Yang Ping'an wanted to kill Yang Xiong very much, just because Dong'er has no news now. Although Dong'er should be immortal, he has always been unwilling to accept this fact. In his heart, as long as Dong'er's body is not seen, Dong'er will not die!

But Yang Xiong must be killed.

Today, when he learned that King Ning had rebelled, he finally understood why Yang Xiong didn't come to him after he killed Feng Xiaobao and more than 30 of Yanshihou's subordinates. But King Ning rebelled, Yang Xiong must have known about it, and he must have escaped from Yanshi early, which made him lose a good chance for revenge.

He wanted to know if the imperial court would send troops to attack the rebels, and if so, he could follow behind the army and find an opportunity to slash Yang Xiong. But to his disappointment, the imperial court only sent troops to guard all parts of Jiangbei and let the rebels pacify Jiangnan.

"Why?"

The Yang family is powerful, and many clansmen are officials in the court, so Yang Zhi knows a lot of news, and even Yang Guozhong knows a lot.

King Ning rebelled, and soon after capturing Jinling, the foundation was not stable, and many prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River were still loyal to the imperial court. As long as the imperial army moves south, the cooperation of the defenders from all over the country is the best opportunity to exterminate the rebels.

But for example, today it is not only King Ning who is making rebellion in the south, but there are rebellions in Shandong, Northeast, grassland, Western Regions and other places, although the momentum is difficult to compare with King Ning in the south, it cannot be ignored. It can be said that the entire northern periphery of Yang and Tang Dynasty was caught in the flames of war, and urgent documents from all over the country entered Beijing like snowflakes.

King Ning's rebellion has been planned for a long time, and now that his wings have been completed, even if he sends troops to exterminate it at this moment, it will be difficult to achieve complete success in the short term, but it will create opportunities for rebellion in various places on the northern periphery.

Therefore, after the discussion of the monarchs and ministers in the court, it was decided to prevent King Ning from waving his army to the north, and the imperial army would first exterminate the rebellions in the north one by one, and then concentrate on pacifying the king of Ning in the south.

After listening to Yang Guozhong's explanation, Yang Ping'an was silent. There was nothing wrong with the imperial court's response, but in this way, it gave King Ning the opportunity to pacify the south. After the imperial court put down the rebellion in the north, the south may have fallen into the hands of King Ning. How will he slash Yang Xiong when the time comes?

"Big brother, did King Ning really send someone to woo you?" Yang Guozhong's visit to Yang Ping'an this time was also approved by the patriarch Yang Zhi. Now that King Ning is rebelling, there is no danger for Yang Ping'an to offend King Ning's father and son, unless King Ning seizes the world in the future.

Therefore, Yang Zhi allowed Yang Guozhong to come to Yang Ping'an, and at the same time ordered him to inquire about the tone, and said that in the Yang family restaurant, what Yang Ping'an said was true or false, and whether King Ning really won him over.

"True or not, is it still important now?" Yang Xiong fled back to Jiangnan, which made Yang Ping'an feel quite lost. He smiled bitterly and turned to face Dong'er's empty grave, feeling sad in his heart.

"Big brother, you killed that Feng Xiaobao, and you really killed thirty knives? You alone killed thirty of them? Although Yang Guozhong has no respect for Yang Zhi, he is still more concerned about what Yang Zhi commands, such as inquiring about Yang Ping'an, the key is that he is also very curious.

A few months ago, Yang Ping'an was still the same as him, and called Yanshi the Four Tigers, even inferior to him, he was the head of the Four Tigers. But in just a few months, Yang Ping'an first became able to fight; then pounded out the tofu and grabbed a lot of money; also wrote "H version of the Romance of the Gods", which made him in the limelight; It is even more into the eyes of King Ning's law, and he speaks to win over.

Where did he Yang Ping'an get his ability to change dramatically?

Yang Guozhong also has a self-motivated heart, if Yang Ping'an really has the potential of a big tree, he is willing to make rattan, but he wants to wrap it tighter.

After Dong'er threw himself into the river, Yang Ping'an fell into madness, and he didn't know everything around him, if it weren't for Lao Sutou's oath that the thirty knives would all be killed by him, he wouldn't have dared to believe it, because he only remembered that he had tortured and killed Feng Xiaobao.

"Are the thirty swordsmen very powerful?"

Individual swordsmen are not powerful, but when they are combined, they can exert the effect that one plus one is greater than two. These swordsmen are all guards in King Ning's mansion, well-disciplined and well-trained, and after the training and guidance of famous generals in the army, they are loyal to King Ning and are not afraid of death.

As the son of King Ning, Yang Xiong was named Yanshi Hou Changju Yanshi, and King Ning considered his safety and sent a hundred sword guards to accompany him to protect him.

After the news of King Ning's rebellion returned to Tokyo, the new emperor issued a decree ordering Yang Xiong to be captured back to Luoyang.

The Yanshi County Commander personally led the county government officials and nearly 100 soldiers defending the city to rush to the Yanshi Marquis's Mansion, where they encountered desperate resistance from the thirty sword guards. Although the number of people was more than three times that of the other party, when there was a fierce battle in the square in front of the Hou Mansion for a long time, he was stunned and could not rush into the mansion.

Later, when Dou Er heard the news, he brought people to rush over, cooperated with the county order to capture and kill all the guards who resisted, and rushed into the mansion, only to find that Yang Xiong had long since disappeared.

The thirty sword guards were all killed in battle, just to buy time for Yang Xiong to escape, and when Dou Er found out about this, he could no longer find out Yang Xiong's whereabouts.

This incident is very sensational, and the oily trio will not miss it. That is, Yang Ping'an has been staying in the Yellow River Laodu, so he has never heard of it.

"Those swordsmen are so powerful?" Yang Ping'an frowned as he listened, his eyes flickering.

As one of the four tigers of Yanshi, Deng Wei, who used to be the most capable of fighting, looked at Yang Ping'an with admiration: "Big brother, when did you become so capable of fighting, I'm afraid that even Dou Ye is not your opponent, right?" Big brother, can you teach me your kung fu? ”

Deng Wei's words, Yang Ping'an didn't hear it at all, he was thinking about a question - the thirty sword guards of the Yellow River Laodu, were they really killed by me? If not, who would it be?

This question has to be figured out!

It was nearly dusk, and Yang returned to the city safely. Accompanied by the oil powder trio, he went to the Yanshi Hou Mansion. The huge Hou Mansion is now empty, and the vermilion lacquer door is pasted with seals, and the whole mansion looks scattered and gloomy.

Sure that Yang Xiong had indeed escaped from Yanshi a long time ago, Yang Ping'an and the oil powder trio went to Yang's restaurant, carried some wine and meat, and agreed on a time to pick up the manuscript tomorrow, and then returned to their homes.

Dong'er is not there, Yang Ping'an is sad, the dove occupies the magpie's nest, and now the Yang family has been occupied by the Su family.

Pushing the door in, I saw that Lao Su Tou was busy cleaning up, while Su Min was playing with Su Jia, as if he was in his own home.

Seeing him come back, Lao Sutou hurriedly stopped what he was doing and drove his children back to the room, but he had wine and meat in his hand and said, "Son, you are back!" For the rough work of selling wine and buying meat, you can explain to the old man, why bother with you? ”

"It's okay, thanks to your father and daughter taking care of me these days, let's have a good drink tonight."

Old Su Tou looked at him in surprise, and said with a smile: "Today, the son seems to be in a good mood, could it be that he encountered something good before he came back?" ”

"Where's the good thing. It's just that I figured it out, the dead are gone, and the living are greater, not to mention that Dong'er may not be dead, so why should I be so sad? If I miss out on illness and Dong'er happens to come back, wouldn't that worry her? ”

"It's great that Childe can think like that. The old man went to cook, and tonight the old man gave up his life to accompany his son to get drunk. ”

Lao Sutou's craftsmanship is good, for a man in his forties, he can do housework and cook, which is the best in ancient times when men were inferior to women.

Yang Ping'an once asked him, and his answer was that his wife died of illness ten years ago, leaving behind a pair of children. In the past ten years, he has been a father and a mother, raising his children with hard work, not to mention doing housework and cooking, even needlework.

In a word, it was all forced.

The night is warm, the lonely moon hangs high, the breeze is slow, and the insects are chirping.

On the stone table in the courtyard, Yang Ping'an and Lao Sutou sat opposite each other, bathing in the moonlight and drinking freely. The former has been telling about his longing for Dong'er, and the latter has been sitting there honestly listening, not saying a word, just having a drink with Yang Ping'an from time to time, and then pouring the wine full.

Su Min and Su Jia had been sent back to the house and rested early, leaving only the sound of Yang Ping'an's murmuring and the occasional collision of wine glasses in the courtyard.

"Old Sutou, don't you know, as soon as Dong'er left, I felt empty in my heart, as if someone had hollowed out my heart...... Hiccup, come on, you and I have another drink! ”

Yang Ping'an borrowed wine to kill his sorrows, as if he was already drunk, seeing Lao Su Tou drink the wine, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, his hands shook, and most of the wine in the cup spilled his clothes, and then drank the shallow wine at the bottom of the cup, making a drink and exhaustion.

Except for the first few cups, he really drank the whole cup, and the rest was the same, just drinking the bottom of the cup, and most of the drunkenness at the moment was pretended.

Lao Sutou is very honest, he does not suspect cheating, he drinks it all every time, and gradually shows a confused look in his eyes.

The two drank a few more glasses, the wine jar on the table gradually emptied, Yang Ping'an's body was unstable, and he choked up: "In my life, it is a reward from God to be able to meet Dong'er, but God is ruthless, and in just a few days, Dong'er was taken away from me!" Hehe, old Su Tou, if I can meet you, it can be regarded as God's care, if it weren't for you, I would be afraid of losing my life. ”

"Childe praises falsely, if it weren't for Childe's bravery, the old man would have died in the hands of those wicked people!"

"Huh? I don't remember clearly, anyway, when you are not afraid of life and death, go with me, so affectionate and righteous, you should drink a cup. Come on, let's do it! ”

After another glass of wine, Yang Ping'an said again: "Those swordsmen are strong in martial arts, have you ever been injured when you fought with them?" ”

"Thanks to the son, when they all ran to you, the old man didn't suffer much damage."

Yang Ping'an was repeatedly tempted, but he was carefully dealt with by Lao Sutou. In the end, he made a drunken appearance and said vaguely: "Old, old Sutou, in fact, I know, you, you, you are a big master, those, those people, in fact, were all killed by you, right?" ”

"Childe is too uplifting a little old man. If the old man really has that ability, how can he be ruined by two cuts in the face? Childe is drunk, let's stop after drinking this glass, right? ”

As he spoke, the drunken old Su Tou poured a glass of wine for Yang Ping'an again, but the little finger of his right hand flicked slightly when he poured the wine.

The old technique was repeated, Yang Ping'an swayed most of it again, drank all the wine at the bottom of the cup, and then continued to speak tentatively, and suddenly felt that his head became heavier as if he was drinking, and finally looked at Lao Su's head vaguely, and planted his head on the stone table.

At the same time, Lao Sutou's eyes flashed, and there was no drunkenness on his face, and he chuckled: "Hehe, if you want to test me, you are still too tender." ”

Speaking of this, he turned his head and shouted at the West Chamber: "Come out, the opportunity is tonight!" ”
