"Jiang Fenglie came to fulfill his promise and brought a 2,000 stone blessing ship for Brother Zhao."

"Ouyang Guanhou came as promised to bring the news of the hundred households to Brother Zhao."

The above two good news cannot withstand the shock brought by the appearance of the third person.

"Song Chenwen Tianxiang thanked the righteous people for their help."

When Wen Tianxiang, who was wearing a round-necked green shirt and a light green scarf, was elegant and dignified to thank everyone, except for Zhao Lie, Ma Nanchun, and Jueyuan, who each returned the salute in a way that suited them, the rest of the people were too lowly and knelt down or hugged their fists or kowtowed.

Wen Tianxiang is an orthodox Confucian scholar, the most particular about etiquette, Confucianism has a hundred words, thousands of avenues, and its core is a ritual word.

Ma Nanchun himself is a high-ranking official from the fourth rank of the dynasty, and it is normal for him to meet with the courtesy of colleagues. Jueyuan is an outsider, and it is reasonable to worship Buddha and not sentient beings. The Great Song Dynasty did not kneel and salute, but the identities of the two were too far apart, one was the prime minister of the dynasty, and the other was the cloth and grass people, and the latter knelt and bowed as a matter of course.

Almost everyone had no problem returning the gift, except for one person - Zhao Lie.

Strictly speaking, Zhao Lie, like the Ding family's sisters and brothers, Shi Yang, Wang Ping'an, Yang Zheng and others, is just a cloth cloth. In the face of a dignified prime minister's salute, he had to kneel down and clench his fists. However, Zhao Lie just owes his hand, and that's it.

Ma Nanchun and Wen Tianxiang were officials in the same dynasty, and they were also Confucian scholars, so they knew a lot about the temperament of this prime minister, and they chuckled in their hearts, and secretly said that they were broken. He knew Zhao Lie's temperament, and knew that this person didn't know etiquette, if it wasn't for Wen Tianxiang's appearance too suddenly, he should have fulfilled his obligation to remind. Now I can only use Zhao Lie's identity as a monk to resolve it.

Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou didn't expect Zhao Lieyi to be like a prince, and they all shook their heads secretly - this person is self-respecting and rude, is this trip wrong?

To the surprise of the three of them, Wen Tianxiang's original face did sink for a moment, and there were signs of flicking his sleeves, but it was quickly replaced by a surprised expression. Then, the surprise in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and he suddenly asked, "Who is Zhao Yishi?" ”

Zhao Lie didn't know why Wen Tianxiang was interested in his hometown, and he didn't know what the name of his hometown was in this era, so he said vaguely: "Jiangsu and Zhejiang." ”

Wen Tianxiang nodded secretly, and then asked an even stranger question: "Did Zhao Yishi know Wen before?" ”

Zhao Lie blinked: "This ...... If this 'once upon a time' refers to half a month ago, then it is recognized. Prime Minister, what do you say? ”

Wen Tianxiang looked at Zhao Lie for a while, and said with a hearty smile: "That's it." The negative hand game looked around at the surrounding environment, and did not mention the rudeness anymore.

Of course, Zhao Lie would not think that Wen Tianxiang and the others made a special trip to visit him, the life-saving benefactor, so why did they come here?

Ouyang Guanhou gave a thumbs up: "Brother Zhao is really amazing, with the strength of just eight people, he defeated hundreds of Chaoyang thieves, and even killed Chen Yi, a stubborn thief who has been rampant in Fujian and Guangzhou for many years......"

It seems that the news spread quite quickly. Chen Yi has caused serious losses to Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou and other heroes of righteousness, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a mortal enemy. Zhao Lie killed the henchmen of this Fujian and Guanghao heroes, Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou came to thank him for his convenience, and sending a promised warship and inquiring about the news was also the proper meaning of the question.

It's just that why did Wen Tianxiang also come? The dignified Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty is not so broken.

Jiang Fenglie didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "I am waiting for this trip to mainly escort the prime minister to find the queen mother's holy ......."

Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou did not avoid hardships and dangers, crossed many enemy nets, and escorted Wen Tianxiang to Gushan, of course, they did not make a special trip to visit or thank Zhao Lie, the life-saving benefactor, but had important things to entrust.

At that time, it had been nearly two months since the tragic Battle of Qishan, and the Song Dynasty had been wiped out, and only a few generals such as Zhang Shijie and Su Liuyi led their troops to escort Empress Dowager Yang and some courtiers to flee and hide on an isolated island at sea.

Although the Yuan army led by Zhang Hongfan knew that this part of the remnants of the late Song Dynasty would hide on an island to survive, but in the vast sea, the islands were dotted around, and with the search ability of this era, it was not easy to find them in the short term.

Zhang Hongfan searched for nearly a month after the war, and also exterminated several remnants of the Song army, seized more than ten large and small ships, and never caught the two big fish he wanted to catch: Empress Dowager Yang and Zhang Shijie.

Nearly 100,000 troops, people eat horses and chew, and there are a large number of ships to maintain, in order to chase and kill a small number of remnants, it is really unbearable. So Zhang Hongfan handed over the post-war affairs to Li Heng, the deputy marshal of the capital, and led the army back to the north. Of course, there is another reason why he is in such a hurry to the north that it is inconvenient to declare, that is, to use his great contribution to the destruction of the Song Dynasty to seek personal favors for the imprisonment of his eldest son Zhang Qi and the crime of escaping the late Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty.

As the Yuan army pulled out, the entire South China Sea was much calmer, the fishermen requisitioned along the coast moved back one after another, and the number of ships searching at sea was also greatly reduced. Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou were able to send Wen Tianxiang to Gushan relatively safely. Their destination, of course, was not the mountain of the Song Dynasty, but the location of the last Song dynasty.

"We have already made contact with Pivotal Envoy Zhang and Su Dianshuai, and they will send ships to meet us when we arrive at the Xingchao to see the Empress Dowager. But after entering the Guangdong Sea, the more south they went, the tighter the search of the Yuan army. We were worried that we would be intercepted by the Yuan ships before we could make contact with the Song ships. Gale and the crown marquis are just a puffer, and they die on the battlefield as they wish in their lives, but the prime minister is the pillar of the country and cannot be lost. Therefore, he asked the Zhao brothers to help and escort the prime minister to the court. How is it? ”

After listening to what Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou said, Zhao Lie was stunned. No wonder, it turned out that he learned that he had defeated the pirates with a disparity in strength and killed the thief chieftain. This is to find a helper.

At the end, Jiang Fenglie added another sentence: "With such a talent as Brother Zhao, he has the merit of saving the prime minister in the past, and he has the act of destroying the Haikou in the future. ”

Zhao Lie rolled his eyes in his heart, what future is unlimited, you think this is the beginning of the founding of the country. A dynasty has no future of its own, whose future do you want to protect? However, Jiang Fenglie at least said that one sentence was not wrong, Wen Tianxiang really cannot afford to lose. I finally rescued people and changed history a little, but I was caught back by the Yuan soldiers halfway through, and let history return to the original point, so wouldn't I be busy in vain? Anyway, there seems to be nothing to do during this period of time except training, so let's do our best for this.

"Okay, I'll arrange it, and I'll go with you - what's the destination?"

Ask about the destination, and it's a sure thing. Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Guangya, Qianao." ”
