Before Zhenren Zhang arrived, Shi Kefazheng was chatting with Yan Ermei, but he came to report in person: "Sir, a messenger from Kaifeng asked to see him."

Yan Ermei looked at Shi Kefa.

Shi Kefa said: "Call in."

He brought people in casually, and the man bowed his head and said, "The villain Zhu Shier of the Prince Zhou Mansion, pay homage to Lord Shi."

Shi Kefa waved his hand: "Are you from the Zhou royal palace?"

Zhu Shier bowed again and said, "The villain is the prince of Zhou."

Shi Kefa nodded slightly: "You are here to meet me, but what is the important matter for the Prince of Zhou?"

Zhu Shier said: "There is a letter from the prince, please check it out."

He then presented a letter to Shi Kefa and handed it to Shi Kefa in person. When Shi Kefa took the letter, he frowned slightly, and then handed the letter to Yan Ermei.

After reading the letter, Yan Ermei was overjoyed and said, "Sir, what a good opportunity!"

He said, "There are only 3,000 troops left by Ying Yi, and the main force has been transferred away. The prince of Zhou and others are the inner supporters. The city is only broken. The subordinates ask for an order. I will give me five,000 troops and horses, and I will take it back to Kaifeng!"

Shi Kefa waved his hand, waved his messenger first, and then said to Yan Ermei: "The head of the Zhang family in Kaifeng contacted me earlier. Now, there are still loyal people in Kaifeng's city. But how can we dispatch troops without orders? What's more, how can we determine the movements of the traitor based on just a letter from the Prince of Zhou?"

He looked at Yan Ermei and said deeply: "The rebel thieves will occupy Kaifeng, and Kaifeng will be in dire straits. Whether it is the head of the Zhang family or the prince of Zhou, they all hope that the king's army will kill the thief. For this reason, they can fabricate news just to lead the king's army to come, so they must be careful."

He also said: "Suppressing the thief does not last a day or a night. You must make proper preparations to destroy the enemy. It is not a good idea to act hastily now."

When Yan Ermei heard this, she sighed in her heart.

A great opportunity, I missed it!

He was unwilling to accept his wish: "The Ying thief occupied Kaifeng, set up an official office, set up an order, resettle refugees, and settled land. He is no longer a member of the thief. He just occupied Kaifeng and has not yet established a foothold. If he wasted his time, the general situation would be gone after he gained a foothold and captured the people's hearts!"

Shi Kefa also knew this truth, but he could not make a decision and refused on the grounds that he could not transfer troops without orders.

He said: "You should not move the troops without any action. But you have a good suggestion before, so you can explore it first."

Yan Ermei was speechless.

After a long time, he said: "Since that's the case, the students are willing to follow Zhang Zhenren to Kaifeng for a visit."

Shi Kefa hesitated for a moment and agreed.

So he ignored the messenger of the Prince of Zhou and refused to respond. Soon, Shi Dewei led a Taoist who was in his thirties and had a clear appearance to Shi Kefa's mansion.

Shi Kefa went out to greet him, and he was very courteous and said, "The young master arrived in Xuyi, and the brilliance shone brightly. I regretted that the officials were busy with official duties and neglected the young master and hoped to forgive me."

The Taoist smiled softly and bowed, "I dare not, I dare not, I am so rude."

"Please be in the young master."

Shi Kefa led the way forward and led the Taoist to the hall, and divided the guest and host to sit down.

This Taoist, Zhang Zhenren, who was called the Young Master by Shi Kefa, was the lineage of the Tianshi of Longhu Mountain. He was the son of the teacher today, so he was called the Young Master.

Although Mr. Zhang is only thirty years old, he has a lot of supernatural powers. In addition, the son of the Heavenly Master is very good at identity. No matter where he goes, he is a guest and no one dares to neglect it.

Mr. Zhang came from western Jiangxi, and arrived in Xuyi the day before yesterday. He settled in the Songfeng Temple, Liangshan outside the city. At that time, Shi Kefa held a banquet to entertain him.

Xuyi and Sizhou, across the Huai River, one south and one north, are important places that guard the entrance of Hongze Lake. The Huai River comes west, enters Hongze Lake, exits from the east, and reaches the sea. Hongze Lake is the most important distribution center in the southern section of the Grand Canal.

As the governor of the grain transport, Shi Kefaduo stayed in these two places while inspecting the grain transport.

After serving tea, I first chatted, and then talked about the Kaifeng incident.

Speaking of Ying Yi, Shi Kefa was extremely angry: "I thought this person was also loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but I didn't expect that the wolf was ambition. Now that he has eliminated the thieves and replaced him, he has become independent and has a great disaster."

Mr. Zhang smiled and said, "Have you seen this person?"

Shi Kefa shook his head: "I have never seen this person. This person has a sudden rise in a strange peak, which caught people off guard."

Zhang Shaoshi nodded slightly: "This man is independent and is indeed very bold. I wonder how the adults will deal with it? If he is based in the Central Plains, if he sends troops to the east..."

Shi Kefa sighed and said, "What the young master said is exactly what I am worried about."

Then he said seriously: "The Longhu Mountain lineage was granted the title of the Heavenly Master, and the emperors of all dynasties have never neglected it. The lower officials cannot move here, but there is something, I beg the young master."

Mr. Zhang's eyes flashed: "Sir, you may hear it if you have something to do."

Shi Kefa said: "The Kaifeng incident only came in sporadic news. In order to know yourself and your enemy, the subordinate pleaded with the young master to visit Kaifeng. The thief was quite capable. I heard that even the strange man under the thief was killed by him. Only the young master had great supernatural powers, or could he have some experiences."

Then he introduced Yan Ermei: "Yongqing is the confidant of the lower-ranking officials, and he is willing to follow the young master."

When Master Zhang heard this, he changed his mind and thought to himself that he was about to go to Kaifeng, so he nodded: "I am about to go north this time, but it's a good way."

Shi Kefa was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.

Mr. Zhang said: "But we still have to go back to Songfeng Temple and say goodbye to Songyun Zhenren."

"It should." Shi Kefa naturally had no objection.

So Young Master Zhang stood up and bowed: "Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye." Then he said to Yan Ermei: "Sir, I'm waiting for you outside."

After Master Zhang went out, Shi Kefa pulled Yan Ermei for advice before saying goodbye. Yan Ermei left with Master Zhang.

One by one, the two left Shi Kefa's mansion, neither riding a horse nor taking a car. The young master was in front, strolling in the garden, and Yan Ermei was behind, chasing closely. When they arrived at Songfeng Temple, they were exhausted and panting.

The young master smiled and said, "How many donkeys are there in Songfeng Temple."

Yan Ermei felt embarrassed.

The young master smiled and said, "It is not easy for Mr. Yan to keep up with me if he is not a practitioner. Mr. Yan will take a break first, and after I say goodbye to Songyun, I will set off to head north."

Yan Ermei is invincible.

So the Taoist boy was ordered to take Yan Ermei to rest, while the Master Zhang went to see the true man Songyun.

Song Yun Zhenren is over 80 years old, with a childlike face and a childlike hair, and a man of cultivation.

Seeing that Master Zhang came back, Song Yun clasped his beard and smiled and said, "The governor of the canal transportation asked the Master to go. Could it be that something big happened?"

After seeing the ceremony with Master Zhang and Song Yun, they sat down and smiled and said, "It's true that something happened. The Governor of the Cao Transportation Army wanted to invite his juniors to Kaifeng to see the person who had a protruding peak and let him find out."

When Song Yun Zhenren heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Isn't it just what you want?"
