Just when Liu Ru had a headache for the unrequited love of his close friend, Pang Gang also ushered in a guest he was familiar with.

When night fell, the ten Daifuku boats cruising on the river during the day also formed a semi-circle formation, forming an encirclement of the Hangzhou wharf before anchoring and stopping the ship. Burning cowhide lanterns were lit on all ships, which were enough to be seen by people from miles away on a rainless and windless night.

Just after 19 o'clock to 21 o'clock, a small boat came from the direction of the pier, which could only accommodate four or five people, and there was a small red lantern hanging on the boat, which was hung to prevent misunderstanding between the people on the big boat, and it was also the rule of night driving on the water. One is to use it for lighting, and the other is to prevent misunderstandings.

Therefore, when the small boat approached the big ship, it was waited by the sergeants who had been waiting for him to take the big ship, and was immediately sent to the flagship where Pang Gang was.

When Pang Gang saw this mysterious guest, he smiled, "Haha, Lord Song is coming, Pang Gang is far away." ”

After seeing Pang Gang, the visitor also smiled bitterly and said, "Huge man, let's meet again." ”

At this time, Pang Gang couldn't help but laugh, although he had already expected that Hangzhou would definitely send people, but he didn't expect them to send Song Xinghe.

In fact, it stands to reason that the more concealed this matter is, the better, and the other party can completely let Xi Lianglin, the governor Chen Hai, and even Wu Yadong come in person, presumably their safety can still be guaranteed. But these people were afraid that Pang Gang would take the opportunity to detain them and send Song Xing and this outsider, which shows that they have neither courage nor responsibility, and such people Pang Gang no longer regards them as his opponents.

Pang Gang stretched out his hand, made a gesture of please, and chuckled: "Lord Song, please inside, I didn't expect that I waited for a few days, but I looked forward to you." ”

Song Xinghe's face turned red, how could he not hear the sarcasm in Pang Gang's words, but Governor Chen and Xi Jicha made them unwilling to come, but they sent him, an irrelevant person, which he didn't expect even in advance.

However, the officialdom pays attention to the fact that the official is crushing people to death, and he does not have as strong a force as Pang Gang in his hands, and he is not as bold as him, so he naturally cannot fail to obey the orders of the officials.

Fortunately, Pang Gang still gave face, but he didn't mention it after mentioning it lightly. After the two sat down, they waited for the soldiers to come forward to serve tea, and Song Xinghe took a sip of tea before he smiled bitterly: "Huge people, you and I are old acquaintances, but now that Song is in his life, I can't catch up with you." ”

"Of course, let's go public before private, if Lord Song has something to say, please say it directly." Pang Gang didn't care, although Song Xinghe had been sitting in the position of Hangzhou's commander since he came to Hangzhou, he didn't do anything to hurt himself, so why should he bother with him.

At this time, Song Xinghe's originally kind face also began to become solemn, and he asked word by word: "Huge man, Governor Wu asked you, you have made enough of these words, even if you were wronged a few times, it is enough to compensate you now, you should go back." ”

After Song Xinghe finished speaking, he looked directly at Pang Gang to see what he could say, but Pang Gang still drank tea and was silent, as if what Song Xinghe said just now was just inconsequential nonsense, and now Song Xinghe couldn't hold his breath no matter how good he was. He asked with a slight anxiety in his tone, "Huge man, you haven't answered the official's words yet." ”

Pang Gang slowly put down the teacup and chuckled: "Lord Song, since you are here as the commander of the soldiers and horses of Hangzhou, then the official will not go around in circles with you, and the official can clearly tell you now!" ”

As soon as Pang Gang's words came out, Song Xinghe couldn't help but be a little angry, in his opinion, Pang Gang was too ignorant, people were going to get benefits and slip away, but you were chasing after him, but it was too much, did you really want to offend the officials and gentry in Hangzhou to death?

Seeing that there was a faint anger on Song Xinghe's face, Pang Gang was not afraid, he smiled faintly: "Lord Song, please go back and tell Governor Wu, don't take my words as a deaf ear, and don't think that you can fool your official by showing me the heads of a few death row prisoners, no one in this world is smarter than anyone else." And what I want has to be sold to me, and the price has to be at the market price. ”

Song Xing's face sank, this Pang Gang was too bold to dare to take himself and Governor Wu in his eyes so much. However, when Song Xinghe was about to attack, he saw Pang Gang sitting on the chair and looking at him coldly, a smell of oppression came to his face, in addition to the evil spirit of the soldiers, but also with a temperament of not being angry and arrogant, at this time, Song Xinghe realized that although he was sitting in front of him was his successor, he was a dignified general of Sanpin Dingyuan, and he was two levels higher than himself when he picked up his grade, and the most important thing was that he was still a general with heavy troops, and the gold content was much greater than that of his own commander. It's no longer an object that you can scold at will.

Thinking of this, Song Xinghe couldn't help but smile bitterly, as if just yesterday, Pang Gang didn't even have the qualifications to sit in front of him, so he could only stand respectfully and listen to his instructions. But thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, how long has it been, and the other party has already become the object of headaches even for the governor.

Song Xinghe sighed and said gloomily: "Okay, my lord's words are already clear, so the lower official will retire." ”

After speaking, Song Xinghe stood up and arched his hand towards Pang Gang and walked back, looking at Song Xinghe's stellar and lonely figure, Pang Gang wanted to stand up and call him, but finally sat back again. Although he was a little unbearable, he also understood that the current Song Xinghe was the commander of Hangzhou, and he was ordered by the governor of Zhejiang to persuade him. If he softens, then his purpose of coming to Hangzhou will be completely frustrated, and in two months, when a steady stream of displaced people pour into Qingzhou, he will regret today's soft-heartedness.

Pang Gang shook his head, shook his somewhat sore neck, stretched his waist and walked towards his room.

Pang Gang's room was on the second floor, after he went down the stairs, he turned right, but found that the light was still on in a room on the right, and there was a faint sound coming from inside.

When Pang Gang walked to the door, a sound of elegant and melodious music came from the room, Pang Gang heard that this was clearly Chen Yuanyuan's voice, and only heard Chen Yuanyuan sing: "The flowers fall and the water flows red, there are thousands of sorrows, and there are no words to complain about the east wind." The snow waves shoot the sky, the autumn clouds roll in the sky, the east wind sways the weeping poplar line, the gossamer pulls the peach blossoms, and the bead curtain covers the hibiscus surface. Delicate flowers interpret words, gentle jade and fragrant. ”

Immediately, another voice sang: "It's already hurtful, it's worth the remnant of spring." How many degrees of dusk can Luo Yi fade away? The wind curls and the smoke does not roll the curtains, and the rain hits the pear blossoms and closes the door. Speechless, his eyes are broken. ”

This voice Pang Gang also heard clearly, this was clearly Liu Ruyi's voice. I only heard the two singing and harmonizing, one was as crisp and pleasant as a jade bead falling on a jade plate, and the other was tactful and lingering, but together it was a gripping heartstring, the sound seemed to float from the distant sky, gently swinging into Pang Gang's heart, like a clear spring pouring his body, around Pang Gang, a person who was not very interested in opera in his previous life, he couldn't help but applaud.

"Good, good singing!" Pang Gang, who heard the wonder, couldn't help but slap the door frame, and suddenly let out a muffled sound.

"Jingle Knock!"

Pang Gang didn't shoot it, but after a beat, there was a sound of things collapsing inside, and Pang Gang realized that he had disturbed other people's Yaxing.

Soon, there was a "squeak", the door was opened, and Liu Ru, who was wearing a pale yellow dress, stood behind the door with a red face, and said in a tone of shame and anger: "Huge man, the master is already deep, why don't you go to rest but come to the people's house to do outside?" ”

"Uh" Pang Gang, who was annoyed and blushed, smiled helplessly: "Originally, the official just wanted to rest, but he was attracted by your music, and he couldn't help but praise when he heard the wonders, this matter is the official's, I'm really sorry."

After speaking, Pang Gang sincerely bowed his hand to Liu Ru to apologize, which made most of the small resentment in Liu Ru is heart dissipate, and the eyes looking at Pang Gang eased a lot. In fact, this is also a big difference between Pang Gang and the people of this era, he does not have the manly spirit of men in this era, nor does he have the habit of treating women as mustard, and he does not have the idea that brothers are like siblings and women are like clothes. Therefore, he does not feel that it is a shame to apologize to a woman, which is something that few men in this era can do.

When he talks or interacts with other women in Pingyue, he unconsciously brings with him the habits of later generations, which is a respectful and equal attitude that emanates from his heart, and it is this attitude that makes the female surnames who have been in contact with him unconsciously have a good impression, even people like Liu Ru, who has a lot of criticism about his current approach, have to admit that putting aside some ideas, this Dingyuan general is definitely a very attractive man.

Seeing that Pang Gang apologized to him, Liu Ru stared at him for a while before he burst out laughing: "Okay, since the general is here, please come in and have a cup of tea." ”

"What's so embarrassing about that." Although Pang Gang said so in his mouth, his footsteps had already stepped in.

When Pang Gang sat down, Chen Yuanyuan, who was dressed in white, hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea, Yingying walked over and handed it to Pang Gang. Since it was night, Chen Yuanyuan didn't wear many clothes, and the thin white shirt made her look as if a white cloud had floated into this small room. She lightly swept her moth eyebrows, tapped her lips, and revealed a kind of otherworldly charm in her elegance; With long sleeves and bright eyes, the smile is like a peony flower shrouded in smoke, hazy and tempting.

The beautiful woman was stunned by Pang Gang!
