Chapter 487 It’s really him
Chapter 487 It’s really him...
"Kang Laomiao praised it!"
Ye Zixun smiled and greeted Kang Xian politely.
Then, Kang Xian looked at Ning Yi and said, "How about it? After this time, you and Liang Shanbo have become friends. If you are interested, you might as well come to the Secret Investigation Department to help get rid of these troubles..."
Ning Yi smiled and shook his head: "Ning accepts Mr. Kang's kindness, but Ning has promised Mr. Qin before that he will go to Beijing soon. Regarding the banditry in Liangshan, Mr. Kang should choose another virtuous person!"
Kang Xian lamented: "That's such a pity..."
Ning Yi pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "However, this junior does have something to do and would like to ask the Jiangning Secret Investigation Department for help."
Kang Xian raised his eyebrows: "Tell me and listen."
Ning Yi signaled his wife Su Tan'er to leave with the shopkeeper of the Su family, and asked Kang Xianping to step back, and then told him everything about letting go of the Liangshan bandits and capturing Zhang Shun alive.
Kang Xian nodded thoughtfully after listening.
"I understand. You go back to Su's house first. If there is any news in two days, I will send someone to summon you..."
…
…
In September of the ninth year of Jinghan, the weather became colder and colder.
Light snow fell in Jiangning City for the first time in a long time. Ye Zixun sat on a stone bench by the Qinhuai River and played chess with Ning Yi.
The two beautiful women next to them, dressed in simple and elegant clothes and with graceful figures, like ladies in paintings, are holding paper umbrellas to protect them from the wind and snow, while curiously observing the situation on the chessboard.
These two women are Nie Yunzhu, Ning Yi's confidante, and Yuan Jin'er, the oiran who ran away from a brothel and defected to Nie Yunzhu.
Ning Yi returned to Jiangning. He first took his wife and others back to the Su family and met the relatives and friends of the Su family. Then he went out to Zhuji and told Nie Yunzhu and Yuan Jin'er the news of his safe return.
It can be seen that this woman does have a high status in Ning Yi's heart.
In fact, this is indeed the case. In the original plot, both Nie Yunzhu and Yuan Jin'er finally married Ning Yi.
"No more, no more!"
Ye Zixun suddenly surrendered and sighed helplessly: "I have promoted my chess skills to the national level, why can't I beat you?"
Ning Yi laughed: "The chess game is changing rapidly. The experience of a national player is not enough. You also need to adapt to changes and find tricks..."
Ye Zixun knew what he was talking about. The memory points of the Go masters he absorbed could only get their experience, but not their own Go talent. That was the most important thing.
Naturally, Nie Yunzhu and Yuan Jin'er didn't know these things.
Seeing that Ye Zixun was a little discouraged, Nie Yunzhu comforted him in a warm voice: "Young Master Ye is already very powerful. Ever since Prime Minister Qin set up a stall here to play chess, I have always been watching. There are few people who can fight Li Heng as hard as Young Master. It’s difficult to solve the problem.”
Ye Zihun glanced at her and felt no joy from it.
"...That's because I turned on the cheat!"
Nie Yunzhu was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "What is a plug-in?"
Ning Yi laughed and confused the plug-in problem.
Just when the two were about to set up another plate, a carriage suddenly came from a distance.
Everyone turned around and saw an old man getting out of the car and respectfully said to Ning Yi and Ye Zixun: "Mr. Ning, Mr. Ye, I have an invitation..."
It's the old servant next to Kang Xian!
Ning Yi and Ye Zixun looked at each other and told Nie Yunzhu to go home as soon as possible. Seeing them nodding, they boarded the carriage and signaled the old servant of the Prince Consort's Mansion to take them to see Kang Xian.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the attic of a teahouse owned by the Prince Consort's Mansion.
The old servant led the two people into the attic, climbed to the third floor, and walked through the long corridor to the compartment at the end of the corridor under the eager eyes of the guards on both sides.
Pushing open the door, Kang Xian stood there with an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.
"You are here..."
Kang Xian smiled and asked them to sit down, then looked at the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Tell them about it!"
"yes!"
The middle-aged man nodded respectfully and said in a deep voice: "After receiving the news from Mr. Ning, we urgently contacted our colleagues and wanted to ask them to send people to follow the Liangshan bandits. However, when they found traces of the Liangshan bandits, the group The person has left the city and disappeared into the mountains ten miles outside the county."
Ning Yi frowned and said, "So you lost track of me?"
The middle-aged man was a little ashamed: "There are experts among the Liangshan bandits who are good at crossing mountains, and they act unscrupulously..."
Ye Zixun rolled his eyes and interrupted unceremoniously: "Incompetence means incompetence. There are so many excuses - Mr. Kang, you came to our brothers just to tell us this news, right?"
"hehe……"
Kang Xian smiled, glanced at the middle-aged man who was already a little angry, pointed at Ye Zixun and said: "This is Ye Zixun from the Three Heroes of Tiannan."
The anger in the middle-aged man's eyes disappeared, replaced by deep fear: "It turns out to be Grandmaster Ye, whom I have admired for a long time!"
Kang Xian smiled and said, "Keep talking."
"yes."
The middle-aged man respectfully handed over his hand, and then continued: "Although the Liangshan bandit has disappeared, we still got the information that Mr. Ning entrusted the Secret Detective Division to investigate..."
"oh?"
"Before leaving the county, that group of Liangshan bandits went to slaughter the grain merchant Liu's family. After investigation, we found that they only took a small part of the new grain after the autumn harvest. Obviously grain was not their first target. "
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Ning Yi and Ye Zixun looked at each other.
The latter said with great interest: "Let me guess, there is a big force behind the Liu family, right?"
The middle-aged man nodded: "The head of the Liu family, Liu Yanjiang, had a clan girl who was very beautiful. For the sake of wealth, Liu Yanjiang married the clan girl to the second son of the Chen family in the capital as his concubine. Since then, the Liu family has Belonged to the Chen family in the capital..."
After finishing speaking, Kang Xian waved his hand, and the middle-aged man bowed his hand respectfully and slowly exited the room.
After he left, Kang Xian asked curiously: "When did you offend the Chen family?"
Ning Yi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Ning doesn't know either..."
Kang Xian looked at him deeply and suddenly said: "Chen Yayuan, the chief arrester of the six sects, died on the day the city of Hangzhou was destroyed. He was the top secret agent in Hangzhou."
Ning Yi said with emotion: "Mr. Chen died for his country, and Ning admires him very much... Is he also a member of the Chen family in the capital?"
Looking at the surprised look on Ning Yi's face, Kang Xian couldn't help but laugh.
"It seems that you are planning to solve it yourself... Well, I won't interfere too much. I will go to Beijing in a few days and see Prime Minister Qin. Remember to give me a message, saying that there is an old guy in Jiangning waiting for him to succeed. Now that I have grown up, I will retire and come back to play chess!"
"Ning took note of it!"
Ning Yi stood up with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Farewell."
After leaving the teahouse, Ning Yi glanced back at the attic behind him, with no emotion or anger on his face.
Ye Zixun smiled and said: "Look, let me tell you, Brother Wenren betrayed you."
Ning Yi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Wen Renfu'er is a direct descendant of Mr. Qin. He has no reason to betray me. And judging from Mr. Kang's attitude, he is not sure whether I killed Chen Yayuan."
"This shows that the news was not leaked from Wenren Fujie..."
Ye Zixun asked curiously: "Then how did the Chen family know about it?"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Zixun paused and looked at Ning Yi.
They discovered that they seemed to have missed a very important piece of information——
The time-traveler who was born into a royal family also knew the future plot!
After a long silence, Ning Yi smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that classmate Zhou is also a time traveler like you!"
The time traveler here refers to the time traveler who knows the plot of the son-in-law, not the indigenous time traveler like him.
Ye Zixun frowned tightly: "According to the original plot line, you will commit regicide and rebel in the future, and he is the second son of the current emperor. He does have the motive to kill you both emotionally and rationally, but... That’s not the case!”
"Everyone who has read the original work knows your talent well. Why doesn't he want to pull you into his camp?"
Ning Yi said lightly: "Only King Qin himself can know this..."
…
…
Kaifeng Prefecture is located at the tip of the huge alluvial plain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. It has fertile soil, suitable climate, key geographical location and convenient water and land transportation connecting the north and south.
The Xia Dynasty, which began in 2000 BC, established the capital of a dynasty here for the first time.
Over the next four thousand years, a total of ten dynasties established their capitals here.
In today's Wu Dynasty, which is the Song Dynasty in parallel time and space, Bianliang City in Kaifeng Prefecture has been the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. Under this city, there are traces of the ancient Xia Dynasty, the city wall of Daliang in the Warring States Period, and the Bianzhou City in the Tang Dynasty. Ruins.
Nowadays, times have changed, but this ancient capital of the Six Dynasties is still prosperous.
When they first arrived in Bianliang, Ning Yi and Ye Zixun were unfamiliar with each other.
Fortunately, the Su family is a giant businessman in Jiangning and also has business in Kyoto. As soon as they got off the boat, shopkeeper Liao from the capital came over with a smile on his face and said that he had arranged to stay in an inn, which was the largest and most expensive in Bianliang. Fuxiang Inn.
Ye Zixun said with a smile: "I appreciate the kindness of the shopkeeper Liao for my fourth brother. However, our brothers are going to Beijing this time at the invitation of Prime Minister Qin. We should wait until we meet Prime Minister Qin to tell you where to stay!"
As soon as the name of Prime Minister Qin came out, Shopkeeper Liao had nothing to say. He could only smile and say: "That's how it should be, that's how it should be!"
Ye Zixun frowned and said, "But why hasn't Prime Minister Qin sent someone over yet?"
Ning Yi smiled and said: "Maybe I haven't received the news yet..."
Ye Zixun rolled his eyes: "Do you believe this?"
Ning Yi smiled and said nothing.
If he was alone, without receiving an invitation from the Prime Minister's Palace, he would definitely find a place to stay first, then walk around the capital, waiting for someone from the Prime Minister's Palace to come and invite him.
After all, in the important place of the prime minister's palace, Ning Yi was just a white man and a son-in-law. In this era, he was not qualified to pay a visit.
But with Ye Zixun, the situation is completely different.
This guy is a veteran time traveler and is used to being unscrupulous. How can he stand this anger?
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ye Zixun immediately turned to look at Shopkeeper Liao.
"Where is the Prime Minister's Mansion? Take us there."
Shopkeeper Liao was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly nodded respectfully and invited the two of them onto the carriage.
