It seems to be someone from the Magistrates' Council.
Before Kong Hexuan took over the work of the Judicial Council, Mr. Li himself was the leader of the Judicial Council. Since he came to Yunzhong City and there were spies from the Council of Judges in Yunzhong City, it was not a big deal.
Something unexpected.
But why would the people from the Magistrate's Court come to help me?
Could it be that the warning message I received on the grassland was also sent by someone from the Magistrate’s Court?
But if Mr. Li was helping him, who leaked his whereabouts to the Turks before?
Li Chongrun had a headache for a day, and in the end he didn't understand the underlying relationship.
p
And there is a bigger question, that is, if Mr. Li is his father's son, what on earth is he doing in this cloud?
According to the information I checked in the past few days and my own conjecture, the shadow of Li Laosi is everywhere behind the Turks' plan. Could it be that his father is thinking of using Shi Jingtang's methods?
Li Chongrun didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Using Fengyiwei's method, he set aside a time for the meeting, and chose the opium den as the venue. There were not many places that Li Chongrun was familiar with in Yun Zhong. This opium den where he had been hiding for several days was a helpless choice. He couldn't go there.
Let’s meet at the restaurant owned by Prince Ashina.
Time passed quickly, and it was just getting dark. Li Chongrun anxiously waited to see who came back to meet him amidst the instinctive howls around him.
However, this place cannot be said to be suitable for lurking. Not to mention the faces of several factory guards, even masters like Alan who devoted themselves to training looked a bit like a peach blossom.
Only Li Chongrun was able to calm down in this noisy environment because he had something in his heart, and he was as holy as an eminent monk in this wild impulse.
"I finally understand why King Jianchang likes to sleep in the dungeon."
Li Chongrun smiled and joked with Alan to calm down his somewhat guilty mind: "Only in the midst of trouble can you find the most tranquility. It turns out that my cousin is also a wise man who knows how to seek the sun in the dark."
Before Alan could reply, Shi1, who was outside as a waiter, knocked on the door at the agreed pace.
The relaxed atmosphere in the room just now suddenly changed. Several factory guards quickly occupied several corners of the room. Alan also straightened his breath in an instant, and stood solemnly behind Li Chongrun holding a long knife.
"As expected, it's you. It seems that not only are you Wuling people in Fengyi Guard, but even a dirty place like the Magistrate's Court has been infiltrated by you like a sieve."
The figure who followed Eleven through the door was a thin young man with a slight stoop in his back.
"It seems that Brother Run has guessed a lot of things. No wonder Uncle 3 has been praising you so much."
Naturally, the person who walked in was Brother 2, who had made an excuse to go to Yunzhou before.
"I didn't guess everything. At least I didn't guess that for the sake of a position, my father would be so shameless that he would collude with outsiders to plot his own family property."
Although the current surname in this world is Wu, generally speaking, sooner or later, the surname will be Li. So it is not wrong to say that it is a family property.
"Uncle 3 also has his own difficulties. What's more, no matter what Uncle 3's plan is, sooner or later this world will be yours, right?"
Brother 2 replied with a wry smile.
"No matter who you like in this world, I want it. I feel sick seeing your nonsense."
——
Li Chongrun felt a little angry in his heart, but he couldn't tell where the anger came from. "Give me the two Uighurs. I'll leave now."
"Uighurs?"
Brother 2 was a little strange. He didn't know why Li Chongrun suddenly burst out with such anger. However, after all, Brother 2 grew up with Li Chongrun and knew the boy's temper to some extent. He knew that now he wanted to smooth things over, so he didn't.
Let’s get entangled with him about those stories again.
"The Uighur prince and princess were kidnapped by the Turks. I promised the prince to take his wife and sister back."
Li Chongrun was a little impatient. Although his second brother had been kind to him since childhood, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful when he thought that he was reduced to collaborating with his father like Shi Jingtang.
"A lot of things are sometimes not what they seem."
Brother 2 smiled very bitterly today. But he still left an address for Li Chongrun: "The Turks rely on us for advice, but they don't dare to trust us completely. Little 4 was even trapped in the tent by the Turkic Khan and couldn't even open the door.
Come on, the hostage matter can only help you so far."
There was a strange silence in the room.
The light from the oil lamp in the room was a little erratic, flickering in Brother 2's eyes and directly reflecting on Li Chongrun's face, who was staring at the oil lamp in a daze.
After a while, the two brothers sighed in unison, the second brother cupped his hands, stood up and prepared to leave.
app,&~p.
Just when the second child was about to go out, Li Chongrun couldn't help but ask: "Did the fourth child reveal my whereabouts to the Turks?"
"Although Xiao 4 is jealous of you, he still has no intention of harming you. But he discovered that the Turks were planning to surround you, and arranged for me to remind you."
The second brother opened the door curtain and was about to go out. He turned around and added to Li Chongrun: "There is another group of Han people in Yunzhong City. I usually get along very well with Prince Ashina. Second Brother, I usually get along very well."
I spend a lot of time in the dental tent, so I haven't had much contact with them, but after all, Wu and Li are not the only two surnames in this world, right?"
Brother 2 played a riddle, opened the door and went out, leaving Li Chongrun behind the door deep in thought.
After Brother 2 left, Li Chongrun was silent in the room for a long time. It was so long that Alan and Bao'er pulled Xianhui over, who was already sleeping in a daze, and took Li Chongrun's pulse to confirm that he was not distracted as he had been before. 1
In this way, I felt a little more at ease.
On the early morning of the second day, Alan habitually got up early to practice martial arts, but found that Li Chongrun, who usually lay in bed, also got up early and was practicing aiming with a gun in the corner of the small courtyard.
"It's really rare for my husband to practice kung fu."
"It's not about practicing. I just thought about it all night and really couldn't sleep, so I thought I would tire myself out a little bit and maybe I would feel a little sleepy."
Li Chongrun smiled, wiped the sweat from his forehead, dropped the rifle in his hand, picked up the mace that was thrown aside, and stabbed a tree stump next to the wall with all his strength.
Alan originally wanted to persuade Li Chongrun, but seeing that he was practicing Qigong seriously, he was reluctant to disturb him and followed him to practice Qigong together.
explain
There are no cocks crowing in Yunzhong City, but there are chiming bells that Prince Ashina copied from Yangzhou City.
When the eight bells sounded, Bao'er and Xianhui came out of the west wing, rubbing their eyes.
"Brother is practicing martial arts early in the morning, which is really rare."
Guo'er has been following Li Chongrun for a long time and knows that he is usually lazy. Although he has learned kung fu for several years, he has never had the opportunity to fight with others. In addition, there are many ways to face the enemy. The kung fu he has practiced since childhood is only
I'm afraid I would have returned it to the master long ago.
However, I saw Li Chongrun practicing at the base of the wall very early this morning, and his momentum seemed to be more noisy than Alan who was practicing beside him, so I couldn't help but make fun of him.
"I've been waiting for you for a while. You are too lazy to go to bed at a young age. If you get married in the future, you won't have to worry about your future mother-in-law."
Li Chongrun dropped the mace in his hand, enjoying Alan's relaxation of his tense muscles, while grinning and talking back to Bao'er.
"Why do you want to practice martial arts today? Is it possible that brother is planning to lead everyone to destroy this Turkic army in one fell swoop?"
After exchanging a few words, Baoer asked Li Chongrun what he was doing.
"It's better to ask for help than to ask for yourself. Maybe in the end, you really have to rely on yourself."
There was another meaning in Li Chongrun's words. Bao'er vaguely heard it and looked a little ugly.
"I have a few things here. You can arrange them for me. I'm tired, so go take a nap first."
Seeing what Bao'er wanted to say, Li Chongrun hurriedly opened his mouth to stop Bao'er's words: "You and Hua'er go to the address given by Brother 2 yesterday and see if you can find any loopholes. Let's
Rescue people easily."
"Also, let me tell the shopkeeper of the opium shop and ask him to take me around Yunzhong City tomorrow. I have been here for so many days and I have only seen Yunzhong City on paper. It really doesn't make sense.
"
Li Chongrun stretched out a lot, twisted his nose, and went back to his room to prepare for bed. "Let Lao Guo put on his makeup and walk around the streets. Find out how many shops are opened by Han people in Yunzhong City and where they are located.
Let’s investigate the matter. Let’s come to Yunzhong City. We need to help some of our compatriots’ businesses.”
"Oh, let the shopkeeper of the opium den prepare more clothes from barbarians. I can use them later."
Li Chongrun slept for the entire day.
When the bell rang eight times on the second day, he stretched himself out of the room.
"Yesterday, I was teasing me for being lazy in bed. Brother, I slept for 12 hours, but I really slept enough."
Guo'er still disliked Li Chongrun because of Li Chongrun's ridicule yesterday, but seeing his desolate look, he came over to help him groom himself.
"What we have to do today is a bit embarrassing. Let Hua'er comb her hair. Just do it like the Turks do."
Before the accident at home, Hua'er had already received a complete bridal tutorial from her mother. Things like combing her hair were naturally a no-brainer. However, Turkic people rarely have the custom of shaving. Li Chongrun's white face and beardless look,
It looks a bit awkward with the Turkic head shape.
"Yesterday I checked the residence of the two Uighur women. It's right next to the Turkic tent. The defense is no worse than that of Prince Ashina's military camp. It's a bit difficult to deal with."
"Have the Turks restricted their freedom?"
"That's not true. The two of them went out for a walk yesterday, but there were so many Turkic guards around them that we didn't dare to get close because we were afraid of being discovered."
"Okay, I understand." Li Chongrun didn't show any special expression. Instead, he looked as he should: "Has Lao Guo found all the Han people's shops?"
"We've found them all. They're all here. There are 54 houses in total."
Li Chongrun grabbed the piece of paper with the names and addresses of the shops written on it, and looked at it: "Cross out all my shops."
"Then there won't be much."
Bao'er was unambiguous. Although he didn't know what Li Chongrun was planning to do, looking at the murderous look on his face, he knew that it probably wouldn't be something like Brother's taking care of business yesterday.
Of the 54 shops opened by Han people in Yunzhong City, 312 were owned by his own family or the Wang family. After the owner of the opium shop came over, he crossed out two more shops opened by Chen Ziang. After thinking about it, he deleted them again.
The shop opened by the governor of the two camps and his cousin Wei Changshi.
"In other people's capitals, most of the people doing business are our own people."
Li Chongrun smiled and showed off the scrawled note in his hand to Bao'er and Xianhui. "If your Majesty investigates later, will he say that we are colluding with the enemy?"
"We have earned money from these barbarians so that we can help the court make more cannons. How could your Majesty pursue it? Maybe he will give you a reward."
With the help of Hua'er, Li Chongrun put on a suit of clothes commonly worn by Turkic teenagers, brought several factory guards and Alan who were also disguised as Turks, and led by the shopkeeper of the opium shop in Yunzhong City.
Started shopping.
"So this is the Zheng family's opium den?"
The first unlucky guy was another opium shop that opened on the same street as Chen Ziang's opium shop. Chen Ziang was a scholar after all, and his behavior was a bit low-key. Although the Zheng family's opium shop did not have the same products as Fan Yang sent from Yingzhou.
The goods are so authentic, but the methods used to attract customers are much more authentic.
Although it was only 3 o'clock in the morning, several scantily clad beauties were already twisting their red waists caressed by the harsh spring cold on the small stage at the entrance of the opium den.
"shameless."
Although Alan has seen battles like those in the West Market, he is still in the imperial state after all. Although these methods have already been mastered by the entertainment industry in Shendu, they are all done behind closed doors after the street cleaning drums are beaten.
How can you dare to use these methods in public in public?
body
"What Madam said makes sense. I smashed this shameless place."
Seeing the shopkeeper of the opium shop nodding disdainfully, Li Chongrun waved his hand, rushed forward first and smashed him hard.
Alan didn't know how Li Chongrun became such a Taoist defender, and he couldn't react for a while. However, several factory guards reacted quickly. When they saw Li Chongrun making a move, they also rushed forward, all the way.
Smash him in through the door of the opium shop.
"Where did this lunatic come from? Didn't you know that the person standing behind us is the Righteous King Quetel?"
A disheveled fat man, surrounded by several equally disheveled women, hurriedly ran out of the room on the second floor of the opium shop. When he saw a few young people wearing Turkic clothes smashing things, he hurriedly used Turkic...
The words shouted.
At noon, the Yunzhong City above was already a bit lively, and there was a flow of people on the street. Seeing a wave of Turks smashing up Han people's shops, several Han people passing by exchanged glances with each other.
, walked over in a hurry with his head lowered.
There were also many Turks passing by who saw some compatriots smashing up Han people's shops. They looked at the excitement and cheered. After a while, some Turks also joined in.
Sneaking things out secretly.
A place like the opium den is naturally indispensable for a large number of bodyguards and thugs, but after all, these barbarians hired by the Zheng family from Yunzhong City have never heard of the name of the Yangzhou Seven Tigers. Before the shopkeeper of the Zheng family opium den showed some joy, 1
The bodyguards and thugs had long since become a gourd, flying everywhere.
"Go back and tell your master that you can forget about this matter. You will have to pay a price for cheating me!"
3 times 5 times 2 times tied the fat man of the Zheng family into a gourd. Li Chongrun lay down in his ear and whispered something in his ear, shouting a Turkic language that he learned from Lao Guo to indicate retreat. Li Chongrun
He led everyone and rushed out a few minutes faster than they rushed in.
~Novel app,-app..
However, when the Turks who were watching the battle saw this gang of ferocious children rushing out of the door, they also rushed into the opium shop with great tacit understanding. In a short time, not to mention the valuable items in the opium shop, even
The dancing girls who were trembling with fear at the door were all pushed away by the Turks. The originally splendid opium den turned into a construction site in the blink of an eye.
"Leave one brother behind and keep an eye on who this fat man from the Zheng family will complain to. Let's go with the rest!"
After turning two intersections and confirming that no one was following him, Li Chongrun gave instructions and continued to search for the next shop.
"I heard that my brother destroyed all the Han shops except his own shop today, and only one shop that makes tofu survived?"
"That tofu shop was opened by a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law who came from Hanoi. The man in the family got the root of the disease during the war. Not only did he spend all his savings on the treatment, but he also gave away all the money of the family to the monk. He was about to starve to death.
I just found a job as a cook for the Turkic caravans, and it took me a lot of time and effort to get a foothold in Yunzhong City. However, I was inevitably affected by this today. I gave them some of the stolen money, so that
They waited for the limelight to pass and followed the flowers."
Li Chongrun explained to Bao'er.
"You know I don't want to ask about the tofu shop."
Bao'er was angry and laughing at the same time. "It's not easy to make a living. We Han people shouldn't have the same spirit, right?"
"Then they have to be compatriots who don't stab me in the back." Li Chongrun grinned: "The biggest fear when you come out to hang out is that you clearly regard them as one of your own, and they still want to play tricks with us, so don't
It's my fault for taking action first. Not to mention, they are all from aristocratic families."
"Shangguan, there are a few other shops that are not Han Chinese, but they all come from a few aristocratic families. Do you want to find someone to deal with them too?"
Although the owner of the opium shop had already guessed Li Chongrun's identity, he still addressed him in the manner of the Control Council.
"Hey, just take care of it and ask for information. It's not easy to put a spy in the yard. Just leave the rough work of smashing, looting and burning to us outsiders. You don't need to move."
Li Chongrun admired the shopkeeper Chen Ziang found and patted him on the shoulder to encourage him, telling him to just concentrate on doing his own thing well.
Not long after it got dark, the brothers who had been deployed to follow the victims came back one after another.
"What? Are you all here?"
Li Chongrun looked with some surprise at the shop in front of the small courtyard where he was hiding: "Dan, these aristocratic families have to complain to our own family?"
