Chapter 70: The Dark River is back
Chapter 70: The Dark River is back
said that on that day, Xu Qing used the poem "Remembering Shandong Brothers" to break the difficulties of Lu Jing and others, and for a time Xu Qing's reputation was known, and everyone in the government and the opposition knew it. Several poems circulated in the market have finally reached a conclusion, that is, Xu Chuliu, a general who is both civil and military, and there is a "pop song" of "Remembering Shandong Brothers" sung day and night in the red light district.
Some people are famous, and naturally some people are notorious, such as Lu Jing. Although no one can remember the name Lu Jing, when talking about the story of Xu Qing's poetry, he only mentions "an imperial historian". But Lu Jing himself felt that he had been greatly insulted, and those imperial histories also felt that they had no face, and they gritted their teeth one by one to hate Xu Qing, thinking about continuing to find Xu Qing unhappy. The imperial historians searched their intestines and scraped their stomachs, and a memo was soon written, ready for the next attack.
On Xu Qing's side, all the generals looked happily at the people who "reasoned" and compared the civil officials for the first time, and they were both happy and puzzled, so they almost didn't pick up Xu Qing and take a closer look to see where Xu Qing looked different.
After the dispersal of the court, those who did not have any specific affairs went back to their respective homes, and the emperor who had affairs invited him to have lunch and then continued to work. Xu Qing is just a court doctor, although he can participate in the court meeting, he is also a very idle official, and it doesn't matter if he disperses the court. When I went home, I still had a holy decree in my arms, and there was a eunuch all the way behind my buttocks, carrying a box and a cabinet, which was the reward that Li Yuan promised to Xun Xue'er and others last night, and there was one more item - to buy a house for three hundred silver.
"Whew!" A white shadow was thrown in from the side window of the carriage, Xu Qing turned his body away, dodged it, and looked at it, it was a small paper scroll. Xu Qing gradually rejoiced in his heart, because this was the method he taught Yang Cheng Yang Xin to transmit the letter, using thin bamboo as a tube, the paper roll as a letter, and the letter was hidden in the tube, blowing outside the three zhang, it could be projected, fast and secret.
Pick up the paper roll and open it, it says:
"The night is boundless, the river is the world!"
Seeing these eight words, Xu Qing smiled even more pleasantly. When I got home, I found that everyone in the family had gone out shopping and entered the room by myself. Xu Qing seemed to be shuttling around the house casually, but in fact, Xu Qing was trying his best to search the surroundings, and he had a feeling that the people of the Dark River were around.
"Come out......" Xu Qing couldn't help it, and shouted softly, but it was just to embolden himself and scare others like playing hide and seek. Unexpectedly, there were really two figures behind a wall, holding swords in both hands, with solemn faces, it was Yang Cheng and Yang Xin!
"Participate in the lord, I'll wait to come back and return to life!" The two walked towards Xu Qing and stood up and gave a fist salute. Xu Qing didn't know what to say when he saw this, so learn from Liu Bei to cry and mourn? Learn Cao Cao to laugh? Learn from Cao Cao, Liu Bei is difficult and easy to be exposed. Xu Qing shouted like Feng Gong for a while:
"Two brothers, I miss you guys, how are you doing?"
Yang Cheng and Yang Xin looked at each other and smiled: "Lord Lao is worried, I am fortunate not to disgrace my life......" Xu Qing can treat them as brothers, but they dare not be polite to Xu Qing. Xu Qing beckoned to them and said:
"Come on, come on, come in and drink saliva......"
"No!" The two of them excitedly took the water from Xu Qing's hand and drank it happily, although it was only clear water, but it was poured by Xu Qing himself, and brought it by himself, which shows that the lord "treats me like a brother and sister", how can I not be excited? After drinking the water, Xu Qing invited them to sit, but they were not used to sitting on a chair for the first time, and it felt like sitting on pins and needles, and it took a while to get used to it. After getting used to it, I leaned back on the back of the chair generously, and it was very comfortable to look at my expression. Xu Qing said slowly:
"Let's talk about your business, starting with leaving Xuzhuang......"
"After setting off from Xuzhuang, I waited for the lord's orders, first went to copy Yuwentong's old bottom, sold all his financial properties, and used a small part of the money to dismiss Yuwentong's subordinates, and a part to appease the dead warriors in Heihe before, and finally left more than five hundred taels to recruit troops."
"According to the will of the lord, those people we recruited are all clean, although they have also fallen into the grass and killed people, but they have not done anything that has lost their conscience. The ability is not small, there are talents in swords, guns, sticks, and espionage and investigation, if it is properly organized, even if it is placed at the end of the Sui Dynasty, it can be regarded as a force that enters the stream. ”
"Before coming, each of them was given ten taels of settling-in money, but only seventeen or eighteen were homemakers, and the others were alone. The people with families gave an extra five taels of travel fees, and let them move to Luonan first, and wait for the lord to decide on a place to settle. ”
"Scatter around Hongshan Township, don't gather together......" Xu Qing finished speaking and asked, "How many brothers are there?" ”
"Thirty-seven, not counting us...... The lord is going to take a look? ”
"Oh? Don't worry, I have to prepare a greeting gift, don't I? Xu Qing said this, but in fact, he thought in his heart: Ye only has three guns on his body, and one can't kill people, so he can't just meet so easily. Besides, the less you show up, the better, because you are called the Dark King. Xu Qing regretted it, why did he become the king at that time?
On the one hand, the brothers and brothers are hot, but on the other hand, they have hoods and masks to be guarded, which is not Xu Qing's hypocrisy, but the world is too hypocritical, so hypocritical that all dangers will be covered with a veil of warmth.
If you don't want to prevent it, you can call yourself the Dark King, if you let people know your true identity, it's not going to be "on fire", but about "catching fire". Xu Qing said: "Just let the two of you know my identity, for others, my identity is the top secret and cannot be divulged......"
"Whoa!" Yang Cheng Yang Xin dared not listen.
Xu Qing returned to the house, took three jars of spirits, and handed over the three hundred taels of silver given by Li Yuan to Yang Cheng and Yang Xin, and said to them: "If you are greedy, you can't chew it out, don't take the initiative to recruit people now, let's see if there is any sand in this group of people first." Also, you haven't forgotten the rules of the Dark River, have you? Yang Cheng Yang Xin heard this and replied:
"Dark River, the first military order is like a mountain, the second is like a brother, and the third is the people, these three rules were established when I was founded in Dark River, and they have not changed for a hundred years!"
"Mmmm, not bad......" Xu Qing nodded, it seems that his spiritual education is not bad.
"Lord, since it's inconvenient for you to check on everyone, then I'll bring a few powerful characters for you to palm, how about it?" Yang Xin proposed.
"Tomorrow...... And the location, huh...... Just go to Qujiang Pond and find a place. Xu Qing said, and Yang Xin nodded when he heard it.
"My lord, what's in this jar?" Yang Cheng hugged the three altars and asked, Xu Qing smiled and said, "This thing is precious, I will only send two altars to the prince and the prince......
"So expensive? Could it be ......" Yang Xin stretched his voice: "It's honey?!" ”
"......" Xu Qing rolled his eyes back.
