I Have An Impenetrable Fortress
66. Hospitable City Lord Zhang
The uncle and nephew of the Cheng family lost their minds at the same time.
They just feel that everything in front of them seems to have become unreal.
The other sounds in the ear disappeared, only a faint human voice sounded intermittently...
A while later, Hui Tianyu, who was waiting outside, was notified by Mr. Wu Yun and re-entered the lobby.
At this time, there was no sign of the Cheng family's uncles and nephews in the lobby, only Mr. Wu Yun was left.
The one-eyed young man didn't ask too many questions, and stood with his hands tied: "Senior."
"Send this letter down the mountain and act according to the words." The old man in black ordered.
While talking, he handed Hui Tianyu a letter.
Hui Tianyu took a look, one was a sealed envelope, and the other contained a note.
The time, place and contact information were written on the note.
"Yes, senior." Hui Tianyu understood and resigned immediately.
The one-eyed youth hurried out of the city and down the mountain in the middle of the night, before dawn, and arrived at a small town named Jiepu under the administration of Qinzhou Prefecture.
In Jiepu City, Hui Tianyu found a stone bridge. Under the stone bridge, he took out a stone brick with an iron box inside.
After putting the letter in the iron box, return to Tianyu and leave.
He went to the far side of the river, found a hidden place, and quietly looked at the place where the iron box was stored.
When the dawn was light, suddenly a group of black shadows flew under the bridge.
The black shadow stopped and looked back at Tianyu, only to see that it was a bird with black feathers and golden eyes.
The bird was extremely flexible, its wings vibrated and hovered in mid-air, one paw took off the stone brick, and the other paw took out the iron box from the hole under the bridge.
As dexterous as a human being, it stuffed the stone bricks back into place, and then flew away with the iron box on its wings.
After Hui Tianyu watched Hei Niao leave, he also returned to Chang'an to report to Mr. Wu Yun.
While the black bird is dexterous and intelligent, it is also extremely durable. It flew with an iron box all the way, and after a long journey, it just landed in a city.
Here, there is the property of the Cheng family.
The person in charge picked up the black bird, and when he saw the iron box, he looked dignified, and immediately ordered the people to rush to the capital.
The ancestral land of the Cheng family was not in the capital of the Eastern Tang dynasty.
However, with their close contacts with the royal family in recent years, a large number of members of the Cheng clan are active in the royal capital.
In the Cheng family's mansion, an old man took out the iron box and took out the letter. After reading it, his white eyebrows could not help but move slightly.
He pondered for a moment, then asked the people around him: "His Royal Highness is at the residence today?"
"His Royal Highness is at the residence, Sixth Uncle."
The old man nodded and stood up: "Send the post, the old man has urgent business to visit His Highness."
He went all the way to the residence of the son of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the chief of the residence of the son of the emperor invited him in, and said apologetically: "Mr. Mingxi, please forgive me, there is an urgent visitor at the house suddenly, the son has to entertain him first, it is not intentional to neglect. "
"An urgent customer?" The old man of the Cheng family, nicknamed Mr. Mingxi, asked, "Do you know who it is?"
The housekeeper said softly, "It's over there in the Dark Pavilion."
Mr. Mingxi nodded slightly.
It's no secret that the master of the dark pavilion and the prince are at odds with each other, and it's no secret that the two sides set up eyeliners for each other, but it's just that everyone doesn't bring it up on the table.
"His Royal Highness will meet the guests first, the old man is not in a hurry."
The housekeeper brought Mr. Mingxi to a side hall to watch the tea reception.
The old man put the iron box on the table beside him and slowly sipped his tea.
After a while, the housekeeper came to invite him: "Mr. Mingxi, Your Highness welcomes you."
The old man followed him to the main hall, and there was a man sitting in the hall. His facial features were young, but his temples were already slightly gray.
"Your Highness." Mr. Ming Xi greeted him.
The prince said: "Mr. Tired has been waiting for a long time, and I will see you with my family."
"What is your Highness talking about?" Mr. Ming Xi shook his head: "It's the old man who bothered you."
"Could it be that the sir is also here for that Chang'an city?"
The prince said: "It's just right,
I heard someone report it just now, and it was also for that lonely city in the wilderness. "
Mr. Mingxi is the Cheng family's contact person who stayed in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Previously, it was also his plan to arrange for people to go to Qinzhou Mansion in Longbei County to investigate matters related to Chang'an City.
"Yes, there is news." Mr. Mingxi pushed the iron box in front of Shizi, and handed the letter to him for reading.
After the prince saw it, he pondered slightly: "What do you think, sir?"
"Earlier, when Du Kun attacked the city, the entire army was wiped out, and no one escaped." The old man said slowly, "This is not possible by ordinary means."
He looked at the tin box and the letter: "Now that the other party is good at using poison, it can solve the previous doubts, but I am afraid that Yong Hui and the others are young and have little knowledge, and they will be deceived by the other party."
The son said: "The news from the Dark Pavilion, besides the poisonous fog, also mentioned the maze."
He did not conceal the information he had just obtained from Mr. Mingming.
Mr. Mingxi nodded slightly: "It is another way to confirm the message sent by Yonghui and the others."
The prince nodded: "That's right, and the conclusion from the secret cabinet is that the lonely city must not be allowed to continue, otherwise it will become a serious disaster."
After a moment of silence, he spoke again: "Father sent back an oracle from the front line, ordering me to resolve the Longbei incident as soon as possible."
Mr. Mingxi was slightly surprised.
King Tang meant that the prince had to solve it himself, and he couldn't put the burden on the secret cabinet?
No wonder Shizi looked serious.
This is equivalent to the fact that in this incident, the king of Tang leaned towards the master of the dark pavilion to a certain extent.
Compared with Chang'an City, which is far away in Longbei County, this problem seems to be more urgent now.
"I want to stay in Beijing for my father, this matter can only be handed over to the people below."
The prince looked at Mr. Mingxi: "Sir, please mention them more."
Mr. Mingxi nodded silently: "Your Highness is too polite, this old man should do his best."
"There are movements in Jingyue Tower, Qingfu Palace, and Wangzhen Temple, and it seems that they are also hostile to Chang'an City. Mister, you might as well contact them."
The prince said: "Besides, I heard that the remnants of the Chen family have defected to that lonely city. I remember that the Sikong family has always wanted to trouble the Chen family. Mister might as well inform the Sikong family."
He said slowly: "If you get the right way, you will get more help, but if you lose the way, you will get little help."
Mr. Mingxi understood: "Your Highness is right."
After the two discussed for a while, Mr. Mingxi left the Shizi Mansion.
At the same time, in the dark pavilion, in a small building in the backyard, two people sat facing each other in the dark.
"Hiding Gu Hechuan's mistake, and Dahe Longmen's business dealings, can our Palace of the Son fall into a tumble?" one person said indifferently.
"Not necessarily." Another person said: "But you can try."
The other party replied: "Okay, then try it."
Afterwards, the small building regained its tranquility.
The gate of the capital city, people come in and out.
More than one group of people went out of the city, with the responsibility of contacting them, and headed northwest.
To Longbei County.
But right now, in Longbei County Qinzhou Mansion, Longling Baiyunyuan, the hospitable City Lord Zhang is welcoming a new unexpected guest.
However, the other party does not seem to be malicious.
"Effect?"
Zhang Dongyun raised his eyebrows.
Chen Jiezhi, who came to report, clasped his fists and replied, "He really said that."
