Liu Jingting and Yan Yingyuan accepted the task, Liu Jingting went to Nanjing City to be responsible for contacting Sun Tai, and Yan Yingyuan went to Fengyang Mansion City to contact Ma Shiying. It should be said that this task is arduous, even life-threatening, in case Sun Tai and Ma Shiying are desperately loyal to the imperial court, then the two may be sent to the imperial court, and the feasibility of being directly beheaded occupies 100%.

Everyone is also a little incomprehensible about sending these two people to complete such a major task, it is said that the status of these two people is not very high, and they were not official officials of the imperial court before, Liu Jingting used to tell stories, Yan Yingyuan was just a clerk before, and he was not able to enter the stream, Su Tiancheng sent these two people, is it a little demeaning to the identities of Sun Tai and Ma Shiying, will it make the two of them feel dissatisfied, which will affect the process of contact.

Su Tiancheng didn't see it this way, he sent Liu Jingting and Yan Yingyuan, he thought carefully and seriously, first of all, the fame of the two is not very big, so naturally they will not attract the attention of the imperial court and Nanjing, so that after the two of them arrived in Nanjing and Fengyang Mansion respectively, they can find opportunities to contact Sun Tai and Ma Shiying, and secondly, both of them are well-spoken characters, can analyze the pros and cons of things, and have the ability to impress people, the most important thing is that although the identities of the two are not very noble, they represent Su Tiancheng, The weight will naturally rise, if Sun Tai and Ma Shiying still think about their identities, and they are thinking about the grade of the negotiation, Su Tiancheng will feel disappointed, there is another reason for this, that is, Liu Jingting and Yan Yingyuan will not attract everyone's attention, and they will naturally be able to protect the safety of Sun Tai and Ma Shiying to the greatest extent.

Accepting such an important task, Liu Jingting and Yan Yingyuan did not expect it, although Su Tiancheng talked to them alone and fully encouraged them, but the two were still very apprehensive. It's not for their own safety, it's mainly about whether they can complete the task, in the thinking of the ancients, the identity is deep-rooted, that is, the so-called right person, both of them feel that their status is too low. You must know that Sun Tai and Ma Shiying are both members of the second rank or above in the imperial court, and their identities are very prominent.

Before leaving, the two went to the restaurant to drink together, encouraging each other, and they were determined to complete the task. In fact, the conditions they are facing are still good, in Nanjing and Fengyang Fucheng, there are already people doing the previous work, the two mainly represent Su Tiancheng, and Sun Tai and others directly pick out the topic, hoping that Sun Tai and Ma Shiying will make a clear choice.

In the face of danger, the two of them simply didn't care about it, and they got such an important trust. Even if it was to lose his life, it would not be a big deal. Scholars die for confidants, this is the case in ancient times, Su Tiancheng has become the emperor in their eyes, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die.

Liu Jingting's entry into Nanjing City was very smooth. Although it is said that Nanjing City is heavily guarded, all this vigilance is nothing to Qu Qingze, Su Jun and others, who have been prepared for a long time, and Su Jun is in the intelligence network set up by Su Jun. There is a special person who can get a pass from Ying Tianfu and even the Nanzhili Military Department.

In fact, Liu Jingting still has a certain reputation in Nanjing, but the time in Nanjing is too short, and he was soon recruited by Su Tiancheng, so in Nanjing, there are not many people who are familiar with Liu Jingting, and Liu Jingting was a storyteller at the beginning, those who know Liu Jingting, what they think of in their hearts is entertainment, listening to Liu Jingting's storytelling, respect is absolutely not talked about, just like saying that many scholars go to the Qinhuai River to prostitute themselves, but ask them to marry prostitutes, then they will retreat.

Liu Jingting's characteristics are still a little obvious, mainly because there are pockmarks on his face, which also makes Liu Jingting's image somewhat discounted, in the Ming Dynasty, an era that pays attention to personal appearance, Liu Jingting can get Su Tiancheng's attention and become a court official, which can be said to be the result of Su Tiancheng's eclectic talent, so Liu Jingting is absolutely loyal.

After entering Nanjing City, Liu Jingting soon came to the Juxian Inn and stayed.

This Juxian Inn has a certain reputation, mainly because of Su Tiancheng, although many readers cursed Su Tiancheng, but Juxian Inn and Sihai Restaurant are still their favorites, all because Su Tiancheng has lived and eaten in these places, in fact, the hearts of these readers still admire Su Tiancheng and regard Su Tiancheng as their idol.

Although Qian Qianyi came to Nanjing City, he sneered at Juxian Inn and Sihai Restaurant, but unfortunately people still regard this place as a holy place, and the owners of inns and restaurants must of course try their best to maintain business.

Liu Jingting lived in the Juxian Inn, which had been arranged a long time ago, and his letter of request for a meeting was also transferred directly to Sun Tai's hands through secret channels, and the next thing was to wait for news at the Juxian Inn.

Two days have passed, Liu Jingting is a little anxious, from the perspective of safety, after entering the inn, he does not leave home, the daily meals are delivered by the guys, although there are many famous attractions in Nanjing, but these things are not Liu Jingting's concern at all, he needs to consider big things.

When the innkeeper entered the room, Liu Jingting had a hunch, it seemed that the possibility of success already existed, in the past two days, he had been paying attention to the situation around the inn, observing the movement outside from the window, and did not see the sergeant surrounding the Juxian Inn, and there was no abnormal situation in the Juxian Inn.

In the man's hand, he held a letter.

After receiving the letter, Liu Jingting held back his excitement and opened the letter, there was only time and place on it, and he was in a private room on the third floor of the Sihai Restaurant.

Looking at the time, it was almost time for Shen, Liu Jingting hurriedly made preparations, adjusted his mood and set off.

Coming to the Four Seas Restaurant, Liu Jingting, under the leadership of the guy, went straight up to the third floor and entered the private room, in the process, he didn't say a word, and the interested guy didn't ask.

At the time of the unitary, a man with a hat entered the private room.

Although he didn't walk out of the private room, Liu Jingting could feel that there were people guarding the outside of the private room.

After the visitor took off the hat, he spoke expressionlessly.

"This official is Sun Tai, are you Liu Jingting, so bold, dare to enter Nanjing City, I am not afraid that this official will take you and ask you for the crime."

Liu Jingting smiled slightly, stood up and saluted Sun Taiji, and then spoke.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, if you're afraid, you won't come directly to the restaurant, and you won't live in the Juxian Inn and write a letter to the adults."

Sun Tai looked at Liu Jingting carefully, and there was still no expression on his face.

"Your situation, the official knows a little bit about it, he used to be a storyteller, and his mouth is very good, but today the official came by appointment, do you want to be clever and make the official believe you."

These words were ironic, and dissatisfaction was also revealed, but Liu Jingting had already prepared and would not care at all.

"My lord knows the past of the road, this is nothing, that is, many people around His Royal Highness King De, also know the past of the road, according to such an experience, thinking about entering the officialdom, it is wishful thinking, but His Royal Highness the King of Germany does not care about these at all, a force to promote in the next, in the next is deeply admired, His Royal Highness King De values the merits of everyone, the so-called inch is long, the ruler is short, His Royal Highness King De does not value everyone's origin at all, to say that His Royal Highness King De is around, there are too many such people, Among them, the most outstanding is Liu Tiehan, the commander of the guard of the Jiangning Battalion Scout Battalion, who is an example for his subordinates to learn, and His Royal Highness King De is also sincere to others, so he can achieve such an achievement. ”

Sun Tai's expression softened slightly, but it was hard to see.

"This official doesn't care about your identity, it seems that you are too careful."

"Your Excellency is careful, and you don't care about it, before leaving, His Royal Highness King De has already instructed, if the adult comes to take people with his identity, and has a different approach, then today's negotiation is not necessary, if there is a trace of resentment, it is very normal, His Royal Highness the King of Germany sent to contact the adult, but also to consider the safety of the adult, if Lord Yang and Lord Fan come to this Nanjing City, I am afraid that just entered the city of Nanjing, the adult will suffer, in the next thought, If you can't appreciate the painstaking efforts of His Royal Highness, then you shouldn't be. ”

Sun Tai's face finally changed, Liu Jingting's words were reasonable and well-founded, so that he could not refute them, and Su Tiancheng was indeed thinking about him, these details can move people, and they are also the best means of negotiation.

Of course, Sun Tai will not forget the main purpose of coming today, the choice of taking refuge in Su Tiancheng, he has not thought about it, but there is still a lot of hesitation in his heart, after all, he betrayed the imperial court, and such a reputation is very bad.

Next, Sun Tai did not directly talk about taking refuge in Su Tiancheng, but asked Liu Jingting about some of his personal experiences, including those encounters in Nanjing, to know that at that time, Su Tiancheng was still the magistrate of Jiangning County.

Liu Jingting is not in a hurry, one by one explained his many experiences, in this process, Liu Jingting highlighted the advantages of Su Tiancheng's knowledge of people, especially the generosity of employing people, and it is precisely because of these actions that Su Tiancheng has succeeded step by step, as for the measures in Shandong, Zhejiang and Fujian, Liu Jingting also made a special introduction, especially the changes in Zhejiang, in less than a year, after the autumn harvest in Zhejiang, the people basically do not have to go hungry, this is a huge credit, It also fully proves that the measures implemented by Su Tiancheng are correct.

The more Sun Tai listened, the more startled he became, and later, he almost forgot what he was here for and what kind of attitude he needed to maintain, and the conversation between the two was like an exchange between scholars. (To be continued......)
