Chapter 2628: Fighting wits!

The city of Taiyuan in the Tang Dynasty was built on the basis of the ancient

city of Jinyang. Although its scale is not as large as that of Chang'an City,

its structure is more complicated than that of Chang'an City, with 27 gates

alone!

According to legend, the ancient city of Jinyang was built by Dong Anyu in the

Spring and Autumn Period. The "Historical Records" said: "The third edition of

Zhibo attacked Zhao Xiangzi in Jinyang and drew Fen water to the city. The

city is not flooded in the third edition". Emperor Wenxuan of the Northern Qi

Dynasty built the Daming Palace on the site of the ancient city of Jinyang

built by Dong Anyu, and later expanded it into a city called Daming City. The

height of the city is 4 feet high, 4 li every week. There is another city to

the north of Daming City. Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty set up

Jinyang Palace here because it was considered a city.

It was renamed Xincheng during Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Yang of

the Sui Dynasty expanded the Jinyang Palace of Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern

Wei Dynasty, and the city was also enlarged. The enlarged new city was 4 feet

high and 7 li in weeks. In the 16th year of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty,

there was also a warehouse city, which was connected to the new city to the

east. This city was 4 feet high and 8 li in the week, thus forming three chain

cities.

This was the original appearance of Taiyuan City in the Tang Dynasty. However,

during the Tang Dynasty, Taiyuan City experienced two large-scale expansions.

The first was during the Zhenguan period. Tang Taizong used the famous general

Li Zhili as the guardian of the governor of Bingzhou. Taiyuan. During this

period, Li Zuli built the East City on the east bank of the Fen River in the

eleventh year of Zhenguan;

The second was during the Wu Zetian period, when the governor Shi Cui Shenqing

crossed Fen to build the middle city, connecting the east and the west. One

body has become the most important military barrier in the north of Datang.

However, at this time, Taiyuan City did not have the words West, East, and

Midtown. The main body of Taiyuan City now is the west city of Taiyuan City.

The city can be divided into Taiyuan Fucheng and Jinyang County. Among them,

Taiyuan Fucheng, also known as Zhoucheng, is the core area of Taiyuan City.

The Zhoucheng contains three cities, namely Daming City, Xincheng and

Cangcheng; while Jinyang County Town, the former Sui Jinyang county seat, is

located on the second south side of Fucheng. Inside.

"Yo~! Are you boss Zhu Xie?"

Taiyuan Fucheng Daming City, Shifang, Chuji Ironware Shop, a middle-aged man

wearing a Chinese dress and a slightly fat body walked in. The little servant

in the shop greeted him. At first glance, the middle-aged man felt familiar.

After looking carefully for a while, he recognized the identity of the middle-

aged man and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Well! Is your shopkeeper here today? I'm here to find him!"

The middle-aged man nodded and asked the young man.

He speaks Chinese. Although he is relatively fluent, he always sounds a bit

blunt.

The young man nodded quickly and said: "I am here! The shopkeeper is in the

back hall. Boss Zhu Xie sits for a while, and the younger one is going to

report!"

"Ok!"

The middle-aged man nodded, and the young man turned and left.

After waiting for about half a cup of tea, Xiao Si walked out from the back

hall and enthusiastically said to the middle-aged man: "Boss Zhu Xie, my

shopkeeper invites you to the back hall for tea! Please here~!"

After all, Xiao Si made an inviting gesture.

The middle-aged man nodded and stood up and said, "That's good! You can lead

the way!"

"Boss Zhu Xie wait a minute!"

Xiao Si suddenly said another sentence, and then he walked quickly to the door

of the shop, and first looked around, then he actually hung a closed sign at

the door, and then closed the door of the shop!

You know, it's broad daylight, and it's not midday. The shops in the market

are basically just opened soon!

"Boss Zhu Xie, please!"

After doing all this, Xiao Si came to the middle-aged man and said.

The middle-aged man glanced at the young man approvingly, and said, "Okay!"

The two walked towards the back hall one after the other.

Outside the iron shop.

"General, not long after Zhu Hongsheng went in, this iron shop closed. Now

it's only two quarters, most of the shops in the city have just opened. They

must have ghosts!"

A well-dressed man hugged his fist to Dugu Feiying.

It turned out that the middle-aged man who entered the iron shop was Zhu

Hongsheng, a businessman who was being followed by Dugu Feiying and others.

The moment Zhu Hongsheng stepped into the iron shop, he entered the

surveillance range of Dugu Feiying and others.

"Hmm! Did you hear what they said in the shop?"

Dugu Feiying's heart moved and asked.

The sergeant clasped his fists and replied: "Back to the general, I was

waiting outside the house to vaguely heard that the young man in the shop

called Zhu Hongsheng the owner of Zhu Xie, and then the young man came and

closed the door. Zhu Hongsheng’s real name should be called Zhu Xie!"

Hearing this, Dugu Feiying looked at the surrounding environment and frowned.

He originally wanted to fly to the roof with a light effort to eavesdrop on

Zhu Hongsheng’s conversation with the people inside, but now it’s broad

daylight and the market is just opening. With the passing of pedestrians and

business guests like clouds, how could he fly to other people's roofs to

eavesdrop in this broad daylight and in full view?

"No! His name is not Zhu Xie, but Zhu Xie!"

With a helpless sigh, Dugu Feiying opened his mouth and said: "The Western

Turks have individual tribes called the Shatuo tribe. The Shatuo tribe is

divided into the Zhu Xie tribe and the advance branch. All members of the clan

are surnamed Zhu Xie, so it seems that this Zhu Hongsheng belongs to the

Shatuo tribe of the Western Turks! But why did the Shatuo tribe suddenly

appear in Taiyuan? And they are also disguised and sneaky?"

Sha Tuo, the Sha Tuo clan at this time is not very famous, many people in the

Central Plains have not heard of it, that is to say, Dugu Feiying was born in

a general, and they knew this! 'Shatuo' is a multi-ethnic mixture. Its ethnic

origin includes three main ethnic components: Turk, Huihe, and Sogdian (namely

the nine surnames of Zhaowu). Each ethnic group includes several tribes, which

can be regarded as a member comparison. Complex ethnic tribes.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the Shatuo was an unobtrusive tribe.

There are very few records of them in the Tang Dynasty literature. The Shatuo

really rose at the end of the Tang Dynasty. The Shatuo people rose rapidly

from the late Tang Dynasty to the Daibei, and once became The most powerful

nation in Chinese history: suppressing the Huangchao Uprising, contending for

hegemony in the Central Plains, dominating the Tang Dynasty, and finally

established three successive dynasties in the Central Plains, the Later Tang,

Later Jin, and Later Han dynasties. The history books of the descendants have

countless deeds of them.

"In that case, Zhu Hongsheng must be a Turkic native? General, do you want to

subordinate and arrest him?"

Upon hearing this, the sergeant raised a fist to Dugu Feiying and suggested.

"If you arrest someone just by this, I'm afraid it will cause us trouble!

Before arresting someone, you must find out the person's background and the

purpose of coming to Taiyuan City!"

Dugu Feiying shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Go check this ironware shop and check what the shop is mainly selling? Who is

the shopkeeper? After checking it out, report it to me immediately! Also, keep

an eye on this Zhu Hongsheng, where he went and who he met, I want to know!"

"Yes! General!"

The sergeant clasped his fists to take the command

Seeing that there was nothing to gain here, Dugu Feiying turned back to the

inn.

After returning to the inn room, Zhang Dafu walked in and clasped his fist to

Dugu Feiying: "General, his subordinates just asked the inn's second general

Zhu Hongsheng to lead his accomplices out of the guest room, and then took the

opportunity to sneak into the Tianzhao room and looked at Zhu Hongsheng's

luggage. Except for some changes of clothes and money, no abnormalities were

found!"

Hearing this, Dugu Feiying suddenly became a little confused, and he didn't

believe it: "Don't you see any account books?"

Zhang Dafu scratched his head and said, "Uh, this, I saw a few pamphlets, but

the subordinates and others are not very literate, and they can't understand

what is written on them! The subordinates wanted to bring a booklet. I came

out, but worried that Zhu Hongsheng would find something abnormal when he came

back, so he didn't take it..."

"……you!"

Dugu Feiying immediately held his forehead with his hands and almost scolded

his mother. This is really not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates

like pigs!

Upon seeing this, Zhang Dafu couldn't help shrinking his neck, and then he

tentatively asked: "Would you like to go there again?"

"Where to go? Zhu Hongsheng will be back in a while. If you go to steal the

account book now, you will definitely be hit!"

Dugu Feiying waved his hand irritably and said.

Duguxin handed him the task of eliminating the hidden dangers of Taiyuan City,

and until now, he has basically achieved nothing, and of course he will

inevitably have irritability.

Zhang Dafu thought for a while, clasped his fist and suggested: "General, or

else his subordinates would directly arrest Zhu Hongsheng for questioning.

Compared with the safety of His Royal Highness King Wei and others, even if we

catch the wrong person, it doesn't matter. ?"

"No!"

Dugu Fei condensed his eyebrows for a moment, and shook his head: "Compared

with the safety of King Wei and the others, a little Zhu Hongsheng is of

course irrelevant, but in case he is really an ordinary businessman, then we

may be horrified by this move. Let the Turkic spies who are really ill-

intentioned be vigilant. By then, it will be even more difficult to catch

them!"

After listening, Zhang Dafu clasped his fist and said, "The general is

reasonable, what should we do now? Your Highness, they should be in the city

this evening!"

Dugu Feiying stood with his hand in his hand, and walked in the room, thinking

about countermeasures, using his brain is not what he is good

at~www.mtlnovel.com~ He is only good at fighting and making funny things, and

the current situation is complicated. , Wanting to find a good strategy to

break the situation, for him, it is simply not too "brain-burning"!

"Zhu Hongsheng cannot relax his surveillance. Today, he went to the Chuji

Ironware Shop in Daming City Square. You have to find out what happened to him

there as soon as possible. In addition, I asked you to send someone to look up

the past few days. What new faces have come in Taiyuan City, can there be

progress?"

After a long period of thought, Dugu Feiying turned to look at Zhang Dafu and

asked.

Zhang Dafu shook his head and said, "Brothers have already been sent out. I'm

afraid there will be no news until noon!"

Dugu Feiying said: "Then wait first! Follow these two directions and hurry up

to investigate. If you can't find any useful clues three quarters before the

time, then find an opportunity to secretly secret Zhu Hongsheng and his party.

Grab it! So far, this Zhu Hongsheng is indeed suspicious!"

This is also a helpless move. According to Dugu Feiying’s original idea, he

will arrest Zhu Hongsheng after he has enough evidence. But time is not

waiting. Li Tai and others will arrive in Taiyuan City and live in the same

city before dark. Fu Inn, Dugu Feiying couldn't let Zhu Hongsheng's uncertain

factor stay by Li Tai's side.

In any case, judging from the clues currently available, there are indeed many

suspicious things in Zhu Hongsheng!

"Finally will follow the order!"

Zhang Dafu's expression was shocked, and he quickly gave his orders.

Seeing that Dugu Feiying had no other orders, Zhang Dafu clasped his fists,

turned and left.

In the room, Dugu Feiying rubbed his eyebrows and muttered to himself: "I hope

this decision is right, otherwise it will be in trouble..."
