Chapter 33(1/2)

What is supposed to come will always come.

Grand Tutor Gao took a sip of oolong tea and said: "The emperor was very happy when he saw the remaining Qingsi tooth I presented, and approved a memorial for me."

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Which one?"

Taifu Gao said: "Take back the right of the Imperial City Division to kill first and report later!"

Feng Jiuxiao wondered: "Why? Does Mr. Gao have any objections to the Imperial City Division?"

Taifu Gao shook his head and said: "Everything has two sides. Behead first and then tell the story. If you kill it right, it will be a blessing. If you kill it wrong, it will be a disaster. Besides, are there many examples of eunuchs interfering in politics and causing chaos in the world?"

"Then don't you hate Mr. Gao to death?"

"How can I fight an uncertain battle? The prince suddenly fell seriously ill and voluntarily abdicated in favor of a worthy person. The emperor intended to let Wei Qiansui take over the Imperial City Division. The bad people's congress commander had another candidate. Wei Qiansui also told me that this strategy of killing first and showing off later seems to be a good idea.

, in fact, it laid hidden dangers for the emperor. Once the Imperial City Division is used by people with ulterior motives, it will inevitably seriously damage the foundation of the empire! These people who were infiltrated and instigated rebellion killed loyal ministers and good generals, but they still used the banner of loyalty to the emperor and protecting the country.

!Isn’t it a huge irony! In the past, during the reign of Emperor Xianling of the Han Dynasty, the Shichangshi Rebellion occurred. Twelve eunuchs killed all the generals who could fight with various crimes, and also beheaded some ministers who were upright and outspoken.

, so that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had no one to protect him and finally became a veritable loner! He became the king of subjugation!"

The ten permanent servants are Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Xia Yun, Guo Sheng, Sun Zhang, Bi Lan, Li Song, Duan Gui, Gao Wang, Zhang Gong, Han Kui, Song Dian and other twelve eunuchs!

These twelve people "were given titles of nobility and favor, their fathers, brothers, and children were all in the prefectures and counties. They were greedy and despicable, and they were harmed by others." Especially Zhang Rang!

The Shi Changshi Rebellion led to the rise of a generation of tycoon Dong Zhuo!

Since then, the world has been in chaos and the people are in dire straits!

After a long conversation with Taifu Gao, the emperor also had new ideas. His attitude towards his relatives and eunuchs has changed. The next step will be to gradually differentiate and weaken their power!

Feng Jiuxiao said: "The emperor is still a saint!"

Taifu Gao said: "You actually criticize the current saint, how courageous you are!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "Isn't this the way to guard the Taifu? He is very cautious towards other students and does not dare to lie!"

Taifu Gao smiled and said: "Since when did you become my student? I didn't recognize it!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "It's up to the teacher to recognize or not to recognize him, and it's also up to the student to recognize or not recognize him!"

Taifu Gao laughed and said, "It seems that I have read Buddhist scriptures a lot! I actually know how to shoot a sword!"

Feng Jiuxiao just lowered her head and smiled.

At this time, the servant came to report: "The Marquis of Qi is here."

"Welcome quickly!"

When the eldest son of Qi saw Feng Jiuxiao, he did not show any eager expression. He just looked at him quietly and sat down.

Mr. Gao said: "I happen to have something to deal with. You guys talk first. After the talk is over, go to Ningxiang Pavilion. I'll wait for you there." After finishing speaking, Mr. Gao went out.

The eldest son of Qi hurriedly stood up to watch him off as a sign of respect. He never expected that Taifu Gao would stop him after his morning visit and invite him to come to his house to talk!

Unexpectedly, when we were at a loss, Mr. Gao unexpectedly appeared to help!

Feng Jiuxiao was different. He had the expectation that everything was under control. Ever since he met Taifu Gao, Feng Jiuxiao had already had the idea of ​​meeting the eldest son of Qi through Taifu Gao. Without Taifu Gao, there would be no iron shoes.

There is no place to look for, but with Master Gao, it will take no effort to get there!

Feng Jiuxiao didn't waste any time and took out the secret letter and tokens given to him by Mr. Qi Xiaohou and put them on the table.

Mr. Qi picked up the secret letter and tore off the envelope and began to read it. He finished reading it quickly. He tore the letter into pieces, put it into the envelope, put it in his arms, and said slowly: "Thank you."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "You're welcome!"

Mr. Qi said: "It seems that Mr. Qi is still safe for the time being. The butler has a lot of problems. You have to go back and tell Mr. Qi to wait patiently and leave the rest to me. Mr. Gao seems to be very safe here.

It can be used as a contact point. In the future, pigeon transmissions can also be located here."

Feng Jiuxiao also quite agrees. This place is located in the suburbs of the city, in a remote location and sparsely populated. If a suspicious person appears, it is easy to find it. Secondly, there are not many people in Gaofu, except for a few maids and servants who take care of Taifu Gao's daily life.

Others, and it is said that these maids and servants are the nephews of his cousins ​​from his hometown, and they are loyal to Taifu Gao.

The two of them agreed that the eldest son of Qi would be solely responsible for the manpower arrangements, pigeon training and other details. Feng Jiuxiao was only responsible for one thing, which was to obtain the support of Taifu Gao!

Mr. Gao was quite supportive.

It is conducive to safeguarding imperial power and upholding justice. Why not support it?

The trip to the capital went quite smoothly, even exceeding expectations.

The unexpected addition of Taifu Gao undoubtedly greatly increased the chances of winning.

Feng Jiuxiao knew that the capital was a place of trouble and murder, so he couldn't stay for long! He didn't bother to visit the Great Wall, and said goodbye to everyone almost like a revolving door.

Before leaving Beijing, Wei Qiansui gave Feng Jiuxiao a bronze medal.

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Doesn't this violate the rules?"

Wei Qiansui chuckled and said: "How can our family control every move in the world? We rely on countless messengers all over the world!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said: "So Feng is an informant of Wei Qiansui?"

Wei Qiansui said: "You, as an informant, are actually dispensable. The places in the world where there should be informants have already been arranged. But you have no fixed place and are wandering, so it is difficult to play any role."

Feng Jiuxiao cupped her fists and smiled: "I understand, thank you very much!"

He knew in his heart that Wei Qiansui just wanted to have another amulet for him. Sometimes this bronze medal could help him solve a lot of troubles.

Taifu Gao gave him a horse, a thousand-mile horse that chases wind and lightning!

When she left Beijing alone, Feng Jiuxiao no longer considered the route. She just let the horse ride the reins, whether it was a big road or a trail, as long as the general direction was south. Anyway, the horse ran fast, and even if it strayed, it could be found!

After galloping for nearly two hours, we arrived at Anling. We met the first inn on the official road and dismounted to rest. The horse sent by Gao Taifu was called Taxue. It was completely black and had a tuft of snow-white hair on each of its four hooves, just like Tuxue.

Therefore, it is called "stepping on the snow".

The inn is not big, but the name is famous, Yingshen Inn! On a stone tablet outside the door, it is written that Dou Jiande set up an army here in the late Sui Dynasty and established the Great Xia Dynasty, which was later destroyed by Li Shimin.

Any store will always put money on its face, improve its cultural taste through various means, and then enhance its reputation. Either historical celebrities have stayed here, or major events have happened here.

The same is true for the Yingshen Inn. However, we couldn't find any other suitable celebrities, so we had to move Dou Jiande, an inappropriate figure out of the hotel.

I ordered a pot of rice wine brewed by the store, a plate of peanuts, and half a pound of beef, and started to enjoy the delicious food. At this time, a total of eight people, five men and three women, walked in outside the door. They were all dressed in strange clothes. The men all had high noses and deep eyes, and wore horned hats.

, wearing exotic robes, the women are not very old, about twenty, they are all tall, with snow-white skin, big eyes, long eyelashes, and exude a strong exotic style. Feng Jiuxiao looks at their clothes as if they are from Tianshan Uyghurs

People, but they are not sure, after all, there are always some discrepancies between what they know from books and the actual situation.

One of the men said in fluent Mandarin: "Shopkeeper, here are ten pounds of roasted lamb!"

One of the women looked Feng Jiuxiao up and down and whispered to the woman next to her.

Feng Jiuxiao heard that she was speaking Uyghur. Even if she heard clearly, it was useless because she couldn't understand a word. So she simply ignored her and talked after eating.

Several guests nearby started talking, guessing where these people were from. Some said they were Uighurs at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, some said they were Nibor people on the Tibetan border, and some guessed they were Oroqen people from the far north of Liaodong.

The group of people from the Western Regions just ate in silence, ignoring other people's comments. The leader, with a beard, a dupatta, a Tony robe, and jade-tuk leather boots, said to the guests next to him: "We are Tianshan

The businessman who came here wants to do business with you rich Han people." Those Han people didn't expect that this Westerner could understand what he said, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. They immediately became quiet and stopped talking. At this time, another person came in from the door.

As soon as the four of them came in, they called the boss with Liaodong accents to serve wine and food.

Feng Jiuxiao saw that the four of them had steady footwork, sharp eyes, and protruding veins on their hands. They must be martial arts masters.

So many people gathered in the small inn all of a sudden, but the boss was not excited at all. He seemed to be used to such scenes.

Feng Jiuxiao thought to herself: It seems that this inn has a good business with people coming and going every day, and the boss is used to it. However, it is also possible that the boss has experienced many vicissitudes of life, and has long been trained to the point where he is not surprised by favors and humiliations!

When the four Liaodong men saw the three women from the Western Regions, their eyes suddenly lit up, and their mouths became unclean. They spoke in a low voice at first, but after a few glasses of wine, their voices gradually increased, and they were simply unscrupulous. The three women seemed unscrupulous.

Although he understood Chinese, there was no response, but the leader's face became increasingly gloomy, and he glanced coldly at the four men.

At this time, a man over there was looking towards him. The two people's eyes immediately met.

Both of their eyes were as cold as knives. The knives collided with each other, causing invisible sparks to burst out in the air!

"What are you looking at?" The man from Liaodong spoke with a rough accent unique to Guandong, which was quite stiff!

Not to be outdone, the bearded Uighur immediately responded: "Look at you! What's going on?"

The Liaodong man suddenly stood up, slapped the table, then pointed at the bearded leader and said angrily: "Try another damn one!"

The leader sneered: "You are allowed to curse, but others are not allowed to look at you. Who are you? I heard that the Fourth Young Master is the most famous and powerful among the Han people. Just by looking at you, I can tell that you are bullies and shy of the strong!"

The Liaodong man was still eager to take action just now, but an older man next to him suddenly grabbed him, stared directly at the leader and asked: "Do you know the fourth martial arts master?"

The leader said: "I don't know them all, I'm only familiar with Master Liancheng of Sanqin!"

The older man said: "Are you friends?"

"Of course! I came to the Central Plains this time just to see him!"

"What? Liancheng came to Anling?" The four Liaodong men seemed a little surprised.

The Uyghur leader said: "Not bad!"

The four Liaodong men seemed to have sobered up in an instant, and suddenly fell silent. Then the older man whispered to the three of them, and they paid and left.

They were actually arguing just now about whether what the Uyghur said was true or false, and in the end they would rather believe it or not. Before leaving, one of them glanced at Feng Jiuxiao, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.

Feng Jiuxiao had actually been staring at these four people just now.
