Chapter Ninety-Seven: Lu Meets Li Qingzhao
When Li Jing left Kaifeng, he did not go to Li Gang to resign. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info At this time, Li Gang didn't know that he was so unkind to see himself, the matter of the Zhu family has not yet fermented, but in the upper circles, I am afraid that many people are already watching Li Gang's jokes. Li Jing stepped forward this time, almost looking for guilt.
So early in the morning, after waiting for Li Gang to go to court, let Li Daniu take the Zhang family and leave Kaifeng Mansion. His itinerary is relatively slow, on the one hand, to take care of the Zhang family, but more importantly, to wait for Master Li. After him, Master Li would also make an excuse to leave Tokyo and follow Li Jing to Shandong. She's going to live a different life.
Sure enough, in just three days, Li Jing waited for the next Li Shishi, she led the two maids, found a small carriage, came slowly, as soon as she saw Li Jing, she couldn't hide the joy in her heart, worried that her whereabouts would be discovered, so she gave up the carriage, rode on the horse, and wore a cloak on her head and walked side by side with Li Jing. And Li Jing was even more insidious, not only chopping Master Li's carriage into pieces, but also pretending to be a robber, getting some blood stains and scattering them on the official road. The group slowly walked towards Shandong, along the way, Zhang's was a Li Shishi chat, and Li Shishi's also knew that this Zhang was probably very important to Li Jing, and along the way, he took care of him very much, but Zhang did not feel lonely. Although she was curious about why Master Li followed Li Jing, she still knew each other very well and didn't ask.
"Li Lang, this is the feeling of freedom, after leaving Tokyo, I knew that I was still alive." Master Li looked at the Yellow River in the distance, smiling, her smile was sincere, not like in Kaifeng, forced to smile.
"If you like it, we can come out more often in the future." Li Jing held Master Li in his arms and whispered: "Master Li is dead, from today onwards, the past Master Li has disappeared, and you are now the newborn Master Li." ā
"Yes." Master Li nodded, but her delicate body was leaning on Li Jing, these days, although the two of them have some ambiguous movements, they are basically abiding by etiquette, and they are on the way.
"Young master, there is a fight ahead." At this time, a horse flew in the distance, but saw a guest from Lijiazhuang. jumped off the horse and said, "Dozens of bandits are fighting around a dozen villagers, as well as female dependents. ā
"Ladies and daughters?" Li Jing frowned when he heard it, in the troubled times, I don't know how many fights, even if there are ordinary fights, now that there is one more female dependent, Li Jing suddenly took it to heart.
"Li Lang, what should we do now?" Master Li looked at Li Jing with some concern
"Let's go! Since it's encountered, I have to take care of it. Li Jing helped Master Li put on his cloak and said, "Hey, the world is getting more and more chaotic now, and it has only been a long time since we left Kaifeng, and there are robbers." That's just a few dozen people, even if it's a hundred or ten people, I, Li Jing, can beat these guys so much that they don't even know their parents, and they don't do good serious people, but they are robbers. ā
After hearing this, Master Li couldn't help but burst out laughing, a little worry in his heart disappeared without a trace at once, although Li Jing was brave, but the real martial arts Master Li had never seen, but looking at the horses around, it must be no problem to escape if he can't beat it.
Just a mile or two away, Li Jing found dozens of people fighting around a carriage, some wearing Tsing Yi, some wearing miscellaneous clothes, but Tsing Yi was in a defensive position, the number was relatively small, and they were all guarding on both sides of the carriage. However, in the end, the number of people is smaller, and they are all at a disadvantage at this time.
"It's not good, Li Lang, it's Qingzhao. I know her carriage. Master Li suddenly lost his face, pointed to the carriage in the middle and said.
"It's a dog, it's actually Li Qingzhao." Li Jing's eyes narrowed, he didn't expect to meet Li Qingzhao here, and looking at it, I'm afraid it won't last long.?
"Da Niu, you are here to protect Madame." Li Jing took out the big knife beside him and ordered Li Daniu, but he rushed over.
The bandits over there were fighting around Li Qingzhao's servants, although they also noticed Li Jing and others, but they didn't take Li Jing and others to heart, after all, Li Jing only had three strong men, three women, and a small carriage. In their opinion, it is clear that the rich son came to play with his wife and concubine, I am afraid that when he sees such a situation, his first reaction is to run away, but what they didn't expect is that the other party not only did not run away, but rushed forward with a steel knife in his hand.
"Tiger, kill that kid." In the crowd, a bearded man said loudly.
"Good!" Soon a person rushed out of the chaotic army, also holding a big knife, with a hideous face, to kill Li Jing, but unfortunately, Li Jing didn't take him to heart at all, and the big knife in his hand turned into a lightning bolt, falling from the sky, as fast as lightning, the guy called the tiger, without even a little reaction, was killed by Li Jing.
Li Jing quickly crashed into it, the big knife in his hand flew, although his knife technique was problematic, but he had great strength, the bandits in front of him were not his opponents at all, and he was cut down by two or three people in an instant, but the long knife in his hand was also curled, and any treasure knife was used as a hammer, it was the result. Li Jing suddenly found that one of the people in the chaotic army had a spear in his hand, and killed him at the moment, but before the person could react, a cold light came, and the knife light passed through his chest. Then the spear in his hand fell into Li Jing's hand.
Li Jing turned the horse's head with a spear in his hand, the spear in his hand flew, although his strength was a little worse, but the speed was very fast, coupled with Zhou Dong's several days of training, it was not without effect, it was definitely not possible to deal with everyone like Lin Chong, and in the face of a few thieves in front of him, it was still very easy to kill him.
"Who is Your Excellency? You and I don't interfere with the water of the well, so why should you spoil me and wait for good things? The bearded man saw the spear flying in Li Jing's hand, and his men and horses were fighting and dressing up, and immediately knew that something could not be done, and said loudly: "You must know that my master is not easy to mess with." But if thou shalt turn away, I will offer a hundred taels of gold. ā
It's a pity that the answer to the other party is not words, but Li Jing's spear, since he meddled, there is no time to stop, not to mention that it is the famous Li Qingzhao who wants to save himself. There's no reason to let it go.
"Let's go." Seeing Li Jing so arrogant, the man's eyes flashed with hatred, but he was very familiar and led the remaining bandits to turn around and leave, facing a tough enemy like Li Jing, it was no longer possible for him and others to be low-grade, it was better to keep Li Jing's appearance in mind, and wait until next time to find a chance to complete the task.
"Li Lang, are you okay?" In the distance, Master Li saw that Li Jing had killed the robbers, and his heart was excited, and he drove his mount over.
Li Jing was about to speak, but he heard a cry from the carriage in the distance, and immediately screamed badly, and hurriedly rushed over with Master Li. Those subordinates who guarded Li Qingzhao did not dare to stop them.
"Dare to ask, it's Sister Qingzhao inside." Master Li looked at the carriage and hesitated for a while.
"Senior sister." A woman like a flower listened to Master Li's shout, and showed a head from the car, only to see that her face was frightened, her apricot eyes were red, she looked like she was only in her twenties, her face was ruddy, although she was sad, but there was still a trace of ruddy.
"It's really Sister Qingzhao." Master Li was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Sister Qingzhao, how could you be a thief." ā
"Let's not talk about this for the time being, Mingcheng was shot, how can this be done." Li Qingzhao's voice showed panic, Zhao Mingcheng is her heaven, if something happens, Li Qingzhao really doesn't know what to do.
"Li Lang, Mr. Zhao was hit by an arrow, how is this good?" After hearing this, Master Li hurriedly shouted to Li Jing behind him.
"Hit?" Li Jing was stunned, jumped off the horse, and got into the carriage without hesitation, and saw a young man with a blue and gray face lying on the carriage, although he lost too much blood, he could still see that he was a handsome guy.
"Brother Li Xian, Mingcheng, he?" Li Qingzhao didn't know Li Jing's name, and when he saw Master Li calling him Li Lang, he hurriedly called him a virtuous brother.
"Everyone Li, I'm afraid, I'm afraid you have to be prepared!" Li Jing saw that the arrow hit the heart, I am afraid that Da Luo Jinxian is coming, and there is no way, so he said with a slight sigh.
"It's all my fault, if I had come earlier, there wouldn't have been anything like this." Li Jing glanced at Zhao Mingcheng, Zhao Mingcheng's face was pale, even his breathing seemed to be nothing, if it was in the future life, it might be possible to save it, but now it is impossible, and it is impossible for the doctor in Niu Cha to save this person.
"That's fate." Li Qingzhao sighed and looked at Zhao Mingcheng who was lying down, and said, "What do we have in the Zhao family, gold and stone calligraphy and painting!" The entire Great Song Dynasty knew that Ming Cheng's home contained countless gold and stone calligraphy and paintings. ā
"Sister." Master Li couldn't help but say outside.
"Could it be that these people are here for the gold and stone calligraphy? It's really bold, isn't there anyone in the local government to take care of it? Li Jing said with some surprise: "Brother Mingcheng is the prime minister, but after the prime minister, someone actually treated him like this?" ā
"Since the death of my father-in-law, where can those officials take care of our family, you must know that Mingcheng's father is Cai Jing's political enemy, and now that Cai Jing is in power, naturally no official is willing to risk offending Cai Jing and help us?" Li Qingzhao said in a low voice: "Some time ago, Zhu Mian sent someone to ask for something of gold and stone, saying that it was a tribute to the Son of Heaven. Originally, I was going to send some to Zhu Mian, but Mingcheng was unwilling, he was unwilling to bow to the powerful. ā
"Qingzhao!" A faint voice came, Li Jing looked back, but saw that Zhao Mingcheng had slowly opened his eyes, and there was even a hint of ruddy on his face, and he immediately sighed, Zhao Mingcheng looked like this, I am afraid that he will return to the light, and he will die soon. He sighed and got out of the carriage, leaving the couple with one last bit of time.
"Li Lang?" Master Li looked at the carriage behind him with some worry.
"Hey, we're late." Li Jing sighed deeply, in his memory, Zhao Mingcheng died of illness, but now he was shot to death, this is a regrettable thing, but it is a pity that Li Qingzhao, such a woman has become a widow, Li Jing can see that she and Zhao Mingcheng are deeply affectionate, and they still have feelings, and now once Zhao Mingcheng dies, I really don't know what to do?
"What should Sister Zhao do in the future?" Master Li leaned on Li Jing's shoulder and said.
"Let's take Lijiazhuang together! The scenery of Dulonggang is not bad, it happens that you sisters are together, so it is convenient to take care of some. Li Jing thought about it, Li Qingzhao is still famous, if he can be included in his command, it is also a good thing, not to mention that Li Qingzhao is still a beauty, Li Jing generally has no resistance to beauties.
"That's all it can be." Master Li sighed for a while, and the arm holding Li Jing tightened.
At this time, a burst of pain came, heartbreaking, Li Jing suddenly knew that Zhao Mingcheng was dead, and he was a generation of people, so he died on both sides of the official road, and even now he didn't even come to the nearby county officials, and it was normal to think about it, if that group of people was really Zhu Mian's people, they would definitely have greeted the surrounding county officials, how could these county officials offend a southeast king like Zhu Mian because of the son of an outdated prime minister, not to mention that Zhao Mingcheng and Cai Jing had also offended, and it was impossible to help Zhao Mingcheng.
"Mrs. Zhao, the festival is good!" Li Jing sighed, although Zhao Mingcheng is not a good thing, and he has not left any merits in history, but after all, he is much better than a traitor like Cai Jing, and he can be regarded as thinking that everyone in Jinshi died in the wild like this, leaving Li Qingzhao a weak woman, even Li Jing felt sorry.
There was no one in the carriage to speak, only bursts of crying, which made Li Jing sigh in his heart, although it was not a troubled time, but it was not far from the troubled times, what could Li Qingzhao do as a weak woman?
He looked at Master Li not far away, and then thought of Lancome, Hu Sanniang and Pan Jinlian, and even Li Bei'er, etc., if something happened to him, what would happen to these women? may also live the same life as Li Qingzhao, lonely and miserable, and even bullied by others.
"No one can stop me." Li Jing clenched his fists, in this era, only his own strength is strong, in order to keep his money and women, in order to let himself live a life of superiority, Li Jing faced Zhao Mingcheng's death, so that he was firm in the direction of his progress.
"Uncle, let me persuade her!" Zhang stepped down from the carriage, looked inside the carriage, and said, "Now that the weather is hot, this place can't stay for a long time, no one knows if the enemy will come." ā
"There's a sister-in-law." Li Jing also nodded, now that the weather is hot, a corpse like Zhao Mingcheng can't be kept for too long, I'm afraid it can only be burned. I just don't know if Li Qingzhao may accept it? But what if it's unacceptable? What can a weak woman do at this time?
