Text Chapter Ninety-Four: Flowing Clouds Scattered Like Smoke The Least Years of Vertical and Horizontal Growth
Today is sunny, the winter sun is a little warm, the young Cui Hong took off the sword wrapped in several layers of cotton cloth on his back, carefully untied it, stroked and wiped it, with a smirk on his mouth.
It's been more than ten days in a row, and he does this several times a day without annoyance, although the scabbard and the hilt have not been wiped with a trace of dirt, and he still enjoys it.
"Idiot! It's chattering again, huh! Take it over and show it to my sister. ”
"Ahh …… I'd rather admit that you are a senior sister in the future, but the sword will not be given to you. ”
"So stingy! But just to see, what's the big deal? ”
“…… Still can't do it, I'm afraid you won't pay me back! Master said that whether I can hold this sword in the future depends on my own ability! The young man stubbornly and lovingly held "Wuji" in his arms.
Similar conversations have been repeated many times.,The boy who is willing to let little Lori do anything on weekdays is the only one who will not compromise on this matter.。
Xiaoice pouted, no longer embarrassed this honest child, although the sword is really good, but it is not suitable for herself, the master must be justified in giving it to Cui Hong and not giving it to himself. The delicate figure in the red shirt flew onto the back of the "champion" and went to gallop to train.
Cui Hong wrapped the sword again and put it back on his shoulder. When I came to the shallow ditch that was split by a sword, I silently recalled the scene I saw from afar that day, and my mood was still inexplicably excited.
Snow had filled the ditches, leaving only faint traces. Now, his feelings for the little marquis master have changed from reverence to shock.
"Although I can't do it so well, I can work hard to learn what the little marquis taught me, and I can help him do something in the future, and it will not live up to this life." Cui Hong, who has gradually faded the hatred in his heart, now has stronger expectations for the future than ever.
But in the makeshift tents not far from him, the mood was completely different.
Everyone in the Flowing Cloud Gang is guarded here. They don't know what fate they will face, and no one tells them about their future.
It was only on that day that Hou Yuanzhao of Changle, in his capacity as the lord of the land under his feet, officially announced that these people needed to compensate for the damage caused in Changle Plateau, well, that is, they needed to work here for a year without compensation to atone for their previous sins.
At that time, listening to the little marquis's slightly ridiculous tone, and looking at the pride on his face as if he had succeeded in his plan, no one thought that this was an underage child.
It's just that if you really work hard, you can save your life? Cutting down trees, flattening wasteland, piling up rocks, and ...... hands that had once been accustomed to the sword of murder, began to do these chores.
It's not that no one thought about escaping, but looking at the powerful cavalry patrolling back and forth in the distance, the cold and shining bows and arrows, and the serious consequences that will be caused after escaping, the thoughts that have just sprung up for some people have been quietly suppressed again.
Let's work in peace! If you don't want to be punished. Yes, the serious consequence is the Nine Clans.
In fact, neither Changle Hou nor the people who supervised them had said such a thing, but all of these people, who were now servants, had the same fear of this.
Because, once a god-like existence in their hearts, Guo Jie, the leader of the Liuyun Gang, was already sentenced by Ming Zhengcanon in Chang'an City yesterday and beheaded according to the law!
At the same time, the additional giveaway is that all the family property of the Guanxi Guo family was confiscated, and the nine clans ......!
Now, that prophecy that everyone thought was gibberish had come true so quickly.
On the huge work field, looking at the figure that was beating horses far away surrounded by a group of people, everyone lowered their heads, cut wood and stones hard, and no longer dared to look directly.
In the past few days, even the housekeeper Yuan Yi has seen that the little marquis's mood is a little urgent at this time. In his words, the start-up capital is also available, and the manpower is also available, and you can roll up your sleeves and do it immediately! How can you not be in a hurry?
Today is the third time that Yuan Zhao has come here after the snow fell on Changle Plateau, and unlike the previous two chaotic scenes, the order this time is obviously much better.
"The wooden house you live in should be built as soon as possible, after the early winter, the weather will soon turn cold, and the tent will not be able to live in people."
Looking at the rows of houses under construction on the sunny slope, Yuan Zhao casually asked.
"Hou Ye rest assured, there is a forest thatch at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, and it is very fast to build such a house, and it will take three or four days at most to move in."
"Well, these people can't lose one of them because they are hungry, look at what a good and strong labor force this job and this physique are!"
Yuan Zhao was talking to the people around him, and he didn't know whether to praise the work done by people or the people who did it.
"Boy, Hugh is going to be poor! A small ploy has brought so many Jianghu guests to serve as free labor, and the scheming is deep enough! ”
"Where did Dou Xiang come from? This is not the work of the boy, thanks to the assistance of His Majesty, as well as the support of your elder and several ministers of the court. Huh"
But I saw that the person who was talking to Yuan Zhao was tall, with slightly white temples, riding on a horse, not angry and arrogant. It was the prime minister of the dynasty, Wei Qihou Douying, who didn't know why he was here today.
Speaking of which, whether it is recorded in the history books or the experience of several interactions, Yuan Zhao still has a very good impression of this old man, so he has a close attitude towards him.
Because of the dispute between Dou Ying and Taiwei Tian Jue in the Golden Palace that day, the two were rude in front of the emperor, and were reprimanded by the Son of Heaven to go home and think about it, and temporarily got rid of the case of government affairs.
Today, he suddenly slipped to the Changle Hou Mansion and asked Yuan Zhao to lead the way, and he wanted to come to Changle Plateau to see what was going on.
Coincidentally, in the past few days, Gongzi Xu Le, Nie Yi, Sima Xiangru, Qian Shopkeeper and others have gathered in the Hou Mansion to discuss things. Since Prime Minister Dou has a life, of course he can't be pushed back, so everyone set off together and came out of Chang'an to Changle Yuan.
At this time, seeing the scene of thousands of people busy working, among the people, the money shopkeeper and Zhao Yuan glanced at each other, and they were still very emotional.
Many of these Liuyun gangs used to be their old acquaintances, and many years ago, they also drank together and fought against each other, but later, they turned against each other and became accomplices in chasing and killing Miss and Madame.
Think about those years of hiding and fleeing, for more than ten years, Master Ju Meng and those brothers have died one after another, leaving only five or six of their own brothers, protecting Lingzhi and Su Hongyun to hide in the wells of Chang'an City, worrying.
Now, they are the guests of the horse, but they have become prisoners, and the Flowing Cloud Gang in the world is expected to disappear soon, right?
I really didn't expect that the ragged child who followed Mrs. Su to Fanxue Tower at the beginning would hide such a ability on his body!
Yesterday, the brothers witnessed with their own eyes on the streets of Chang'an that Guo Xie was beheaded and abandoned in the city. The enemy is beheaded, and the great revenge is avenged. The huge man hugged his head and wept, tears pouring down.
Last night was undoubtedly the happiest day in more than ten years.
When Yuan Zhao arrived, he accepted everyone's toast. But whether it was Mrs. Su, who was already crying and red-eyed, or Lingzhi, who seemed to be extremely well-behaved, or the brothers who kept pouring a bowl of wine with a red face, they didn't say the word thank you.
These are the people who treat him as a relative, and all the gratitude goes without saying. Later, they were all drunk.
Silent building, a good night, I don't know what mood the girl seems to be very calm, on the highest eaves of the Fan Xue Building, she snuggled up to the Yuan Zhao arm who brought her up, and for the first time she seriously saw the night of Chang'an near and far.
There was a melodious flute sounding, which was the first time she had heard him play the song "Bright Moon Thousands of Miles to Send Acacia". Later, she had already played much better than him, but this time, Lingzhi felt that in this world, he still played the best ......!
Well, the result of blowing the wind on the roof of the building in the winter night is ~ because of the wind cold, Lingzhi is sick.
Yuan Zhao hurriedly boiled herbs for her, and seeing that she was fine, in the face of everyone's unclear eyes, she fled back to the Changle Marquis Mansion early in the morning.
I was thinking about going back for a while, and then I went to see if the Ganoderma lucidum was better, but I heard Dou Ying sigh again.
"On this Changle Plateau, the old man also came here to hunt on horseback, but he didn't look at it carefully, and today he found that the area is so vast!"
"Yes, the ground is indeed a little bigger, the Son of Heaven is deeply gracious, and the boy should do his best to live up to the grace of God."
"Haha! It's rare that you can think like that. Although the old man was born in the army and has a rough temperament, he can also see that at a young age, his strategy is no longer inferior to those ministers in the court. ”
Yuan Zhao hurriedly thanked him, not daring to praise it. But listening to Dou Ying's tone, it changed to stern.
"Boy, no matter whether it is public or private, the old man has a word of warning today! The so-called 'one tree does not make a forest, and one hand cannot hold the sky', you must remember. In this world, even if you have the ability to reach the heavens, if you don't follow the laws of heaven and the laws of the world, it will be difficult to achieve great things. Yin Jian is not far away, and the overlord of Western Chu is a living example! "Concise and sincere.
Yuan Zhao listened, waited for it, and bowed down on the horse, "Dou Xiang's good words, the kid remembers it in his heart!" ”
Dou Ying was relieved to see that he had such a humble attitude after listening to his exhortation.
"The children can be taught! Ha ha. Seeing that you kid is so obedient, the old man can't help but do you a small favor. Speaking of this, he stroked his beard, and when he saw that Yuan Zhao was listening respectfully, he continued.
"Speaking of which, the old man has little money in his house, and it is useless for a while, so I will leave it to you to move in and use it for the time being. As for the old friends, there are also a few friends of the noble family, relying on the past origins, the old man is cheeky, and he has also raised some for you, the lack of money and manpower, even if he speaks, the old man can still make a little effort, boy, how? ”
At this time, Yuan Zhao was really moved. I didn't expect this old man Dou to do so much for himself quietly?! What kind of spirit is this? This is simply the "Lei Feng" spirit of the Han Dynasty!
He hurriedly jumped off his horse and respectfully re-saluted. Dou Ying sat on the horse, with a smile on his face, and accepted his gift with peace of mind.
Dou Ying's words, all the people around him heard them clearly! They are all people who understand, and most of the meanings outside the words are already clear in their hearts.
Who is Dou Ying? He was the prime minister of the dynasty, the old minister of the three dynasties, the nephew of the empress dowager, and the representative of the noble and meritorious family.
The above words he said contained too much information! This level of support is really important to Yuan Zhao at the beginning of the game.
Everyone was secretly happy for Yuan Zhao in their hearts, and with this help, they would definitely get twice the result with half the effort, and they couldn't help but be more confident in the prospects of Changle Yuan.
"No matter who it is, whether it is public or private, as long as it is someone who has helped me out of good intentions, the reward in the future will definitely exceed your imagination. And the future of this land will definitely surprise everyone. ”
There is a long roar like a owl, everyone looks far away, on the grass, where the hooves of the horses are ridden, there are countless birds flying among the grasses, there are eagles flapping their wings and shooting feather arrows, flying straight to the sky, soaring into the clouds ......!
