Chapter 225: Childe Liu Qiang
"Who are you?"
The young man's voice was very loud, and this angry shout surprised Zhao Yougong and the others, and when they turned their heads, Zhao Yougong glanced at them, but they didn't know them. However, this young man has a resolute face, his forehead is slightly raised, and his eyes are like electricity, and he looks like a leopard that has just come out of the mountain. Zhao Yougong didn't know him, but Han Shizhong and Gao Chong knew this young man, they exhaled, frowned and smiled bitterly, "Uncle Xin, what are you yelling at?" ”
"Huh?" Seeing the faces of the three of them, the young man was greatly surprised, took two steps closely, and said with some disbelief, "Brother Han? Big Brother Gao? ”
"You kid, why do you tone like that? Don't you even know the two of us? Gao Pet raised his hand and patted the young man gently, the young man looked excited, and after confirming it repeatedly, he shook his head and smiled, "I really didn't expect that it was really you." ”
This young man is none other than Liu Zhongwu's ninth son, Liu Kuang, although this Liu Jian is a young son, he is like Liu Zhongwu, since he was ten years old, he has been by Liu Zhongwu's side, has been in the Dingguo Army for a long time, and is also quite familiar with some young generals of the Dingguo Army. Now that he has to see acquaintances, Liu Jian is naturally very happy, but as soon as the excitement passed, he noticed Zhao Yougong beside Han Shizhong.
"Uncle Xin, how have you been all these years? I heard that you have married two daughters-in-law? ”
"Hehe, what else? Hastily lived, as for marrying a daughter-in-law, it was not what the younger brother wanted, but the family affairs arranged by the father before his death were also helpless! ”
Liu Jian spoke, his expression was a little depressed, since Liu Zhongwu's death, the situation of the old Liu family has been getting worse day by day. The people who used to be good friends with the Liu family have also become rusty. on this. The Liu family is very open-minded. If the family is in the middle of the road, and others are not in the ground, it is good. Over the years, the elder brothers in the family have also run some businesses and do some business, but Liu Jian is still idle, even after getting married, he is still like this.
Liu Jian is by no means a fool. It's not that he can't do business, it's just that he doesn't want to. Daddy fought all his life, and finally ended up with a crime of escaping, how can his heart be peaceful? Liu Jian wants to find justice for his father, if he is also a businessman like his brother, then wouldn't his father's grievances be impossible to see?
Looking at Liu Kuan's expression, Han Shizhong could also understand a little, patted Liu Kuang's shoulder, and he laughed softly, "Uncle Xin." Don't think too much, when General Liu left. I hope you can live well. ”
"Haha, don't talk about this, Brother Han, you haven't said it yet, who is this brother?" Liu Jian had been paying attention to Zhao Yougong for a long time, and he found that this young man looked calm, seemingly casual, but he had a kind of nobility.
Hearing this, Han Shizhong and Gao Zhong showed a trace of hesitation, after many years, who knows what Liu Jian thinks? Let him know that the person in front of him is the King of Jinling, who knows what he will do? If it was Liu Zhongwu standing in front of him, Han Shizhong would not have the slightest concealment, but it was Liu Jian in front of him, so he hesitated.
Seeing Han Shizhong and Gao Chong's tone, Liu Qian's face also became a little ugly, "The two brothers don't have to be embarrassed, if you don't want to say it, don't say it!" Closing his smile, he staggered by, placed the incense and candle offerings in front of the tombstone, and lit a stack of yellow paper.
After signaling Han Shizhong and the others not to say more, Zhao Yougong stepped behind Liu Kuan, looked at Liu Zhongwu's tombstone, and said softly, "If you want to know, it doesn't matter, a certain family surnamed Zhao, now the king of Jinling, came to Chengji County today, just to worship General Liu." ”
King Jinling? surnamed Zhao, isn't it Zhao Yougong, the only son of His Royal Highness? Liu Jian also understands Han Shizhong and Gao Zhong a little, His Royal Highness's identity is too sensitive, if people know that he has come to Chengji County, I don't know how big a mess it will be.
Liu Jian didn't have a good impression of the Zhao family, his father was loyal to the royal family, but in the end he ended up with this result. Maybe Daddy respects His Royal Highness, but he can't, now that His Royal Highness is down, what can he do? Did you come to Chengji County to buy people's hearts? If you really have the heart, what did you do earlier?
"It's strange that His Royal Highness can come, what's the matter, His Highness is just to worship my poor father?" The words were mostly sarcastic, with his head bowed, and a sneer crossed the corner of his mouth.
Han Shizhong frowned, stepped forward, and scolded sharply, "Uncle Xin, how can you talk to Your Highness, why don't you apologize to Your Highness!" ”
"Hmph, Brother Han, Your Highness is your Highness, what does it have to do with your younger brother?"
Gao Chong's personality was a little anxious, and seeing that Liu Jian was still in this contemptuous tone, he immediately stepped forward and wanted to pick up Liu Kuang, so it was better to theorize. Zhao Yougong stretched out his hand to stop Gao Chong, he didn't blame Liu Kuang, the Zhao family owed Liu Zhongwu too much, and Liu Kuang also had the right to blame.
Looking at Liu Qian's slightly clumsy back, Zhao Yougong sighed and said slowly, "Uncle Liu Xin, you have anger in your heart, you should be, this king will not blame you." There is not much that this king can do, I can only sue you, if this king does not die, he will definitely return General Liu to a fair place! ”
Leaving a word, Zhao Yougong had already turned around and walked down the slope, Han Shizhong and Gao Zhong stared at Liu Jian for a while, before they sighed and said quietly, "Uncle Xin, it is understandable that you are angry in your heart, but His Royal Highness does not owe you anything, he came to Chengji County today just to worship the old general." Oh, you can do it yourself! ”
Han Shizhong and Gao Zhong left Xingye Slope together, and Liu Jian knelt motionless in front of the tombstone, but his mind had already flown elsewhere. He could hear that Zhao Yougong's words just now were completely heartfelt.
If he doesn't die, he will give the old general justice. Liu Jian was still recalling this sentence, and in a trance, he didn't even know how to go home.
On the official road, accompanied by the loess in the sky, the three horsemen galloped past.
In Quping Village, Yinzhou, Tuoba Xuan, who was full of scum, walked around with his hands behind his back, and on a hot day, he was also wrapped in a cloth silk hat, plus a wide robe with blue and white patterns, which looked like it was not the same. Recently, Tuoba Xuan's life is very difficult, since two months ago, the new Yinzhou defense envoy Xiong Guangbi began to send people to attack and harass various cottages near Yinzhou, cattle and sheep robbed countless not to mention, but also dug out the nearby grain stockpile. The reason why the various departments of the Malkang Party have been able to deal with the Western Xia officials and troops for decades is because of the way to store food, but this time there was a traitor. After the place where the grain is stored is offered. Xiong Guangbi is like a hunting dog, leading people to grab food. Burn the burn.
There was no grain stockpile, and the people of the various departments of the Malkang Party were panicked, but fortunately, the baby daughter didn't know who she had made a deal with, and she actually exchanged the war horse for tens of thousands of stone grain, which solved the urgent need. There is no problem for the time being, but Tuoba Xuan is very worried that Xiong Guangbi will bite the various departments like a mad dog, and just a few days ago, the Qiang village of Shendui Station showed some signs of instability. If Xiong Guangbi really took the opportunity to pounce, the Qiang people of Shenduiyi were really likely to take refuge in Western Xia.
Shendui Station is located in front of Quping Village, the terrain is dangerous, if this place is lost, Quping Village will not be guaranteed. In any case, it is necessary to keep the Shendui Station, but if you want to keep the Shendui Station, you have to send food to the Qiang people, and that Qiang barbarian Huerle is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Now the grain stored in Quping Village is just enough for their own use, how can there be surplus grain for the Qiang people? Imagine the moon. After a long time, I didn't come up with a good idea, and I didn't have a rut. Tuoba thought of his precious daughter again.
When he came to the bamboo house, there was still light in the window, and Tuoba Xuan knocked on the door, pulling a long voice, very kind, "Good girl, have you slept?" ”
Tuoba Qingyun curled his legs, and looked at the door with a smile and a smile, "Sleep, what's the matter with Daddy, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”
"Ha, a good girl talking like this, she must have not slept, Daddy will come in hahaha" I have been in Yinzhou for more than ten years, but Tuoba Xuan still speaks with a thick western Sichuan accent.
Tuoba smiled lightly, knowing that his father would react in this way, but in fact, the door was not inserted, Tuoba Xuan pushed it lightly, and walked in with a smile. At this time, Tuoba Qingyun sat cross-legged on the bed, fiddling with a white brocade handkerchief in his hand, and his long black hair was not restrained at all, loosely on his shoulders. Seeing her father coming to the bedside, she tilted her head, her beautiful eyes squinted slightly, "Hehe, Daddy, you don't sleep at night, do you want to find your daughter to drink two cups?" ”
"What are you talking about, just thinking about it, let's see if the good girl is okay!"
"Daddy will talk nonsense, don't you know if the child is okay with the dinner at night? Let's talk about it, what the hell is going on, otherwise, I'm going to have to ask my dad out, and I have to sleep! ”
Tuoba Xuan was not depressed, but he really had a headache when he met this smart and good girl, "Good girl, in fact, it's nothing, that is, you can see if you can think about it again and get more food, that turtle son in Huerle urges food every day, if we don't follow him, that turtle son will dare to be Xiong Sanfat's son." ”
Tuoba Qingyun had already guessed that Tuoba Xuan would come to her, pointing to the edge of the couch, and after Tuoba Xuan sat down, she knelt up, patted Tuoba Xuan's shoulder, and was very old-fashioned, "Tuoba Patriarch, you are always confused, that turtle son wants food, you give it to him!" ”
"Give? Good girl, don't joke with your father, we don't have much food, give it back to him, what do the young and old in the clan eat? ”
"Confused, it's not for you to give it all, you can give half of what the turtle son wants, as long as he solves his urgent need. Some time ago, didn't you just get some cattle and sheep from Xiong Sanpang's hands, and send them to him, so that we can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, if the turtle son still has the face to take refuge in Xiong Sanfat, the Qiang people will not agree. Besides, if Xiong Sanpang knew that the lost cattle and sheep fell into the hands of Huerle, he would definitely hate him to death! ”
"Hey, it's miles, it's miles, why didn't Lao Tzu think of it, okay, tomorrow's father will send all those cattle and sheep to the turtle son, and he has to beat the gong and drum to send them, the provincial bear Sanfat doesn't know!"
"That's right, Daddy, it's okay now, you can go!"
"Okay, good girl sleep, let's go" Tuoba Xuan got up and walked out, but just after taking two steps, he remembered something, he slapped his head and muttered with his mouth open, "Forget, forget, how can you forget this?" Good girl, you have been in Liangfu Village for so long, can you find out who killed your uncle? ”
"What to check? It's that Gong Boyu, this fact belongs to Uncle himself, and he can't even look down on Gong Boyu! ”
"Why are you talking, how can he also be your uncle, hum, Gong Boyu, the turtle son, wait for Lao Tzu to free his hand, kill him first!"
"Okay, okay, extinguish" Tuoba Qingyun pinched his waist with both hands, knelt up straight, learned Tuoba Xuan's tone, and said crookedly, "Hmph, Gong Boyu, this turtle son, wait for Lao Tzu to free his hand, kill him first!" ”
"Good girl, dare to learn from Lao Tzu?" Tuoba stared at each other, and his old face was a tiger.
Tuoba Qingyun was not afraid at all, raised his eyebrows, and giggled, "Which good girl, which Lao Tzu?" ”
Tuoba Xuan was amused by the old face jumping wildly, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the bed, at this time Tuoba Qingyun tilted his body, stretched out a foot and lit up, the white socks were a little big, it looked like a loose cloth bag, "Which Lao Tzu, come and smell, is it fragrant?" ”
"Ouch, auntie, it's this trick again, it stinks!"
Pinching his nose, Tuoba Xuan crooked his mouth and walked out, "Good girl, in two days, your Uncle Man will go back to Shilijing, you can also go with you!" ”
"No, there's something else going on!"
"Hey, good girl, what's the matter with you?"
"Hee-hee, look at the excitement!"
Watching the excitement? Tuoba is full of confusion, what kind of lively good daughter is so interested? (To be continued......)
