Chapter 033 Sneak into Yongle City

Gao Yu stopped. He turned his head slightly. There was a trace of disappointment on Tong Guan's black face, and this look added some sadness to the image of a tough man. Gao Yu suddenly thought that Tong Guan and Yue Xia were imprisoned in the deep palace together. When Yue Xia gave birth to their eldest son, Tong Guan was twelve or thirteen years old. For that Gang The newborn younger brother, Tong Guan is novel and loves,

Birthmark, a sentence to wake up Gao Yu, he turned around and sat down again, lifting his sleeves and looking at his left arm: "So General Tong deliberately wants to see if there is a birthmark on my arm."

Dong Guan nodded by default,

"May I take the liberty to ask who General Tong is looking for?"

"The son of a godfather was rumored to have died in Xixia in the early years. Recently, I heard that he appeared again."

"Then who is your godfather and who is his son?"

Tong Guan looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's a pity that his godfather died is not clear. His adoptive father went on an expedition to the Japanese slave country during the reign of Emperor Yingzong and did not return to Beijing. An accident happened to his family. The child was taken away by the Western Xia people without seeing his adoptive father." He was a little choked when he spoke,

This past is like a movie in Gao Yu's mind: "So you think I may be the son of your godfather. What's his name? How old is he this year?"

Tong Guan looked up and down at Gao Yu and squeezed out a reluctant smile: "To tell you the truth, you really look like your godfather. My godfather's son hasn't had time to name it. There is only one breast name stone. This name is also due to one of his birthmarks. If the little stone is really alive, it will be ten** now."

Gao Yu lowered his head and smiled sadly: "I'm not him. General Tong, you're a little disappointed."

"It doesn't matter if it's not. Is it fate to know the prince? Let's go." Tong Guan said and got up, ready to continue his journey,

Everyone got on the horse again, and Tong Guan threw 20 or 30 copper coins to the tea stall owner. The stall owner smiled and blossomed with a smile on his face,

When I went on the road again, the speed slowed down a lot. Tong Guan asked, "I have been near Yanzhou for a few months. Why didn't I know that there was such a young master in the Salt Gang?"

Gao Yu said, "I have just taken office. Queen Xixia Liang is angry about the salt help Zhou Xuan's border and wants to take the opportunity to eradicate the salt help, so we find such a cliff to live in the border. If not the case, who doesn't want to live a stable life?"

"So, why didn't you cooperate with Song Jun?"

"Hehe, the salt gang is just businessmen. They can't do anything. What can they do to cooperate with the army?" Gao Yu smiled calmly,

Tong Guan said seriously, "That's not necessarily true. The salt gang is familiar with the business of the two states and the terrain, and I think the salt gang that the prince says must be smuggling private salt. The private salt gang often knows more about the defensive weaknesses of the border and some conventional and rare terrain, just like your cottages. If I hadn't been looking for traces. I'm afraid it's hard to find it if I don't give up chasing this horse.

"The general's words are not right. Although the salt gang is familiar with the route, it hides secretly at most, which is meaningless for attacking the city. What's more, I want to cooperate with the Song army, and I also join the army without a name. I don't know whose army to join. The Song army may not pay attention to us who make private salt."

The two talked while walking. There was no estrangement of meeting for the first time. Instead, they were like old friends who had not seen each other for many years. Tong Guan pointed to the towering city that could be seen not far away: "In front of them is Yongle City. If you want, I can introduce you to the leader, so that you don't have to be in the deep mountains. Avoid it for a while, or you can find some serious errands.

Gao Yu knew that Tong Guan was kind-hearted, but he didn't want to do anything in the Song army, but he was quite able to see his friends in the past, especially not letting Tong Guan see the flaws. Gao Yu said happily, "Oh, that's too much thank General Tong. You and I met each other. The general took care of me so much that I didn't know how to thank. It's you."

"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, thank you for your appearance." Tong Guan said faintly, and the group entered Yongle City,

Yongle City is not so much a city as a barracks. The newly built city is in orderly and orderly. There are some private houses not far from the city. Most of them are spontaneously formed surrounding households to avoid the city, and there are also daily supply of civilians in the city, and then go to the city. The huge military camps and government offices stand in the city. ,

If you want to look for any business opportunities in the city, it is almost impossible, but seeing the formation in the city, if it is a border defense, it is very suitable. The terrain is not only easy to defend, but also the troops can attack Xixia in one fell swoop.

Gao Yu observed the city. If there was no Tong Guan leading the way, he really couldn't get in. He looked at the people flowing in and out of the city, but the whole city was very strict. There were many soldiers on the city. The soldiers guarding the city also carefully looked at everyone's entry and exit. A pair of guarded eyes glanced at the flow of people, and the city was everywhere in the city. It can be seen that the soldiers lined up to patrol, and even if they enter the city, it is also a question to leave the city.

But all this is not a question for Gao Yu now. The reason why he wants to enter Yongle City is nothing more than to see Shen Kuo. Since he came in, he didn't think that he would go out smoothly, but the only thing that surprised him was that he was brought in by Tong Guan, and now Tong Guan's identity is probably Chen. The reason why Kang flashed his words,

Before the group came to the government office, they got off their horses one after another. Tong Guan said to Gao Yu, "You wait for me here." Then he strode into the government office with two soldiers,

Gao Yu and Zuoning tied the horse to the tree. Gao Yu sat down in the shade of the tree. The soldiers who followed Tong Guan stood not far away and pointed to Gao Yu with a sneer. Zuoning frowned and asked in a low voice, "Sir, I saw if the eunuch surnamed Tong liked you. Look, those soldiers are laughing secretly. You said he tore it. Does your sleeve imply any fetish?

"When you just tore my shirt and sleeves, you are implying the habit of breaking sleeves." Gao Yu couldn't help smiling bitterly. Emperor Ai's deep love for Dong Xian can be used as an example: It is said that one day, Emperor Ai woke up one morning and saw that Dong Xian was still asleep. Emperor Ai wanted to pull back his sleeves, but he couldn't bear to disturb Dong Xian. However, his sleeves were pressed by Dong Xian's body and could not be taken out, but he still had something to do with him. When he woke up, he was in a hurry. Emperor Ai actually pulled out his sword from the head of the bed, cut off his sleeves, and then quietly went out. Therefore, later generations called his love for men "broken sleeve fetish",

This allusion is well known to the world. Zoning nodded in a matter of the matter: "Sir, I see that Tong Guan is attentive. It must be a traitor or a thief. You have to be careful."

Gao Yu listened to it, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The feelings between the godfather and son suddenly became friends. "What are you thinking? If Tong Guan has this hobby, it is also to break his own sleeve. It's unreasonable to pull my sleeve. Besides, don't you know that Tong Guan is the adopted son next to the king? If he stays in Yongle City and wait for Prince Liang to come. It is estimated that it will be exposed.

"Do you want to find a chance..." Zuoning said with a flash in his eyes, and he quietly made a killing in his hand,

"No, it's easy to startle the snake. Now let's take a look at it first. Maybe I won't let Prince Liang enter the city at all."

Hearing Gao Yu's words, Zoning put away the murderous spirit in his eyes. Gao Yu knew that with Zoning's skills, it was not difficult for him to assassinate Tong Guan. Although he was angry, hateful and distressed to be an eunuch for Tong Guan, he didn't want to hurt Tong Guan before he figured out the truth, not to mention that maybe now, except for Rouer, Tong Guan is the only The closest person who knows his son, the real situation of Little Stone,

Thinking of Liang Yibu, Gao Yu is also very entangled. Although Liang Yibu is the same age as his son, it is not necessarily his own child. If Zhang Chang is telling the truth, at least this child is not Liang Yibu's biological son. Unexpectedly, Liang Yibu's life is also entangled. Then he knows his own life. How much is it?

Waiting for Tong Guan, Gao Yu looked at the hazy visible mountain cliffs outside the city. There was a cliff followed by his own horizontal cottage. In a few days, his brothers would take advantage of the war between Xixia and Song to do a big thing. Gao Yu frowned slightly. This kind of depth seemed to be in contrast to his early twenties. < /P>

A soldier came out of the government office and walked to Gao Yu: "Hey, okay, Shen Jing, a scholar of Longtuge University, wants to see you. Come in with me."

Shen Jingluo refers to Shen Kuo's official position. Now he is a little appeasement envoy. The Song people do not call adults, and they are often called official positions. But in the Song Dynasty, there are many official titles, so the name is relatively chaotic. Fortunately, Gao Yu is used to it. He followed the soldiers into the government office and walked through the centralized office courtyard. The second entrance was wide. The courtyard, the unused corner door leads to the official's respective office courtyard, and then it is estimated to be a playground for military use. The structure of this kind of courtyard is not strange, but the whole government office is the most basic architectural structure. There are not too many carved beams and painted buildings, and there are no luxurious furnishings. Most of them are practical, which also have to admire Shen Kuo. Yongle City can be built in such a short time, and although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

Follow the soldiers into a small courtyard and walk towards the main room. Hearing the sound that seemed to be very lively inside, the voice that Gao Yu could hear was Shen Kuo. Although the short and fat man was a little hoarse, his tone was still the same as that of the past. The voice that could also be heard was Tong Guan, and the voice was loud and full of laughter. In addition, there seemed to be other people in the room. , it is said to be in full swing,

"Try to Shen Jinglue that the person you want to meet has been brought." The soldier stood in the porch and reported loudly,

The room was quiet and heard Shen Kuo's straight voice: "Let him come in."

Gao Yu stepped up the steps and opened the door. On time, Chen said that it was about four or five o'clock in the afternoon. The light in the room was getting darker and darker, but it was not lit. A light shone in from behind him as Gao Yu pushed open the door. In this living room, Shen Kuo, who was in his fifties, was sitting head-on. He was slightly fat, and his beard was white. Tong Guan was sitting in the guest seat on the left, and a 60- or 70-year-old general was sitting in the guest seat on the right. There was a general who was similar to Tong Guan's age beside him. Gao Yu had recognized everyone here, and he was a little surprised to see Gao Yu.

Tong Guan immediately said, "Shen Jinglue, I didn't bring you the wrong person."
