In Yi Ming Pavilion, the storyteller finally appeared after the little fourth son ate a piece of macaroon.

The old man looked like he was in his sixties, lean and lean, and he looked quite funny, with a mustache crooked shoulders and a small red paper fan in his hand. Sure enough, the opening was a hilarious joke.

Ye Zhiqiu and Lin Yehuo, two people who had never seen the world, pounded the table and a stool, and laughed and trembled.

Xiao Liangzi and Xiao Sizi looked at the two completely unreliable adults with disgust, Luo Ying was obviously more stable than Lin Yehuo and Ye Zhiqiu combined, and looked at the two adults who didn't look like adults at all with a smile and tears. And Luo Yuan was still a little stunned, she couldn't understand in many places, and tilted her head to look at the people who were smiling.

The storyteller's master happily patted the wood and said with a smile, "The little old man's surname is Fan, and everyone calls me Master Fan." ”

"What are you talking about today, old man?" Some tea customers followed.

The old man smiled, "As long as it's a matter of the rivers and lakes, there is no old man, I don't know what to hear?" ”

"I want to hear the story of Yin Hou and Tianzun!"

I don't know who shouted loudly.

So many people followed suit and said they wanted to hear it.

The old man smiled and waved his hand, "If you want to talk about that, you can't finish talking about it for three days and three nights...... Besides, old man, my age is only half that of Tianzun and Yin Hou, how can the juniors talk about the seniors? You don't believe me either, do you? ”

"Then tell me who is the most powerful in the rivers and lakes today?"

The old man then shook his head, "This old man is going to offend people when he says it, I don't know how to do kung fu, disaster comes from the mouth, and trouble comes from the mouth!" ”

Hearing him say this, Lin Yehuo and Ye Zhiqiu both looked up at the old man - although this old man said that he didn't know kung fu, he should actually know kung fu, and ...... I don't know what the road is for, I always feel that my heart is not right.

At this time, a person suddenly raised his hand, "Is there anything about the Nine Princes Zhao Pu?" ”

The old man pointed to the tea guest, "Oh? This guest knows the goods! ”

"The Ninth Lord has fought a lot of battles, right?" Someone asked, "Are there any famous battles?" ”

"Speaking of this battle, the Nine Princes don't look at their young age, but they have experienced a hundred battles, and a hundred battles are like divine help, if you talk about famous battles, three are particularly famous! And which of these three games won the most beautiful one, does anyone know the way? ”

The tea guests discussed that Zhao Pu had indeed fought a lot of battles, and most of these people knew a few battles, but what was the most famous......

During the discussion, I saw the little fourth son stretch out his hand and said, "The battle of Caowei Valley." ”

Everyone listened to the soft and cute voice of this glutinous rice candy, and they knew that it must be the little fourth son who spoke.

The old man tilted his head, looked at the little four, touched the beard on his chin and laughed, "This little young master is very knowledgeable, the battle of Caowei Valley only used a few hundred people to destroy tens of thousands of enemy troops, it is indeed a classic among the classics." ”

Many tea drinkers had never heard of this battle, so they talked about it.

Bao Yan held his chin and said, "The battle of Caowei Valley is not only a wonderful but also a key battle, and that battle basically laid the situation in the northwest border!" ”

"If it's so exciting, let's take that battle!" Many tea drinkers said they wanted to hear it.

The old man smiled and nodded, "Then let's talk about the battle of Caowei Valley......"

It's just that before Fan Fuzi could speak, he heard a cool voice interrupt, "Zhao Pu occupies the right time and place, and he has a heavy army, plus the older generation helped him fight well, and it coincides with the continuous weakening of the internal fighting between Liao and Western Xia, isn't it the most normal thing to win?" Even if it wasn't Zhao Pushang, any other Song general would not lose if he led the troops. ”

Xiao Sizi blinked, turned his face to look at the person who spoke, Xiao Liangzi's eyes narrowed, and he pouted - who said bad things about his master?

Pang Yuda was not very interested since just now, and when he heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his face was disgusted.

Bao Yan also looked at the sky......

Who is the person who is speaking?

The table where he was talking at this time was also full of people, all of them well-dressed, including literati and Jianghu people.

The person who said the cool thing just now was a young man, still wearing a student robe who was too studied, and he looked quite white, not as gentle as an ordinary scholar, but like Pang Yu, with a bit of a boy's atmosphere. Taixue's students are either talented and beautiful or official eunuchs, and this may also have some background.

Lin Yehuo held the teacup and asked Bao Yan, "Who?" ”

Bao Yan lowered his voice and said, "King Qiaojun's grandson, the eldest grandson Qi." ”

Lin Yehuo blinked, and he couldn't understand what this King Qiao Jun was, but it sounded like he should be a relative of the emperor.

"King Joejun...... Qiao Zishan? Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously.

Bao Yan nodded, Pang Yu was a little surprised, "Yo, you actually know the way?" ”

"Yes." Ye Zhiqiu asked, "Isn't it quite famous?" ”

"It's quite famous, Qiao Zishan originally had heavy soldiers, but after being participated in by the Taishi, he was demoted from a real power prince to an idle prince, and he might not have been able to save his life, but fortunately, his daughter married into the eldest grandson's family and became the daughter-in-law of the eldest grandson Lin." Bao Yan said, "The eldest grandson Lin is the personal guard of the first emperor, and he also saved the emperor's life. ”

Lin Yehuo smacked his lips with a teacup, a little curious, "What did Qiao Zishan do?" ”

"Embezzlement of military salaries and delay of fighter planes." Bao Yanbian flattened his mouth, "The evidence is conclusive. ”

Lin Yehuo raised his eyebrows, isn't that a capital crime, and then touched Pang Yu with his elbow in some gossip, "Your father is also idle enough, shouldn't this kind of thing be played by adults?" Why did your dad come forward? What's the grudge? ”

Pang Yu pouted and looked at Lin Yehuo, "Why do you say that my father is like this?" ”

The rest of the crowd looked at him with a frown - you don't do this! Taishi is not profitable and can't afford to be early, he will take the risk of offending people to participate in the performance, it should be a matter related to his vital interests!

Pang Yu sighed and looked at his father's character......

The little marquis was helpless and said, "The daughter of Qiao Zishan's family, that is, the elder sister of Changsun Qi, Changsun Yi, is very beautiful, and she is the same age as my sister." In the early years, she always went in and out of the palace, and the original Empress Liu liked her very much. ”

Everyone said "oh~", it is clear that Master Pang is helping his daughter to find a rival.

"And then?" Ye Zhiqiu was curious, "What happened to that eldest grandson girl?" ”

"She, what, married to the Uighurs." Pang Yu took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

The crowd's eyes widened.

Ye Zhiqiu was surprised, "Was it sent to kiss?" ”

"Nope!" Pang Yu hurriedly shook his head, "People are interested in the little prince of the Uighurs, who ran away with him, and now it is said that he is living a good life, and he has given birth to several children." ”

Lin Yehuo touched his chin, "But Qiao Zishan definitely doesn't think so, she finally gave birth to such a beautiful girl, she could have been a queen, but she didn't expect to be stirred up by the Taishi and went to Fanbang...... It's just that Concubine Pang is still favored now. ”

"Tsk." Everyone shook their heads and looked at Pang Yu, "It turned out to be a feud, and the grudge is very deep." ”

Pang Yu sighed and held his chin.

Bao Yan also nodded, and whispered, "It's okay for the eldest grandson to say that he is a civil and military all-rounder, he used to look down on this little crab the most, but later Pang Yu entered Taixue, he made trouble for him every day, a dead enemy!" ”

Pang Yu wrinkled his nose and shook his head at everyone, "When the young master used to be a gentleman for a while, he would occasionally fight with him, but didn't he pay attention to him recently, and he didn't bother to pay attention to him." ”

Bao Yan thought it was funny and teased Pang Yu, "When you used to be a gentleman, people didn't fight with you for a while, what did you call it......"

As he spoke, Bao Yan asked the little fourth son.

The little fourth son stretched out his little hand and pointed at Pang Yu, "Eliminate harm for the people!" ”

"Poof." Lin Yehuo was so happy that the tea squirted out, and Pang Yu couldn't cry or laugh, scratching his chin.

Fan Fuzi was about to speak, but was interrupted by two sneers from the eldest grandson Qi, so he smiled and said, "This young master is not right, what Zhao Pu got is not a pie smashed from the sky, but a mess, several generals in the previous dynasty, Qiao Zishan is greedy, Fang Jie is crazy, Xu Seyong, Liao Cai is lazy, and Qian Juexun is even more traitorous to seek glory." More than half of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses have no combat effectiveness, military spending is small, materials are insufficient, internal and external troubles are worried, and the emperor is young, and the neighbors all want to take advantage of the situation, which can be described as full of dangers. In addition, there is one thing you are also wrong, it is not that Liaoxia lost to Zhao Pu because of the internal fighting in Liaoxia, but because it was beaten by several battles, and it turned from prosperity to decline. ”

The tea guests all nodded and agreed with Fan Fuzi's opinion, and at the same time, there were many people who gloated about the eldest grandson.

Kaifeng City is so big, the people on the scene know each other, the eldest grandson Qi is also a little prince, and the locals know what he is about.

Fan Fuzi probably came from other places, so I don't know that this is the grandson of Qiao Zishan who he just said "greedy".

Sure enough, Eldest Sun Qi's face became worse and worse.

There were a few people sitting at the same table with the eldest grandson, two of them were dressed as scholars, Bao Yan and Pang Yu both knew each other, and they were Taixue's classmates. In fact, Taixue is also similar to the general ancestral hall study, a few people who want to be good are always mixed together, these people are all friends of Changsun Qi, there are talented people and eunuchs, seeing that Changsun Qi is angry, his face is naturally not good.

The others were dressed as pure martial artists, and their eyes looking at Fan Fuzi were also a little dangerous.

Many tea guests present sweated for the old man, saying that the old man was going to be unlucky.

However, Changsun Qi's face softened slightly, and he waved his hand to a few people around him, signaling that it was okay, and continued to drink tea with a teacup.

Pang Yu and Bao Yan glanced at each other - Eldest Sun Qi took the wrong medicine today, so easy to talk? On weekdays, this person can be careful!

It's just that this Fan Fuzi didn't know if Lu Dao was deliberate, and he smiled and began to talk about the evil deeds of Qiao Zishan and Fang Jie back then, which was called a painting and color.

Everyone present opened their mouths wide with their teacups, and the same thought flashed through their minds - something is going to happen!

Just when Eldest Sun Qi's face turned completely dark, the old man suddenly changed his words, "Speaking of the Battle of Drafting Tail Valley, there is a rumor, I don't know if you have heard of it?" ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and finally ......

"Legends?" Bao Yan also felt that it was not good to say that the elders were bad in front of others, so he hurriedly helped to change the conversation, "What legend?" ”

"Caowei Valley is the terrain of the valley, two mountains and a ditch, Zhao Pu created a beast trap formation, trapping the enemy in the valley and not entering or leaving, just like a beast caught in the trap of a beast." Fan Fuzi shook his head and said.

The tea guests listened with relish, Ye Zhiqiu ate peanuts, and asked the little fourth son curiously, "What is the beast clamping array?" ”

Xiao Sizi tilted his head, he pestered Zhao Pu and those lieutenant generals to tell him stories about the war, among which the battle of Caowei Valley was told to him by He Yihang. He Yihang said very clearly, Xiao Sizi doesn't remember what kind of beast trap formation there is. He only remembered that the Grass Tail Valley was overgrown with weeds, and there were many, many fireflies, and Zhao Pu used the fireflies and wolves to win the battle, which was particularly interesting.

"The terrain of the Grass Tail Valley is narrow, and the valley is not particularly large." At this time, a scholar asked, "What magical formation did Zhao Pu use to trap so many people?" ”

Fan Fuzi smiled, "Speaking of this beast trap array, it's amazing!" Legend has it that the Beast Clamp Array is the first of the four evil arrays, and it is said that the ......blood of a hundred black dogs must be used before using it.

"Poof......

This time it was Lin Yehuo who sprayed tea, and the fire phoenix's eyebrows were raised, and he squinted his eyes and asked the little fourth son, "Zhao Puzhen slaughtered a hundred black dogs?" ”

Xiao Sizi pouted, "How is it possible!" Ninety-nine will not kill dogs! ”

"Zhao Pu did win some battles unbelievably, it turned out that there was a witch Gu to help." Eldest Sun Qi sneered, "Witchcraft harms others and oneself, although the war is won, but it is easy to attract natural disasters**." ”

An old man dressed as a Taoist priest beside Changsun Qi also nodded, "Misfortune and misfortune are passed on, and it is inevitable that you will encounter setbacks in the future, but it is unknown whether you are punished by God or passed on to others." ”

The tea guests all talked about it privately, although it was a bit unkind to say this, but Zhao Pu was indeed too magical, where was there a teenager who led troops to fight and was invincible? Very suspicious indeed! Other than that...... Zhao Pu himself looks very weird, the color of the two eyes is different, and his biological mother is a foreigner, and it is said that that the tribe originally produced a witch.

Xiao Sizi's face turned red, and he felt that everyone was saying bad things!

At this moment, I heard Luo Ying suddenly say, "The battle of Caowei Valley will be won, it is completely because of fireflies, and it has nothing to do with any witchcraft." ”

Her voice was crisp and her voice was also loud, and the tea guests turned their heads one after another, and even Fan Fuzi touched his beard and looked at her, "Fireflies? ”

Luo Ying said, "Caowei Valley is overgrown with weeds and fireflies, Zhao Pu did use more than a hundred dogs and wolves, but it was not used to take blood and sacrifice to the sky, but to match the light of fireflies, disguised as a super-large wolf pack composed of tens of thousands of wolves to surround the valley, so that the enemy's horses were in chaos." There was a ditch between the two mountains in Caowei Valley, and it was dark and there was no moonlight, so the enemy chose a road without fireflies to escape. didn't know that this road was created by Zhao Pu with insect repellent drugs, and there were all traps underneath. Originally, Zhao Pu could have won a big victory, as long as he set fire to the valley, but he didn't do it, first, he felt that there was no need to kill so many people, and secondly, he could only die if he burned those fireflies in Caowei Valley. Although Zhao Pu looks vicious, as long as you carefully study the battles he has fought, you will find that he is kind-hearted and hates killing. Would such a man pass on the misfortune to others for the sake of constant victory? Don't have a villain's heart! In addition, regarding Chang Sheng, Zhao Pu's life number is excellent, and any reliable fortune teller who criticizes his eight characters will deduce that this person has a smooth life. The difference in color of the two eyes is actually a sign of destiny, just like Lord Bao's dark complexion and moon-shaped scar on his forehead! As for his biological mother's tribe, they are nomads in the north of the Western Regions, and they don't give birth to witches, so don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! As he spoke, he pointed at Master Fan, "You listen to the accent and the Taoist priest over there is very similar, and the shoes you both wear are the same, there are two purple-fingered Taoist priests on the rivers and lakes who often pretend to be storytellers and storytellers to sing and cooperate in blackmail, and what they like to do the most is to collect money from people and slander others, and the characteristic is that the nails of the left hand and tail finger are purple!" Do you want to stretch out your little fingers to compare? ”

As soon as Luo Ying finished speaking, everyone saw that the Taoist priest and Fan Fuzi subconsciously retracted their hands into their sleeves.

"Purple!" A few sharp-eyed tea customers saw it and began to coax.

"It turned out to be a liar!"

"Damn, spread rumors and slander the Nine Princes!"

The shopkeeper and his men of Yi Mingge hurriedly came to pick up people, and all the tea customers poked and poked, all suspecting that the two storytellers were brought by Changsun Qi.

The eldest grandson Qi put down the silver tael, glanced at Pang Yu, looked at Luo Ying again, frowned and got up, and took people away, obviously very unwilling.

Pang Yu held his chin and watched him walk downstairs, frowning, "Wow! Does this kid need to be so insidious? is so black Zhao Pu, and he also found two charlatans. ”

A few good tea guests came to tell Bao Yan and Pang Yu, "Actually, Mr. Storyteller has been praising and secretly belittling the Nine Princes a few days ago. ”

Bao Yan nodded, it seems that what he said about Qiao Zishan just now was not just a trick, in order to show his fairness and selflessness.

Pang Yu held the teacup and said to Bao Yan, "If it weren't for the little fourth son clamoring to come to listen to the book today, and let this storyteller go for a few days, it is estimated that rumors will spread again, and we will be considered to have come in time." ”

Saying that, both of them looked at the little fourth son.

But at this time, the little fourth son looked at Luo Ying with wide eyes.

Luo Ying lowered her head and saw that the little fourth son was looking up at herself, with a pair of big eyes that didn't blink, and she was also a little puzzled, "What's wrong......

Before he finished speaking, the little fourth son pounced, "Sister is so good!" ”

Xiao Liangzi also clapped his hands, "Super handsome!" ”

Luo Ying blushed and scratched her head, a little embarrassed.

Bao Yan asked Luo Ying curiously, "Do you actually know about the fireflies?" ”

Lin Yehuo also felt that this girl was too godly, she was simply a teenager's face and a thirty-year-old heart......

"There is a record in the collection of Evil Hull Island." Luo Ying replied.

"Evil Kettle Island has always been isolated from the world, how can there be books that record the affairs of the world?" Bao Yan couldn't help but ask.

Luo Ying shook her head, "I don't know what to do, but grandpa always asks me to read more books, saying that it will be useful in the future." ”

Bao Yan nodded, and gently tapped Pang Yu's head with chopsticks, the meaning was obvious-did you hear that? Studying depends on the usual!

Pang Yu scratched his head and subconsciously looked out the window.

Like Pang Yu, looking at the eldest grandson Qi and his party who left in a hurry outside the window, there were also Ye Zhiqiu and Lin Yehuo.

Ye Zhiqiu asked Lin Yehuo in a low voice, "Did you see those two with knives?" ”

Lin Yehuo nodded, "Except for the Daoist priest and the students of Taixue, the others are all killers of Xingyue Tower. ”

Pang Yu held his chin, "Eldest Sun Qi is so obvious, aren't you afraid of Zhao Puzhi's words?" ”

As everyone was talking, they saw downstairs, Pang Fu hurriedly ran up while wiping his sweat, and saw Pang Yu rushing over at a glance, "Young master, young master!" ”

Pang Yu looked at him puzzled, "Why are you?" ”

"Something's wrong!" Pang Fu tugged Pang Yu's arm, "Taishi is going to have a lawsuit!" ”

Pang Yu was taken aback, "What kind of lawsuit did my father eat?" ”

"The lord has killed someone." Pang Fu said in a low voice.

Pang Yu's eyes were about to fall out, "Kill...... Kill ......"

"Killed whom?" Bao Yan hurriedly asked.

"It's a long story, anyway, young master, hurry up and follow me." Pang Fu pulled Pang Yu and ran away.

Leaving everyone looking at each other.

Xiao Sizi held his face, "What's the matter?" ”

Bao Yan wanted to follow Pang Yu, but saw Ye Zhiqiu raise his hand lightly, blocking his way.

Ye Zhiqiu looked at Luo Yuan and Luo Ying, and said to Lin Yehuo, "You take the children back first." ”

Lin Yehuo didn't have a smile on his face at this time, and nodded lightly.

Ye Zhiqiu stood up and walked out of the small building.

Bao Yan picked up Xiao Sizi and Luo Yuan, and took Luo Ying to leave Yi Ming Pavilion with Lin Yehuo.

Bao Yan was confused all the way, "How can Taishi kill people......"

Lin Yehuo asked, "Pang Fu, the housekeeper of the Pang Yu family, doesn't know kung fu, right?" ”

Bao Yan nodded.

Lin Yehuo raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, but saw an acquaintance in front of him.

"Huh......" Lin Yehuo smiled slightly, "It's still quite lively." ”

While speaking, Xiao Sizi had already gotten down from Bao Yan's hand, trotted forward, and shouted, "The cat is in vain!" ”

In front, it was Zhanzhao, Bai Yutang, Tianzun and Shi Jin.

Zhanzhao and others took Shi Jin back to Kaifeng Mansion, but they didn't expect to meet Tian Tianbao halfway.

Tian Bao came up with a smile on his face to say hello to Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang, and gave Tianzun a big gift.

It was so coincidental that they met Lin Yehuo.

Zhan Zhao took the little fourth son who rushed up, glanced behind him, and found that Ye Zhiqiu was not there.

At the same time, Lin Yehuo and they have come up.

Luo Yuan and Luo Ying were beside him, the two children had changed into new clothes, washed their faces, and looked very good, so they had long lost their previous down-and-out looks.

Di Tianbao's gaze swept over the two children, and an attendant behind him immediately said to him, "Young master, these two ...... are the ones who stole the knife."

Di Tianbao raised his hand and waved it slightly, preventing his subordinates from speaking, and bowed his hand to Zhanzhao, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, what is the relationship between these two children and Kaifeng Mansion?" ”

Zhan Zhao looked at Luo Ying and Luo Yuan, and before he could speak, he heard Tianzun say, "Oh, my friend's child." ”

Everyone looked at Tianzun, and Bai Yutang nodded secretly—his master was still unambiguous at a critical time.

Luo Ying and Luo Yuan both looked straight at Tian Bao, and in their eyes...... The Heavenly Treasure has something to do with the real culprit who slaughtered their village! Maybe he's one of them! Implacable!

Di Tianbao also looked at the two children, probably because someone supported him, so the two children looked at him without fear, especially the girl, who was sharp at a young age, with a sharp sense of seeing through people's hearts.

Di Tianbao smiled slightly, bowed his hand to everyone again, and left, without saying anything, looking very hurried.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw that Tian Bao was far away, so they asked Lin Yehuo and them, why did they come back so early? Didn't you go to listen to a book?

Lin Yehuo and Xiao Sizi, you will talk about what happened just now.

Zhan Zhao couldn't help frowning, "Eldest Sun Qi simply doesn't know what to say!" ”

"The boat at the dock was killed by Fang Xing after Fang Jie." Bai Yutang also felt that it was inappropriate, "This time, it was Qiao Zishan who wanted to spread rumors and slander Zhao Pu...... Those opponents who lost ground back then, how could they seem to say that they were okay and come together to find trouble with Zhao Pu? ”

……

"Sneeze ......"

On the dock, Zhao Pu suddenly raised his face and sneezed after listening to Zou Liang, who rushed back, that maybe Han Zhang had a way.

The Ninth Prince was rubbing his nose, but Gongsun was pointing to the river in the distance, "Look! What a big ship! ”

When everyone looked up, they saw the outline of a huge ship appear on the vast and wide river. The building ship has four floors, very magnificent, the sail raised high by the mast is moving forward with full sails, and the sail is printed with the domineering family crest of the trapping island.

At the bow of the boat, a big man stepped on the dragon head wood carving on the bow with his hands behind his back, and when he saw Zhao Pu on the dock, he raised his hand to say hello.

Zhao Pu also beckoned, but he was a little surprised, did Xu Sanye also come?

As the ship gradually approached the dock, the fleet behind the big ship also appeared in everyone's field of vision, and the scale was amazing to everyone.

A calm horn sounded, a warning to the surrounding ships to avoid the big ships.

In Kaifeng City, many people also heard the sound of this horn.

Bai Yutang looked in the direction of the dock, "It's here." ”

Zhan Zhao hugged his arms and pulled the children, "Why don't you go to the dock to join in the fun?" ”

Bai Yutang also agreed, after all, he hadn't seen a few brothers for a while, so everyone walked in the direction of the dock together.
