The next day, it was drizzling in the sky.

Xiao Bowen hurriedly found Liang Ying, the head catcher of Jingzhao Mansion last night, and was introduced to Jiang Lian, the "Huahua Tai Sui", but it was too late when the two of them arrived at Yanliu Lane, and Jiang Lian had consumed too much energy to find flowers and ask Liu, so he had returned to the house early to rest, so he couldn't see Jiang Lian. Because of this incident, he went home not only to face Zhu Yan's painstaking inquiries, but also to face many interrogations by his parents, and in desperation, he had no choice but to truthfully explain Xiao Ruixue's arrest, but the reason for this was that he only dared to say that it was caused by the government's misbelief in rumors.

Today, he hurried to Jiangfu early in the morning to see that Huahua Tai Sui, but after the other party accepted him eight hundred taels of silver with a smile, he told him that all the prisoners in Jingzhaofu Prison had escaped from prison last night and killed all the prison guards and guards outside the prison, and said that he did not know Xiao Ruixue's whereabouts, and he only promised that if Xiao Ruixue came back safely, he would no longer be embarrassed by it.

When Xiao Bowen came out of Jiangfu, he couldn't help but feel a little dark, he already thought that Xiao Ruixue had been taken away by many prisoners, and at this time, he was afraid that not only his innocence would be difficult to care about, but he was afraid that even his life was in danger.

"Siniang, Siniang, it's the eldest brother who hurt you!" Xiao Bowen slammed the carriage of the carriage hard, and he was already in tears. The groom asked cautiously, "Young Master, do you want to go back to the mansion?" ”

"Going home?" Xiao Bowen muttered, "Hey, but when I go back home and face my relatives, how can I talk about this?" ”

The words were divided into two ends, and the time had come to dusk.

"Childe, I heard that the Jingzhao Mansion prison has been full of turmoil, this is a major event that has never been seen since the founding of Southern Chu, the emperor Lao'er was furious about this, and reprimanded Yin Qianlun of Jingzhao Mansion in front of him in the temple, and reprimanded him for being in charge of the yamen. Haha, what's even more interesting is that Jing Zhao Yin wanted to make up for the public in front of the emperor, so he rushed back to Jingzhao Mansion directly after the court, while he sent all the officials to search for fugitives in the city, he privately set up a high reward out of his pocket, and issued a notice to the people, saying that as long as someone assists the government to capture any prisoner, he can get a reward of 100 taels of silver, and for the famous bandits, the amount of silver is even as high as hundreds of taels to more than 1,000 taels! "This man was about thirty years old, and although he was sitting, he could not hide his tall body, and his appearance was even more coarse, and he was full of beards, and he expanded around, wrapping his strange face like a lion.

"There are as many as 100 prisoners who escaped from the Jingzhao Mansion Prison this time, according to this calculation, the reward to be paid for this will be no less than 10,000 taels, it seems that this Jingzhao Yin is quite generous!" After listening to the big man's eloquent talk, a young man smiled slightly, and the meaning of his smile did not know whether it was a real boast or a secret derogation, in short, it was a little unpredictable, but this young man was only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a pair of sword eyebrows straight into the cloud temples, quite recognizable, not Chen Qi and who it was, but he had changed his name not long ago to Cao Ming.

"After all, it's the Qian family gate valve, how can you not have this bearing? I have to say that Quan Meng's hand is wonderful! I heard that Qian Lun originally planned to accept him as a house slave, but he ignored him, so that Qian Lun drove the jailer to engrave words on his face to humiliate. ”

Cao Ming said: "Quan Meng is not only brave, but also quite resourceful, and he is indeed a rare talent!" ”

"Haha, it seems that Childe has developed a heart of love for talent, and I can be regarded as a credit!"

Cao Ming nodded, and his smile was much more genuine, but there was a trace of worry on his brows: "Since ancient times, capable people have been arrogant and arrogant, although Quan Meng's release from prison this time is my contribution, but I am afraid it is not so simple to make him loyal to me!" Pang Heng, what is your best plan? ”

The big man named Pang Heng said: "Quan Meng is a person who values love and righteousness, when I married Jin Lan with him in Hongze Lake, I was quite taken care of by him, so I know his origin very well!" ”

"Oh? Listen to it! ”

"Quan Mengben Liang State Qingzhou people, when he was young, he was sent to Taiyuan to join the army because of the injustice and accidentally injured people's lives, and later because of the appreciation of the son of Qin Han, the general of the Liang State at that time, he was promoted step by step to the cavalry vanguard general under his command, so he has been loyal to the Qin father and son, and later the Qin father and son were killed by the Liang Emperor together, he rebelled directly, intending to kill in Luoyang to avenge the Qin father and son. However, he was weak and was defeated by Tian Mao, the general of Weishun who replaced Qin Han's position, so he had to lead the remnants to flee all the way, and finally became a rogue, and fled into the area of Hongze Lake, subdued the eighteenth water bandits, and sat down as the leader of the water bandit alliance. And Hongze Lake is the Southern Chu Naval Division Governor Lu Si controlled the place, Lu Si for the Qing bandits, several times sent troops to attack him, although the power of the fierce has the talent of the generals, but because of the majority of the water bandits, the training days are short, can not be formed, the final enemy can not be Lu Si's dignified water division, and finally the battle was captured. Lu Si sent his second son Lu Hengjie to personally escort him to Jinling, handed over to the emperor to personally send down, the emperor sentenced him to be beheaded at noon after seven days, in order to correct the world's hearing, and then I learned about it, and then I begged Gongzi to rescue. ”

Cao Ming smiled and said, "So that's the case!" I heard you talk about it roughly before, most of them mentioned that his bravery is outstanding and worthy of rescue, but I can't imagine that Quan Meng is a loyal and brave person, which is rare! He pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but be a little curious: "Qin Han's name is like thunder, it is rumored that this person is known as the spine of Liang State, when he died, the Emperor of Yan State had celebrated for three days, but I don't know much about Qin Han's son, you just said that Quan Meng was appreciated and promoted by him, and I think this person is not an ordinary person, do you know a thing or two?" ”

"Actually, I don't know much about Qin Han's son, but according to Quan Meng, this person's name is Qin Yun, and his bravery is better than Quan Meng's own, and he is resourceful, and later his fame among the Yan people even gradually surpassed that of Qin Han. However, he was short-lived, joined the army at the age of fifteen, rose to prominence at the age of seventeen, and was killed with Qin Han at the age of twenty, so he did not have time to become as famous as his father. ”

When Cao Ming heard this, he sighed slightly: "Everyone has their own destiny, and this is also their own life!" But then again, if he doesn't die, Quan Meng is estimated to still be serving under him at this time! ”

Pang Heng said: "Exactly, Childe, Quan Meng has no one to be loyal to now." In the first few years, he led the remnants of his army to flee in all directions in the territory of Liang, with nowhere to live, until he fled to Hongze Lake, and his situation improved slightly. I had a candlestick with him last night, and learned that he had defeated Lus three times before he was captured, and that Lus had recruited him for this, and that he did not want to continue to be a bandit, so he also wanted to surrender, but because of the arrogant behavior of the messenger, he was killed by his men, and finally the two sides broke up and fought again. Therefore, in his heart, he was actually tired of this kind of wandering life, and he just wanted to vote for the Lord! ”

Cao Ming heard that Quan Meng had defeated Lu Si, and his eyes couldn't help but flash, but he hesitated slightly: "I can understand that he wants to serve Lu Si, but we can't compare to Lu Si, we don't have a single soldier, how can we attract him to serve?" ”

Pang Heng laughed and said, "How can the son say that there are no soldiers? Have you forgotten the shadows we set up over there at the Dragon Slayer? Seeing Cao Ming's eyes lit up, Pang Heng continued: "Although Sha Dao Chang is excellent in martial arts and is enough to serve the public, he doesn't know soldiers, and I know soldiers but I don't know how to train. I believe that if there is the right to take charge of the town, and the chief of Shadao will subdue the hearts of the people for the son, within two years, he will definitely be able to return tens of thousands of elite soldiers to the son, and then the son will be able to achieve a great cause! Speaking of this, Pang Heng had already clenched his fists and bowed deeply towards Cao Ming.

Cao Ming's calm face, which was inconsistent with his age, finally showed a hint of excitement, and after a while, he calmed down and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, I want to subdue Quan Meng, where should I start?" ”

"Childe, I have an idea. Quan Meng's life is bright and upright, but his face is branded with the word 'thief', although he often says that the eldest husband doesn't care about his appearance, but he must be angry about it. Therefore, Gongzi can start with two things, one is to send someone to kill that Jingzhao Yin Qianlun for Quan, and the other is to find a way to help Quan Meng remove the imprint on his face, so that Quan Meng will definitely be grateful to Gongzi, and then Gongzi only needs to be polite and virtuous and treat him sincerely, then Quan Meng will inevitably be attached. ”

Cao Ming groaned slightly, and after a while, Fang said: "The killing of Jing Zhao Yin is too important, and the incident of the Jing Zhao Mansion Prison has just happened, it is easy for people to link these two things together, so it is too dangerous and must not be feasible!" As for helping Quan Meng remove the brand on his face, it seems impossible, but in fact it is simple, I will fly the pigeon to Suzhou Taohuawu and invite Luo Tanhua to Jinling! ”

Pang Heng was slightly surprised: "But that Luo Tanhua, who is known as the prodigal son's miracle doctor?" ”

"Exactly."

"I heard that if you want this person to practice medicine, you must kill someone for him, but Childe can't-"

"Yes, I killed more than a dozen lives for him, so he already owes me more than a dozen favors, so I think I have to pay it back slowly, hum!" A slight sneer appeared at the corner of Cao Ming's mouth.

At this time, suddenly a maid in the back house hurriedly came to report: "Childe, the little lady you rescued yesterday has been suffering from a high fever, and has never woken up after sleeping for a day and a night, she is now sweating profusely, babbling in her dreams, I am afraid that if this continues, she may not survive tonight, and please ask Childe to tell me how to behave!" ”

When Cao Ming heard this, he didn't want to pay attention to it, but just wanted to tell the maid to go back and continue to wait, and finally give himself a result. But somehow, he suddenly recalled the scene in the Jiming Temple, and a slight throbbing flashed in his heart.
