"What? The man didn't say goodbye? Zhao Yupan exclaimed in surprise.

"But no, I said princess, such a fortunate and unrighteous person, why do you still remember him! The princess has shown her favor again and again, but what does she get? Gong E next to her said indignantly.

Zhao Yupan shook his head, as if comforting himself, and said, "He's not ruthless... Just don't dare, it must be so... Hi! You say he's afraid of anything, I'm not afraid, am I? ”

Gong E wanted to say something more, but Zhao Yupan shook his hand and said, "No need to say more... The matter... Let's just assume it didn't happen... And let him not bring his book again. ”

Gong E hugged Zhao Yupan distressedly, Zhao Yupan's eyes were full of tears, and he muttered in his mouth, "May the next life... Not the Emperor's house! ”

Autumn to winter, Jiang De and others returned to the original life trajectory after returning to Neihuang, the only change is probably Tianxiang College, because Jiang De has more cement, glass and cotton industries, Jiang De began to set up branches in Liangshan, Jishui, in order to cultivate more reliable manpower.

In addition, it is the thousands of soldiers who were convened on the basis of the armor protection system, although Jiang De did not equip them with armor, but they were all wearing leather armor, and they were all spears and knives in their hands, and the bows and arrows were complete, and everyone was trained in accordance with the military discipline of Liangshan Military Law, starting from the military posture, Yue Fei and others were also thrown into the army by Jiang De, and formed a team of their own, although they were young, but the other soldiers also knew that these were nobles, and they did not dare to bully, Yue Fei and others also started their military careers.

This year's winter was colder than usual, and in the blink of an eye, it was the spring of the third year of Zhenghe.

- Shijiazhuang

"Daddy!!" Shi Jin wore a white cloth strip, crying like a tearful man in front of a coffin, maybe it was because he saw Shi Jin's martial arts soaring under Wang Jin's training, Zhu Wu and others in Huayin Mountain also treated Shi Jin with respect, and the old man Shi put down his heart at Shi Jin.

Since then, Shi Jin has no father or mother, and his heart is sad and difficult to describe, Wang Jin and Niu Gao continue to comfort him, and Zhu Wu and others also came to condole.

"Hey, Shi Dalang, don't cry, think about how benevolent and righteous the old farmer is, he will definitely go to the land of bliss." Chen Da hugged Shi Jin with red eyes and said, these days, Zhu Wu and the three of them have not been in contact with the old Shi Zhuang, although both parties have their own ghosts, but they have done very well on the surface, Chen Da has also received a lot of favor from the old Shi Zhuang, but at this time he is really uncomfortable.

After the white incident, Wang Jin's mother's health has also completely improved, Wang Jin and Niu Gao asked Shi Jin to resign together, Shi Jin saw that the master was also leaving, and cried again, but he had no choice but to send the master away, the originally lively Shijiazhuang slowly quieted down, only Zhu Wu and others often came to drink and play.

Not to mention Shi Jin, Wang Jin and his entourage walked to the end of March and came to Yan'an Mansion.

This old Zhong Jingluo, is the teacher of the road, his father Shiheng, uncle Chong Ge, are contemporary famous generals, he himself when he was a child worshiped the great Confucian Zhang Zai as a teacher, first civilian, then into the military attaché, he because of his family education, familiar with the art of war, proficient in battle formations, guarding the northwest, and shaking Liaoxia. His younger brother, called Breeder Zhong, is known as Xiao Zhong because he is younger than him, and he is also a contemporary celebrity.

Zhong Shidao sat in the Jingluo Mansion, heard that someone worshipped the door, took the worship post and looked at it, and said, "Wang Jin, I have also heard of this person, many of those who go to Tokyo talk about this person, saying that this person is strong in martial arts, and I am in the northwest when I use people, but I can use it!" ”

A literati next to him arched his hand and said, "Xianggong, I'm afraid this person is the person Gao Dianshuai posted a few days ago to arrest, is it appropriate for us to take him in?" ”

Zhong Shidao raised his hand and said, "Such a person is really strong in martial arts, and when my Western Army is employing people, talents are rare, I will accept them, if he is just an embroidered pillow, I will not be too late to send it to Tokyo."

Besides, Gao Dianshuai's article said that this person was a deserter, but he came to me to join the army, I think there must be a reason, he is just a small leader, is it difficult for Gao Yu to do it because of this person and me? ”

The staff next to him thought about it, so they asked Wang to come in. Wang Jin took Niu Gao and his mother into the house together, and when Zhong Shidao saw that Wang Jin was still with his family, he knew that he was sincerely taking refuge, and he was not a great evil, after all, it was difficult for filial piety to be evil since ancient times.

Zhong Shidao slapped the table and shouted, "Wang Jin! You are so bold, this paperwork is chasing you, you dare to come to me, do you think that the king is not powerful here? ”

Wang Jin arched his hand and said, "Xianggong, please listen to me, but there is a reason for this matter." Then, Wang Jin told him how to make an enmity with Gao Yu, how Gao Yu concocted him, and how he had no choice but to leave the capital.

Master Zhong nodded, these things were almost the same as he had guessed, and asked, "In that case, there is indeed a grievance!" However, the capital is far away, and it is difficult for me to verify, why are you coming to my house today? ”

Wang Jin arched his hand and said, "The villain has a martial arts, but there is no way to serve the country, recently I heard that there is a shortage of manpower here in Xianggong, so I want to come to Xianggong to serve the country, and in the future, I can also return to the capital in a bright and bright future, and I don't want to make this ability buried in the loess." ”

Zhong Shidao smiled and said, "What a big breath, what are you capable of?" ”

Wang Jin arched his hand and said, "The villain is good at using guns and sticks, and he can also bow and arrow. ”

Zhong Shidao nodded and said, "Okay, I have a lot of sect leaders here, you can choose three people to fight at will, if you win, I will accept you!" ”

Wang Jin said happily: "Thank you, Xianggong." ”

Saying that, Wang Jin retreated under the leadership of people, Zhong Shidao looked at Niu Gao, with his eyes, of course, he could see that Niu Gao also had martial arts, so he asked Niu Gao, "This strong man, who are you?" Aren't you worried about him? ”

Niu Gao arched his hand and said, "In Xia Niu Gao, Naihuang Jiang Dejiang Xiaolangjun is a horseman, and he was instructed by Xiaolangjun to escort Wang Jiaotou here, I know Wang Jiaotou's martial arts best, I'm afraid there are not a few people in your house who have fought him." ”

When Zhong Shidao heard this, he frowned, and the scribe next to him walked to the side and said, "This Jiang De, I have heard a lot recently, it is said that he is a young man, his family is very rich, he worshiped Liang Zhongshu as his uncle, and Cai Taishi is his grandfather, and he is appreciated by the official family, and it is said that he was promised a fellow scholar by the official family." ”

Zhong Shidao heard the word Cai Jing, and there was a trace of disgust in his heart, it turned out that he was abolished for ten years because of his discussion of the law of service and disobeying Cai Jing's will, and it was not until recent years that he was able to recover, but these years of training also let him know what to say and what not to say, he looked at Niu Gao, thinking that it was Cai Jing's intention that the king came here, so he no longer wanted the king to enter the Jingluo Mansion.

At this time, Wang Jin had already returned, and Zhong Shidao frowned and said, "What?" Is it defeated? ”

The duke next to him hurriedly said, "Fei Ye, Hui Xianggong, the head of the Wang sect is really a good gun, the three sect heads in our house fought him together, and they all fell in just a dozen rounds." That's amazing! ”

Master Zhong sighed and looked at Wang Jin, but he didn't want to accept Wang Jin anymore at this time, so he said, "You really have some martial arts, but I have a full quota here, and it is not easy to accept people, I will write a letter for you, you go to my brother in Weizhou, but he is short of people." ”

Although Wang Jin didn't understand why Zhong Shidao was reluctant to accept him, he still thanked him, and then left with Zhong Shidao's letter.

"Xianggong, since this person may be related to the Taishi, will we do evil to the Taishi?" The staff next to him said worriedly, he didn't want Zhong Shidao to be hidden in the snow for another ten years.

Master Zhong stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, although this person is strong in martial arts, he is only a martial artist, not to mention that if he is really a person from the Taishi, the Taishi will definitely not let that Niu Gao escort, I think about it now, I am a little too nervous." ”

The staff nodded in agreement.

——

"This old Zhong Jing has such a big reputation, and he is unwilling to accept the head of the sect, I said that the head of the sect, it is better to go back to Neihuang with me, Xiao Langjun said, as long as you are willing to go, there are thousands of people waiting to be led by you to train.

Wang Jin clenched his fists and said with a smile, "Let's go to Xiao Zhong Jingluo first, it's not appropriate to trouble Xiao Langjun all the time." ”

Niu Gao shrugged and said, "You can go as long as you say, I don't have any opinion, Xiao Langjun said at the time, send you to safety." ”

Wang Jin and his entourage came to Weizhou again, here is the defense of Zhong Shizhong, he saw Zhong Shidao's letter, and let Wang Jin and his subordinate generals fight against each other, overjoyed, even said that his brother took care of himself, such a warrior also sent to his account, but Wang Jin is guilty after all, and there is no military merit, so he first entered the house as the head of the sect.

After Wang Jin settled down, he was ready to let Niu Gao go back, but Niu Gao was not in a hurry at all, walk here today, walk there tomorrow, he has gold and silver in his hands, and he has a good martial arts, plus he is arrogant, and the amount of wine is good.

Wang Jin saw that he was mixing well, and the training of the Western Army had been tight recently, and he didn't have time to take care of Niu Gao, so he let him play everywhere, and just like that, the time came in April and May.

On this day, Niu Gao was wandering on the street with his new friend, about to find a place to eat and drink, when he suddenly heard a cheer, Niu Gao said to the big man opposite, "Ti Shi, where is this applause?" ”

The big man on the opposite side had a round face, big ears, a straight nose and a square mouth, and a raccoon dog beard on the cheeks. The head is wrapped in a sesame Luo Wanzi turban, two Taiyuan Mansion New Silk gold rings on the back of the head, wearing a parrot green silk robe, a civil and military double-strand crow green silk around the waist, and a pair of eagle claw leather four-seam dry yellow boots. The big man touched his beard and said, "It must be somewhere new to sell art, so applauded, I'm afraid I have some ability, why don't we go and have a look." ”

When the two of them parted from the crowd, they saw that there were more than a dozen sticks inside, and more than a dozen plasters were spread on the ground, a plate was held, and paper marks were inserted on it, and two men were fighting, one was covered in flesh and wearing short clothes, and the other was naked, with nine dragons on his body.

As soon as Niu Gao saw the tattoo on his body, he exclaimed, "But Shi Dalang, Shi Jiazhuang? ”

The two separated abruptly, and one looked at Niu Gao, and said happily, "It's Brother Niu!" Where is my Master? ”

Another person stepped forward and said to Shi Jin, "Da Lang, is this the golden cow you said a few days ago?" ”

Niu Gao laughed, stepped forward and hugged Shi Jin and said, "How did you get here?" Come on, let me introduce, this is Ti Shi Luda on the Xiao Zhong Jing Lu Mansion, Lu Ti Ha, this is the apprentice of Shi Jin, the head of the Nine Pattern Dragon Sect, this is..."

Shi Jin took over and said, "This is also one of my masters, although he is not as advanced in martial arts as Wang Jiaotou, but he also makes a gun and a stick, because he once fought a tiger at home, and was called Li Zhong, a tiger general!" ”

Li Zhong arched his hand, he should have seen it, Luda admired Wang Jin's martial arts very much, and heard that he was Wang Jin's apprentice, so he also had a good impression, and said, "Since we met, it is also fate, why don't we go to eat and drink together?" ”

Niu Gao smiled and said, "That's right, Da Lang, your master went to the Xiao Zhong Jingluo Mansion today to be the head of the sect, and we have to be busy every day, we have eaten and drunk, and after dark, we will go to find your master to eat and drink together." ”

Li Zhong hurriedly turned around to clean up and said, "I'll go when I clean up." ”

Luda looked at Li Zhong's mother-in-law and mother, and felt a little impatient, but for the sake of Wang Jin and Niu Gao, he waited for Li Zhong to pack up the medicine bag and send the gun and stick, and then went to the wine shop to eat and drink together.

The four of them turned around and came to a famous hotel of the Pan family under the state bridge. In front of the door, a lookout pole was picked, and the wine was hung, floating in the air.

The four of them sat down, and Niu Gao sighed, "It's a pity that my Xiaolang Junqiong Building has not yet opened here, otherwise you must have to drink that Qiong wine once." ”

Several people are good drinkers, and they are a little greedy when they hear it, Luda rubs his hands and says, "Brother is good and bad, every day he says that the Qiong wine is good, but he can't see it, but he is hungry to death." ”

Li Zhong said with a smile, "Although I haven't drunk it, I also saw that Qionglou when I went to the Daimyo's Mansion, and it is indeed a good restaurant, what?" Is it from Big Brother Niu's family? ”

Niu Gao said with a look of anger, "That Qionglou is opened by my Xiaolangjun, the magic of my Xiaolangjun, I can't finish talking about it for a few days, by the way, Da Lang, you first tell me how you got here, why do you make a living by selling guns and sticks?" ”

Ruda listened to a few people, touched his mouth, felt a little dry, and shouted, "Shop! Hurry up and bring the wine and meat! ”

The shopkeepers all knew Luda, and soon served wine and meat, and Shi Jin also began to say, "This matter is a long story, after Master and Brother Niu left, I often drank and had fun with Zhu Wu and others, and suddenly one day, I went to the county to do business, and saw someone molesting the people's daughter, so I stepped forward and beat the person, and left his name."

Who knew that this was a disaster, after a few days, there was a government official to arrest me, saying that I colluded with bandits, I thought it was Zhu Wu's affair at first, and I thought that I was doing things alone, and it was normal for the government to arrest me, anyway, it was not a crime to kill my head, so I thought that I could make some money and money, and I could pass, so I followed the government officer to the county office.

Who knew that the county official had no evidence at all after a long time, but that day I beat the younger brother of the county official's mother-in-law, and I was so angry that I scolded the dog official on the spot! He was beaten by him, and he didn't have any credentials, so he just beat me, but the matter was known by the Zhu Wu brothers, they opened up the relationship, and fished me out, I returned to the village, only to find that the Zhuangzi had been destroyed by the dog official, there was no money, the field deed was burned, Zhu Wu persuaded me to go up the mountain, I thought about it, the dog official said that I colluded with bandits, if I really went up the mountain, wouldn't it mean that he was right, so after some resignation, came here to find my master. ”
