374 Coincidentally, Ye Chun said that the loach has strong self-esteem and is high
As mentioned last time, the two brave generals under Gao Yu's command, the commander Dang Shiying and Dang Shixiong, were easily defeated by Xu Fan and Zhao Min, which made Gao Yu lose face. Liang Wenzhen led Niu Ren Xu Fan Zhao Min, on the way to Jeju, but was intercepted by Zhao Ju, who was commanded by the guards and asked Liang Wenzhen to face the saint. In the palace, Liu Guifei defended that every time she went out, she left a letter to the emperor, and there was no private meeting with anyone as evidence. Emperor Daojun took out a piece of paper found by the palace miscellaneous servants, on which was Qin Shaoyou Queqiao Immortal inscribed by Liang Wenzhen. Liang Wenzhen was taken aback and found that the payment had been done. The crown prince and Empress Zheng came successively to prove Liu Guifei's innocence, Empress Zheng was proficient in appreciating calligraphy and painting, and it was clear at a glance that Liang Wenzhen's inscription was obviously fake. Emperor Daojun's doubts have disappeared, and he wants to give Liang Wenzhen's calligraphy works a treasure, evaluate the poetry and charm of Queqiao Xian, and ridicule Liang Wenzhen's lame calligraphy.
Liang Wenzhen did not dare to delay, and went on the road with Niu Ren Xu Fan Zhao Min, and four or five days later, he had arrived in Jeju. Seeing that inside and outside Jeju City, thousands of troops were on the road, and listening to the words of the people, Gao Taiwei was fighting with Liang Shan, and Liang Wenzhen hesitated. "Gao Yu is now fighting against Liangshan, we don't enter the city, we only live at the dock outside the city, and serve Jiang Zhao and them, but it is rare to have the latest news of the war, and it is inconvenient to deal with it." Liang Wenzhen said.
"Mr. Liang, we all have kung fu skills, and it is okay to stay in an inn in the city at night and explore by the canal during the day." Niu Ren said. "Okay, let's go into the city to find an inn, buy a boat tomorrow, and go to meet Brother Jiang and their fleet." Liang Wenzhen made up his mind and ordered the coachman to enter the city. The four of them followed on horseback, and when they arrived at the city gate, they were interrogated by the officers and soldiers for a long time. A sergeant saw Liang Wenzhen when he was in Changting, and saw that the two teenagers who were fighting with the commander Dang Shiying and Dang Shixiong were also there, and let Liang Wenzhen and his party enter the city.
found a clean inn, Liang Wenzhen asked for three upper rooms, one for himself, one for Niu Ren, one for Xu Fan and Zhao Min, and two middle rooms for the groom and coachman. After handing over the horses to the store to take care of and feed them, and settling down, Liang Wenzhen and the four of them went to the restaurant to eat, and the groom and coachman arranged another meal. The journey was hard, Niu Ren asked the shopkeeper to serve wine, and Liang Wenzhen had to drink a few glasses with him. "Captain Gao is strong and strong, and he will actually lose to Liangshan, which shows that he is very weak." Xu Fan said. "Brother Lin Chong is such a master, he is jealous of his ability and is driven out of the forbidden army, he comes to lead the troops as a marshal, what else can he do." Zhao Mindao.
Anyway, he will officially go out tomorrow to run errands, and Liang Wenzhen asked Xu Fan and Zhao Min to also drink a few glasses to relieve fatigue. "Shop, add a few more snacks to the wine, a good wine, and want my daughter to be popular." Liang Wenzhen shouted. "Laile." The little second-hand feet are quite fast. After a while, the shopkeeper brought dishes after dishes. At the table in front of him sat a man in his thirties, with shabby clothes, and he drank wine with a plate of peanuts alone.
Liang Wenzhen got up and went over to the side of the man. "This brother, when everyone goes out, they can chat together, exchange news, and come over for a drink." Liang Wenzhen invited. "Thanks, you're welcome to the little one." The man said. Seeing that Liang Wenzhen and the others were dressed brightly and did not look like villains, they came over with a wine jug and a wine glass, and sat down under Liang Wenzhen.
A table of five people, immediately push the cup and change the lamp. "Come, brother, have a drink. My surname is Liang Wenzhen, I came here from Tokyo to do business, I don't know my brother's surname, where is Xianxiang? Liang Wenzhen raised his glass and said. The small surname is Ye Mingchun, a native of Sizhou, who lives in Jeju and now lives on odd jobs. Captain Gao conquered Yangsan, there were many military horses, and many shops in Jeju City were afraid of things and closed their doors, so that the small ones had nothing to do today. "The man said." It turned out to be Brother Ye Chun, these people, his name is Niu Ren, this Xu Fan, this Zhao Min, they are all my brothers. At the time of the war, I don't know why the Ye Chun brothers didn't return to the countryside. Liang Wenzhen asked.
"It's a long story, the little one passed through Shandong because of something, and when he passed Liangshanbo, he was robbed by Liangshan bandits and lost his money, so he couldn't go home." Ye Chun took a sip of wine, ate a few dishes, and was a little in a hurry. "Brother Ye eats slowly, it turns out that it is not easy to go out when he is not entangled." Liang Wenzhen said sympathetically. Liang Wenzhen despised Liangshan and Song Jiang and his gang very much, and it was for this reason that while playing the banner of Tianxingdao, he specialized in stealing chickens and dogs, burning, killing and looting.
"Except for a few real heroes in Liangshan, the rest are all thieves who do all kinds of evil, if they don't rob you Brother Ye, what they eat and drink." Xu Fan said. "I heard that they drank in big bowls, ate meat in large pieces, and divided gold in large scales, how many silver taels was robbed by Brother Ye by them? I'm afraid it's not enough for them to stuff their teeth. Zhao Min asked. Hey, it's a lot, it's seven taels of silver, enough for my family for a year. Ye Chun said distressedly.
"Hahahaha, seven taels of silver are difficult for heroes, they didn't cut you into two pieces because you have less silver, Brother Ye can pick up a life, thank you Bodhisattva for blessing." Niu Ren laughed. Niu Ren used to be poor in the past, but since he followed Liang Wenzhen to do business, he had plenty of money, especially after doing jade business, what he sent to his hand at every turn was more than 10,000 taels of silver tickets. "Brother Niu is right, Brother Ye should burn high incense." Xu Fan said. "Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood. Brother Ye is a good person, and he will not always be unlucky. Liang Wenzhen said.
"Brother Liang, what kind of business are you doing, so easy to make money?" Ye Chun listened to Niu Ren's tone, and saw that a few of them were brightly dressed, and if they were rich, they must eat big tea and rice, so he asked. "We are in the jewelry business, which is very expensive and risky, and it is not easy to guard against robbers. What did Brother Ye do for a living, or what kind of craft were he good at? Liang Wen was really ambiguous and asked again.
"It is precisely that our Mr. Liang led our group of brothers to lick the blood on the knife, and the business has reached the point where it is now." Niu Ren will understand, and it is true and false. "Xiao's original job was to help people build ships, and he couldn't make a fortune, and the family had enough food and clothing." Ye Chundao. "Oh, the master who built the wooden sailing ship, we have to transport goods in business, and we often have to build ships, so we can use talents like Brother Ye." Liang Wenzhen heard Ye Chun say that he was a shipbuilder, and thought that he could use it for me, so he said.
"Liang is always a person who eats big tea and rice, if he is useful to Ye, Ye will definitely die." Ye Chun said excitedly. Being able to meet a noble person and change the current predicament, Ye Chun naturally will not let go of the opportunity. "What is the largest ship that Brother Ye has built?" Liang Wenzhen remembered that Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty went to the West, and the treasure ship was huge, and he didn't know how big the Song Dynasty could build. "The largest is called the big loach boat, which can accommodate hundreds of people, twelve people to step on, and a crossbow tower is erected on the surface of the ship, which can be used as a war ship." Ye Chun replied.
"Big loach boat?" Liang Wenzhen was shocked, and vaguely remembered that in "Water Margin", Gao Yu conquered Liangshan and built a warship, and the ship seemed to be called a big loach boat. It seems that the Ye Chun in front of him should be the one who Mao Sui recommended himself and helped Gao Yu supervise the construction of the warship. "Come on, have a drink. Brother Ye, let's set up a boat and walk around tomorrow, you have nothing to do, follow us, how about it? "Liang Wenzhen said." That dare is good, Ye also knows some sailors' abilities. Ye Chun's heart was overjoyed, he was shy in his pocket, tomorrow's meal had not yet been settled, and it was better to follow the mixed meal to eat.
Since then, every morning, Liang Wenzhen and others have taken a sailboat they bought, driven by a few hired boatmen, and walked dozens of miles south, hoping to see Jiang Zhao and their fleet. When Jiang Zhao and the others set off that day, because the road was far away, their whereabouts were uncertain, and the flying pigeon transmission was not accurate, so they were not prepared. Liang Wenzhen and others in order to ensure that the jade stone does not fall into the hands of Gao Yu, the only way to intercept it in advance and then make a calculation. In the evening, I came back to the Jeju City Inn, rested for one night, and went again the next day, for more than ten days.
Ye Chun followed Liang Wenzhen and the others, and he didn't have to do anything, just accompanied him on the boat, and sometimes gossiped. Ye Chun thought about it, he kept eating people's things, and he didn't do anything, so he didn't want to go. He has always been a strong person with strong self-esteem, and he slowly felt that Xu Fan and Zhao Min's words seemed to be dissatisfied with him eating for nothing. If a person is too sensitive, often others do not have this intention, and they will be too careful, Ye Chun is like this, inferiority complex and self-esteem are the cause.
On this day, several boats on the canal came around, and a small leader faced the boat of Liang Wenzhen and others and asked Liang Wenzhen and his gang to get off the boat. "On the orders of Captain Gao, all civilian ships will be requisitioned for military use." The little leader said. "We're going dozens of miles away, and we can't do it without a boat, so please be accommodating." Niu Ren stood on the bow of the boat and answered. "Military orders are like mountains, you must not disobey them, dock and disembark immediately, otherwise you will be killed." The little leader said angrily. "You go to fight the Liangshan bandits, but you are more like bandits! Get out of the way, we have something to do. Xu Fan said.
"Dare to disobey the people, dare to disobey the order, confront the imperial court, and kill the past!" The little leader was impatient and ordered. Seven or eight sergeants armed with Pu knives jumped over and slashed. Seeing this, Xu Fan Zhao Min and Niu Ren were furious, punched three fists and two feet, and knocked the soldiers into the water. Dozens of sergeants from the front and rear boats also jumped over to seize the boat, and they were all thrown into the water by Niu Ren. The little leader saw that it was not the head, and hurriedly drove the boat to die. Not long after, a large group of ships came to intercept it.
"Who on the ship dared to disobey the military order and die quickly!" A big man stood on the big boat and shouted angrily. "Our ships do not want to be requisitioned, so don't stop us!" Niu Ren said. He had already seen the officers and soldiers coming to stop him again, and Liang Wenzhen came out of the cabin to see the situation. "It's Mrs. Liang on the ship?" The big man on the other side asked. "It's the crown prince and the prince Liang Wenzhen, who are you?" Liang Wen really responded. "It turned out that it was Taifu here, and he was offended. Below is Niu Bangxi, the captain of the infantry military academy, who was ordered to requisition civilian ships. Dahan changed color, his tone was gentle, and he hugged his fists.
"Oh, it's Captain Niu, we've met before." Only then did Liang Wenzhen think of this person. "Taifu, don't go down there!" Niu Bangxi ordered to leave. "Mr. Liang, are you really the prince and the prince today?" Ye Chun asked in surprise. "Nominal Taifu, why worry about it." Liang Wenzhen said with a smile. Ye Chun saw Liang Wenzhen again, and his doubts were suddenly resolved, no wonder he was generous and wealthy, and he turned out to be a senior official in the DPRK. Infantry Captain Niu Bangxi immediately sent someone to report to Captain Gao that he had met Liang Wenzhen on the river.
Niu Bangxi had already received a secret order from Gao Yu that in addition to detaining civilian vessels every day, he also had to monitor the fleets of passing ships, and if he came across a ship transporting stones, he would immediately seize it. Liang Wenzhen is the richest man in the Great Song Dynasty, his Huaxia company deals in jade and jade, everyone knows, Niu Bangxi knows that the robbery of stone ships should be owned by Huaxia Company. Gao Yu was in the Jeju Mansion, got the information, and was puzzled.
"Liang Wenzhen, why did he appear in Jeju at this time, it is because the news has leaked, and he has been prepared." Gao Yu pondered, on the one hand, the war was tense, and on the other hand, he robbed the jade, if Liang Wenzhen had taken precautions, it would be difficult to take care of it. Immediately revise a letter and report it to Master Cai in Tokyo. In the first battle of Liangshan, many military horses were lost, and if Niu Bangxi could detain enough ships, he would join the naval army Liu Menglong and march by water, then a great thing could be accomplished.
However, it was said that Liang Wenzhen walked dozens of miles that day, and he was still the same as in the past, and he did not see Jiang Zhaoxu Jin's fleet. "Brother Liang, we go back and forth every day, it's very hard, it's better to find hotels on the shore and watch by the river, so as to save you from running around." Xu Fan said. "All of our belongings are in the inn in the city, so it's better to pick up all the items in the carriage tomorrow." Liang Wenzhen said. Each agreed, went back to the inn that night, washed up, and ate in the hall. After days of hard work, Liang Wenzhen didn't dare to treat his brother badly, and he had already explained to the store and prepared more wine and food, so the table was full of wine and delicacies.
"Brother Fan is a person who is afraid of hardship after all, we are just traveling dozens of miles a day, and we have to go to the mountains and wilderness on the road to meet them, when the time comes, there is no good wine and good food, but I am afraid that we will have to complain even more." Niu Ren said. "Brother Niu is right, I am still willing to come back every day, the village shop, where there are good dishes to eat." Zhao Min agreed. "Don't think that there are good dishes in the inn here, this stewed lamb belly, this sauce beef tongue, or I told the store yesterday to buy the ingredients." Liang Wenzhen said proudly. There are not many guests in the inn, and may not be in the inn, the store only prepares a few ingredients on weekdays, if you don't specifically explain, the store does not care, afraid of losing money.
"Hehe, for a good meal, it's good to eat a little bitter!" Xu Fan blushed and sneered, and no longer insisted on the idea of waiting outside the city. "Heh, my Niu Ren has summed up the experience, followed Mr. Liang, and ate and drank." Niu Ren said. "Brother Ye has a good life, when he meets my master, the general manager of Huaxia Company, he doesn't have to work hard, he has wine and meat, and he eats and drinks spicy." Zhao Min saw that Ye Chun was feasting and said with a smile. "Yes, yes, Ye was robbed by Liangshan bandits, and he was willing to come to his heart, and his fortune was on the head." Ye Chun smiled awkwardly. In the past, Jeju was very embarrassed and suffered a lot, but now it is inevitable to eat good wine and food every day. But hearing Zhao Min's words, Ye Chun's heart was quite uncomfortable, his own family had hands and feet, and he could build a good ship, but his current situation was under the fence.
Early the next morning, after Liang Wenzhen got up early to practice, he called everyone to have breakfast and was ready to leave, but Ye Chun was nowhere to be seen. Go to the guest room where he was staying, and leave a letter on the table. When Liang Wenzhen opened it and looked at it, the letter said: Duomeng Liang always takes care of it, he has a fate to repay him in the future, Ye has long skills, he can make a living, he has gone to join the army, and there will be a period in the future. Niu Ren, Xu Fan, and Zhao Min all took the letter and read it.
"Brother Min spoke inappropriately last night, which must have hurt Brother Ye's self-esteem, so he went." Niu Ren said. "Brother Niu, it's not good to rely on the little brother for this matter, that's the case, and it's also Brother Ye's heart." Zhao Min was not convinced. "Don't talk about who is responsible, Ye Chun is going to take refuge in Gao Yu, and his life is not guaranteed." Liang Wenzhen said.
Ye Chun is gone, what is his fate. Gao Yu was captured alive by Liang Shan, and the conspiracy to rob the jade stone could succeed. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
