This may be a woman's innate nature. Fang Jinshi didn't feel that kissing her was any different from other women, but he felt a little hopeful in his heart.
He carried Liu Huanqing on his back and walked on the dark streets of Bianliang in the heavy rain. The thunder in the sky flashed from time to time in this big city. Even though the two of them were soaked through and fell into the mud several times, they finally arrived in front of a two-story building.
There was a faint light on the second floor of this small building. Fang Jinshi carried her to the eaves, looked upstairs, put Liu Huanqing down and said, "We're here."
Liu Huanqing stood on the ground, put away her umbrella, brushed her hair that was dripping with raindrops, threw the shoes she was holding on the ground, and said to Fang Jinshi, "Help me put on my shoes."
Her words clearly had a commanding tone. Fang Jinshi didn't feel dissatisfied. He squatted down and held her slender bare feet, putting on her wet shoes for her. A bolt of lightning flashed across Liu Huanqing's face, illuminating her clothes. He was soaked and looked indecent and embarrassed, but his expression held a sacred and inviolable look.
Fang Jinshi felt a chill in his heart. Her expression at this moment was really similar to that of Liang Cuirong when she didn't follow him. At that time, when she looked at the spies and assassins under her command, these people would be terrified. Liu Huanqing was like this at this moment. This look.
Fang Jinshi turned around and said to Liu Huanqing, "Let's go upstairs."
He walked to the front and walked upstairs on the wooden stairs. Liu Huanqing followed closely behind him. Fang Jinshi took her upstairs and stopped in front of the door. He reached out and knocked on the door a few times. Next, an old voice inside said: "Come in."
Fang Jinshi stretched out his hand to open the door and walked through the room. There was only a dim oil lamp with a bean-like head. In front of the broken table against the wall, a copper cauldron was burning. The water was boiling and the heat was rising. It's like the lid of the cauldron is about to be flushed off.
There were two people sitting on the left and right sides of the table, making tea and talking. The old man on the left was sitting on a wooden chair with wheels, with a cloth blanket covering his legs. It was King Jing Zhao Hai, and the one on the right was his most powerful attribute. Xiajintongda.
Zhao Hai's house was eerie and terrifying. As soon as Fang Jinshi walked in, an unknown bird cooed twice. A goshawk stood on the window sill. In the middle of the ground was a shallow basket made of strips with two black strips inside. The snake was coiled up, and the whole room was filled with an unknown herbal smell.
Fang Jinshi didn¡¯t even look at the snake basket not far away. He jumped over the basket and walked to the table not far away. He smiled and said, ¡°Your Majesty, I¡¯m back.¡±
Liu Huanqing followed him. She didn't dare to jump over like Fang Jinshi. She walked around the snake basket, walked behind Fang Jinshi, and held Fang Jinshi's right hand with her hand. No matter how brave she was, she was still a girl. The environment can also be scary.
Zhao Hai looked at the two people standing in front of him and said to Fang Jinshi, "I thought you wouldn't be able to come back."
Fang Jinshi said: "I received the news from the prince that the Jing'an Army had entered the city, so I hurried back. I encountered some small things on the way and delayed my time. I hope it's not too late to come back."
Liu Huanqing knew that he was talking about wasting some time, so he lowered his head and moved closer to Fang Jinshi. Zhao Hai said: "It's not too late. Li Gang has entered the palace several times in the past two days. When admonishing officials abdicate, throughout the ages, who has sat in the position of emperor and would easily resign? Li Gang is weak and weak, so it will be difficult for him to succeed."
Fang Jinshi said: "At this time, the Jin army is besieging Bianliang, but it is hard to say that the prince's full help will bring blessings to the world and to the common people."
Zhao Hai said: "I just don't want the Zhao family to fall into the hands of a mediocre and incompetent person like Zhao Huan. King Duan has been in power for decades, the government has failed, and Hua Shigang has made people angry. The Jin army can march straight to the city of Binglin. If If this mediocrity continues, the Song Dynasty will be in danger and the world will be in danger."
Fang Jinshi said: "What the prince said is true."
Zhao Hai looked behind Fang Jinshi and said, "Yin girl didn't come back with you?"
Fang Jinshi said: "Now my whole family depends on her. It's enough for me to take risks by myself. I hope the prince can understand." He raised Liu Huanqing's hand and said to Zhao Hai: "This is Her little sister, I¡¯ll bring you a lot of experience.¡±
Zhao Hai looked at Liu Huanqing, frowned and said: "Nonsense." But he followed up by saying: "You have to control yourself."
Fang Jinshi said: "I will."
Zhao Hai nodded and said to Jin Tongdao beside him: "You can take him there, I'm going back."
Jin Tongda stood up, saluted Zhao Hai and said, "Yes." Zhao Hai reached for the tea cauldron, pushed the wooden wheel chair, and moved behind the curtain.
Jin Tongda walked up to Fang Jinshi and said, "Please follow me."
He led the way, Fang Jinshi followed him out of the house, Jin TongTurning around and closing the door, he took Fang Jinshi downstairs. He smiled at the other person and said to Jinshi, "I have to trouble Mr. Fang to get wet in the rain again, just in front." After saying that, he put on a raincoat with a raincloth inside and put it on. Put on a bamboo hat and get into the rain.
Liu Huanqing opened the big oilcloth umbrella again. Fang Jinshi heard that he said it wasn't far, so he stopped carrying her and followed Jin Tongda with his arms around her waist. They didn't go far before they arrived at the inland river. There was a awning boat tied to the river bank, and Jin Tong shouted several times: "Li Laoqi, Li Laoqi."
A sturdy middle-aged man came out and said, "Here you are." Jin Tong greeted Fang Jinshi, jumped on the bow, and got into the awning boat. Fang Jinshi saw that it was not easy to get on the boat, so he said to Liu Huanqing, "I'll carry you aboard." ." He bent down, hugged her waist and knees, picked her up and walked onto the boat. Liu Huanqing looked at his face in his arms, and then lowered her head. She didn't even look up until Fang Jinshi put her down in the cabin.
There was an oil lamp on the small table in the cabin, and the awning was leaking. The water under his feet was up to his ankles. There were wooden buckets and gourds beside him. Li Laoqi had been scooping rainwater out of the boat. If he hadn't done it, Diligent, I'm afraid this boat won't be able to move at all.
Jin Tong asked: "Is it difficult to leave?"
Li Laoqi said: "Don't worry." He untied the mooring rope, went to the bow of the ship and set off. Although it was a dark night and rainy day, this man's skills were so superb that he actually sailed down the river. It didn't take long, Li Laoqi said. Lao Qi said: "We're here."
Jin Tongda led Fang Jinshi out of the boat, and Li Laoqi rocked the boat. The road to the shore was full of vegetable fields on both sides. Not far along the muddy road, there were more houses and more lights. Get up until you reach where you can see some low houses next to tall palaces with bright lights.
Fang Jinshi blurted out: "This is the Great Xiangguo Temple."
Jin Tongdao: "It is originally the Daxiangguo Temple, what's so strange about it."
He led the two of them to the door of a large courtyard behind the Daxiangguo Temple, and went up to knock on the door. A young man in Tsing Yi came over and opened the door, and led them to a main hall house. Jin Tong entered the door. Someone said: "Boss Jin, you are here. If you don't come, all the brothers will go back to sleep."
Fang Jinshi heard what he heard, and when he came in, he saw that it was Fu Xuan, Wang Duxian and Qin Gankai, and several others were also subordinates of King Jing Zhao Hai.
Qin Gankai and the others gathered around him as soon as they saw Fang Jinshi coming. Qin Gankai said, "Master Fang, I finally have the opportunity to follow you to do something big."
Fang Jinshi said: "Brother Qin is serious. I am just a matchmaker. To achieve great things, we still have to rely on the concerted efforts of all brothers and rush forward risklessly."
Qin Gan said: "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, today is different from the past. We have been under the prince's command for so many years, and no one has a clear idea. It's all minor matters that lead to disagreements on big matters."
Jin Tongdao: "Don't worry, Young Master Fang. We know that we are going to do a big thing this time. We have chosen the best among the best in the house. They are all one against ten. Although there are not many people, when it comes to doing things, you will definitely be able to do it." Don¡¯t worry.¡±
Fang Jinshi said repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
Jin Tongdao: "Would you like to take a break first and change into clean clothes, or should I take you to have a look?"
Fang Jinshi said: "We can still bear it, let's go and have a look. After seeing it, we will feel relieved."
Jin Tongdao: "Okay." He turned to look at Liu Huanqing and said, "You little sister, just stay here and wait."
Fang Jinshi thought for a moment and said, "Okay." He turned back to Liu Huanqing and said, "You stay here for a moment, and I'll come back as soon as I can."
Jin Tongda called a female guest over and asked her to find dry clothes and take Liu Huanqing to change. Fang Jinshi followed Jin Tongda through the garden of the courtyard and arrived at a Buddhist hall at the back.
Jin Tongda reached behind the curtain and moved somewhere. The base of the Buddha statue in the Buddhist hall made several sounds and moved a few feet. Jin Tongda jumped on the Buddha's seat, turned on the mechanism, lifted the wooden board on the ground, and a figure appeared. At the entrance of the cave, he jumped in, and Fang Jinshi followed. There was a tunnel below, which went around for a long time. Some places on both sides were made of loess, and some places still had bricks and stones.
At first glance, this place was not a tunnel that had just been dug. Jin Tong walked for a long time holding a torch. Every time he reached a corner, he announced a word. Some were the names of books, some were the names of word plaques, and some were the names of animals and plants.
Fang Jinshi knew that there must be someone guarding this dark corner elsewhere. This was the correct password for Jin Tongda. It was rare for him to remember so many passwords at such a distance.
After walking for a long time, Jin Tongda finally stopped and said, "There's no need to go any further, it's the same inside."
Fang Jinshi looked around and saw that he didn¡¯t know how far it was in the tunnel. He looked up at the top of his head.Tutu said: "Where is this place?"
Jin Tongdao: "It should be Tai'an Palace."
This Tai'an Palace is the inner palace of the imperial city, usually where the empress dowager lives. Fang Jinshi asked: "Who built this tunnel?"
Jintong Avenue: "It was Liu Zhiyuan, Liu Chengyou and his son, the former emperors of the Han Dynasty. They were very suspicious, so they built a tunnel in the palace to prepare for emergencies. However, Liu Chengyou ignored it and used the tunnel to escape and was defeated and killed. The fate of the day determines it.¡±
Note: Speaking of Liu Chengyou, his death is so funny. Guo Wei rebelled and attacked Kaifeng. Liu Chengyou insisted on leaving the city to watch the battle. As a result, the Han army was defeated. He panicked and wanted to escape back to Kaifeng. However, Kaifeng governor Liu Zhu closed the door and refused to let him in. , he had no choice but to lead his men and flee. One of his men named Guo Yunming saw that there were pursuers coming from behind, so he wanted to kill Liu Chengyou as a greeting gift and surrender to Guo Wei. After stabbing Liu Chengyou to death, the pursuers came closer and saw that he It turned out that it was not Guo Wei, but the Han army escorting him. Guo Yunming was dumbfounded when he raised the emperor's head, and had to commit suicide himself.
