Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo.

When night fell, when the lights were on, An Le Hou Du Cheng disguised himself as a person in the house, and only brought his most confidant butler Du Nian, and the two quietly slipped out of the side door of the Hou Mansion, and disappeared in the bustling crowd without much effort.

After passing through a few streets, Du Nian beckoned to call an ox cart and deliberately cut an ordinary car price, and then helped Du Cheng, who had changed into ordinary merchant clothes, to get into the ox cart.

Even if the Hou Mansion of Anle is settled again, Du Nian, the chief housekeeper in the Hou Mansion, welcomes a wide range of people, and for the sake of secrecy, he also follows Du Cheng into the carriage.

The ox cart started slowly, and then Du Cheng's master and servant, almost passed through most of Kaifeng City, and finally stopped in front of a small teahouse.

Du Nian took the lead in getting out of the car and carefully looked at the teahouse, at this time, Dr. Tea came forward with a smile, nodded and said: "This guest officer, the new Tuanlong tea from the shop is sweet and delicious, and you are satisfied." ”

"Have you ever kept the seat reserved by Liu Daguan?" Du Cheng ignored Dr. Cha's exaggeration and directly said the code that had been agreed in advance.

Dr. Tea looked at Du Nian deeply, his face did not change color, and he said without a beating heart: "Don't hide it from this big official, Liu Daguan has never reserved a seat today, but the seat A by the window has been empty." ”

Du Nian pursed his lips, the code matched, a good word, then raised his chin and ordered: "Wait, I'll go and ask the owner to get off." Only then did he turn around and lean to the car window and whispered the news to Du Cheng.

After Du Cheng slowly climbed down the ox cart, Du Nian helped him and went up the stairs to the second floor under the courtesy of Dr. Cha. However, Dr. Tea did not take them to the window seat, but led them directly into the back compartment hidden by the door curtain.

What Du Cheng's master and servant didn't expect was that after Dr. Tea led them into the back compartment, he didn't stop for a while, and went down the narrow ladder behind the door to the courtyard.

Although Dr. Tea is very complicated, Du Cheng's originally uneasy heart is becoming more and more stable, and the more secret the matter of meeting that person tonight, the better, and the less people know about the Du family, the safer it is.

Dr. Tea led Du Cheng's master and servant through the courtyard, turned into a moon gate, and stopped in front of what looked like a firewood house.

"The big official is inside, so let's go in directly." After saying this, Dr. Tea walked over to the closed door and knocked lightly on the door frame, "Here they are." ”

Du Cheng's master and servant glanced at each other, and Du Nian took the first step very knowingly, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open. The light in the room was very dim, Du Nian closed his eyes, fixed his mind, and then opened his eyes to look, but saw that the old acquaintance was standing in front of a large pile of firewood, looking at him with a smile.

"The owner, the big officials are inside, and the small ones are waiting outside, you can command them at any time." Du Nian said, stepped aside, and let Du Cheng into the firewood room.

After Du Cheng entered the house, Du Nian bowed his hand, turned around and walked out of the firewood room, closed the door with his backhand, and stood in front of the door without blinking.

"The villain has seen the big official."

"Oh, I don't dare to be such a noble gift, please get up, please get up quickly, please get up quickly......"

Du Nian, who was outside the door, heard the greetings in the inner room, but turned his head away, but he didn't hear it. The deputy attendants in the palace of the dignified Du Taigui all know Kang Ze, and they go out of the palace without permission to have a secret meeting with An Le Hou, as long as the news is leaked, it will be a catastrophe!

Du Nian heard it clearly, Du Cheng deliberately did not say Kang Ze's official title, and replaced him with a nobleman, obviously taking into account the need for secrecy.

Although Du Cheng has not read many books and is not good at being an official, after all, he has traveled south and north for many years, and his footprints as a businessman have traveled all over the country. In layman's terms, although Du Cheng does not have the great wisdom of governing the country and leveling the world, he has the little wisdom of stealing and making black money.

In the firewood room, there is nothing except the firewood. At this critical moment, stay here for a quarter of an hour longer, don't take any more risks, Du Cheng and Kang Ze couldn't care about the roughness of the firewood room, and simply stood and talked.

"Big official, that person deceived my master too much, not to mention beating my master in public, and even unscrupulously deducting the daily use of the little master." Kang Ze sighed heavily, and said hatefully, "Old Langjun's bones are not cold, and that person is impatient to make this ruthless move, in the future, when that little thing grows up and becomes a human being, and sits firmly in the position, then will it be repaid?" As the saying goes, you can kill but not humiliate. My master said that instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to fight with that person to the death. ”

Du Cheng naturally understood that the person Kang Ze was talking about was the current Empress Dowager Fu. As for Kang Ze's master, it is Concubine Du, and the little master is Cao Wang Xirang.

It's just that the Empress Dowager Fu is backed by the power of Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei, Wen has Fan and quality to help, and Wu has Han Tong and Zhao Kuangyin allegiance, and the power can be described as monstrous.

Thinking of this, Du Cheng couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp, and asked Kang Ze in a trembling voice: "What does your master command?" ”

Kang Ze leaned into Du Cheng's ear and whispered: "Before Lao Langjun left, my master had been waiting by his side, and he took a blank edict by his side. ”

"Ah......" Du Cheng couldn't help but be shocked, his head buzzed, and the whole person was completely frightened, and his legs couldn't help but tremble like chaff.

Du Cheng didn't expect that the daughter he raised with his own hands would eat the bear's heart and leopard gall and dare to steal Chai Rong's blank edict.

"Great official, don't you know that before Lao Langjun left, he had been cold to that person, but he was the master of my family who favored me the most?"

Kang Ze didn't like to see Du Cheng's timid and fearful obscenity, however, Concubine Du did not have any foundation in Kaifeng City, except for his father Anle Hou Du Cheng, who else could he trust in this kind of big event that broke the sky?

Du Cheng's mind was full of paste, but he also knew that it was powerful, so he cheered up and said in a trembling voice: "That's the same." ”

"Great official, my master also knows your difficulties, our strength is too small. It's just that although that person is very difficult to control, only the one on the other side of the East China Sea is her big nemesis. Kang Ze couldn't wait to smash Du Cheng's head, wanting to see why this pig's brain was so stupid?

However, Kang Ze, who has lived in the Inner Deep Palace for a long time, understands better than anyone that if he fights tiger brothers and fights father and son soldiers, if he does not rely on the help of An Lehou's father and son, no one will take care of the life or death of the concubine.

In the past, when the mountain mausoleum did not collapse, Concubine Du was particularly favored, and even with Kang Ze, the deputy knew that she could walk sideways in the palace.

Who would have thought that before the bones of the first emperor were cold, Kang Ze would change from a big red man in front of the emperor to a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouted and beat him.

Others came up and stepped on Kang Ze a few times, but it was fine. The most hateful thing is that even the godson brought out by Kang Ze himself secretly told the Empress Dowager Fu, causing him to suffer dozens of rods, not to mention being beaten to the point that his skin was broken, and the countless silver coins he had secretly received over the years were also copied and inspected.

The palace attendants, since they were cut off that thing, the only pleasure in life is power and money.

The moment he was knocked unconscious, Kang Ze secretly vowed that as long as he had the opportunity, he would take revenge completely.

"Great official, my master is very considerate of your difficulties, you and your eldest brother do not have a single soldier in their hands, and there is no important minister in the court to protect them, so you must not act rashly."

Kang Ze had already seen clearly what kind of person Du Cheng was, if he let the flag rise and rebel, he was afraid that he would be paralyzed on the spot.

Du Cheng listened to it, and he must not act rashly, but the next words of Kang Ze made him tremble with fear.

"My master said, you only need to send a few henchmen to the east to find that person under the guise of a name. That man is extremely clever, as long as he takes the treasure, he must know what to do. Kang Ze vigilantly glanced at the firewood room for a week, leaned into Du Cheng's ear, and whispered: "Once the matter is completed, the director and the young master only want to watch together, and reward some silver rice every month." ”

No matter how stupid Du Cheng is, he knows that things don't seem to be right, dare to be affectionate, he risked his life to make a wedding dress for others?

Kang Ze couldn't see Du Cheng's stupidity, so he had to grit his teeth secretly, and explained softly: "My master sold such a big favor to the person in the east, when the time comes, as long as the little master is declared to the outside world, and then find a Taoist temple under the nose of that person to live, after more than ten years, when the person's chair is stable, my little master can marry a wife and have children to inherit the lineage." ”

It wasn't until Kang Ze said it thoroughly that Du Cheng suddenly realized that he dared to love, his good girl didn't think about the supreme dragon chair at all.

After Kang Ze's reminder, Du Cheng has thoroughly understood the thoughts of his daughter Du Taiguifei, although there are risks, but it is much better than being beaten and scolded all day long, and life is better than death.

In fact, no matter how stupid Du Cheng is, he clearly knows that once the Empress Dowager Fu sits firmly in the country, Concubine Du and Cao Wang Xirang, who were originally thorns in the flesh, will definitely not end well.

At that time, the palace and the palace were full of Empress Dowager Fu's people, and it was easy and effortless to pinch Concubine Du and Cao Wang Xirang to death.

Instead of waiting for death in the future, it is better to simply send Li Zhongyi a big gift, and then push Qi Wang Xixu onto the chair to die instead.

With Du Cheng's head, he couldn't think of such an exquisite plan, but Kang Ze was like a mirror.

Concubine Du's maiden family is not strong, it is impossible to support Cao Wangxi to sit firmly on the dragon chair, and Li Zhongyi relies on the appeal of the first emperor's edict to take over the country, most of them will learn from Cao Mengde's old example, temporarily support a certain son of the first emperor, and when the time is ripe, then usurp and kill him.

Don't talk about him from afar, that's what Li Yuan, the Tang Taizu of the previous dynasty, did this, after he took Chang'an, he made Yang Guang's grandson and Yang Yu as the emperor.

After Emperor Yang of Sui was killed, Li Yuan decisively turned his face, first forced Yang Yu to abdicate, and then sent someone to kill the little emperor.

Du Cheng was frightened enough, but he was not as scared as at first, and he asked Kang Ze suspiciously: "What if the person in the east doesn't plan to keep his promise?" ”

Kang Ze nodded secretly, although Du Cheng was as stupid as a pig, he finally got the hang of it and asked what was at stake.

"Actually, so, so ......" Kang Ze explained in a very low voice, finally dispelling Du Cheng's concerns.

Du Cheng thought that his biological daughter had an unexpected trick, and the chance of success was very high, so he put the heart that had been hanging back into his stomach.

After everything was discussed, in order not to arouse suspicion, Kang Ze solemnly handed over the blank edict to Du Cheng, and left the firewood room in a hurry.

Du Cheng stuffed the edict into his sleeve, groped several times repeatedly, and confirmed that it would not be lost, then opened the door of the firewood room and walked to the courtyard.

Seeing Du Nian looking at him worriedly, Du Cheng showed a bitter smile and said hatefully: "Han'er is my only son, and he actually broke someone's life, hmph, although I am cowardly and incompetent, there is nothing to be afraid of." The dog will jump off the wall when he is in a hurry, who taught me that the Du family will be cut off from now on, and I also want that person to taste the taste of the country's destruction and death. ”

This place is not a place to speak, under the guidance of Dr. Tea, Du Cheng and Du Nian slipped out of the back door of the teahouse, and disappeared into the night without much effort.

"You will take the shipowner tonight, and you must find that person as soon as possible, and explain the meaning of the noble man on my behalf." Du Cheng was worried that after returning home, it would be easy to leak the news, so he simply found a dark place, handed over the small secret box containing a blank edict to Du Nian's hand, and stuffed him with a small note, telling him, "This is the place where the eunuch gave the money to hide, you go and take it yourself, as a coil on the road." ”

Unlike Du Cheng, Du Nian, the head of the Hou Mansion, has been helping the Du family in business in the early years. After Du Cheng became the marquis, it was he who came forward to take care of all kinds of interpersonal relationships, and in the face of such a big event, he couldn't help but think about it several times.

"Master, the upper side has been guarding the east, if I just take the secret box on the boat and go on the road, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers patrolling all over the country will ......" Du Nian's words suddenly woke up Du Cheng and immediately scared him into a cold sweat.

"Hey, I'm really used to living a comfortable life, and I'm old and confused, and I almost missed a big thing. Let's go, I'll take you somewhere, let's sit down and discuss it carefully. Du Cheng was secretly rejoicing, fortunately, he had a lot of eyes back then, and secretly opened a small shop in the suburbs of Kaifeng for tax evasion.

As soon as Kang Ze returned to the gate of the palace, he saw Meng Yao, the deputy governor of the Inner Servant Province, staring at him with a smile.

"Kang Duzhi, what are you doing here?" Meng Yao pretended to arch his hand, his face was very polite, but his bones were chilling questions.

Kang Ze returned the salute, and deliberately sighed and said: "Back to Meng Gong, today is the grand ceremony of the Changchun Temple's Prayer for Heaven and Blessing, and Concubine Du ordered the villain to add sesame oil money. ”

Meng Yao is Kang Ze's top boss, in the past, when Concubine Du was favored, this kid and Kang Ze have always been called brothers, and they are very enthusiastic.

Unexpectedly, after the death of the first emperor, Empress Dowager Fu took power, everything was turned upside down, Kang Ze became a good grandson, and was trampled under the feet by Meng Yao, which was completely inappropriate.

"Recently, things have been lost in the palace, and there are rumors from above, and the access control must be strictly checked." Meng Yao raised his chin, glanced contemptuously at Kang Ze, who looked like a turtle grandson, and shouted, "Come on, search me carefully, and don't let go of even a single hair." ”

Kang Ze hated him a lot, Meng Yao was obviously communiquéing his personal vendetta and deliberately cutting his face. Helplessly, today is different from the past, Kang Ze has to let Meng Yao bully, even if he knocks out his teeth, he must swallow it with blood.

PS: It's more than two o'clock in the morning, and the 10,000 words are finally finished, and I ask for a few monthly passes to encourage.
