"I actually have a feud with Chai Shao? This guy is one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, he has been clinging to Li Shimin's thighs, and he is a close relative of the old Li family, I have a feud with him, do I dare to go to the old Li family again? ”

"By the way, Chai Shao's wife Li Xiuning is even more powerful, both civil and military, and she is still a military genius, and Niangzi Pass is because she guarded the pass and changed her name! I took her husband today and divorced her sister-in-law, what else can she have a good impression of me? If I go to Lao Li's family again, do I still want to have a chance to get ahead? No matter how loyal and capable I am to the old Li family, am I worthy of this woman's words in front of her father? ”

Lying on the small and narrow bed, Chen Yingliang sighed for a while, but it was too late to regret it, the words of Chai Shao's sister had already been shouted, and he couldn't swallow it back, going to Chai's house to make amends for such a shameful thing, Chen Yingliang would never be able to do it, in the case that it was already difficult to defect to Li Yuan, Chen Yingliang also had such a thought, "Why do I have to hug Li Yuan's thigh?" He was able to win the world because Wang Shichong, Li Mi and Dou Jiande, these cattle consumed the strength of the Sui Dynasty, and killed each other to exhaust their own strength, which made him hide in Taiyuan choose a big advantage! ”

"In that case, why didn't I even think about changing my thigh hug? Whether it is Wang Shichong, Li Mi or Dou Jiande, they may not have the strength and opportunity to win the world, and even Emperor Yang of Sui may not be able to protect his imperial court, with my help, they may not be able to win Li Yuan! If I have the opportunity to be lucky, I can even pull a team by myself and be the boss and compete with him Li Yuan for the world! ”

"Li Yuan, if you don't interfere in the affairs of me and the Chai family, if you dare to interfere, I will make you regret finding such a son-in-law as Chai Shao!"

Thinking of this, Chen Yingliang, who was extremely disappointed, regained his spirits, and at this moment, Chen Laosan came in and asked Chen Yingliang to eat in the hall, and Chen Yingliang immediately jumped up from the bed and strode out of the door briskly.

The meal is still very simple, it is a small plate of pickles with vegetable leaf porridge, and a bowl of mutton soup used to nourish Chen Yingliang's body, although Chen Laosan resolutely refused, Chen Yingliang still forced half of the mutton soup to Chen Laosan, moved Chen Yingliang finally sensible a lot, Chen Laosan suddenly remembered a big thing, hurriedly stopped chopsticks and said: "Childe, I am worried about you today, the old slave forgot a major event, and the engagement between our family and the Chai family has not been exchanged." ”

"Order a relative? What to order a souvenir? Chen Yingliang didn't pay attention to this memory.

"Back then, the old lady of our family and the old lady of Chai gave you the certificate of engagement with the third sister of the Chai family." Chen Laosan explained: "The old slave heard Mrs. say that the old lady gave the Chai family a golden hairpin inlaid with jade, which was played by the old lady when he invited a master craftsman, and the jade cost dozens of dollars to our own family, and the old lady of the Chai family gave you a jade pendant that was taken down from him, and I heard that it is still the beloved thing of the old lady of the Chai family, or an ancestral thing." ”

"Where is the jade pendant? How much is it worth? Chen Yingliang hurriedly asked.

"Childe, why do you ask me?" Chen Laosan replied with a wry smile: "When Mrs. passed away, I personally handed over the jade pendant to you, and asked you to keep it carefully, when I was eighteen years old, I took the jade pendant to the Chai family to propose marriage, and then the jade pendant has been hidden by you, how can the old slave know where you put it?" ”

"Really?" Chen Yingliang carefully searched the memories of the previous owner of the body, and found that it seemed to be a very precious and exquisite jade pendant, but he couldn't remember hiding it there for a while, so he said: "It's a jade pendant, and it must not be lost, but I can't remember hiding there for a while, but it doesn't matter, anyway, it's in this house, I thought slowly, by the way, I also waited for the news from the Chai family, if the Chai family wants to ask for the ancestral heirloom back, they will exchange our family's golden hairpin, if they don't want it, then we don't have to change it, Even if you suffer a little loss in terms of price, it's nothing, and I'm too lazy to worry about the Chai family. ”

Chen Laosan also knew that Chen Yingliang's memory was a little confused after he hanged himself, so he just urged Chen Yingliang to do his best to find the jade pendant, so as not to be at a loss when the Chai family came to the door again, and the destitute Chen Yingliang nodded and agreed, and began to think about how to sell the jade pendant at a good price and give his own head in exchange for the first start-up capital.

"The courtyard gate is not latched, my evil neighbor will break in directly, Brother Yingliang, don't mind." Qiao Songgongzi's laughter came from outside the door, and then Qiao Songgongzi, who had helped Chen Yingliang a lot during the day, strode in, holding a wine jar in his right hand and a small wine bottle in his left hand.

Chen Yingliang and Chen Laosan hurriedly gave up their seats, and invited Qiao Song Gongzi to eat together, Qiao Song Gongzi was not polite, and sat directly opposite Chen Yingliang, first put the wine jar on the table, and then took out a lotus leaf bag from his arms and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "I have already eaten the rice, drink a few glasses with Brother Yingliang, bring your own wine and food, sauce and thin wine, just prepare a pair of chopsticks and a bowl for me." ”

As he spoke, Qiao Song Gongzi handed the small wine bottle to Chen Yingliang again, and said with a smile: "Qinling good doctor Sun Simiao's bone-setting wine, Chai Shao's kick on your chest during the day is not light, apply it to the bruises, so as not to fall into the root of the disease." ”

Chai Shao's kick was indeed not light, leaving a large bruise on Chen Yingliang's chest, and it still hurts badly, but Chen Yingliang was afraid that Chen Laosan would worry and didn't say it, and at the same time, Chen Yingliang didn't expect that his good neighbor Qiao Song Gongzi would pay attention to such details, and with sincere gratitude, Chen Yingliang hurriedly got up and thanked him, "Brother Qiao Song, don't say a lot of words about the younger brother, if you have the opportunity, you will definitely repay the brother for today's feelings." ”

"You're welcome, who told us to be neighbors?" Qiao Song Gongzi waved his hand generously, and in turn beckoned Chen Yingliang to sit down, "A little neighborly friendship, what do you want to repay?" ”

While speaking, Chen Laosan had already brought a bowl of chopsticks, Qiao Song Gongzi unceremoniously poured the wine by himself, poured a bowl of wine for Chen Yingliang, picked up the wine bowl and said: "Brother Yingliang, this bowl of wine is a foolish brother who respects you, respects your iron bones, mighty and unyielding, rich and noble, and respects your talent. ”

"The elder brother is too awarded, and the younger brother is ashamed." Chen Yingliang hurriedly lifted the wine bowl and said a sincere word on the wine table for the first time, "Brother, this bowl of wine should be respected by the younger brother, brother, you help the poor, send charcoal to the younger brother's family, not afraid of rape, and still dare to fight for reason in the face of the powerful. ”

"Why say thank you for all the effort?" Qiao Song Gongzi also said modestly, then touched Chen Yingliang's wine bowl, and said with a smile: "Don't say the cliché, let's do it!" ”

Chen Yingliang nodded vigorously, drank the thin wine in the bowl with Qiao Song Gongzi, and then put down the bowl and laughed at each other.

After three bowls of wine in a row, the sky was already getting dark, Chen Laosan groped to light the lamp, but the old Chen family was so poor that they even had to rely on people to help them eat, and where could they find lamp oil to light the lamp? After listening to Chen Laosan's trembling explanation, Qiao Song Gongzi laughed and said, "Third Uncle, the moonlight is very bright today, what kind of lamp do you need?" Just open the door, you go and get busy with you, I have a few words I want to say to Brother Ying Liang alone. ”

Chen Laosan wiped his tears and agreed, opened the door and went to the kitchen to be busy with housework, and it was at this time that Qiao Song Gongzi asked curiously: "Brother Xian, there is something very strange about Brother Fool, Brother Xian, why did you suddenly remember to ask me about Tang Gong Li Yuan's situation today?" Could it be that the elders of the virtuous brother have any friendship with Tang Gong? Want to ask Tang Gong to come forward and teach Chai Shao a lesson about the brutal act of forcibly retiring from the marriage? ”

"Of course not." Although he had given up his plan to defect to Li Yuan, Chen Yingliang couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said truthfully: "Don't hide it from my brother, my younger brother wants to join the army, seek a way to advance, and find a chance to get ahead, but I didn't expect it, alas, it's ......." ”

"Join the army?" Qiao Song Gongzi was quite surprised by Chen Yingliang's answer, and asked suspiciously: "How could Brother Xian want to join the army?" The virtuous brother's family background and foolish brother have also heard of it, although it is a little declining, but it is also considered a famous family, how can he suddenly remember to be a soldier and eat imperial food? ”

"Joining the army is hard and dangerous, but it also has the most opportunities." Chen Yingliang replied calmly: "Heroes are born in troubled times, and now the next group of gangsters are everywhere, and the chaos has been revealed, and it is the time for heroes to use force, so the younger brother thought of joining the army to make meritorious contributions, find a place to live, and strive to regain the declining family business." ”

"The world is in turmoil?" Qiao Song Gongzi looked at Chen Yingliang, took another sip of wine, and then said: "Brother Xian, you said that the world has shown great chaos, have you said this?" Yes, in just two months, there are several bad news in the Qilu area, Meng Haigong, Meng Rang, Guo Fangpre and Hao Xiaode and other more than a dozen rebels gathered to make trouble, plus the slave thief Bai Yusao who rebelled in Lingwu at the beginning of the year, and the Qinghe Gaoshida and Dongjun Wagang thieves who have never been exterminated can be regarded as wolf smoke, for the Great Sui world, these ant thieves are just scabies, which can be destroyed with a single hand, why do you want to say that the world has shown a great chaos? ”

"Brother, the root cause of the chaos in the world is not these thieves, but the emperor."

The ignorant Chen Yingliang's meaningless words shocked Qiao Song Gongzi and almost jumped up, but Qiao Song Gongzi's nervous and frightened look could not be seen clearly in the room without oil lamps, so Chen Yingliang continued: "Today's emperor is indeed a hero, digging canals to connect the north and south, strengthening the connection between the north and the south, leveling the border to resist the Turks, protecting the people of China, and conquering Goguryeo, at any cost to wipe out the Goryeo barbarians, and forever eliminate the hidden dangers in the northeast. ”

"However, the emperor is too anxious, he only wants to live for a hundred generations, but he forgets the burden of the people." Chen Yingliang said: "What should have taken 50 years to complete, the emperor has to do it within five years, and these majestic deeds need to be collected from the people to complete the taxes, money and grain, and the 50 years of taxes must be collected from the people within five years, how can the people afford this?" ”

"Therefore, the younger brother thinks that if the emperor continues to be so anxious and rejoices so much, these rebels who seem to be ants will never be able to be exterminated, and they will only press the gourd to float the scoop, and the more the rebels are suppressed, the more the world will be more chaotic, and finally the disease of scabies will become a big problem, and even become the gravedigger of my Great Sui country............."

Chen Yingliang said these words, of course, are the evaluation of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty by later generations, and it is absolutely not surprising in later generations, but those who dared to say these words in Daxing City, the capital of the Sui Dynasty in the ninth year of the Great Cause, are definitely stunned that Chen Yingliang has just come to this era from modern society for only two days. As a result, Chen Yingliang dared to say it, and Qiao Song Gongzi didn't dare to listen to it anymore, so he hurriedly gestured to Chen Yingliang and said in a low voice: "Brother Xian, enough, enough, don't say it anymore, such words are not something that can be said casually, Brother Xian is outside, but you must not be so outspoken, otherwise you will be careful and worry about your life." ”

Thanks to Qiao Songgongzi's reminder and thinking of the ancient speech control, Chen Yingliang realized that his words were a bit risky, so he quickly stopped his mouth and smiled awkwardly: "Brother, don't blame, the little brother dares to say these words in front of you, and when he goes outside, the little brother will definitely not dare to talk nonsense." ”

"The virtuous brother dares to say it, but the foolish brother doesn't dare to listen to it." Qiao Song Gongzi smiled bitterly, and then admonished: "Brother Xian, such words came out of your mouth today, and entered my ears, no third person will know, this is nothing, but when you get outside, Brother Xian must not be so outspoken again, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth." ”

Chen Yingliang also knew that Qiao Song Gongzi was for his own good, so he also agreed, Qiao Song Gongzi relieved his heart a little, and then thought about Chen Yingliang's discussion just now, but Qiao Song Gongzi immediately found that Chen Yingliang's words are indeed very reasonable, and now the emperor is doing several major things, in fact, the starting point is very good, but he is too happy and too anxious to succeed, so it has caused the current situation of civil upheaval.

Surprised that Chen Yingliang, a seventeen-year-old boy, could have such insight, Qiao Song Gongzi couldn't help but have the heart to continue to probe himself, so he said: "Brother Xian, there is a topic we can continue to talk about, you just said that the emperor's conquest of Goguryeo is a great cause, forever eliminating the hidden dangers of Northeast China, but Goguryeo has already surrendered to my Great Sui, and when the first emperor of Goryeo King also called himself the Liaodong Dung Land Chenyuan, and he has already bowed down to my Great Sui, why do the virtuous brothers insist that they are the hidden dangers of the Northeast?" ”

Qiao Song Gongzi didn't improve the Li stick is okay, mentioning the Goryeo stick Chen Yingliang is full of anger, because in the Later Qing Dynasty, there was once a South stick who lost his wallet to the bureau to report the case, and did not provide enough clues to solve the case and even couldn't remember when and where he lost his wallet, which made Chen Yingliang's subordinates feel embarrassed, and it was difficult to solve the case for a while, but Nan Bangzi was not happy, while citing the example of a certain place where the Hou Qing Dynasty arrested and quickly found a car for the Japanese Kou, and resolutely asked Chen Yingliang's subordinates to solve the case immediately and solve the case on the same day, while finding Chen Yingliang's boss and making a fuss, Chen Yingliang, who was trying to attack the position of deputy director, gave up his previous achievements, and since that incident, Chen Yingliang has hated the stick to the core, and his hatred of Cheng Dù is still on top of his resentment against the Japanese Kou.

Under the anger, Chen Yingliang simply recited the famous sentence circulated on the Internet, and said loudly: "Those who are goryeo, the border is cheap, it is not enough to treat benevolence and righteousness, and it is not enough to be responsible for common courtesy. ”
