Mrs. Kong waved her hand: "He is very busy right now, so there is no need for him now."
The people in the room didn't speak anymore, and the boy left after a while.
Seeing this, Shi En turned around and returned to Su Mansion.
"Who is Mrs. Zhang?"
"I didn't know that. That's all they said. If there's nothing else, I'll go to bed first."
"Wait a minute, Master."
Su Yixin chased her out of the study and looked at Shi En with a smile: "Master, you can't sleep at night. Please go out of the capital."
"What?"
Shi En picked his ears and said, "Leaving the capital? This little girl is really good at calling people. I haven't even taken a breath yet."
"Master, my good master, you can't rest for such a small thing as stalking people. Don't worry, if things go well this time, I will prepare delicious food for you for three days in a row, and there will be surprises for you then. oh."
Seeing how sincere Su Yixin was, Shi En reluctantly agreed.
"What do you want to do as a teacher?"
"Master Zeng will arrive in Beijing tomorrow around Sisi. You will guard the city gate and help Master Zeng make the matter bigger. The bigger the better, but be careful not to hurt innocent people."
"Okay, who asked me to be your master? Don't worry, I will definitely handle this beautifully."
After Shi En finished speaking, he went back to his yard to sleep.
Su Yixin sat back on the warm couch, looked at Gu Qingjue and asked, "Who is Mrs. Zhang in Madam Kong's mouth?"
Gu Qingjue held the roster in his hand and pointed his slender fingers at a person in the roster.
Su Yixin was surprised and said: "Zhang Dexiang? Zhang Xiang's wife?"
Zhang Dexiang was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Xianping. In the fifth year of Jingde, when the late emperor was about to consecrate Mount Tai to Zen, Zhang Dexiang was promoted to the position of Prime Minister in the palace because of his ability in handling affairs.
Soon after, Yang Yi believed that Zhang Dexiang had the talent to assist the prince and recommended him to the court. Then he was called to take the exam and became a judge for the Zhizhi embassy, appeasement of Tokyo, and Quan Sansi.
Zhang Dexiang was an official and did not rely on any powerful people. He was highly valued by today's officials. In the fourth year of his birth, Zhang Dexiang was promoted to a bachelor of the Imperial Academy. In the third year of Jingyou's reign, he was promoted to Tongzhi Privy Councilor and Minister of Household Affairs.
During his years as a Beijing official, he had interacted with ministers, and everyone praised him as an "elder".
In the first year of Baoyuan, Bai Tongzhongshu's family was in peace.
That is, the prime minister.
The reason why Su Yixin was surprised was that in later generations she followed her master and lived in the mountains. Apart from practicing, she just talked about these histories to pass the time.
She was not very interested in any dynasty or dynasty, but the Song Dynasty, which had an unusually prosperous economy, was the dynasty with the weakest military, so every time the master talked, she listened attentively to what he said.
As for the celebrities of the Song Dynasty, the one that impressed her most was not Fan Chongyan and others, but Zhang Dexiang.
Maybe Master prefers this person.
The description of him is mixed with many personal factors and describes him as very upright. Until he has been the prime minister for eight years, he does not need to appoint any relatives or friends.
The officials respected Zhang Dexiang very much.
The government was committed to innovation. Although Zhang Dexiang did not hold any objections, he did not have any suggestions.
Therefore, he was impeached several times by Sun Kang, the censor. He behaved as if he was in a high position but had no achievements. He asked the officials to remove him, but the officials refused many times.
But for such a person, how could his wife be involved with Kong Chong's wife?
"Zhang Dexiang's wife, Mrs. Huang, is the grandmother of Xin Zisheng, who is on the same list as me this year. The Xin family had a relationship in the Sui Dynasty, and then disappeared from the public. It was not easy for the Xin family daughter to marry Zhang Dexiang, and it took so many years of hard work. To become the prime minister's wife. Naturally, I want to use the power of the Xin family to gain a firm foothold in the court."
"Xiang Zhang has been the prime minister for eight years and has not reported them. How can he speak for his wife's natal family at this critical moment?"
Gu Qingjue nodded: "Maybe it is because of this that the Xin family wanted to use their connections to support the Xin family during the last moment of Zhang Dexiang's reign."
What Gu Qingjue said was not just speculation.
But one time, several students from the same class went to Baifanlou to drink. He happened to be passing by at that time and overheard Xin Zisheng talking about the Xin family. He then made an inference based on what happened during this period.
"I hope the Xin family is not deeply involved."
Regarding Zhang Dexiang, whether he heard it from his master or came here by chance and saw it, this person is worthy of respect.
There is nothing wrong with the reform of the imperial court.
Zhang Xiang was already old, so he did not hold any objections, but just kept silent. Su Yixin felt that this was already very valuable.
Don't be too harsh.
The next day, Zeng Shengji arrived in Beijing with Qiu Hong.
When they were at the gate of the city, they encountered a wave of assassinations. Twenty or thirty men in black, all of them elite, held long swords and aimed them accurately at Zeng Shengji and Qiu Hong.
Qiu Hong's face turned pale with fright.
After living a leisurely life in Wangjia Village for several years, he almost forgot that he had also participated in the extermination of the Zeng family.
The man behind the scenes now knows that he is still alive and is coming to silence him.
"Brother Jingyong, what should we do?"
Zeng Shengji drew out the Feihong Sword and said to Qiu Hong in a deep voice: "Don't run around. When the fight starts, stay by my side."
Zeng Shengji had just finished speaking.
The men in black surrounded him with a clear goal, which was to kill Qiu Hong.
Even if Qiu Hong shrank into a quail, he felt sword energy coming from all directions towards his face.
However, before he could reach him, Zeng Shengji blocked him with his sword.
"Kill that man at all costs."
"yes."
Seeing Zeng Shengji's tight defense, the men in black had no choice but to change their tactics. Five or six of the men in black changed their long swords into small crossbows.
Once this thing is fired, it will accidentally injure people.
No matter how good Zeng Shengji's martial arts skills were, he would still be unable to defeat four hands with two fists.
Shi En was sitting in a nearby shop eating noodles. He waited for the man in black to take out a small crossbow and then slapped the table. The chopsticks on the table stopped in mid-air due to the spiritual power mobilized by Shi En. Then he turned his wrist outwards, and dozens of chopsticks seemed to have eyes, aiming at the foreheads of more than a dozen men in black.
Before the men in black could react, they all fell to the ground and died, with plasma spraying all over the ground.
The dozen or so people who were still alive swallowed involuntarily and retreated without a trace.
Old God Shi En waited for the man in black to retreat for a while before following him.
With Zeng Shengji protecting him, Qiu Hong moved into the Su Mansion without any danger.
The news of an assassination at the city gate soon reached Zhao Zhen's ears, and Zhao Zhen urgently summoned Kong Chong into the palace for questioning.
"Kong Qing, the defense of Beijing is under your jurisdiction. Just now, there was an assassination in Kyoto City. This has to make me doubt your ability to manage the Privy Council well."
Zhao Zhen's tone was unusually harsh.
Kong Chong was so shocked that his forehead was covered with sweat, and he knelt down with a pop: "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Kong Chong lowered his head and secretly cursed the other party for being treacherous.
After being yelled at by an official, he finally came to his senses.
He said that there had been no clues about Qiu Hong for several years, so why did he suddenly receive news that Qiu Hong had come to Beijing.
