I don't know if Qu Ke deliberately hid something, or if it was really because of his limitations in prison, Yang Zhi reported to Taiyuan under the pretext of giving Shi Mojie and Shen Chong two days without asking anything, and after Zhao Kai sent Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi decided to send people to Taiyuan.

Yang Zhi invited Lu Zhishen to a meal at the reopened Jinyuan Restaurant in Youzhou City, but considering that Lu Zhishen was in a hurry on the road, Yang Zhi did not put wine despite Lu Zhishen's objections, so that Li Jinyi, who was present together, agreed. Lu Zhishen ate more than two catties of beef in one breath and said: "Senior brother, there is no wine in your mouth is too light, I don't eat it; I know this Quke, but I didn't expect to hide in Xixia for so many years."

Lu Zhishen was a personal soldier of the plant, and later he also listened to the order under the planter's account, Yang Zhi moved in his heart and asked, "Do you know Qu Ke?"

"Understood. Lu Zhishen recalled: "Qu Ke was born in the rivers and lakes, a first-class master, and once performed the kung fu of slapping a vicious dog to death in the army. ”

Yang Zhi was stunned for a moment, he and Shen Chong had both tried Qu Ke, and there was no internal force at all, could it be that he ran to Western Xia to escape trouble because he lost his internal strength twenty years ago? But this statement is reasonable, and it can explain why Qu Ke and Jing Pre can be mixed together, and in the end, Jing Pre died, and Qu Ke is still alive. Yang Zhi spat fiercely in his heart, and wanted to run back to Shi Mojie and stomp a few feet on Qu Ke.

Li Jinyi came to accompany him today because he wanted to go to Taiyuan with Lu Zhishen all the way, and when he saw Yang Zhi's rare hesitation, he knew that the situation Lu Zhishen said was very useful to Yang Zhi; although Li Jinyi was Zhao Kai's confidant, he also had a good relationship with Yang Zhi, and took the initiative to say: "Yang Shuai, I am very curious about this Qu Ke, since Qu Ke and Lu Zhishen are old friends, can they go and meet together." ”

It is the norm of life to praise people in the officialdom, and many people have done the same, and there is nothing uncomfortable in Li Jinyi's heart when it is Li Jinyi's turn; Li Jinyi knows to what extent his situation in Shaanxi Zhifu Division has deteriorated, and most of the generals who lead the troops are well-informed figures, and they all know that Li Jinyi is the eyes and ears of Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, in the army, and many things are intentionally or unintentionally avoided Li Jinyi, and Li Jinyi understands that he must change such an embarrassing situation, and Yang Zhi's attitude is very important.

Yang Zhi smiled and said: "I won't go, when you two go over, Senior Brother Lu will tell Lord Shi Mo Jieshi about the situation, and delay for an hour before leaving." ”

"No problem. Lu Zhishen spoke simply, Yang Zhi opened his mouth as his boss, naturally he had no opinion, and went away with Li Jinyi's confession; Yang Zhi drank two glasses of wine alone, and then slowly left the restaurant, and together with Cai Qing and Wu Song, he walked down the street towards the office of the Fu Division. Yang Zhi and the others all came on horseback, and now they were not in a hurry, and several personal soldiers led the horses and walked behind.

The soldiers of the Dingbei Army patrolled the streets, their helmets were bright and their armor was shining, and the weapons in their hands were particularly dazzling in the snowlight; Yang Zhi looked at the shops on the streets on both sides that had recovered a little bit of vitality, and shook his head helplessly, after more than 100 years, the people in Youzhou City have changed several generations, and most of them have forgotten that Youzhou was originally the land of the Great Song Dynasty, and even now, there is still resistance to the Han people who come to do business.

Yang Zhi secretly thought, it seems that there must be a little thunder trick to send away some of the thorns; the people of Western Xia are fierce, they don't give some color, and good words are only effective for two kinds of people, the bottom of the small merchants and hawkers and the powerful like Cao Zimu. Yang Zhi prepared for the worst in his heart and sighed.

A person on the side of the road watched Yang Zhi approach from a distance, and suddenly stepped forward and said, "You are the caregiver of Lord Yang, the little old man has a grievance to say." ”

Yang Zhi was stopped by the owner of a small wine shop, the kind of wine shop that sells department stores, the boss is not Han, he should be a member of the party, about fifty years old, he looks a little sloppy, but among the people of Xixia that Yang Zhi saw, he is clean and exquisite. Cai Qing stepped forward and said, "What are you wronged?"

The boss said unhurriedly: "Someone is bullying me, I'm going to you to recognize someone." ”

The boss's calmness is beyond the scope of ordinary people, Yang Zhi is a little curious, his army can be said to be strictly disciplined, there are officers and soldiers patrolling the street every day, who can bully this old man; Yang Zhi asked Cai Qing to lead people to guard the wine shop, and he took the old man back to the office. The old man saw that Yang Zhi asked someone to bring a bag of mare's milk wine, and suddenly asked, "Do you know Guo Sisong?"

The people around him were stunned, could it be that the person who went to make trouble reported his name? Yang Zhi only felt that this name was familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, Guo Sisong was a pseudonym used by his father in Western Xia, in order to avoid being chased and killed by the Western Xia people when necessary. Yang Zhi didn't expect to meet a Xixia man who knew his father's name, the old man in front of him must have something to do with his father, Yang Zhi smiled and said, "It's my father." ”

The old man nodded and said, "The answer is correct, someone asked me to bring a sentence, the person who betrayed them is called Xie Xu, and the person who sent a letter to Xixia is called Hu Dengyun." ”

Yang Zhi's face changed suddenly, Xie Shi's father was called Xie Xu, Hu Sanniang's father was Hu Dengyun, Hu Dengyun was still a person from the Thousand Tribulations Gate of the Phantom Sea;

Yang Zhi asked, "What's your name?"

"Tibetan Liao Tong. The old man said calmly: "I am a descendant who did not hide the false Pang, and I am also a person who needs to hide my head and face in Western Xia, I was originally a hunter hiding in the mountains, it was your father who saved me in the mountains, and arranged for me to open a wine shop in Youzhou." Your father paid for the wine, and I was just a shopkeeper looking at the store, but I didn't expect your father to come again. ”

Yang Zhi hummed and asked, "Who is the person who asked you to bring the message?"

"A man with your father, your father called him Monk Jia. Zang Liao Tong recalled: "Your father often came to my residence in the mountains at that time, and Monk Jia came twice, so they knew each other; one year Monk Jia suddenly appeared alone in Youzhou City, saying that your father had transferred back to Bianliang, and told him about my wine shop when he left. I told him that I was not a fine work of the Great Song Dynasty, and Monk Jia said it was okay, and just yesterday, Monk Jia suddenly appeared and asked me to send a message to you. ”

Yang Zhi knew that the five subordinates of his father's group were Zhukong, Monk Jia, Mu Linan, Zhuo Li, and Wu Lu, and before he died, Wu Lu said that the families of Zhu Kong, Jia Monk, and Mu Linan were all dead, and now there are still fish that have slipped through the net, and Zhuo Li can continue to look for silver mines, and nine times out of ten it is related to Jia Monk. Yang Zhi was not sure whether Monk Jia had left the city, so he could only find a painter and ask Zang Liao Tong to depict Monk Jia's current appearance.
