Chapter 8 A Strong Man Saves Beauty

Fuyou and Zhao Guards returned to Shengjing City from Longyun Temple, and on a street not too far from the palace, they saw a horse pulling a carriage with a gorgeous canopy galloping in their direction. Fuyou said, "Not good! The horse was shocked! There must be someone in the car! Quick, we'll stop it! Without waiting for the Zhao guards to say anything, they rushed forward. Guards Zhao also followed, and he saw a handlebar type that fell to the ground far behind the car, and several servants were chasing after him. shouted in panic all the way: "Old lady! Old lady! Be careful! ”

Fuyou shouted to the panicked pedestrians as he ran: "Don't panic, everyone, pull aside!" Then he said to Zhao Guard, "I'll get close to the carriage and hold it, you can get on the carriage and hold the person down", and the two of them approached the car very neatly. That's when the accident happened: something on the road got in the way under the wheels, the body was turned upside down, and then stopped for a moment, and the inertia caused a man in the car to be thrown out, and if he fell under the horse's buttocks, it would be too dangerous, and it would be easy to be trampled by the horse's hooves. I saw Fuyou rush up with an arrow step and catch the person, because the momentum was too great, when the person was being held, Fuyou was also hit by him and couldn't stand, he took several steps back, tripped under his feet, and fell down on his back. Hit your head on the hard ground, buzz to the ground, and you don't know anything. Guard Zhao had already jumped onto the car, grabbed the reins of the horse, and took it into his arms, and the horse honestly did not move.

As soon as the car stopped, there was movement in the car, a woman's cry, and then the curtain was lifted, and a well-dressed old lady cried loudly: "Xiu'er, my child! Where are you? Did you fall? Let grandma see! Immediately after, another old man with a beard came out, about sixty years old, very imposing, and his expression was also very anxious: "Xiu'er! Embroidery! When he saw the Zhao guard, he realized that it was this young man who pulled the carriage, which was equivalent to saving his old couple. Hurriedly thanked him: "Oh, young man! Thanks to you, the old man has thanked you! ”

Guard Zhao hurriedly returned the salute: "You're polite, let's take a look at the person who fell." He jumped out of the car first, then picked up the two old men and came to see Brother Fuyou. I saw that it was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who knocked Fuyou down, with an extremely beautiful appearance, squatting there, guarding Fuyou helplessly, and the man who wanted to push and faint was embarrassed. Fortunately, Zhao Guard, her grandfather, and grandmother all came. Only then did the Zhao guards find that Brother had fallen unconscious, so they hurriedly picked up his upper body and shouted, "Master! Master! What's wrong with you? Don't scare your subordinates! Wake up! ”

The girl who was called "Xiu'er" by the two old men blushed and said to her grandfather: "This person saved Xiu'er, otherwise Xiu'er wouldn't have gotten better if she fell." ”

The old man said: "Yes, yes, thanks to this strong man, it seems that the fall is not light!" This young man, you have to carry him to the car, in front of him is the old man's house, there is Langzhong in the house, hurry up! ”

Zhao guards could only obey. He carried Fuyou to the car with great difficulty, and at this time, he was thrown under the car and rubbed his ass and limped here, and several maids and maids behind him also ran out of breath. The old man and the old lady got into the car again with the support of the subordinates.

Guard Zhao hugged Fuyou and continued to call: "Master! Master! Wake up! ”

The old man touched Fuyou's head, knocked a bag on the back of his head on the left side, checked his pulse again, and said with certainty: "According to the old man, it doesn't matter, my brain was shocked." I'll be at home right away. ”

Fortunately, the old man's house is really not far away, everyone got Fuyou into a room, and Lang Zhong also arrived in time, looked at the injury, rolled his eyelids, checked the pulse, and then Lang Zhong said: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way!" I was shocked, and I woke up right away. "Everyone is relieved.

The old lady felt that the Zhao guards were very familiar, and looked up and down carefully for a while: "You young man is not Zhao ......"

Guard Zhao raised his eyes to look at the old lady, and also felt a little kind, just at this moment Fuyou woke up, opened his eyes, he had forgotten what had happened. Except for Zhao Guard, I didn't know anyone.

"Master, wake up! Frightened my subordinates! Guard Zhao let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the young man who rescued his granddaughter woke up and sat up, everyone was relieved. The old man pulled his granddaughter over: "Xiu'er, hurry, give a gift to the life-saving benefactor." ”

Miss Xiu'er stepped forward and gave a salute: "Thank you for the rescue!" ”

Fuyou immediately blushed: "Don't, don't, what is this, it should be." Old-timers, bother! Guard Zhao, let's go back. "He has been in the temple for more than ten years, and he has practiced martial arts, and he has never had contact with girls at all, so he is very uncomfortable.

"Wait!" The old lady remembered and said to the old man: "If the old man remembers correctly, this guard should be the one who served by the Great Khan's side!" Then the strong man who rescued Xiu'er was ......"

Guard Zhao also remembered, and hurriedly bowed his hand: "It's very disrespectful, it turns out that this is the mansion of Commander Tong." The subordinate master is the second elder brother of the Great Khan who has recently returned from Longyun Temple."

When the old man Tong heard this, he hurriedly greeted him, no matter how big the official is, he is also a minister in front of his elder brother, and he wants to perform the courtesy of a monarch and a minister. Fuyou hurriedly caught it: "Lord Tong can't be so polite, Fuyou is young and can't afford it,"

The old lady laughed: "Why did you say that our family of three entered the palace?" She looked at Fuyou, and then at her granddaughter, and the girl woke up suddenly, and immediately blushed, glanced at Fuyou hurriedly, turned around, and went out. The old lady continued: The Great Khan pointed out our embroidery to the second elder brother, and we were thinking about how to meet the second elder brother, and this son-in-law came to the door, a good thing, a good thing! ”

Although Fuyou people are old and simple, their minds are very smart, and they immediately understood what the old lady meant, and suddenly blushed: "Fuyou has caused trouble to the two old people, thank you here!" Guard Zhao, let's go back to the palace and say goodbye! ”

The old lady knew that Brother Ah was embarrassed, so she didn't stop her, and watched with a smile as the blessed master and servant were sent out of the door by the old man.

Speaking of this Tong commander, it was the founding hero of the Qing Dynasty, when Taizu ** Hachi thirteen pairs of armor raised troops, his family was a huge rich man in Liaodong, and he attached himself to Taizu without knowing whether Taizu could succeed, and handed over most of the family property to Taizu as military resources. Now the son of the commander has inherited the title and guarded the border with his wife, and the old lady and the old man stayed in Shengjing to enjoy their old age. At the same time, he left his only daughter Jinxiu with the second elder to relieve his loneliness. This old lady is the cousin of Taizu ** Hachi, she is a Gege, and she is a blessed aunt and grandmother in terms of seniority, so Xiu'er is also his cousin, and the blood relationship is not very close.

On the way back to the palace, Guard Zhao introduced the situation to Fuyou, and told SΓΉ Fuyou that Miss Tong is quite an outstanding person, not only beautiful, very virtuous, but also a famous talented woman. She knows the rhythm of music and can compose music, and she can't play the guzheng and pipa. Because of its stunning beauty, it has the nickname of "Saiyuhuan". The rest of the chess skills and needlework are very good. How many sons of powerful families asked for employment, but they were all rejected by the old couple Tong. Because the Great Khan has an order, Tong Jinxiu's marriage must be decided by him, and it seems that the Great Khan has long had this plan. After muttering for a long time and not hearing back from Brother, Zhao Guard asked:

"Master, are you still not satisfied with such a girl?"

Fuyou said: "It's not that I'm not satisfied, it's that I'm afraid that people won't be satisfied." What's so surprising about me? But a monk. ”

"What did you say? You are now Brother, the most honorable person! If your achievements are particularly great, it is unknown whether you will be canonized as a prince or prince in the future, or even inherit the throne! ”

Fuyou said, "Don't say anything like that again!" I really have to come back, the monk deserves to be good, come back and suffer. If it weren't for Elder Zhengming saying that he had made an agreement with my father Khan, I would have been vulgar when I was eighteen years old, and I would never have thought about entering the palace as an elder brother. You don't know how comfortable a monk is! There was nothing to worry about. Now well, get a girl with a beautiful face to be my daughter-in-law, I really don't know ......"

Zhao Guard laughed: "Your master is different from others, people are crazy when they see beautiful women, you are okay, but you are still worried." ”

"No, look at that splendid girl, she must have read a book, and she is the granddaughter of the leader, a typical lady. What am I? Let me tell you, I am a rough man who has never read a book for a day, and I recognize a few words from the scriptures, and I don't recognize them without the scriptures. What else will you do except know how to punch and kick three or two feet? Isn't it poisoning other people's girls? ”

"Don't blame your subordinates for refuting your words, no matter how rough you are, you are also the second elder brother of the son of the Great Khan, and no matter how high his family background is, he is also a courtier. What is poison? If you can like her, it's her creation. Don't underestimate yourself, you are Brother! ”

"What's wrong with Brother? Isn't it also a head on your shoulders? There's a mouth on the top of the head, and it's not very capable. Why is Father Khan in such a hurry? I just came back, and I haven't even learned the rules well, what kind of daughter-in-law should I marry? Can people look up to me? ”

"You're weird, you still haven't figured out who you are. You are the son of Tian Khan, other elder brothers married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, you are eighteen years old, can the Great Khan not be in a hurry? Aren't you afraid that Miss Tong will be married by someone else? Some time ago, my subordinates also heard that the general Ao Bai asked the Great Khan to marry Miss Tong to him, but was blocked by the Great Khan, and this is the Great Khan to keep for you. Maybe we can go back and prepare for a happy event, and our subordinates will have to drink your wedding wine seriously. ”

"You're talking too fast, aren't you? Before the eight characters were skimmed, they drank the wedding wine, really. ”

"The master is shy? The big man is still blushing like a girl? Guard Zhao happily joked with his master.

"I won't tell you, I thought you were serious, and when it comes to getting married and liking wine, it's not a problem at all."

"You're so strange, it's natural for you to get married and drink wine, what's in the way? Subordinates are also people who have been married, and getting married is one of the four joys of life. ”

"People are born to endure hardship, birth, old age, sickness and death are all suffering, where are the four great joys? Tell me about it. ”

"These four great pleasures are the night of candles in the cave room, the old acquaintance in another country, the long drought and the rain, and the title of the gold list."

"I don't think so, the candles in the cave room are very lively, but if you see the bride or groom in the new room and see that the other party is an unsatisfactory person, it is not a pleasure. And the title of the gold list is not a happy thing, but I was happy at the time and was on the list. But after ten years of hard study, how many decades are there in a person's life? The title of the gold list is that there is a chance to become an official, but after becoming an official, there are many troubles. There is no oil and water when you are a clean official, and there is a possibility of being a corrupt official at any time. I have to work hard to try cases, review official documents, inspect the scene, and fight openly and secretly with colleagues. But not everyone can be successful and have a future. Even if you don't commit a crime, you can be dragged into the water by someone. ”

Zhao Yong laughed: "Master, you can really do it, you, a man who has been a monk, understand the world better than his subordinates." ”

"I'm not one of them. There is a saying called bystander Qing, I have been a monk for many years, and it is not that I have no connection with the world. For example, we often go out to make fate, just to eat, who can't touch it? Who don't deal with? ”

"These arguments of yours are really unusual, but my subordinates think they make a lot of sense. But don't refuse the Great Khan's marriage, that's a holy decree, and resisting the decree is a crime of beheading. Don't look at you as a brother, and you can't resist the will. Besides, wouldn't it be a pity that you refused such a good girl? ”

Fuyou was speechless. He knew that what Zhao Yong said was right, he had already escaped from the empty door, and he could not disobey his father Khan's arrangement. How did he know that his marriage was a bargaining chip to win over the ministers, and Commander Tong was the founding father, and the marriage with his family must be the son of the Great Khan to show his attention. Huang Taiji may have had this arrangement a long time ago, and did not agree to the request of the general Aobai, of course, this is the reason, with his son and the minister to marry, the minister will be more loyal to his life, this truth is simply unthinkable.
