Chapter Sixty-Nine: Lord Yang's Scholar I
Wanyan Xiyin pointed to the direction of Jinmen and asked Yang Yingqi why there was no city wall, Yang Yingqi said: "This place is backed by Dajin and faces the sea, as long as there are measures to guard against pirates, what do you want the city wall for." ”
Wanyan Xiyin said: "I saw that Yongning and other villages and towns all the way have no city walls, could it be that Daliao was so defenseless at the beginning?" ”
Yang Yingqi said with a smile: "When the Khitans ruled here, there were city walls, but I asked people to withdraw the stones and use them to build houses and roads. Although this peninsula is at the southern end of Daikin, it is close to the sea on three sides, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the rear of Daikin, and there are no foreign enemies around, so what do you want the city wall for? It is enough to have a fence to prevent theft. Besides, the people here are living quite well, and there is no problem with law and order for the time being. ”
Wanyan Xiyin nodded secretly when he heard this. Soon after returning to Huining, Ah Guda asked about the south, and Wanyan Xiyin said: "Southern Liaoning has become extremely rich now, but the price of grain is very high, and it seems that there is not enough to eat. In addition, there is no barrier from Tokyo to Tsumon, and the gate to the north is wide open. Even the city walls built by the original Khitans were removed. ”
Ah Gu asked the reason, Wanyan Xiyin took what Yang Yingqi said, and talked about the Guan Ning School, and said: "The richer the Han people, the weaker they are, and there is a reason for this. I lived in Nazhuxu Mountain for less than three days, and I felt comfortable all over, and I almost didn't want to go out of the mountain to ask about the world anymore. I heard that Ying Qi lived there for half a year, studying and teaching in the school all day, and the officials in Fuzhou, Chenzhou, and Kaizhou could not see him. ”
Ah Gu smiled and said, "Very good, very good, this kid is very sensible!" I said that he had a lot of other tributes, but he didn't have a grain of food, because they didn't have enough food there. He added: "But he is the deputy capital of southern Liaoning, how can he be so inactive!" So he sent an envoy to rebuke him of his efforts, and ordered him to go out of the mountain to take care of the government.
Wanyan Xiyin went out of the palace, and just saw Zhi Yanchong, who asked him about the recent situation in southern Liaoning, and Wanyan Xiyin said: "When I arrived, the market was still prosperous, but there seemed to be a bit of a shortage of food. In turn, he asked the Minister of State about the illness of Sagai.
Zhi Yan said: "Although his old man is sick, his complexion is still good, and he should be well now." ”
The two chatted a few more words, and then said goodbye. Zheyan rushed back to the West Village, and just saw the letter sent by Yang Yingqi, and couldn't help but be surprised when he opened it!
Not to mention why Zhi Yanchong was surprised, let's first say that the envoy of Aguta came to Jinmen but could not find Yang Yingqi, and even Lu Kezhong did not know the whereabouts of the seventh general. This envoy heard that Yang Kaiyuan was sitting in Jinmen instead of Yang Yingqi, so he came to inquire. Yang Kaiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm about to start playing!" When he told the reason, the messenger was shocked to hear this, and returned to Beijing to resume his life.
What did Yang Yingqi do? It turned out that the north wind was rising on this day, and Yang Pu was about to board the boat, and suddenly saw one more person beside him, who was dressed as a scholar, but looking at that face, who was Yang Yingqi? Yang Pu was shocked, pulled him aside and asked him what he was going to do.
Yang Yingqi said: "I'll go to Bianjing with you." ”
Yang Pu stared at his eyes in disbelief, and he had to endure it hard to keep from shouting: "Bianjing! You want to go to Bianjing with me? ”
"Hmm."
Yang Pu said unhappily: "Why didn't you discuss such a big matter with me before?" ”
Yang Yingqi smiled: "Don't be angry. In fact, I suddenly remembered that the entire mission knew me, so I decided to take a trip to Bianjing. ”
"But...... But ......" Yang Pu said: "You are leaving, what can you do in Liaonan?" ”
Yang Yingqi said: "Don't worry. I have already written to ask the third brother to come to the town, and he will be there tomorrow. Anyway, there is nothing big at the moment, Goryeo does not dare to come to attack, and Daliao is probably busy asking for peace. Even if there is any change, there is a second brother in Chenzhou, a fifth brother in Kaizhou, and Mr. Di and a sixth brother on the Anpo side to take care of - what kind of mess can happen? I've written to my eldest brother again, and he'll explain it to the lord for me. ”
Yang Pu knew that it was very inappropriate, but he couldn't say anything powerful for a while, he just said: "The sea route is dangerous, and this trip to the Great Song Dynasty is unpredictable!" If you have something, how can I afford it, General! ”
Yang Yingqi smiled: "What can't afford it!" My official is bigger than you, and I will naturally be responsible for it! As for the sea route, how far can it be from here to Dengzhou? If this bit of sea course also goes wrong, then my luck is too bad! ”
Yang Pu said again: "But in what capacity did you go to the Great Song Dynasty, General Seven?" The Seven Generals of the Han Division? Or is it the vice-capital of southern Liaoning? ”
Yang Yingqi smiled: "Of course not! Don't you know what I'm wearing? ”
Yang Pu opened his mouth wide again when he heard this: "Could it be ...... You're going to ......"
"That's right!" Yang Yingqi said: "From today on, I, Yang Geng, Yang Xiaoqi, am Lord Yang's scholar!" Don't call me General Seven along the way, just call me Little Seven. ”
"Little ...... Little Seven? Yang Pu couldn't cry or laugh on his face, but Yang Yingqi had already responded happily: "Here!" ”
After getting along in the past few years, the friendship between the two has been quite unusual, Yang Pu knows that although Yang Yingqi's actions are unexpected, he often has other deep meanings, and maybe this nonsense is also his "foresight". With such a mood, Yang Pu finally stopped objecting and took Yang Yingqi on the boat. There was another fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy waiting on the boat, Yang Pu felt slightly familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, only to hear Yang Yingqi say beside him: "This is your lost little scholar, called Lin Yi." Hehe, I'm Xiao Qi, a senior scholar who knows the way. ”
Yang Pu smiled helplessly, since Yang Yingqi had already planned it, what could he do?
This time, in addition to the accompanying clerks, there were also eighteen elites selected by Cao Guangbi, and the leader was a man named Xu Wen, who could make fifty catties of broadswords. This person was originally a nomad who sold illicit salt on the Shandong Peninsula, but after the opening of the port in Dengzhou, he wandered to Liaokou on a smuggling boat, formed gangs, and disturbed local public order. Cao Guangbi personally went out and convinced him. Xu Wen has been in Cao Guangbi's army for less than half a year, and he is not only advancing in martial arts, but also quite involved in the art of war. This time, Cao Guangbi considered that he was born as a hooligan in the Great Song Dynasty and was familiar with the affairs of the Great Song Dynasty, so he sent him to do this important thing. Xu Wen was also very grateful to Cao Guangbi for trusting him so much, and was determined to do his best to repay him.
Xu Wen grew up by the sea, so he knows a lot about water, but this time there was another person who escorted Yang Pu by sea, but it was a high pharmacist under Ouyang Shi. After Yang Pu got on the boat, Pharmacist Gao came to see him as usual. Xu Wen didn't recognize Yang Yingqi, but the high pharmacist did. Yang Yingqi didn't want too many people to know about this matter, and at this time, even Cao Guangbi and Ouyang Shi were kept in the dark, not to mention this high pharmacist, so as soon as he saw him, he turned around and pretended to pack up his things.
Yang Pu knew Yang Yingqi's intentions, and after asking some necessary matters, he sent the high pharmacist away.
The sea ship sails and has a smooth journey. Yang Yingqi used to just sit on Ouyang Shi's boat around the coast, this time he personally took the car and ship built by the Hanbu shipyard to go to sea, because the ship went steadily, he praised Ouyang Long very much, and said to Lin Yi: "How are our Hanbu cars and ships?" ”
Lin Yi said: "I have seen similar vehicles and boats in the rivers of the south of the Yangtze River, but it is the first time to make a sea boat. However, sailing on the sea still depends on the wind and waves, whether it is the boat or the oar, it only plays an auxiliary role. ”
Yang Yingqi suddenly became distracted when he heard this, and Lin Yi asked, "Seven generals...... Brother Seven, what are you thinking? ”
"Nothing...... I just suddenly remembered a kind of boat in my dream, even if you can travel thousands of miles a day against the wind, but unfortunately I am afraid that I will not be able to sit on it in this life. ”
