In the fourth year of Xuanhe of the Great Song Dynasty, in Yanjing City of Liao, it was already March in Yangchun at this time, and it was just right green inside and outside, although it was a good season, but inside and outside Yanjing City was full of military horses crossing the border, and the people of the northern country who fled were endless.

On the side of the bridge in Chengnanzhou, in the Accord on the second floor of a hotel, Sanniang was dressed in a fox fur uniform, standing against the railing, looking at the northern people who fled into the city downstairs, and was silent for a long time. I saw that on the street, there were no less than thousands of people who dragged their children and daughters to flee, and they crowded the streets, all of them in rags and panicked.

At this moment, a group of cavalry of the Liao clan came over, all bright yellow armor color, covered with fur velvet, and saw that the fleeing people were blocking the way, so they ignored it and pulled out their horsewhips to drive away the crowd. Those who walked slowly were whipped down, and all the people who cried for their fathers and mothers hugged their heads and left, avoiding the alleys and back streets, and giving way to the main road.

After Sanniang on the upper floor looked at it, she sighed and said: "It's really better to be a peace dog, don't be a troubled world, this war starts, and it's only the people who suffer." Chen Liqing, who was sitting on the side, also frowned and said: "These Liao soldiers are so vicious to their own people, it's really hateful. ”

Sanniang turned around and smiled: "This group of Liao soldiers is not simple when they look at the color of their uniforms, they think they are the most elite palace cavalry in Liao, that is, the Praetorian Guard cavalry of the emperor of Liao. They came to the streets to chase people, presumably there were big people going out later. ”

Chen Liqing hadn't answered yet, only to hear a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and a rough voice smiled: "What this lady said is true, these are the elite forbidden army cavalry of the Liao Emperor, the royal tent army, there are always more than 5,000 people, and the selected ones are the most elite in the Liao army." As soon as the royal tent pro-army moved, there was no doubt that the person who came must be Emperor Liao. ”

As the people spoke, they saw that there was already one more person at the door of the Accord, this person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a resolute face, a fur hat on his head, and a fur robe common in the north on his body, with a cold and solemn face.

Seeing the visitor, Liqing smiled and said, "Even if you come, I'm afraid that you haven't seen my book." Seeing Liqing's smile, the man also showed a smile on his cold face and said, "Mrs. Chen left a book to make an appointment, how can I, Yang Tinghe, not come?" And if there are so many fine works on the north side of yours, how can I not receive your books? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Tinghe stopped at Sanniang with a pair of eyes, his eyes were full of admiration, and he couldn't help but praise: "This must be a famous heroine of the rivers and lakes. I can see each other, although I have no regrets about dying. ”

Sanniang also smiled and said: "I am worthy of being the heir of the Yang family in the northern country, with a vicious eye, and I can recognize me at a glance." But is it too much to say that I am just a woman, just to see me, and die without regrets? ”

Yang Tinghe shook his head and said, "Yizhang Qing is the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, and she is famous for her women, and the northern country is also famous. I want to be a daughter of a daughter, command the heroes, occupy Liangshan, dominate Shandong, and beat the Song court to make an exception to open the town of Zhao'an, not only set a precedent, but also to serve as a daughter as the envoy of the festival of the town, the famous generals of the Song State who were defeated in the hands do not know how many, who does not admire the great martial arts? It is even more rare to open a mountain and establish a sect, build the White Lotus Sect, preach the teachings, appease the people, and give doctors and medicines, who does not respect the good name? I have often said to a few brothers that if we can see a green face in this life, we will really have no regrets in death. ”

Seeing him praising Sanniang like this, Liqing couldn't help but glance blankly and said, "You are so flattering, she is afraid that she will be happy in her heart." Yang Tinghe snorted, not knowing how to answer, Li Qing snorted and said, "Sit down and talk, you two are standing, so I have to stand and talk." ”

At that moment, Sanniang smiled, and with a generous gesture of please, she invited Yang Tinghe to sit in the guest seat, sat down by herself, and accompanied by Prime Minister Liqing. After they all sat down, Liqing instructed Xiao Er to reorganize the cups and plates, and cut a few catties of mutton, but Xiao Er said: "Our roast sheep in the north is the most fresh fat, but it is sold at least half of it." Sanniang said with a smile: "Then come and roast a sheep, and you will also come to a few jars of northern spirits." He ordered dozens of siu mai as dim sum, a chicken, a goose, and a few plates of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Yang Tinghe said with a smile: "It is worthy of being a heroine among women, and it is so bold to order some food." Sanniang said with a smile: "When you come to the Northland, there are many heroes of Yan Zhao, so you naturally have to follow the customs." Li Qing flattened her mouth and said, "Look at how you two can finish eating!" Yang Tinghe and Sanniang both laughed.

When it was young, the roast sheep came up first, it was a roast sheep to make a large plate to be served, and it was not cut, looking at the golden roast of the outer skin, half a piece of incision, only to see that the mutton was extremely tender, and the practice was very different from the Central Plains, Sanniang knew that cumin was used to roast when he smelled it, and it was indeed a very common roast mutton in the north.

After a while, the wine and meat were on the table, Sanniang invited Yang Tinghe to eat wine, Yang Tinghe was also very heroic, raised the wine jar, and Sanniang and Liqing were full of sifting a big bowl, and poured a big bowl by themselves, and drank it all when the bowl was raised, and praised it: "Good wine!" After drinking a bowl, he took out the knife at his waist, cut a piece of mutton, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and ate it with the style of a heroic man of Yan Zhao.

Sanniang looked at it and raised her thumbs and praised: "What a strong man, and he really has the heroic style of Yan Zhao who is generous and sad." As he spoke, he also pulled out a small silver knife from his bosom, cut off a large piece of mutton, and ate it in a big gulp, and drank a large bowl of wine.

Li Qing and Yang Tinghe were stunned, Li Qing sighed and said: "Only you can make people feel that this picture is beautiful and heroic, soft and strong." Yang Tinghe was also stunned and said: "The heroine of women really lives up to her reputation. After a pause, Yang Tinghe slapped the table, which startled Liqing, only to hear Yang Tinghe say: "Okay!" If you don't get drunk today, you won't return! ”

At that moment, Yang Tinghe raised the bowl and drank with Sanniang, the two of them took a sip of wine and meat, and ate very heartily, Liqing was stunned on the side, and forgot about her own food. After a while, the roast sheep was swept away by the two winds, and most of it was eaten, and the wine was also drunk three jars, Yang Tinghe was already a little drunk, but Sanniang was more and more energetic.

Liqing stole the air, quietly touched Sanniang's still smooth stomach under the table, and said to herself strangely: "If you eat too much, you don't see bloating, and I don't know where to eat." Sanniang couldn't help laughing, glared at Liqing, and said secretly: "Clean up after you at night." ”

When I was eating and drinking, I only heard the noisy voices of people downstairs, and a few men hugged upstairs, Yang Tinghe looked at it with drunken eyes, and said with great joy: "A few of my brothers came, and when they came today, they had a deal to do, but I came first, so I left a letter with a few of them and invited them to come and meet together." ”

Sanniang was also overjoyed and said: "Since they are all brothers, please come and eat together." At the moment, Yang Tinghe introduced a few into the Accord, and the first two were rough and heroic, dressed in short clothes, and they were not afraid of the cold spring in the northern country, and the muscles on their arms were pierced, which looked powerful and powerful, and they looked very similar, and they knew at a glance that they were the two brothers.

Yang Tinghe introduced Sanniang, and several people saluted Sanniang, and Sanniang returned the salute with a smile: "I don't know the names of several big brothers." ”

Yang Tinghe pointed to the two and said: "These two nicknames Yanjing Shuanghu, Han Bai and Han Song, the two brothers, Yanjing people's clan, the ancestor is the Song **** general, just because the ancestor was seriously injured in the north when he accompanied the Song Emperor on the northern expedition, so he was not allowed to return to the Central Plains. Both of them use big iron spears, and their martial arts are very powerful. ”

Han Bai and Han Song said loudly together: "I have heard the name of a young female hero for a long time, and she is the first person in the Central Plains rivers and lakes. Sanniang said a few words humbly, Yang Tinghe pointed to another lean man, this man was dressed as a scribe, but his clothes were full of patches, his face was yellow and thin, and he seemed to be sick, but his eyes were very bright, and Sanniang knew at a glance that this person must be a master of cultivating the atmosphere of the inner family.

I only listened to Yang Tinghe and said: "This is Cui Jing, an iron abacus, who once won the third place in the first department of the Liao State Rite Department, and later served as an official to the Liao State Hanlin Bachelor's Order, and then because of the traitorous ministers, he lost his official position and returned to his hometown, and he did business with me a few times. Don't look at his sick appearance, just because he was weak and sick when he was a child, there are people who have attained the Tao to teach a set of internal breathing methods, and his internal strength is quite good. What is even more rare is to be good at calculations and proficient in writing and ink. ”

Cui Jing arched his hand and said weakly: "I have heard a lot about the name of the female berthmaster, and when I see it today, it is really a fortunate thing, and it is enough to be born in a wish." Sanniang smiled: "You brothers, one has no regrets even if you see it, and the other has enough wishes, so I don't know how to deal with myself." ”

Everyone laughed, Yang Tinghe pointed to the last tower-like black strong man, this big man is burly, the Han brothers are already extremely stout men, this big black man is even older and more robust than the two of him, and what is even more rare is that this person has a dark complexion at first glance, a high nose and deep eyes, and he does not look like a person from the Central Plains.

I only listened to Yang Tinghe and said: "This brother's name is Qianjin Ding Fei Song, his father is a Kunlun slave under the account of the emperor of Liao, because he was married to the mother of the Fei brothers, he gave birth to him, and he took his mother's surname." Just because his parents were slaves in the Liao Palace, he soon found out that he had a child in private, so he was both executed. If he was left behind, he would have died, but my father rescued him and brought him home to take care of him, and I grew up like brothers and sisters. ”

Sanniang's heart shook slightly, she didn't want Yang Tinghe to tell Fei Song's life experience so truthfully, she really treated herself like her own, and said at the moment: "Brother Fei is also a poor person. It sounds like I admire Brother Fei's mother very much, it is rare to have such a strange woman, dare to love and hate, and she is also a heroine, it is with her that she can raise characters like Brother Fei. ”

Hearing Sanniang praise her mother, Fei Song was also overjoyed, and said with a big smile: "As long as the owner doesn't dislike my humble birth, it's fine." Sanniang said: "All men are equal, why be humble and rich?" At that moment, Sanniang invited a few people to sit together, and personally ate wine with a few cups. (To be continued.) )
