Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 142 The Purpose of the Imperial City Division
Near noon, Wang Huai'en came back to report that Yuan Lijie and his party had settled in Feiyun Restaurant.

Zhao Jun thought so too, most of the inns in the city were closed during this period of time, only Feiyun Restaurant was still open, and with their identities, those small inns would definitely not go, so naturally they could only go to Feiyun Restaurant. The inn settled down.

There is no need to worry about whether the truth about Yunzhou City will be discovered if the decoration of Feiyun Restaurant is too luxurious.

Because Feiyun Restaurant has almost been chained in the entire Song Dynasty, even if it is located in the capital, the decoration style is the same everywhere.

As officials and people in the capital, they also knew the sensation caused by the unique style and delicious food of Feiyun Restaurant when it opened. The decoration of Feiyun Restaurant in Yunzhou County is different from that of other places. There is no difference between chain stores, so there is no need to worry about others being suspicious.

After receiving their destination, Zhao Jun ordered Yunzhou County to keep an eye on the movement of the party and then started to get busy.

Now that the decree has come down, and he is asked to return to the capital, although Yuan Lijie did not urge him, he should prepare his luggage and set off as soon as possible because of the situation and reason.

So he will be busy for a while when he comes next.

As for Yuan Lijie and his party, they could only let Li Yi and others deal with it, but he believed that with the arrangement in advance, there shouldn't be any problems.

……

Zhao Jun on the other end was busy preparing things to bring back to Beijing, and the group of people who had just settled down in Yunzhou Hotel on the other end returned to their rooms, and there was a knock on Yuan Lijie's door.

Regarding this, Yuan Lijie didn't have the slightest surprise on his face. He knew that someone would come looking for him, and he had already guessed who it was.

Putting down the tea he was drinking, Yuan Lijie calmly opened the door, and it turned out to be the person he guessed, the person who reminded him at the gate of the city before, and the person that his godfather arranged to come in.

Seeing Yuan Lijie opened the door, the man nodded first, then looked left and right, saw no one around, stepped into the door unceremoniously, and closed the door behind him.

And Yuan Lijie just watched his movements quietly without any reaction.

"Gu Tingyun, the commander of the Imperial City Division, met Eunuch Yuan!"

As soon as the visitor came in, he immediately bowed down, and quickly took out his token from his arms and handed it to Yuan Lijie.

Yuan Lijie was not ambiguous either. He took a look at the three big characters of Huangchengsi in the official script on a copper token, and turned it over to see a series of mysterious digital codes.

This code, Yuan Lijie knew, was a special secret order for each ministry to confirm the identity of the Imperial City Division. It is said that as long as this line of secret order is reported to the local Imperial City Division Yamen, the identity information and portrait of the Imperial City Division staff can be known immediately.

Therefore, this token is also an important basis for confirming the members of the Imperial City Division. There will be no fake ones, and the fake ones will not match the information of the local yamen where the Imperial City Division is resident.

After confirming the identity of the person who came, Yuan Lijie nodded and returned the token to Gu Tingyun. Yuan Lijie took a step back to make way for his seat, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and the two sat down immediately.

After taking their seats, Yuan Lijie first poured tea for the two of them, and then asked, "Master Gu came to our house late at night, is there anything you want?"

Although Huangcheng Division has a great reputation and has the right to supervise the secret affairs of officials, he has always been feared by officials, but he has not committed any crimes, so he has no need to be afraid of them.

And his godfather is Cao Shuang, even Lin Zhi, the boss of the Imperial City Division, would give him two points of face, so Yuan Lijie didn't panic at all when facing Gu Tingyun, the commander of the Imperial City Division, it can be said that he was full of confidence !
Gu Tingyun was not too polite, and said directly:
"Gu came here late at night because he wanted Eunuch Yuan to do a little favor."

Yuan Lijie frowned and was about to speak.

But Gu Tingyun immediately interrupted and said: "At this time, Mr. Cao sent it on his behalf. I heard that it was the emperor's intention."

Yuan Lijie frowned, and swallowed back the words he was about to refuse just now.

Since it was the godfather's account, and most likely the emperor's account, then I need to cooperate well no matter what.

After picking up the tea in front of him, he took a sip and blew on the hot air. Yuan Lijie asked the whole story.

"Eunuch Cao asked Mr. Gu to come here with our family. What is the purpose and what is it? Mr. Gu still needs the help of this king?"

Only then did Gu Tingyun explain the whole story:

"Eunuch Cao asked me to follow Eunuch Yuan to Yunzhou County. The purpose is to investigate the real situation in Yunzhou County. After all, you also know that every time His Royal Highness King Yun sends back to Beijing, he is crying for poverty. The emperor thinks Know if this is true or not?
And these two, the main purpose of my coming here is to detect the movements of the Tartars. Li Wei, the guard of the Liaoyun pass, reported to the emperor that Yunzhou County was invaded by the Tartars last year. .

So what the emperor wants to know is whether these intrusions against the Tartars were just an accidental plunder, or a prelude to the imminent invasion of the northern border by the Tartar army?

You also know that the Song Dynasty is now fighting on three fronts. Whether it is the Xiongnu in the northwest or the Japanese pirates in the southeast, the chieftains in the south are consuming a lot of silver in the treasury every year. If the Tartars invade from the north again, Then my Song Dynasty will be in a situation of fighting on all sides.

And this situation will make the already difficult Song Dynasty even worse, and the state of the empire will become more critical!
So this time we come, we must investigate clearly the problems related to the Tartars, so that the Holy One can respond in time according to the situation.

This time, the subordinates came to look for Eunuch Yuan because they wanted Eunuch Yuan to find a chance to take me to the guard army in Yunzhou County.

After all, judging from the situation, the guards of Yunzhou County really fought against the Tartars. Although it seems that they suffered heavy losses, they will definitely learn some relevant information about the Tartars.

From their mouths, the subordinates should be able to find out the most real situation.

Yuan Lijie was shocked when he heard this!
Good guy, you are going to make it difficult for our family!

That's the barracks of the guards, the capital of a feudal lord's life, you actually want to see it for yourself!

You really look down on our family!
Yuan Lijie had a headache. He really didn't know how to ask for this request, but it happened to be what his godfather and the emperor wanted. If he didn't help, his godfather would definitely have nothing good for the world after returning to Beijing. eat.

After thinking for a long time and weighing the pros and cons, Yuan Lijie finally gritted his teeth and agreed, but he put forward his own conditions.

"You can help me, but our family has to go together, and where you go, you have to listen to our family and don't cause trouble for our family.

If you cause trouble for our family, then don't blame our family for not giving face, let's show you some color, do you hear me? "

Seeing that Eunuch Yuan agreed, even though Gu Tingyun was overjoyed, he hurriedly agreed.

Not long after the work was done, Gu Tingyun ran back to his room and waited for the dawn when no one was around.
