Yang Hao listened to Li Guangcen's words, and suddenly remembered a long-sealed heart, and his heart fluctuated for a while, and his face became strange. In fact, he is not sure whether this is really the case in his heart, and at this time, it is naturally inconvenient to tell others about the imagination of that day.

As soon as Li Guangcen asked, Yang Hao hurriedly collected his mind and said, "Oh, Hao'er suddenly remembered something else, a private matter, nothing. Father-in-law, it is not uncommon for poison to kill people, but this medicine kills people invisibly, and you can easily put yourself out of the matter, which is very rare. Is there an antidote to this medicine? ”

Li Guangcen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Kakhaqin has fiddled with drugs all his life, he often said that any poison in the world must have its antidote, just see if you can find it or not, this nameless poison naturally has an antidote, but don't say it." ”

Li Guangcen blinked and chuckled: "If I hadn't saved his life, I was his best brother and best friend, even if I was to him, he wouldn't have said it." If people knew that there was a solution to this poison, it wouldn't be worth that much money. Last year, a person from the Central Plains bought two copies from him, and spent 20 pieces of gold leaf full of color. ”

Yang Hao's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What is the identity of the Central Plains people?" ”

Li Guangcen said: "I only listened to him casually, who cares what identity this person is, besides, buying medicine must be used to harm people, who is sneaky and willing to reveal his identity?" His eyes froze, and he suddenly said thoughtfully: "Hao'er, are you ...... What's on your mind? Have you ever seen someone who has been poisoned by this poison? ”

"I don't know yet, it's just that I'm suspicious, so don't say it." Yang Hao tightened his grip on the box and asked, "The antidote, but what is in this white bottle, how to use it?" ”

Li Guangcen didn't ask, and said: "Exactly, in fact, it is very easy to make an enemy and kill an enemy. If you can turn enemies into friends, then you will be more capable. A long time ago, someone used this poison to harm a great khan, and then went to detoxify him, so that he could be trusted and become his close servant. The powder in this white bottle is divided into five parts, one per day, and given to the poisoner, and after half an hour, he pats his whole body with both palms to help his blood and qi stretch and exert his medicinal properties, and after five days, it will be detoxified. ”

Yang Hao carefully remembered what he said, carefully held the medicine in his arms, and then said: "Father-in-law, Hao'er thinks, since you are always leaving, you must go briskly, and not give people the impression that you are reluctant to leave." It's been too long now, and I'll leave in the next two days. It's just that it is not easy to gain a foothold in Luling Prefecture, there are many things that are not good to put on the table, and after the new official takes office, it is even more difficult to explain to him, so he has to trouble his father-in-law to always be in charge of the overall situation, but now many things have rules, and there are many manpower available, and the father-in-law does not need to work too hard, just to prevent not to be detected by the new prefect, those things can be big or small, and many disasters will be born when they fall. ”

Li Guangcen bowed his head: "For the sake of my father, we have many villages and tribes here, all of which are relatively independent, different from the towns in the Central Plains, and the new prefect has no way to know everything about the following." Besides, the officials below, including the township officials Lizheng, are all brought up by us, and it is easy to hide these things, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

The two discussed carefully for a long time, and when they saw that Li Guangcen was a little tired, Yang Hao asked him to rest, and then got up to say goodbye. As soon as Yang Hao left, Mu Kui walked out from behind, looked at the direction of Yang Hao's departure, and said in disappointment: "This official family of the Great Song Dynasty is clearly Mingsheng and secretly descended, and seized the power of the young master, so the young master accepted it so willingly and went to Beijing to take office?" The young master is benevolent and righteous, and he is an admirable and convincing master, but unfortunately he is not ruthless enough and is not a figure who does big things. ”

"Bold, the young master is also something you can accuse and comment, there are no rules!" With the reprimand, Mu En, Namuhan, and Qi Jin walked out from behind, but it turned out that these people did not leave, and they had been hiding behind and listening to the conversation between the father and son.

Mu Kui defended: "The young master is not in love with the stack of power, he is at peace with what he encounters, and he wants to be free for a lifetime, and I have nothing to say." But this Luling Prefecture was fought by his hard work, so many of us are wholeheartedly fighting with the young master in all directions, life and death have no regrets, the young master said to leave, I am not comfortable in my heart! ”

Li Guangcen smiled slightly and said, "Come, you sit down." ”

After a few people sat down beside him, Li Guangcen's eyes swept slightly, and said, "Mu En, I know that even if you are reprimanding Mu Kui, the thoughts in your heart are actually the same as Mu Kui. ”

He let out a long breath and said, "However, if Hao'er is a ruthless, ambitious, and reckless person who only cares about his own gains and losses, think about it, will he still be your young master?" At the beginning, we were just a burden and a scourge, and he could not get any rich and noble authority, if he only cared about the gains and losses, would he be willing to take the risk to accept our people? Will he do these things for you and for the people of Luzhou? As long as he keeps to himself and stays in this Luzhou honestly, even if he is oppressed by the strong vassals, it is only the people of Luzhou who will be harmed. ”

Several people looked at each other and stopped talking, Li Guangcen's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, Hao'er has never been an ambitious hero who wants to become the master of one party, why do you use ambition to judge him?" ”

Several people bowed their heads in mockery, and Namuhan said in a low voice: "What the Lord has taught is that it can be ...... After all, the young master is now our loyal master, and as soon as the court gives an order, he will be ordered to leave, and we ...... I don't know what to do in the future. ”

Li Guangcen sighed softly and said, "So what do you think Hao'er should do?" Refusal? In that case, disaster was about to come, and how could the court not think of the possibility if he refused to obey? How could there be no aftermath? The Zhe family has been operating in the northwest for 300 years, and it is okay if Zhe Yuxun does not follow the holy decree, do you think that Hao'er has been running this Luzhou for less than a year, and is qualified to resist the holy decree? Hey! If he does not comply, he will be killed immediately. Since you have to go, you have to go if you don't follow, and you have to complain and be reluctant? Isn't that ignorant of current affairs and bringing trouble upon oneself? ”

Several people looked at each other in confusion, and Tong Jin couldn't help but say: "The subordinates are stupid, please make it clear to the lord." ”

Li Guangcen glanced at them and said lightly: "If Hao'er is really a man of great talent, then he received the holy decree, the best choice is to immediately leave everything here, and return to Beijing with the decree, and not leave the eyes and ears of the messenger for a moment, so that the official family's vigilance can be completely eliminated, his life can be saved, and only then can Xu Tu plan for the future."

The real heroes are not like brute bulls, who they see who they are topping, but they must be able to bend and stretch, endure when they should be forbearance, bear humiliation when they should be humiliated, and wait patiently until the opponent will hit when they have a flaw that will die, or wait until the most favorable opportunity for themselves will show their ambitions.

Now, we have offended Xiazhou, if we lose the support of the imperial court, all our efforts will be wiped out in an instant, what do you think Hao'er should do? Is it to pull the flag and rebel, or do you do everything possible to refuse to obey your orders and stay to resist Xiazhou in the west and the imperial court in the east? Do we have that strength now, we already have a grudge with Xiazhou, if the court puts pressure on us again, do you think who will be willing to support us in Fuzhou and Linzhou? ”

Li Guangcen snorted coldly and said: "You only know how to complain, and you only feel that you are not happy enough, but Hao'er's heart moves, and between actions, what is decided is the life and death future of 50,000 soldiers and civilians in Luzhou, that is, whether this Luheling will become a deserted ruin again, if he is also like you, regardless of the consequences and interests, only knows pleasure and revenge, shouts and kills at every turn, and refuses to suffer a little loss, then he is called a hero?" A group of stupid things, those emperors don't talk about it, you look at the three feudal domains in the northwest, which one is not as strong as a snake and weak as a dragon, maneuvering around and struggling to survive? It's just that these days, those Hengshan Qiang people who braved the cold to go back and forth with me in Luling Prefecture and made friends with Hao'er, don't they know how to judge the situation and avoid evil? You horsemen, you only know what great things you have achieved with the courage of your flesh and blood. ”

Several people were reprimanded by Li Guangcen and lost their temper, Mu En was calmer, thinking about it carefully, now there is really no other choice, and he can't help but say embarrassedly: "Lord, if the young master goes to the capital, then what should we do?" ”

Li Guangcen narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "How many heroes throughout the ages are not because they want to be kings and hegemons, but because the current situation has pushed them to that position, and he can't help but obey." Did the official family of the Great Song Dynasty have the ambition to be the emperor in the first place? If it weren't for the fact that he already had heavy troops, if it weren't for the strong young ministers of the court, who was suspicious, if it weren't for the repeated instigation of Zhao Pu, Gao Huaide and others, how could Chen Qiao be called emperor half-pushed?

Besides, Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, was repeatedly bullied and oppressed by Yang Guang, but he only wanted to survive, as a prince, he was only a guard captain Shaoqing, holding the flag for Emperor Yang's travel, managing the car, how could he have been ambitious? If he hadn't occupied a Xiongcheng first, and had a strong army under his command, Yang Guang would have lost the hearts of the people, and in this case, Pei Lin lured him to have an affair with Emperor Yang's favorite concubine who lived in Jinyang Palace, Liu Wenjing pretended to be a court official document to force Zhuang Ding to provoke a popular uprising, and Li Shimin, Xu Shixu, Wu Shitong and others repeatedly instigated him, how could he pull the flag and rebel and achieve the hegemony of the Tang Dynasty? ”

He looked at a few absolutely trustworthy henchmen in front of him, and said earnestly: "The times create heroes, and the times are the time, the place, and the people." If the time and place are not favorable, you must not have ambitions, obediently stay in this Luling Prefecture, and take the continuation of the ethnic group as the first priority. If the right time and place can be used by me, then the people are you......"

Namuhan and the others were still a little puzzled, but Mu En had already realized something.

Li Guangcen leaned on the futon and said slowly: "The time has not yet come, and the location has not yet been achieved, so now we can only recuperate, sting, and secretly accumulate strength." If your strength is not good, once the wind and clouds are surging, you will be the first to be swept out of the clouds, and what do you want to do?

Hao'er has aroused the vigilance of the imperial court, if he stays in Luzhou, he will attract the attention of the imperial court from time to time, and under all kinds of constraints, how can we develop. Now that Hao'er is going to Beijing as an official, it is the plank road of Ming Xiu, and we can breathe a sigh of relief. As long as we don't go wrong here, Hao'er will not be safe in Kaifeng. If one day, when the time comes, and the location is favorable, what Pei Lin and Liu Wenjing can do, you can't do it? What Zhao Pu and Gao Huaide do, don't you know how to do? ”

"Huh?" Li Guangcen looked at it, and Namuhan and several people got up and said in a deep voice: "My subordinates understand! ”

Li Guangcen nodded and said with a smile: "Although Cheng Dexuan has been holding back in Luzhou, he is very honest in front of Hao'er, and he has never been in charge of anything except the laws of Luzhou, but this Luzhou has come into existence from scratch, and he has seen it in his eyes, once the new prefect arrives, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not do anything." The most urgent task is to bring this scourge down first. As for the rest...... Long Xingyun, Tiger Xingfeng, what Hao'er lacks now is the wind and clouds, you just have to be patient and do your own thing, and wait for the clouds and wind ......to come."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ clouds did not come, neither did the wind, but the first snow of the winter came.

The snow was pouring down on the sky, covering the rolling hills, the fields that spread to the sky, and the undulating reeds. Yang Hao was draped in a big hat, standing on the third pedestal of the half-built Kaibao Fuyi Iron Tower, overlooking everything in Luling Prefecture.

Beside him, Mu Yu, who was dressed in a strong suit and wearing a short knife at his waist, stood quietly, and there was no one else.

Yang Hao was leaving today, and he didn't let the state officials come to see him off, nor did he make the news public. The people only vaguely knew that the prefect was going to be promoted and going to Kaifeng to become an official, but they didn't know the specific date. When it should be low-key, it is still necessary to be low-key, Yang Hao doesn't want the people to brave the snow to send it, and he doesn't want to make any tricks such as 'Wanmin Umbrella' and 'Virtue and Politics Card', which provokes Wanmin to send each other, which is definitely not a good thing for him at present.

Before leaving, he just wanted to stand quietly on this high place alone, looking at this land that he couldn't let go. Overlooking the entire Luling Mountains from here, there are countless snow ridges overlapping on three sides, and the snow mountains are piled up with natural screens. In the endless snow-capped mountains, there is a continuous reckless jungle, and Luzhou in the middle is surrounded by these mountains, although it is also covered by fertile snow, but there is no north wind that calls...... Bazhou Ding's family has never been his home, but it is also unforgettable for him, because there is grace and hatred that he can't forget. And here, he built it single-handedly, the mountains and rivers here, the people and soldiers here, all of which he created from scratch and single-handedly, and his feelings are naturally deeper.

Standing for a long time, the heavy snow has covered him into a snowman, watching the fluttering snow falling, Yang Hao's heart is at ease, that kind of sadness is faint and timeless, and it feels like it, but there is no piercing pain. He looked nostalgically at every place he walked, took a long breath of fresh air, and whispered, "Go!" ”

Step by step, from the peak to the foot of the mountain, a large cart was already waiting there, and seven or eight samurai armed with swords were all waiting by the side of the cart, standing straight, and the snow was piled up on their heads and shoulders, but they did not move.

Yang Hao looked at these loyal subordinates and smiled happily, but when his eyes turned to the cart, he was stunned, this is a very luxurious carriage, he had driven the carriage for the Ding family, and it can naturally be seen that just looking at the decoration of the appearance, he knows that it is luxurious inside, there must be a bed and a chair inside, you can sit and read, you can sleep peacefully when you sleep, and there is a wine cabinet food box, like a moving room.

The car was very sturdy, with wide and tall wheels, four strong horses, and just by looking at the handlebar holding the whip, I knew that he was a connoisseur who was accustomed to running long distances, and he would be able to drive the car safely and steadily, without too much bumps. But this car was not the one he was going to use for the long journey.

"What is this car?"

"My lord, this car was sent by Miss Tang for your adult journey." Sun Zhen, the guard on the side, clenched his fists and said, the snow on his shoulders fell immediately because of his movement.

These eight guards were all good people carefully selected by Mu En from the tribe, all of them were clever and proficient in Chinese, and for convenience, each of them gave a Han name.

"Miss Tang......"

Yang Hao's heart warmed, he was too busy these days, he was busy delivering things every day, and he had to explain some hidden issues to his confidants, where to take care of Tang Yanyan. Some time ago, Tang Yanyan couldn't avoid seeing her, he knew what Tang Yanyan was worried about, and he also took advantage of the situation at that time, deliberately snubbed, and 'reprimanded' her without a trace, although he knew the reason for Tang Yanyan's approach, and he could understand it, but Ziyu was gone after all, and there was no verbal blame, and it was not beneficial to temper her temperament coldly, and it was also conducive to the future relationship between the two.

But then the holy decree came down, there were more things to do, and there was no time to see her, this time I was going to the capital, and I only asked Mu Yike to go back to her, saying that she would go to the capital first, and then discuss the matter of marriage with her when she stabilized. With these words, when Ke Qi's heart is calm, but he only lets people take a word, with her always own character, even if it is not very popular, I am afraid it is also very displeased, I can't imagine that she also has such a comfortable carriage for her own use, this Nizi has really changed a lot.

Yang Hao took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Get in the car and go." ”

Stepping on the pedal and pulling the car door, Yang Hao was stunned again.

The inside of the carriage is spacious enough, and as soon as the door is opened, there is a rush of heat, a soft blanket underfoot, and a hidden stove on both sides of the car. Because the car was as warm as spring, the girl who was lying at her feet only wore a green spring shirt with narrow sleeves, a pleated skirt of the same color, and a double bun with black oily hair. ”

"Get up, get up, huh? Muyik, why are you here? ”

The girl Wan Wan Tingting stood up, with a melon seed face, a straight nose, fox and bright eyes, born soft and lovely, but her facial features were still a little immature.

"Master, Miss Tang knows that the master is going to the capital, and I am afraid that there is no careful person around the master to take care of her, so she wants the maid to follow the master and wait for the master to live."

Mu Yike said, obediently stepped forward, untied the big coat for him, and gently dusted off the snow chips, because the car was as warm as spring, and he couldn't stay in a thick coat at all, and came to untie his cotton robe for him, Yang Hao frowned, and said: "I go to the capital, I don't need someone to wait for me, Miss Tang is too ......, you better go back." ”

When Mu Yike heard this, he knelt down in a panic and said, "Master, please don't rush Yue'er away, this is not only what Miss Tang meant, but also ...... Yue'er's own meaning. The lord is the master of Yue'er, beheaded the traitor who killed the old father and insulted Yue'er, Yue'er has always remembered the great grace of the lord, the lord is a man, this is a long way to go to the mountains, how to take care of it without a maid around, please keep me. ”

Yang Hao saw her kowtowing again and again, her words were earnest, and he waved his hand helplessly: "Forget it, you get up." I remember your name was Muyike, and you changed your name too? ”

Mu Yike listened to his words loosen up, seemed to have agreed, and stood up happily and said: "Yes, master, Mu Yike means the moon in our Qiang language. Miss Tang said that changing a Chinese name is called habit. ”

"Hmm," Yang Hao opened her arms, she untied the padded robe, walked to the couch and sat down, leaning against the window on the side, propping up a table with a tea set on the board, Mu Yike hung the robe on the wall of the car, and hurriedly poured him a cup of tea.

The car was built very well, once it was driven, the bumps were minimal, and the tea on the table did not sway out slightly, only the gentle creaking of the wheels could be heard. The carriage was originally extremely spacious, but there was a little girl standing next to her, and her big eyes were still staring at him for a moment, and Yang Hao was uncomfortable when she saw it.

He is not the kind of son of the family, the children of the family have been accustomed to the waiting and care of others since they were children, and they look at the people as nothing as a piece of furniture, whether it is sex or defecation in front of them, they don't feel it at all, and Yang Hao can't do it, she looks at her like this, very uncomfortable.

He sat in the carriage, and when he saw the ancient book on the opposite case, Mu Yike would immediately go over and pick up the book and ask him if he wanted to read it; Glancing at the teacup, she immediately went to refill the tea; As soon as she lowered her head, she squatted in front of her, and a pair of small fists immediately hit his thighs, causing Yang Hao to cry and laugh, so he had to say, "Mu Yi...... Yue'er, this way is still long, you don't have to do this, it makes me uncomfortable, go sit aside and rest, I will call you if you need anything. ”

"Yes!" Mu Yike responded, walked to the side and knelt on the felt carpet, Yang Hao shook his head lightly when he saw it, and he didn't want to say anything, so he opened the corner of the curtain and looked at the misty snow outside the window. The snow was falling so hard that the snow on the ground was already thick and soft, and the horses were like driving on a soft white carpet, and even the creak of the wheels could not be heard.

The familiar scenery was hazy in the heavy snow, according to his orders, the officials of the state government did not come to see him off, and the unaware people also stayed at home because of the heavy snow, and at this time, I don't know how many people could see the car quietly leaving.

The car was very far forward, and it was as if something had been ripped off in his heart. Every time the snow fell, his mood quietly became heavy. The relaxed smile on his face vanished, and he sighed, looking nostalgically at everything that was quiet in the snow.

The tall and sturdy, European-style castle-like huge city gate in Luling Prefecture was open, and when Yang Hao's car quietly drove towards the huge city gate, the wind wrapped in snow poured in from the city gate, and the eight knights, and Mu Yu, who was sitting on the side seat of the carriage, pressed their fur hats with ear protectors and covered their mouths and noses with thick face coverings. But under the door in the wind and snow, there were dozens of soldiers on duty, standing there straight, the wind and snow blowing on their faces, but they didn't even blink their eyelids, as if they were made of steel.

But when the carriage came, they held their guns in their hands, and suddenly fell to their knees in unison, one knee in the thick snow, their guns in their left hands, and their right hands on their chests, and their bodies remained motionless, and their eyes followed the carriage that passed in front of them. Obviously, these soldiers guarding the gate knew who was carrying the car that was leaving in the snowstorm.

Yang Hao saw this scene from the gap in the curtain, his heart couldn't help but feel hot, and he almost opened the sedan curtain and stood out, but he still held back, but his fingers couldn't help but twist the thick curtain.

In the caves under the city walls on both sides, more soldiers on duty walked out, and soldiers who were not on duty, and soon, the white snow was covered with black pressure, kneeling on one knee and saluting with fists, and the return wind at the entrance of the door and hole rolled the snow around their bodies, and their bodies were like rocks that stood still in the wind and snow, standing there quietly.

Yang Hao's eyes moistened, he put down the curtains, turned his head, and saw Mu Yike kneeling on the ground, smiled at him, and said softly: "The people know that the adults don't want them to send each other, and they are afraid that they will rush to send each other, and they will cause trouble for the adults again, they didn't come, but they are all sending the adults in their hearts. The lord wants to leave quietly, and he doesn't want Luzhou to miss you, but no one in Luzhou has forgotten your kindness, and everyone is willing to serve the adults, Yue'er...... Also! ”

Yang Hao gently lifted the corner of the curtain, turned his gaze out of the car, and muttered to himself, "Yang Hao...... How can he ......?"

Gnaimaze, dressed in a big leather robe, looked into the distance, and when he saw the car coming from afar, he immediately turned around and ran, and walked through the snow, panting and shouting: "Girl, girl, Lord Yang is here." ”

A carriage parked quietly beside the reeds lifted the sedan curtain, and Tang Yanyan, who was dressed in mink fur, poked his head out, with a pretty face, bright eyes and bright teeth, charming and moving. Her eyes widened nervously and she asked urgently, "He's coming?" What kind of car are you in? ”

Gnemazze cried out happily, "It's the carriage that the girl gave him." ”

Tang Yanyan's eyes rolled, and he said to himself: "He is willing to take the car I sent, so ...... I guess I won't be angry anymore, right? ”

Gneema Zexin smiled: "The girl is so good to Lord Yang, how can the adult be angry with the girl?" I said that Lord Yang is very kind, and he will definitely not be angry with the girl. ”

Tang Yanyan glanced at her and snorted, "He is very stingy." But with a happy look on her face, she leaped forward, jumped out of the carriage and commanded, "I will go to meet him, and you will not follow." After speaking, he carried his robe and ran forward, like a spirit fox jumping happily on the snow......
