Revisiting

In the Yanfu Palace, Emperor Daojun looked at Zhao Tong with a kind and kind face and said, "My son is here?"

Zhao Tong saluted and said, "Dad looks better today. Could it be that he has made further progress in his cultivation?"

Emperor Daojun stroked his beard and said with a smile: "My son is used to talking, which makes me feel relieved!"

Zhao Tong said: "It is a child's duty to be able to relieve his father's work and worries. The child is even more happy."

Emperor Daojun nodded, looked at Zhao Tong for a moment, pointed to a pair of paperweight lions made of mutton-fat jade on the table, and said: "This was given to me by Captain Wang when I was not in power, and it has been with me all these years."

, and there is also a jade dragon penholder, also made by this craftsman, so I will give it to my second brother."

Zhao Tong looked at the paperweight lion. It was extremely well-made, delicate and exquisite, and he couldn't help but thank him: "Thank you dad for the gift. The child was so happy when he saw this object that he wished he could put it in front of his eyes to enjoy it all the time."

Emperor Daojun nodded: "Second brother, I'm calling you to ask a question today."

Zhao Tong said: "Father, please speak. My children are all ears."

Emperor Daojun was silent for a moment and stood up from the dragon chair: "Second brother has been running a mansion for a long time, and now he is in charge of patrolling the inner and outer cities. Do you know...do you know what is underneath this capital?"

Zhao Tong was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said: "There are ditches under the capital, criss-crossing them. In real terms, they are probably as big as Kaifeng Mansion."

Zhao Tong said: "But what else did you ask?"

Emperor Daojun shook the lotus fly in his hand and said coldly: "Beside the couch, others are snoring, but what about the thief, I still have the final say in this court!"

When Emperor Daojun heard this, he immediately took a breath and said angrily: "Kaifeng Mansion deserves to die. It suppresses thieves every year, but fails every year. How can I be allowed to lie on top of the thieves every night?"

Zhao Tong said: "I am willing to relieve dad from all worries!"

Zhao Tong's expression was respectful and silent.

Zhao Tong said: "I'm not busy. I'll ask him. I'll go and call Huang Gu over. I'll also call the Ding brothers."

Emperor Daojun said: "I see, I think Tokyo has developed waterways and is close to the Yellow River, so it had to be built like this."

Zhao Tong said: "Yes, my child takes the order!"

Zhao Tong said: "Of course there is. Although this ditch is not an open place, it is often narrow or wide, but it stretches for an extremely long time, and there is no shortage of it below the imperial city."

"Okay, okay!" Emperor Daojun stroked his beard and said, "Move troops to suppress it. In one month... no, half a month later, I will not be able to see that there is a bandit underground!"

Emperor Daojun looked at him with eyes as bright as lightning: "Second brother, can you help me relieve my worries?"

Zhao Tong took a step back and said politely: "I dare not hide this from my father. There are murderers everywhere in the ditches. Even under the imperial city, I am afraid that they will not be spared!"

Emperor Daojun took a lotus fly whisk from behind his chair, held it in his arms and said, "Is there also a ditch under this imperial city?"

"How about entering a brothel?"

Seeing Zhao Tong coming over, Ouyang Bei hurriedly put away the blade and crossed his hands in greeting.

Ouyang Bei took the order and went out. Zhao Tong picked up the drawing on the table and said: "Zhu Xiaoyi, let me ask you again, are there any errors or omissions in this map?"

Zhu Xiaoyi said: "Huanxi Cave is engaged in the business of girls and children. All the obedient ones are sold to the superiors. The Zhenlie ones are left to be trained by themselves. They also open a brothel underground. They usually solicit business without distinguishing between superiors and inferiors. The ones from above are

Guests use the outer entrance, while guests coming and going use the inner entrance."

After a while, Zhao Tong left the palace and went straight to the Broken Jade Tower.

Zhu Xiaoyi said: "The underground brothel is called Huanxi Building. People below can come and go as they like if they have money. As for the people above, they need to be introduced, otherwise they will not be allowed in."

Emperor Daojun said: "Second brother, why don't you dare to say it? Even if you don't tell me, I know better. We used troops to suppress it when the country was founded. In recent years, Kaifeng Prefecture has also arrested it, but it has never been eradicated, right or wrong?"

When Zhao Tong heard this, he immediately showed a look of struggle on his face. Seeing the gloomy look on Emperor Daojun's face, he said: "Dad, I don't dare to say anything!"

Zhu Xiaoyi said feebly: "Your Majesty, how can I dare to deceive you in the slightest? I have grown up in Guifanlou since I was a child, but I don't know whose child was abducted. I am so pitiful. Now my Majesty is going to attack Guifanlou."

, I hate that I can’t help the king, so how can I dare to deceive him.”

Zhao Tong said: "Only to relieve dad's worries, why are you greedy for rewards? We just need to mobilize troops underground. It cannot be said to be huge, but I don't know all the gentlemen in the court..."

Zhao Tong said: "Is it true?"

Emperor Daojun said: "Second brother, if this is done, I will have my own reward."

Zhao Tong said: "What is the headlock style?"

Zhao Tong said: "Father Shengming, I remember when I read the Notes on Daily Life of this Dynasty, it said that Emperor Taizu always wanted to move the capital to Luoyang, Xijing. Eighty percent of the reason was that the terrain in Kaifeng was too flat, there was no danger to defend, and there were frequent floods.

It was hanging over my head, but later it was not possible to make the trip because of the convenience of transporting grain."

Emperor Daojun frowned and stretched out his foot to lightly tap the ground: "Second brother, under the imperial city..."

Zhao Tong nodded. This Huanxi Cave not only trafficked people, but also opened its own brothel and solicited business on the ground. It must be said that it was extremely bold.

Zhao Tong said: "Not only have they not been eradicated, more and more of the murderers inside are on the run, committing crimes, robbing and kidnapping, and even dividing into factions. It's like a city under a city!"

Zhao Tong said: "I see in your picture, there are two entrances to Huanxi Cave, divided into inner and outer, but what do they mean?"

Zhu Xiaoyi said: "He is the governor of Huanxi Building, responsible for welcoming people and sending them off."

When Zhao Tong heard this, he secretly thought that the plan was indeed successful. It seemed that Zhang Di had made a lot of suggestions, so that he could send troops to destroy the ghost Fanlou. He hurriedly said: "My child will live up to his father's wishes when he accepts the order!"

In the underground secret room of Suiyu Tower, Ouyang Bei was rubbing Zhu Xiaoyi's face with a razor blade, making the thief tremble like chaff all over his body.

Zhao Tong said: "I want to go there, what method do I need?"

Zhu Xiaoyi was stunned and said hurriedly: "Could it be that the real king wants to hunt for snakes? This is simple. I am familiar with the lock handle on that building. If I lead the way, there will be no problem."

Zhu Xiaoyi: "I haven't read a book, but I can't remember the difference between the three houses' sites and the approximate headcount. It's just that if the underground channel in the drawing is skewed, it's not my fault. It's really crooked and difficult to draw."

"

Ouyang Beidao: "Sir, Mr. Huang Louzhu and I took turns to interrogate him. We used the method of boiling the eagle taught by the master. However, this thief's knowledge is really limited. The specific location of the leader of Wuyou Cave is unknown."

Emperor Daojun coughed lightly: "I have seen it earlier, and I have a rough idea. Second brother, let me ask you, are there people living in these underground ditches that are so deep and crisscrossed?"

While they were talking, several people came out, including Huang Gu, Jian Suyi, Ouyang Bei, and the Ding brothers.

Several people greeted each other, and Zhao Tong looked at the Ding brothers. These two people were from Moshan Village in Songjiang Prefecture. They were called Ding Da Crab and Ding Er Crab. They were good at swimming in water and walking underground.

Walking underground was a folk activity, and it was one of the most historic sites in Gyeonggi Province. The two of them came to do "business" around Kaifeng Prefecture, but they happened to be drunk and talked nonsense, so they were caught by the store's reporter.

They were caught doing this kind of thing and wanted to be paraded in the streets. Zhao Tong happened to meet them. Seeing that they had this kind of ability but had not done any serious evil, he asked them to come over. The two of them were loyal, so they ended up in Suiyulou.
