Chapter 21: Tiger Rose
Before Chu Tianya could open his mouth to argue, Ma Kuo hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Chu, don't be stupid, my father-in-law has always been impartial and never selfish for half his life, and even his father-in-law's biological son Wang Xun has not been promoted, so he can only rely on his own ability to take the martial arts examination, and then fight on the battlefield with a knife and a gun. ”
"Shut up and listen to him!" Wang Yu interrupted Ma Kuo, raised his hand and pointed at Chu Tianya, "Are you willing, or are you unwilling?" ”
Chu Tianya couldn't help crying and laughing, and said in his heart that this Wang Yu is really straightforward, and sometimes he has a bit of the taste of an old naughty boy, and he forced me to be promoted! I can't pretend to be forced to do anything with him if he has good intentions, anyway, as long as I can achieve my goal, it doesn't matter what an official I am!
So Chu Tianya said: "As long as he has the opportunity to get close to Master Tong, the kid is willing to follow Wang Dutong, and listen to the drive before and after the saddle!" ”
"Haha!" Ma Kuo immediately smiled, "Brother Chu, you stay in the palace and continue to take care of that group of mules, it is difficult to get close to Master Tong." Wouldn't it be more convenient for your father-in-law to be your father-in-law's right-hand man, and you can enter and leave the palace barracks at will--it's just that Brother Chu's errand was said by Master Tong himself, and now the father-in-law wants to transfer people away and promote them exceptionally, and the child is about to turn against Xishan, wouldn't the connection of all kinds of past events make Mrs. Tong suspicious? ”
"My son's concerns are justified." Wang Yu nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Then I won't be promoted first, how can I let Chu Tianya still be a military envoy." Tomorrow I will find an excuse to ask the master for a fire head and a mule, and I will transfer you. That way, he shouldn't be suspicious. ”
"Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered another brown problem." Chu Tianya said, "Ma Dujian is about to go out in the near future, at that time, will Master Tong be suspicious or angry with Wang Dutong because of the relationship between the two of you?" ”
"No, it won't." Wang Yu said with great certainty, "The old man is a human being, and Master Tong has always known it. Even if it is a parent-child offense, the old man will never cover up his feelings, how can he conspire with Ma Kuo? - It's just that this time the old man is really complicit, and he will be ashamed of his trust and kindness to Master Tong in the past! ”
Chu Tianya and Ma Kuo looked at each other and smiled, and thought in unison, this Wang Yu is indeed a fair and upright person, and even Tong Guan can't bear to deceive!
The three of them had a long conversation about wine and food, and they didn't realize that the East wanted to know, and it was almost dawn. In order to avoid suspicion, the three of them dispersed before dawn, Wang Yu returned to the Dutong Mansion, Ma Kuan went to the palace barracks, and Chu Tianya stayed in the Star Picking Tower to stay.
Lying on the bed, Chu Tianya carefully recalled what happened on this day, which can be called a bad encounter, but it can also be said to be an adventure.
The successive appearances of Ma Kuo and Wang Yu seemed to make Chu Tianya see a rare glimmer of light in the darkness.
"I don't know if Xiao Linglong's side can say that the owner of Qixing Mountain will mediate for Ma Guangguang? I heard Ma Kuo say that the strength of the Taihang Jiushan Righteous Army is far stronger than that of the Eighteen Villages in Xishan. It would be nice if I could win them......" Chu Tianya thought about these questions, his mind was tired from drinking, and he fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up, it was noon. Chu Tianya himself thought it was funny, he had just become a new military envoy and took office, but he had made enough black money but he didn't do any, he was idle all day long and didn't return home all night, and no one cared about it. If it is a peaceful situation, such an official is easy to do.
After washing up, Chu Tianya ordered another breakfast to eat, and then returned to the county king's mansion without hurry, and entered the barracks through the back door.
Just about to inspect the work of the mule army under his command, an officer came to Chu Tianya, and said angrily: "Chu Tianya, you call a few people to drag ten carts of horse material to Wang Yu and Wang Dutong." From now on, stay and serve in his house, and make no mistake. ”
"The last will be ordered." Chu Tianya couldn't help but smile secretly, this Wang Yu's work efficiency is really high!
So Chu Tianya summoned his mule army, assembled mule carts to carry horse materials, and prepared to send them to the Dutong Mansion.
Jiang Laosan heard that Chu Tianya was going to be transferred to the capital of the Unified Mansion, and if he stayed here, he would not only lose the opportunity to be bullied, but he might also be bullied, so he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and begged Chu Tianya to take him away. Chu Tianya thought to himself that it was a favor anyway, and it would be easy for multiple acquaintances to be around, so he agreed.
The Metropolitan Mansion is next to the County Prince's Mansion, which is not only an organ of the Hebei Xuanfu Division and the Shengjie Army, but also a temporary residence of the Metropolitan Commander.
Chu Tianya dragged more than a dozen mule soldiers into the Dutong Mansion, and just after the goods were unloaded, a pawn came to call, saying that Wang Dutong had called the new Chu military envoy to interrogate.
Chu Tianya followed the pawn to Wang Yu's residence. While he was still outside the courtyard, he heard the shouting and shouting inside, and the sound of clubs and blades striking, and at the same time came the roar of the king's thunder.
"Son, dare to beat your father!"
Chu Tianya couldn't help but be taken aback - the dignified Wang Dutong was beaten by his son at home?
Hurriedly walked two steps, and when he entered the garden gate, Chu Tianya was relieved - it turned out that Wang Yu was practicing martial arts with others!
At this time, Wang Yu, who was nearly sixty years old, was wearing only a short underwear on his upper body, and holding a long stick in his hand was making the tiger and tiger angry, not at all like an old man with a sixtieth birthday. The man who fought him was a man in his early thirties, his upper body was sweating profusely, his body was shiny, his chest and back were full of tattoos, and his whole body was colorful and eye-catching.
Chu Tianya couldn't help but touch his chest, that's right, he also has a tattoo himself, and his chest is an eagle with wings spread high, extending from the collarbone to near the navel, occupying more than half of the entire body!
In the Song Dynasty, "tattoos" were a fashion, especially for military people, young men and women, and heroes of the rivers and lakes. Even the Great Song Dynasty recruited soldiers, and tattooed tattoos on the soldiers' faces or arms, indicating the belonging of the soldiers, so the recruitment of soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty was called "thorns".
Every soldier in Shengjie's army has tattoos, and Chu Tianya did not have tattoos on his face because he became a military envoy as soon as he joined the army.
"Son, watch out!"
Wang Yu was beating and scolding at the same time, without the slightest sign of mercy, as if he was on the battlefield to face a life-and-death enemy; And the young man dressed in embroidery, who also had a long stick in his hand, although he didn't dare to reply, he didn't show any weakness. The two of them are like two fierce tigers, fighting back and forth in the courtyard. For a time, the tiger was full of smoke and dust, and the horn was loud and shouting.
Chu Tianya, a layman, was dazzled, only knowing that these two of them were fighting very fiercely and good-looking, he couldn't help but marvel and envy in his heart, and at the same time thought to himself - although I have practiced some loose hand fighting, and my body is not bad, but if I fight with any one of these two, it will definitely be a move that has been overturned!
"I remember when I used to go online, I learned that although the Song Dynasty was weak for a hundred years, there were many people who practiced martial arts. My Chinese martial arts flourished in the Great Song Dynasty, and many real martial arts masters appeared. Chu Tianya thought while admiring the battle between the two, "I have only been here in the Great Song Dynasty for a long time, and I have indeed met a lot of such people. There are two in front of him, Xiao Linglong and the two entourages beside him, Xue Yu, the drunken sword king, and the mysterious He Bo......"
"Ahh
An exclamation disrupted Chu Tianya's thoughts, and when he looked around, it turned out that the young man was knocked to the ground by Wang Yu's stick, and he was lying on the ground snorting and couldn't get up.
"It's useless! Eater!! Wang Yu slammed the long stick in his hand to the ground and scolded, "If you were in the battle, you would have died!" ”
"Awesome!" Chu Tianya couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "No wonder the saying goes, 'Fists are afraid of young and strong sticks are afraid of old men', Wang Yu, who is nearly sixty years old, is really a martial arts master!" ”
A young man dressed in embroidery got up from the ground, and bowed to Wang Yu with a guilty face, "Father's tiger power is not diminished back then, but the child can't be defeated!" ”
"That's it, I'll practice here today, and a guest is coming." Wang Yu threw the stick in his hand to the pawn next to him, stretched out his hand and pointed at Chu Tianya, "Yao, that young man is Chu Tianya!" ”
Chu Tianya heard him call himself, so he stepped forward. The embroidery young man turned his head to look, and greeted him with a smile, and said, "You are the one that my father and Second Brother Ma mentioned - the Chu Tianya Chu brother with extraordinary insight and wisdom?" I didn't think you were so young, I thought you would be the same age as me if you didn't say anything! ”
Chu Tianya clenched his fists and bowed, "It's just me." Could it be that Your Excellency is the eldest son of the capital system, Wang Xianxian? ”
"That's right, I'm Wang Xun." The embroidered young man smiled heartily, and his laughter and posture had the charm of Wang Yu, and he said, "Brother Chu, since you are the brother of Second Brother Ma, you are also the brother of my Wang Xun." In the future, you don't have to be so angry, just call me Brother Wang! ”
"Okay, Brother Wang!" Chu Tianya was not pretentious, and shouted happily. He glanced Wang Xun up and down, and then saw that the tattoo on his chest was a lifelike tiger descending from the mountain, with fangs and claws and angry eyes, so he praised, "Brother Wang is so beautiful and embroidered!" ”
"Hugh will praise him." Wang Yu was holding a teapot on the side and drinking to his mouth, and then said, "He is going to play these tricks with all his heart, how can he have the heart to practice martial arts?" After 28 years of practicing a set of marksmanship, it is still such a poor fire, and it is not a shame! ”
Wang Yu suddenly smiled bitterly, turned his head and honestly hugged his fist at Wang Yu and said, "My father taught me a lesson, and the child is extremely ashamed. From now on, the child will practice martial arts every day! ”
When Wang Xun turned around, Chu Tianya saw that his back was tattooed with nine fiery climbing vine roses. Chu Tianya couldn't help but be happy, and secretly said Could it be that Wang Xun also knows the famous British sentence "I have a tiger in my heart, smell the rose"?
"Chu Tianya, come here." Wang Yu wiped his sweat and changed his clothes under the service of the pawn, and at the same time called to Chu Tianya.
Chu Tianya stepped forward, "What do you command?" ”
Wang Yu didn't say anything after getting dressed, and suddenly stretched out a big hand to hold Chu Tianya, and then pinched it his shoulders, arms, waist, and even arms.
Chu Tianya was pinched very painfully, and his heart was also embarrassed, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and when he was about to ask, Wang Yu said: "The body is quite strong, the muscles and bones are still good, while you are young, it is a material for martial arts training - Chu Tianya, you should be a martial artist, right?" ”
Chu Tianya smiled ashamedly, "Not really." ”
"Not really, just a little?" Wang Yu looked at Chu Tianya with a little ill will and smiled, "Have you practiced boxing and kicking, or have you learned guns and sticks?" ”
"Only two extremely shoddy fists and kicks......," Chu Tianya said.
"That's a good idea." Wang Yu crossed his waist with one hand and waved vigorously with the other, "Xun'er, you will have a few moves with Chu Tianya!" ”
Chu Tianya couldn't help but be stunned, "Wang Dutong, the last general won't know how to shoot a stick......"
"No, it wouldn't." Wang Yu said seriously, "If you have practiced the gun and stick routine, the old man will not be interested!" ”
