One Piece of Song Dynasty

Li Xin finally said, "The less people know about these two gentlemen, the better. So don't tell your family, so as not to worry them. .shung"

The two of them clasped their fists together and said, "Yes, we will not talk about this to anyone."

After convincing Wang Xiu and Fan Wen, Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately sent a secret message to Liang Xing.

In the next few days, Li Xin transferred more than warriors, several pigeon breeders, and several shopkeepers and cooks from the Xiang Barracks to follow Wang Xiu and Fan Wen into the Liao territory to supplement Liang Xing's intelligence network.

This day was the day when Mr. Wang Xiu and Fan Wen set out. Li Xin personally sent the two gentlemen and everyone on the expedition.

Li Xin bowed again and said, "Two gentlemen, this trip is very difficult and dangerous. I look forward to your safe return as soon as possible. I will personally hold a celebration banquet for you two gentlemen at that time. What a great feat these two gentlemen have achieved." His name will surely remain in history and be respected by the world.”

The two of them said in unison, "Lang Jun, a small county magistrate, has been working so hard on state affairs, and he has a huge relationship to give me and the other two such great contributions. I will do my best to complete this matter."

Li Xin continued, "Two gentlemen, please be calm when encountering problems after entering the Liao territory. Don't act impulsively. I have already arranged everything."

The two of them clasped their fists in unison and said, "Okay, I know it. Lang Jun will stay here. It's time for us to set off."

Li Xin cupped her fists and said, "Two gentlemen, please take care of me all the way."

Wang Xiu and Fan Wen took everyone away, and Li Xin returned to the Xuanwu Camp where he was training at Xiangbing Camp.

As soon as they embarked on the journey, Fan Wen started talking with Wang Xiu.

Fan Wen said, "Brother Wang, do we think this is like "the wind is rustling and the water is cold, and a strong man will never return once he is gone?"

Wang Xiu replied, "Brother Fan, don't be so pessimistic. Since the magistrate has made preparations in advance, I think there will be no problem for the two of us to become officials during this trip. The important thing is what happens after we become officials."

Fan Wen nodded and said, "Yes, becoming an official is the real beginning. You and I need to be fully mentally prepared."

Wang Xiu smiled and said, "Brother Fan, don't be nervous. You and I have fulfilled our wish to become officials this time. Although we are officials in Daliao, and although this time is full of difficulties, it may not be an opportunity. Wealth and wealth are dangerous." I wish you the best."

Fan Wen mustered up his courage and said, "Okay, let's take a gamble this time. If we succeed, our wealth for the rest of our lives will be guaranteed. If it doesn't work, we won't have to worry about it. I believe that the magistrate will take good care of our family."

Wang Xiu nodded and said, "Well, that's right. Since you have chosen this path, you and I must face it actively. Escape will only make you and I die faster. In the future, you and I will be together." Daliao officials must help each other and work together in the same boat, otherwise it will be difficult for us to complete our mission."

Fan Wen replied, "Well, brother Wang, don't worry, I will definitely be with you to tide over the difficulties together."

……

While Fan Wen and Wang Xiu were encouraging each other, Liang Xing received Li Xin's secret letter and began to prepare intensively.

Although the profit of Shuixianju was not as good as that of Tianxiang House in the first two months of its opening, the net profit also reached yuan. In addition to the profit, there was also membership card income. Two hundred new gold card members were added in the first two months, earning yuan. The new silver card members received guan, and the store made a profit of guan in the first two months. With this money, Liang Xing can make great strides as soon as the additional manpower arrives. Now the beggars and thugs in Nanjing Prefecture have basically been bribed by Liang Xing. Whenever there is any big movement in Nanjing Prefecture or a big shot comes, these people will report it. To Liang Xing, Liang Xing's next step is to open restaurants and shops in Datong Prefecture, Jizhou, and Yunnei Prefecture in Xijing.

Liang Xing found Niu San, "Niu San, you pick a few people to go to Cangzhou Mansion to pick up people. Bring more clothes for the Liao people. This time, you have added dozens of people to our strength, as well as two Confucian scholars." We must receive them well, they are candidates to enter the officialdom of the Liao Kingdom, and this time we have two thousand taels of gold that your Excellency has given us, so we must bring them back carefully."

Niu San replied, "Yes, Langjun, I will do it right now."

Niu San took a few people away. Liang Xing continued to check the excavation status of the tunnel in the mansion. It took three months to dig the tunnel, but only half of it was dug so far. The imperial city of Nanjing was prepared for the Emperor of Liao, and the emperor would not come to Nanjing. Mansion, then the imperial city is usually where the remaining royal family and descendants live.

According to Liang Xing’s understanding, the Liao and Jin Dynasties were in the negotiation stage during this period. Wanyan Agu tried to get Emperor Tian Zuo to recognize his identity as the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, but Emperor Tian Zuo was unwilling, so the two sides were in a wrangling stage. It was nothing major. In fact, history The Liao and Jin Dynasties were in a brief truce period from the eighth year of Shangzhenghe to the beginning of the second year of Chonghe. However, during this rare respite, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Dynasty did nothing except send envoys to negotiate, and wasted two years of brief peace. .

Therefore, during this period of time, Liang Xing could only pay attention to the excavation of the tunnel every day, or wander around the city talking to various people. It is said that Liang Xing got along well with the Yanyun Han people according to Li Xin's instructions. After long-term contact with the Yunhan people, Liang Xing found that Li Xin was right. The Han people in Yanyun were not very enthusiastic about returning to the Song Dynasty. On the contrary, they were a little indifferent. This made Liang Xing worried about the Song Dynasty regaining Yanyun in the future. If it could not If it brings real benefits to the Yanyun Han people, they are likely to oppose the arrival of the Song Dynasty, and may even resist the rule of the Song Dynasty. Take it one step at a time. He believes that Li Xin will solve all this. Liang Xing can only comfort himself in this way.

Niu San and several others waited at Cangzhoufu Restaurant for half a month before Wang Xiu and Fan Wen arrived.

Niu San saw the stopped motorcade at the entrance of Cangzhou Mansion Restaurant and asked, "Are they Mr. Wang Xiu and Mr. Fan Wen here?"

The two clasped their fists and replied, "That's right."

Niu San handed a special small sign of Shuixianju to the two of them and said, "A certain person came here specially to pick up the two of you and others to go to the Liao territory. This is a token of a certain person. Please enter the house and change into Liao people's clothes first. We At the time of You, I will take you all into the Liao territory."

The two of them replied in unison, "Okay."

Everyone changed their clothes and waited until You arrived to disperse from the inn and go to the designated place on the border to meet. Under the leadership of Niu San and others, they carefully entered the Liao border and entered Liang Xing's residence in Nanjing Prefecture at noon the next day.

Liang Xing saw Wang Xiu, Fan Wen and their group clasping fists and said, "You must be Mr. Wang Xiu and Mr. Fan Wen."

The two of them replied in unison, "Exactly. I didn't expect that it would be your boy who came to greet us. When you were traveling on errands, we thought it was some big deal. But we didn't expect that you would actually go to Daliao to do big things. Seriously." It makes the two of us look at each other with admiration.”
