The two wooden doors of the main hall were wide open, and the cold wind passed through the hall leisurely, but Liu Hong didn't care, but blew the steaming water vapor above the cup, and then gently took a sip of hot water, enjoying this rare leisurely atmosphere with the cold air.

This is Liu Hong's mansion outside the city, Liu Hong has just come down from the carriage, he is naturally here for no reason, he is waiting for someone, so Liu Hong's eyes have been looking at the outside of the house.

Then, a figure appeared in Liu Hong's sight, the person who came was Jia Wei, more than eight feet five inches long, square face and tiger eyes, wide mouth and wide nose, beard like a sword halberd, came to Liu Hong and immediately bowed: "Gongyan greets my lord." ”

"Your Excellency." Liu Hong murmured a little bitterly in his heart, but he still refused to call me "family master".

This mighty and extraordinary Jia Wei's surname is Jia, his name is Wei, and his name is Gongyan, which was discovered by Liu Hong by accident when he was inspecting the tenant field last year.

Although Jia Wei was dressed in brown clothes and grass at that time, he was no different from ordinary tenant farmers, but his majestic appearance and temperament that was very different from ordinary people attracted Liu Hong's attention.

After that, after many temptations, Liu Hong found that this Jia Wei was not only skilled in arching and horses, extraordinary in martial arts, but also read some military books; However, no matter how Liu Hong induced, Jia Wei was silent about his specific origins.

However, according to the available information, it is not difficult for Liu Hong to deduce some conclusions: this Jia Wei is the second batch of border group refugees, but his behavior and speech are very rigorous, quite methodical, he must be from the army, and it is not an ordinary army - because a strong army can produce a strong army, and the kind of awe-inspiring temperament on Jia Wei is definitely not something that can be cultivated by those armies who are powerless in the face of Hu Lukou today.

And in the past ten years, the only army that can be called a good war in the two states is nothing more than the team that was personally trained by the Liao general Zhang Huan in the Xiangyong Institute of Manbo's recruitment.

Moreover, the most important thing is that as far as Liu Hong knows, since Zhang Huan, the Liao general in the ninth year of Yanxi, moved back to the central government because of his meritorious service and outstanding political achievements, the strong army he trained to deal with Wuhuan and Xianbei has become "yesterday's yellow flower" due to various changes.

Therefore, Jia Wei's true identity is simply about to come out, although Liu Hong doesn't know why Jia Wei is so downtrodden that he is a tenant, but Liu Hong knows two things:

One, everyone has their own past and their own secrets, at least Jia Wei is not a villain.

Second, Jia Wei has talents, which is exactly the talent he is looking for.

Therefore, Liu Hong then launched the mode of "Corporal Lixian" to Jia Wei, but what made Liu Hong helpless was that he didn't know what kind of considerations Jia Wei had, anyway, he once again fell into the kind of dead end that he encountered when asking Jia Wei about his origins.

Liu Hong didn't dare to be in a hurry, for fear that he would be in a hurry, Jia Wei took advantage of his inattention to roll up and leave, and there was no room for maneuver at that time.

This time, if possible, Liu Hong would never want to let this Jia Wei go to Yuzhou, but there was really no one under his command to use.

After thinking about this, it was actually only a thought, and then Liu Hong threw these messy thoughts out of his mind, and let Jia Wei get up with his right hand, and then brought the matter of Yuzhou one by one.

After speaking, Liu Hongchang bowed and said, "Gongyan, this matter is entrusted to you." ”

"My lord, how does this work? Hurry up, don't bother the villain! Seeing that Liu Hong suddenly gave such a big salute, Jia Wei hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Liu Hong's arms, and forcibly stopped Liu Hong's tendency to bow down.

Although Liu Hong wanted to worship again, but Jia Wei was really amazing, after a few battles, Liu Hong had to straighten up, and said with a wry smile: "Hong uses such tedious things to pay for you, but there is no retribution, just a courtesy, you don't accept it, Hong is ashamed!" ”

"Why do you say that?!" Jia Wei raised his voice suddenly, and then said with a serious face: "When Jia someone was displaced from danger and poverty, it was the adults who rescued him and gave me food, clothing, and fields, so that Yu Neng could be filial to the old and raise his young. Besides, this trip to Qiao County is actually the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people in Zhuo County, although Gongyan is a vulgar person, he also has a righteous heart! ”

After hearing this, Liu Hong shouted loudly: "Okay! Gonghiko is really a righteous person! As he spoke, Liu Hong took out two more things from his arms, namely a silk book and a small piece of gold cake, and then handed them to Jia Wei.

Jia Wei's eyes widened, but he hesitated not to pick up the things in Liu Hong's hands.

Liu Hong raised the silk book slightly, and said with a smile: "This is a customs clearance document written by me personally, and there is also the official seal of the county government on it. ”

"Then this-" Jia Wei pointed to the small golden cake on Liu Hong's other hand, and stopped talking.

"Haha." Liu Hong laughed a few more times, and "toughly" stuffed the small golden cake into Jia Wei's palm, "Gongyan has a long way to go, how can there be no cost on the road?" ”

"But that's—"

"Kimihiko!" Liu Hong glared at him and stopped Jia Wei's unfinished words: "It's just money, why bother?" ”

"Head of the house!" Jia Wei fell to his knees with a plop, and clenched his fists with both hands, his head tilted to the right, looking like a soldier who died for his confidant.

"Gonghiko, what do you call me?" Hearing Jia Wei's voice, Liu Hongdeng asked excitedly. After speaking, he suddenly remembered that Jia Wei was kneeling, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "Gongyan, please get up quickly, please get up quickly!" ”

When Jia Wei was helped up, Liu Hong didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, and this kind of unexpected joy always made people feel extraordinarily happy.

After being excited for a long time, Liu Hong regained a certain calm, and said to Jia Weiyin: "Gongyan is here, no matter whether this Hua Tuo is found or not, Gongyan still needs to come back as soon as possible, Hong can't be without a king here for a day." ”

"Yes, Master." Jia Wei nodded heavily, and the tiger's eyes were already a little wet.

Liu Hong saw that Jia Wei should respond, so he went out of the door with Jia Wei, and outside the house, there was a good horse prepared.

Next to the horse, there is an old man standing at this moment, who is the original deputy chief of Jiazili, Jiao Da, but since Liu Hongtianmu expanded, this Jiao Da has also risen and become the new Jiachou Li chief.

Seeing Liu Hong come out, Jiao Da immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, the horses and dry food have been prepared." ”

Liu Hong bowed his head slightly and motioned for Jiao Da to leave, then took the reins of the horse and turned to Na Jia Wei and said, "Please Gongyan get on the horse." ”

"It's-"

"Gonghiko, don't say more, get on the horse!"

Hearing Liu Hong's slightly stern tone, Jia Wei had no choice but to step forward and hold the horse's back with both hands and jump up.

Seeing Jia Wei on the horse, Liu Hongfang laughed, let go of the horse's reins, took a few steps back, hugged his fists and said: "Gongyan is going, the road ahead is boundless, when you return, Hongding is here to wash the dust and catch the wind." ”

"Big~people!" Jia Wei was choked up when he spoke at this time, and even looked like he was about to cry, but in the end he still left tears in his eyes, saluted Liu Hong with a fist, and then raised his horsewhip and rode away.

After bidding farewell to Jia Wei, Liu Hong rushed back to the county seat of Zhuoxian County in a carriage without stopping, inspected the city gate, and saw that the city was strictly forbidden and the guards were orderly, so he nodded and left with satisfaction.

The carriage continued to drive towards the county government through the city gate, and Liu Hong's heart was slightly relaxed, not only because of the unexpected joy from Jia Wei's sudden surrender, but also because Liu Hong had done what he could.

One thing, if you do nothing and let it fail, then you will inevitably have psychological self-blame; If you try hard and still fail, although it is the same result, you will have more or less the confidence to defend yourself (deliberately typing, forbidden words), and you will not regret it so much.

However, this good mood did not last long, when he arrived at the county office, he just got off the carriage and saw Wang Wu, who was pacing back and forth at the gate of the county government with an anxious face, Liu Hong's heart sank again.

"Sister-in-law!" When Wang Wu saw Liu Hong, his anxious face flashed with some joy.

Liu Hong stopped Wang Wu's words, "Go into the house and say", after saying that, Liu Hong walked towards the county office, and Wang Wu hurriedly followed.

When he arrived at a room where the county government was deliberating, Liu Hong turned around and closed the door before he asked Wang Wu, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Sister-in-law, it's not good, I can't buy medicinal herbs!"

"Can't buy it?! I've seen that prescription, and the medicinal materials I need are all ordinary things, so why can't I buy them? ”

"Sister-in-law." Wang Wu smiled bitterly: "Those medicinal materials are almost all in the hands of the Zhao family, and they are not sold. ”

"The Zhao family?" Liu Hong's pupils shrank, and then he said: "Then you said that it was bought by the county government, by the way, and the king master's book haunted and came forward?" ”

"Anyway, Master Wang also came forward, but it was useless, Master Wang should still be in the Zhao Mansion to negotiate with the Zhao family." Wang Wu replied.

"Huh." Liu Hong sneered twice: "Needless to say, this Zhao Mansion is coming for me." ”

"Brother-in-law, do you mean ......" Wang Wu's face was shocked, and there was even a hint of disbelief, "But at this time, how dare the Zhao family do this?" Aren't you afraid of stirring up resentment?"

Liu Hong's expression became more and more cold: "Why don't you dare to do this, what can't these silverfish do, not to mention that they have their own means to push them all away." ”

"Then sister-in-law, why don't I lead some patrols to surround the Zhao Mansion and force him to comply?" Wang Wu proposed.

Liu Hong groaned for a while, but in the end he sighed helplessly: "No, Ziyong, you go down first, by the way, when the king comes back, ask him to come to see me." ”

Although Wang Wu didn't understand the change in Liu Hong's attitude, he had to be a subordinate after all, and even his brother-in-law had to have a certain eye, so Wang Wu bowed and retreated.

Half an hour later, Liu Hong looked directly at Wang Yi, who had just entered the door, and asked straightforwardly, "Ziyuan, what did the Zhao family say to you?" ”

"They want adults to come over."

Liu Hong was silent for a moment after hearing this, and Fang said to Wang Yi: "I know, Ziyuan, you go out first." ”

"Whoa." Wang Yi saluted and left.

And after Wang Yi left, Liu Hong couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, and smashed his fist on the wall, his eyes were fierce, like a devouring tiger: "Vertical Zi'an dares to bully me like this?!" ”
