Chapter 9: A Plan of Discord

If he hadn't come to Jinling Mansion, Tong Biao might not have realized how narrow the place he had been staying all these years would have been in his life.

Tong Biao was originally a reckless man in the rivers and lakes, relying on the so-called general rivers and lakes and green forest heroes to rob the rich and help the poor for a living, of course, whether it is really robbing the rich and helping the poor is only clear in their own hearts, Tong Biao's grass is called Goutou Mountain, the mountains are all a gang of bandits, the government has repeatedly requisitioned but there is no gain, one is that the terrain in the mountains is complex, there are many jungles, and it is impossible to organize large-scale troops to go to the conquest; The second is that there are so many things in the Jin Kingdom, and they can't worry about worrying about a small thief's head mountain, so in the end, the bandits of the dog's head mountain have not been eliminated.

Originally, Tong Biao thought that he would live such a reckless life all his life, but he didn't expect that one day the person who was called "Mr. Panlong" by others would come to this Kotoushan and say that he wanted to recruit them. Everyone didn't believe it, thinking that it was a trick of the government, only to see that this "Mr. Panlong" was actually bitter to know the benefits to them, and they were convinced in a few words, and the bandits of Kotou Mountain immediately went down the mountain to accept the imperial court's recruitment, and this Tong Biao, as a bandit leader in Kotou Mountain, was also favored by this "Mr. Panlong" and stayed by his side to do things, which is nearly ten years......

Tong Biao has seen Beihai Mansion, but now that he sees this Jinling Mansion, it is even more majestic than Beihai. Looking at this Jinling Mansion City from afar, it is extremely rich in treasures, and the king is steaming, even this city gate is different from other places. Although it is located in the hometown of the south of the Yangtze River, the city gate is not as grand and wide as Beihai, but it is exceptionally solid and majestic. The crowd at the city gate is endless, the streets and alleys are also very lively, in this dense flow of people, an inconspicuous ordinary carriage is slowly driving into the city at this time, under the cover of the sunset, it is slowly driving to the Huang family in the capital.

In fact, like Yongqing County, the residences of those princes and nobles of Jinling Mansion, ministers and generals are all on the long street along the perimeter of this palace, and from the city gate to here, you can see these splendid and heroic mansions, one by one are arranged on this long street, and it is also because these mansions are located here, so the people of Jinling Mansion have given this long street a name, called --- Yongan Street.

At this time, the sunset was dim, facing the afterglow of the evening, Pang Zhong and his party were slowly driving the carriage on this Yongan Street, and in the carriage were Huang Meng and Jin Ren, Huang Meng was restless at this time, looking nervous in the carriage, and there were faint beads of sweat on his forehead. Although this Jin Ren is not calm in his heart, he is still calm and relaxed on the surface, and he seems to be very relaxed.

Jin Ren originally squinted his eyes as if he was taking a nap, but when he opened his eyes inadvertently, he saw that this Huang Meng was nervous, so he smiled and said to this Huang Meng: "Lord Huang doesn't have to be so nervous, this time you just need to take us into the mansion, as for other things, it won't bother you Lord Huang." ”

When Huang Meng heard this, he immediately laughed embarrassedly: "Yes, yes, yes, don't be nervous, don't be nervous." It's just that I don't know that Lord Jin turned out to be from the Jin Kingdom, Lord Jin is tall, really tall. At the end of this, Huang Meng was incoherent, his voice trembled, and he wiped his cheeks with the handkerchief he carried with him from time to time. It looks very funny.

Jin Ren laughed a few times, and then felt that the carriage was slowing down, and he knew that he was about to arrive at the mansion, and then he heard Pang Zhong's voice from outside the car: "It's here, Lord Jin." ”

Jin Ren looked at this Huang Meng with a smile and said, "Lord Huang, please." ”

Huang Meng had no choice but to get out of the carriage first, and when he got out of the carriage, he only looked up, and saw that the imposing mansion in front of him was not his uncle's mansion, and the plaque of "Dingguo Mansion" was hung high, which was very conspicuous.

"Oh, isn't this Young Master Meng? But I haven't seen you come back for a long time, so go and report to the master, Young Master Meng is back. At this time, when the servants were busy taking care of it, a manservant who was cleaning in front of the house actually saw this Huang Meng, and immediately shouted loudly, and then came up to say goodbye to this Huang Meng.

Jin Ren followed this Huang Meng and got out of the carriage, and then after a look, Pang Zhong and the three of them also got off the horse in turn and came to the Dingguo Mansion.

A few people glanced at each other, and then the guest entered the gate of the Dingguo Mansion, and saw that there was a stone pillar standing in the main courtyard, and there were four big characters written on it generously, "Dingguo Stone Pillar" was written on it carefully, it was actually written with the imperial pen himself, seeing this scene, Pang Zhong couldn't help but sigh that the emperor of Liang was really generous, and the Huang family was really a famous family.

"Young Master Meng, this old man is waiting for you in the main hall, go quickly." When the big housekeeper of the Huang Mansion heard the news of Huang Meng's return, he trotted all the way over to inform Huang Meng.

"Okay, I'll go right away, these are my friends, and they have something important to come to my uncle to discuss, and I'll bring them together." Huang Meng couldn't help but smile at the housekeeper, and explained the origin of Pang Zhong's group.

After listening to this, the housekeeper felt normal, and he was really a little puzzled before, this Huang Meng didn't go home for two years, and he brought a few strangers back, and he would personally feel strange.

Huang Meng in front, Pang Zhong they are behind, this line of people is one after the other into the second gate, along the way people look at this posture, good guys, this young master Meng is back for the first time, are looking at Huang Meng with a smile, although it is strange who is following behind this, but in this capital Huangfu is a famous family, this guest is also seen a lot, so the people do not think it is very strange.

According to the practice of this aristocratic family, unless there is a holy decree or an extremely important person comes, it is generally not open the middle door and does not enter the main hall, so Huang Meng led everyone directly through the corridor to the main hall. Although there is still a little sunset outside, the sky is gradually dark; In this room, however, there was a high fever of candles, and all corners of the hall and tables were lit with fine candles, which lit the whole room as bright as daytime, and under the warm candlelight, there was a man sitting in the main hall of the main hall, who was holding a scroll, wearing a splendid silk robe, wearing a jeweled silk hat, and a lot of beard under his chin. As he read the contents of the scroll carefully, he couldn't help but nod slightly, and the beard under his chin was windless.

As soon as Huang Meng saw it, he knew that this was his uncle, and immediately surrendered his hand to Andao: "Little nephew to see uncle, how is uncle doing lately?" ”

This uncle is today's Liang Guotang Dingguo Gong, Huang Desheng, this Huang Desheng is this Huang Meng's uncle, although he is close to old age, but he still looks like he has not arrived, and he is very energetic.

As soon as Huang Desheng heard this Huang Meng calling him, he stopped, raised his head, and saw this Huang Meng standing in the lower hall, and then raised his hand and said, "Get up." Then his eyes fell on this Huang Meng, and his tone became stern: "Do you still know to come back?" In the past two years, you are afraid that you have had a good time in Yongqing County, the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, Jiujiu Zhuyu and this New Year have not gone home to take a look, it seems that your father was too indulgent to discipline you before. ”

Just after teaching this sentence, Huang Desheng suddenly found that there were still a few people standing behind Huang Meng, and then he wondered: "Oh, there are guests?" ”

"Yes, these are important guests." Huang Meng wiped the beads of sweat from his head, and then said with a wry smile.

"Then I don't know what you guests are talking about?" This Huang Desheng paused for a while, and then asked slowly in his throat.

Pang Zhong didn't wait for Huang Meng to answer, and then glanced at this Jin Ren, Jin Ren comprehended and stepped forward and arched his hand and said: "Xia Guan is Jin Ren, the commander of Yongqing County, and he has seen Guogong. ”

"Oh? I don't know what happened to Jin County's order to find the old man? Huang Desheng's eyes narrowed, and then he slowly played with the scroll beside him with his hand and asked.

When Jin Ren saw this, he knew that it should be a direct showdown at this time, so he said, "Guogong, do you know who these people around me are?" After finishing speaking, a pair of eyes were staring at this Dingguo Gong tightly, and there was no slackness.

Huang Desheng's eyes were shining, and his eyes stared straight at the three people in the pang, as if he wanted to see their identities, and finally asked without seeing them: "......Who are these people?"

The corners of Pang Zhong's mouth rose slightly, and after smiling, he said to this Huang Desheng: "I am Fu Chang, from the Jin Kingdom. ”

When Huang Desheng heard this, he stood up directly, staring at Pang Zhong in astonishment, as if he was wondering if he had heard it wrong just now. Then he sat down slowly, glanced at this Huang Meng, and saw that this Huang Meng actually lowered his head in embarrassment, closed his eyes without saying a word, and sighed leisurely after half a day: "Fu Chang Cha Jin, Qiangong Dou Xing, Gen Liang Ghost, Ping Song Wanxing...... This is the famous four monarchs of the Jin Kingdom, but now, Fu Changjun is standing in front of the old man alive, which makes the old man very surprised. ”

Pang Zhong heard that Huang Desheng seemed to have other intentions in his words, so he guessed that this Huang Desheng was afraid that he had already understood their intentions, so he still smiled and said to this Huang Desheng: "Then Dingguogong, what is the matter that I came to find you, Guogong must know it." ”

After Huang Desheng heard this, he actually laughed, this laughter did not look like the laughter of a seventy-year-old man at all, but it was very imposing, and suddenly scared this Huang Meng.

After Huang Desheng finished laughing, he stared at this Pang Zhong and said: "I expected that this Jin country might find the old man, but I didn't expect that it was you Fu Changjun who came to find the old man in person, and the face that this Jin country gave to the old man was also quite big." Of course, what I didn't expect was that among the officials of my Liang State, there would be your people. As he said this, a pair of eyes suddenly turned to this Jin Ren, and his eyes looked at him in a daze.

This Jin Ren was very calm, just smiling and standing aside, waiting for this Pang Zhong's next words.
