Li Chuwen said incredulously, "Is there still such a use for my Daliao officials? It's also a matter of state, and this is the only use my Daliao officials have left. .1kanshu"

Li Chuneng said greedily, "Brother, this state of affairs is beyond our control. Let's take this opportunity to get as much as we can."

Li Chuwen's greed was evident: "Okay, brother, I know."

A few days later, Li Chuwen sent someone to inform Liang Xing that Wang Xiu and Fan Wen were about to serve as governors of Enzhou and Huizhou under Dading Prefecture in Zhongjing.

Liang Xing cupped his fists at Wang Xiu and Fan Wen and said, "I would like to congratulate both gentlemen on their promotion. Enzhou and Huizhou are both in the north of Dading Prefecture, and they are both close to each other not far from Dading Prefecture. You two can help each other quickly stabilize the situation."

Wang Xiu waved his hand and said, "What is there to congratulate? As far as I know, the Han officials in Liao do not have much real power."

Liang Xing said, "In any case, the two gentlemen are also people with official status. In order for the two gentlemen to show their talents in office, a certain person specially prepared two thousand taels of gold for the two gentlemen, one thousand taels for each, and two thousand taels for the two gentlemen." You can take it with you when you go to work, and when you arrive at the place, whether it is a Khitan official or other colleague, the two gentlemen can quickly make friends with each other."

Fan Wen cupped his fists and replied, "Then the two of us will thank Brother Liang for his kindness."

Liang Xing nodded and said, "You two gentlemen, please go and prepare for your appointment. We will soon bring Narcissus Residence to the state capital where you two are located."

Wang Xiu and Fan Wen went to prepare for their duties. Liang Xing quickly wrote a secret letter to inform Li Xin of the incident and asked Li Xin for more manpower.

A few days later, Liang Xing received a reply from Li Xin. Li Xin agreed to Liang Xing's request and would send another batch of manpower to Liang Xing. After receiving the imperial edict a few days later, Wang Xiu and Fan Wen packed their bags and prepared to go to Enzhou and Huizhou to take up their posts.

Liang Xing clasped his fists and said, "You two gentlemen are here to take on a big responsibility. You must pay attention to your own safety and don't act recklessly. Shuixianju will open in Enzhou and Huizhou after March. I wish you both a safe journey."

The two of them said in unison, "I would like to thank Brother Liang here. We will pay attention to our own safety. We are waiting for Brother Liang at any time in Enzhou and Huizhou."

After sending Wang Xiu and Fan Wen away, Liang Xing continued to focus on his great cause of tunnel excavation. The tunnel would be dug in a few days. Ten days later, the tunnel was finally dug. After receiving the letter, Liang Xing and a few people entered the tunnel at the end of the day to check. They walked through the tunnel to the end and lifted the lid above their heads. Liang Xing exposed his head and looked around. At this time, the sky It was already dark, and there were no people around. Liang Xing and others got out of the tunnel and looked around. They found that the exit of the tunnel was a garden, which should be the garden of the imperial city. Liang Xing and others carefully walked around in the garden. No one was found, so everyone continued to explore. During the exploration, they captured three eunuchs, and one of them was injured.

Liang Xing handed the knife to the two uninjured eunuchs and whispered, "If you two want to survive, kill the injured man."

The two eunuchs trembled while holding knives and said, "Sir, please spare the little one. I don't dare."

Liang Xing said ferociously, "If you don't dare, then you two just want to die."

In the end, the two eunuchs couldn't help but stab the injured eunuch to death with their eyes closed under Liang Xing's coercion.

Liang Xing said with satisfaction, "That's right. From now on, we will be a team. Follow me from now on, and I will not treat you badly." After saying that, Liang Xing gave the two eunuchs ten taels of silver each.

The two eunuchs trembled and took the money and said, "Thank you, sir. We will do a good job."

Liang Xing asked, "What are your names?"

The two eunuchs replied, "Xiao Dezi, Xiao Shunzi."

Liang Xing continued, "Xiao Dezi, Xiao Shunzi, you two have to pretend that nothing is wrong and go back. From now on, you two will be someone's insiders in the palace. If you want to survive, what happened today cannot be leaked. In the future, someone Each of you will be given a salary of ten taels of silver every month."

The two eunuchs nodded and said, "I understand, I will thank you for the reward."

Liang Xing continued, "The first task you two will do after you return is to give me a map of the imperial city. Whether you draw it or steal it, it's up to you. After finishing the map, go to the garden. I will take you to the tunnel now." .”

After speaking, Liang Xing and others cleaned up the scene, carried the body, and took Xiao Shunzi and Xiao Dezi to the entrance of the garden tunnel.

Liang Xing pointed to the entrance of the tunnel and said, "After the map is compiled, open the entrance of the tunnel and throw it into the tunnel. Someone will come to pick it up. From now on, at the end of the th hour of every month, someone will come to the entrance of the tunnel. You must put it in the tunnel." The news heard in the palace told me that just one person can report it."

The two eunuchs nodded and said, "Yes, sir, I understand."

Liang Xing continued, "If the emperor comes, you must find out where the emperor's daughters live, especially where the emperor's eldest princess Yelu Yuliyan lives in the imperial city. Once you have found out, throw one of your belongings into the tunnel." ."

The two eunuchs replied, "Yes, sir, I understand."

Liang Xing waved his hand, "Okay, you go back, remember not to let anyone find out, and go back normally."

The two eunuchs left, and Liang Xing and others carried the body back through the tunnel. After returning to the mansion, Liang Xing ordered people to dispose of the body and met Qinglian who was returning to the mansion.

Liang Xing asked, "Why did Miss Qinglian come back today?"

Qinglian replied, "There are a few chefs in the restaurant watching. The Nu family will come back to see Han Xing when they have free time. It seems that Lang Jun killed someone today. He smells of blood."

Liang Xing replied, "The tunnel was dug today. A certain person led a few people into the imperial city, bribed two eunuchs, and killed one eunuch."

Qinglian nodded and said, "Well, Han Xing is doing well lately. The Nu family has been busy in the restaurant recently and hasn't come back to see the child much."

Liang Xing nodded and said, "It's good for this child to follow the maid. Miss Qinglian will find out soon. Miss Qinglian will have New Year's Day soon. This is our first New Year's Day outside. I don't know Qinglian." How is the girl going to live?"

Qinglian nodded and said, "Yes, this is the first New Year's Day for the slave family away from home. I wonder what your husband has in mind?"

Liang Xing thought for a while and said, "Let's spend New Year's Day at Narcissus Residence. Get everyone together to make Narcissus Residence more festive."

Miss Qinglian nodded and said, "Then let's do it. Sir, go get ready. The slave family is going to see the child."

Qinglian went to see her child, and Liang Xing greeted everyone to prepare for the festival. On New Year's Day, Liang Xing also planned to give red envelopes worth a lot of money to everyone, including beggars and gangsters.

Just as Liang Xing and others were preparing to celebrate New Year's Day in Daliao, Li Xin was also preparing to celebrate the New Year. After this New Year's Day, it will be the year of Chonghe. This year will be important for Li Xin's career. year.
