After such a small episode of the siege of Yanding, when everyone returned to Laizhouwei, it was already noon. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Gui, Nangong Yun, and Long Tianyang were left to register these people, but Ling Yun took his four entourages and went to the banquet in Qianhu Mansion under the strong invitation of Dong Qianhu.

After everyone was full of wine and food, they removed the leftovers on the table, and Dong Qianhu got straight to the point and said: "My lord, the matter of this personnel selection ......"

Ling Yun took a sip of hot tea and smiled: "I have always spoken and counted, this is two thousand taels of bills of exchange." However, there is still something to trouble Dong Qianhu in the future! ”

Dong Qianhu took the bill of exchange, his face was full of smiles, his eyes narrowed into a slit, he just stared at the bill of exchange tightly and nodded: "It's easy to say, if you have anything, just talk about it." ”

Ling Yun glanced around and said to Dong Qianhu: "After returning to the capital, I will ask the emperor for salt, and then send someone to buy it with five coins of silver per stone, as for the purchase of the problem, then there is Lao Dong Qianhu, as for how do you buy it?" As long as you are not too harsh on these military households, even if you only earn one penny of silver for a stone of salt, if you buy a million quintals every year, you can tell me, what kind of concept will it be! ”

Dong Qianhu can sit in this position safely, and he is by no means a fool, he immediately understands the benefits, with Lingyun's salt, there is no reselling of illicit salt, and the annual profit is not a little stronger than his own looting of these military households.

Just pondering for a moment, Dong Qianhu nodded without hesitation and said: "Your Excellency, just rest assured, the price given by your adult is also fair, and the lower official guarantees that the sea salt where several thousands of households are located around will be shipped here, but I don't know how often your adult will buy it." ”

Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, Ling Yun said: "It's a long way to go to the capital, and it will take about a month to toss back and forth, let's not say anything, we are like the time is tentatively set at two months, every two months, I will send someone to buy it, and I will collect as much as you have in these two months." ”

After hearing this, Dong Qianhu stood up and said to Ling Yun: "Since the adults look at it like this, the lower officials will definitely handle this matter......

As soon as the words fell, he ran into a family from outside the door and came to Ling Yun and Dong Qianhu, but he knelt on the ground and hugged his fists and said: "My lord, Zhang Dacai outside the door has already counted the number of people and sent a roster to the adult." ”

After Ling Yun listened, he glanced at Dong Qianhu and said, "That's it, then let's go out and have a look!" ”

When Ling Yun walked out of the Thousand Households Mansion, Zhang Guinan Gongyun and the others were already waiting outside the mansion, looking at Ling Yun who came out, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, the matter of registering and making a record has been completed. ”

Ling Yun glanced around, revealing a wry smile: "Let them prepare well, we will return to Beijing tomorrow!" ”

"Yes......"

Shengjing (Shenyang)

Since Aixinjue Luo Nurhachi moved the capital from Liaoyang to Shengjing, Shengjing is now the most prosperous capital of Houjin, with many shops on the streets, and men and women wearing Manchurian costumes in an endless stream.

Unexpectedly, Bai Jianfei appeared on the streets of Shengjing.

At this time, Bai Jianfei, dressed in the costume of the Eight Banners, led a vigorous Liaodong war horse and came to a mansion.

I saw that the mansion building in front of me was magnificent, the four red lacquered doors inlaid with copper nails were tightly closed, under the bluestone steps, there was a pair of majestic stone lions on both sides, the horse stone tied to the horse pile was cleaned very clean, and the two Eight Banner soldiers hung scimitars on their waists and stood straight around the gate. A plaque hangs above the gate with a zigzag Manchu script written on it.

However, Bai Jianfei was very familiar with this plaque, and muttered in his mouth: "National Teacher's Mansion ......"

The two soldiers of the Eight Banners standing guard saw someone walking up the steps, and hurriedly stepped forward and raised their hands, and said in Manchurian language: "This is the master of the country, and the idle people are not allowed to approach." (I don't know Manchu, even if I can say it, if I type it, there may be people who don't know it, so I will replace it with Chinese in the future.) ）

Bai Jianfei stretched out his hand into his arms, took out a gold medal engraved with Manchu script, and held it high and said, "I am a great disciple of the national teacher, take me to see the master quickly." ”

Looking at the gold medal in Bai Jianfei's hand, the two Eight Banner soldiers stood up straight, patted their sleeves with their left and right hands, stepped forward with their left leg, supported their knees with their left hands, lowered their right hands, and half-knelt with their right legs and said, "Chirp"

Without the slightest hindrance, Bai Jianfei was led by a soldier of the Eight Banners, walked through the corridor, walked through the garden, and came to the entrance of the central hall of the middle courtyard.

It seemed that Bai Jianfei was also familiar with this place, walked to the door of the middle hall and stopped, and handed the gold medal in his hand to a servant waiting at the door.

The servant took the gold medal with both hands, bent down and respectfully carried the gold medal into the nave.

After a while, I heard a deep and powerful voice from the middle hall: "Come in!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Bai Jianfei untied the saber at his waist and walked in respectfully.

Entering the middle hall, Bai Jianfei didn't look around, but just walked towards a small door on the right.

The cottage was not large, and there was no furnishings, as there were no windows in the walls, and the light in the room was a little dim.

I saw that in the small black room, there was a rosewood bed against the wall, and on the bed sat cross-legged an old man with a white beard, a thin face, and a very simple Confucian robe, with his eyes closed, breathing evenly, his hands on his legs, and two ice balls condensed in his palms, and the whole room was cold.

Bai Jianfei didn't look up, just bent down and bowed his head respectfully to the bed, knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times and said, "Disciple to meet the master." ”

At this time, the old man slowly opened his eyes, there was no trace of emotion in his tone, an expression of displeasure, no anger, and he asked very calmly: "What is the matter with this visit?" It's still some time before you deliver food and silver, so why are you here now? ”

Bai Jianfei didn't even dare to raise his head, and said a little nervously: "Master...... According to the teacher, the disciple's dart games in the customs have been closed......"

"What?"

Hearing this, the old man's eyes widened, his face was gloomy, and he said sharply: "Waste, if it weren't for the fact that you still have the value of use, how would this seat accept you as an apprentice?" ”

"The master forgives the sins, the master forgives the sins, the reason why the disciples close the dart games and shops everywhere is because they are forced to do so, and I hope that the master will give the disciples another chance." Bai Jianfei kowtowed to the old man again and again.

The old man raised his hand and pointed at Bai Jianfei, his lips trembled with anger: "The various businesses in the Guannan are the foundation of supporting the Great Khan to compete for the world, if there is no support from the first Khan and the Great Khan, how can you be today, if you can't say why today, you have no need to stay, just let your senior brother Tu Keduo take over everything for you!" (The first khan refers to Nurhachi, and the Great Khan refers to Huang Taiji)

"Master is gracious, master is gracious, please allow the disciple to be careful ......"

……

Bai Jianfei told the old man word for word everything from the competition for the life-chasing sword score to the way back to the capital from Huangzhuang to the battle between himself and Ling Yun.

However, after listening to Bai Jianfei's words, the old man's eyes narrowed slightly and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, the old man muttered to himself: "Impossible, although my Kunlun ancestor was defeated in the hands of Shaolin and Wudang, but with your strength, if you talk about fighting alone, the entire Central Plains martial arts even Shaolin Zhishan Master, Wudang Purple Void Dao Master may not be able to defeat your Xuanbing True Qi, and how can you lose to a person who has just debuted?" ”

Immediately afterwards, the old man, no, Kunlun Ancestor's face changed and said: "If it weren't for your father who saved my life in the valley twenty years ago, how would this seat have accepted you as an apprentice?" The Kunlun Xuanbing Palm in this seat is enough for you to dominate the martial arts, but you want to grab the shit's life-chasing sword spectrum, and now that the Great Khan is bad, what use is it for you? ”

After finishing speaking, the true qi in Kunlun Ancestor's hand condensed, and a layer of frost gradually appeared, and his eyes stared coldly at Bai Jianfei.

Bai Jianfei was trembling with fright, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Master Kaigen, please give the disciple another chance, it's not that the disciple is incompetent, but that Ling Yun doesn't know what adventures he encountered?" In just a few months, he has practiced a body of Zhigang to Yang skills, and he has learned Shaolin seventy stunts, and now he is a celebrity next to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, for the sake of the Great Khan's grand plan to dominate, the disciple did not dare to use excess manpower, this time, I just want to ask the master to arrange someone to get rid of Ling Yun, as long as Ling Yun dies, all the business in the pass can return to normal, even if the weather emperor tracks down, it will not find the disciple's head......"

After listening to Bai Jianfei's words, Kunlun Ancestor gradually reined in his true qi, and instantly regained his tranquility and said: "In this case, this seat will give you another chance, and let your senior brother Tu Keduo accompany you to the Guannai to solve Lingyun." ”

"Thank you Master for your kindness......"

Kunlun Ancestor got out of bed at this time, slowly stood up and said: "The Great Khan has captured Korea, and Yue Qiluan said to the Great Khan: Now Yuan Chonghuan is implementing the "recovery plan" in Jinzhou, that is, "guarding the Liao land with the Liao people, and raising the Liao people with the Liao land." He repaired the city and tuntian, used the tun to raise the war, and "the defense is the right, and the war is the wonder", and he is thinking about how to defend the Eight Banners Army from advancing into the Ming Dynasty. ”

After a pause, Kunlun Ancestor continued: "Now that the Great Khan has trained 50,000 elite horsemen, he is preparing to send troops to Jinzhou under Yue Qiluan's performance, Ning Yuan, after you go back this time, you will hoard a large amount of grain and grass for the needs of the Great Khan's troops. ”

"Yes, yes......"

Bai Jianfei knelt on the ground and nodded his head repeatedly, but suddenly remembered one thing in an instant, so he hurriedly said to Kunlun Ancestor: "By the way, master, Lingyun made a flying artifact that can carry people to fly in the sky, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse was happy and added Lingyun as the commander of the Flying Eagle Guard, and now, Lingyun is selecting soldiers from all over the country to form an army that can fly in the sky." ”

After hearing this, Kunlun Ancestor grabbed Bai Jianfei's collar and said, "Now that the Great Khan is preparing to send troops to Ning Jin, the Emperor of the Apocalypse Dog has actually formed such a team, what does this flying thing look like?" ”

Bai Jianfei said a little timidly: "Master...... Master, I heard from the people who witnessed Lingyun flying in the sky that day that this thing is similar to the Mo family's flying kite, flying hundreds of zhang high, and since the test flight, the Emperor of the Apocalypse has blocked all news. ”

After hearing this, Kunlun Ancestor pondered for a long time and said: "Don't tell anyone about this matter, you quickly take Tu Keduo to assassinate Ling Yun in the Guannei first, and by the way, get your hands on the production method of the flying thing." If the Great Khan's attack on Ning Jin is successful, he will send someone to deliver a message to you, and there will be no mistake in setting off immediately. ”

"Yes, master."

After Bai Jianfei withdrew, Kunlun Ancestor looked at the ceiling and fell into deep thought: "The Hundred Schools of Princes have disappeared for thousands of years, why did the flying kite manufacturing technique in the Mo family's mechanism fall into the hands of a tomb robber, could it not be dug out of the ground?" No, you must quickly show the Great Khan, lest the long night dream be too bad for the Great Khan! ”

Speaking of this, Kunlun Ancestor walked out of the small black house and said: "Prepare a sedan chair to enter the palace......"
