Chapter 185: Wu Yingxiong, You're Finally Here!
Gao Xianda pondered for a few more days, and finally waited for Wu Yingxiong's news. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info The team he led has entered the realm of Henan and is rushing towards Kaifeng. So Gao Xianda led the crowd to meet him.
The speed of the large army was not much slower than that of the messenger, and they met Wu Yingxiong's men and horses outside the city that day. It's just too late to go back to Kaifeng City. Seeing that the sun was already in the west, Gao Xianda ordered to camp on the spot and welcome the prince of Pingxi here.
Wu Yingxiong is twenty-four or five years old, handsome in appearance, and with agile steps, he is indeed the demeanor of the son of Jiangmen.
Although he is in the hostile camp, Gao Xianda has recently read the original text of "The Legend of Deer and Ding", and has some sympathy for this prince of Pingxi, who is both civil and military, has a stoic personality, and has not made any big mistakes but was brutally castrated by Princess Jianning.
Gao Xianda said in his heart: "I cut off Wei Xiaobao for you, and I can be regarded as avenging you." ”
He thought so, but he couldn't say it. These things haven't happened yet, and Wu Yingxiong doesn't even know who Wei Xiaobao is, let alone revenge.
However, since Kangxi meant to let Gao Xianda protect Wu Yingxiong, Gao Xianda felt that it was better to make friends first.
So Gao Xianda greeted him with a smile and said, "Your Excellency, welcome, welcome!" ”
Wu Yingxiong knew that Ruidong was a celebrity in front of Kangxi, so he was quite respectful to Gao Xianda. Clenched his fists and bowed his hands, and said: "It's too late for the humble position, and the adults have been waiting for a long time, so please bear with the adults." ”。
Gao Xianda knew that his grade had improved, and it was also because Kangxi didn't want King Pingxi to feel that the court had treated them slowly, so he deliberately promoted them. If there was no Wu Yingxiong's pilgrimage, Gao Xianda would still be only a third-grade official.
Gao Xianda hurriedly stopped him and said, "Although my grade is slightly higher, you are the prince of Pingxi, the third-class viscount, and the crown prince." How can we have any relationship between superiors and subordinates? Even if there is, it must be my respect for you! Since we are all from the army, we don't talk about so many rules. I'm a few years older than you, so you call me big brother, how about I call you a good brother? ”
Of course, Wu Yingxiong is happy to have a relationship with Gao Xianda. It stands to reason that Gao Xianda's position is quite high, and he is a Beijing official, even if he has a friendship with Pingxi Wang Pan, he can also get it. Looking at his full beard, it is estimated that he is indeed not young. He is now arguing with his peers, which can be regarded as elevating himself, and he hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Wu Yingxiong said: "When I was in Yunnan, I heard the name of Mr. Rui's 'Iron Palm Invincible' for a long time, and I admired it very much. When my father talked to everyone, they all praised the emperor for his wisdom and decisiveness, and he was indeed the son of the Holy Heaven, and said that the reign of the Holy Son of Heaven was to let a capable person like you, the eldest brother, who has both ability and political integrity, be in a high position. The father commanded, and the order was prepared to pay tribute to the eldest brother. ”
Gao Xianda knew that Wu Yingxiong would take out gifts to bribe him. He nodded and said, "I'm not busy with gifts, I also have something to give you!" Brother Xian, you are tired of traveling, so you should rest first. I'll order my husband to prepare some wine and food, and I'll come to my big tent in a while to catch you up! ”
"It's okay too!" Wu Yingxiong nodded hurriedly.
The cooking class brought by Gao Xianda this time is also the tip of the Xiao riding camp, specially for the dinner party of Chaerzhu, and Gao Xianda ate very smoothly during several dinners. I think their cooking skills are much better than the chefs in Kaifeng Mansion. Although making bear's paws and deer antlers is not as meticulous as the imperial chefs who are good at cooking northern and southern dishes in the imperial dining room, they still have a lot of taste in making some ordinary meat dishes such as pork ribs and stewed meat, which are loved by soldiers.
Gao Xianda had already ordered it in advance, so it didn't take long for the wine and food to be served.
Because this is a march outside, not in Kaifeng City, it is necessary to arrange patrol rotations.
It was good to say before, but this time he finally received Wu Yingxiong, if he made any mistakes, it would be the responsibility of the Xiaoqi Battalion. So the nerves of the four generals were also tense.
Zhuo Ligetu commanded the whole army in the center, Mo Rigen was in charge of night patrols, and Feiyangu led the men to arrange the living and eating of the generals and entourage brought by Wu Yingxiong this time.
Zhou Peigong was a Han Chinese, well-informed and eloquent, so he allowed him to come over to receive Wu Yingxiong with Gao Xianda.
Wu Yingxiong didn't know Gao Xianda, and he didn't know his temperament. If it was just the two of them eating, I am afraid the atmosphere would be a little awkward. So he also brought some people with him.
The leader is a man in his forties, dressed as a scribe, with an amiable demeanor, and his temperament is somewhat similar to Chen Jinnan. Especially when he is shrewd and introverted, he is also a good martial artist. He was deliberately hiding, but he couldn't hide it from Gao Xianda's eyes.
In addition to him, Wu Yingxiong also stood behind a row of sixteen pro-soldiers. One by one, they looked solemn and stood in a line.
The leader is a big tall man, Gao Xianda guessed that it should be Wu Yingxiong's personal captain Yang Yizhi.
But the strange thing is that in addition to the sixteen neatly dressed personal soldiers, after a short time, another head and an old Taoist came in.
Gao Xianda smiled and said: "Brother Xian is also too cautious, in addition to bringing his own soldiers to protect, he even brought two monks. Don't worry, my barracks are very clean, and I guarantee that there are no demons and evil spirits. ”
Wu Yingxiong knew that he was joking, so he smiled and said, "Come on, come on, I'll introduce you to you." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the middle-aged scribe and said, "This is Mr. Lu, a talented man." ”
Then he pointed to the monk and the old man, and said: "These two are also masters outside the world, not only are they profound, but their martial arts are also very high. This is a rootless Daoist, this is a fat venerable, and he is also quite famous in the rivers and lakes. ”
After listening to the names of these three people, Gao Xianda understood. All three of them are from the Divine Dragon Sect.
I don't know if they are proud of their talents, or if they are bullying Gao Xianda who is not familiar with the plot, and they don't even bother to hide their names.
The Red Dragon Envoy Rootless Daoist, Fat Toutuo, and Lu Gaoxuan are all rare masters in the Divine Dragon Sect. The Rootless Daoist is the highest martial artist among the Five Dragon Envoys, and the other people in the Five Dragon Envoys may not be able to reach the Fat Toutuo and Lu Gaoxuan in terms of martial arts alone. I'm afraid that in addition to the sect leader, their martial arts are high.
These three people went out together, which is enough to see the strength of the lineup. Gao Xianda immediately got in touch.
He once had a fight with Slender Toutuo, but he had a slight advantage. On his own, he couldn't even take down the thin head.
The martial arts of this fat head are on par with the thin head of the mountain, and he is tall and has long arms and infinite strength. Once a person fought alone in the eighteen bronze men of Shaolin Temple, and retreated. The actual combat effectiveness must still be above the thin head.
Lu Gaoxuan was not much weaker than him, and the Rootless Daoist was still above him.
Gao Xianda boasted that in the face of these three people, it would be difficult for him to retreat. Not to mention protecting Wu Yingxiong.
Gao Xianda also laughed twice and said, "Since you like Buddhism and Taoism, it just so happens that I also know some capable people in this area. We'll talk about it this time. ”
After speaking, Gao Xianda gave the order, and it didn't take long for Zeng Leyan and Mei Haidao to enter the house. (To be continued.) )
