Chapter 102: The Wolf Smoke Rises (3/5) Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass!
Time passes silently.
In the blink of an eye, it has entered September, although it is only late autumn in terms of season, but the temperature in Changping is as cold as a day.
Here, the four seasons are distinct, far from being a vague concept that will last a thousand years.
The south of the Yellow River is still high and crisp in autumn, but in Youzhou, it is already winter.
Yang Shouwen got up early in the morning, facing the morning sun and spitting out the purple qi of the golden toad, and after nine turns of work, he slowly finished his work.
The golden toad guidance technique, created by imitating the golden toad swallowing the essence of the sun and the moon, is said to be the secret of the qi refiners on the Wudang Mountain.
Yang Shouwen has been practicing since he was a child, and after more than ten years, he has practiced this set of exercises to the ground.
Although it can't be said that the cold and heat are invasive, he can feel it himself, his qi and blood are extraordinarily strong, even if the temperature is low, he will not feel too cold. After returning to the room to wash, I drank a bowl of hot porridge and ate a pound of meatloaf, and then I was satisfied.
"Ah Lang, Song Saburo is asking to see you outside."
The afternoon sun was quite warm, and after several days of bleak wind and cold rain, it felt very comfortable to shine on my body.
After eating his stomach, Yang Shouwen sat under the porch, bathed in the warm sunshine.
The young lady and the young slave frolicked in the courtyard, and the four puppies ran around them, looking very happy. Bodhi lay on Yang Shouwen's side, motionless, allowing Yang Shouwen to put one hand on its body gently, and from time to time he would make one or two hums to express his comfort. The eyes, which always had a little sense of calmness, were also gently closed.
This day is also happy.
Yang was drying the quilt there, while Yang Chenglie was holding the manuscript of Journey to the West written by Yang Shouwen. Read it with relish.
Song sat next to Yang Seungyeol. While doing needlework. While listening to Yang Chenglie read quietly, he had a quiet smile on his face. Except for Yang Rui and Yang Jasmine, who went to Xingyang, almost all the children of the Yang family gathered in this small courtyard.
But at this moment, there were people who spoiled the scenery.
The old bearded man walked to Yang Chenglie's side and whispered.
Song Saburo asks to see?
When Song heard this, he immediately looked at Yang Chenglie.
Song Saburo was released the day before yesterday!
This is probably also a kind of kindness released by Lu Yongcheng.
He has already got what he wants, so there is no need to target Yang Chenglie again.
Not only that, although Lu Yongcheng controlled Zhanban Sooli and Minzhuang Wuhou. But he didn't touch the crew again.
First, the fishing squad of only twenty or thirty people is not of much use to Lu Yongcheng.
Second? He really didn't meddle in the affairs of the fishing class. Although Yang Chenglie did not come out, Guan Hu was impervious to the wind and rain of the fishing class. Although Lu Yongcheng could remove Guan Hu, he could not find a suitable replacement for a while.
Moreover, there is no need for him to provoke Yang Chenglie because of this.
As compensation, he released Song Saburo.
Yang Shouwen has been able to determine that the person who framed Song Sanlang is Lu Yongcheng. Of course, Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong, and Lu Yongcheng was originally aimed at Yang Chenglie. Now Yang Chengyeol is no longer in danger. There is no need for him to embarrass Song Saburo anymore. Letting go of Song Sanlang is also tantamount to expressing to Yang Chenglie: Our grievances. It's all been resolved.
It's just that Yang Shouwen didn't expect that Song Sanlang came out and came to visit.
Yang Chenglie put down the manuscript in his hand and said to the Song family: "San Lang is afraid that he is coming to you, you can go and entertain him." ”
"Slave knows."
Song got up and walked out, while Yang Chenglie looked at Yang Shouwen with a smile.
"See what I'm doing?"
"Your aunt is going to let Song Sanlang be in charge of the sales of Qingping Tune, and he came to the door today, probably for this matter."
"Oh!"
"Don't you have an opinion?"
Yang Shouwen sneered, "Does my father mean that I want to go out and get rid of Song Sanlang?" ”
This time, it was Yang Chengyeol's turn to be speechless.
originally wanted to make fun of it, but he didn't expect Yang Shouwen to accept his tricks at all. However, after all, Yang Chenglie is a person who has been up and down in the officialdom for many years, and his cheek has long been practiced to the tenth level of King Kong. With a smile at the moment, he sat up and said with a smile: "Okay, I underestimated you!" Do you know that your Qingping tone is extremely favored by Song Sanlang. ”
"So what?"
"How? That's a lot of money. ”
"If I don't have any money, will you not give it to me?"
"This ......"
Yang Chenglie was a little uncomfortable, pointed at Yang Shouwen and said angrily: "You are not a filial son." ”
He pointed at Yang Shouwen, and Bodhi immediately got up and barked at him, making Yang Chenglie feel his old face hot.
"Okay, if my father has something to say, why bother pretending."
Yang Shouwen sat up and looked at Yang Chenglie lazily, "I know what my father meant, although businessmen have huge profits, they are not humane after all. I promised A-Niang that she would be in charge of Qingping and sales, and I wouldn't care how she operated.
Anyway, my pocket money is indispensable, so why do you bother to explain it to me, father? Am I that ignorant? ”
In the Tang Dynasty, no matter how profitable the merchants were, they could not be put on the table.
Yang Shouwen didn't look down on businessmen, but he knew that if he was branded as a businessman, there would be a lot of trouble. For a society, merchants are an indispensable part of promoting social development and material circulation. But when the whole society is looking down on businessmen, but they want to turn it around on their own? That's just stupid.
Yang Shouwen doesn't think he has that ability......
As for Yang Chenglie's pretense, he also understood.
It's nothing more than the fear that he will have bad thoughts, and he may even have more conflicts with the Song family when the time comes.
Home and everything is prosperous, Yang Chenglie thinks so, but there is no mistake.
Yang Shouwen stretched his waist, and felt that his spirit seemed to be lifted a lot.
"Although Song Saburo is a bit stupid, his character is not bad.
He is not like A-Niang's other two brothers, and he has been making trouble for A-Niang all these years. Although he was framed before, he was also arrested because he was not cautious enough. After my father handed over the seal, it seemed that he was the only one who came to visit him for so long. Whether it was A-Niang's summoning or his initiative, after all, he was not as fearful as others.
From this point of view, Song Saburo can also be regarded as a lover. ”
Yang Chenglie was quite impressed, and nodded lightly in agreement.
Since Yang Shouwen said such words, there is no need for him to explain again, otherwise he will seem stingy.
"Father, I'm going to practice calligraphy, there's nothing to do, don't call me."
After speaking, Yang Shouwen walked towards the room.
Looking at his back, Yang Chenglie smiled with relief, and then leaned against the pillar and picked up the manuscript of "Journey to the West" to read.
It's just that he didn't wait long to read it, and he heard a rush of footsteps.
The footsteps were very hurried, and then I saw Guan Hu walking in from the moon gate. He looked a little flustered, and when he saw Yang Chenglie, he hurriedly walked a few steps, "County Lieutenant, something is wrong...... At midnight this morning, the Jingnan Army launched a sneak attack on Juyong Pass. ”
Yang Chenglie was stunned when he heard this, and sat up straight.
"Accurate message?"
"Juyong has lit up the wolf smoke, and I have also sent someone to investigate, and this matter has been confirmed."
Yang Chenglie heard this, and immediately gasped.
Since the surrender of the Jingnan army to the Turks on August 10, although it has moved south several times, it has never launched an offensive.
Yang Chenglie even thought that the Jing Yan Army would not make any more moves. Unexpectedly, just when the Turkic war was extremely smooth, the Jingyan army would suddenly attack. Could it be that the Turks plan to use both prongs to capture Youzhou? (To be continued......)
