There is a dragon in the backyard of the palace

But Feng Chuo, on the surface, was just a fool, sometimes he took money from others to give him bodyguards, and sometimes he got some news, but went to rob the bodyguards with others.If you can't find a living, it's not uncommon to find a street messenger to sell medicine with guns and sticks.On the surface, he looks no different from ordinary Jianghu people, living a precarious life every day.However, in fact, he has a second identity.

Feng Chuo is a man who eats the emperor's food.

Even so, he doesn't actually have any duties, nor does he have a fixed title.He is a river and lake person, and he was originally not in the game.It's just that he tries to go to the capital every spring to get 120 taels of silver from the House of Internal Affairs.He never spends the 120 taels of silver, and always tries to send it home.On the one hand, it is to support the family, and on the other hand, it also saves some money for the elderly.Every year when he went to collect the money, he had to hand in all the news he had scouted around during the year.Usually, if there is particularly important information, you can quickly pass it to the top, and you can get extra rewards.

But this imperial food is not easy to eat. According to Feng Chuo's knowledge, there are nearly a hundred people like him, and thousands of messages are handed over every year.The people above will sort out the news by categories, distinguish the authenticity, and the degree of usefulness.The person who handed over the news was designated as the third and ninth grade.Those who are classified as superior will be rewarded, and if they are designated as inferior, the original 120 taels of silver will be halved. If someone is designated as inferior for three consecutive years, the imperial food can be eaten by someone else.

Among these people, Feng Chuo did not do a particularly good job. Over the years, he has only been assigned to the top class once.Usually in the middle.In recent years, he has been unlucky. Last year he was still in the middle and lower class, but this year he became the lower middle class. He only took 60 taels of silver.Feng Chuo felt that the eunuch who gave him the money looked at him a little wrongly. He had no doubt that if he couldn't get some special news this year, he would definitely fall to the bottom next year when he was scheduled to wait.He sent some money to the eunuch who was in charge, and the eunuch in charge told him about the events of the Shangyuan Festival, saying that it was the most important thing in the mind of the sage, one was King Jin, and the other was the Qinglong.After he heard it, he kept these things firmly in his heart.

Later, it was heard that the King of Jin had been put to death, and the only clue Feng Chuo knew was Qinglong.This time when he met the Zheng family brothers, he offered 30 taels of silver so generously, but it was just to get more information.The two brothers of the Zheng family have a lot of friends, and selling their favor now is definitely beneficial and not harmful.

Unexpectedly, he was really lucky, and someone came to give him a pillow when he fell asleep.What Nineteen said might sound like an ordinary strange talk to others, but Feng Chuo knew that this might be his promotion.After all, he is doing this business, and some secrets that ordinary people don't know are often heard.I heard that when King Jin was transported to the capital, his face was already blurred, and there were no obvious marks on his body, so it was only by the clothes on his body that he was identified.

Now, although the Holy One has announced to the world that King Jin is dead, he has withdrawn the arrest warrant for him.But I'm afraid that the Holy One is very clear in his heart, Jin Wang is likely to still be alive in this world.

Now a dragon is found on the coast of the East China Sea walking with a beautiful and innocent young man. Such a combination really makes people think of King Jin and Qinglong.If this news can be passed back to Beijing, Feng Chuo will not have to worry about ratings this year.

He and the brothers of the Zheng family drank a lot of wine together, quietly trying to get Nineteen to drink more.Nineteen is addicted to alcohol, even if he doesn't need to be persuaded, he still has to drink enough, how can he stand up to Feng Chuo.He was so drunk that the words could not stop coming out of his mouth.

Feng Chuo asked about the physical characteristics of the two men, collected all kinds of useful and useless information, and said goodbye to the Zheng family brothers.Checked out and left the tavern.He wanted to hurry back to his residence, transcribe the information on paper so as not to forget it, and then send it to the capital as quickly as possible.

Zheng Shiqi also drank a lot of wine, but he was not drunk.He just pretended to be unconscious and lay down on the table, but his ears kept listening to what Feng Chuo and Shijiu were talking about.Zheng Shiqi didn't know Feng Chuo's identity, and now it seemed that Feng Chuo was not just an ordinary wanderer.He deliberately collected information, obviously for another purpose.

Zheng Shiqi was not interested in knowing who Feng Chuo's master was, but he didn't know when the news would save their brother's life, so he silently wrote it down.Before Feng Chuo mentioned King Jin, Zheng Shiqi suddenly remembered that there were portraits of King Jin posted on the streets and alleys before, and he even glanced at them.Speaking of which, King Jin's appearance on the portrait is very similar to the little prince they met before.

Could it be that the young master is the King of Jin?

Zheng Shiqi was not interested in thinking about such obscure palace secrets. Now that he saw Feng Chuo had left, he got up from the table, asked Xiaoer to pack the leftovers, and snatched the wine jug that Shijiu was holding. , poured the remaining wine into the wine gourd that he carried with him, picked up Shijiu, and went to the ruined temple where they lived.

Shijiu was drunk now, and Zheng Shiqi had no choice but to stretch out his arms to support him, hoping that he could go to the ruined temple smoothly, stay overnight, and tomorrow he could take the 30 taels of silver borrowed by Feng Chuo Go elsewhere and have nothing to worry about.It's a pity that the luck of the Zheng family brothers has now been used up. As soon as Zheng Shiqi and Shijiu walked to the door of the tavern, they felt dark in front of them, and the way ahead was blocked.

Shi Qi didn't look up, but just said "excuse me", but the people in front didn't move out of the way.Nineteen raised his head and looked, but it turned out that the enemy's road was narrow.

Standing in front of the two of them were the white-faced young master and the tall man in the form of a dragon.

Xiao has been looking for traces of the brothers of the Zheng family for several days, now when he sees him, he laughs:

"Isn't this Brother Zheng? It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to meet again after that day. I still have a lot to ask Brother Zheng. Is this Brother Ling next to you? I heard Brother Zheng mention it that day, and I never heard of it." See you, see you today, as expected, exactly as Brother Zheng said, you look exactly like Brother Zheng. It's really interesting, interesting."

When Zheng Shiqi saw them, he couldn't help laughing bitterly:

"The two men spared their lives that day, and Zheng Shiqi was really grateful. It was just that he accidentally left the dagger given by the first test in the two rooms, and his younger brother went back to get it. He has always been naughty, so he took it Your treasure. I ordered him to return it, but he was shy and refused to go again. I had to ask him to keep the treasure carefully, in case I meet you again in the future, so that I can return it in time."

After he finished speaking, he took out the black iron dagger from Nineteen's waist and handed it to Xiao.Xiao took the dagger and looked it over carefully, and confirmed that it was indeed his dagger without any damage, so he put it in his arms, still standing still in front of Shiqi.

Shi Qi also understood that this matter probably cannot be settled so easily.It's a shame that Shijiu is drunk now, and his arm is broken again, so even if he wants to escape, it's not easy now.He had to apologize again and said with a smile:

"Is it my brother's fault? I, Zheng Shiqi, must find ways to make up for it, but please don't worry."

Qinglong looked around and said:

"I'm afraid you won't admit it. Now that you admit it, it's easy to talk. This is not a place to talk. Take your brother and come with us."

Seventeen looked to both sides, this place can be regarded as a bustling area, people come and go, it's very lively.He wanted to stay on this street from the bottom of his heart, but the opponent's force was amazing, and he probably didn't care much about killing people in the street. Zheng Shiqi weighed the pros and cons, and nodded:

"Then please lead the way."

Xiao and Qinglong led the Zheng family brothers to leave this place and go to a remote place.Zheng Shiqi stood on Nineteen, his forehead was sweating, he kept thinking of ways to get out, but he had no idea.Fortunately, he was injured, and there was another person on his back, so he had an excuse to walk slowly, just rubbing forward step by step.

Xiao and Qinglong were not in a hurry, they were afraid they could not find this person before, but now that they have found it, they have nothing to worry about.Now they have a lot of time, they just worry about not being able to spend it, so no matter how slow Zheng Shiqi walks, they can afford to wait.

After walking for a long time, they finally came to a remote place where there was not even a single person in sight.Qinglong looked around, seemed satisfied, found a flat place and sat down with Xiao.

Zheng Shiqi put aside Shijiu, who was almost unconscious, and sat down opposite Xiao and Qinglong.With a smile:

"It's really a blessing for me, Zheng Shishi, to see you two again. Now I only want one thing: my parents left early, and my brother is innocent and ignorant of world affairs. If he offends you, it's all because of my elder brother." If you two want to blame me, please blame me. Although our brothers are incompetent, they are also from innocent families. If we are all ruined here today, and the graves of our parents are not cleaned, it would be pitiful."

Xiao had originally made up his mind to kill the two of them, but now seeing Zheng Shiqiyi's appearance of taking responsibility for the crime, he couldn't bear it.Just about to say something, Qinglong sneered and said:

"Since you have said such words, you know that I am going to kill someone. You don't know the reason why I want to kill someone, do you?"

Zheng Shiqi nodded and said:

"I've heard it from my brother, and I have some guesses. The identities of the two are extraordinary. Now I'm looking for it, so I'm worried about the news leaking out. But even if we kill our two brothers now, the purpose of the two is now It’s also out of reach.”

"how?"

"The two of us brothers have been short of money recently. We happened to meet an acquaintance who lent us 30 taels of silver and invited the two of us to drink. My younger brother opened his mouth and told everything about the two of you. The man seemed to be concerned I was very interested, and inquired about the two of you in detail. In my opinion, he inquired so in detail, I am afraid that he is going to pass on information to others. If you can release your younger brother, I will send that Tell the two of you the name and address of the person, what do you think?"

The author has something to say:

Recently I was playing in Xiamen, so I wrote a lot of travel notes and posted them on Weibo.The writing is very detailed, and friends who are interested can go and have a look.Let me tell you secretly, I am a hundred times better at writing prose than novels, so there is absolutely no disadvantage in reading it.
