After Shi Lang told Luo Shiyin about the whole process of his private release of Ye Ruliu, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

The night in Changbai Mountain is a little cool. From the mountain forest northwest of Qinglan Peak, the howl of a wild wolf could be heard clearly.

After listening to Shi Lang's statement, Luo Shiyin did not speak immediately, and after a long time, he patted Shi Lang on the shoulder and said, "Just from a reasonable point of view, what you did is still understandable. After listening to what you just said, I suddenly had an idea, can you persuade Ye Ruliu to go down the mountain with us, join the team, and go to fight in North Korea together. The team needs someone like her. ”

Luo Shiyin's remarks were based on the following three considerations: First, the task of going to Korea this time was arduous, and although the brothers he led were all equipped with unique skills, none of them had ever dealt with the Japanese with real knives and guns. Ye Ruliu has many years of actual combat experience in leading troops to fight against the Japanese in the coastal areas of Zhejiang, and she should have an understanding of the operational characteristics of the Japanese invaders. With her joining, the odds of completing the mission can be greatly improved; Second, Ye Ruliu is a criminal arrested by the imperial court, if Ye Ruliu is allowed to go to the court with the team to make meritorious contributions, the merit can be reversed; Third, Shi Lang and Ye Ruliu, two young people, are in love, and they can also take this opportunity to match a pair of mandarin ducks.

Of course, there will be a lot of risk in doing so, and Luo Shiyin is somewhat entangled in his heart. But at the moment of the great enemy, the imperial court was at the time of employing people, and he finally affirmed his idea.

After listening to Luo Shiyin's words, Shi Lang's face showed surprise, he understood the commander's good intentions for himself and Ye Ruliu. Shi Lang quickly analyzed the current situation in his heart: for himself and Ye Ruliu, the decision to obey the command is undoubtedly a wise choice. After all, for Ye Ruliu, hiding in this barren mountain and wilderness with the reputation of a criminal in the court on his back is not a long-term solution. Although there are certain risks in going to North Korea this time, I will do my best to protect my beloved.

"Thank you, sir!" Shi Lang gratefully saluted Luo Shiyin.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me yet, you still have to ask for Miss Ye's consent for this matter!" Luo Shiyin signaled Shi Lang to be exempt.

"Don't worry, sir, this matter is on me. I'll definitely convince her to go with the team. Shi Lang was confident in persuading Ye Ruliu to go to North Korea with his team.

"Haha, okay. Then hurry up and catch up with others. People are waiting for you. Luo Shiyin pointed to the upper room with the lights outside the window with his finger and said jokingly.

"That'...... My lord...... I'm going to get over it. Shi Lang smiled at Luo Shiyin with some embarrassment.

"Go ahead, I'm waiting for your good news." Luo Shiyin waved at Shi Lang and motioned for him to go out.

Shi Lang walked out of Luo Shiyin's door and walked towards the upper room where Ye Ruliu lived.

A faint light came through the window of the upper room. Shi Lang knew that Ye Ruliu was waiting for him, and he calmed down a little outside the door. Shi Lang was about to knock on the door, but the door opened softly.

"Brother Shi Lang......" Ye Ruliu stood in the door, tears in her eyes.

"Ru Liu!" Shi Lang couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, stepped into the door, and hugged Ye Ruliu tightly into his arms. Two beating hearts happily clinging together.

It's a small house. Although the house was a little shabby, it was well organized and clean. The whole room is filled with the delicate fragrance unique to the young woman's embroidery room.

"Brother Shi Lang, in order to save me, I made you suffer......"

"Nothing. It's just that I don't know why you came to this barren mountain and wilderness when you and I said goodbye that day? Shi Lang comforted Ye Ruliu and sat on the stool in front of the bed.

Ye Ruliu took a glass of water and handed it to Shi Lang, then sat opposite Shi Lang, and looked at Shi Lang quietly for a while, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"It's a long story......"

Shi Lang steadied himself and listened attentively to Ye Ruliu's words.

That day, after saying goodbye to Shi Lang, Ye Ruliu immediately rushed back to the gang and led the brothers in the gang to Banji Island in the East China Sea of Zhejiang to escape the impending government killing. After staying on the island for a while, I didn't see any action from the government. Later, Ye Ruliu heard that Shi Lang was arrested and imprisoned for privately releasing herself, so she took out all her savings and bribed the salt envoys of the two Zhejiang capitals through her connections, hoping that he could use his relationship in the DPRK and China to buy off relevant officials to rescue Shi Lang.

In the Ming Dynasty, the salt envoys of the two Zhejiang capitals not only managed the salt affairs, but also procured valuables for the court and reconnoitred the social situation, which can be said to be an institution that can collect a large number of people's fat and ointment. At the time, the position was a fat gap. Successive salt envoys from both Zhejiang and Zhejiang often used the money they looted to bribe high-ranking officials in the capital, and the network of relationships they weaved with money was still very strong.

The salt envoy of the two Zhejiang provinces who was bought by Ye Ruliu not only accepted the silver, but also took a fancy to Qiu Yun, the maid who followed Ye Ruliu. The salt envoy hoped that Ye Ruliu would give Qiuyun to him as a concubine. At that time, Ye Ruliu was very angry, she just wanted to have a seizure, but Qiu Yun beside her readily agreed to the request of the salt transport envoy. The next day, Qiu Yun was married by the salt envoy and became his third concubine. Unexpectedly, this salt envoy was a scoundrel who ate meat and did not spit out bones. The money was accepted, and Qiu Yun married into the family as he wished, but he didn't go to dredge up the relationship for Shi Lang at all. In a fit of rage, Qiu Yun poisoned the wine of the salt envoy and poisoned him to death. After the matter was revealed, Qiuyun was beaten to death by the family of the salt envoy.

"Qiuyun was an orphan adopted by my father, and we grew up together as sisters. I tried to persuade her not to do that, but she decided to marry the bad old man as a concubine. I know in my heart that he is doing this completely to fulfill me and ......" Ye Ruliu choked and paused, while glancing at Shi Lang shyly. Shi Lang nodded heartily, gently held Ye Ruliu's hand, and soothed her somewhat excited emotions with a loving look.

"Later, the officers and soldiers attacked Banji Island on a large scale, and the brothers on the island were scattered, and Hegui and I led a few of our men to break out. The officers and soldiers pursued and killed all the way, and their brothers suffered heavy casualties. In desperation, under the recommendation of several friends in the rivers and lakes, we fled into this vast mountain and defected to the name of Qu Da, the owner of Qilin Cottage. I don't want this Qu Da to be a shameless person who ignores the morality of the rivers and lakes and takes advantage of the danger of others. He wants to blackmail me into being his wife, otherwise he won't take me and my subordinates. Of course, I wouldn't agree, so I quietly went down the mountain with Hegui and a few brothers that night to find the Qinglan Peak to settle down. Later, the brothers who were scattered by the official army in the gang came one after another, and the team slowly grew stronger. ”

"Who are the people who are going to kill you during the day?" Shi Lang saw that Ye Ruliu's mood had stabilized, and interjected and asked.

"Which rope soldiers are Quda's men. The continuous expansion of our territory has affected their accumulation of wealth, so they have killed us. After a few rounds, they didn't take much advantage of the Qilin Cottage. Under the mediation of another cottage owner, everyone decided to sit down and negotiate peace. The place of the peace was chosen in the village of the owner of the village who came forward to reconcile. We agreed with the three parties: only the owner of the village is allowed to go alone, without a single soldier. During the day, I went to appointments alone. Unexpectedly, Qu Da was treacherous and sent someone to intercept me halfway. Ye Ruliu said calmly.

"Before we met you, we were also attacked by a group of rope soldiers in the woods."

"That should be Quda's men. Maybe they're mistaking you for my men. "I didn't expect this Changbai Mountain to be so unpeaceful."

"Brother Shi Lang, you saw that I said it alone, and I forgot to ask you, how did you get out of prison? How did you get to this deep mountain and old forest? ”

Shi Lang told Ye Ruliu how he was rescued from prison and followed the commander to fight in North Korea.

After Ye Ruliu heard this, she immediately became worried, she anxiously held Shi Lang's hand and said, "Brother Shi Lang, the Japanese are very cunning and difficult, can you ...... Don't you go? ”

"It's hard to disobey the emperor's order." Shi Lang also held Ye Ruliu's hand.

"That'...... Can you take me with you? There can also be a response to each other. I can't help you face such a vicious enemy. Ye Ruliu's expression was a little anxious, but her tone of voice was tentative. Because she knew in her heart that it was a tricky thing to go to Korea with the Jinyi Guard team to fight in North Korea with her current identity, with Shi Lang's status and status, he would definitely not be able to be the master, and his appearance might bring trouble to Shi Lang.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Seeing Ye Ruliu's anxious appearance, Shi Lang deliberately teased her.

"That'...... Can you think of another way. Ye Ruliu looked at Shi Lang with anxious eyes.

"Tease you. It was on the orders of the commander that I came here to ask you to go down the mountain with the team. Shi Langle said to Ye Ruliu.

"Commander? Isn't it the big brother you introduced me? ”

"Exactly."

"Really? That's great! Ye Ruliu stood up suddenly, and her joy was beyond words.

Shi Lang conveyed Luo Shiyin's hope that Ye Ruliu would go down the mountain to the DPRK to Ye Ruliu, and briefly introduced the accompanying brothers.

"Okay, I'll pack up tonight and go down the mountain with you tomorrow." Ye Ruliu replied briskly.

"And what about these brothers of yours?"

"It can be handed over to the deputy lord of the village and your commander. He still has great authority in the hearts of the brothers. Ye Ruliu said without thinking.

In the east wing, Luo Shiyin slowly paced back and forth. This time, the imperial court sent him to lead this team to carry out a mission in North Korea, which was of course an affirmation of his work ability. He was only in his early forties, and he looked much older than his peers. He treats his subordinates well. At that time, Shi Lang was appreciated by the emperor under his strong recommendation, and was soon promoted to the rank of Zhengwupin Jinyi Wei Qianhu. After listening to Shi Lang's story about the private release of Ye Ruliu, Luo Shiyin became interested in Ye Ruliu, a strange woman, and his love for talent was spontaneous. Of course, he also knew that recruiting Ye Ruliu into the team, although it could improve the combat ability of the team, some people in the court, especially his opponents, would definitely take advantage of this to make a big fuss, and they might bring death to themselves. However, weighing the pros and cons, Luo Shiyin finally firmly believed that his decision would not be wrong, after all, the successful completion of the task assigned by the emperor was the most important thing. As for other things, you can wait until you return to China to explain them to the Holy Lord.

"My lord, I brought her here, and she agreed to go with us." Shi Lang happily took Ye Ruliu's hand and walked into the room where Luo Shiyin was.

"The people's daughter Ye Ruliu visited the commander, and the criminals were willing to follow the commander to make contributions to the court, and they would never give up!" Ye Ruliu stepped forward and knelt on one leg, clasped her hands into fists, and saluted Luo Shiyin.

"Hurry up, please!" Luo Shiyin was in a happy mood, he motioned for Ye Ruliu to get up, and said to Shi Lang who was standing aside: "Quickly help Miss Ye up!" ”

Shi Lang picked up Ye Ruliu, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

"My lord, she's going to pack up tonight and go down the mountain with us tomorrow."

"Okay, this trip is so strong, God help me! Hahaha......" Luo Shiyin looked at the heroic Ye Ruliu in front of him, and let out a hearty laugh in his mouth.

The next day, the brothers in the cottage held a simple farewell ceremony. Ye Ruliu announced in public: All the affairs of the cottage will be presided over by the deputy owner and Gui.

In the farewell of everyone, Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang, Ye Ruliu and other six people embarked on the road down the mountain.

As soon as the six of them stepped out of the gate of Shigangzhai, they heard a burst of scolding from under Qinglan Peak. A group of men and horses have surrounded Shigangzhai.
