Chapter 244 Follow the clues
Zhang Xuan also knew that it was not easy to find Li Zitong. Not only were there too many people coming to Luoyang to participate in the imperial examination and heroes' meeting, but Li Zitong's identity was special, so his hiding place must be very secretive, and he would definitely use a pseudonym. Even those Luoyang Baishitong may not be found. He must find it through people who know Li Zitong very well.●⌒,.
Zhang Xuan whispered to Pei Xingyan: "The problem we have now is that we have insufficient staff, especially because there are too few people familiar with Luoyang. I want your brother to help."
"Is Xingjian in Luoyang?" Pei Xingyan asked in surprise.
"Here! I saw him last night, right in your Pei Mansion. He has many people under him. Please help find someone, and find Pei Xin again to see if he can find Li Zitong's residence through official channels."
Pei Xingyan nodded, "I understand, I will go to find my brother now. If you have any news, I will tell the general tonight."
"Be careful and remember not to act without permission!"
"Abide by the order!"
Pei Xingyan turned his horse's head and ran towards Pei's mansion. Zhang Xuan then took Yuchi Gong to the Yan's mansion.
In front of the steps of the Yan Prince's Mansion, Yuchi Gong whispered to Zhang Xuan: "General, it may be useless to find the official. How could they know where the Li Zitong bandits are hiding?"
"Try to try as much as possible! They are not official, they are local snakes in Luoyang, and the news is quite extensive."
In fact, Zhang Xuan doesn’t have many ways, so he can only use the method of planting and harvesting in a wide range of ways, try to find more friends and more relationships, and ask about Li Zitong’s residence from all levels.
After a moment, Han Xin quickly walked out of the palace and bowed and smiled, "Brothers are all asking if I will come to Luoyang to attend the Heroes Club. It seems that I am right, and it's true."
Zhang Xuan also smiled and said, "Brother Han is still in style, it seems he has been promoted again. How are you, brothers?"
"What kind of official position can you be promoted? You'll just have a good time. Everyone is good. Lao Xin and Nian Er went to work in the local area, which is enviable. However, the best brothers in our group are brothers. I heard that they are going to be promoted to the general of Hu Ben, so I have to treat you!"
"I will definitely treat you when I get promoted. Come! Let me introduce to my brother Han, this is also my brother. Yuchi Gong is a powerful general of our Flying Eagle Army."
Zhang Xuan said to Yuchi Gong again: "This is my former brother, General Han's nephew, and his name is Han Xin."
Yuchi Gong bowed to Han Xin, and Han Xin had long seen Yuchi Gong's majestic figure. He really envied him. He quickly smiled and greeted him.
At this time, Zhang Xuan pulled Han Xin aside and whispered: "I have something to bother Brother Han!"
Han Xin patted his chest, "You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you."
"That's right, someone stole my brother's war horse, and this person was Li Zitong, the leader of the East China Sea. I wanted to find this person. But I don't know where to find it?"
Han Xin was surprised that Li Zitong actually dared to come to Luoyang. He was too brave. He thought for a while and said, "Let's do this! I'll ask my brothers to find a way to inquire. If there is any news, I will notify me, where do you live?"
Zhang Xuan gave him an address and smiled and said, "Please Brother Han!"
"I'll go and arrange it. Is there anything else to do with me?"
Zhang Xuan had another thing to ask him, and asked with a smile: "Is Chai Shao back?"
Han Xin was not interested in Chai Shao and said lightly: "He is no longer a guard at the King of Yan. He said he was going home to take care of his grandfather, so he resigned two months ago. We don't know his whereabouts. If my brother wants to find him, he can go to his father-in-law's house to inquire."
"I understand, thank you Brother Han!"
"I'll go and arrange to find someone. I will notify me in time if there is any news."
Han Xin bowed to Yuchi Gong again and hurried into the mansion.
Zhang Xuan shook his head and smiled bitterly at Yuchi Gong, "It seems that you are right, there is no hope here."
"Why does the general feel this way?"
"Don't you think there is something hidden under his enthusiasm?"
Yuchi Gong thought for a while, "He should ask the general to come into the mansion and reminisce about the past."
"You can also see that he is actually perfunctory to me. He has enthusiasm, but he has no sincerity."
"Why is this? The general is doing well. He should make friends with the general well. I don't understand it."
Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. Some things were hard to say, but he knew in his heart that Han Xin was just a mirror that reflected the attitude of King Yan towards him. Yang Xuan had already understood his coldness towards him. Zhang Xuan had almost never seen Yang Xuan since the Battle of Goguryeo. This was actually Yang Xuan's deliberate avoidance of himself.
Pei Ju did not lie to him. He warned himself to be careful of the King of Yan for a certain reason. The King of Yan must have said something to him.
In fact, Zhang Xuan also considered the reason why Yang Lei was cold and he was also indifferent to him. The biggest possibility was that Yang Lei was gradually mature, and he began to resist and even disgust him instill some ideas in him.
For example, compromise ideas, using a gentle and long-term way to gradually weaken the power of the aristocratic families and Guanlong nobles, rather than Yang Guang's radical approach. It seems that Yang Neng is increasingly influenced by his grandfather, so it is normal for him to be disgusted and resist him.
"General, are we going to Li's Mansion now?"
Yuchi Gong's question interrupted Zhang Xuan's thoughts. He smiled and said, "Go and try it out with people from the Wagang Department! They may have connections with Li Zitong."
Zhang Xuan temporarily put down his thoughts about Yang Qing and urged his horse to run towards Xiuwenfang. He knew there was another place to find Chai Shao.
As Zhang Xuan expected, he found Chai Shao in Wuchuan Prefecture. Although Chai Shao had resigned from his position as the guard of the King of Yan, he might not have resigned from his position as a doctor of the Wuchuan Prefecture. Zhang Xuan and Yuchi Gong waited outside the gate for only a moment, and Chai Shao walked out quickly.
"Brother, we're meeting again so soon!"
Chai Shao walked up with a smile, smiling reluctantly. After all, it was not normal for Zhang Xuan to find something in Wuchuan Mansion and opened his bottom line.
"Is there anything wrong with me, brother?"
Zhang Xuan pointed to a small wine shop in the distance and smiled and said, "This is not a place for talking. I'll invite Brother Sichang to have a glass of water and wine."
Chai Shao nodded and followed Zhang Xuan to the small winery. The two sat down in the inner room. Yuchi Gong sat at the door and ordered a pot of wine and a plate of mutton. While drinking, he was watching the movements around him vigilantly.
In the room, Zhang Xuan made his own request to Chai Shao, and he wanted to find Li Zitong through the relationship between Wagang Army.
Chai Shao was really embarrassed. He definitely didn't want Zhang Xuan to have too deep relationships with the Wagang Army, as that would reveal Li Jiancheng's true identity. So when they met Zhang Xuan in the restaurant on the road, Chai Shao asked someone to call Xu Shiji and Cheng Yaojin back, not allowing them to communicate too much with Zhang Xuan.
After pondering for a moment, Chai Shao smiled and said, "It's just a horse. There's no need to go through so much trouble. I also have a good horse over there. I'll give it to my brother!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head, "It's not a horse's problem. Even if Li Zitong doesn't know me, he should know Qin Qiong or Luo Shixin. He knows that we are the Flying Eagle Army and still wants to steal the horse. This is a kind of provocation. I have always resolutely fight back and never compromise."
Chai Shao sighed, "But we don't know where Li Zitong's residence is!"
"Brother Sichang may not know, but Xu Shiji or Shan Xiongxin should know, or they have a way to know."
Chai Shao's face changed, "This is not right!"
Zhang Xuan's face suddenly sank, "Since that's the case, I'll go find Yuanmin to help, and talk to him about this story of Li Mi not Li Mi, and say goodbye!"
Zhang Xuan got up and left. Chai Shao was anxious and quickly stopped him, "Okay! OK! I'll just agree."
Zhang Xuan sat down again, smiled faintly, waiting for Chai Shao to express further. Chai Shao felt very hatred, but he had no choice but to say coldly: "Guiyi Fang Fulai Inn, you can find them."
After saying that, Chai Shao stood up and said, "There is nothing else, I will say goodbye first!"
He turned around and walked out of the house, but after walking a few steps, Zhang Xuan said calmly: "I would like to see Mr. Li raise his troops on the day of the rebellion in Taiyuan, so I have been hiding that secret for Mr. Li. I will not reveal it until I have to. Please rest assured that brother, I am not going to worry about my ugly words, but if I have to say something ugly, it is best not to have any thoughts of silence, otherwise it will be a disaster for the entire Li family, and there will be no second Li Hun."
Chai Shao's whole body trembled. He turned around and looked at Zhang Xuan in disbelief, turned around and left in a hurry.
Zhang Xuan looked at him walking away and couldn't help but sigh softly. To this day, his and Chai Shao's faces have been torn off.
