Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Alliance
the same night.
Fugu, Gushan, Baihuawu.
A month ago, under the flowers, a gazebo, and two glasses of wine.
Just four side dishes and a pot of thick soup.
The cup and saucer are secret-color porcelain made by Wuyue Yanzi, and the wine is Liangzhou wine with a very sweet taste.The dishes are tender and golden-yellow roasted lamb bones, sashimi sliced as thin as cicada's wings and white as snow with the big carp of the Yellow River, fresh and delicious three fresh bamboo shoots, plum ginger, and finally It is a pot of Bazhen soup made of fat and tender mutton with lotus root, yam, astragalus, rice wine, simmered and stewed until rotten.
Sitting in the gazebo are two middle-aged men, both wearing comfortable and soft clothes, with ribbons in their hair, looking relaxed and at ease.Lanterns hang high at the four corners of the small pavilion, vaguely reflecting their appearance.A burly body, even sitting on a stone bench, is like a tiger crouching on a dragon's plate.Looking at his face, his face is like a jujube, with two red phoenix eyes slanting into the temples, a pair of lying silkworm eyebrows, and a long chest-length beard, it seems that Guan Yunchang is the reincarnation.The one on the opposite side was slightly shorter than him, with three strands of beard and fair complexion, like a scribe, but when he was staring at him, his expression was dignified, and he also had an intimidating majesty.
These two people, at first glance, are people who hold a lot of power in their hands, and they usually say what they say. It is only through their demeanor that they can develop such a dignified manner over time.Since ancient times, the folk proverb: "Shandong is a prime minister, and Shanxi is a general." These two Shanxi men are indeed majestic generals at first glance.The middle-aged man with a face like a jujube is Zhe Yuxun, the lord of Fuzhou, and the white-faced scholar opposite is Yang Chongxun, the lord of Linzhou.
The food on the table was extremely delicious, but the two of them hardly moved a few chopsticks. Yang Chongxun frowned, and called Zhe Yuxun's words: "Shilong, the official family defeated the Northern Han Dynasty and returned without success, but... ... Before he returned to Bianliang, he began to reward the officials. This time, my Yang family has no power, but I have also received praises. My brother, I was appointed as the governor of Shangzhu Kingdom and Hedong Jiedu. What happened to the official family, But it’s not going well.”
Zhe Yuxun smiled slightly, stroked his beard and said: "Hehe, brother Zhongwen, the officials are even more generous to me Zhe Yuxun, they made me Zheng Guogong, how about it, I am one level higher than you, the second-rank official, When do you think our brothers will take office?"
He is one year younger than Yang Chongxun, so he calls Yang Chongxun his brother.Hearing this, Yang Chongxun suddenly said: "Shilong, what are you talking about? Could it be that you, Yang Chongxun, still don't believe me, and you are playing sloppy with me. Once the two of us leave our roots and become officials in the court, we will be trapped in shallow water." , Hu Luoping Pingyang, a rich man or nothing to worry about, but this ancestral foundation has been lost, and there is no way to get it back. Didn’t I come this time just to discuss a way with you?”
Zhe Yuxun spread his hands, and said helplessly: "The officials led the army back to the division but did not return to the capital. More than a hundred thousand elite soldiers stood in the northwest, and the officials and nobles invited us to come to Beijing to enjoy the blessings. Such a great sincerity '... Hey! If you and I disobey the official's wishes, maybe the official will be gone, even his head will be gone, and the army of your official family will be vegetarian?"
Yang Chongxun frowned, and said: "The official Chen Bing went to the northwest instead of returning to the east. He was obviously trying to intimidate us. I don't believe he dares to use troops against us."
Zhe Yuxun glanced at him, and said with a half-smile: "If you really want to use your troops against us, it may not be impossible. But... the premise is that he has to solve the big troubles in the south first. At this time, He won't really use troops against us. But...the government has issued an order. Do you think we should go? If we don't go, we will resist the order. He can bear the anger for a while, and he will attack us sooner or later. Don't we Can you still vote for the Northern Han Dynasty, which is difficult to protect yourself, or simply surrender the Khitan people, stand on your own, and be an emperor? Hey, I am a descendant of the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei royal family, and I belong to the Hu nationality. Admiring the culture of the Central Plains, you, General Yang, are Han, and your elder brother is Bao’s Northern Han, and if you join the past, you will most likely be reused..."
Yang Chongxun slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Yang has come here by mistake. Well, since I went back to Linzhou, the officials came here with the momentum of Mount Tai. Yang Chongxun is single and alone, he is absolutely invincible, so let's hand over Linzhou and go to Bianliang to be a peace officer. I just don't know if Linzhou is lost, will your prefecture be able to defend it?"
After Yang Chongxun finished speaking, he raised his legs and left, and Zhe Yuxun toasted to himself, ignoring him, until Yang Chongxun was about to walk out of the moon gate in the garden, Zhe Yuxun put down his wine glass and called out loudly: "Brother Zhongwen Stay."
Yang Chongxun suddenly turned around, twitched his eyebrows and said: "Why, is General Zhe going to tie Yang to show his merits to the officials?"
Zhe Yuxun rushed over with a smile on his face, grabbed his shoulders, his majestic appearance disappeared, and he smiled like a rascal: "Haha, Brother Zhongwen is so angry, no wonder, I always want to know you Come on, sit down, sit down, the weather is hot, no wonder you are so angry, come here, give General Yang a cup of sour plum soup, and ask for it to be in the well."
Yang Chongxun couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Shilong, you... well, you have been so cunning since you were a child, but thanks to you, you are still the master of Fugu, the tyrant in the cloud, seeing your lazy appearance, it's really...forget it Forget it, what kind of sour plum soup to drink, I can't eat anything now, tell me quickly, is there any way to politely reject the official without hurting each other's friendship."
Zhe Yuxun pulled him back to sit by the table, he let go of his anger, and said seriously: "Brother Zhongwen is so honest, then Shilong will make it clear. Ten years ago, my father joined the Song Dynasty and entered the court to face the king. At that time, the officials personally promised that my Zhe family would be in charge of Fugu from generation to generation, collect trilogy and pay taxes by myself. It was only ten years of work, my father's bones were not cold, and the officials' words were still in my ears, so I came up with the idea of Fuzhou. Hey! You are willing to be me? But, after all, we are under the eaves of others. Bianliang, let's not go, but this face can't be torn, the court must be willing to let us stay."
Yang Chongxun's eyes flashed, and he said suspiciously: "Shilong, don't be a fool. Let's just say it, how can we make the officials willingly let us stay?"
Zhe Yuxun smiled slightly, and said word by word: "Naturally... Yang, Bandit, Zi, Zhong!"
Yang Chongxun stared and said, "Where did the bandits come from? How many bandits do we have to raise?"
Zhe Yuxun rolled his eyes and said, "You have been dumber than me since you were a child, and you are still dumber than me now."
Yang Chongxun said angrily: "Nonsense, whoever looks like your Zhe family is more treacherous than a ghost, our old Yang family is loyal, how can there be so many cute thoughts, tell me quickly, where is the bandit?"
Zhe Yuxun smiled and pointed to the southwest, Yang Chongxun said in surprise: "Dangxiang people? No... The Seventh Department of the Dangxiang rebelled, and Xiazhou Li Guangrui stood by. It was you who were full and sent troops to break them up. What kind of storms can the remaining few small fish withstand?"
Zhe Yuxun smiled and said: "Brother Zhongwen, let's take a look at the situation in the northwest. To the north and northeast are the Northern Han and Khitan; to the south and southeast is the Song Dynasty; to the west and southwest is the Dingnan Army Festival." Li Guangrui. Although Li Guangrui also surrendered to the Song Dynasty on the surface, he is actually more arrogant and rebellious than you and me, and his power is also the largest among you, me and him. If the imperial court surrenders our military power, the officials The tiger's prestige directly bent down on Li Guangrui's head, do you think... Will he still live as freely as he is now?"
Yang Chongxun said in surprise, "Don't tell me you want...to join forces with Li Guangrui?"
Xiazhou Dingnan Army and Fugu's Yong'an Army have been fighting endlessly for many years in order to compete for territory. Since they surrendered to the Song Dynasty, on the surface they are all ministers of the same palace, so it is not easy to fight openly. Fighting and killing each other in the trilogy is also a common occurrence. It is indeed incredible to say that they, a wolf and a leopard, can become allies.
Zhe Yuxun said with a smile: "The alliance is true, but the alliance is not necessarily. Li Guangrui is also worried that Zhao Kuangyin's tiger tail will be swept up on his ass. We are here to guard, although we look at each other's noses and eyes. It's better to get into a fight, isn't it better than Boss Zhao? If there is no skin, how can hair be attached? Therefore, he is also willing to keep us here, so he will naturally cooperate with us. I have already said People concealed their identities and funded some soldiers, weapons, money, rice and firewood for the Seventh Department of the Party. In the past few days, the Seventh Department of the Party will start fighting again. At that time, as long as Li Guangrui of Xiazhou was sick in bed, he could not send troops. I will pay Yuxun... ..."
He laughed dryly and said: "It's my duty, I am the general, of course I have to send troops, but once the war starts, I will always fight and lose repeatedly, and I will have to drag you out of nowhere." Let’s go into the water, we two brothers had a great time fighting with the Seventh Department of the Party, and devoted ourselves to the court, do you think his Zhao family is ashamed to invite us to Bianliang for tea at such a terrible time?"
Yang Chongxun was overjoyed when he heard it, and said repeatedly: "You have such a good plan, why didn't you say it earlier, it's really nothing to make me worry about it. Ah! Ah..." He pointed at Zhe Yuxun, and suddenly said: "This But the idea of that little witch in your family?"
Zhe Yuxun glared and said: "What is this called? I am a majestic Yong'an Army Jiedu envoy, with an army of 100,000 troops under my command. With one move of the flag, countless heads fall to the ground. Such a majestic commander, still can't think of such a plan?"
Yang Chongxun said with a sneer: "Forget it, your girl is not tall, but she has a long mind. The boys in my family and those in your family are also considered weird, but which one is not instigated by her little aunt?" Turning around, even the two of us, how much have we suffered from her these years? Your sister, hehe, she..."
"Ahem, stop, stop, actually my sister is smart, Bingxue is smart, understand?" Zhe Yuxun corrected righteously.
Yang Chongxun didn't see the look in his hand, and still smiled to himself: "Yes, smart, so smart, smarter than nine vixens tied together. I don't know which big man will dare to marry her in the future, such a powerful woman Baby, who would marry her and not be bullied by her to the point where she can't hold her head up for the rest of her life? Haha, just imagine the unlucky ghost who will marry her in the future, and I'll be so happy, haha, haha, hahaha..."
"Crack!" Someone patted Yang Chongxun's shoulder suddenly, and a crisp and sweet voice sounded behind him: "Brother Yang, my eldest sister is your sister-in-law. Speaking of which, we are real relatives. Tell me behind my back that I'm a girl, if this bad reputation spreads, I really won't be able to get married in the future, how can it be good?"
Yang Chongxun was quick-witted, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. He grinned, suddenly became wise, staggered two steps forward, hugged his stomach, and shouted: "I drank too much wine, I ...I'm a little anxious, it's convenient for me to go, convenient and convenient." After finishing speaking, he walked away without looking back.
Behind him, there appeared a young girl in a green shirt, with a melon-seeded face, big eyes, bright eyes and white teeth, so charming and charming, she was not the big girl Zhezi Yuzhe.Looking at the beauties under the lamp, the color becomes more and more colorful. At this time, Zhe Ziyu is smiling and charming, with a unique charm.
She glanced at the back of Yang Chongxun leaving in embarrassment, wrinkled her nose lightly, sat down at the table, and asked, "Brother, has the matter been settled?"
Zhe Yuxun's majestic and majestic Guan Gong's face changed completely, showing a flattering smile and said: "Little girl is really clever, I sent someone to talk to that Li Guangrui, and the fox understood. But the Seventh Department of the Party They are making trouble, but they cannot be allowed to sit down, otherwise, Li Guangrui will not be able to suppress it, and there will be a lot of wars in my prefecture, and this matter needs to be discussed in detail. By the way, Li Jiyun, Li Guangrui's son, will Come here to discuss this matter with me, you see, do you want to talk to him on behalf of elder brother?"
Zhe Ziyu curled his lips and said, "I don't bother to care about your men's affairs. If I continue to take care of it, I will really be like Yang Chongxun said, and I won't be able to get married."
Zhe Yuxun rubbed his hands, and said with a smile: "How come, my sister, if you want someone with talent, a figure with a figure, a good looks, a family with a family background, can you not get married? If you like Which one would he dare not marry? If you have made him fat, you tell the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will chop off his head."
Zhe Ziyu made a face at him, jumped up and smiled and said, "Whatever you say, I won't stand up for you. You can talk about it yourself. I heard that the sleeping Taoist of Huashan came to Fugu, and now he is resting in the clouds on Luoxia Mountain." Guan Luojiao, tomorrow I will go to Qiyun Temple to call Zhai to escape the heat, meet this living god, and I will come back after ten and a half months when the weather is cooler."
Zhe Yuxun complained: "You girl, you have a smart heart. Daddy valued you the most when he was alive. Now big brother and I stand alone, but you refuse to do something for big brother. You don't need to go to the special envoy of Xiazhou. In the mountains, I have heard of the name of Taoist Sleeper, but do you still want to follow him to cultivate immortality and learn Taoism? I also want you to arrange for the people who moved westward from the imperial court. Their imperial envoy, what is his name, Ding Hao, has already Leading people to the border of our prefecture, there are tens of thousands of people, it is not easy to arrange properly."
Zhe Ziyu had already walked away, but when he heard this, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said with bright eyes, "Ding Hao? You mean Ding Hao?"
Zhe Yuxun patted his forehead and said: "Drink too much, it's not Ding Hao, it's Yang Hao."
Zhe Ziyu was disappointed, he waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, Yang Hao is still a lamb, you are the general of Fuzhou, you can find a way to go, I went to the mountains to escape the summer heat and learn Taoism."
As Zhe Ziyu said, he ran away bouncingly, Zhe Yuxun tilted his head, pouted his mouth, parted his chest-length beard from side to side, his eyebrows twitched, Danfeng narrowed his eyes, and said to himself Authentic: "Is it Ding Hao or Yang Hao? Hey... I really drank too much and I can't remember..."
After Cheng Shixiong returned to Guangyuan, he sent someone to send him a military report, which mentioned the current situation of Ding Hao who he wanted to reuse, and also mentioned that he changed his name to Yang Hao now.But at the same time as Cheng Shixiong's memorial arrived, the imperial court promoted him to an official position and asked him to go to Beijing to "enjoy good fortune". Zhe Yuxun didn't know what his sister was thinking, so he regarded Yang Hao as an ordinary person. Thinking about how to refuse to go to Beijing, how can I remember whether that person's surname is Yang or Ding.
If Li Yuchang hadn't rushed to Fuzhou this morning and told him that the imperial envoy led the Northern Han immigrants to his territory, he would never have thought of this person at all.Zhe Yuxun patted his forehead, stopped thinking about the Laoshizi Lamb and Cow, turned his head to the flowers and said, "I said...then who...Brother Zhongwen, sister-in-law has left, you can come out... "
Yang Chongxun sneaked out from behind the flowers, and said with lingering fear: "Mother, why did she hear it, she...she won't do anything to me, will she?"
Zhe Yuxun said: "Don't be afraid, my sister is not as naughty as she was when she was a child. The last time you were teased to death by her, I remember it was five years ago, when she was still a brat Boy, now my sister has grown up, look at her, she is slim, gentle as water, virtuous and dignified, well-educated, she is a lady of great ladylike virtue."
Yang Chongxun was shocked when he heard this, turned around and said, "Little sister Zhe!"
There was no one behind him, so Yang Chongxun turned around, half-believing and saying: "Since she is not here, you are still willing to praise her so much. Come to think of it... I think the little girl has really grown up."
Zhe Yuxun said triumphantly: "That's right, I don't even look at who the younger sister is. Well, let's not talk about this anymore, we have to wait for Li Guangrui to send someone to discuss in detail about the matter of instigating the party's seven ministries to rebel. Now The imperial envoys brought more than 40,000 Northern Han people. The increase in population is a good thing, but if we refuse to enter the court, the officials will not be able to make a living. Sending an official to manage these 40,000 Han people will take root for a long time. That has become a serious problem for our confidantes, and I have to discuss this matter with you."
Yang Chongxun moved his face and said: "It's not impossible. Zhao Guan's family is not a martial artist, he has a deep knowledge."
Zhe Yuxun sneered coldly, and only then did he reveal a bit of decisive cruelty: "So, how to arrange these 40,000 people, how to welcome the imperial envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, you and I... need to have a good discussion. ..."
Yang Chongxun said: "Then, why don't you break them up and place them everywhere?"
Zhe Yuxun said: "I have a large area in the northwest and few people. Most of the people live in cottage fortresses according to their ethnic groups. They are not comparable to the city of the Central Plains. Where do you want me to arrange? Where do you want to randomly insert hundreds of thousands of people with foreign surnames? How can they be willing?" Willing? If you break it down into more detail, what year and month do you want me to arrange for?"
Yang Chongxun said: "Then what do you want to do?"
Zhe Yuxun narrowed Danfeng's eyes, and said with a smile: "Look, if I arrange them to Luheling...how about it?"
Yang Chongxun was taken aback: "What? This also... makes it?"
Zhe Yuxun curled his mouth and long beard like Guan Yunchang, and said hesitantly: "Li Guangrui from Yinzhou, Yang Chongxun from Linzhou, and I are all ministers of the Song Dynasty. What's the matter, the immigrants sent by the officials of the Song Dynasty are only Let me settle down alone? That piece of land has thousands of miles of fertile soil, beautiful grass and clear water, but because it is the land where you, me, and his three families border each other, it has become a place of no concern. The great plain was left in vain. I put them there. What's wrong with using waste?"
Yang Chongxun was stunned for a while, then raised his thumb and said, "Your insidiousness really has a bit of the demeanor of my uncle in the past."
Zhe Yuxun cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I'm ashamed, I'm so sorry!"
After getting up early the next morning to wash up, Yang Hao was taken into the living room, and Mu Ke and the two old village owners warmly welcomed him.This time it was a small banquet, and only Yang Hao was invited.Yang Hao looked at the table and saw that wine was served again early in the morning, he couldn't help but be terrified, and hastily declined repeatedly.Seeing that he insisted on refusing to drink, the two old village owners didn't force him anymore, fortunately this was not the time when he just entered the village. The two old guys were addicted to alcohol, and if Yang Hao didn't drink, they would drink for themselves and enjoy themselves.Yang Hao glanced around, and saw that Tang Yanyan was not there, she was very familiar with the Mu Ke family, and Mrs. Ke Shao's wife Mu Qingxuan was also present, but Tang Yanyan was not there, so he was a little surprised. Seeing him looking around wildly, Mu Qingxuan knew he was looking for Tang Yanyan, so he suppressed a smile and said, "Xiaomei Tang said she was not feeling well, so I asked someone to bring food to the room, so I didn't come out." Mu Qingxuan was quite curious. Tang Yanyan came back last night with a strange expression of anger and joy on his face.Asking her something but not answering, that shy look is unprecedented.She and Tang Yanyan have a close friendship. Although they have been together for a long time, it is also because they have similar temperaments, and they both have a straightforward temperament like a man.But looking at her now, she looked like she was worrying about gains and losses in the few days before the wedding. Mu Qingxuan didn't know what happened between the two of them, and guessed that they had done some overly affectionate actions.Looking at Yang Hao again at this moment, one can't help feeling a bit overestimating his brother-in-law. Looking carefully, this man is handsome, his conversation is pleasant, and he is an official, so he is worthy of a sister, so I don't feel it Some like it. Yang Hao's face was hot when someone saw through his mind, and being looked up and down by her sharp eyes made him feel even more guilty, so he hurriedly agreed and bowed his head to eat.On the side, Ke Zhen'e saw that his wife was always staring at the imperial envoy, and he felt a little apprehensive.But he has always been afraid of his wife, and his father and mother, father-in-law and mother-in-law are all there, but he dare not fart. As soon as Yang Hao moved his chopsticks, his shoulders hurt a little, but that pain was different from the numb heavy feeling yesterday. The golden sore medicine was very effective, and Yang Hao could feel that his wound was getting better little by little.Thinking of Tang Yanyan's cute appearance after Ye Zhixuan left last night, not even daring to say a word, and limping away with a still numb leg, he couldn't help feeling a warm current in his heart. Being cared and cared for is always the most irresistible thing for Yang Hao.From childhood to adulthood, what he lacks the most is family affection and friendship, so he also attaches great importance to and cherishes affection.Tang Yanyan's gentle knife had quietly carved a mark on his heart. After the meal, Master Mu Laozhai said: "Yang Qinchao, the old man has sent someone to report to the Red Army Lord who is stationed here. The Red Army Lord will come to see you when he hears the news. Now, the old man is accompanying the imperial envoy. Would you like to go hunting in the back mountain, my lord? It would be nice to go with the game you hunted with your own hands." Yang Hao hurriedly said: "Thank you for the kindness of the old village master Mu. Yang Hao is injured, and it is really inconvenient to travel around the mountain. Besides, he is really tired from the journey. Yang wants to go back to his room to rest, and then go outside the village to visit those people. people." Village Master Mu said with a chuckle: "The old man is a rough man, and he forgot that the envoy Yang Qin was injured. Well, anyway, this barren mountain and wild ridge is really not a sight to behold, so... then invite envoy Yang Qin to go back. Rest. Turn around and accompany the imperial envoy to visit the villagers of the Northern Han Dynasty." Yang Hao's residence was originally adjacent to the residence of the old village master Mu, they went back side by side, and asked someone to bring tea to Yang Hao's room, and chatted with Yang Hao for a while, the two old village masters were about to get up and leave There was a scream: "My eagle, ah ah..." The child hadn't yet reached the stage of voice change, and when he yelled, his voice was shrill and sharp, which made Yang Hao and the two village owners startled. I only heard the child shout: "You bastard tortoise, I said why the eagle I raised disappeared, but you caught it, and... and... and plucked it into a bald eagle, little one!" Grandpa is going to kill you, ahhh..." Immediately there was Ye Dashao's panicky cry: "Help, my lord imperial envoy, Bisu, you bastard watching the fun, I will lose money, please forgive me..." Yang Hao and the two old village owners looked at each other, hurried out the door, and saw Ye Zhixuan running in the yard with a bald chicken in her hand, followed by a child, it was Mu Laozhai Mu Yu, the old lump of the master.The young man was dressed in strong clothes, with a knife pouch on his chest, and a row of willow leaf flying knives with tassels stuck in it. He chased after Ye Zhixuan, and shot a knife from time to time. One hobby is that she likes to fly mysteriously close to people's bodies, which frightens Ye Zhixuan to run around the yard.Because Bi Su's foot was injured, that foot was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and he couldn't use his light-weight kung fu. As soon as Ye Zhixuan circled around him, he hopped to avoid it. The situation of the two of them seemed real. Embarrassed. "Xiao Yu, stop!" Old Master Mu hurriedly stopped when he saw it, and the young man continued to chase after him. Old Master Mu chased after him, stretched out his arms lightly, held his son under his ribs, and slapped him hard on the buttocks. He shouted: "Little brat, do you want to rebel?" Xiao Yu blushed with anger, pointed at Ye Zhixuan and said, "He! You ask him! He stole my eagle and plucked all its feathers. Look, look..." Everyone took a closer look, only to realize that the bald chicken Ye Zhixuan was holding was actually an owl. Its feathers had been pulled out, and it no longer looked like an eagle, only its eyes were vaguely eagle-like. I just don't know if it was picked up by Ye Zhixuan, or because he couldn't bear the sunlight during the day, Yang Hao looked at those two swarthy green eyes and felt that they were getting dizzy... When Ye Zhixuan saw that the runaway child was caught, she said with a sad face, "I... I really didn't know that this owl was actually raised by someone." Yang Hao said helplessly: "Even if you don't know, you...you don't need to pluck out the eagle's feathers, you see, it looks like a bald chicken now, how can you give it back to others?" "I..." Ye Zhixuan was speechless for a moment, how dare he say that he saw the scene of the goddess in his heart and Yang Hao's unbearable scene last night, and vented his anger with this owl in sadness. Mu Yu became even more angry when he heard it, and shouted: "I managed to catch an eagle and raise it to maturity, but you made it look like this, you pay me for the eagle, pay me for the eagle Come." When Yang Hao heard it, he couldn't help but said happily: "Little brother, so you like raising eagles, how about this, I let him catch a real eagle and give it to you, so you don't make things difficult for him anymore, okay?" Mu Yu said disdainfully: "Just rely on him? Young master, I have all my abilities, and I have hunted a few eagles. They were either dead or disabled. What kind of bird is he doing like that? He doesn't have any fists or kicks, but he can still catch them." A real eagle?" Yang Hao laughed and said, "Little brother, you don't have to be skilled in martial arts to catch an eagle. You can't catch an eagle, but this Mr. Ye can catch an intact eagle for you." Mu Yu asked unconvinced: "Do you dare to bet with me?" "Why dare not, how to gamble?" Mu Yu pointed to Young Master Ye and said, "If he can help me catch a real eagle intact, I will recognize you as my eldest brother and sell you all my martial arts skills. If he can't catch the eagle ,hey-hey!" He stared at Ye Zhixuan's hair and said bitterly: "I want to pluck all the hair off his body, and make him look like an eagle like me." Yang Hao said without any hesitation when he heard this, "Success, we've made a deal." Ye Zhixuan couldn't stop her, and thought to herself: "What kind of bet is this? If you win, he will be your younger brother. If you lose, I will suffer, and Yang Qin will almost never suffer a loss if you co-operate with you?" Mr. Mu's sons are all serving in the army. This Yang Hao is an imperial envoy. He must have a bright future. After following him, this precious young son may have a better future than his elder brothers. Therefore, Mr. Mu Hearing the bet between the two, they didn't stop them at all with an attitude of being happy to see it happen, and let their son go. Mu Yu immediately stepped forward and said to Yang Hao, "Come on, let's make an oath of high-five. You are an adult and an imperial envoy. After three high-fives, you will never regret it." Yang Hao smiled secretly: "This Mu Yu is a child after all. Even if Young Master Ye really can't catch an eagle, he will buy one if he buys it. How could he let you rip off his hair? This little guy is full of martial arts, and even more so. What is rare is that once he is hired, Mu Kezhai will be his backer. The other sons of Mu Laozhai's master are also officers in the Zhefu, so his network will be further extended. This deal is not bad at all." So he stretched out his hand without hesitation, and "slapped" him with three high-fives. This kid has a lot of strength, with three palm strikes, Yang Hao's shoulder was hurt, and it hurt immediately, but he didn't want to make this boy look down upon, so he didn't frown. Seeing him not far away, Bi Su couldn't help but said, "Huh? Yang Hao was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and he was seriously injured. How did he recover so quickly?" Young Master Ye hugged the bald-tailed hawk, feeling sour in his heart, and said in a strange way: "It's no wonder that he is unhappy, medicine is not as good as food, and food is not as good as yin and yang..."
After getting up early the next morning to wash up, Yang Hao was taken into the living room, and Mu Ke and the two old village owners warmly welcomed him.This time it was a small banquet, and only Yang Hao was invited.Yang Hao looked at the table and saw that wine was served again early in the morning, he couldn't help but be terrified, and hastily declined repeatedly.Seeing that he insisted on refusing to drink, the two old village owners didn't force him anymore, fortunately this was not the time when he just entered the village. The two old guys were addicted to alcohol, and if Yang Hao didn't drink, they would drink for themselves and enjoy themselves.Yang Hao glanced around, and saw that Tang Yanyan was not there, she was very familiar with the Mu Ke family, and Mrs. Ke Shao's wife Mu Qingxuan was also present, but Tang Yanyan was not there, so he was a little surprised. Seeing him looking around wildly, Mu Qingxuan knew he was looking for Tang Yanyan, so he suppressed a smile and said, "Xiaomei Tang said she was not feeling well, so I asked someone to bring food to the room, so I didn't come out." Mu Qingxuan was quite curious. Tang Yanyan came back last night with a strange expression of anger and joy on his face.Asking her something but not answering, that shy look is unprecedented.She and Tang Yanyan have a close friendship. Although they have been together for a long time, it is also because they have similar temperaments, and they both have a straightforward temperament like a man.But looking at her now, she looked like she was worrying about gains and losses in the few days before the wedding. Mu Qingxuan didn't know what happened between the two of them, and guessed that they had done some overly affectionate actions.Looking at Yang Hao again at this moment, one can't help feeling a bit overestimating his brother-in-law. Looking carefully, this man is handsome, his conversation is pleasant, and he is an official, so he is worthy of a sister, so I don't feel it Some like it. Yang Hao's face was hot when someone saw through his mind, and being looked up and down by her sharp eyes made him feel even more guilty, so he hurriedly agreed and bowed his head to eat.On the side, Ke Zhen'e saw that his wife was always staring at the imperial envoy, and he felt a little apprehensive.But he has always been afraid of his wife, and his father and mother, father-in-law and mother-in-law are all there, but he dare not fart. As soon as Yang Hao moved his chopsticks, his shoulders hurt a little, but that pain was different from the numb heavy feeling yesterday. The golden sore medicine was very effective, and Yang Hao could feel that his wound was getting better little by little.Thinking of Tang Yanyan's cute appearance after Ye Zhixuan left last night, not even daring to say a word, and limping away with a still numb leg, he couldn't help feeling a warm current in his heart. Being cared and cared for is always the most irresistible thing for Yang Hao.From childhood to adulthood, what he lacks the most is family affection and friendship, so he also attaches great importance to and cherishes affection.Tang Yanyan's gentle knife had quietly carved a mark on his heart. After the meal, Master Mu Laozhai said: "Yang Qinchao, the old man has sent someone to report to the Red Army Lord who is stationed here. The Red Army Lord will come to see you when he hears the news. Now, the old man is accompanying the imperial envoy. Would you like to go hunting in the back mountain, my lord? It would be nice to go with the game you hunted with your own hands." Yang Hao hurriedly said: "Thank you for the kindness of the old village master Mu. Yang Hao is injured, and it is really inconvenient to travel around the mountain. Besides, he is really tired from the journey. Yang wants to go back to his room to rest, and then go outside the village to visit those people. people." Village Master Mu said with a chuckle: "The old man is a rough man, and he forgot that the envoy Yang Qin was injured. Well, anyway, this barren mountain and wild ridge is really not a sight to behold, so... then invite envoy Yang Qin to go back. Rest. Turn around and accompany the imperial envoy to visit the villagers of the Northern Han Dynasty." Yang Hao's residence was originally adjacent to the residence of the old village master Mu, they went back side by side, and asked someone to bring tea to Yang Hao's room, and chatted with Yang Hao for a while, the two old village masters were about to get up and leave There was a scream: "My eagle, ah ah..." The child hadn't yet reached the stage of voice change, and when he yelled, his voice was shrill and sharp, which made Yang Hao and the two village owners startled. I only heard the child shout: "You bastard tortoise, I said why the eagle I raised disappeared, but you caught it, and... and... and plucked it into a bald eagle, little one!" Grandpa is going to kill you, ahhh..." Immediately there was Ye Dashao's panicky cry: "Help, my lord imperial envoy, Bisu, you bastard watching the fun, I will lose money, please forgive me..." Yang Hao and the two old village owners looked at each other, hurried out the door, and saw Ye Zhixuan running in the yard with a bald chicken in her hand, followed by a child, it was Mu Laozhai Mu Yu, the old lump of the master.The young man was dressed in strong clothes, with a knife pouch on his chest, and a row of willow leaf flying knives with tassels stuck in it. He chased after Ye Zhixuan, and shot a knife from time to time. One hobby is that she likes to fly mysteriously close to people's bodies, which frightens Ye Zhixuan to run around the yard.Because Bi Su's foot was injured, that foot was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and he couldn't use his light-weight kung fu. As soon as Ye Zhixuan circled around him, he hopped to avoid it. The situation of the two of them seemed real. Embarrassed. "Xiao Yu, stop!" Old Master Mu hurriedly stopped when he saw it, and the young man continued to chase after him. Old Master Mu chased after him, stretched out his arms lightly, held his son under his ribs, and slapped him hard on the buttocks. He shouted: "Little brat, do you want to rebel?" Xiao Yu blushed with anger, pointed at Ye Zhixuan and said, "He! You ask him! He stole my eagle and plucked all its feathers. Look, look..." Everyone took a closer look, only to realize that the bald chicken Ye Zhixuan was holding was actually an owl. Its feathers had been pulled out, and it no longer looked like an eagle, only its eyes were vaguely eagle-like. I just don't know if it was picked up by Ye Zhixuan, or because he couldn't bear the sunlight during the day, Yang Hao looked at those two swarthy green eyes and felt that they were getting dizzy... When Ye Zhixuan saw that the runaway child was caught, she said with a sad face, "I... I really didn't know that this owl was actually raised by someone." Yang Hao said helplessly: "Even if you don't know, you...you don't need to pluck out the eagle's feathers, you see, it looks like a bald chicken now, how can you give it back to others?" "I..." Ye Zhixuan was speechless for a moment, how dare he say that he saw the scene of the goddess in his heart and Yang Hao's unbearable scene last night, and vented his anger with this owl in sadness. Mu Yu became even more angry when he heard it, and shouted: "I managed to catch an eagle and raise it to maturity, but you made it look like this, you pay me for the eagle, pay me for the eagle Come." When Yang Hao heard it, he couldn't help but said happily: "Little brother, so you like raising eagles, how about this, I let him catch a real eagle and give it to you, so you don't make things difficult for him anymore, okay?" Mu Yu said disdainfully: "Just rely on him? Young master, I have all my abilities, and I have hunted a few eagles. They were either dead or disabled. What kind of bird is he doing like that? He doesn't have any fists or kicks, but he can still catch them." A real eagle?" Yang Hao laughed and said, "Little brother, you don't have to be skilled in martial arts to catch an eagle. You can't catch an eagle, but this Mr. Ye can catch an intact eagle for you." Mu Yu asked unconvinced: "Do you dare to bet with me?" "Why dare not, how to gamble?" Mu Yu pointed to Young Master Ye and said, "If he can help me catch a real eagle intact, I will recognize you as my eldest brother and sell you all my martial arts skills. If he can't catch the eagle ,hey-hey!" He stared at Ye Zhixuan's hair and said bitterly: "I want to pluck all the hair off his body, and make him look like an eagle like me." Yang Hao said without any hesitation when he heard this, "Success, we've made a deal." Ye Zhixuan couldn't stop her, and thought to herself: "What kind of bet is this? If you win, he will be your younger brother. If you lose, I will suffer, and Yang Qin will almost never suffer a loss if you co-operate with you?" Mr. Mu's sons are all serving in the army. This Yang Hao is an imperial envoy. He must have a bright future. After following him, this precious young son may have a better future than his elder brothers. Therefore, Mr. Mu Hearing the bet between the two, they didn't stop them at all with an attitude of being happy to see it happen, and let their son go. Mu Yu immediately stepped forward and said to Yang Hao, "Come on, let's make an oath of high-five. You are an adult and an imperial envoy. After three high-fives, you will never regret it." Yang Hao smiled secretly: "This Mu Yu is a child after all. Even if Young Master Ye really can't catch an eagle, he will buy one if he buys it. How could he let you rip off his hair? This little guy is full of martial arts, and even more so. What is rare is that once he is hired, Mu Kezhai will be his backer. The other sons of Mu Laozhai's master are also officers in the Zhefu, so his network will be further extended. This deal is not bad at all." So he stretched out his hand without hesitation, and "slapped" him with three high-fives. This kid has a lot of strength, with three palm strikes, Yang Hao's shoulder was hurt, and it hurt immediately, but he didn't want to make this boy look down upon, so he didn't frown. Seeing him not far away, Bi Su couldn't help but said, "Huh? Yang Hao was shot in the shoulder by an arrow, and he was seriously injured. How did he recover so quickly?" Young Master Ye hugged the bald-tailed hawk, feeling sour in his heart, and said in a strange way: "It's no wonder that he is unhappy, medicine is not as good as food, and food is not as good as yin and yang..."
