Li Hu nodded and said: "In terms of official affairs, it is indeed not easy, we are from the green forest, the government regards us as enemies, and it is not too late to exterminate us, and ordinary merchants, how can they rest assured that we will keep the goods." ”
"There are four people in the world, such as farmers, businessmen and merchants, people say that merchants are cheap, and peddlers are pawns, if they are holding goods, it is a serious business, is it a businessman, or a martial artist? You must know that we don't even have a yellow nationality at the moment, and we can't even count one of these four people. If we travel 100 miles, the government will check it, and we will all be exiled to Liaodong one by one. ”
Li Hu is right, this is also the reason why there are so many green forests in Shanxi, and he would rather rob and destroy the trade routes than become a formal good citizen.
Li Chongjiu thought for a moment and said: "Dad, I originally wanted to ask the Li family for the matter of the Huang family, but now that this is the case, we will find the owner of the single village to come up with an idea, or follow the merchants who hired us all the way, and if the government investigates, they will come forward." There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, Dad, you don't have to worry too much. ”
Li Hu thought for a while and said: "It's just that we already owe a lot of favors to the owner of the single village, and no matter how troublesome it is, it's not good, so it's better to think of a way." Xiao Jiu, you are right, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, our father and son work together, and there are so many brothers in Qiqianzhai, there is a way after all. ”
While he was talking, a thief outside ran in with great interest and said to Li Hu and Li Chongjiu: "Big master, young master, good news!" Good news! ”
"Speak slowly." Li Hu said in a deep voice.
Everyone in the room looked at the bandit who had been announced.
I saw that the other party breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The big master, the young master, the six brothers who were arrested by the government last time have been released." ”
"Really?"
Li Hu couldn't help but be shocked, when Qiqianzhai was besieged by Yin Kaishan, the county commander of Shiai County, and led the township soldiers, several brothers were captured.
After Li Hu and the others settled down in Erxianzhuang, those few people's families cried day and night. Li Hu couldn't look at it, so he ordered someone to take all the remaining savings of the cottage and go to Shiai County to find a way to find a way to see if they could be rescued.
But this time, those officials who were extremely greedy in the past and hated to peel off a layer of skin from people returned the money in full, and they didn't dare to accept any good meat.
These officials told them truthfully, this Yin County Order is a powerful character, this time it is ruthless, to do the matter of the Seven Thousand Villages into an iron case, these six thieves are on the iron shackles, and they will be executed before the autumn, and they are also ready to send arrest documents, and all the fish that have slipped through the net in the Seven Thousand Villages are wanted.
So when he heard the news, Li Hu was also helpless, Qiqianzhai now has the protection of Shan Xiongxin, and Yin Kaishan is only a county commander, no matter how great his ability is, he can't control Shangdang County, but these six brothers are not hopeful.
Li Hu was ready to collect the corpses for them, but he didn't expect them to return.
Li Hu hurriedly said, "How are these six brothers now? ”
The bandit sighed and replied, "Everyone is injured, but fortunately they can still walk, but it is a few people who sent them back." ”
"What is it?"
The thief replied, "They are neither officials nor ordinary people, and they do not ask them where they come from, but they ask me to give this letter to the young master." ”
Speaking of which, the thief really took out a letter, and everyone was stunned, but Li Chongjiu understood it.
It was almost early winter.
The grass market near Erxianzhuang also dispersed early, and the sheep dealers drove the sheep that had not yet been sold, and the merchants who had been peddling along the street all morning also began to pack up their stalls, carry their burdens, and carry their backpacks home.
After crossing a small river, these merchants suddenly noticed that a group of uninvited guests had come to the east of the small river today.
More than dozens of tall horses, tied to the green willow trees by the river, chirped low from time to time.
The merchants have their own merchants who sell horses outside the customs, and these high-headed horses are all first-class Turkic horses, and it is rare to see one or two horses, but they have seen so many horses in one breath.
But the merchant did not come forward to see it, but urged his companions to hurry up, and even took a detour from the side of the bridge.
In fact, without the urging of the horse merchants, the merchants on the side were already terrified when they saw a row of twenty ironclad men under the riverside pavilion.
The iron armor on the bodies of these big men is dark and heavy, and the sun is setting, shining on the armor, and it does not reflect light, and the indifference on the face, and the fierce color that does not put human life in the eyes from time to time, is enough to make it
These merchants trembled.
However, these iron-clad men were certainly afraid when they saw it, but at this moment, they all looked solemn and waited motionless outside the pavilion.
There were three people in the pavilion.
Except for a big man wearing iron armor, the other two were all women, one woman dressed as a maid, with a double mustache on her head, which was already a rare beauty in the north, and every merchant couldn't help but be stunned when she saw it.
And what makes people secretly praise is the scenery of beauty and iron armor, I feel a little beautiful, but as for what beauty, these businessmen who have no ink on their chests can't say accurately.
As for the other woman, she was facing away from the crowd, wearing a snow-white coat, and stood with her hands in her hands.
Many of the merchants are knowledgeable people, who are dressed in a moon-white coat, and the collar is made of snow-capped white mink skin, which can be described as priceless.
Although they couldn't see her appearance, everyone saw that the other party was just a back figure standing with their hands in their hands, and they already felt that she had an outstanding temperament, and she was absolutely unspeakably stunning in the country and the city.
Seeing that the white wrist was holding the horsewhip, although the merchants passing by had the intention of seeing each other's faces in their hearts, they saw the group of iron-clad men standing under the pavilion, and they all had this plan in their hearts.
As a result, the merchants passing by could only pass by the pavilion with the mentality of watching from a distance and not blaspheming, as if they were just admiring a peerless painting.
Just as everyone sighed, a series of horses' hooves were heard.
When they turned around, they saw a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a long bow on his back and a short knife at his waist, riding his horse onto the bridge, and then turning away from the side of the road to the pavilion.
Seeing the scene, all the merchants stopped, and wondered how this young man could rush away.
Because this young man was only dressed in a short linen robe, even the servants of the girl in the pavilion were dressed much more luxuriously than him, how could the two sides be acquainted.
But when it was surprising, after the young man dismounted in front of the pavilion, the ironclad men did not step forward to press the man to the ground, but instead stepped forward to lead the horse for the other party.
The teenager actually walked directly to the pavilion.
Seeing this scene, all the merchants were dumbfounded, what is the identity of this young man?
This young man is Li Chongjiu, and the girl in the white cloak in the pavilion naturally drove hundreds of miles from Taiyuan County to Li Zhiwan in Shangdang County in person.
Li Chongjiu walked up to the pavilion and saw Li Zhiwan staring at the long river in the distance with her hands in her hands, and the white sable fur on her cheeks stretched softly along the north wind with a bit of chill.
Li Chongjiu suddenly felt a little bit, he didn't recognize Li Zhiwan in front of him, when he was in the cottage, he was at odds with the other party, and he didn't feel it.
But at this moment, Li Zhiwan is with an awe-inspiring nobility, which is not sudden, but the century-old heritage of the Li family, and the grace after the family.
It really takes one night to become a nouveau riche, but it takes three generations to become a nobleman.
In his time, when the unenterprising rich second generation often became a derogatory term, people habitually ignored the elite in this class, and attributed their current success and status to having a good father.
Is it only cloth clothes that rule the world that is a hero?
Whether it is this Li Sanniang, as well as his brother Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and their father Li Yuan, which one is not the dragon among people, the Li family in Longxi, or the elite of the gate lord clan in the Great Sui world.
"Brother Li!"
Li Zhiwan had already turned around and pulled Li Chongjiu back from his train of thought.
"Sanniang!"
Li Chongjiu saw an undisguised joy from Li Zhiwan's eyes, and immediately said: "Thank you Sanniang for saving my six brothers, and the whole of the 7,000 villages will remember this in their hearts." ”
Li Zhiwan smiled slightly, and said: "Brother Li, you're polite, although we can't talk about it, but since this matter started by us, we should solve it." ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhiwan nodded, and Jian Xue, the maid on the side, took a brocade box and handed it to Li Chongjiu.
After handing it over to Li Chongjiu, Jian Xue naughtily stuck out her tongue at Li Chongjiu.
After Li Chongjiu took the brocade box, he didn't know what it meant, so he only heard Jian Xue say with a smile: "Li Gongzi, this is the yellow book of the nine people that the young lady specially went to Taiyuan County to guard and gave you seven thousand villages. ”
Hearing Jian Xue say this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but have a hint of surprise on his face.
This is exactly what Li Chongjiu wants most at the moment.
The so-called yellow register is the household registration at that time, and the paper treated with yellow barberry can avoid silverfish, so the paper color is yellow. On the top of the yellow book, the Zhu pen is hidden, the paper is sewn, and there is a seal in the government, which is recorded in the case policy, proving that you are an official subject of the Great Sui Dynasty.
When Li Zhiwan went down the mountain, Li Hu wrote a copy of the information of several people in the cottage and handed it to Li Zhiwan and asked him to apply for a yellow registration. Later, with Yin Kaishan attacking the cottage, everyone thought that the Li family had done it, so they forgot about it.
Unexpectedly, Li Sanniang still remembered.
Li Zhiwan smiled and said, "It's much easier to get this yellow book than to save your six brothers." ”
"How do you say that?" Li Chongjiu couldn't help but be surprised.
At that time, Li Hu's expedient measure was that the 7,000 village thieves attached to the name of the Li family as tenants of the Qubu Department, and stayed until a few years later, and then changed to a beloved, which was so easy to do now, but it was unexpected.
Before Li Zhiwan could speak, Jian Xue preemptively said: "It's not that today's Son of Heaven is conquest of Liaodong and the requisition of civil servants, Taiyuan County has postponed the matter of Dasuo Maung Reading for several months due to the lack of households. That's why our young lady has the opportunity to make up for you. ”
I just thought about it. Li Chongjiu suddenly realized.;
