Chapter 5 Cover the crotch with two scoops
In a spacious main hall, there are a few pots of Wen Song, which look extremely elegant, and next to the red sandalwood table, as soon as the middle-aged man in a gray shirt sits down, his face is sinking, "Brother Zhao, I hurt you." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Father Zhao was stunned, and the celadon cup in his hand almost slipped off, "Brother Fu, what are you talking about?" It's my Zhao family who has caused you a lot of trouble. ”
Fu Sima hurriedly shook his head, closed the door, and only the four of them were left in the room, and then spoke, "I just agreed to your matter, and in the afternoon, I heard two family members mention that they are going to kill two assassins today, and these two assassins are extremely good at escaping. I wanted to go to your side to inform you, but only my sister-in-law was left at home......"
Father Zhao's expression was also a little dignified, "What is the origin of the assassin?" ”
"I heard that he killed important people in the four cities one after another, and he was arrested several times, but he was always unscathed, without exception, but somehow, one died this time." Fu Sima hurriedly shook his head, "It's a shame that Feng Tuiguan knew the reason but still let Zhao Pu go on the execution stage, which shows that he planned to let Zhao Pu be this substitute ghost early in the morning." ”
Father Zhao frowned, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, shook his head and sighed, "I always asked Pu'er to go out to practice, but I didn't expect that my son would be ruined in my own hands." I'm ......."
Although Father Zhao's face was as usual, he did not have tears in his eyes, but his voice was a little choked.
"This Feng Tuiguan has never been a faction with me, and he must have come at me. Brother Zhao, don't worry, I will arrest that female assassin in the past ten days. If it really doesn't work, I have to keep your son even if I don't want this black gauze hat!! ”
"Fu Yanduan, you ......" Father Zhao's palms trembled with excitement.
Fu Sima shook his head slightly, "I have long been envious of Brother Zhao's leisure, he is busy all day, if he can really resign, it will be good." ”
Father Zhao didn't speak again, sighed, and left the Fu family with Zhao Pu and Zhu Wei.
As soon as I went out, a crying woman came to me, "You are an old immortal, you have to let my son be a butcher, now it's okay, my son's life will be miserable by you." ”
A touch of vicissitudes appeared on his face, and Father Zhao gently closed his eyes and shook his head, "Xianshu, it's my fault." ”
Lin lay in Daddy Zhao's arms for a while, but he still didn't ease up at all, and asked, "What can I do?" ”
"Let's get out of here first, let's go home." Father Zhao patted Lin's shoulder as if coaxing a child.
……
The ancestral hall of the pu mat fell asleep for a night, and at dawn the next day, Zhao Pu pushed the door and came to the courtyard.
"Eldest Prince, are you alright?" As soon as he saw Zhao Pu, Zhu Wei hurriedly put down the work in his hand and followed.
"I'll go out for a walk." Zhao Pu threw down a sentence and turned around to leave.
Zhu Wei hurriedly followed out of the hut, "Eldest son, I'll go with you." ”
"Not necessarily."
"Then you might as well bring some money." Zhu Wei said and took out a money bag from his body and handed it to Zhao Pu's hand, "By the way, there is also this dagger, the world is chaotic outside, and the son himself is careful." ”
Zhao Pu nodded and accepted Zhu Wei's kindness. Looking down at the exquisitely carved dagger, I thought that it was also very cherished by this Zhu Wei.
……
Came to the street alone, Zhao Pu sat by the wall, bored and looked at the traffic in front of him.
Rubbing his empty stomach, he casually came to a roadside stall, "Boss, what are you selling?" ”
"Dumplings, ten cents a bowl. Childe, do you want it? ”
Zhao Pu was stunned, "Guduo? Are you a flower seller? ”
"Mentally unwell?" The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and looked at Zhao Pu with some discrimination.
Thinking that there was still some difference between this and modern times, Zhao Pu didn't care about it, took out ten big coins and said, "Bring me a bowl." ”
The shopkeeper smiled and collected the money, Zhao Pu found a remote place to sit down, and the shopkeeper also brought a big bowl over, "Please." ”
Zhao Pu looked down and saw that this thing was a wonton, "Hehe, I can't pretend to be an ancestor here, and I become a grandson." You can also eat wontons from his ancestors! ”
Stuffing one into his mouth while it was hot, Zhao Pu's eyes suddenly widened, not to mention, this thing is really better than what is made in modern times.
Hungry, Zhao Pu ate two bowls in a daze, then rubbed his stomach, burped, drank some tea casually, and was just about to leave, a team of officers and soldiers came over, stood in front of a table, held a portrait and asked, "You guys, do you see this woman?" ”
Zhao Pu was stunned for a moment, and then sat back in the corner, presumably this is also Fu Sima's person, running around for himself here.
A few idlers began to laugh and talk, "It's also funny, the son-in-law of the Zhao family is really short-lived, and he encountered such an unfortunate thing, alas, pitiful." ”
"Poor people must have something to hate, that boy is so old, he doesn't dare to kill, it's really a wretch, my son, fifteen this year, stabbed a Khitan girl to death a few days ago, haha."
Zhao Pu frowned when he heard this, unwilling to listen to such cruel things again, but when he turned his head, he found that two men in ordinary linen robes were about to turn around and leave.
A pair of eyes began to pay some attention.
"Who? Hold it!! Several soldiers also noticed the unusual movement and hurriedly chased after them.
A smile inevitably appeared in the corner of his eyes, and Zhao Pu felt a great sense of relief when he watched more than a dozen soldiers surround the two people with mysterious whereabouts.
"I don't have to die?" The smile on the corner of his mouth was just halfway to grinning, and Zhao Pu's face suddenly sank.
I saw that although the two people changed into Han hair buns, the skin was dark and rough, and their appearance was also extraordinarily fierce, the two looked at each other and then nodded their heads, and a pair of scimitars took off their hands, this technique was sharp, but it was a little rusty.
"Run, it's a Khitan!!"
For a while, the diners on the dumpling stall immediately scattered and fled, and even the little boss abandoned the stall and turned around and fled for his life.
Zhao Pu was a little panicked, and hurriedly hid next to the haystack on the side with the flow of people, watching the battle situation from a distance.
In the end, the Khitans are nomadic people, and their strength and fierce strength are much heavier than ordinary people.
A pair of scimitars almost made it impossible for the dozen or so soldiers around them to get close, but after all, it was still in the territory of Changzhou City, and the two Khitans were defeated and defeated.
"We're not bad people." The Han Chinese of these two people are particularly proficient.
"The Khitan people who can come to Changzhou City are either spies or come to fight the grass valley, you are obviously Khitans, and you speak pure Han Chinese, it seems that you have been on the road for a long time." The leader of one of the soldiers shouted loudly.
One of the Khitans slowly put the scimitar on the ground, spread his palms to the soldiers, and slowly signaled, "My brother and I have settled in Yanzhou, we are just hawkers, and the Khitans are also human beings, and they also need to live, and we need food." ”
"You Khitans will only fight grass valleys, if you really have no intention of harming people, how can you carry a scimitar with you!!"
"For self-preservation!" Another slightly younger Khitan said angrily, "The Han people on the dumpling stall just now are proud that their son killed our little Khitan girl, if we don't carry a scimitar, our brother will not be able to live." ”
"Take it first." The leading soldier hooked his hand slightly, and a group of soldiers was about to surround him.
"Wait." A figure flashed out from the haystack on the side, and Zhao Pu said slowly, "Brother soldier, what they said is not unreasonable, let me ask." ”
Born in the peaceful and prosperous era of the 21st century, Zhao Pu already had compassion for the Khitan girls in the mouth just now, if these two Khitans went to prison, eighty percent of them would be directly hacked to death to vent their anger because they were Khitans, and they didn't know if they could live, and they might be able to accumulate virtue for themselves if they did good deeds.
The soldiers looked sideways, and when they turned their heads, they only felt that the young man looked a little familiar, "Are you...... The eldest son of the Zhao family? ”
Zhao Pu nodded and laughed at himself, "A person is about to die, and his words are also good." ”
A few soldiers on the side remembered Zhao Pu's performance on the guillotine yesterday, and couldn't help but turn pale like dirt, and said coldly to Zhao Pu, "This matter is not for the eldest prince to interfere in, and the eldest prince should concentrate on his own affairs." ”
"You are all Fu Sima's soldiers, and you are all sent out to run for me, isn't it your job to help me find someone? You have to worry about my business, and as for some of the side, let me try. ”
After walking around the two Khitans a few times, Zhao Pulang said, "The nomads draw bows and shoot arrows all the year round, and there must be calluses on the palms of their hands. ”
Zhao Pu said, ignoring the obstruction of those people, he stepped forward directly, picked up the scimitar on the ground, and said with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, "But...... You say you're a peddler, huh, open the package! ”
"Be careful, eldest prince." When the leader of the soldiers saw Zhao Pu running rampant like this, he couldn't help but step forward to stop him.
It seems that because of the toss yesterday, I am much more courageous than before.
Zhao Pu waved his palm, "It's okay." ”
The two Khitans didn't speak, and directly handed over the package that fell on the dumpling stall.
A few soldiers on the side opened them one after another and said, "It's all sheepskin flasks." ”
"Look at this thing, it has a flat body and a single hole, and the stitches are fine, and the daughter-in-law who wants to come to your two family is also extremely hardworking." Zhao Pu picked one up and weighed it in his hand, and raised the scimitar in his hand with a chuckle, "Check the package well to see if there are any problems, those sheepskin pots are opened one by one." In addition, help me prepare two scoops, two Khitan brothers, and take off my clothes. ”
"This ......," the two Khitans pouted a little indignantly, "Okay." ”
The dark faces of the two stripped Khitans looked a little embarrassed, and the tattoos on their chests were particularly fine, and the two of them used a small water scoop to protect the key positions on their bodies, and their faces were flushed like the eldest girl who had seen her in-laws for the first time.
"You Han people all say that you can't be humiliated if you can kill, have you finished checking this?" One of the Khitans asked at Zhao Pu.
Zhao Pu played with the scimitar in his hand, laughing without saying a word.
"Master Zhao, there is no problem in this package and clothes." Several soldiers said in unison.
The leading soldier sighed to the group of soldiers and said, "Forget it, it's important to help Zhao Dagongzi capture the assassin, let's go." ”
A group of soldiers turned their backs and left, and the two Khitans hurriedly looked at Zhao Pu, "Thank you Zhao Gongzi for rescuing me, and please leave my name so that I can repay my kindness in the future." ”
"There is no need to repay the favor, and the grace will be revenge." Zhao Pu's eyes suddenly showed a fierce anger, and he raised his hand with a smile, "Hand over the note between your fingers, and I'll let you go." ”
"What...... What note? Although the two of them pleaded, their palms shrank back.
"Don't pretend, this little trick you have to hide the note now is all left over from my brother's high school years. Now the soldiers have not gone far, and they can turn back at any time. If you want to kill me, you'd better not wait for me to call out, otherwise the people of the whole city will be waiting to kill you to vent their anger. ”
The two Khitans seemed to hesitate, so they handed over the note in their hands suspiciously.
"Don't be stunned, there's still your left hand."
Handing over the note in his hand, the Khitan said, "I didn't expect that there would be such a bold and knowledgeable Han baby." If you know it, why do you want to help us? ”
"Is it okay to be idle?" Zhao Pu's eyebrows raised slightly, and he smiled, "Since you can come and go freely in this place, I don't know...... Have you ever heard of Zhao Kuangyin? ”
"Zhao Kuangyin?" The two of them shook their heads, "I really haven't heard of ......."
Also, at this time, Zhao Kuangyin was only in his teens, and he grew up in Kaifeng, the capital of the current dynasty, even if he traveled, he would not choose such a sinister place. Zhao Pu waved his hand and said, "Let's go, don't let me meet you next time." “
……
Casually found a corner, Zhao Pu slowly sat down, after a long time, the assassin did not find it, and the left and right were also idle, piecing together the yellowed notes in his hand, like a small map.
Although the characters are all traditional on it, Zhao Pu is more or less recognizable. Several fonts are staggered, presumably not from the hand of one person, but why this Khitan note is written by Chinese characters, this Zhao Pu is unknown.
"This is a map of Changzhou City." Zhao Pu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt that the two Khitans were really ill-intentioned.
After piecing together another piece of paper, Zhao Pudeng's heart trembled, and there were three big characters written on this note, "Fu Yanduan!" ”
Zhao Pu's face turned pale at once, Fu Yanduan, as a friend of Zhao's father, is really a friend of life and death, and it is really interesting to be able to help himself with this part.
However, now that he has let go of the two Khitans who investigated Fu Sima, Zhao Pu's face is also blue and purple.
Hurriedly continued to read, however, after only two glances, Zhao Pu began to be suspicious, it stands to reason that if this Khitan person has the intention to assassinate Fu Sima, he should investigate the layout of Fu Sima's house, but what is written on this note is a trivial matter.
But there is a piece of writing that is very fine and light, Zhao Pu really sees it in his eyes, "I usually use a 0.38mm nib to go to school, what is this small character?" ”
I saw that it was written, "Fu Yanduan, the illegitimate son of Fu Cunxian, the Taibao of the Later Tang Dynasty." ”
Who is this Fu Cunxian, Zhao Pu has heard the play before, in the Later Tang Dynasty, their old Fu family had power, and this Fu Cunzhen was the brother of the Emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty. However, now it is the grandson of Shi Jingjiao of the Later Jin Dynasty, and I am afraid that it will become the most downset time for their Fu family, no wonder Father Zhao would rather sacrifice himself than let Fu Sima take off his black gauze hat.
The influence of the Fu family in the post-Tang Dynasty was so great, Shi Jingjiao's grandson was not afraid of them, who was he afraid of?
Since Fu Yanduan Sima is the son of Fu Cunxian, although he is unknown, the future power of this Fu family is really glorious.
Zhao Pu smiled slightly, it seems that although this Khitan person has no intention of killing Fu Sima, he has the heart to investigate Fu Sima, the so-called fear of thieves is afraid of thieves, probably that's it, right?
For the sake of prudence, Zhao Pu read through the note three times before handling it carefully.
After reading the map of Changzhou City, Zhao Pu knew that there were two gates in this city, one side was the north gate that was closed all the year round, and most of the activities there were Khitans, so naturally they would not be open.
On the other side is the South City Gate, which is the main hub for the circulation of people.
In this way, the current Zhao Pu, in order to survive, can only go to the south gate to wait for the rabbit.
