Chapter 101 Loyal and not afraid of death Chen Shaoyang

Although Lin'an City is only in the line, but the royal family of the Great Song Dynasty has been stationed here for a long time, there are people who poem "outside the mountain Qingshan Lou Wailou, when will the West Lake sing and dance rest", here is indeed the hometown of the gold powder family, the hometown of singing and dancing Shengping, the population gathers businessman Jia Ruyun, and there are many restaurants. Among them, there are not only the various music buildings, Chunfeng buildings, and Taiping buildings operated by the household inspection office, but also the Xichun Building, Sanyuan Building, and Huayue Building operated by the merchants and ordinary people. In the past few years, the "Heroes Club" has also gained a foothold in Lin'an, and with its unique flavor, this building even has a tendency to catch up.

Huo Chongcheng sat on the top floor of the Heroes Club with a sad face, looking at the bustling customers, but he couldn't laugh.

"Ten days......" he sighed.

"Official, if you're so depressed, why don't you go and play tricks?" A companion came up with an idea.

"Get out!" Huo Chongcheng flew up and kicked on the buttocks of the companion, and the companion ran away with a smile, but he was not annoyed.

"You thief is here to hurt me again!" Huo Chongcheng scolded: "Last time, I listened to you pick up, and went to the Qinglou once, but I was learned by the little lady of the Su family, and I haven't paid attention to me for ten days today, you thieves and birds, don't hurry up and give Lao Tzu an idea, let the little lady of the Su family change her mind earlier!" ”

"I'll go out and think about it, maybe I can come up with an idea......" The companion immediately flashed away when he heard the words, and went downstairs and shook his head: "I don't know where the little lady of the Su family is good, and the officials of my family are fascinated, and it has been like this for several years." ”

Huo Chongcheng scolded behind his back, sat down again and began to sulk.

He was sitting on the top floor of the "Heroes" facing the gate, so he could clearly see the people who came in, but he didn't even notice anyone who passed by him.

"Brother Guangliang!" He was in a daze, when suddenly someone next to him called him, and before he could react, a hand put on his arm and pushed him hard: "Brother Guangliang!" ”

"Ah...... Aqi, did your sister ask you to come? Huo Chongcheng looked back and saw that it was Su Qi, the younger brother of Su Sui of Sanyuanlou, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly took his hand: "What did she say?" Will she ignore me? ”

Su Qi is also thirteen years old now, and she looks like a tiger with a naughty glint in her eyes. Hearing Huo Chongcheng's words, he curled his mouth and said: "My sister is too lazy to pay attention to you, I am here to ask for my things, you answer yes, what about sending me a begging thing?" ”

Because the quarterh workshop has also been moved to Liuqiu, the small toys driven by the machinery produced by the clock workshop have now become the products of Liuqiu. Because of the small quantity, it may not be possible to buy it at a high price on the market. Huo Chongcheng could get some from Meng Xisheng through his relationship with Zhao and Ju, and he used these things to tease Su Qi every time. Hearing Su Qi ask, he remembered that these days he only thought about how to make Su Sui's face cloudy, but he never took the matter of this more amazing little ancestor to heart, he rolled his eyes, and just wanted to prevaricate with a lie, Su Qi pointed to his nose and said, "You want to trick me again!" ”

"What's the matter, how can I deceive you as a dignified manly husband?"

"Why do you trick me once or twice, every time you want to trick me, your eyes will roll, my sister told me!" Su Qi pointed to his eyes.

Huo Chongcheng was embarrassed, he swallowed his saliva, and was about to defend again, when he suddenly saw a person, and couldn't help but say "Huh".

What he saw was a man in his thirties, with a burly body and an extraordinary appearance. Huo Chongcheng recognized him, this person's surname is Huaming Yue Zixi, he was originally the martial champion of this section, and now he is serving in the front division of the palace. Huo Chongcheng was a bold character when he was in Shaoxing, quite like his father's legacy, and liked to make some friends, especially after the group meeting in Lin'an. More than ten years ago, he bluntly said that he should kill Prime Minister Han Yanxuan and was angry and arrested in power.

"Hua Zixi, Zhuang Yuanlang, I haven't seen you for many days, how can you have time to come to me, aren't you on duty in front of the palace today?" Huo Chongcheng greeted him upstairs, then turned to Su Qi and said, "I have a guest, Ah Qi, you come back, how about I send you something to the door in two days?" ”

"If you lie to me again, I will tell my sister and let her ignore you again." Su Qi threatened.

"I won't fool you!" Huo Chongcheng said as he walked downstairs.

He firmly remembered that Zhao and Ju had said to him that they would make more friends with people for future use. Now that Zhao Youju has changed his name to Guicheng and become the heir of King Yi, Huo Chongcheng has figured out many questions, and he dare not slack off on the things that Zhao Youju has explained.

Who knows where Ah Ju can go in the future, if he has a proud day, he and he are friends of the horns, and they have made a lot of efforts for him, how rich and noble!

Hua Yue walked up to the third floor and nodded to Huo Chongcheng, he was the general in front of the palace, and he was born in Taixue, if it weren't for the copper smell that Huo Chongcheng didn't have, it wouldn't be worth his friendship.

"Guangliang, do you have a private room here?" Hua Yue said in a low voice: "I have something to invite guests, and I must have a quiet place." ”

"Zixi, don't worry, if you want a private room, there will naturally be!" For this champion of today's science and martial arts, Huo Chongcheng also made friends with Quyi, he called a junior second, and after a few words, he personally led Hua Yue to the private room.

This private room is in the far corner of the building, facing the street to the lake, and it was the best one in the "Heroes Club" in Lin'an. Hua Xi was extremely satisfied when he saw it, and said to Huo Chongcheng: "This is it, I invited someone to come, if someone asks about me, you just have to bring him here." ”

"What kind of dishes does Zixi want, just say, I just came here with some overseas wine, the most mellow, extremely strong wine, just suitable for a hero like Zixi." Huo Chongcheng said with a smile.

In the Song Dynasty, there was already purified wine, but it was much lighter than in later generations, and after the grain harvest in the past two years, he began to make wine, and then packed these spirits in glass bottles and transported them to Yanyun to exchange labor with the Hu people. The Hu people had excellent wine, as if no amount of liquor could feed their wine worms, and in order to exchange for the liquor they couldn't brew at home, there was a lot less killing in Yanyun. This was a strategy that Zhao and Ju had already set, and it could be regarded as something to do to protect the various ethnic groups in the north, so most of the liquor was exported to the north, and coupled with the "drunkenness" of the Great Song Dynasty (Note 2), there were fewer sales of this liquor to the south of the Yangtze River.

"Bring me an altar." Hua Yue had something in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to Huo Chongcheng's praise. Huo Chongcheng was a knowledgeable person, so he turned around and asked Xiao Er to bring him a bottle of wine, but he didn't go again.

"This Hua Zixi, I don't know what kind of person is waiting for, it is like this." Huo Chongcheng thought to himself, he originally intended to take a look, but he thought that it would not be beautiful if he got into trouble, so he went to the counter on the ground floor and stayed.

He is the owner of the "Heroes Club", if it weren't for someone of Hua Yue's status, he wouldn't have needed him to greet him. So he sat at the counter for a long time, doing nothing, and after about half an hour, a man in his forties walked in, went straight to the counter and asked, "Is there a man surnamed Hua who has reserved a seat here?" ”

This person is indeed a face student, but the accent is an authentic Lin'an accent, Huo Chongcheng perked up: "Is it Huayue Huazixi?" ”

"Exactly, where are the others?"

"In the private room on the third floor, I'll take the guest officer there." Huo Chongcheng greeted.

Before arriving at the private room, Huo Chongcheng knocked on the door, and after a while, Hua Yue opened the door and poked his head out, and saw the man, with a happy look on his face: "You have arrived, please come in, I am waiting for someone, and there will be two or three more people coming." ”

Huo Chongcheng's heart moved, he still wanted to hear two more sentences, Hua Yue had already introduced the person into the private room, and then said to him: "Guangliang, wait for me below, there are still people coming, order the kitchen to clean up a table of wine for us, and send it up when everyone is ready." ”

Huo Chongcheng muttered in his heart, only to feel that this Hua Yue was extremely strange today, and he was doing things in a secret, which was completely different from his boldness in the past. He came to the first floor, and waited for a while, and sure enough, someone came to ask Hua Yue, this time it was three people, Huo Chongcheng led them upstairs, and ordered the kitchen to start delivering food. Although he was curious, he finally held back and did not run to eavesdrop.

After everyone arrived, Hua Yue said with a smile: "Brothers, introduce a noble person to know you, this Mr. Liu is a very trustworthy person around His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

The Mr. Liu he introduced was the first man in his forties to arrive, and after hearing Hua Yue's introduction, he got up and greeted everyone.

"This is Yuan Fu Yuan Guangwei, the son of Mr. Su Zhai." Hua Yue pointed to one of the three people who came after.

"It turned out to be the son of Mr. Su Zhai, Ling Zun's name, and he has heard it for a long time." The gentleman stood up again and saluted.

Hua Yue introduced everyone one by one, Yuan Fu was over forty years old, and the other two were still in their early twenties, after getting to know each other, Hua Yue opened the door of the private room again, checked that no one was eavesdropping outside, and then took a seat.

"Mr. Liu, what does His Royal Highness the Prince command?" Hua Yue said to that Mr. Liu.

"This matter shall come out of my mouth and into your ears, and shall not be known to others." Mr. Liu first said solemnly: "If the news leaks, after you fall into the traitor, you must not implicate His Royal Highness the prince!" ”

"That's nature." Hua Yue smiled: "Everyone here is a generous and heroic person, Mr. Liu can only rest assured." ”

He sang and harmonized with Mr. Liu, which made Yuan Fu frown slightly. Yuan Fu came from a family of science, his father had served as Taixue Xuezheng, Guozi Sacrificial Wine and other positions, protégés all over the world, Yuan Fu himself was also the champion of Jiading seven years (1214), and now he is the post of Zuolang. Originally, when he saw Hua Yue's mysterious behavior, he was a little unhappy in his heart, and when he learned that Mr. Liu was the person next to the prince Zhao Hong, he was even more vigilant, and he was afraid that nothing good would happen today.

"Now that the power is in power and the government is bullying, my Great Song Dynasty has reached the autumn of survival!" Mr. Liu's words were astonishing: "If no one raises his arms and raises his arms, lifts the sword of fish intestines, and fights the mallet of the waves, then my Great Song Dynasty will die without a day!" ”

Yuan Fu's face changed, he got up and arched his hand: "The old father in the family, who is over eighty years old, sent a letter yesterday, saying that his body was quite heavy, and the official came here to say goodbye to Zixi. ”

Mr. Liu's generous words were about to pour out, but he was blocked by Yuan Fu's words, and his complexion immediately changed, it was Hua Yue, and his face was red and white for a while. Without waiting for the two to reply, Yuan Fu got up and walked: "You guys use it slowly, you don't have to send it, you don't have to send it!" ”

As he spoke, he opened the door and walked out of the private room. Hua Yue's forehead burst out, wanting to call him, but seeing him walking in a hurry, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

He turned to the other two who were still kept: "Yuan Guangwei is so cowardly, ashamed of his father's name, do you two want to learn from him?" ”

The two of them looked at each other, and their expressions were a little sneering. Mr. Liu sighed, shook his head, and said, "The two hundred years of the national dynasty have been raising soldiers, and when the matter comes to an end, there is no one?" Resurrecting Chen Shaoyang and reincarnating Ouyang Deming (Note 3), wouldn't we be ashamed? ”

The two of them were strong-blooded, and when they heard the feats of Mr. Liu's students, they couldn't help but boil with enthusiasm, and they got up and said, "Dare not obey your fate!" ”

"The power traitor controls the court, and the prince has long wanted to get rid of this treachery, but he only can't bear the power and treachery to deceive Shengcong, so it can't be satisfied. Now the power traitor has framed the prince again, dividing the relationship between the saint and the prince's father and son, in a vain attempt to shake the country's foundation. In order to fulfill his treacherous ambition, he didn't know where to find wild seeds, pretending to be the bloodline of the descendants of Taizu, and the Son of Heaven did not notice it for a while, making him the heir of King Yi, and then looking down on the position of the prince. Mr. Liu glanced at everyone: "The prince is angry in his heart, I wonder if you are willing to remove this accomplice for the prince?" ”

The people present were all staying in Lin'an, and naturally understood who he was talking about.

"What does Mr. Liu mean?" This time, Hua Yue also heard the words for the first time, and asked out loud.

"That person is just a village child, where can he be a nobleman?" Mr. Liu's eyes were extremely cold: "Hua Zixi, I have long heard that you have traveled extensively, from the Zizhu Gao Mansion to the peddlers and pawns, you have acquaintances. These two can stay here, and naturally they are also loyal and heroic to me, I only ask you, can you find a special one for His Royal Highness the Emperor? ”

The two Tai students glanced at each other, seeing both excitement and fear in each other's eyes, and they had a sense of grandeur that their own family was participating in and even leading history, as if at this moment, the entire Great Song Dynasty National Movement was in their hands.

"The palace is heavily guarded, I'm afraid it's not easy to enter." A student said: "That heir of King Yi, who lives in a simple place, can't enter the palace, how can he ......?"

"It's not difficult to enter the palace." Hua Yue's eyes flickered: "I am now serving in the front division of the palace, and it is not a big deal to hide one or two people into the palace." I can get it all when the palace guards patrol, as long as there is a daredevil. ”

"I know a character whose family is very poor, who serves his mother to filial piety, who makes a living by being a servant, who has read books for a few days, and has always prided himself on being Mohist, and has a strong temperament. Another student said: "It's just his old mother, who must have a good life and good care." ”

"His mother is my mother." Hua Yue said categorically: "And lead me to see that person, as long as I have one life, I will not let his mother suffer!" ”
