CHAPTER IX

"Coming?"

"Coming, they left dozens of cavalry with them outside the city, but they just followed lightly, and they didn't even go to her father's place, and came directly to the general."

"Well, even if he has a heart, let's have a good reception."

Sure enough, I went to Zhao Kui and Zhao Fan's official residence first, and only Murong Fu, Yang Guozhong, and He Kang, an officer in the city, and a few girls accompanied me into the city. Duncan and that Zeng Aniu said that they would follow the team, and Murong Fu agreed for me. He'll be a good man among my men.

When he arrived at Zhao's mansion, the Chinese officer He Kang went in to hand over the name post. I looked around and said with a smile: "Just Murong and I will go in together, let's find a place to wait, and then we will go to my father's place together after we meet." ”

After a while, I saw two officers of the two Huai armies walking out with He Kang with a straight face, saluting me and saying, "The two generals are now waiting in the inner hall, and the master will go in." ”

I, a character who has been swaggering and deceiving for so long in the name of the two Huai armies, is finally going to see my own general. I straightened my clothes, took a breath, and said to Murong Fu, "Let's go." ”

Along the way, the temporary location of the two Zhao and Shi Songzhi's line are different. Shi Songzhi is rich and rich, and most of the people who come and go are some suave characters with light fur and slow belts. But here is a simple layout, and the envoys in the house look like soldiers, strong and neat, and silent. It's a different story.

After a few turns to the inner hall, I saw two middle-aged people who looked vaguely similar, sitting on the big horse golden knife, watching me walk in with blazing eyes.

Murong Fu and I glanced at each other, announced their respective titles in a loud voice, and bowed to each other.

Zhao Fan didn't speak, he was my own general, and I didn't dare to raise my head when I was lying there. I heard the sound of boots, and Zhao Fan turned around me a few times before he said coldly: "Get up, it's hard work from afar, and I'm also born to you." ”

Zhao Kui, who was still sitting there, was gentle: "General Yu has been running all the way, so sit down and talk first." ”

Murong Fu and I sat down in the chairs below, waiting for Zhao Fan to speak. Zhao Fan circled there with a cold face. finally said: "General Yu, you are the son of Brother Xiushan, and you can make a career in the north by yourself, I was very close to you in my heart." It stands to reason that this is the first time you have come to see me, the Commander, and I should encourage you to be ............."

I bowed my head respectfully and said: "It's the subordinates who shouldn't have the wrong idea, first return to the south from Jinghu, and live up to the good intentions of the general, it is the fault of the subordinates, please punish the lord heavily." ”

Zhao Fan snorted: "You will slowly know in the future, I lead the troops, and the most important thing is to be strict up and down, and the order is forbidden." When you go from Jinghu, you have your own thoughts and really difficult situations, and I understand this. But you have to report it to me! They are all courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty, there is nothing that Shi Songzhi and I can't discuss, is state affairs important! But you do everything yourself, and that's what I don't want to do. ”

Seeing that his brother Zhao Kui was about to speak, Zhao Fan shook his head and continued: "When you joined our army, the situation was very different. It's not the old man who followed me in the beginning, so I'll forget it this time. But from now on, you have to stand on your feet! What if you want to switch to another army? You can also speak first, and I won't get in the way. ”

I was in a cold sweat and wanted to explain. Zhao Kui has already begun to help me play a round: "General Yu, don't worry, Wu Zhong is just talking to his face, if you don't say it, it will actually make you even more uneasy." In fact, my two brothers value you very much, so just listen carefully to the orders in the future. As long as you keep your mind, we won't treat you badly, Brother Xiushan is still in the same court as us! The future is bright and ambitious, and General Yu is going to do it. ”

Murong Fu and I glanced at each other, both of us feeling panicked, and were about to speak. Zhao Fan had already changed his gentle expression, and smiled at me in the tone of Uncle Shi: "Isn't it just that you want to cry out for your Guiyi Army and ask for support?" If the Jinghu Army gives it, I will naturally give more! Why don't you go to see Brother Xiushan now, do your son's duty? ”

Zhao Kui also smiled at me: "Go, go, go!" When I came to Lin'an, I came to see us first, and I was already very emotional. We won't leave you to eat. Hurry up and accompany your father, there will be no idle days in Lin'an right away. ”

The two brothers beat me again and again, and it made me break out in a cold sweat. Only Murong Fu and Liang Zhao were left to handle some seals, customs and defense handovers, roster submissions, officer registration, etc. I ran out of the house. I'm going to see my dad in a hurry. This officialdom really gives me a headache.

When I saw my father, his expression was pale, and he asked the people who came with him to settle us down. beckoned me to come to the study to talk. This son came back from afar, and he couldn't see the joy of the old man at all, and this kung fu of nourishing qi could be regarded as a home for him.

Entering the study, Yu Xiushan's first sentence was: "What are you doing when you come back?" ”

"Come back to determine the ownership of the Guiyi Army, ask for supplies, and I am out in command, if I don't go back to the south in time to express it, it will not be good for the court to be suspicious of me."

"You're talking stupid! It's not time for you to worry about the affairs of the center. Let me ask you three questions: Are you on a solid foundation now? What is the direction of your future exhibition? How much do you know about the situation in Jiangnan? ”

I can't answer any of these three questions.

Yu Xiushan's expression is still so stern: "You are now with an unstable foundation, the future direction of the exhibition is uncertain, and your eyes are dark about the changes in the DPRK situation!" "He didn't have any scruples about me. There was a slight excitement on his face: "I don't think you know anything about the three points of magic, art, and potential!" Your current status in Dengzhou, as long as you stay there with peace of mind and put yourself in order, someone will naturally come to your door to show good contact. Supplies are naturally endless. That's taking the initiative. Now it's better that you go back to the south and come to worship one family after another, and you can handle every family? There are some enemies in the flats! There are a lot of people in this world that I can't get my hands on and don't let others get them. You're really nothing in the South. Alas............ In the north, I think you are too proud, and you can't communicate with me in letters and newspapers, and now you are in this situation............"

There I listened with my hands down, and my back was covered with cold sweat. In the north, I am the general, and others can only listen to my reprimand, but in the south, everyone is polite, and no one has ever pointed out the mistakes in my behavior so sharply. In this way, it was really wrong for me to go to the south.

I muttered, "That............ Shall I leave for the North? ”

My father scolded again: "I think you're getting more and more stupid!" Now that you're here, why don't you just leave? After you have been summoned to see you, and then you pull your legs and leave, what will your general think of you? What does the emperor think of you? What does Zheng Senzheng think of you? Now that this is the case, don't mess around............ You have to make up your mind that you don't have to go left and right anymore. Otherwise, the loss is just around the corner. ”

Yu Xiushan finally changed his expression, with a hint of concern in his eyes: "You are also working hard in the north, and I don't have to restrain you here anymore, you can go down and rest early." Also, if you want to solve the major marriage matter, it is good to handle it in Jiangnan, and leave some blood and bones down, it is not in vain that you came to the world like this. ”

I was a little moved, and suddenly thought of the trouble that the Nan Beggars Gang was asking me for, so I hurriedly asked, "Dad, what is the origin of my brother-in-law Xiao Feng?" Why do all the characters on the rivers and lakes mention him when they see me? The Southern Beggars Gang is even more ruthless and bullying to trouble me. I'm so annoyed by the identity of such a righteous brother. ”

Yu Xiushan looked at me fixedly, and finally sighed: "That kid ............ That kid............ Alas, it's time to tell you about it. ”

"At that time, I just won the system and entered the academy smoothly. Being alone in Lin'an is the time when the heart is high and there is not much to do. That day in the West Lake, I saw a group of people bullying a little Hanako, although the little Hanako was grown up at that age, but he was still beaten to death by those people. I couldn't bear it in my heart, and I drank those broken houses. Take the child back to the next place to recuperate and treat him. When asked carefully where he came from, the child stubbornly refused to speak. After a few days of delay with me, the boy slowly told me. Their ancestor was Xiao Saba, the hero of the Khitan uprising during the reign of King Jin Hailing, and his name was Xiao Feng. After the failure of the uprising, he fled to Jiangnan, and he was already the third generation. It's a different race, and it's been an extremely difficult time. Xiao Feng was very cautious again, listened to the rumors on the rivers and lakes, and wanted to learn martial arts to get ahead, but when he was stealing the teacher, he was beaten by others, and he was saved by me.

I felt pity for this child at that time, and at that time I befriended Master Jingqing, the host of Linyin Temple, who was a martial artist, so I asked the master to pass on his martial arts. I didn't expect Xiao Feng, this kid to be both highly talented and extremely able to endure hardships, he can learn any martial arts as soon as he learns it, and he is a god of entry. Master Jingqing was pleasantly surprised, and he extended the famous teacher for that child, and put all his thoughts on Xiao Feng. This kid also lived up to the hard work of the two of us, and by the time he was twenty years old, it was said that he was already one of the best figures in the martial arts in the next generation. I don't know much about this, but watching a poor child gradually become a promising young man, and the eyes flashing with hope make me the happiest. ”

Looking at Yuxiushan's distant expression, I didn't dare to speak, and quietly listened to his old man's memories there.

"I treated the boy like my own son. But Xiao Feng's kid has his own opinions, and he doesn't want to be a young master in our Yu family, except for your mother and Yu Zhong, no one else has seen him. You were young at the time, and you didn't have an impression of him. He went out on his own to roam the rivers and lakes, this is his own man's ambition, and I can't keep him. Later, I heard that he voted for the Loyal and Righteous Beggars Gang, and he made some contributions, and the leader of the Loyal and Righteous Beggars Gang valued him very much, and everyone thought that he was the next gang leader.

One day Xiao Feng came back suddenly, and I haven't seen him for a long time. He was already very stout, and he had grown into a man, and he happily told him that the leader of the beggar gang had sent him to the north on a very dangerous mission, and when he returned, he officially made him the heir of the loyal and righteous beggar gang. Although I am worried about him, this is his own wish, and I can't stop him.........

After another three or five months, Master Jingqing came to me and told me very sadly that Xiao Feng's child had returned to the south. But the Loyal Beggar Gang didn't know why they wanted to deal with him. In Jiujiang Juxian Village, he opened a fragrant hall to kill him. I was so anxious about him that I wanted to go to him right away. As a result, Master Jingqing told me that Xiao Feng's kid was like a mad tiger in Juxian Village, killed dozens of martial arts masters, and escaped with serious injuries, and no one in the world thought that the kid's martial arts were so high and he was so ruthless! Master Jingqing said that he was also present at the time, and Xiao Feng was like a demon god, that kind of martial arts that human beings could not compete with. Later, it was rumored that Xiao Feng had surrendered to the Mongols, and Master Jingqing persuaded me to forget that I had such a son. ”

Speaking of this, Dad almost sighed. I was thinking about Xiao Feng's majestic and murderous spirit in Juxianzhuang back then. My brother-in-law is really a great hero.

"I don't think I'll ever have such a son. In any case, he was raised by our Han Chinese, why did he surrender to Mongolia again? Later, before Master Jingqing passed away, I went to see him. Master Jingqing said that the most proud thing in his life is to have a disciple like Xiao Feng, and the saddest thing is to have a disciple like Xiao Feng. also vaguely talked about Xiao Feng's recent situation, saying that he founded the Northern Beggars Gang in the north, and suppressed the prestige of the Quanzhen Sect for a while. This child's ability is indeed very strong............ Later, I seemed to hear that the Khitan people of the Jin State had revolted again, Yelu Liuge became the Liao king of Mongolia, and Xiao Feng's child made a great contribution to him as the leader of the Northern Beggars Gang, and now he is an important minister under the command of the Liao king............ That's when I really lost hope in that kid, and I didn't say anything about it in front of you. ”

There was silence in the small study. Yuxiushan seems to have fallen into the most far-reaching memories. I didn't know what to say there, from my father's tone. I think that the status of our two sons in his mind is average.

Yu Xiushan shook his head and looked at me again: "Chen'er, our Yu family has always had no backers in the court. Your father was born as a poor scholar. Now the two sons of the Yu family, one is an important minister of the Mongolian Liao king, and the other also has elite soldiers in the north, and your father often feels that he is on the cusp. If we are not careful, our Yu family will be in a state where we will never recover. Since you have come this far, I originally dispelled the idea of expecting you to be a rich man safely. Your future steps, you must think twice, now we are father and son, I am not afraid to say a word to you, only by firmly grasping the strength in your hands, my father and son can be protected! ”

At this point, we don't need to talk any further. My father was a very smart man, and when the world was not right, he went home to sell medicine and obscurity, and now because of me, he has been forced to this step again. He can't help but plan for our Yu family.
