Chapter 22: Departure
"Bang", the big knife in Qiao Shan's hand fell to the ground, his tiger-like body was as graceful as an arrow from the string, a black shadow flashed on the martial arts field, Qiao Shan had already arrived in front of the thin eunuch, a pair of iron arms clamped the narrow shoulders of the eunuch, and said eagerly: "My sister is still alive, haha... She's alive, where is she? How's it going? How are you doing? Have you ever been bullied..."
The eunuch was pinched by him, and he called out: "General Qiao, light, the small body of the slave can't withstand General Qiao's tossing." ”
As he spoke, he took out a small note from his arms and handed it to Qiao Shan, and then he retreated in fear, afraid that Qiao Shan would be excited to break him up.
The note was wet, it should be a flying pigeon book, unfolded it, and saw a simple line of handwriting floating in front of him: "Brother Shan, I have found Sister Qiao Yue, she is in Ningzhou, she is in trouble!" See the letter coming quickly, Wang Yi. ”
"Haha... God lives up to me..."After staring at the note for a long time, Qiao Shan, who had never shed blood or tears, howled and cried: "The sky has eyes... My Qiao Shan's sister is still alive, haha... She's alive..."
Hearing the news of the eunuch, in fact, Liu Xiang was also very nervous, but because of the presence of guests, after all, as a prince, he couldn't lose an inch like Qiao Shan, and when he heard Qiao Shan's voice at this time, he felt a lot more relieved.
He smiled and said: "Let Lord Zhang see it, General Qiao's sister is missing, she has been looking for it for three years, and when she got the news today, she really cried with joy, which made the two adults laugh, speaking of which, this king has also received the grace of Qiao Yue's sister to save her life..."
Speaking of this, his dignified prince, his voice was a little choked, his eyes were red, and he couldn't help but think of the days when he and Qiao Yue were alone under the same roof, that time was pure, simple, there was no deceit, no fighting, no power struggle, rare calm, Liu Xiang will never forget the days for the rest of his life.
He still clearly remembered that Qiao Yue, a big girl, bathed him and cooked for him personally, she was desperately earning money outside, and he was guarding the fire and waiting for her to go home to cook, like a little couple who returned to the countryside.
It's a little funny to think of it, other people's families are all men who go out to earn money, and women who take care of the house, but when it is his turn and Qiao Yue's turn, they have changed their roles.
Over the years, Liu Xiang has always woken up from dreams, and in his dreams he always heard someone call him a "little thief", teaching himself not to be obsessed and to get lost.
She said that she should be careful in her life, the charcoal fire is burning, she will scold herself, she is very angry, the burning charcoal fire has to be pulled out, she is a button, after scolding, she will cook for herself carefully, she always thinks she is very funny, good people have done bad people.
No matter how hard life is, she always looks like she is giggling, strong, optimistic, brave, and still remembers the day he came back from Qizhou City, she said to him with a smile: "Daddy will never want his own children, good men are ambitious, as long as you don't be a thief in the future, I will take you in, hehe, you see I earned twelve copper plates today, you will follow me in the future to ensure that you don't starve to death." ”
……
He said to her, "In three years' time, if you are not married, I will have enough money to marry you." ”
……
She encouraged him: "Don't rob, don't steal, as long as you can come up with two taels of money, I will marry you." ”
……
Now that three years have passed, and my money has been paid, have you married another woman, or are you waiting for this king to come and take you?
Liu Xiang's eyes had become hazy unconsciously.
Zhang Meng is such a good person, Qiao Shan is out of shape, and Liu Xiang, who is the king of Huai, is also out of shape, it seems that the person they are looking for must have a very important position in their hearts.
He laughed out loud and livened up the atmosphere: "Where is the prince, General Qiao is a real man, we are all people who practice martial arts, the guns and swords are rained, even if the corpse is on the spot, I definitely don't snort, it's not that we are ruthless and cold-blooded, but this basket of hot tears, to the person who should flow..."
"It's just... It seems that General Qiao's sister is not an ordinary person. Zhang Chong stepped forward, and the outline of the knife was resolute: "General Qiao took a hundred horsemen deep into Luoyi Country last year, killed three in and three out, and was injured, how could he have seen him shout, the man has tears and does not flick, just because he is sad..."
"Haha..."Liu Xiang hugged his fists: "The man doesn't flick when he has tears, just because he hasn't reached the sad place, and General Zhang, who knows me, is also." ”
As he was talking, poof, Qiao Shan, who was still crying a hundred steps away just now, had already knelt on one leg in front of Liu Xiang with a bang, without hiding his tears, and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, my sister is in trouble, please allow the last general to go to Ningzhou, come and go in January." ”
"Difficult?" Liu Xiang's face tightened, and he hurriedly helped him up: "Where is General Qiao, Xiao Wang has to be rescued by your brother and sister, so that he can survive so far. ”
"Lord Wang!" Zhang Meng hurriedly stopped: "The prince left the fief without the permission of the emperor, if people know about it, it may be a big disaster." ”
Liu Xiang was anxious: "Ningzhou is not under the jurisdiction of your Lord Zhang, as long as I am careful, there should be no mistakes." ”
"Lord, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, now the form of the capital is complicated, the emperor's dragon body is not good, Liu Huan, the king of Qin, is attacking the prince, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Industry, all have ministers who have fallen off the horse, and the prince should not let people catch the handle at this time."
Zhang Meng said seriously, it can be seen that he is really thinking about Liu Xiang, it is really Liu Xiang's fief is in his jurisdiction, and he doesn't dare to make a little trouble at this time.
Liu Xiang was helpless, grabbed Qiao Shan's hand, his breath was short, and he burst into tears: "This king is incompetent, at this time, I can't repay your brother and sister for saving their lives, I, Liu Xiang, am weak and disabled, I can't share worries for my father's rule of the country, and I can't keep the peace of one side, and now the life-saving benefactor is in trouble, and I can't have the merit of making an inch, I am really a useless person, it is better to die in Qizhou on the same day..."
Liu Xiang's feelings are sincere, definitely motivated by feelings, there is no suspicion of pretentiousness at all, Zhang Meng and Zhang Chong's father and son are all people who practice martial arts, where can I see that Liu Xiang, who is the prince, is so pitiful.
Zhang Menghu's face sank, and he stepped forward and said: "Don't worry, Lord Wang, this time Zhang personally followed General Qiao, and he will definitely bring people safely." ”
"And me, the last general will go too." Zhang Chong's blood was up, and Mao recommended himself.
"In this way, then Xiao Wang can only ask the two adults."
Liu Xiang bowed deeply, feeling helpless, he couldn't go and rescue Qiao Yue from the sea of fire in person, at this time, he could only fake the hands of others, it was really useless, he clenched his fists fiercely, and secretly worked hard in his heart.
Qiao Shan thanks, at this time can not be hypocritical, there is a degree of moderation to make the adults come forward, it will definitely be a lot more convenient, Zhang Meng and his entourage already have a carriage, no need to prepare, immediately set off, go straight to Ningzhou.
