Brother Yeluxiu instinctively wanted to refuse after hearing Luo Donger's words, but when he saw Luo Donger's pleading eyes, his heart softened again.Luo Dong'er finally had a smiling face towards him, he didn't want to make her unhappy because of a few slaves. These few raw slaves are not yet tame, and they won't cause any trouble in the capital. At worst, they will send some cronies over to watch them, and it won't take much thought. Thinking of this, Brother Yeluxiu smiled generously Said: "No matter what you want, as long as I have it, I will give it to you. It's just a few slaves, what's the matter. Huilibao, my lord wants to buy them back, so figure out how much I should pay you..."

Hui Libao stood at the side and understood what he had heard. Seeing that Master Yeluxiu, who specializes in mediating disputes between royal families, was obedient to this beautiful girl, he quickly laughed and said, "Master Xiu, look What you are talking about is just a few slaves. Your lord opened your mouth, and the villain dares to ask for money? You can take them away, and it is the honor of the villain to honor the lord." Brother Yeluxiu smiled, and withdrew his hand that was in his arms, and said, "Sure, it's rare for you to be so thoughtful, so I won't be polite. You two, go with Miss Dong'er."

Scimitar Xiaoliu's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly pulled Luo Kedi and said: "There is also him." Luo Kedi's appearance at this time was different from before. Brother Yeluxiu looked him up and down a few times before he recognized him. Brother Yeluxiu vaguely remembered that this person was a leader of the Song Army. He also asked him after he was captured. He didn't find any useful information, so he finally sold him into slavery. Unexpectedly, he met him again today. Brother Yeluxiu frowned and said, "This person...is a prisoner of the Song Army, it's really inappropriate...Miss Dong'er, you have nothing to do with this person, right?"

During this period of time on the grassland, Machete Xiaoliu, Tietou and Luo Kedi depended on each other, supported each other, and established a deep friendship. Now that I have the opportunity to get rid of slavery, how can I bear to leave Luo Kedi alone? Dao Xiaoliu had a flash of inspiration, and shouted anxiously: "My lord, he is Miss Dong'er's distant cousin, how can you say it's irrelevant?" Luo Dong'er was smart at first, but she used to be a bit cowardly, so she often seemed to have no ideas. Now that she is alone in the enemy's nest and her mind is tempered, she still has this point in the city. After hearing Machete Xiaoliu's words, she knew that he wanted to save this Han man.

Machete Xiaoliu and Tietou were taken captive to Khitan because of her, Luo Donger felt extremely guilty, since he wanted to keep this person, he had to fulfill their wishes no matter what.So she looked up at Luo Kedi, was surprised for a moment, and then revealed a sudden expression: "Is it really a cousin? You...how did you end up here?" Brother Yeluxiu was very displeased. Although he loves Luo Donger, he is not willing to be teased for the sake of a woman's profit. As soon as his face darkened, he was about to explode, but when he pointed at Luo Kedi, he suddenly remembered the name Luo Kedi declared himself——Luo Hao.

His surname is Luo, and he had never met Miss Dong'er at that time, could it be such a coincidence?Could it be that he is really Luo Donger's distant cousin?Brother Yeluxiu thought about it again, most of the northwestern frontier troops in the Song Dynasty were recruited from the local area. This man claimed to be the leader of the frontier army, and his surname happened to be Luo. Maybe he really was Miss Dong'er's distant cousin.With this thought in mind, after thinking about it again, the thin man seemed to have a lot of thoughts, but Miss Dong'er was very immature and pure. If it wasn't for her cousin, if she was asked to act like this, it would be difficult for her to do it because of the change of expression. as natural.Now you might as well agree first, and then discuss their identities later, if there are flaws, I'm not afraid that they will be able to cover them up seamlessly.

Thinking of this, Brother Yeluxiu snorted, and said in a deep voice: "In this case, then you should come together. Remember, with Miss Dong'er here, no one will make things difficult for you. But you'd better Be quiet and guard yourselves, if you are obedient and well-behaved, it will not be difficult to get rid of slavery in the future. If not..., hmph! If something goes wrong, not only will you be unlucky, but Miss Dong'er will also be hurt, understand?" Scimitar Xiaoliu nodded quickly, and Luo Kedi hurriedly acted as if he had just recognized Luo Donger, meeting her in surprise.Because of this delay, we will be far away from Empress Xiao Chuo in front. Brother Yeluxiu is responsible for guarding, so we can't delay for long at this time, so I have to tell Dong'er to follow up quickly, and go after Xiao Chuo first. up.

As soon as Brother Yeluxiu left, Luo Donger ordered several female soldiers to share a horse with two women, and gave up the horse to Luo Kedi and the three men.As soon as the three got on their horses, Tieniu couldn't hold back, and said angrily: "Sister-in-law, why did you fall into the hands of the Khitans? That Khitan official was very polite to you, you...you were bullied by him, otherwise how could you?" Can you still command these Khitan female soldiers?" Luo Dong'er hurriedly argued: "The Khitan official is called Brother Yeluxiu. He is the Khitan's Great Tiyin Division. He is an official who specializes in managing disputes between the royal family. He has great power. He...is really polite to me. But he has never said anything rude, he is a modest gentleman, don't think too much about it."

As soon as Luo Donger spoke for Brother Yeluxiu, even Machete Xiaoliu showed suspicion, "The Khitan people they saw were fierce and brutal. Luo Donger, such a handsome Han woman, would be treated courteously by the Khitan people? If it wasn't for the Khitan official What kind of sweetness, will she be successful among the Khitan people?" When Luo Dong'er saw their expressions, he was angry and ashamed, and said: "After Dong'er was captured, she was favored by Empress Xiao of Khitan, and stayed by her side all the time. She was never bullied by anyone. Everything Dong'er said is true. , the two brothers don’t believe me?”

Machete Xiaoliu thought of Luo Donger who stood up for Yang Hao, was humiliated and fell into the river again, and would rather commit suicide in front of Ziwu Valley in order not to drag Datou and preserve her innocence. The thought was so unbearable, and he hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, I don't believe that the Khitan people are so polite, but I believe in you. If you say yes, then it must be, but I don't think Brother Xiu may have any good intentions, you can Be careful with him and stay on your toes." Luo Dong'er said: "I can save this naturally. Let's not wait too long to make people suspicious. Get on the horse and wait until we enter Shangjing. Let's talk about it in detail when we find an opportunity." Seeing what Machete Xiaoliu said, Tie Niu had to give up for the time being. Full of thoughts and doubts, he got on the horse.

It is not surprising that Machete Xiaoliu and Tieniu have some ideas.Just like the author, when I moved from a small mountain village to Shenyang City 20 years ago, my classmates and friends told me kindly in surprise: "I heard that there are people in the city who raise minks to make money. When they meet lost children, they catch them." Go back and chop it up, chop it up and feed it to the mink, you must be careful, don't go out alone on the street." It is not surprising that the ignorant schoolchildren said this, but even the teacher of the rural primary school said: "The pollution in the city is so serious that you can't look up at the sky, and the ground is full of smoke and dust. There is not a single tree growing in the entire city of Shenyang. People in the city The temperament is also very rough, and the people in the hotel will draw their swords at each other if they disagree with each other. Such a scene can be seen everywhere." Hearing this, I was terrified, wondering what kind of gray and dark place this city is, and hiding How many evil spirits were there. At that time, Song and Liao had little contacts, and they were threatened by Dacaogu. Therefore, the common people hated the Northerners and had a serious tendency to demonize them. The Northern Kingdom in the legends of the people was nothing but a group of uncivilized savages with no civilization. There is order. Who knows that Khitan has been established for more than 60 years, and its political system is more sound than that of the Central Plains. Because there are many Han people in the sixteen prefectures of Youyun, when the Central Plains went through five generations, many Han people, including merchants and scholars, moved north to the Khitan border Taking refuge and settling down here, the degree of Sinicization of the Khitan people is quite high. At this time, the Khitan people ruled from Liusha in the west, the Heilongjiang River Basin in the east and the area that originally belonged to the Bohai Sea, and the Luqu River (now Kherlen River) in the north, including the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun in the south.The former land of Khitan centered on Shangjing and the settlements of nomadic tribes in the northwest are still ruled by slavery.After the Bohai Sea was destroyed in the east, the original feudal system was still implemented.In the sixteen prefectures of Youyun in the south, the traditional feudal social system and political system of the Han people continued to be practiced.Thus formed into three different areas of the west, east and south.Different nationalities lived in these three regions, and different systems were practiced, and they were unified under the rule of the Liao Dynasty.It became fashionable for Khitan nobles to wear Han clothes, learn Chinese, and learn Chinese characters. Many Khitan nobles were good at riding and shooting on horseback, and were brave and good at fighting.Regardless of the legal system or culture, the North Country has reached a fairly high level, and it is not a lawless and gloomy world. But it is a fact that slaves have no human rights, and their situation is worse than that of Han slaves.Scimitar Xiaoliu and Tietou had just been captured, they were slaves at the lowest level, and they were detained under Huilibao's tent all the time. The only thing they knew about the Khitan people was whips and insults, so their views were naturally the same as before. Luo Ke is quite familiar with the hostility of the northerners. He knows that the northerners also have parents, wives and children, and they also know the loyalty of the monarch and ministers. Moreover, the northerners have always admired the culture of the southerners. There are not a few Han Chinese who are high-ranking officials and ministers in Khitan.This Dong'er girl has always been among the upper echelons of the Khitan, and is also favored by the Khitan empress, so it is not unusual for her to be in a better situation. He nodded and replied: "Miss Dong'er said that although we have been abused, the people of the Northern Kingdom are exactly the same as the people of our Han people. The Northerners also value filial piety, loyalty, propriety, righteousness and shame, but we are slaves." Status is not one of them. Miss Dong'er took shelter under the Khitan Empress, so it is not surprising that she is in such a situation." He swept his eyes and saw that the female soldiers were all standing behind and couldn't hear their words clearly, so he hurriedly said: "Miss Dong'er, I think Brother Yeluxiu still has doubts about me, you and I should quickly inform each other of our identities , come out with a unified statement, so as not to show your feet when he is interrogated." "Okay!" Luo Dong'er also subconsciously glanced left and right, and said in a low voice, "The ancestor of the slave family is originally from Huainan. My father, Luo Gongyuan, moved to Liujia Village, Bazhou seventeen years ago. He made a living by teaching and teaching. .My mother..." Before she finished speaking, Luo Kedi straightened his eyes, and said in a voiceless voice: "Luo Gongyuan in Huainan? Is your maiden name Li Yanran?" This time it was Luo Dong'er's turn to be surprised. She looked at Luo Kedi in amazement and said, "No one else knows my mother's maiden name except my slave's family and my late father. You... how do you know?" Luo Kedi was excited for a while, and said: "Miss Dong'er, ah no... Sister Dong'er, have you ever heard your father mention Luo Gongming?" Luo Dong'er thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I've never heard of it..." Luo Kedi's face darkened, and he said with a wry smile, "Uncle...the father who won't forgive me until death..." Luo Dong'er was stunned and said, "What did you say?" Luo Kedi looked at her, and said seriously: "Dong'er, I...is really your cousin, my father Luo Gongming is your father's brother, your father...your father hates my father for being an official for five dynasties. , was ridiculed for being young in the political arena and losing the integrity of a scholar, so there was resentment between the two brothers. The two brothers often quarreled. One night seventeen years ago, the two quarreled after drinking. My father was so angry that he slapped his uncle. You have a stubborn personality, so you took your aunt and ran away from home. I never heard from you again. I never expected that my father has been looking for you for more than ten years and there is no whereabouts of your family. You and my brother and sister reunited here and now..." Luo Dong'er's almond eyes widened when she heard this, her cute little mouth opened into an O shape, and the left and right scimitar Xiaoliu and Tie Niu were also dumbfounded.Scimitar Xiaoliu never thought that he would make a prophecy, saying that they were brother and sister, and they really became brother and sister: "Grandma, I cursed that Libao would die that time, why didn't he die? Oh! Yes! I forgot to mention the time..."
"Judge Cheng, Luling Prefecture is close to Dangxiang in the west and Fuzhou in the east. If we want to communicate with the Central Plains, we cannot do without the support of the Zhe family in Fuzhou. It is impossible to predict how many days it will take for our government to go to Fugu. I am not here. These days, military affairs are under the responsibility of Mulao and Brother Ke, the deputy envoys of regiment training, Lin Pengyu and other four elders are in charge of business and tax affairs, Fan Siqi is in charge of academic affairs, and you are fully responsible for judicial affairs. Everyone must work together to bring our Luling Prefecture Business is booming." Cheng Dexuan said respectfully and politely: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we will fulfill our duties and perform our own responsibilities, and we will definitely not make Your Majesty worry about the future." These days, Cheng Dexuan's performance is remarkable, he works conscientiously, never complains at all, and his problem of drinking has also changed.He is also very respectful to Yang Hao, making it impossible to pick out any faults.Yang Hao didn't know whether he had changed his past or had other thoughts. To be on the safe side, he handed over the judiciary and criminal law to Cheng Dexuan, and Li Guangcen, Mu En, Ke Zhenzhen, and Mu Qingxuan were in charge of the military power.The financial power is dispatched by Lin Pengyu's four elders, and Lu Siqi is in charge.These two most important powers are held by people he trusts, and he is not afraid of Cheng Dexuan's tricks. At the same time, the distribution of these two powers is checked and balanced again, which also avoids the dominance of one family and corruption. Seeing that Cheng Dexuan's answer was correct and his attitude was respectful, Yang Hao smiled slightly, met Li Guangcen's eyes again, and then hugged Fan Siqi, Lin Pengyu, Ke Zhenzhen and others, put on the reins, and led Bisu, Mu Yu and others The man left the magistrate's yamen and drove out of the valley along the flat and open official road. Lu Dongbin was also in his team. A few days ago, Bi Su wore a monk's robe and walked around Yang Hao's side. Everyone was used to it. I don't think it's strange that Yang Hao didn't give an introduction, and everyone didn't ask questions. Lv Dongbin has been practicing hard outside the customs for the past ten years, and he has not seen his old friend Chen Tuan for many years. Now that he is old and his days are coming to an end, he sees his old friend once less. Friends catch up on the old days.He broke up with Yang Hao halfway, and rode his horse to Taihua Mountain alone, while Yang Hao went straight to Fugu with his entourage. It was only at this time that he went to meet Zhe Yuxun, Yang Hao had his own plan.Zhe Yuxun was pretending to lead troops to encircle and suppress Dangxiang Qishi before, and he was not in Fugu, this is one reason.But the more important reason is that if he rushed to Fuzhou early, he would be an out-and-out beggar who could only beg for gifts from Zhe Yuxun instead of sitting down and negotiating on an equal footing. If it was in the past, then he wouldn't care about it, even if it was an unequal negotiation, as long as the tens of thousands of people he personally brought out were preserved and his goal was achieved.But it is not possible now. Now that he is the prefect of Luling Prefecture, if he cannot win enough rights for himself and will be controlled by others everywhere in the future, his life in Luling Prefecture will be difficult. So until the secret alliance with Dangxiang Seven Clans was successful, Luling Prefecture's business routes had initially expanded, and if they wanted to further expand their influence and operations, they could no longer ignore the existence of Fuzhou, and they also had a certain amount of capital to bargain with him. Go to Fugu. The last time Yang Hao came here, he lived in Fugu Station, and this time he still lives in the station.Then he went to pay respects to General Zhe with the greeting card, but unexpectedly, the door of General Zhe’s mansion was shut down. He stood in front of the mansion for a while, and the person who delivered the report came back, and said to him with a fake smile: “The mansion Mr. Tai, my Master Jiedu just came back from the expedition led by the army. I have a small ailment and I feel unwell. Now I am not suitable to see guests. Please go back, Mr. Futai. When my master is in better health, I will invite you to come over to the mansion." Yang Hao was not angry when he heard this, and smiled slightly: "It's a misfortune for Yang to come here. General Zhe is in danger in his prefecture, and he is sick, but he can't be neglected. Please let the housekeeper reply to Lord Jiedu. Sir, please ask for medical medicine, so that you can rest and recuperate your body, and Yang will come to visit you again when you are fully recovered." The butler didn't expect Yang Hao to react so calmly, so he couldn't help being startled for a moment, but held back when he was about to say something more, seeing Yang Hao leave with a smile, the butler turned his head to think for a while, and hurried back again. Bi Su said angrily: "My lord, how could Zhe Yuxun be sick at this time, and what kind of illness is he who can't even see the guests. He is obviously negligent on purpose and doesn't want to deal with you." Yang Hao said with a smile: "Not necessarily. He is a big shot. Big shots rarely do things directly. They always like to go around and around. It seems that when others come to him, they always have a lot of scheming. This There is no way around it. After a long time at the top, the city is self-deprecating. Suspicion is inevitable. Which hero in the world is not Cao Cao? Do you think you have the same guts as you, a hero in the world?" He got into the carriage, leaned on the back of the seat, and said with a smile: "Let's go back, we need to know whether Zhe Yuxun doesn't want to associate with me at all, or whether he wants to take advantage of his figure and suppress my prestige, we only need to try it .” Bi Su jumped into the carriage and asked in surprise, "How to test him?" Yang Hao said calmly: "The last time I came to Fuzhou as an imperial envoy, I was grateful for the hospitality of the officials and gentry in Fuzhou. It is not inappropriate to come here. Now I come to Fuzhou again as the magistrate of Luling Prefecture. It's time to invite back. After returning, I posted a post to invite Fugu officials and wealthy gentry to a banquet. Whether they are officials or merchants, all of these people live their lives on the back of the mansion. They are well-informed and flexible. As long as they are willing to come , we know exactly what General Zhe is thinking." He nodded with a smile and said: "Going back, my lord is going to use Wushuang calligraphy and write invitations with my own hand. The first ones to invite are the sons of General Zhe, hehe, let's see if they... come or not!"
Xiaofan Building is the largest hotel in Fugu. There is also a fan tower in Bianliang, Tokyo, which is the fan tower where Lin Chong and Lu Qian once ate wine in the Water Margin.It was the largest restaurant in Bianliang, Tokyo. During the Five Dynasties, that restaurant was originally a place for wine and meat and wholesale sales of alum. Its real name was Alumanlou.Later, it became more and more famous, and the buildings continued to expand and increase in height, and finally developed into a complex of five buildings, each with three floors. How big is its scale?The Cuiyun Building in Daming Mansion has a hundred or ten pavilions, and the Baifan Building in Tokyo is not smaller than it. There are a hundred and ten rooms in a building, and five or six hundred pavilions in five buildings. The star hotel is famous all over the world, because someone built a small fan building in Fugu, which borrowed the fame of the Tokyo fan building. Although its scale is not comparable to the Baifan building in Bianliang, Tokyo, there are more than one hundred pavilions. Yang Hao entertained distinguished guests here, which matched his current status quite well.Yang Hao's invitations were scattered all over the sky like flowers, and the government officials who knew Zhe Yuxun's intentions, and the wealthy gentry such as the Qin family, Tang family, and Li family who had a close relationship with Zhefu all knew it well, even if the tone was not Very resolute, and no one categorically refused.Those officials and merchants who couldn't figure out Zhefu's intentions, although they had no way to find out the attitude of General Zhe, they would try to figure out what he wanted, and when they saw the reactions of these officials, they knew it well and agreed to it one after another. Yang Hao got a reply and learned that Zhe Yuxun's worshiping brothers Yong'an Army Transfer Envoy Ren Qingshu, Jundu Yuhou Ma Zongqiang, the three sons of the Zhe family, and the third young master of the Tang family all promised to attend the banquet whenever they had time, and he felt at ease. .Since these people have such an attitude, then there is no need to worry about General Zhe's refusal to meet today. General Zhe's putting on airs is just to create his own urgency and force him to make more concessions.Since General Zhe also has requests from Luling Prefecture, he is not afraid that he will not form an alliance. The only difference is how much concessions he makes. Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Hao changed into a scribe's light robe, Shi Shi ran out of the post station, and went straight to Xiaofan Tower by car.Sitting in the car, looking at the passers-by on the road, Yang Hao suddenly thought of that beautiful woman, who was abrupt that night and offended her, making her furious and not allowing him to send her away the next day.Thinking of his reaction at that time, Yang Hao himself felt a little hot, he only said that Zhe Ziyu's face was tender, and he was embarrassed to meet him, and he really didn't go to see her off the next day, so he forgot to ask her where she lived, now that he arrived in Fugu, but How to find her? I haven't seen her for a few days. Although the prefectural affairs are complicated, I still think of her from time to time.Unknowingly, this cute girl who loves to laugh has walked into his heart, and now thinking about it, he feels even hotter.While he was in a daze, the carriage stopped suddenly, and he heard someone yelling and a woman crying.Yang Hao calmed down and asked, "What happened?"
