Chapter 60: Li Long's Dharma
Yuanhang got up very early, woke up Tang Ling, prepared the carriage and prepared to return to Qianling. Wanyue and Qinghe also got up one after another and packed their packages in the room. Yuanhang was about to go in to help, when he saw a team coming in front of him.
The team stopped in front of the inn. Zhan Hu stepped out of the carriage with a smile.
"Lord Zhan, is this ......," Yuanhang asked puzzled.
Zhan Hu said with a smile: "It's a good thing, the emperor asked me to come to reward me." ”
"Reward?" Yuanhang was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, hurry up and call the second daughter, the emperor will be rewarded." Zhan Hu set aside the voyage and said, "It's none of your business, I didn't reward you this time." ”
Yuanhang glared at Zhan Hu, and said secretly in his heart: It's just that the emperor doesn't mean enough, and you don't give face.
Wanyue and Qinghe walked out and knelt down for Zhan Hu. Zhan Hu hurriedly stopped and said, "You don't need a big gift, just stand and receive the reward." ”
Clearing his throat, Zhan Hu said loudly: "The emperor has a reward." Appreciate Tang Wanyue, ten pieces of Xia Qinghe silk, two boxes of jewelry, two jewels, twenty taels of gold, and two hundred taels of silver. ”
"The people's girl receives the reward." The two of them gave the gift and received the reward.
Zhan Hu pulled Yuan Hang aside and said, "I have given the emperor Ming, you are in danger of going to Yizhou, I will send all the dark spirits to protect you." ”
"This ...... Thank you, Ambassador. "Yuanhang is grateful to Zhan Hu from the bottom of my heart, without him, there would be no place for me today.
"When you return to the back hall, they will go to Yizhou with you." Zhan Hu patted Yuanhang's chest, and Zhengse said: "Take care all the way, after dealing with the matter of Qianling, go to Yizhou immediately to take office, where you are needed more." ”
"Take care, adults." Yuanhang nodded, took a step back and saluted Zhan Hu's fist.
Sending off Zhan Hu, the voyage is called Wanyue, Qinghe got into the carriage and headed for Qianling. He rode his horse to Situ's house.
"Uncle, the little nephew is about to go back to Qianling, I don't know what else my uncle has to say?" Situ Hao was looking at the map in the hall, and Yuanhang stood behind him and said.
Situ Hao turned around and looked at Yuanhang, turned around and pointed to the map and said, "Yuanhang, this is Xiaoliang Sizhou, take a look." ”
Before sailing, I saw the map drawn on a whole cowhide. Xiaoliang is close to the Houtang Mansion, and the largest state capital has the word Yizhou written on it. To the north of Yizhou is Guzhou, and to the north of Guzhou is Kaizhou, and to the east is Xingzhou. From the point of view of distribution, Kai and Xing Erzhou and Guzhou are inverted in the shape of a glyph, while Guzhou is closely connected with Yizhou.
"Do you see clearly?" Situ Hao didn't look at the voyage, but stared at the map and asked.
"Well, the geographical location of Yizhou is far more superior than that of Houtang Mansion, and from Xiaoliang troops must pass through Yizhou. Yizhou is only connected with Guzhou, and if you hold Yizhou, you will have no worries in the back hall. This is not the case in Guzhou, which has opened and prospered two states on both sides. If we attack Guzhou, Xiaoliang's soldiers and horses can be reinforced from the two states behind us. And we have only one way to attack Guzhou. That is to say, the opponent is easy to defend, and we are difficult to attack. On the contrary, if we occupy Guzhou, the other side can attack Guzhou from two directions, and it is difficult for us to defend, but the other side is easy to attack. Yuanhang pointed on the map and said with Situ Hao. Situ Hao nodded again and again after hearing this.
"Well, that's good." Situ Hao cast an appreciative look at the voyage.
"Uncle is to warn the little nephew not to be in a hurry. It is far better to defend Yizhou than to capture Guzhou. Yuanhang said to Situ Hao with a smile.
"Haha, I am very relieved that you go to Yizhou. I didn't expect you to have a deep understanding of military strategy, and you can be a handsome talent. Wait a minute. Situ Hao turned around and walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a letter.
"You go to Yizhou, hand over this letter to General Sun Ke, and hope that you and others will work together to protect my country." Situ Hao handed the letter to the voyage.
Yuanhang took the letter, saluted Situ Hao, and said, "Uncle, rest assured, the little nephew will do his best." ”
"That's right, voyage. After you returned to Qianling, you brought the little girl Yilan to the back hall, I haven't seen her for a long time, and her mother misses her. Situ Hao said.
"Uncle, don't worry, the little nephew will definitely bring the young lady back safely." After the voyage finished speaking, he said goodbye to Situ Hao, and rode out of the city to chase Wanyue them.
Catch up with the carriage, abandon the horse and get on the car, laugh and play with the second daughter all the way, with the company of the second daughter, I don't feel that the road is far away, and I arrived at Qianling in only two days.
sailed into the county guard's mansion, and Li Mo and others hurriedly greeted him.
"Congratulations on your promotion to the prefect of Yizhou." Li Mo said with a smile.
"Haha, isn't Master Li also promoted to garrison, can the oracle be transmitted?" Yuanhang also asked with a smile in return.
"It's here, it reached the house yesterday." Li Mo replied.
"Well, master, this new county guard is my brother-in-law, you need to help him well. The Qianling Rebellion must be kept in mind, and you must not be careless. Yuanhang instructed Li Mo.
"Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials will definitely do it personally." Li Mo nodded again and again.
"In August, you go and gather the dark spirits, and you will leave Yizhou tomorrow." The voyage commanded.
"Yes, sir." August should then turn and leave.
"Dao Zi, go to the prison with me." The figure of Li Long appeared in Yuanhang's mind, which was the most important thing for him to return to Qianling.
"Voyage ......" A crisp shout came, and Li Qiu rushed in like a child.
"Hehe, Liqiu, I'm here to pick you up." When Yuanhang saw Liqiu, he wanted to take advantage of it, but Li Mo and the others were by his side, so he had to give up. Then he said: "Wanyue and Qinghe are also here, you go to see them first, and I will come back after I go out to do some business." ”
"Hmm." When Liqiu heard that the two sisters were coming together, her face turned red inexplicably, and she glanced at Yuanhang affectionately and turned around and ran towards the back house.
Yuanhang was about to order Dao Zi, but saw Qiushui walk in with tea. Qiushui put the tea on the table and said, "My lord is hard, please use tea." ”
Yuanhang glanced at it, took a sip of the teacup, and said: "Qiushui, Li Shoubei treats you well, I'll give him a ride in a while, will you go with you?" ”
After hearing this, Qiushui lowered his head and said, "My lord, the slave and maid are now your maids, and there is only one master in my heart. ”
"Huh, huh?" Yuanhang smiled for a moment, and then said, "Then will you go to the restaurant in the future?" If you still want to go, I've got some new news. ”
When Qiushui heard this, he knelt down with a thud, and cried in a low voice: "My lord forgives my sins, and the slave knows my mistakes." It's just that the status of the slave is low, and she doesn't dare to disobey. ”
When he saw the autumn water like this, he felt pity. I think this girl is smart and clever, and Li Long has fallen, so there should be no threat to herself. Then he said, "Listen, I will do good to those who are faithful to me." Whoever rebels against me, I will punish him. Thinking of your youth, I will spare you for the time being. You can choose to leave or stay with me, and I won't stop you. ”
"My lord, the slave and maid are grateful for your forgiveness, and I am willing to serve your lord by your side, without two hearts." Qiushui didn't expect Yuanhang to give her a chance, and hurriedly showed her loyalty.
"Get up, you go to the green lotus room, and from today you serve her." Yuanhang thought that Qinghe was too tired, so he sent Qiushui to her. thought of Liqiu again, and then said: "You go down and tell Chunyue to let her follow Liqiu and serve her well." ”
"Yes, slave and maid obey." Qiushui hurriedly stood up and retreated.
Yuanhang ordered the kitchen to cook a few delicious dishes, and went to the yamen prison with Dao Zi.
When he entered the prison, he saw a person sitting cross-legged on the ground, his long hair had been scattered, and his face was covered in a messy manner. Yuanhang took a breath and said, "Li Long, I've come to see you." ”
When the man heard the voice, he turned around and brushed his hair with his hand, and when he saw that it was Li Long, he was already emaciated.
"Lord Ye......" Li Long saw that it was a long voyage, and staggered to his feet, with iron chains on his hands and feet.
Yuanhang ordered someone to open the iron chain in Li Long's hand and put the wine and food on the table. Sitting opposite Li Long, Dao Zi kept looking at Li Long, standing behind Yuanhang to protect.
"Li Long, I'm here to see you off. The emperor remembered that you had guarded the Qianling Tomb for many years, and gave you a pot of wine. Thank you. Yuanhang didn't have any expression, so he said lightly.
Li Long already understood that not having a different body is the greatest favor to himself. But he still asked eagerly: "My lord, ...... the family of the criminal?"
"Don't worry, I have protected them and will send them to Luzhou tomorrow." Yuanhang replied lightly.
Li Long burst into tears after hearing this, slowly knelt down in front of Yuanhang, and said, "Thank you for the emperor's grace, and Lord Xie will be fulfilled." "Knock the head three times to the voyage.
"Get up, have a good meal, and go with confidence." Yuanhang was a little soft-hearted and helped Li Long up.
Li Long sat down, his family was safeguarded, and he had no worries. It's sweet to eat. After eating, he hugged his fist at Yuanhang and said, "Thank you, my lord." This kind of kindness Li Long will repay in the next life. After saying that, he didn't use the glass, picked up the flask and drank it. After a few moments, the corner of his mouth bleeds and he dies.
Yuanhang stood up and walked to the door, and said to the official at the door: "Find a place to bury." ”
"Yes, sir." The official bent down in response.
"Dao Zi, you go and arrange for Li Long's family to be sent to the Luzhou border gate." After Yuanhang finished speaking, he walked out without looking back. Out of prison, Yuanhang exhaled deeply. He left the house alone and walked towards Situ Zhongda's house.
