Hu Chuan'er's father is called Hu Li, because of the homonym, Runzhou people call him a fox, mentioning the tooth man fox at the Runzhou wharf, not only Runzhou people are very familiar, even the merchants who come and go are also known to everyone, no one knows.

Hu Li was as thin as his son, with a little gray hair, and extremely cunning eyes, he sat at the table and squinted and drank a glass of wine, and asked the son opposite, "Zhang Shun said that he followed Taiwei Li?" ”

"That's what he said, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to come to Runzhou so upright!"

Speaking of this, Hu Chuan'er asked again: "Daddy, who is Mrs. Li?" ”

Hu Li glared at his son, "Taiwei Li is Li Yanqing, you are still a tooth man!" ”

Li Yanqing defended the city three times and defeated the Jin soldiers, and he has long been famous all over the world, but the people call him Li Dutong, speaking of Li Taiwei, outside the capital, there are really few people who know.

Hu Kuan'er scratched her head a little embarrassed, "But Li Yanqing is looking for ..... No! No! What is Zhang Shun looking for Red to do? ”

Hu Li groaned and said, "I'm afraid this matter is a bit big. ”

"What then! I have already received ten taels of silver from Zhang Shun, and I have promised to reply to him before dark. Hu Chuan'er was very afraid of Zhang Shun, don't look at his brother Shun's shouting, but he knew that Zhang Shunke was once a famous Jiang bandit on the Yangtze River, killing people like hemp, he really annoyed him, and his life could not be saved.

Huli drank the wine from his glass, and the wine glass table was heavy, "I'll go find him now!" ”

.........

As soon as it was dark, the Hu family father and son met Zhang Shun in the Beishun Tavern, Zhang Shun knew that Hu Li liked to drink a few glasses, so he bought a pot of wine and asked for a few cold dishes to accompany the wine.

"Brother Shun may not know that Red has been absorbed by the Jiangning government."

Zhang Shun was taken aback, he really didn't know about this matter, he hurriedly asked, "When did it happen?" ”

"At the beginning of the year, this matter was relatively hidden, and Red's money collection post disappeared, and the businessmen were very happy, thinking that Red was surrounded and suppressed by the government, but in fact, Red surrendered to the government."

"And where is he now?"

"It should be in Taihu Lake, last month I met one of his subordinates, went back to Runzhou to visit relatives, we had a few drinks together, his subordinates said that they are now training sailors in Taihu Lake, there are more than 2,000 people, more than 200 boats, and now Red has been promoted to the commander of the Xiang Army."

Zhang Shun nodded, as long as the safety of the Yangtze River is guaranteed, and after crossing the Yangtze River, it will be no problem to take the land route.

He thought for a while and said, "If Red enters the Yangtze River, you should know!" ”

"As long as he takes the canal, I must be clear, I'm afraid that he will go to Lishui, then I can't help it."

Of course, Zhang Shun knew that there were two passages between Taihu Lake and the Yangtze River, one was to take the canal from Runzhou to the Yangtze River, and the other was to take Lishui from Wuhu to the Yangtze River.

Zhang Shun immediately made a decision, he wanted to see Li Dutong immediately.

..........

After seven days of sailing, the fleet arrived in Yangzhou Jiangdu County, although Li Yanqing had followed King Yun to Suzhou many years ago, but at that time they did not take the Yangzhou line, Li Yanqing was the first time to come to Yangzhou, walked for seven days, his men were already sleepy, Li Yanqing immediately ordered to rest for three days, and then continue to set off after three days.

Early in the morning, Li Yanqing took Zhao Jinfu and Hu Qing'er to the Shugang Lake outside the north city to play, Cao Sheng and his wife have their own two-person world, Mo Jun was greedy and accidentally blew the river breeze last night, a little sick, and rested in the post house, although Hu Qing'er didn't want to go out with them, but was still pulled by Zhao Fujin to travel together.

Shugang is a hill outside the Jiangdu City, stretching for dozens of miles, the trees are towering, the valley is deep, you can see all kinds of strange stones and mountain springs everywhere in the meantime, it is a famous scenic spot outside the Jiangdu City.

There is a chain-like water pool under Shugang, the east is connected with the canal, the west is close to Shugang, there are many pavilions and pavilions built by the lake, there are also many celebrities and monuments, the scenery is very beautiful, here is the later Slender West Lake, but the Slender West Lake has not been fully formed in the Song Dynasty, and it can not even be called a lake, it is only a part of the canal, until after the Qing Dynasty, it has become a famous scenic spot.

"This road is called the Long Causeway Spring Willow, which was built by the Sui Dynasty when the Grand Canal was built, and the old willows on both sides of the river are said to have been planted by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, so it is called Willow!"

The three of them had just come down from Shugang, they were all a little tired, and they were walking slowly along the green causeway, but Li Yanqing was full of interest and introduced the source of the weeping willow trees on both sides of the causeway to the two girls.

Hu Qing'er couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle when she saw Zhao Jinfu, so she asked, "What is Sister Zhao laughing at?" ”

Zhao Fujin pursed his lips and said: "I thought maybe I read a few shoddy history books in the palace, and actually wrote history scribbling through." ”

Li Yanqing was a little strange, "How do you say this?" ”

Zhao Fujin pointed to the willow trees and said with a smile: "Look at these willow trees are obviously only thirty or fifty years old, but those books say that Emperor Yang of Sui was a person more than five hundred years ago, isn't it written blindly?" ”

Hu Qing'er suddenly understood, and couldn't help laughing, Li Yanqing touched his nose, and said with a smile: "It is said to be folklore, folklore!" You also know that it is made up randomly, and it cannot be taken seriously. ”

"Big brother, there's a tea shed over there!" Hu Qing'er suddenly found a tea shed in front of her and shouted happily.

Li Yanqing hesitated slightly, he remembered that Zhizhou was going to come to see him in the afternoon, and it was already noon.

"Brother Li, why don't we go back!"

After a big tour from the mountain, Zhao Fujin accidentally broke her foot, which was really a little painful, although she also wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but she also knew that Li Yanqing had something to do in the afternoon, so she suggested going back.

Li Yanqing glanced at her feet, and said with a smile: "Let's rest for a while and go back!" ”

He then ordered the two soldiers behind him: "You go and inform the carriage to come this way!" ”

They passed through the mountains, and the carriage was on the other side of Shugang, and it was at least ten miles in a circle.

The two soldiers nodded, turned and ran back the way they came.

Hu Qing'er also found that Zhao Fujin was a little difficult to walk, so she hurriedly helped her and walked towards the tea shed.

The tea shed is opened by an old couple, it can be seen that it is very simple, two thin bamboo poles support a bamboo shed that has been unknown for many years, the wind and rain have long been dilapidated, there are three old and bulky tables and chairs below, but the dishes and chopsticks on the table look relatively clean.

There was no business in the tea shed, so as soon as they entered, the old man greeted them, "The official and the two girls come to have a bowl of tea and rest!" ”

Li Yanqing nodded, "What else is there besides tea?" ”

"There are also some refreshments, if the official is hungry, my Hun family has steamed a few steamed buns, and there is no other food for the time being."

Hu Qing'er pouted and whispered, "Big brother, I came out in a hurry, I didn't eat breakfast." ”

"Good! A good pot of tea, two plates of refreshments, and two steamed buns. ”

The old man was overjoyed, and hurriedly wiped the wooden stool, "Three of you, please sit down, refreshments and food will come soon!" ”

The three of them sat down, Zhao Fujin took off the gauze hat on his head and put it on the table, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her feet, and couldn't help biting her lip, Li Yanqing asked with concern: "Does it hurt badly?" ”

Zhao Fujin saw that his lover cared about him, and his heart was sweet, and he whispered: "It's not a big problem, it's just a little worn out, just rest for two or three days." ”

"I've got some good medicine with me, and I'll get it for you when I get back."

"Thank you, Brother Li!"

Hu Qing'er pursed her lips and said to Li Yanqing with some dissatisfaction: "Big brother, my foot is also twisted, why don't you care?" ”

"Your foot is twisted too? Reach over and I'll pinch it for you! ”

Hu Qing'er stretched out her leg and kicked Li Yanqing, and snorted: "If you want to take advantage of me, no way!" ”

At this time, the shopkeeper brought the teapot and refreshments, and said with a smile: "The tea is my own Shugang tea, this year's new tea, the water is also good, it is the mountain spring water of the west peak of Shugang, it was only taken this morning, and the refreshments are also the square cakes of Wuwei Zhai in the city, which only came in yesterday, and it is relatively fresh, three of us to taste it." ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper, we'll do it ourselves."

Li Yanqing took the teapot, washed the tea bowl first, and poured a full cup for each of the three of them.

At this time, there were many tourists in the distance walking towards this side, Hu Qing'er saw that the shopkeeper went to greet the guests again, and hurriedly asked the old woman who was making tea, "Auntie, are the buns ready?" ”

"It'll be fine soon, girl, wait a little longer."

Li Yanqing picked up the tea bowl and sniffed it carefully, and tasted the water a little, the tea tasted fragrant, the tea was clear and sweet, and he couldn't help nodding, he never went to the tea shed to drink tea in the capital, those are all big bowls of tea for the bottom coolies, one or two pennies a bowl, today this tea shed is good, and the tea is good.

"Brother Li, the tea is not bad!" Zhao Fujin asked with a smile.

"The water is very good, better than the water of Yuquan Mountain in our capital."

"Yo! This beauty is still from the capital. Suddenly, there was a flowing voice behind him.
