It's late spring again, and the rain is sporadic and sporadic in the rain.

On both sides of the spacious official road, dark green and light green, the spring color is thick.

Hebei, Shandong, Longyou, Shanxi, are full of beacons and bandits. However, on the road from Luoyang to Gongxian, there is a hint of prosperity and noise. Pedestrians rushed by. On the side of the road, the farmers are busy. From time to time, there are cars passing by, and you can still see the boats and boats driving on the Luoshui from afar. Compared with other places, Heluo is quiet, not leisurely.

Let him be in flames all over the place, and I will guard the one-third of an acre of land and live happily.

Whether the emperor is mediocre or sage, in fact, it doesn't matter to the common people. As long as you can have a peaceful life and eat a full stomach, it is enough. Fortunately, although the land of Gyeonggi was ravaged by war three years ago, it is relatively peaceful compared to other places.

A group of chariots marched along Luoshui.

There were two carts in total, accompanied by dozens of other slaves.

A young man in his twenties, riding on a green horse, looked around curiously. The green horse was born with a silver mane. It looks like he is not young anymore, and he still holds his head high, revealing a majestic demeanor that looks at the world.

Green horse, name lightning!

"Mowgli, there is Heishidu in front."

A handsome young man urged the horse to come to the young man, pointed to the ferry in front of him and said, "On the other side of the river is the Black Stone Pass." After the checkpoint, there are ten miles more, and you can see Gong County. Auntie and they have been on the road since the morning, and the water and rice have not entered so far. Why don't you take a short rest at the ferry and then cross the river?

Anyway, you will definitely be able to reach Gong County before dark, what do you think? ”

The young man is named Wuji, and the eldest grandson is Wuji.

And the handsome young man who spoke was the son of Dou Rail, the county guard of Meishan County, Dou Fengjie.

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded, turned the horse to the side of a carriage, and said softly through the curtain: "Mother, there is the Black Stone Ferry in front." Fengjie said that after a short rest at the ferry, he will go to Gongxian, what do you think? ”

A voice like a silver bell came from the car, "Little brother, my mother is tired." Then take a break and eat something. ”

"Got it!"

The eldest grandson Wuji replied and returned to Dou Fengjie's side.

"In that case, then I'll go to the ferry first and find a place to stay."

"There is labor!"

Dou Fengjie smiled and urged the horse forward. The four black-clothed knights urged the horses to follow Dou Fengjie closely and ran towards the direction of the Black Stone Ferry.

The eldest grandson, Wuji, raised his head and glanced at the sky.

But I saw the spring clouds rolling up, covering the sun.

It's been six years, and the boy who was reprimanded by his father back then has now become a man from Hehegong County. When I think about it, it's really a trick. In the past, he said that he was high, but since the death of his father, Perak Hall has gradually withered. Sun Shunde, the patriarch of the clan, fled to Taiyuan because of the unsuccessful conscription the year before last, and lived incognito; Although the second brother is in charge of Perak Hall, he is only encouraged to maintain it. The three eldest grandsons Xingying also failed to enter the Tai Academy, and now in the Qi Palace, he serves as an inconspicuous chronicle, and to put it bluntly, he is a miscellaneous worker.

Uncle Gao Shilian was implicated by the military department Shangshu Hu Silu and was assigned to Lingnan.

As for myself, I also have to go to the door of the boy with a hanging bun who used to learn art in Perak Hall with my mother and sister, which is really interesting.

Thinking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but sigh lightly.

That guy is a little distracted, but he still does his best for himself. Not to mention that he was thousands of miles away that year, he sent his sister to Minshu for medical treatment. In the past six years, he has spent all his expenses in Minshu, even including his own study needs, all of which he has borne by himself.

If it weren't for him, I'm afraid I would have had a very hard time in the past six years...... Although the mother was not satisfied, it was the father's will after all. And that guy is really powerful, after reversing the Zheng family, he also mixed up a baron. So much so that when Dou Junshou came to the door to ask for marriage, explaining that his sister would serve a husband with Pei Niangzi as a flat wife, his mother first expressed her anger, but then agreed. When he came back this time, even the second brother Hengan did not dare to slack off.

"Mowgli, Mowgli!"

Dou Fengjie beckoned at the door of a wine shop next to the ferry, waking up the eldest grandson Wuji from his contemplation.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at Heishidu.

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly dismounted and walked to the side of the carriage.

"Mother, the ferry has arrived...... Guanyin, help your mother out to rest. Xiao Dou found a wine shop, let's eat first, and then cross the river. ”

The curtain of the car was raised, and Mrs. Gao slowly walked out with the support of a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth.

The girl's age is about fourteen or fifteen, with a melon seed face, willow eyebrows, a pair of big eyes, and a pair of ** pear vortices on her cheeks, which shows a little softness. Maybe it is moistened by the aura of Minshu, and her skin is delicate, like mutton fat white jade.

There was still a bit of childishness and innocence on her face, and after carefully helping Mrs. Gao to get out of the car, the girl looked around curiously.

"Little brother, is this Heishidu? How far is it from Gong County? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji showed a caring smile and said with a smile: "It's not far away!" After crossing the river at noon, it is estimated that it will take an hour or two to arrive.

Well, your little brother doesn't know that Guanyin is coming, and when he sees you, he may be surprised. ”

When the girl heard this, she blushed.

Mrs. Gao was dissatisfied: "Wuji, why are you happy with your sister again?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's mood suddenly improved, and he apologized again and again.

At this time, Dou Fengjie also stepped forward and invited Mrs. Gao's family to rest in the wine shop.

At the door of the wine shop, a cloth banner hung up. However, it is different from other liquor stores, and the words "wine" or "tea" are written on the guise of other houses. But the cloth cover of this wine shop is embroidered with a white goose. Other than that, there is no wording.

Dou Fengjie has grown up, nearly eight feet tall, and his eyebrows are clear.

Bashan Shushui added a bit of grace to him, although he was born with wide shoulders and thick back, he would not give people a vulgar feeling, more like a big boy next door.

"Brother Fengjie, is this wine shop good at cooking geese?"

After sitting down, the eldest grandson asked curiously.

Only asked Dou Fengjie to squirt out a mouthful of water, and the eldest grandson Wuji coughed repeatedly.

"Probably...... Maybe you will need Guanyin in the future, and you will cook the goose yourself. ”

Mrs. Gao was stunned, "Mowgli, Hugh is talking nonsense." Guanyin, don't listen to your brother's nonsense, the goose on this banner ......"

A guy from a wine shop came up and said, "This lady, the goose on this banner is the mark of my son-in-law, don't talk nonsense, if you don't get it right, it will cause trouble." ”

"Your son-in-law, are you very domineering?"

The guy was a little unhappy, "Little lady, my son-in-law is a well-known good man in Xingyang County, and it has nothing to do with the word 'domineering'. It's just that your joke just now is really disrespectful to my son-in-law. That's why I kindly reminded you that if you are in Gong County, I am afraid that I will drive you out immediately. ”

The eldest grandson asked curiously, "Why is that?" ”

The guy smiled and said with some pride: "Three years ago, Yang Xuan felt that Xingyang was in trouble, making many places in Xingyang into ruins.

It's my son-in-law, who blocked the thief.

After the winter, my son-in-law saw that the people were difficult to wrap their stomachs and were displaced, so he called on the gentry of Xingyang to open more than 300 porridge sheds. Not only Xingyang County, but also Yingchuan, Dongjun, and Henan County, all of whom have been favored.

In the past two years, Gong County has gradually become peaceful.

There is no need to open a porridge shack. However, Childe is worried that there will be natural disasters again, and it may not be convenient to temporarily lay it at that time. So all the more than 300 porridge shacks were discarded and turned into wine shops and tea houses, which were for the convenience of pedestrians. You see, as long as the wine shop tea house with the 'goose' mark on the banner is all in the name of my son-in-law. This not only made it easier for passers-by, but also resettled many people who did not have land.

Other liquor shops and tea houses are all set up on their own.

Only we, the wine shops and tea houses with 'goose' flags, are all under the name of my son-in-law. So, please don't laugh at it. ”

Mrs. Gao's eyes showed a touch of appreciation.

"Thank you, little brother, but it's my daughter who is not sensible, please bear with me."

Dou Fengjie couldn't help but say: "I didn't expect that Brother Qing is so famous now?" ”

And the eldest grandson Wuji did not make a sound.

He observed the people in the wine shop, and although the area of this wine shop was not large, it was also complete. One steward, four men, five people in all. The steward is basically settling accounts behind the counter, and the four guys are all shrewd and capable.

A small wine shop, no matter how big the income is, it is just like that.

That guy actually placed five people in a wine shop, what is the purpose?

The probe glanced at the banner hanging at the door, the eldest grandson Wuji, thoughtful...... ****

After a simple meal, the eldest grandson Wuji and his party rested for a while in the wine shop, and then checked out and left.

The ferry boat has also been found, and the group boarded the ferry, quickly crossed Luoshui, and went straight to Heishi Pass. After checking the street signs at the checkpoint, everyone boarded the car and got on the horse and hurried towards Gongxian. On the way, I saw military horses passing from time to time, which made the atmosphere tense.

"Why are so many military horses passing by here?"

Dou Fengjie said in a low voice: "I heard that Your Majesty will travel to the capital of Xingjiang, so there will be a transfer of military horses." ”

"Your Majesty wants to visit the Jiangdu again?"

"yes...... I heard that Your Majesty has often had nightmares recently, dreaming that there was a military disaster in Xiyuan, and he couldn't sleep at night. If it weren't for the comfort of the women in the palace, there would be no sleep all night. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly waved his hand, "Fengjie, don't talk nonsense." ”

"How can I talk nonsense, Luoyang is spread like this."

The eldest grandson Wuji sneered, "Could it be that the people of Luoyang, all of them are lying on the wall of Xiyuan, staring at His Majesty to sleep?" How they pass it on is their business. But we can't believe it, let alone tell it privately...... If you don't get it right, you'll get into big trouble. ”

Dou Fengjie scratched his head and promised in a low voice.

A team of horses swept past at a gallop.

Immediately, a young man, when he saw the silver-maned horse under the crotch of the eldest grandson Wuji, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Stop the horse!"

He called sharply, then waved his hand, and commanded the horse team to rush forward and surround the chariots of Changsun Wuji and others.

The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned, and immediately urged him to step forward and said, "Who are you waiting for, want to do bandit things on the official road?" ”

Immediately, the young man sneered, "Banditry? In my opinion, it is you who do the things of banditry. The mount under your crotch is clearly the horse that my family lost some time ago. I am Gong County Fa Cao joined the army Yin Zongdao, and now I said that I have obtained the stolen goods, and I can take them to the county government for interrogation.

Come on, arrest all these people. ”

There were dozens of men under his command, and he immediately dismounted and rushed forward.

The slaves did not know what was happening, and one by one they panicked.

The eldest grandson Wuji heard the clue, it turned out that this guy took a fancy to my horse. If it is a different horse, the eldest grandson Wuji has the idea that if he can do one less thing, he will give it to the other party. But this silver-maned horse is owned by his father, Changsun Sheng.

In his later years, Changsun Sheng passed through the Turks, and the Turkic Qimin Khan was extremely in awe of him.

Therefore, he gave his beloved horse to Changsun Sheng, and said: The general is powerful outside the territory, so he is named his horse lightning, how strong!

The general's reputation is resounding outside the country, and this horse can only be regarded as meeting the master if it is matched with the general. Later, this silver-maned horse also received the name of 'Lightning'. After the death of the eldest grandson Sheng, the family property was divided between the eldest grandson Hengan and the eldest grandson Shunde. The eldest grandson Wuji was going to Minshu at that time, so he didn't ask for anything, except for the notes and books left by the eldest grandson Sheng, he only needed this silver-maned horse.

Wuji couldn't help but laugh angrily, "Bold thief, I want to see who dares to touch me." ”

In his bones, he upheld the pride of Changsun Sheng. Although the eldest grandson Wuji said that although he smiled, he could get angry, and it was also terrifying.

He pulled out his long knife and pointed at the house slaves who wanted to rush over.

On the other side, Dou Fengjie also sank his face.

His surname is on the weak side, but compared to the cowardice of his childhood, after six or seven years of training, he has improved greatly. In addition, with Dou Rail's experience in the army, he also has a strong spirit. I saw him raise his hand to pick up his bow, and without saying a word, he bent his bow and took arrows. I heard the sound of the bowstring clattering, and a sharp arrow flew out, and this one had just put his hand on the wheel of the carriage, and was about to jump into the arm of the carriage. The slave screamed, folded his arms, and wailed.

Yin Zongdao was stunned for a moment, and shouted: "Do you dare to resist? Give it to me! ”

At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves from the official road.

I saw dust and smoke billowing out, and the sound of hooves sounded like thunder, as if there were thousands of troops.

"Young Master Yin, please stop."

The visitor shouted loudly, and in the blink of an eye he came to the chariot. A young man at the head, about twenty-six or seventeen, was born with a thin waist and a heroic spirit. He had a sweaty horse on his crotch, a black armor cover, a black robe, and a large belt around his waist. Behind him, there were forty or fifty knights. Looking at the horses and equipment, it is far from being comparable to Yin Zongdao's command. All of them are majestic and murderous.

When they arrived at the side of the chariot, a knight raised his hand, and the knights behind him brushed the horse together, silent.

Just that fierce aura that exudes from the outside is enough to make people feel suffocated. A discerning person can see that these people are definitely warriors who have experienced tragic battles and walked out of the sea of corpses and blood. When Yin Zongdao saw these people, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he forced out a smile.

"It turned out to be Brother Shen!"

"Yin Gongzi, in this broad daylight, on the official road, how can there be such a big movement?"

"Oh, I noticed that these people were suspicious, so I went up and checked them. I don't know that these people will do anything with me if they don't say a word. Hence ......"

"That's a bold one, and it deserves to be taken."

As he spoke, the young man immediately looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and the others.

It didn't matter what he saw, it only surprised him, and he quickly turned over from the horse, took a few steps forward, and saluted: "Fourth son, why are you here?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but be stunned, squinted his eyes, and looked at the young man carefully.

It's vaguely familiar, but I can't remember the calendar.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency......"

The young man hurriedly said: "In Xia Shenguang, I am in charge of my son-in-law's family." When my son-in-law was studying art in Perak Hall, I was always with me, did the fourth son remember? ”

Without waiting for the eldest grandson Wuji to speak, Dou Fengjie on the side exclaimed: "You are Shen Guang?" Meat Flying Fairy! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji can be regarded as remembering it now.

When that guy was learning art by his father's side, this Shen Guang had been following him left and right, and he was a follower. The eldest grandson Wuji is impressed, but it is not very profound. After all, the eldest grandson Wuji back then was the son of the dignified General Xiaowei, and he could call that guy a brother, but he might not pay attention to the people around him. As for the name of the Meat Flying Immortal, it comes from the woman of the Pei family in Hedong. The eldest grandson Wuji has also heard of it, and he has a lot of impressions of this name, but he has never been able to meet the real person.

It turns out that this is the person!

Shen Guang looked at Dou Fengjie in surprise, "This son ......"

"My name is Dou Fengjie, and I am Brother Qing's brother. When I followed my father into Minshu, you hadn't gone yet.

But I heard Xiong Da Kuroko mention you, and that guy also said that in terms of strength, he dares to be the first, but in terms of martial arts, he is not your opponent. ”

"Ah, it's Dou Gongzi."

Shen Guang hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and then pulled the young man beside him and said, "He is Su Lie, the commander of the Mo Qilin, and he is very valued by my son-in-law." ”

He whispered a few words in Su Lie's ear, and Su Lie, who had been cool and silent, suddenly showed respect.

"It was actually the two sons in front of each other, Su Lie was rude."

What a clever steward and a brave general. Looking at the cavalry army under Su Lie's command, it behaved consistently, obviously after strict training. However, where does the name of this ink unicorn come from?

The eldest grandson Wuji was puzzled in his heart, and Shen Guang had already come to Yin Zongdao over there.

I saw that his face was gloomy, "Yin Gongzi, did you say they were bandits?" ”

Yin Zongdao faintly felt bad, but in front of many people, it was difficult to change his words, "I just doubt ......"

"Doubt? Yin Gongzi, even if it is my son-in-law, he doesn't dare to doubt them, you actually came to suspect it, and tried to use force? ”

"Uh......"

Without waiting for Yin Zongdao to speak, the eldest grandson Wuji said on the side: "Shen Guang, this person is here for the lightning under my crotch. This is the beloved horse left by my father, who followed my father and galloped to the north. But when he saw it, he said that I had stolen his horse, and without saying a word, he wanted to take us to the officials. ”

Shen Guangwen laughed, "Since this is the case, then go and see the order of Chai County, and listen to the order of Chai County, how to say it." ”

After that, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his expression was indifferent.

Yin Zongdao shuddered, and hurriedly said, "Misunderstanding, Brother Shen, this is a misunderstanding." ”

"If it's just a misunderstanding, that's it."

Shen Guang glanced at Yin Zongdao, "But is it a misunderstanding, after I find out my son-in-law, I will naturally talk to Ling Zun......"

"Fourth son, Dou son, please go first, I will let Su Lie accompany the guard."

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned, and he wanted to pursue it. But Mrs. Gao didn't want to stay here. She and the eldest grandson Wujian listened to it in the car, although they were quite angry with that Yin Zongdao, but they didn't want to delay.

"Mowgli, let's settle down first.

In this matter, presumably Yanqing will give us justice, and you don't want to make another trouble. ”

Now that Mrs. Gao has spoken, it is not easy for the eldest grandson Wuji to entangle it any longer. He and Dou Fengjie glanced at each other, nodded, and urged the carriage and horse to march. Su Lie raised his hand and shook his fist back and forth. In an instant, those ink unicorns were divided into two teams, one in front and one behind, escorting the chariots.

"Yin Gongzi, I'm afraid you're going to be in trouble now."

Shen Guang smiled indifferently and turned over on his horse.

Yin Zongdao didn't dare to take any more hands at this time, and hurriedly dismounted to stop Shen Guang, "Old Shen, what are these people from?" ”

"You don't have to ask what the origin is, you just need to go back and tell your father, and say that my son-in-law will come to visit you these days."

After Shen Guang finished speaking, he whipped his horse and walked in the direction of Heishi Pass.

Only Yin Zongdao was left, standing on the side of the road with a bit of despair, at a loss.

"Su Lie, right!"

The eldest grandson Wuji was on the road, walking side by side with Su Lie, he looked at the two teams of ink qilin in front and behind, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "These people, are they all trained by you?" ”

Su Lie hurriedly replied: "Fourth son, Su Lie doesn't dare to be greedy.

The Mo Qilin was formed by the men and horses trained by Gongzi when he fought against Goguryeo. At that time, Gongzi brought back twenty-four tiger guards from Goguryeo, all of whom were well-versed heroes. Later, the son and the Zheng family broke off the relationship, and the Qilin Pavilion was opened, so the Tiger Guard was renamed Mo Qilin. Ping Yueli is mainly responsible for guarding the Qilin Pavilion and the family house, and is trusted by the son, and Su Lie is the commander. ”

The implication is that this group of people only obeys the orders of one person.

Dou Fengjie couldn't help but say softly: "Yanqing is really a good hand in training." When he was in Meishan County, even Yu Laozhuguo praised him. ”

"Shhhh

Eldest Sun Wuji hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't you know?" Three years ago...... At the time of his killing, his family members mysteriously disappeared from the prison and have not been heard from since. Although the imperial court has given up, it may be that it is still secretly investigating the matter. You don't want to provoke Yanqing. ”

Dou Fengjie stuck out his tongue and nodded hurriedly.

Su Lie was expressionless on the side, and he didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two of them.

"By the way, who was that guy just now?"

"Yin Zongdao? He is the son of Yin De, the head of the Yin family, a gentleman in Gong County. Yin De and my son-in-law have some friendship, when Yang Xuan was in turmoil, Yin De once fought side by side with his son. Therefore, after Yang Thief was assessed, Yin De recommended to the Chai County Order to let Yin Zongdao take the position of Fa Cao.

This guy has always been like this, and Childe doesn't bother to associate with him.

The fourth son can rest assured, this matter, after the son comes back, he will definitely not give up. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, from Su Lie's words, heard a little problem.

"What's the matter, Yanqing isn't at home now?"

Su Lie nodded and said softly: "A few days ago, Gongzi followed Master Tanzong of Xinyuan Temple into the mountain to do things, so he is not at home now.

But if you count it, that is, the kung fu of these two days, he should return.

Childe just has to live in peace, if you feel bored, you can go to the Kirin Pavilion to play. Recently, Xue Gongzi and the Daoxin Master of Xinyuan Temple discussed the Tao, if the fourth prince is interested, why not go and join in the fun? Listening to Xu Jingzong, the controversy over there was very intense. ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and seemed to be quite moved.

Dou Fengjie asked suspiciously: "Su Lie, Brother Qing is so dignified, what is the purpose of entering the mountain?" ”

(To be continued)
