After a day's rest, the 100,000 Song army continued to camp north, and many soldiers remembered Tangyin County for the first time, and a Tangyin boy left an extremely deep memory on them with wonderful archery. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As the army marched north, the farcical Shizi Army was also disbanded, and although many of the Shizi did not even have the opportunity to show up, Tong Guan still rewarded each of them with a sword as a reward for participating in the Shizi Army.

"I've inquired about weapons today!"

At dinner, Wang Gui excitedly said to everyone: "The sword that Captain Tong gave us is the ceremonial sword of the forbidden army, which can only be bought in the Lianggong sword shop in the capital, and a sword is worth at least fifteen yuan, which is really a big deal!" A hundred swords is fifteen hundred dollars. ”

As he spoke, he slowly pulled out his sword, the sword body made of stainless steel glittered in the light, extremely sharp, well-made, it was a good sword, Wang Gui couldn't put it down when he got this sword, and he even had to put it by his side when he ate and slept.

But except for Wang Gui, other people's interest in this sword has faded, after all, ten days have passed, everyone has put the sword at the bottom of the box, only Wang Gui is still interested, and it can be seen that he really likes this sword.

"You like it so much, I'll sell you that sword of mine, do you want ten dollars?" Tang Huai yawned and said jokingly.

"That word is a certainty, lie to me as the eighth king!" Wang Gui immediately seized the opportunity and did not give Tang Huai any room for regret.

Of course, Tang Huai was just joking, where was he willing to sell the sword to Wang Gui, he rolled his eyes and smiled: "I didn't say which sword!" ”

"Tang Wang Ba!" Wang Gui gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice.

Tang Huai slapped the table heavily, glared at Wang Gui and said, "Do you have a kind of scolding again?" ”

Wang Gui didn't dare to say anything, and at this time, Li Yanqing scooped a bowl of osmanthus red bean soup with a spoon and asked with a smile: "Don't keep mentioning the sword, talk about your martial arts, when do you plan to go to Anyang?" ”

Yue Fei said with a smile on the side: "I asked the master today, the martial arts test is scheduled to be held on January 20, we will go home for the New Year, and we will set off directly to Anyang on the fifth day of the first month of January, if you don't come to Tangyin, do you want Lao Li to go with us?" ”

"Of course I want to go, but it's up to the master to arrange!"

"The master is partial to you!"

Wang Gui sighed and said with envy: "He actually gave you a copper bow and iron arrows, I am simply envious to death." ”

Li Yanqing stretched out his hand and struck him on the head, pretending to be annoyed and said, "It's shameful to say this, didn't the master give you something?" Your golden-backed tiger tooth broadsword fell from the sky? There are also Lao Yue's Hundred Refining Panlong Golden Spear, Lao Tang's Lotus Hook and Sickle Gun, all of which have been treasured by the master for many years. ”

Tang Huai and Yue Fei both shouted, it was Wang Gui himself who said nonsense, and it had nothing to do with them.

Wang Gui covered his head and shouted unconvinced: "It's obviously eccentric!" Can my broadsword compare to your bronze bow? ”

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'll go out for a walk to eliminate food, who will go with me?" Li Yanqing stood up and said.

Yue Fei shook his head and said, "I want to read, so I don't have time to accompany you." ”

Li Yanqing's eyes fell on Tang Huai again, Tang Huai shook his fan and said, "My uncle will come later, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to leave." ”

Li Yanqing finally had to take a look at Wang Gui, and when he saw that Wang Gui was eager to try, he obviously wanted to go out with him, so he kicked him angrily, "If you want to go, let's go!" ”

Wang Gui suddenly smiled, put the sword on his waist, and followed Li Yanqing out.

.........

Walking out of the gate, the two walked slowly along the street, at this time, Wang Gui stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Lao Li, are the rumors true?" ”

"What rumors?"

"It's the matter that Mrs. Tong wants to accept you as a righteous son! The whole county school spread. ”

Mentioning this matter, Li Yanqing's heart was like a lit match thrown into the oil pot, he was feigned anger just now, he was really a little angry at this moment, the anger in his chest quickly burned, he turned around and glared at Wang Gui fiercely, "Do you believe this kind of boring rumor?" ”

Wang Gui scratched his head, "It's not a question of whether I believe it or not, the county school is talking about it, I'm afraid it won't be long before the entire Tangyin County will spread, if it's not true, you should avoid the rumors!" ”

"It's useless to avoid rumors!"

Li Yanqing sighed, "Everyone treats this kind of thing as a joke, and it would rather believe that it is true, the more you avoid the rumors, the more fierce it will spread, only after a long time, it will slowly subside by itself." ”

Having said that, the rumors did bring a lot of trouble to Li Yanqing, everyone in the world knows that Tong Guan is a eunuch, and he is the righteous son of a eunuch, and he will enter the palace in the future.

So when this matter was mentioned, there was always a nameless fire burning in Li Yanqing's heart.

Wang Gui swallowed and said: "I know that this rumor was made up by Huang An and them, they didn't have a chance to play that day, but you shined, they were jealous, but we all saw with our own eyes what you promised, and asked you and refused to say, can you still believe it after so many years of brothers?" ”

Speaking of this, Wang Gui glanced at Li Yanqing, there was a little complaint in his eyes, Li Yanqing smiled bitterly, "It's not that I don't believe you, I'm afraid this matter is just a joke from the powerful, before it becomes a reality, I think it's better to be silent." ”

"I don't really want to accept you as a righteous son!" Wang Gui's eyes widened.

"Of course not, you really want to know that I can tell you, but you must not pass it on to me, the master can't say it, and Lao Tang Laoyue can't say it, so keep it in my heart."

"I promise not to go out and talk nonsense!" Wang Gui patted his chest and said.

Li Yanqing glanced at him suspiciously, he knew this guy too well, and the more he swore by him, the more unreliable he became.

Wang Gui's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "Although I have a fast mouth, if you tell me, I won't talk nonsense, I know the severity." ”

"Alright! I'll tell you, it's not that he was accepted as a righteous son, but that Taiwei Tong plans to recommend me to go to Taixue and Shangshe, and I am his protégé. ”

"Ahh Wang Gui exclaimed, his eyes full of envy.

Although it is difficult to enter the Taixue Shangshe, it is not unattainable, there are three Taixue students in Xiangzhou, the key is that Tong Taiwei recommends, even if he does not participate in the provincial examination in the future, he will get a very generous official position from Taixue.

Now the Great Song Dynasty is still peaceful and prosperous, it is still ten years away from the destruction of the country, almost all people have no sense of crisis, the six thieves do not exist, Tong Guan fought a few victories in Western Xia, and defeated Tubo, and has a high prestige among the people.

Even although Cai Jing, the prime minister, manipulated power in the imperial court, cronyism, and was hated by the court officials, he vigorously promoted the social relief system, which was unprecedented in scale, so that the people could support the old and have little to rely on, and vigorously established the state school and Taixue, giving the scholars a way out, so that Cai Jing also had a high reputation among the people and scholars.

Until four years after Xuanhe, the Liao State was destroyed, the Jin soldiers began to invade the south, the Song army was defeated repeatedly, the imperial court did not want to resist, but cut the land to seek peace, lost power and humiliated the country, which made the people of the world boil, and the whole country began to investigate and condemn.

Song Qinzong in order to crack down on the elite interest groups, also took advantage of public opinion, father and son tacitly, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng and other six people were designated as national thieves, until then, Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others were notorious, and everyone in the world shouted and beaten.

But at least at this time, Tong Guan was still high, not the general public could look at his back, for a country boy like Wang Gui, when he heard that Tong Taiwei actually recommended Li Yanqing to study in Shangshe, of course he was shocked and envious.

Unconsciously, Li Yanqing's image in Wang Gui's heart has also become taller.

The two walked around and came back, Li Yanqing's inner irritability gradually calmed down, everything has two sides, although the barracks archery brought him opportunities, but also brought him jealousy and slander, this negative impact can not be eliminated in a day or two, it can only be slowly faded by time.

Li Yanqing just walked to the gate, only to see the magpie running out, a little nervous and said, "Uncle Li Zhen is here, saying that there is something very important to talk to you!" ”

Li Zhen is the father of Li Er and Li San, who was the Baozheng of Li Wencun and the Dubaozheng of Xiaohe Township for a few years, but he resigned last year.

Now that the New Year is less than ten days away, Li Zhen came to find him at this time, and it must have something to do with the clan sacrifice in Li Wen Village.

Li Yanqing was disgusted with Li Zhen for a while, because Li Wengui had Li Zhen's full support when he was the patriarch, but he heard his father say that two months ago the two turned against each other because of Li Wengui's illegal sale of clan grain.

Because Li Zhen vigorously called on his clansmen to boycott Li Wengui, his youngest son Li San was seriously injured on the way home from school, and Li Zhen was extremely hostile to Li Wengui.

No matter what the reason for the two to turn against each other, as long as they are hostile to Li Wengui, then they will stand aside with him Li Yanqing.

Li Yanqing walked into his courtyard quickly, and saw Li Zhen sitting in the study drinking tea, looking very anxious, as if something had happened?

"Third uncle, what's wrong?" Li Yanqing walked to the door and asked.

Li Zhen immediately stood up, stepped forward and grabbed Li Yanqing and said anxiously: "Yanqing, you are finally back, something happened to Li Wencun!" ”
