Tokyo city. Qinbei Pavilion
Sun Lei and others were fully prepared, and everyone entered the city easily with the evidence in hand. Lu Zhishen and Gongsun Sheng were genuine monks. Once the disk was released, the guards did not even need to check.
"This is it! Our Liang Shanbo's underground transportation station in Tokyo."
Sun Lei pointed to the secluded courtyard with the closed door in front of him, which was where Shi Qian and the others settled.
Cao Zheng quickly stepped forward and knocked on the door. A code was quickly heard from inside the door.
"elder brother!"
Shi Qian and Ma Lin opened the door and welcomed Sun Lei and others in. They saluted Sun Lei in the yard.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Sun Lei smiled and helped Shi Qian and Ma Lin up, looking at Shi Qian who hadn't seen him for many days and said.
"It's hard work for my brother to work for Liangshan, but it's not hard for me."
Shi Qian said seriously that he was not miserable at all in Tokyo.
"Great Sage, Master!"
When Zhang San, the mouse crossing the street, and Li Si, the grass snake, saw Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen, they threw themselves in front of them excitedly, hugged their legs and cried.
"What are you two doing?"
Lu Zhishen looked at the two of them in confusion.
"These two people usually miss the master and their brother. They say that the days following the master and their brother are the best days in their lives. It is inevitable to be excited when they meet today."
Shi Qian explained.
"Two prodigies, get up. No good man the Sa family knows has such a womanly attitude!"
Lu Zhishen picked up Zhang San and Li Si one by one, as if he had thrown them into a manure pit.
Zhang San and Li Si finally stopped crying. For the street gangsters who had never been taken seriously by anyone, they now have a house to live in, money to spend, and the opportunity to become heroes in Liangshan. This is something they never had before. Dare to think.
"Brothers, please come in quickly!"
Ma Lin smiled and invited everyone to come into the house. The yard faced the street. Although it was secluded, people would inevitably pass by, so it was best to go inside.
Entering the house, Zhang San and Li Si quickly handed Sun Lei the information they had collected during this period. For this information, they had to travel around Tokyo every day, and one pair of shoes would wear out in three days.
Sun Lei looked at the thick books and nodded. However, he did not look through them. Instead, he handed them to Xiao Jiasui, Gongsun Sheng, and Wen Huanzhang. Now that these three people are Liangshanbo military advisors, they are naturally responsible for this intelligence analysis work. .
Sun Lei asked Shi Qian and Ma Lin about what happened in Tokyo during this time.
"Brother, the only thing that has happened in the past few days is that Teacher Xu from the Golden Gun Class was imprisoned by Gao Qiu."
Shi Qian and Ma Lin looked at each other before speaking.
"Teacher Xu of the Golden Spear Class? Xu Ning of the Golden Spear Class? Isn't he the teacher of the Imperial Golden Spear Class? This position seems to be hereditary. A person who often appears in front of the emperor can be considered a good old man and has no grievances against Gao Qiu. Why? Being thrown into prison?"
Sun Lei asked in confusion. Xu Ning was considered an honest person. The original work was sold by his cousin Tang Long, and was lured away by Shi Qian who stole the family's golden circle armor of wild goose feathers. His family was also tricked into Liangshan. Xu Ning was afraid that he had to leave the grass.
"The Sa family has also heard about Xu Ning. I heard that he has the family's inherited hook, sickle and spear skills, and is best at dealing with cavalry. In the early years of the Great War between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty, his ancestors relied on this hook, sickle and spear skills to achieve great success. His majesty was appreciated by the emperor, so he was promoted to the teacher of the Imperial Golden Spear Class."
Lu Zhishen said, Xu Ning's official position seems to be just that of a teacher, but it is different from the general instructors of the Forbidden Army. Xu Ning is the hereditary personal guard in front of the emperor. Every time the emperor travels, he must lead an armed guard in front of him. His status is extraordinary. generally.
"Brother, you have to ask Brother Ma Lin about this. He was there that day."
Shi Qian pointed at Ma Lin and said.
"Just there?"
Sun Lei looked at Ma Lin in surprise. It seemed that Ma Lin was doing a good job in underground intelligence work.
"I'm going to make my brother laugh. My little brother is just an idle guy and knows how to play a good flute. It was Gao Qiu's birthday a few days ago, so I sneaked into the Taiwei Mansion with this team to perform."
Ma Lin smiled sheepishly. The other brothers on the mountain were all very talented, but he was the only one who was not good at it.
"This is also a good skill. Apart from you, no one in Liang Shan Bo would dare to hang out at Gao Qiu's birthday banquet to gather information, haha!"
Sun Lei said with a smile, there is no distinction between high and low skills, if you use them well, they are all good.
"Thank you, brother. At the birthday banquet for Gao Qiu that day, all the officials in Tokyo went to congratulate him. Even Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Fu, Liang Shicheng and others attended. Gao Qiu earned a lot of face. However, the emperor also sent someone during the banquet. He sent gifts and decreed that Gao Qiu was the mainstay of the Song Dynasty’s military circles and the pillar of the country.”
"After that, the atmosphere of the banquet changed. Gao Qiu was complacent and showed no humility at all. The faces of Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Fu, Liang Shicheng and others present were a little ugly."
"After that, Tong Guan put on the Mingguang Armor he brought and said that it was the result of killing enemy generals with his own hands when he led the Western Army to fight the Xixia people in his early years. He also pointed to the knife marks on the armor and introduced it. Those left behind by the enemy.”
Ma Lin started talking about what happened in Taiwei's mansion that day.
"It seems that this is the cause of the conflict. Zhao Ji shouldn't have any rewards for Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others' birthdays this year, right?"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and asked.
"No, there are too many ministers who celebrate their birthdays every year. The emperor's reward is an honor, so it's okay not to reward them. It would be worthless if everyone gave them."
Shi Qian replied.
"Cai Jing is now the Grand Master and the Prime Minister. He is the head of the civil servants in the world and is called the "Gong Xiang" by the people. Tong Guan is the Privy Envoy, in charge of the Privy Council and the Western Army. He is needed to mobilize all the troops in the world. He is called the "Prince Xiang" by the people. "; Liang Shicheng is now the Grand Tutor of the School, the Grand Lieutenant of the School, and the Third Division of the Kaifu Yitong. He has committed corruption, accepted bribes, sold his official position, and committed all kinds of evil. He is known as the "Hidden Prime Minister" among the people."
"These three people did not show any expressions during their birthdays. They gave Gao Qiu such a high praise alone. They really favored one over the other. They also said in public that Gao Qiu was the mainstay of the army. It is no wonder that Tong Guan refutes Gao Qiu's face. Although Tong Guan is greedy, this Privy Council envoy But he was fighting on the border with swords and guns. It doesn't matter if he wants a flattering minister who is only afraid of flattery and is the captain of the third government office. If he is so elevated, Tong Guan will naturally not accept it. If he doesn't express his feelings, this military world The position of the elder can no longer be kept."
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"When Tong Guan talked about it, Cai Jing and others applauded him one after another, praising Tong Guan for his hard work and hard work in protecting his family and country, which made everyone also applaud. They all praised Tong Guan for his victorious battles and unparalleled military achievements. He was the first general in the Song Dynasty. .”
"Gao Qiu was not happy after hearing this. He had no achievements to boast about. Looking at Tong Guan's Mingguang Armor, he could only get angry. At this time, Gao Qiu's confidant Li Yuhou told Gao Qiu about Xu Ning. There is a set of family heirloom armor, which can be compared with Tong Guan."
"It is said that Xu Ning's family has a piece of "Golden Armor with Wild Goose Feathers" that has been passed down for four generations, also known as "Sai Tang Ni". It is said that Tang Ni was the protective armor of Lu Bu, the most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms period. It was almost invulnerable. . And this gold armor with a circle of wild goose feathers is said to have been woven by the Nine Heavens Xuannv from the feathers of a wild goose on the top of Kunlun Mountain when the world was first divided into chaos. It is said to be better than Tang Ni."
"Gao Qiu was overjoyed after hearing this. He can't compare to Tong Guan in terms of military merit, but if he could have a better armor than Tong Guan, he would be able to outdo Tong Guan if he wore it."
"Xu Ning was also present to celebrate his birthday at that time. Gao Qiu called Xu Ning and said that he wanted to borrow the Xu family's golden goose feather ring armor. He said that he wanted to wear it for his birthday, and then returned it to Xu Ning."
Ma Lin said.
