"Jiang Zhuangyuan's family has recruited people, twenty copper coins a day, two meals, and meat for each meal." The news grew wings and soon flew through the neighboring villages. There was still more than half a month before the rice harvest, and the farmers who were idle at home flocked to Pingshan Town, and in one day, the Jiang family recruited more than 70 strong men.

Open the mountain and dig the ground, work hard, especially in July, when the heat is booming, this money is not easy to save. When eating, I saw buckets of snow-white rice and a big pot of oily braised pork, and everyone wanted to swallow the pot.

"Don't worry, it's all there, it's still being done at home, I'll send it over later, it's enough." Uncle Wang wiped his sweat with a towel and shouted loudly back and forth, "Drink more mung bean soup, this thing relieves the heat, everyone will rest at noon, and it is not too late to wait for the sun to go west." ”

When the sun went down, everyone called it a day, had another full meal, and took the twenty copper coins given by the lord's family, and dispersed in groups.

"The Jiang family is really good, talking counts, tomorrow I will call Ah Niu to come too."

"Otherwise, how could people win the champion, blessed by the gods, and kind people. Remember to call me tomorrow, I'll bring the big boy over, although it's a little smaller, the work is no worse than the adult. ”

For more than ten days in a row, the barren mountains of the Jiang family have changed, except for the big trees and miscellaneous trees, they have been removed, leveled and neat, waiting for the spring to plant fruit trees. Several fish ponds have been released, Jiang Anyong excitedly put the fish he caught in the pond, and then fantasized that next year's pond will be full of big fish.

Symbolically cutting off the first sickle crop, Jiang Anyi raised his head, his eyes were golden, this year's wind and rain were smooth, and a bumper harvest was in sight. The day of leaving home has come again, looking at the scenery in front of him, Jiang Anyi's heart is full of reluctance.

Jiang Anyong was full of expectations for this trip, and did not notice the reluctance in Jiang Huang's eyes, and carefully instructed the young heart to be annoying nagging, when he saw Yan'er's tearful eyes, Jiang Anyong suddenly realized the sadness of leaving home.

When Fang Zhizhong returned, he brought an iron rod, this big stick with the thickness of a duck egg weighed ninety pounds, Jiang Anyong had to use both hands to lift him, Jiang Anyi tried, if he was unlucky, he couldn't dance this iron rod. Watching Fang Zhizhong easily dance the iron rod in his hand, Jiang Anyong was full of envy, this thing does exist.

The problem is that Fang Zhizhong's weight is nearly 200 catties, and with this iron rod, ordinary horses can only carry 200 catties, and they can't carry him forward at all. Of course, Jiang Anyi's charcoal is fine, but Jiang Anyi has not been generous enough to give up the charcoal. Fang Zhizhong could only sit in the carriage and look enviously at the front of the car, the Jiang Anyi brothers walked side by side, one black and one red.

First, I went to Jinshui Village, Fuyang County to meet Mr. Fan. To be honest, for Jiang Anyi's high school champion, the old master couldn't believe it, Jiang Anyi's level was inferior to the teacher's book, and the teacher's book was considered a lucky thing in the second class, how could he be the high school champion. Anyway, his disciple Sanyuan and the first, as a teacher, is also glorious, he was the champion, and now the disciple is also the champion, Fan Yanzhong is very satisfied.

I haven't seen him for half a year, and Fan Fuzi's temper has subsided a lot, and his words have become more. The topic is always inseparable from children and grandchildren, and it looks like there are children and everything is enough. The angry old man was gone, and the years transformed him into a kind neighbor, Jiang Anyi was surprised to find that after dinner, Master Fan would actually lift a small chair and sit under the locust tree to chat with the old people in the village.

At the end of July, Jiang Anyi came to Anyang Mansion. Yu Zhijie's Qing War made the yamen set up in the original Beijia Yamen, which was only a few dozen zhang away from the palace, and the original Beijia Wang gave up his office and moved to the palace. The Son of Heaven gave him a three-month leave, and it was said that Jiang Anyi only needed to arrive at the end of August, and seeing that his disciples came to help a month in advance, Yu Zhijie was very happy, asked a few words, and asked him to rest for a few days, and he could arrive at the beginning of August.

In front of the mansion, Liu Yushan took people to take a look at Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi saw that he was wearing a new dark blue eight-grade official uniform, wearing a flat scarf on his head and a ribbon around his waist, and he looked radiant, probably because he often ran under the scorching sun, and his complexion became darker.

Seeing Jiang Anyi, Liu Yushan greeted with a smile: "Anyi, you are here, Lord Yu always talks about you." Now I have something to report to your lordship, where you live, and I will go to you in the evening, and we will have a good talk. ”

Because of taking Jiang Anyong and Fang Zhizhong, Jiang Anyi found an inn to live temporarily, and told Liu Yushan the name of the inn, and the two parted. It was still early, Jiang Anyi went back to the inn and called Fang Zhizhong, and took Jiang Anyong to Anyang Palace.

Wei Mengqiang was riding a horse and shooting arrows on the school grounds, dancing with weapons. Someone came over to report: "There is a person named Jiang Anyi in front of the door who asks to see him." ”

"Jiang Anyi? Who is it? Wei Mengqiang thought for a long time and didn't remember who it was.

Shi Fangdao, the prince who was shooting at the target next to him, said with a smile: "General Wei is a noble person, and he forgets about it after he fights." Who, Jiang Zhuangyuan Jiang Cixian is here, he doesn't come to me, but to you. Oh, I understand, last time you made a wish to find you for something, and now Jiang Zhuangyuan is looking for you to return the favor. ”

Wei Mengqiang patted his head and said with a smile: "I remember, it's the white-faced scholar in the academy who rode a good horse, and he won the top prize in the exam, this kid is amazing." ”

Shi Fangdao was speechless, he didn't know such a big thing as Jiang Anyi's Sanyuan and the first champion, but he was still thinking about the black horse, he was really a good and martial rough man who didn't care about literary affairs. Shi Fangdao handed the bow in his hand to the servant, wiped his sweat, and said, "This son of the world is going to see you, General Wei, looking for you, you go first." ”

Seeing the prince walking in with a spring breeze on his face, Jiang Anyi hurriedly got up and saluted, this prince is good to himself, the palace makes a name for himself, and when he is imprisoned, he secretly contributes to himself, saying that he is his benefactor.

"An Yi has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, thank you for your help several times."

"Hahahaha", Shi Fangdao smiled and grabbed Jiang Anyi, and said: "Anyi actually saluted me, a big plaster beam, wouldn't it break your great word immortal's bones." Please sit down and serve tea. ”

Wei Mengqiang blocked the door like an iron tower, his eyes glanced at Jiang Anyi, and immediately noticed Fang Zhizhong's body. Fang Zhizhong is the same tall and burly, the same Kong Wu is powerful, except that the beard has not yet grown into a beard, the two of them are simply a template used.

Shi Fangdao also noticed Fang Zhizhong, and asked with a smile: "This strong man is as tall as General Wei, and he is really a strong man." ”

Wei Meng came in with a strong body, and the jujube wood chair screamed with a butt, and looked at Fang Zhizhong and provoked unceremoniously: "What's the use of being tall, I don't know how good it is, or it's a rice bucket, and I'm blind with this figure." ”

Same-sex repulsion, there is nothing wrong with it between Wei Mengqiang and Fang Zhizhong, Fang Zhizhong stood up "Teng" and shouted: "That man, you don't have to talk about it, or you don't have to compete and say who is the rice bucket." ”

Shi Fangdao applauded and laughed, and said, "Okay, Qiangzi, someone has called at you, there is a good show." Anyi, let's go watch them compete first, and then it's not too late to come back and talk. ”

On the school field, Wei Mengqiang rode a big green horse to show off his might, and Fang Zhizhong couldn't even choose a few weapons. Shi Fangdao asked, "You can bring your own weapons." After receiving the reply, Shi Fangdao asked people to go and fetch it.

Seeing two people carrying Fang Zhizhong's weapons to the school grounds, Fang Zhizhong took them and danced a few stick flowers in his hands. Wei Mengqiang reined in his horse, nodded and said, "Yes, with this strength, it is worth Wei's shot, come on." ”

Fang Zhizhong walked on the field with an iron rod, Wei Mengqiang frowned, and asked, "You don't know how to ride a horse?" ”

"No horses."

Wei Mengqiang understood that this big man was the same as himself, too heavy, and the ordinary horse did not move. Looking at the prince with a smile, Wei Meng said strongly: "Your Highness, why don't you give this kid your yellow horse to ride, and let him make two moves with me first." ”

Shi Fangdao nodded and agreed, and someone brought a yellow horse, head and tail, about the same size as charcoal. Fang Zhizhong's eyes were happy, and he reached out and pressed the horse's back first, but the horse didn't move at all.

"Good horse." Shi Fang praised again, turned over and got on the horse, and Wei Mengqiang was far away, the two of them were like two iron towers, and the people present cheered in unison, "Good man".

Wei Mengqiang used a double iron halberd, and with the help of the horse's momentum, the halberd in his left hand hung on the top of the head of the evil wind and smashed it. Fang Zhizhong's hands were crossed, and the halberd rod smashed on the iron rod and splashed countless sparks, and a loud sound resounded throughout the school field.

Lapping back to the horse, Wei Mengqiang smiled and said, "Yes, energetic." ”

Fang Zhizhong felt that stepping off the horse was as steady as Mount Tai, and the recoil force of the hard blow just now had no effect on it at all. With a bottom in his heart, Fang Zhizhong was not to be outdone, and urged the horse and dance stick to run Wei Mengqiang. Seeing the iron rod sweeping towards him, Wei Mengqiang was not in a hurry, and the double halberds crossed towards the body of the stick, and there was another loud bang, and the stick was broken.

The two of you come and go, the moves are as fast as a storm, the sound of the halberd stick is like the sound of firecrackers, and the dust and smoke are everywhere, and people are trembling to see it.

There were guards from the palace on the school grounds, cheering for their own generals, Jiang An was not angry, jumped to his feet and shouted loudly: "Brother Zhizhong, come on, Brother Zhizhong is mighty." A person's shout was inaudible in the shouts of the army, but Jiang Anyong didn't care, and still shouted jubilantly.

Shi Fangdao glanced at Jiang Anyong and said with a smile: "This is Brother Ling, innocent and innocent, without losing his innocence. ”

Hearing that the prince appreciated An Yong, Jiang Anyi decided to strike while the iron was hot, and said, "Your Highness, An Yi is here to ask Your Highness." The most important thing is my brother-in-law, who is brave by nature, and it would be a pity to succumb to the countryside, I want him to join General Wei and have the opportunity to serve the court in the future. ”

Shi Fangdao was overjoyed, Wei Mengqiang was a fierce general in the world, Fang Zhizhong could fight with him on the field, that was also a great hero, such a hero was willing to throw himself under his command, and he couldn't find it with a lantern.

"Okay", Shi Fangdao agreed repeatedly, his heart blossomed, and he thought about it: "Let him be a personal guard in my mansion first, and I will promote him to brigade commander after a while, and other things will be talked about in the future." ”

The brigade commander of the Anyang Palace's palace only has jurisdiction over 200 people, but he is a real captain of the school, from the official rank of the ninth grade, Shi Fangdao said a word, and Fang Zhizhong has changed from an ordinary person to a non-commissioned officer. Jiang Anyi thanked the prince for Fang Zhi, pointed at Jiang Anyong and said: "My brother has been good martial arts since he was a child, and he always causes trouble at home, I want to entrust him to the prince and let him be a small soldier in the mansion, and then take him back after my errand in Anyang Mansion is completed." ”

It's really a good thing, arranging a person is insignificant to Shi Fangdao, and it is of great significance to be able to win over the champion of Sanyuan and the first. Jiang Anyi entrusted his righteous brother and younger brother to himself, didn't he mean that he would be firmly tied to the Anyang Mansion in the future.

Shi Fangdao thought too much, Jiang Anyi really didn't think much about it, it seemed that among the people he knew, only Shizi was the most powerful, the most capable, and the best to speak. After all, he is only eighteen years old, Jiang Anyi is still very immature politically, no matter what he thinks, after today, Jiang Anyi will inevitably be inseparable from the Anyang Palace.
