Where is the sword of the reborn eagle

Guo Mo suddenly had a whim and wanted to taste the taste of the imperial dining room.

"Uncle Yang, you can stay at the fourth master's place with peace of mind, and I will send someone to notify you as soon as there is news."

"Fourth master, Uncle Yang is still injured, so you can take care of him. He hasn't eaten all day, so let's arrange dinner. I'll go first."

"Mo'er, you don't want to leave without eating?" Nan Xiren was a little surprised.

"Hehe, fourth master, it's all at the door of 'home', I have to go back and have a look, and I can have a good meal."

Guo Mo said it very cryptically, but Nan Xiren understood what he meant and laughed too.

"Hehe, what Mo'er said is right. Then I won't keep you for dinner as a teacher. Be careful. Brother Yang is here with me, so don't worry. If you need to do anything for your teacher, come to me at any time."

Guo Mo didn't ride a yellow puma either, so he kept it with Nan Xiren for the time being, and quietly went out through the small gate in the backyard.

I have been to "Lin'an" twice, and I have some understanding of the basic streets.

Guo Mo went directly to Tianjie Yudao and headed south.

At this time, it was not completely dark yet, and it was obviously impossible to enter through the "Li Main Gate", unless he was willing to show the gold medal of "Like me in person".

He walked around to the right for a certain distance, and came to a place with a relatively high palace wall. He knew that the higher the palace wall, the more relaxed the patrol.

What's more, at this hour, if there were night walkers, no one would choose this hour.

The palace wall here is more than three feet high. Guo Mo saw that there was no one around, and a "Golden Goose Art" jumped up.

The current Guo Mo, using the "Golden Goose Kungfu" again, is no longer comparable to the past, and he has jumped to a height of two feet in an instant.

He lightly pressed his hands on the palace wall, borrowed his strength again, and jumped onto the wall with his waist and eyes in the air.

Looking down at no one around, he floated and landed in the courtyard of the palace.

According to Guo Mo's judgment, at this time, Emperor Ningzong is likely to be in Qinzheng Hall or Funing Hall, both of which are his sleeping halls.

To identify the direction, first go to the direction of Funing Palace.

Although it is the first time here, Guo Mo, who was a department in his previous life, liked to study these things, and he still has some understanding of the topographic maps of the imperial palaces of several dynasties.

On the way, I escaped several teams of soldiers on night watch, and saw a place from a distance.

No matter how far away he was, Guo Mo could feel that there were more than a dozen guards around him.

From the internal breath of the other party, one can tell that it is definitely not a mediocrity, it seems that this is the place, so I took a look at the plaque "Funning Hall" with sufficient eyesight.

Reining in his own breath, using the "Lingbo Weibu" movement technique, he reached the entrance of Funing Hall, opened the curtain, and walked in.

"Old fellow, do you think that other people can come in and out of my palace at will? It's been two days, and none of those people from the night before have been caught?"

Emperor Ningzong was sitting behind the book, holding a secret booklet in his hand, complaining about the old eunuch.

"Everyone, you can't completely blame the boys below. It's just that the people who came here this time are too powerful. The one who can know their identities now is that 'Xi Du' Ouyang Feng who is the most troublesome."

"The kung fu of the other two masked men is not inferior to him in terms of old slaves. If they didn't seem to be looking for something and had no intention of fighting, our casualties would have been more serious."

"However, this time it's not completely fruitless. We lost one master here, and four of the first-rate masters over there."

"As for the person who broke into the palace, we also killed one person. Now his identity has been determined. This person is called 'Dragon King of Ghost Gate' Sha Tongtian. He is the leader of the 'Yellow River Gang' in the north and one of the five major worshipers of King Zhao's Mansion of the Kingdom of Jin. .”

"The old slave has to take this opportunity to fight for more power of the 'Imperial City Secretary'. Everyone, it's getting late, you should pass on the meal."

The old eunuch seemed to be gloating a little.

"A worthless old thing, he is incompetent, but he still laughs at others. You must strengthen your defenses. I don't want to see people who can enter and leave the palace at will."

"Everyone, don't worry, the current imperial palace is impenetrable, and the old slave has already surrounded the 'Funning Hall' with more than a dozen guards. They are all masters, and they are definitely not even a bird... Hey, I--"

The old eunuch was making a promise to Emperor Ningzong, when the light in front of his eyes dimmed, he realized that there was a person standing two steps away from the front of the book, looking at him with a smile.

"I...I—"

The old eunuch opened his mouth several times, but was unable to speak.

Xin said, "My young master, you are really my real grandfather. Didn't you slap this old slave in the face? You martial arts masters are too bullying, right?"

"Old guy, what's the matter? You...Moer—"

Hearing the old eunuch standing there faltering, Emperor Ningzong couldn't help being a little surprised, and when he looked up, he saw Guo Mo's smiling face.

"Mo'er, why did you come to the palace? What's the matter? Have you eaten yet? Old guy, hurry up, get someone to pass on the meal, and bring more. Haha——"

Emperor Ningzong was overjoyed to see Guo Mo coming to the palace suddenly, and he didn't care about entanglement with the old eunuch anymore, he kept urging him to pass on the meal.

"Hey, as soon as I saw this young master, our official family forgot everything..."

Not long after, a large table was filled with dishes.

"His Royal Highness, the official family is very frugal on weekdays, and they have never been so extravagant during Chinese New Year. You are here..."

"You old man, where are you talking so much? You also want to learn from those censors to 'hear the wind and give advice'?"

Guo Mo wasn't too polite either. He hadn't eaten or drank all day and he was really hungry. He shook off his cheeks and molars, like a storm.

The old eunuch watched from the side, and said to himself, "Master, how long has it been since you ate?"

Emperor Ningzong watched with a smile all the time, living in the deep palace all day, where could he see such a scene of eating.

Watching your son eat, the more you eat, the happier you are as a parent. This seems to be an eternal truth.

Emperor Ningzong didn't eat much, but Guo Mo ate a lot, and finally drank two bowls of imperial wine before he burped in satisfaction.

"Mo'er, when you come to the palace today, don't you just want to have a meal with Daddy?"

Seeing that Guo Mo was almost eating enough, Emperor Ningzong asked.

Guo Mo didn't hide anything, so he told what happened in Niujia Village and said he wanted to find out if there was any news about these people.

"His Royal Highness, it's a coincidence that you came here. The latest news from the 'Huangcheng Division' has just been sent. After leaving 'Lin'an', this group of people parted ways."

"Two people went to the southwest, and the rest went north. They should be returning to the Kingdom of Jin. They broke into the palace last night and left behind a corpse. It was identified as Sha Tongtian, the 'Dragon King of Ghost Gate'. "

"Therefore, we conclude that they are from the King Zhao's Mansion of the Kingdom of Jin. According to the schedule, they will arrive in Jiaxing tomorrow, and they will be able to leave the Song Dynasty as soon as the day after tomorrow."

As the old eunuch said, he took out a secret report from his sleeve and handed it to Guo Mo.

Guo Mo opened the door and looked at it carefully.

"In these news, there is no mention of a one-year-old child. I wonder if there is any other news?"

"A one-year-old child? I haven't heard of it. However, there are only two people and two fast horses going southwest. If there are children, they should take the road of Jiaxing."

Guo Mo felt that the old eunuch's analysis made sense, so he thought of leaving and chased north overnight.

"Mo'er, why be in a hurry, sit down and talk to Daddy for a while."

"Old man, you can go find a six-hundred-mile fast command arrow, and let Mo'er hold it for a while, and just change the fast horse at various post stations along the way."

The old eunuch knew that Emperor Ningzong wanted to send him out, and the father and son had something private to say.

"Daddy, do you have something to say?"

"Mo'er, what is your plan to participate in the 'martial arts' this time?"

Originally, I wanted to ask this question. Since I mentioned it here, Guo Mo also wanted to make a solid deal with Emperor Ningzong. Although the matter cannot be settled overnight, we still have to move forward.

"Father, the current Great Song Dynasty has internal and external troubles, treacherous officials are in power, and the civil and military are out of balance. The Jin Kingdom is invading, and the Great Song Dynasty has billions of dollars in wealth, but it is just a piece of fat in the eyes of others."

"If you want to revive the greatness of Taizu, you can only rejuvenate the country with martial arts and have a powerful army. In fact, there is no shortage of people who can fight and dare to fight in the Song Dynasty. This time, my son just wanted to find a few A person who can take on great responsibilities.”

"Those who are suitable for the army will be incorporated into the elite army, and those who are not suitable for the army will be incorporated into the 'Imperial City Division'."

"Isn't Mongolia now wanting to unite with us to deal with the Kingdom of Jin? You might as well take this opportunity to get some war horses from the Mongols as much as possible, even if you can buy them with money."

"The Jin people also have a lot of cavalry. If we want Song Dynasty to attack the Jin people, we can't let our infantry go up?"

"For the battle against the Kingdom of Jin, training is the main thing. Everything depends on the situation of the Mongols. If the Mongols attack in a hurry, we will take our time. If the Mongols are frustrated, we will take the opportunity to seize the territory south of the Yellow River in the Kingdom of Jin." .”

"Don't be greedy. To seize a state is to stabilize a state, and try to get as many horses as possible from the people of the Jin Kingdom."

"As for the court, let the 'Huangcheng Division' do its best to search for evidence of Shi Miyuan's party's crimes, starting with his party members, and cut them off one by one."

"Look for a target, and create a public opinion in the public first, let Shi Miyuan's political opponents in the court expose it, and Dad will mediate from it."

"Let Shi Miyuan go to 'She Che Baoshuai' last by himself. Once the seat is vacant, Dad will try his best to arrange for his own people to sit on it, even if it is a neutral person."

......

Guo Mo described several scenes of diplomacy and power struggle to Ning Zong. Ning Zong stared blankly at Guo Mo in front of him. How could he feel that his "suggestions" were not on the table, but they seemed to be quite good. use.

"Well, Dad, you should try these tricks first. Don't worry about domestic affairs, but be careful when interacting with the Mongols externally. This is a beast that is more ferocious than the Jin people."

"His Royal Highness, the arrow is ready for you."

At this time, the old eunuch came back, with an extra command arrow in his hand, which he obtained through the normal way, under the banner of "Imperial City Secretary", and would not attract anyone's attention.

"Daddy, my son will leave first. You can think about what you said just now, and your son will come to see you when you have time."

Guo Mo took the command arrow, left the Hall of Funing, and disappeared into the night.

"Everyone, His Royal Highness King Yan has left."

Looking at Emperor Ningzong who was still there in a daze, the old eunuch couldn't help reminding.

"Old man, what kind of person is Xiaoqi?"

Chapter 181 Inside the Iron Spear Temple

Guo Mo left the palace.

At this time the gate of the city was closed, Guo Mo found a place where no one was around, the golden goose soared into the air, flew up to the wall, and then floated down from the wall.

It is less than two hundred miles from Lin'an to Jiaxing.

When he came to the post station outside the city, he got a fast horse with the arrow and headed for Jiaxing.

Jiaxing, in the northeast of Lin'an, was originally Xiuzhou.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, Xiuzhou was changed to Jiahe County, and in the first year of Ningzong Qingyuan in the Southern Song Dynasty, the county was promoted to a government, and later changed to Jiaxing Army.

Guo Mo spared no effort to gallop all the way, changing horses only once at the post station.

In the middle of the night, they arrived outside Jiaxing City, and Guo Mo went to the posthouse outside the city first.

In the Song Dynasty, the Guanyi was completely separated from the correspondence and post, and only performed the duties of an official guest house.

From the outside, it looks like a magnificent temple, a dignified official residence, or a rich man's mansion.

Guo Mo showed the token and registered the words "Huangcheng Division".

The staff on duty, regardless of the irritability of being woken up in the middle of the night, invited Guo Mo into the post with a smile on his face.

Entering Jiaxing City in the middle of the night is meaningless.

Moreover, Jiaxing is so big, it may not be possible to find it by myself.

The point is that this group of people may not go to the city to stay in a hotel in a grand manner.

Guo Mo drank a bowl of hot tea first, the winter moon night was still a bit chilly.

Looking at the servants waiting at the side, Guo Mo suddenly thought of a question and asked.

"Are you a local?"

"If you're going back to work, the younger one is a local family. The ancestors have lived here for generations, and they are very familiar with Fang Yuan."

Welcoming and sending off all day long, the eyes of the staff are naturally bright.

Guo Mo smiled "hehe", took out five taels of silver from his bosom, and threw it to him.

"Where is the Iron Spear Temple in Jiaxing? How far is it from here?"

Guo Mo clearly remembers that the Iron Spear Temple in Jiaxing is also a very important plot tipping point in the world of Double Wither, and it is hard to say that this group of people will really fall there.

"You are really asking the right person, sir. The Iron Spear Temple is just outside Jiaxing City, but not in our direction."

"You always come from 'Lin'an'. You come from the southwest, and the Iron Spear Temple is a little bit northerly. If you want to enter the city, you can only go three miles from the north gate."

"If you don't go into the city, there is also a small road to go around from this place, but it will take an extra ten miles."

It's true that "money can turn ghosts around", the museum attendant explained it in such a detailed way that he wanted to take Guo Mo to see it himself.

"Then how should 'Mandarin Duck Villa' go?"

Guo Mo thought, since he came here, if time permits, he should also go to the master's manor to have a look.

"It's not far away. Come out of the 'Iron Spear Temple' and go west, about five miles away. It used to be the residence of an offender official, but it was bought later and became the current 'Yuanyang Villa' '."

"Hehe, thank you very much, I just asked casually. Go and help me change a good horse, I have to go on my way soon."
