Li Zicheng took the brothers back to "Lijiazhai" and buried the brothers who died in the war in the back mountain. After that, the next steps were discussed overnight. Because of the huge losses this time, it is difficult to achieve great things by relying on the rest of "Lijiazhai" alone. Therefore, Li Zicheng proposed to return to his hometown in Shaanxi and find Shuangchengzi to cooperate.

As for why Li Zicheng led "Li Jiazhai" to leave his hometown, not far away, from Shaanxi to Suzhou and Hangzhou, that was in the early years, at that time Li Zicheng was still a servant of Zhu Qing's father, Master Zhu was transferred from Shaanxi to Suzhou and Hangzhou to take office, Li Zicheng had to follow Master Zhu to the south. A few years ago, the Zhu family was beheaded all over the house, Li Zicheng took some money from the Zhu Mansion in the run, he wanted to make another living, he didn't want to encounter the heavenly house, the people were not happy, Li Zicheng later called the brothers of Shaanxi to Suzhou, fell into the grass, and specialized in robbing the rich and helping the poor. In recent years, "Lijiazhai" has won the hearts of the people. But after all, it is a grass and a bad reputation, so "Li Jiazhai" has not been able to expand, not to mention that the government has paid very strict attention, especially since Shi Kefa took office, although he turned a blind eye, but "Li Jiazhai" is still under the control of the government. Therefore, it is difficult to make a comeback in another country.

Returning to his hometown has become the most practical choice for "Li Jiazhai", and after Li Zicheng saw the tattoo on Zhu Qing's right shoulder, he has been haunted by it, is this person a descendant of the Zhu family? Li Zicheng muttered.

"Brother Cheng, you said that the young man has a tattoo exactly like you, what does that mean?" Xiang Bo asked.

"You don't know. This tattoo was tattooed when I followed Master Zhu, and all the men in the Zhu Mansion had to tattoo the word 'ten', which was the code name of the Zhu Mansion, when the Emperor of the Apocalypse was still there, the ministers of the court and the central government were assigned a code name, so that Jin Yiwei could avoid accidental injury when performing the task, and the code name that Master Zhu received at that time was the word 'ten'. It stands to reason that the Zhu Mansion was beheaded all over the house back then, and there should be no one else alive except for me who escaped, but the young man actually tattooed the Zhu Mansion exactly the same, and judging from his appearance, he was definitely not a subordinate, I suspect that it is the eldest young master of the Zhu family. But it is said that Jin Yiwei found the body of Young Master Zhu in the burned Zhu Mansion back then, and it had been burned beyond recognition, but the waist card on his body was indeed the best proof. Li Zicheng shook his head as he spoke, unable to believe his guess.

"Even if the eldest young master of the Zhu family is still alive, even if he is that young man, so what? Didn't he kick you into the river and want your life? I think they protect each other, but dogs can't change eating! Huzi said indignantly.

"Huzi, don't talk nonsense. Have you met Master Zhu? Do you know who Master Zhu is? At that time, the Jin people committed my Daming, that is, Master Zhu and General Yuan Chonghuan actively resisted the enemy, so as to keep the Ming Dynasty, and now they were killed by traitors, and the emperor listened to slander and killed loyal ministers by mistake, resulting in Zhu's mansion being beheaded all over the house, and the people deeply regretted it. If the descendants of the Zhu family are still alive, and now they are in the hands of the government, I just can't help them, why bother saying those chilling words? Li Zicheng scolded Huzi, and Huzi had to bow his head and remain silent.

"If it is as the eldest brother said, that person is the descendant of the Zhu family, and for the sake of watching Master Zhu's loyal martyrdom, we should not stand idly by. It's just that ......" Xiang Bo is an old man of "Li Jiazhai" after all, and he is not as impertinent as Huzi.

"And whether he is a descendant of the Zhu family or not, I have already made up my mind to treat him, think about it? Did he really want my life when he kicked me into the water? Li Zicheng has always felt that it was not as simple as Zhu Qing saying that they robbed Chen Yuanyuan's way by suddenly being kicked by Zhu Qing, coupled with the tattoo of the word "ten", Li Zicheng has more reason to believe that Zhu Qing is saving himself rather than harming himself.

Li Zicheng said this, and everyone nodded.

"That's good. We immediately returned to our hometown in Shaanxi, and when my 'Lijiazhai' rested and replenished, we went to save the boy. Li Zicheng ordered.

"Immediately?" Huzi asked in surprise.

"That's right, today's action has already alarmed the Suzhou government, and I'm afraid it's too late to leave at dawn." Li Zicheng said.

"It's so late, by land or by water?" Xiang Bo asked.

"By land and water, we can't catch up with the big ships of Tianfu. When the Tian family changed the waterway just now, the carriages and horses were thrown on the outskirts of Suzhou City, and I had already led the horses together, and they were in that grove, and we could ride them when we went. "Li Ziguo has a natural talent for leadership and thinks things very thoughtfully.

"However, if there are robbers on land, I'm afraid it will ......," Xiang Bo said.

"And what are we?" Li Zicheng asked Uncle Xiang rhetorically, and everyone tacitly agreed. Look at each other and smile. "Huzi, take off the flag and take it away. Others, hurry up and pack up and travel light. Li Zicheng said to Huzi.

"Great!" Huzi replied briskly.

"Dad, mother's thing?" Yufeng asked Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng looked at his deceased wife's relics, sighed and said, "Take the tablet." ”

Although Yufeng really wanted to take away her mother's relics, her father's words were not unreasonable, how dangerous it was on the way, and whether she could save her life or not, so she put away the tablet dedicated to her mother and followed "Li Jiazhai" back to her hometown in Shaanxi.

In the night, the flag of "Lijiazhai" was slowly lowered, and the "Lijiazhai", which was famous in Suzhou and Hangzhou, left.

After they crossed the Grand Canal by boat, they went straight to the grove, and sure enough, the carriages and horses left behind by Tianfu were all there, and there was one horse in each hand, and there was still a surplus, Li Zicheng had to release the remaining horses, ride the tall horse of Lord Tian, and lead the "Li Jiazhai" to chase the big boat of Tianfu overnight. wants to save Zhu Qing and Xiaobao halfway and take them to Shaanxi Shuangcheng Walled City together.

At this time, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is starry at night, and it is either a fishing boat or a merchant ship that is brightly lit.

The guards who had rowed the boat all day were tired and rested at this moment. Lord Tian also knew that there was still a long way to go, and he could not rush for a while, so he ordered the whole ship to rest, and just let the wind take the sailboat there. In this way, the boat slowed down for a moment.

This is not a bad thing for Zhu Qing and Chen Yuanyuan, because arriving in the capital one day earlier means that they are separated one day earlier. This is what Zhu Qing doesn't want to see, but Chen Yuanyuan doesn't belong to him after all, so he can't ask for more time to cross with her. Thinking like this, Zhu Qing sneaked up from the bilge, wanting to see Chen Yuanyuan.

Although Lord Tian ordered the whole ship to rest, there was one person who could not fall asleep, and that was Liu Qingfeng, the leader of the guards with a knife. He had to escort this ship, how could he easily sleep? So even on the river with a high night of darkness and wind, Liu Qingfeng still pinned the long knife to his waist and patrolled around the boat.

Zhu Qing wants to meet Chen Yuanyuan privately, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

Just when Zhu Qing was trying his best to get close to Chen Yuanyuan, he suddenly heard Liu Qingfeng shouting, "Chase!" Then I saw two figures leaping into the water!
