"Yang Bing, tell me, what did you and Zhang Yi talk about yesterday! Tell me honestly!" Wan Qi Kerr was riding on horseback, interrogating Yang Bing with a suspicious look on his face.
"Hey, you've asked me all the way. It's endless." Yang Bing was very impatient. Ever since he went to the banquet from Taiyue Tower last night, Wan Qi Kerer kept asking him what he and Zhang Yi had talked about. This annoyed Yang Bing very much.
"Huh, you two must have nothing to do with each other! Come on!" Wan Qi Ke'er pouted and rode towards the front of the team.
Yang Bing, on the other hand, was sitting on the horse thinking about what Zhang Yi said last night.
When we arrived at Taiyue Tower last night, Zhang Yi was very enthusiastic. In the eyes of others, the two of them seemed to have been friends for many years.
At the beginning, the two of them just chatted about some interesting things about romance, but when the wine was over and the food was over, Zhang Yi changed the subject and started chatting about state affairs.
"I heard that General Yang was brave and resourceful. He defeated tens of thousands of Tatar soldiers with a little trick in the battle of Jincheng. He is really a role model for us." Zhang Yi raised his glass in toast, and Yang Bing also raised his glass, thinking to himself, finally Let’s get to the point.
"Brother Zhang received the award, it's nothing more than a fluke."
"Luck depends on the person. Not everyone can be so lucky, are you right, Brother Yang?" Seeing that Yang Bing didn't speak, Zhang opened his mouth and continued: "Brother Yang, I drank the wine and ate the food. , it’s time for us to talk about business.”
"Sure enough, there is no free food and drink in the world." Thinking of this, Yang Bing clasped his hands and said, "Brother Zhang, can you give me some advice?"
"I believe that Brother Yang already knew the person behind me before he came here, so I came today just to win over Brother Yang and work for the imperial concubine." Zhang Yi was so straightforward that Yang Bing couldn't believe it.
"Haha, I didn't understand what Brother Zhang said." Yang Bing became cautious. As the saying goes, villains have to be on guard. As soon as he saw Zhang Yi today, Yang Bing unconsciously put a certain amount of pressure on him. Little man's hat.
"Hahaha, brother Yang, please stop pretending to be confused. Your Majesty currently values the prince, but the prince is too benevolent and has no real ability to hold power." Zhang Yi was very courageous and dared to say this in front of Yang Bing for the first time. He is not worried at all that Yang Bing will file a complaint against him.
However, Zhang Yi's words did speak to Yang Bing's heart. Prince Zhu Di was indeed too kind. Take the matter of the craftsmen this time. Without Yang Bing's strategy, Zhu Di would really have disappointed Zhu Yuanzhang. .
Yang Bing smiled slightly and stared at Zhang Yi in a low voice: "Brother Zhang said this to me, aren't you afraid that I will report it to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Hahaha, to tell you the truth, Yang Bing, if I was afraid that you would tell the prince, I wouldn't have invited you here. You are a smart man, and you can actually have better help." Zhang Yi no longer looked like he was joking and complimenting.
"Haha, I'd better forgive Brother Zhang. I, Yang Bing, have no intention of assisting anyone. Everything I do is for the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty." Yang Bing had to use Zhu Yuanzhang as a shield.
"Hahaha, I heard in the past that Brother Yang is a playboy who only knows about fun and enjoyment all day long, but now that I see him, Zhang has to listen to the rumors again." Zhang Yi clapped his hands after finishing speaking: "Bring it in Bar."
As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, two beautiful women walked in from outside, carrying a small box and placed it on the table to open it.
I saw that it was covered with gold bars, and two women were standing behind the box.
"Brother Yang, this little greeting gift is not respectful, so please accept it."
At this time Luo Wen also walked in and stood behind Yang Bing, looking at Zhang Yi coldly without saying a word.
"No reward for no merit, Brother Zhang should take it back." Yang Bing returned the gold bar. It would be a lie to say that Yang Bing was not moved after seeing so much money, but if he just accepted it directly, Yang Bingyi was afraid that there would be ears through the wall. , but felt that if he accepted it rashly, Zhang Yi would definitely make a fuss about it, and even if he wanted to accept it, he would have to shirk it.
"Why should General Yang be so cautious? No one knows about you and me drinking here today." Zhang Yi returned the gold bar again.
Before Yang Bing could speak, Zhang Yi stood up and left. When he walked to the door of the room, he seemed to think of something again: "Brother Yang, Zhang will have a few words with you at the end."
"Please speak." Yang Bing also walked out, and the two of them came to the fence on the third floor.
"General Yang, don't worry. Although I don't think highly of His Highness the Crown Prince, I have no ill will towards General Yang and the Ming Dynasty. On the contrary, I hope that the Ming Dynasty can be led by a truly wise king. It's a pity that the wise king in my eyes is not His Highness the Prince."
"Haha, there are a hundred wise kings in the eyes of a hundred people, and there are ten thousand kings in the eyes of ten thousand people. Maybe His Highness the Crown Prince is really not suitable to be a king, but at least now, the Crown Prince is still in that position, and I hope Brother Zhang will do something. I have thought clearly before that once we take that step, it will not be a fight between you and me, but a fight among the people of the world." Yang Bing was very reluctant to fight in his heart, because no matter when a war started, it would be a fight in the end. Those at the bottom are the ones who suffer. They do nothing, they don’t even know anything, but they have to bear the wrath of the war.
Zhang Yi felt a lot after hearing Yang Bing's words: "Brother Yang, you have learned a lesson."
"But I still have to remind Brother Yang, be careful of the Lin family, they can move faster than me."
Yang Bing disagreed: "I've known it for a long time. Although the dispute between Lin Feng and I has not come to light, everyone in Kyoto knows about it."
When Zhang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, and walked towards the stairs behind Yang Bing. When he passed by Yang Bing, Zhang said in a low voice: "General Yang, please think about this time." close!"
Zhang walked downstairs without looking back, leaving Yang Bing standing there. He didn't know whether to believe Zhang Yi's words. According to Zhang Yi's words, the Tatar army in Tongtian Pass this time included the Lin family. However, Yang Bing had some doubts. Is the Lin family really willing to cooperate with the Tatars?
"Young Master, Young Master?" Luo Wen stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Yang Bing's eyes.
"Huh? Oh, let's go home."
Luo Wen pointed at the gold bars on the table without saying anything, meaning what should I do?
"Take it, don't give it up." Yang Bing walked over and closed the box, lifted it up and left.
I have to say that these gold bars are very heavy. Yang Bing weighed them at about twenty kilograms. This is his own private money. With this money, he can do many things.
Yang Bing and Luo Wen walked out of the room and were about to leave, but the two women behind them followed them.
"Stop!" Luo Wen stopped the two women alertly.
"General, we were bought by Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang said that you want us to follow you." One of the women explained timidly.
Yang Bing was dumbfounded. He had an explanation after taking back twenty kilograms of gold bars, but taking back two beautiful girls, Wan Qi Keer might be able to shake things up.
"Uh, no need, you go back." Yang Bing waved his hand. He didn't want to take this hot potato. Besides, who knew whether the two of them were spies sent by Zhang Yi.
The two women looked at each other and knelt down directly to Yang Bing: "General, just accept us. We have no place to go. We are from Jincheng. The Tatars will cause trouble when they enter the city." We two sisters, it was the general who led the troops to save us."
Yang Bing frowned: "Then how did you get here?"
"In the battle of Jincheng, all our family members were killed by the Tatars. The two of us could only rely on each other to go to Beiliu City to join our cousin's family. However, when we arrived in Beiliu, we found that our cousin's family had also been killed. We could only beg along the streets. We happened to hear that a group of craftsmen were going back to Kyoto. We thought we had nowhere to go, so we wanted to follow them to Kyoto to see if we could make a living." The woman who spoke had tears streaming down her face. I burst into tears.
Another woman continued: "As soon as we arrived in Kyoto, we were targeted and kidnapped by the Yahang people. They changed hands several times, and finally got into the hands of Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang also overheard us talking, and then he discovered We are also related to the general, so we came here with our two sisters."
With many years of interrogation experience, Yang Bing saw that they were not lying, but he really couldn't bring the two beautiful girls back.
Seeing that Yang Bing was in trouble, the woman who spoke first knelt down in front of Yang Bing and said, "General, I just ask you to take us two in, even if you are just a maid in the same room."
"Oh, forget it, follow me, but you can't follow me, but him." Yang Bing stretched out a hand and pointed at Luo Wen, who had been silent.
"Ah?" Luo Wen was stunned, and then glanced at the two beauties kneeling on the ground. His dark face was actually a little red: "Young Master, how embarrassing this is."
Luo Wen started to squirm, but Yang Bing was so disgusted that he raised his leg and kicked him: "What are you thinking about?"
"You two go outside and wait first." Yang Bing said to the two women.
Seeing that Yang Bing agreed, the two people showed happy expressions on their faces and quickly stood up and exited the room.
"Young Master, do you have any orders?" Luo Wen saw the two women walking out and stopped joking. After following Yang Bing for such a long time, he also knew that Yang Bing must have something special at a time like this. arranged.
"Well, you take the two of them back to the military camp and train with them, but you have to train them alone. The fewer people who know about it, the better."
Luo Wen didn't know what Yang Bing was going to do: "Young Master, two women, isn't this appropriate?"
"What's inappropriate? Isn't the young lady also a heroine?" Yang Bing put down the gold bar and said with a serious expression: "Luo Wen, this time we rushed to Tongtian Pass to support the fourth prince. Although you won't go, I can't let you go." You are just resting in Kyoto, and I want you to set up our own intelligence network!"
Luo Wen immediately understood Yang Bing's intention. Yang Bing can now be said to have a strong army. Not only is he in charge of his own army of tens of thousands, but he has also trained black armored guards who can fight one against ten. However, he only lacks his own intelligence. Department, a lot of information is known through the personnel, which is absolutely impossible in Kyoto.
So when he saw these two women, Yang Bing came up with the idea of forming his own intelligence team.
"Yes, young master." Luo Wen also knew the importance of the matter.
"However, you still have to take the time to send someone to find out the details of these two people. I believe you can see if they have second thoughts. If it is true as they said, you will train them well, but you found that there is something else behind them. Kill him directly! No need to report to me!" Yang Bing finally understood today. If he wants to survive in Kyoto, he must not be soft-hearted. Otherwise, even if you are the prince, someone will be thinking about you behind your back.
"I understand, young master, don't worry."
"Well, let them come in."
The two walked in: "General."
"Well, what are your names?"
"Shan Qin." "Shan Lu."
Yang Bing looked at the two people who didn't look alike and was a little confused: "Are you sisters?"
"Yes, General." The man named Shan Qin replied.
"But why don't they look alike?"
"I was born to my father's eldest wife, and my sister was born to my concubine." Shan Qin was obviously the elder sister, and she was more courageous in speaking than her younger sister.
Shan Lu kept her head down, not daring to speak or look at Yang Bing.
"Oh, it's rare that such sisters can get along so well."
Shan Qin smiled bitterly: "Although my sister and I were not born from the same mother, we grew up together, so our relationship is naturally much better."
"Well, in that case, you should follow him from today." Yang Bing pointed at Luo Wen: "His name is Luo Wen. He is my personal guard and a top expert in the world. I want you two to follow him and work for me. Are you willing to inquire about various things in the world?"
When Shan Qin and Shan Lu saw that Yang Bing wanted to take them in, they quickly agreed: "We are willing, general. In order to repay the kindness, we will have no regrets even if we die!"
"Okay, Luo Wen."
"Little Lord."
"I'll leave them to you. Train them properly first and don't let them appear in front of anyone. Only the four of us know what's going on here. If anyone else knows, I'll kill you!" Yang Bing said aggressively said.
"Yes, young master!" Luo Wen knelt down. He also knew the importance of information to Yang Bing and him, so he was very cautious.
"Okay! Then they will follow you today!" After Yang Bing said that, he picked up the gold bar and ran away, leaving only sisters Luo Wen and Shan Qin Shan Lu looking at each other.
