Chapter 208: How Can You Be Rude When Friends Come From Afar?
A powerful caravan from the Huainan Road Hezhou into the Northern Liang Road Youzhou, straight to the Wudang Mountain.
The caravan was personally escorted by the capital’s forbidden army whose sheaths were wrapped with eye-opening golden and yellow silk threads, and there were nearly twenty great inner experts with brass and yellow embroidered fish bags on their waists interspersed among them.
After this caravan, there is another luxurious caravan trailing on the post road, and all the horsemen driving the car are top martial artists with long qi.
At the time of Liyang’s destruction of Buddhism and the rise of Taoism, there were brand new Taoist temples breaking ground in the north and south of the Yangtze River, wherever there were geographic hubs and spiritual mountains and rivers, and the sound of immortal music resonated throughout the Central Plains. Among them, Tai’an City Xingyang Kuan, the system as if the Palace forbidden, set up away from the sun within the five emperor statues, in accordance with the ancient rituals of Zhao, Mu position order were served on both sides of the statue of Taoist saints, take the Palace Caiyun Pavilion large material to build Xingyang Kuan door, broken Ganquan Hall material for the Hall of Laojun, the Kuan inside the shadow wall is painted with a Taoist thirty-six caves, seventy-two blessed with the grand scale of the great system, the viewer will not be amazed. This Xingyang Kuan for a time as the world’s first Taoist temple, Kuan master Wu Lingsu is the one who closed the door of the two temples of Taoist priests, is now deservedly the head of the northern Taoist, so now the world has a “capital Xingyang Kuan, the north and south of the two ancestor court,” the saying. Just when the world knew that the white-robed monks of the two Zen temples were going to debate with the Wudang priests at Lotus Peak, there was news that the feathered minister, who had been in the center of the city of Tai’an, was going to rush to the Wudang Mountain of Beiliang in the capacity of the court as the chief official of the Chongxuan Department, holding an imperial decree, which decreed that the old Wudang master Huang Manshan would be posthumously revered as a real person of the Chongxu.
An air of dusty middle-aged Taoist sitting in the carriage, wearing a purple and gold robe, arm resting on a handle with three gold rings of purple silk duster, smiling lightly. The identity of the noble Taoist also sits next to a cool-looking young man, although also wearing a Taoist robe, but compared to the middle-aged Taoist monk’s immortal style of Taoism to be closer to the world. The young man opened his mouth and laughed: “Father, I thought that after the river state boundary monument, the Youzhou military will at least make a few hundred riders to give us a horse threat of movement, it seems that the surname Xu is not really lawless, to father is still very scrupulous.”
Middle-aged Taoist is in the capital of Wu Ling Su, tree move dead people move live ah, remember just to the city of Tai’an that moment, eye over the top of the city dignitaries like to take his title that does not live up to its name Qingcheng King of the fun line of music, occasional banquets and drinks meet, who is not on his mouth flirting with the name of the king, but not lazy to hide the eyes of that heavy sarcasm? The good thing is that the bitter days will soon be over, the Dragon Tiger Mountain side of their own not to compete, to the young man surnamed Xu three times tossed in the face, a mysterious Taoist in the Dragon Tiger Mountain hermitage death, but also caused the first emperor and the new king successive two emperors of the wrath of the emperor, coupled with the departure from the sun to destroy the Buddha is the trend, finally let him Wu Lingsu encounter the wind and clouds will be transformed into a dragon, and hard stepped on the Dragon Tiger Mountain and the two Zen Buddhist Temple two mountains to the apex of the power. The two temples have come to the apex of power. In this, his nominal wife’s secret guidance, credit, although the two are not husband and wife, but even if Wu Lingsu now made the Northland Taoist Taoist head, she is still in awe.
Wu Ling Su glanced at his only son Wu Shi Zhen, some dissatisfaction, their own court serious Chong Xuan order is to go to Wudang Mountain to promulgate the holy decree, your kid pulled together a bunch of Tai’an City dude with the back like what words, that what the capital’s first son of Wang Yuan Yuan Yuan, his old man Wang Xiong Gui has been whisked away from the Ministry of Household Secretary’s position as a strategy to serve as a strategic ambassador to the Road of Guangling, but also the first fart, if it is not the Tantan Weng also read the spring of the Yong Hui of the point. If it is not Tantan Weng still read the spring of the Yong Hui of that point of the fire love, Wang Yuan Yuan that point of the city can endure, has long been given to eat the bones are not left. There are also the remaining three capital city male, and which is the real weight? That Yan’s colorful embryo at least there is a posthumous famous grandfather Yan Zhenchun, Tai’an City does not look at the face of the Buddha, more or less will not bother with this kid. But the little fat man called Song Tianbao, no one in the ancestry is an official read a book, is relying on his father’s name of the rich A two Liao in the capital a throw of money, every day to the people as a wrongdoer, PiaoYiYi small fool only, this rootless rich, really can last? But is a hundred feet high building built on the sand, the wind blows, said spoiled on the collapse.
Wu Ling Su said: “Shizhen ah, for my father seems, the capital family children also divided into that three, six, nine and so on, such as Wang Yuan Yuan, his father Wang Xiong Gui although suffered relegation, from the first class of the Beijing officials fell into the most dangerous one line of the Secretary for making, but after the six Beijing officials out of the Beijing for a few years and then return to the Beijing high on the, will become a common practice in the imperial court. As the only remaining pillar of Zhang Lu, it is a good thing that it is difficult to support, Wang Xionggui may not have no opportunity to rise again, and Wang Yuanyuan has Tantanweng care, you get acquainted with it, my father will never oppose. But Wang Yuan Yuan compared to Yin Mao Chun’s eldest son, Yin Chang Geng, the Ministry of Justice Minister Han Lin’s only son, Han Shenyan, is much worse, and even Fan Chang Hou, Li Jifu and Gao Tingshu, a group of young people from the countryside can not be compared. As for that unclimatic Yan’s son, the family is also like a half dead person hanging on to his breath, so you ……”
In the capital circle of power and nobility around the nobleman Wu Shizhen laughed: “Dad, you said I actually understand, but some things can not be rushed, say Zhao Wenwei, Yin Changgeng, Han Waking words of these three people, the father’s generation are Zhang Shoufu’s favorite students, and then early foresight to go their separate ways, the father’s generation of official reputation is good, the latter generation of the word of mouth is not bad, I’m even if the hot face paste cold ass to go, they may not agree, even if the cheeky face of a man who is not a man, he may not be a man of the world, but he is a man of the world. May not agree, even if the cheek into their door, but also can not do their friends and confidants, rather than this futile, it is better to spend more thought on the stream of Wang Yuan Yuan.”
Wu Lingsu sighed: “Small fights, difficult to achieve great things.”
Wu Shizhen said with a bitter face, “I do want to attach myself to that Chen Shaobao, but they don’t even sell your face to you, father, so where will they pay attention to me?”
Wu Ling Su reached out and stroked the dust whisk vermilion silk, whispered, “Our father and son are still a little shallow.”
Wu Shizhen leaned in close to the new leader of the northern Taoist religion and lowered his voice, “Father, if we can step on that Xu this time, and return to the capital, my father’s position in His Majesty’s heart will surely be a hundred feet higher. To take a step back, I look for an opportunity to secretly push Wang Yuanyan these rash youngsters out to feud with Northern Liang, and once we return to the capital to make a scene, the Xu family’s reputation in the capital is going to stink to the end.”
Wu Lingsu hesitated, “that person even dare to refuse to accept the imperial decree, and in his territory, where is Wang Yuanyan a few can be shaken in the slightest, as for the scolding of the Tai’an City officialdom, the Xu family father and son have never cared about, you be careful to move the stone stone their own feet, the Northern Liang water brush room spies can fight with the Liyang Zhao hook for many years without losing the wind, not to be underestimated. Wang Yuanyuan those people, not enough to accomplish things, I do not look forward to.”
Wu Shizhen smiled and said: “do not expect the surname Xu’s bones, nausea nausea him, also quite good.”
Wu Shizhen remembered that year in the Qingcheng Mountain to that peer to the scene of great humiliation, tone sorrowful said: “Even if the surname Xu caught some handle, but for such a small matter, he really dare to kill?”
Wu Lingsu suddenly asked: “The son of the Hezhou county governor surnamed Liu in the back of the team, said that he took a knife sheath to beat the surname Xu, really?”
Wu Shizhen gloated, “Mostly it’s true, according to what Liu Chengfeng said, when Xu Fengnian was traveling the rivers and lakes with an old servant, he passed through Hezhou, and got into a conflict on the street, which resulted in him smashing Xu Fengnian’s forehead with the sheath of a cool knife. That guy also said that Xu Fengyen threatened to bring 10,000 Northern Liang iron cavalry to flatten Hezhou, so Liu Yanfeng asked who are you, and then Xu Fengyen asked a rhetorical question ‘Xu Snapdragon is my old man, who do you think I am?’ Of course, Liu Chengfeng did not believe, gave Xu Fengyen a knife sheath, simply drew his sword and chased and cut half a street. It is last year to listen to those county tavern storyteller Mr. smallpox, only to know that Xu Fengyen is still the son of his highness, but also really with an old servant white dragon fish clothing to break through the rivers and lakes, scared half dead, especially Xu Fengyen refused to accept the imperial decree, sent the Youzhou cavalry pressures on the border of the Hezhou, not only the Liu multiplication of wind this guy, and even his father, including a large family are all the night to piss and run out of the city, and then after the see the Youzhou army does not want to hit the Hezhou meaning, only to return warily to the county. Only then did they return to the county with fear and trembling.”
Wu Lingsu also found it interesting, laughed: “But then there is not another Youzhou 10,000 horsemen into Jizhou? That was to pass through Hezhou.”
Wu Shizhen laughed with his belly, almost bursting into tears, “So that family went back to their old ways and ran away in the night, good thing the Yuzhou cavalry eventually returned from Hulukou, so that Liu Zhanfeng’s father didn’t quit his post and move to Jiangnan, but the Liu family was also blessed with a good fortune, and the whole of Hezhou knew about the hero who dared to beat up the King of Beilang, and Liu Zhanfeng’s father won a unique title in Hezhou in the last local appraisal presided over by Yin Maochun. Even Liu Xifeng’s father got a unique ‘upper middle class’ in the last local evaluation hosted by Yin Maochun. This is not Liu Xifeng and Song Tianbao are good buddies who have known each other for many years, and when he received the dust for Wang Yuanyan and them, he fell in love at first sight with the daughter of the former Minister of Criminal Affairs in the caravan, and with the fact that he was probably sure that Xu Fengyen would not be able to see eye to eye with him, he only followed along with him to Youzhou in a deadpan manner.”
Wu Lingsu, who has long since ceased to be a self-appointed king in a corner of the country, sneered, “Rumor has it that Song Tianbao, his grandfather, as the premier God of Wealth of the two Liao’s, was quite at odds with Xu Snapdragon who had risen to prominence in Jinzhou of Liaodong in his early years, a Liu Xifeng, together with the Wang Yuanyan who clashed with Xu Fengyen in the capital’s Nine Nine Pavilions, is not bad as a thing that is like a man divided by his group.”
Wu Shizhen’s face was a little embarrassed, as if he had to add one more himself.
Tomorrow Lotus Peak will be held in the first Buddhist debate, Wudang Mountain has apparently no place to stay, South God Road near the foot of the mountain several towns are also full of inns, two sets of people have feet into a place called Escape from the summer town, the two sides looking for a rest room in a diametrically opposite way, one of the set of ten or so people are persuasive talk with the east end of the town of a building of a small inn to talk about it, the unusual room to live out of the Central Plains area of the sky price of the first-class rooms, the shopkeeper When he received the stack of road signs, he only glanced at them and stopped taking care of them, so what if they came from Tai’an City at the foot of the Son of Heaven, but they had to be slaughtered to death by our store. However, the name of these guests are really not vulgar, the sword of the middle-aged man, Qi Jiajie. The middle-aged man with the sword, Qi Jiajie. The young couple who look like a good match, Yin Changgeng and Zhao Chunyuan. Handsome young man called Zhao Wenwei, two green shirts scholar respectively called Han Xuanyin and Gao Shilian, the rest of some of the escort servants look like, their parents gave the name is not so elaborate.
And the other set of more than twenty people, directly went to the summer town’s best inn, heard that the guests are full, one of them without saying a word, smashed down more than five hundred silver tickets, said to the inn package round. Older innkeeper listening to the official voice of these young boys on the bad, thinking six hundred and how, now their own inn according to the market price of a day to charge a hundred to two, you guys want to live for three days, five hundred and two top of the fart. The boss rolled his eyes and said that there is no rule of driving guests away from the inn. The young man with the accent of Hezhou touched out another five hundred taels and did not say anything. The boss stretched out his hand and touched the thick stack of brand new silver bills, and began to be at war. Fear that others do not know that he is rich young man waved his hand, there is a helper around immediately threw out two large gold ingots, the boss look, silver is the father of the gold is the master ah, since we see these “elders” let’s not talk about the rules of morality, right? However, the boss is still an inch, said that more than thirty guests are living down, I’m afraid that the store fellows can not shout ah. This said, immediately there are a few reached out to press the hilt of the sword hilt, the boss was anxious, rushed to persuade, don’t, don’t do it, who dares to make trouble in our Beilang this day will have to play the end of the game. The boss picked up the silver tickets and gold ingots, went upstairs to explain to the guests, the boss played a careful eye, not only to take the initiative to pay back the money, and everyone poured three or four silver, but also told the people that is the Northern Liang border to come to a group of military masters to stay in the store is really can not afford to be offended. It is also the innkeeper’s fortune, the guests even gave persuade out, after all, fell to the need to escape the summer town to stay in the town of foreign incense, whether it is a hilarious jianghu people, or Beiliang Road neighboring government officials and sons, are not likely to be any big shot, so once heard is the fierce and vicious Beiliang Border Army to live in the store, no matter how hard the mouth, the bottom of the heart on the spot on the false.
Qi Jiajie, it is that Qi Jiajie who is the number one swordsman in the capital, not only was he the sword master of many imperial princes in his early years, even Bieye’s daughter, Zhang Gaoxia, was once his disciple.
Can labor he escorted thousands of miles of that set of people, the reason is simple, these young people arbitrarily pick out a throw to the south of the Yangtze River, are officials and dignitaries try to show the object of goodwill, because their family elders, respectively, are the deputy of the Chinese Minister of Qi Yanglong, the old Ministry of Ministers Zhao right age, in the past years, “the first phase of the storage phase of the first a” Yin Maochun, Duke Gao Shi Zhi, the Ministry of Justice Minister Han Lin, and the Ministry of Justice Minister Han Lin, the Ministry of Justice Minister. The Minister of Justice, Mr. Han Lin. Among them, Yin Changgeng, the eldest son of Yin Maochun, and Zhao Chunyuan, the second daughter of Zhao Yuling, were a couple, and the fathers of the two families had been strongly opposed to it, but eventually, His Majesty the Emperor, who was only the fourth prince at that time, arranged for the marriage, which was also a good story in the capital. Zhao Wenwei, who had a reputation as a child prodigy, was the favorite son of Zhao Yuiling, while Han Shengyin, the second son of Han Lin, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, who was soon to be promoted to be the strategic ambassador of the Huainan Road, was about to marry the virtuous Zhao Chamberlain. Gao Shilian and Gao Shiyi siblings are a pair of sons and daughters of Duke Gao Shizhi of Yan in his later years, and they have always been pampered by the Duke of Yan, but fortunately, the siblings have always been low-profile in Tai’an City, Gao Shilian and Gu Jiantang’s son of the Daju Guo are close friends, and Gao Shiyi and Zhao Chunyuan are close friends who have played with each other since they were young.
It can be said that these young people can already be called the most outstanding official children in Liyang officialdom.
Cai Nan, the governor of Huainan Road, used to be Gu Jiantang’s top general, Han Lin will soon be appointed as the governor of Huainan Road, so he will have to deal with them in the future, and Gao Shilian has a very good relationship with both of Gu Jiantang’s sons, so there are a lot of things that are not possible for bigwigs to sit at the same table and laugh about, or even develop a tacit understanding of, but if an uneducated junior comes forward, he will have a good relationship with Gu Jiantang, so he can be a good friend. However, if the “uneducated” juniors appear, on the contrary, it is much smoother.
At this time, they all gathered in Yin Changgeng’s house, and it so happened that the window was facing the street, Han Shengyan stood at the window and looked at the Northern Liang brocade horsemen riding slowly through the street, and laughed: “Watching a leaf fall tells us about the fall of autumn, and the combat power of Northern Liang’s border army is really horrifying.”
Gao Shiyi snickered, “Yo, now that you are the son of Lord Jingliu of the second grade of the Hall, your guts have fattened up quite a bit, and you all dare to say good things about Northern Liang?”
Han Lin raised his hands, signaling that he was at liberty to be beaten and scolded.
Gao Shilian couldn’t help but give Han Lin a fight, glaring, “How can you marry a man with a mouth like that?!”
Gao Shiqing threw back a glare, “Shut up!”
Gao Shilian muttered a catchphrase, “It’s really bad luck to have such a sister.”
Gao Shiyi, who was most eager to be a chivalrous jianghu master, pressed the hilt of his sword fiercely and threatened, “Looking for chipping isn’t it?!”
Yin Changgeng, the oldest and most stable of the group, said helplessly, “It’s fine if you want to drink tea, but if you want to quarrel, go out and quarrel.”
Zhao Chunyuan, who was making tea, beckoned to Gao Shiqing, and Zhao Wenwei, who was still a teenager, asked smilingly, “Brother-in-law, why did Wang Yuanyan and those people arrive at the foot of Wudang Mountain before the Wu Family’s big and small real people?”
Yin Changgeng softly told the truth: “Realist Wu deliberately slowed down his pace and waited until the last day of the Lotus Peak Debate before he climbed the mountain to promulgate the Holy Decree. The reason why he rushed earlier was because he was afraid that the Youzhou military would step in to obstruct the process, so much so that he missed the best time. Since there is no movement from the Youzhou military now, it is possible to take it easy.”
The town was so small that with his head poking out the window, he could see the light from the east to the west, and Han Shengyan frowned, “It seems like Wang Yuanyan’s group is causing trouble again, and it’s just as well that they were in the capital, but they won’t stop when they get to Beiliang either.”
Yin Changgeng said flatly, “Let them go.”
Gao Shilian leaned over the window bars and glanced at them, sneering indignantly, “The battle is not small. Worthy of being the four dukes of the capital traveling together, the faction is full. This group of assholes lying on their fathers’ merit books, enjoying happiness is just a matter of time, but also want to harm people! If they become high-ranking officials in the future, what else will they do but wreak havoc on the country!”
Yin Changgeng frowned, “Speak cautiously.”
Gao Shiyi made a face at his brother, “Did you hear me, Brother Yin also wants you to shut up.”
Gao Shilian folded his hands and silently chanted, “God, God, hurry up and throw down a random hanyou to marry this girl off.”
Zhao Wenwei puffed out her chest, “Second Brother Gao, what do you think of me? Am I worthy of Sister Gao?”
The corners of Gao Shilian’s mouth twitched, crying and laughing.
Gao Shiyi swung a slap on the boy’s head, “Old Mother changed your diapers back then!”
Yin Changgeng smiled, “Alright, alright, all stop fooling around, sit down and drink tea. This is the only few taels of Spring God Lake tea left.”
Gao Shiyi’s butt had only sat down when he immediately got up and said with a smile, “No, it’s silly not to join in with the fun, I have to go to the other end of the town to take a look.”
As she said this, Gao Shiyi carefully looked at Yin Changgeng who always spoke in a thin voice but was the most capable of making up his mind, the latter looked up at her and slowly said, “It was agreed in the capital that there would be no more than three incidents, it has already happened twice in the capital and in Jixinan, if there is any more, you will have to return to the capital immediately.”
Gao Shi Turnip smiled brightly and said, “By order!”
Gao Shiqing ran out of the inn in a puff of smoke, along the street straight to the inn that escaped from the summer town’s most impressive, but also not close, after all, she and Wang Yuanyan Yan Seibei and Song Fatun several are not strangers, especially Yan Seibei’s Yan family residence with their Yan State Duke’s House is a neighbor, Gao Shiqing to the old general Yan Zhenchun that is incomparable admiration, but to this upper beam is very positive lower beam but crooked to the grandmother’s home to go to the first eldest grandson of the Yan family, since childhood, the Deeply abhorrent, Yan old general died for the country, was able to break the beauty of the posthumous, this time Yan color embryo tail cocked to the sky to go, even have the courage to fling the family elders with the Duke of Yan to propose marriage, Gao Shiyi almost can not help but find someone to this guy set of sacks to sink the body at the bottom of the lake. Gao Shi turnip line of sight, that Yan color embryo really live up to expectations, to the northern Liang this town as usual to molest the good family, is with a gang of fox and dog friends surrounded by two wonderful women, Gao Shi turnip some surprise, do not say that most of the northern Liang women women with a high stature, in front of the two young lady, can be very watery, with their own young woman with a sword probably belongs to the middle and upper posture, can not be counted on how stunning, but the other one is rather Outstanding, Tai’an City, the place of willow, known as the national color and fragrance of the streets, Gao Shi turnip has had a few female disguised as a man to run to the long experience, is that those flowers, are not in front of the tall woman’s moving posture, especially her vice refusal of a thousand miles of air, as long as it is a man who has a heart of victory, can not help but to challenge some of them, no wonder that Yan embryo color to jump out in a hurry. However, Wang Yuanyuan was not present and should be hiding inside the inn overlooking the street.
Yan color embryo gently rotate the closed sandalwood folding fan in his hand, hehehe laughs: “Brother I am a scholar, never do that unscrupulous hooks that robbed the people’s women, but brother me, born with hospitality, this is not just want to invite the two sisters into the building to have a cup of tea, and then at night together with the poetry and enjoy the moon, brother is the people of the capital, has been curious about the moon in the Northwest in the end is not the moon is generally full with the city of Taian, the two sisters, the two sisters, the two sisters, the two sisters, the two sisters, the two sisters are not the same as the moon. The moon in the northwest is as full as the moon in Tai’an City, so it’s not difficult for you two to show your face, right?”
The woman with the sword laughed back in anger, “Reward your face!”
Yan Sebiao laughed, “Spicy and flavorful! The original is a Northwest rouge horse, brother old favorite.”
The woman with the sword is about to draw her sword to cut people, the companion woman around her to pull her back, the original has been a group of Beiliang nowadays is the most “infamous” of the brocade riding fast horse whip to come, the commander of the horseman asked in a deep voice: “What’s the matter?”
The woman with a sword pointed at Yan Sebiao’s gang of dudes and said indignantly: “The fop from the capital, you want to …… in broad daylight.”
Yan color embryo face innocent interrupted the woman’s words, “want how? This male didn’t move his hands and feet right, just chatting a few words.”
Jin Riding Wu long face gloomy, palm subconsciously against the waist of the Northern Liang knife hilt, condescending look down on the gang of “from the capital” young people, “then you in the end chatting is not finished? If you’re done, then go back to the inn! If you’re not, then continue, I’ll listen to it.”
Yan color embryo who had never suffered from this kind of stupidity in the capital gritted his teeth, gently smiled, turned his head and glanced to a young man standing beside Liu Xifeng, that guy walked out two steps stiffly, squeezed out a smile to that Jin Cavalry Chief and said, “My father is the old governor of Huang Gong County of Youzhou, and my elder brother is the previous captain of the Eight Guan, both are his own people.”
The jinzhi captain’s face was expressionless: “Not to mention the last governor of Huang Gong County, even the current governor can’t control my old son, as for the Eight Guan Captains, it’s a miscellaneous number, isn’t it? Nowadays in Beiliang, even the generals are not counted, so what is a captain of the eight passes? You’re one of us? Who the hell is your friend?”
Seeing this scene, Gao Shiyi was a bit dumbfounded, if it were any other place in Liyang, it would be this local snake’s noble son who stepped in, that sesame seed sized officer’s chief would have to grovel and obediently get lost, and it is not surprising that he even climbed into the power of the rich and powerful and acted as a devotee for the tiger.
Jin Riding Chief turned his head to the two Beiliang local women smiled: “The two girls are looking for a rest stop store, right? If you can trust, I know the other end of the street there is a pleasant stop inn, maybe there are still one or two rooms left, is the price is not cheap, can’t do anything, this moment still left in the hands of the inn house, are determined to ruthlessly slaughter people’s top class room. If the two girls still have enough money, you can consider it.”
The sword-wearing woman spread her face and smiled, “Old brother, thanks then.”
The Jinyi Cavalry Wu Chang glanced obliquely at the gang of ill-looking capital city rabbits and said softly to the two women, “I’ll give you a ride.”
Right at this moment, a tall young man beside Yan Se Embryo snorted out, “Northern Liang barbarians!”
The Jin Cavalry Captain who had already turned his horse’s head violently reined in his horse, rolled over and dismounted, and said to the other horse, “Horse Label, you guys take the two girls to the Yue Stop Inn first.”
This Wu Chang took off that light armor and Liang knife on his body and hung them both on his horse’s back, only then did he turn around and stare at the young man who had called them Northern Liang barbarians, his feet limping slightly forward, while saying, “I Tao oxcart took off my armor and Liang knife, so I won’t be counted as a Jin Cavalry rider on duty today.”
Tall young man tsked and laughed: “What, dead cripple, want to fight with me one on one? I’m afraid that if I accidentally use too much strength, I’ll break your other leg as well.”
The man surnamed Tao laughed, “Beating me to death is just counting on your ability.”
The tall youth hooked his finger.
The thatched hut not far from the Elephant Wash, Xu Fengyen was moving books and sunning them alone, suddenly that Youzhou lieutenant and the head of the water whisking room spies appeared together, squatting and spreading a book out Xu Fengyen looked up and smiled, “If there’s something to be done, just say it.”
The spy leader spoke very fast but spat out his words clearly, “Your Majesty, at the foot of the mountain to escape from the summer town, sixty-four Jin Riders and twenty-seven dead soldiers of the Water Flickers Room, and twenty-three people led by the young son of the Guangling Road’s Secretary of Strategy, Wang Yuanyuan, have started a confrontation. The cause is ……”
Xu Fengyen waved his hand and directly ordered the lieutenant, “Luo Hongcai, you go down the mountain and lead 500 riders to rush to Escape Summer Town, and don’t confront, just fight to the death.”
Xu Fengyen thought briefly and continued, “The other side should have quite a few expert guards, Sui Tieshan, then you draw out those four A-class house whisking water house dead soldiers currently on Wudang Mountain and go down the mountain with Lieutenant Luo.”
Luo Hongcai asked cautiously, “Your Majesty, really fight to the death?”
Xu Fengnian laughed, “That’s not going to work.”
Soon after, Xu Fengyen added, “Just beat him half to death, and when word gets out afterward, they’ll have to stick their thumbs up and say that our Northern Liang treats its guests with courtesy.”
The two left quickly.
Luo Hongcai rubbed his chin and said, “Old Sui, our prince is worthy of being a scholar, right?”
Sui Tieshan didn’t have the heart to say, “What’s the point of telling me, why didn’t you kiss this ass in front of the king just now?”
Luo Hongcai, who was striding forward, said with a blank stare, “Just tell me if it’s right?”
Sui Tieshan reached out and wiped his mouth with a smile, “That’s for sure!”
