Chapter 93, saber rattling
On the way back, Lu Zhan, Dian Wei, and He Hai went to a tavern to pack some wine and food - "packing" was not popular in this era, but Lu Zhan spent money to buy all the dishes, chopsticks, bamboo baskets and other things, and the shopkeeper naturally had nothing to say.
Back at He Qian's house, the fat aunt Zhu who lived opposite her had already prepared a meal and waited for them to come back and eat together.
Lu Zhan took out all the delicacies packed back and put them on the table, plus the Zhu family's cooking, a total of thirteen bowls, chicken, duck, fish, etc., everything is complete.
When he ate, he gave out a lot of gold and silver -- and he shared the hardships and blessings, and this was his surname. took the ingot of gold to He Qian's mother, where would this simple and hard-working woman ask for it? A strong excuse.
Seeing her like this, Lu Zhan really wanted to say, "Mother-in-law, you just take it, this is the future son-in-law honoring you", but he didn't say it, but handed the gold directly to He Qian.
He Qian took it with a smile, but was counted down by her mother.
Lu Zhan took the ingot of gold to the Zhu family again, and said with a smile: "Auntie, thank you for your hospitality this time, be careful, please accept it." ”
The Zhu family is different from his mother, just when she saw Lu Zhan holding Huang Cancan's gold and giving it to her "sister-in-law", she thought to herself: I don't know if I have my share? At this time, she was overjoyed, took it unceremoniously, and said with a smile on her face: "The virtuous nephew is too outside, isn't it just a meal?" Even if you eat at your aunt's house for ten days and a half months, your aunt won't ask you for money. ”
"That's a good thing to say." Lu Zhan said in his heart, and then he gave each of the others a silver ingot......
At this moment, Zhu's family is really more lively than the New Year. He Hai took the silver, and thought about it in his heart: in the future, he will simply follow his brother-in-law to mix up, and the salary will not be too much, just two taels a day.
……
The brocade-shirted boy suffered a great loss, and could not swallow this evil breath, and as soon as he returned, he found the uncle of one of his uncles - this man was a tun commander in the Nanchengmen camp, fifty miles away, thin and tall, with thin eyebrows and peay eyes, and loved money like life.
As soon as he heard that the boy in the brocade shirt had promised great benefits - after the matter was completed, he gave him five hundred taels of silver, but he didn't say a word, and immediately brought more than a dozen of his subordinates to "help the fist".
The brocade boy didn't know Lu Zhan and Dian Wei, but he knew He Hai, so a group of people went to He Hai's house "majesticly".
……
On the other side, portraits of Lu Zhan were quickly pasted all over the traffic arteries in Luoyang City--the emperor sometimes did things, and the efficiency was quite fast. There are some words written on it: If anyone finds this person, notify the government and there will be a reward.
This sentence is a bit ambiguous: is this person a bad person or a good person? It depends on the understanding of each individual.
The butcher of the sheep was strolling down the street when he stumbled upon a bounty notice on the wall of a street intersection, and the portrait of the person on the notice caught his attention.
"I received the court's heavy reward this time." He screamed in his heart, looked at the others, and no one seemed to know the "person who was rewarded", and he immediately withdrew and ran to the nearby official office. On the way, he came across a patrol of city guards, and he couldn't wait, so he told them the news. One of the strong men who looked like the captain also wanted to receive the reward, and immediately asked him to lead the way.
The butcher took them to He Hai's house - he thought to himself: He Hai knew the "wanted criminal", and if he found He Hai, he would be able to find the wanted criminal - he hated Lu Zhan a little in his heart for messing up his marriage contract, and he subconsciously put Lu Zhan into the list of bad guys.
After Liu Wei asked someone to post the notice, he remembered Min Gong, a "hero", and ordered someone to announce his entry into the palace to see him.
Min Gong did not leave Luoyang, he was worried about the imperial court, and he planned to visit some relatives and friends in the city, and then stay for another month until the imperial court was slowly on the right track before leaving.
Soon, Min Gong was proclaimed into the palace.
Liu Wei ordered him to immediately go and find his "life-saving benefactor" as soon as possible. "It must be the emperor who wants to reward him for his rescue work." Min Gong said goodbye to Liu Bian, and thought in his heart, he first found his friend He Chuan, who was standing guard in the palace, and asked him to go with him immediately.
He Chuan's appearance is much better than that of his son He Hai: big ears, thick eyebrows, broad shoulders and thick back, and a height of seven feet and six.
Min Gong told him the truth as he walked towards the outside of the palace: "Brother He, a friend of your niece He Qian has made a great contribution and saved the emperor's life last night. The emperor was overjoyed and ordered me to find the man immediately. ”
"Really? My niece's back? One of her friends saved the Holy Driver? "Saving an ordinary person and saving the emperor is a world of difference, the benefits are indescribable, and the shock in his heart can be imagined. Hearing the news of Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing, he knew that his niece had completed the arduous task of sending the holy decree, but he hadn't seen her yet, so he couldn't help but be a little worried. Now, knowing that she is fine, a friend of hers has made a great contribution...... Rejoice, his heart is now filled with joy.
"Hey, in my opinion, that young man and Qian'er are not just friends."
"What's the explanation?"
"When I see Qian'er, you can ask and know, I'd better not chew the root of my tongue, hehe......"
……
After leaving the palace, Min Gong led a group of men and horses to rush with He Chuan at full speed - from the south gate of the palace (Suzaku Gate) to He Chuan's residence, there was a road of four or five miles in between. It can take a quarter of an hour on foot, but on horseback, it takes less than half an hour.
It was such a coincidence that before they arrived, the boy in the brocade shirt and the sheep butcher rushed to He Hai's residence with the same team.
At that time, Lu Zhan and the others had just finished eating, and when they were sitting and chatting, he asked Dian Wei and Hongyi Ming to go to Changshan County in Jizhou to find Zhao Yun. Mr. Tian, who was sitting on the side, heard it and smiled slightly: "I don't know if you can take me with me?" ”
"Mr. Tian is leaving the capital?" Lu Zhan asked in surprise.
"Now the capital is like a volcano after an eruption, the environment is harsh, and I can't do anything if I stay here. It just so happens that I live near Changshan County, and I want to go back and see it. Mr. Tian explained.
"What county is near Changshan County? It's a pity I can't remember. Lu Zhan seemed to have caught the clues about Mr. Tian's identity, and said in his heart, then looked at Dian Wei Hongyi and said, "Then you will take care of Mr. Tian all the way, and you can't be lazy." ”
Dian Wei and Hongyi are now familiar with Mr. Tian, and immediately nodded in agreement.
"I have an idea, in order not to attract attention, how about you two pretend to be husband and wife along the way?" In order to create a "chance to chase the red clothes" for Dian Wei, Lu Zhan had a wit.
"Okay, that's a good idea." Dian Wei applauded.
"What's good? I think it's better to pretend to be a master and servant. Hongyi's face flushed, his chin lengthened, and he retorted.
"Yes, yes." Dian Wei went against the grain and accepted the way.
At this moment, a group of soldiers wearing armor and holding swords rushed to the right side of the alley in front of the door of "Da ......", and the leader was a middle-aged man with thin eyebrows and peas, followed by a boy in a brocade shirt. He looked at Lu Zhan and the others in the small building with a smug and spicy expression, as if they had all become turtles in the urn and could be captured.
This is not over, and the hurried footsteps of "Click......Click" can be heard on the left side of the alley.
