Chapter 266 The thief, here we come!(1/2)

Sometimes, the word fate cannot be forced.

Yu Yin and Zhao Chen did not have much contact, but Zhao Chen had a much better relationship with him than Gao Yaoqing, who often got together.

Even Yu Yin himself couldn't figure out the reason.

However, since Zhao Chen invited him, Yu Yin would not refuse.

But he immediately thought of what Zong Ze would go to the palace to report the right thing in two days. Speaking of which, Zong Ze did not have a deep foundation in the court. Even Li Gang and Li Ruoshui might not pin their hopes on an old man who was 68 years old and was about to pass his seventies. In this case, wouldn’t Zong Ze be even more lonely?

Historically, Zong Ze was recommended by the Censor Chen Guoting and was able to go to Beijing to report the matter.

To a certain extent, Zong Ze was included in the camp of the main war faction at that time, so he was quickly reused.

But here’s the question!

Now Zong Ze was transferred back to Kaifeng Prefecture because of Yu Yin’s unintentional words.

In other words, there is no imprint of any faction in him now. Whether Li Gang and others will be as good as in history is still between the two. Without the support of Li Gang and others, Zong Ze's career would not be very smooth.

Thinking of this, Yu Yin became calculating.

"Dalang, go and ask where Zongze and Zong Rulin will live after they arrive in Kaifeng."

Yu Yin immediately found Huo Jian and found Zong Ze's whereabouts.

Huo Jian has been in Kaifeng for more than a year, and he has gathered many people under his command. Among them, there are not only more than a hundred swordsmen from the slaughterhouse, but also many idle men from Kaifeng Prefecture. These people do nothing on the streets all day, but it is indeed convenient to inquire about the news.

Soon, Yu Yin was rewarded.

Zongze's family of twelve people now live in an inn in the East Second Chamber.

The East Second Chamber is not far from Guanyin Lane. However, Yu Yin knew that the security in the East Second Chamber was not very good and the environment was very poor. To be precise, the East Second Chamber belonged to a slum area. Zong Ze's family lived in the East Second Chamber. It can be seen that their life was not very affordable.

Yu Yin thought about it and asked Yan Nu to take ten ingots of silver and send Huo Jian to the inn.

"When I saw the old man, I said that the prince was holding a banquet in Fengle Building today. If the old man had time, I would invite him to go there for a while."

Ten ingots of silver are more than one hundred stakes.

Originally, Yishen money could be exchanged for about one or three cents of silver, but as the war broke out, the copper coins depreciated significantly. The silver that was originally used as a supplementary currency grew rapidly in just half a year, and one or two cents of silver can now be exchanged for Yishen three hundred and twenty cents of silver. Since the beginning of the year, Yu Yin has been constantly exchanging the copper coins in his hand for silver. Now he has dozens of taels of silver, worth 500,000 coins of copper coins, which can be called a hidden rich man in Kaifeng Prefecture.

Huo Jian was a little strange.

Why should a young master pay so much attention to a Bazhou magistrate who is almost seventy years old?

However, he also knew when to ask and when not to ask. Since Yu Yin gave the order, he would do whatever he wanted.

After only two steps, Yu Yin called again: "Da Lang, wait... and the money goes over, remember to ask the old man to change his clothes. If you ask, you will say that a man is a clothes and a horse is a saddle. Sometimes, you have to do enough skills on the surface."

Huo Jian didn't understand the meaning, but since Yu Yin said so, he naturally wouldn't pursue and inquire.

Then he agreed and hurried out with the silver.

"Is this Zong Ze very powerful?"

Andaoquan walked out of the wing room and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Just now, Yu Yin and Huo Jian's conversation were very clear in the room...but the name Zong Ze was so terrible.

Yu Yin smiled, "That's natural!"

Zong Ze's power is not only because he once stood firm in Kaifeng and won a chance to breathe for the Song Dynasty's migration south. More importantly, this person trained the Yue Grandpa who was famous in the future, Yue Fei and Yue Pengju. At the end of the Jingkang Incident, the Song Dynasty was able to maintain its strength, and two people made great efforts. One was Zong Ze and the other was Queen Mother Meng of Longyou.

This Empress Meng was Empress Zhezong, and she was loved by Empress Dowager Gao and Empress Dowager Xiang.

However, Zhezong favored Liu Jieyu, and later became a deposed queen and lived in Yaohua Palace to become a monk...

However, Zhezong did not reign for a long time. In 1100 AD, after Huizong ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Xiang ruled from behind the curtain and welcomed Empress Meng back to honor Empress Yuanyou. However, Empress Yuanyou was really in a miserable life. As soon as Empress Dowager Xiang died, the Concubine Liu and later Empress Liu forced Emperor Huizong to issue another edict to abolish Empress Meng and allow him to return to Yaohua Palace.

But it was such a person who, after Jingkang, the two emperors Hui and Qin were abducted, took on national affairs and stabilized the situation at that time.

Yu Yin knew about Empress Dowager Meng, but she couldn't see the real person.

At this time, Empress Dowager Meng Shang You lived in Yaohua Palace, and many people even forgot her existence.

Yu Yin naturally could not ignore this woman who played an immeasurable role in the late Jingkang period. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally made up his mind. No matter what the result was, he had to try to get along with Empress Dowager Longyou.

But, how to get along?

I vaguely remember that the reason why Empress Dowager Longyou was spared was because she was not in the palace at that time.

But Yu Yin doesn't remember why he left the palace very clearly... This may be his only chance to show kindness to Empress Dowager Longyou.

But, how can we seize this opportunity?

Yu Yin thought for a long time, but she really couldn't come up with a charter...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

That night, Kaifeng Prefecture was in a state of depression.

The news that the Jurchens approached the Yellow River had spread, causing countless people to feel panic.

In the past, the bustling Zhouqiao Night Market, Maxing Street became deserted. Even those restaurants were deserted.

Yuyin took Gao Zemin out of the house and headed straight to Fengle Tower.

From a distance, I saw a lot of people surrounding the gate of Fengle Tower. When I walked in, I found that Zong Ze was blocked outside the gate of Fengle Tower.

Dongxin Lei is gone, it is said that he fell into the water and drowned in the Bian River.

But Yu Yin knew that it was Li Qingzhao's work... Before Li Qingzhao left Tokyo, she ordered Zhao Jiu to secretly get rid of Dong Xinlei, which could be regarded as eradicating a Jurchen spy. As for whether Dong Xinlei is really a Jurchen spy, no one would care. Even Yu Yin had no evidence, but he only realized this in his heart after hearing what Li Guanyu said.

The one who replaced Dongxinlei was a man named Zhang Jinxiu.

This person is Zhang Sanmazi's nephew, who is usually in the Happy Forest. Although he is idle, he never bullies others.

After Dong Xinlei died, he received the recommendation of Zhang Sanmazi, and Ma Ma recruited Zhang Jinxiu.

At this time, Zong Ze was red in front of Zhang Jinxiu, but Zhang Jinxiu had no expression on his face and shook his head repeatedly.

"Brother Xiu. What is this?"

Yu Yin realized that the Crown Prince Zhao Chen was not comparable to the former crown prince.

Since he was holding a banquet in Fengle Tower, he must have been guarding him strictly. Thinking about it, he was the crown prince of the emperor before, but now he is the crown prince of the Song Dynasty. Yu Yin only wanted to find Zong Ze, but forgot the trick. Zong Ze did not recognize Zhao Chen, so how could he be allowed to enter? So he quickly separated the crowd and walked in, greeted Zhang Jinxiu with a smile.

"Yeah, it's Brother Xiaoyi here!"

Zhang Jinxiu recognized Yu Yin. At that time, Yu Yin and Zhang Sanmazi had met several times.

However, as time goes by, Yu Yin is now serving as the commander of the Imperial Guard Mu Tuogang, which is no longer comparable to Zhang Sanmazi. Zhang Jinxiu hurriedly let go of Zong Ze and quickly walked up to Yu Yin and sang a fat look: "It's because I'm making things difficult for this old man. Today, the prince is watching the performance in the building, so he naturally needs to be more vigilant. When the old man comes, he says he wants to see the prince. But no one knows this person, how dare I let it go?"

Yu Yin smiled!

"Then can I go in?"

"What did Brother Xiao Yi say? Gao Yanei ordered that Brother Xiao Yi was the target of the prince's special invitation."

"Brother Xiu, this is the matter... This old man is a guest I invited. His name is Zongze, the former magistrate of Bazhou.

You also know that the prince was established shortly after the official ascended the throne, and there were always some available people around the prince.

The eldest son is very talented. So I tried to recommend it to the prince... I just forgot that the prince's rules are not ordinary now, so... In this way, I will take the eldest son in, and I will take care of everything. Do you think this is good?"

Zong Ze listened aside and felt a warm current surge in his heart.

When I returned to Tokyo, it was already unfamiliar with people and land.

The official said he was going to summon him to report, but who knows when he would be summoned?

It is precisely this reason that after Zong Ze received the news of Yu Yin, although he was reluctant, he could only obey... If he could be branded as the prince, it would be better than staying in Kaifeng City without anyone asking about it. You should know that even if Tokyo is depressed, the price is amazing. A family of twelve people living in an inn would cost a day. Now, the price of food in Tokyo is one day, even if it is simple to eat, it costs hundreds of cents. Zong Ze has no savings.

But I never thought that I was blocked outside Fengle Tower.

If Yu Yin hadn't saved him, this old face would have been lost!

When Zhang Jinxiu heard Yu Yin’s words, she looked at Zong Ze’s eyes differently…

Everyone knows that although Yu Yin is a military officer of the sixth rank, he is really favored in front of the prince. This old man has to become successful after receiving the recommendation of Yu Yin. It’s a pity that why does he have no such blessings? Otherwise, he could have made up the last time.

"Since Xiao Yi is the one who protects you, you can pass."

"Haha, what kind of show is tonight?"

"Oh, Miss Feng and Miss Zhang are going to work together tonight, which is indeed a good show."

"In this way, I will wait and see."

As Yu Yin spoke, a ingot of three or two of silver fell into Zhang Jinxiu's hands.

Zhang Jinxiu was so happy that she smiled, and hurriedly made way, and bowed her body and said, "Brother Xiaoyi, please come inside."

"Sir, let's go in."

"Xiao Yi will go first."

At this time, Zong Ze did not dare to take over.

So he took a step back and wanted to fall behind Yu Yin.

But when Yu Yin stretched out his hand, he grabbed his arm with a swollen one, "Sir, be so polite, let's go together."

This is called walking with your arms, which is an extremely intimate act.
