  Chapter 724 Collusion in the E-shaped scroll (ask for a monthly ticket!)

The man in the gray shirt with his head tucked in and his arms folded, glanced to the side from time to time, watching the guy leisurely enter the restaurant, and then he winked at a guy in a brown padded robe opposite him , that guy stomped his numb feet with some displeasure, and went around to the back of the restaurant.

  It took a while for the man in cotton robe to come out from behind, and gestured to the man in gray shirt, indicating that there is no back door behind.

  The man in the gray shirt entered the restaurant.

Open the cloth curtain first, the gray-shirted man couldn't help being refreshed by the heat coming towards his face, his cheeks that had already lost consciousness from the cold were a little itchy under the heat, he resisted scratching, but used The eyes searched for the target.

  The restaurant hall is not very big, but the inside is almost full, and there are still a few scattered seats left, so we can only sit together.

   There was no trace of him in the outer room, and the man in the gray shirt was not in a hurry. He searched along the aisle, and finally saw the target in the corner of the inner room.

  Seeing that the target ordered food and drinks alone, and the servant next to him was accompanying him at another table, the man in gray felt at ease.

  He looked in the inner room, except for one window, it was impossible to go out, and the people in the room were basically not suspicious, so he backed out and signaled to his partner.

  The two ordered food and wine at a table outside near the door, and started to eat.

  For the two of them, it is indeed a bit tiresome to watch them in turn all year round.

  The requirements above are also very simple. First, don’t let the other party run away. If they disappear, report them immediately; second, observe the people who come in contact with them. If there are strangers, they must be tracked down immediately.

   It's just that this guy likes to swagger around all day long, and he has visited all the good places in the entire capital city, which makes them exhausted.

  Yang Kedong took a deep breath, and finally calmed down the follower, and he gave the servant next to him a wink.

  After receiving the hint, the servant quickly changed clothes with another person beside him, and then changed places with Yang Kedong. The three people at the next table immediately replaced a person of similar stature.

   This is the busiest time, the brazier inside is burning hotly, many people are dressing and undressing, no one pays attention.

  Yang Kedong only then raised his eyes to look at the two people in front of him.

A person is obviously of higher status, with slender cheeks, fair skin, sharp eyes, holding a string of beads in his hands, but he glanced at the hands of the other party, and he knew that they were a pair of hands that could hold a knife and a bow. He seemed younger than himself. It should be a few years younger, Yang Kedong was a little surprised.

  The other person has a leisurely demeanor. Whether it is the jade wrench finger in his hand, the folding fan he is holding, or the jade pendant on his waist, he feels more like a wealthy gentleman in the capital city.

  Since his father voluntarily left him as a hostage in the capital city a few years ago, Yang Kedong has already developed a sharp eye and the ability to adapt to changes.

Captain Long of the Great Zhou Dynasty watched very closely. The few servants around him were all recognized by Captain Long, and the places he often visited were also set up by Captain Long, so it was difficult to get rid of these things wherever he went. human gaze.

  So he had to expand his scope of activities more and more to find some opportunities as much as possible, especially after his father sent people to Beijing the year before last, Yang Kedong knew that his father might have some plans.

  Two days ago, the eyeliner sent by my father in the capital city took the initiative to contact me. This is a very rare situation.

Yang Kedong knew that he was here as a hostage, and would be watched by Long Jinwei at any time, and his father's eyeliner had their own mission, which was to collect all kinds of information and movements of the Great Zhou court on the Southwest. It is said that they did a good job, There are many officials who like gold, silver and jewelry in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as they persist in searching and digging, there is nothing that cannot be done.

  Because of this, Yang Kedong never contacted them. Apart from their occasional introductions, Yang Kedong remained quiet and silent.

   Unexpectedly, this time they actually asked themselves to meet with someone, and it was a Jurchen noble chief. It is said that this is the request of the other party.

  Yang Kedong knew that if it wasn't urgent or he had no choice, the people his father arranged in the capital would never make such a request to him. This would easily lead to unnecessary troubles and even expose some of his father's intentions.

  But the other party insisted on the request because they could not stay in the capital city for too long.

  The three looked at each other, but none of them spoke.

  Finally, Yang Kedong cleared his throat, lowered his voice and said, "Time is precious, if you two have anything to say, please come."

   "Are you the son of Mr. Yang, the envoy of Bozhou Propaganda and Consolation?" Dai Shan was also looking at this dark-complexioned man. His appearance was not surprising, and it could even be said to be too ordinary. If he walked on the street, he looked more like a farmer in a mountain village.

   "It's Yang, your honor is..." Yang Kedong already knew the identity of this person, so he just checked it out as a courtesy.

"I am Aixinjueluo Daishan, the second son of Jianzhou Zuowei Nurhachi. This time I was ordered by my father Khan to go to Beijing for business. I heard that Bozhou chieftain intends to contact us Jurchen to conspire with us, so this time I also want to cooperate with Yang. I want to meet Brother Yang and hear what Brother Yang and your father mean."

  Daishan’s words surprised Yang Kedong, conspiring to make a big deal? Who dares to say that?

  Yang Kedong glanced coldly at the matchmaker next to him, but quickly calmed down again. The people sent by his father are all experienced and cautious people. How could he say such things in front of outsiders? Obviously this guy came to deceive himself.

"Planning for a big event? What kind of big event? The big event in the world should also be planned by the emperor and the princes in the court. How can it be the turn of the people in the wilderness to talk about it? Absurd, ridiculous." Yang Kedong was not polite, one was in the northeast and the other was in the southwest. Yang Kedong didn't count on these things. What benefits can the Jurchens bring to Banzhou?

   Unexpectedly, Yang Kedong was so rude, and a flash of anger flashed in Daishan's eyes.

   It's just that he also knows that the other party is thousands of miles away in the southwest, and it really has nothing to do with Jurchen. This time, he came to the door this time because he wanted to find out the other party's background.

If the other party is just content with the status quo and seeks verbal support from a distance, then it is meaningless. Daishan will just turn around and leave, too lazy to waste time, but if the other party also intends to wrestle with Da Zhou, then his side can do it Let's cooperate.

"Brother Yang, if your so-called major events can only be managed by a group of corpses and vegetarians, then I have nothing to say, but I heard that the battle for the Southwest Liutu is very fierce, maybe Da Zhou still has no time to intervene. , but when Dazhou has passed this period, do you think Banzhou can still be an independent kingdom?"

Once it comes, it will be safe, and Daishan also spent some time to understand the struggle between the chieftain and the officials in the southwest of Dazhou, as well as the current situation of the people under his command. It should be said that it is worse than Daishan imagined, just like It's a pile of dry firewood thrown on the side of the road. As long as a spark is dropped, it may cause a big scene that is difficult to control.

Under such circumstances, Daishan would not have any idea if he didn’t believe that Bozhou chieftain, and the act of sending his second son to the capital city as a proton was itself suspicious. In Daishan’s view, this was precisely to reassure the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty The behavior of this kind of behavior, and often this kind of behavior is only because of the ghost in the heart.

"Brother, you should be talking about your Jurchens, right?" Yang Kedong ignored the other party's instigation and provocation, "You Jurchens should be worried, if Da Zhou really uses the Mongols, can you Jurchens It’s easy to please? Don’t think that swallowing a few small tribes can show off its might, the tiger may take a nap, but once it wakes up, the local dogs and wild wolves can only go away.”

  In the ten years of proton career in the capital city, I dare not say anything else, but Yang Kedong is quite familiar with the situation around Dazhou.

   His face turned pale with anger from Yang Kedong's unceremonious words. Daishan has never met such a tough guy who doesn't give him any face. This guy is just here to deliberately provoke him.

   "Hehe, in Liaodong, I only know that a sick tiger can only be devoured by wolves." Daishan also counterattacked unceremoniously.

   "Then go and try it." Yang Kedong said angrily.

Being speechless by this guy, Daishan could hardly suppress his inner anger, but Natu interjected first: "Mr. Yang, we will definitely try when it is time to try, but Mr. Yang has never considered it. What will happen to Bozhou in the future? I believe Mr. Yang must understand this Han Chinese idiom. Although Jurchen and Bozhou are far apart, I know that the chieftain of Bozhou, that is, your father, will not always be treated like this by the local government and Han gentry. Bullying, if he can tolerate it, then the mountain people below will definitely relieve him of his jurisdiction and obligations over Bozhou. It is also a Chinese idiom to push an inch. I think it can describe this kind of conflict between your mountain and Han people. Then we Jianzhou Jurchen and Like Liaodong, in this situation, we feel that we need to cooperate."

  Yang Kedong has a slightly better attitude towards this person, because the person who said this meant reliability, not rhetoric.

"Brother, I don't think we can talk about anything sitting here. There are two people who are in charge of me outside the door. If you two don't want to be watched by Captain Long, you'd better leave early. People." Yang Kedong glanced at Daishan who was already full of anger, "If you really have any ideas, we can find another safer place."

   "But Mr. Yang, we talked with you, you can guarantee..."

Before Natu finished speaking, Yang Kedong waved his hands around, "Don't, I can't promise anything, just like if I made a promise and signed it, I don't have to admit it, but I personally think that if the time is right, it will be beneficial to both of you and me." Under the tendency of the plan, there is no agreement and covenant, and it can still play a great role."

   Are there any more of those?
