Chapter 958 After the happy event, it is a mourning
The marriage between his sister-in-law and the Guanzhong brothers has ended, and Hua Rong can also go to Qingzhou without worry. Xiao Tang and a group of brothers set off for Hua Rong's practice, and it was no problem.
Liu Fa, who was convicted by the imperial court, was imprisoned in a military prison, and he had been stabbed in the cheek by a penman, and the place was stacked with the prison camp on Shamen Island. Although Han Cunbao took the path of Zheng Juzhong's senior member of the DPRK and tried his best to exonerate Liu Fahan, Zheng Juzhong was bent on fighting for power with Cai Jing, Tong Guan and other powerful ministers, although he also planned to make a big fuss about attacking political opponents from Liu Fa's unjust, false and wrongful case, but now that the holy will has been decided, it is difficult to change it, and Ren Zheng Juzhong also has the political forces to wrestle with the power of the DPRK and China, and he is helpless.
On the same day, Liu Fa was going to be escorted to Shamen Island, and Wang Huan, Han Cunbao, Zhang Kai and others had to plan to wait for Liu Fa before he set off, intending to escort Liu Fa's escort with gold and silver and spoils. As for Shi Xiu, Shi Qian and other brothers who had been ordered by Xiao Tang, they were well prepared, and when Liu Fa set off on the road, they were also ready to follow him secretly to protect Liu Fa's life......
Three days later, it was the day when Liu Jingluo set off on his way to be escorted to Salmon Island...... Xiao Tang thought in his heart, Xiao Jiasui was also ready to leave for Erlong Mountain on Jingdong Road at this time, and dispatched soldiers and horses in the cottage to capture the prison city of Shamen Island, and he might send Liu Fa together with Wang Huan, Han Cunbao and others.
But just as Xiao Tang was about to instruct his companions to go to Wang Huan, Han Cunbao and others' mansions to discuss how to send Liu Fa, he saw Yan Qing enter the hall with a letterhead in his hand, and Yan Qing's expression was also very solemn, and he said to Xiao Tang: "Brother, there is a letter from Xiao Jiaji......
Xiao Tang saw that Yan Qing's face was different, and he was also shocked in his heart, what happened to the north side of the Mo River, he hurriedly took the letterhead from Yan Qing's hand, and only read a few lines roughly, Xiao Tang's face changed immediately, and he couldn't help but say in surprise: "What? The teacher is dead!? ”
It turned out that the letterhead said: Originally, Zhou Dong taught Yue Fei, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai, the four apprentices, to learn literature on two days and martial arts on a single day. It's just that Yue Fei's biological father Yue He is seriously ill, and his body and bones are not as good as day by day, Zhou Tong thought that now the skills of his righteous son Yue Fei and the three apprentices have improved to a certain extent, in order to teach Yue Fei's biological father Yue He to feel relieved, it is also time to teach Yue Fei, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai to report for the Wuju Township Test and show their skills.
Yue Fei's family, who were originally born in Tangyin County, Xiangzhou, moved to Qilin Village in Huang County, Neihuang County, Daimyo's Mansion because of the flood, although later Yue Fei, Wang Gui, Tang Huai, Zhang Xian and other parents hoped for their son Jackie Chan, and looked forward to the teaching of the famous teacher Zhou Dong and moved their family to Xiao Jiaji in Zongcheng County, Daimyo's Prefecture.
Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai have been taught by Zhou Tong's words and deeds for many years, and their respective grades are excellent, and all kinds of subjects are also among the best, as for Yue Fei, who has few rivals among his peers, is even more dominant, and has been appreciated by Li Chun, the county commander of Neihuang County, and also presented him with a BMW of Shenjun, and set up a banquet to treat Zhou Dong and Yue Fei, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai.
The righteous son he painstakingly cultivated was so competitive, which naturally made Zhou Tong feel very relieved and joyful, he always came to talk about juvenile madness, and on the way back to Xiaojiaji in Zongcheng County, he galloped wildly with Yue Fei, but because of his age, he ran hot, sweating and panting, and when he returned to the market town, his eyes were dizzy, his chest and abdomen were swollen, and his body was also cold and hot.
Yue Fei and several other disciples immediately went to serve when they heard this, and Bian Xiang, Yang Lin, Chen Guang and others from the Xiao family, Lu Junyi and others from the Daimyo Mansion all asked famous doctors to treat Zhou Dong, but because Zhou Dong was already in his last years, his illness was getting more and more serious......
Zhou Tong knew that he was terminally ill and his life was over, and he thought that he would die soon, so he called Lu Junyi, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, Tang Huai, Wang Gui and other disciples before he died. Before he died, he not only asked Wang Gui and others to assist Yue Fei and be loyal to the country, but also said that his beloved disciple Xiao Tang was very pleased because of his repeated miraculous achievements in the side court, but he also had to focus on national affairs and did not have to come back to mourn and worship......
After the death of Zhou Tong, Lu Junyi and Zhang Yuanwai, Wang Yuanwai and others prepared clothes and coffins, and the coffin stopped at Xiaojiaji. Yue Feidu set up a reed shed in front of the selected grave, and wanted to do his filial piety for Zhou Dong's tomb. The Xiao family concentrated on Bian Xiang, Yang Lin, Xue Yong and other brothers, thinking that such a major event must also be known to their brother earlier, so they immediately sent someone to send a flying pigeon biography and spread it to the Xiao Tang Mansion in Bianjing.
After reading the funeral letterhead, Xiao Tang's face was pale, and he was extremely depressed in his heart, his martial arts can be in such a situation today, and it is indispensable to the painstaking efforts of his mentor Zhou Dong. Yan Qing couldn't help but sigh when she saw Xiao Tang's sad expression, and said: "Xiao Yi also knows the pain in his brother's heart, but everyone has their own destiny and can't ask for it...... After all, the deceased is gone, I wonder if my brother plans to return to Xiao Jiaji to mourn? ”
"Although my teacher wants me to take national affairs as the most important thing and don't have to go back to mourn and worship him, but with the master-apprentice relationship, can I only stay in Bianliang, Tokyo and be indifferent?"
Xiao Tang sighed, he thought to himself according to the records in history, and then estimate the time, now it is indeed almost the time when Zhou Dongyang's life is over, no one can avoid the birth, old age, sickness, and death in the world, but even if Xiao Tang has some preparations in his heart, after all, he was favored by Zhou Dong, and he taught all his life's mastery to himself, and they also have a deep master-apprentice relationship with each other. But I didn't expect that it would be the last meeting of the two of them in this life, and I was still a little difficult to accept in my heart.
Xiao Tang also thought that Zhou Yunqing, the son of Zhou Dong, also died in the Song-Xia War, and there were no heirs under his knees, so he only cared about painstakingly cultivating young people like Yue Fei to serve the country, and he was also deeply affected by his kindness in teaching martial arts, even if he didn't have the opportunity to see Zhou Dong for the last time before his death, as a disciple, of course he had to pay homage to his deceased teacher.
After making up his mind, Xiao Tang said to Yan Qing again: "Now that San Lang and the Shiqian brothers are secretly escorting Liu Jingluo to Shamen Island, there is no need to worry about his life for the time being, and the Jiasui brothers have also set off to Erlong Mountain, and I can rest assured that he will dispatch soldiers and horses... There is nothing else important in Bianjing for the time being......
The teacher died, except for his righteous son Yue Fei brother and three apprentices, there was no parent and son to do the way of the son of man for him, and now the bad news has taught me to know, no matter what, I have to rush back to Xiao's family to worship his old man overnight, and the court has explained the reason, and I must be able to understand it...... The urgency of the funeral can't be delayed, Xiaoyi, you also pack your bags with me, and then order some of your own henchmen, I will wait on the road together, and leave Jingbei to go back to Xiaojiaji. ”
