Jia Yang said with a salute: "Brother Zhu doesn't say, I also want to ask you for one thing, seeing that it is getting late, I don't see the inn here, and I want to ask for a night in the house." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Ouch, no problem, don't say one night, you can stay as many nights as you want, please, Brother Zhang." Zhu Maichen said and came over and pulled Zhang Jiayang's horse reins into the alley.

Turning left and right, he finally came to a dilapidated thatched house, Zhu Maichen tied his horse to a wooden stake in front of the thatched house and said: "Brother Zhang, don't dislike my brother's dilapidated house, it's no problem to shelter from the wind and rain." ”

"There, there. Zhang Jiayang smiled and followed Zhu Maichen into the room, there was a bed against the wall in the room, there was a broken coffee table at the entrance, and a straw mat was spread underneath, but there were bundles of slabs piled up on the straw mat, and there was nothing else.

Zhu Maichen smiled awkwardly: "Brother Zhang, please rest here for a while, and Brother Foolish will go and pour water for his brother." ”

Zhu Maichen ran to the outside of the courtyard, took firewood and boiled water, and after a while, a bowl of hot water was presented to Jiayang, Zhang Jiayang took it very gratefully, and then asked, "Where did my sister-in-law go?"

Zhu Maichen blushed and said, "Hey, don't mention it, you only left me in the morning." ”

"Oh, Brother Zhu is such a loyal and honest person, why would my sister-in-law be willing to leave?"

"Alas, after more than twenty years with me, and after more than twenty years of sin, they have not seen me rich or rich, and they no longer listen to me, so they left in anger. ”

"It made Brother Zhu distressed. Zhang Jiayang looked at Zhu Maichen, who was slightly regretful, and hurriedly comforted.

Zhu Maichen turned to smile and said: "Hahaha, Brother Xie Zhang comforts, he has Lingyunzhi, how can he be painful, if the wind rises, he will look at the common people in nine days, but the time to realize his ambition has not yet arrived." ”

"Good ambition, brother admires. Zhang Jiayang continued, "Brother Zhu is ambitious for nine days, why don't you go to the capital to have a while?"

When Zhang Jiayang mentioned this, Zhu Maichen couldn't help but sigh and said: "Hey, I used to have my mother-in-law by my side, I couldn't get out, and I was powerless. ”

"Oh, then Brother Zhu should leave early, so as to realize Lingyun's ambition as soon as possible. ”

"Hehe, the hexagram says that I will be rich and noble at forty, and the foolish brother has been reading "Spring and Autumn" and "Chu Ci" for decades, and he is not worried that his ambition will not be realized. Zhu Maichen pointed to the slab on the mat and said.

When Zhang Jiayang heard this, he had already realized that poverty can make a talented man with high ambitions bend his waist, and after a little thought, he said: "Brother Zhu's ambition, brother admires, my current brother writes you a plan, you can go to Chang'an to find him, he will definitely be able to wish you a helping hand." ”

Who did Zhang Jiayang think of at this time, it is Yan Zhu, the doctor among the celebrities around Liu Che recently, Yan Zhu is also a literati who reads scriptures intensively, and his hometown is also a Wu person from Huiji County, plus he and he have been here together to transfer troops to aid Dongou Kingdom, and there is a certain friendship, I believe that Yan Zhu will definitely help recommend to Liu Che when he sees Zhu Maichen, why does Zhang Jiayang not recommend Zhu Maichen to Liu Che, Jiayang feels that this time he came back, and his matter of finding Xiao Zhuge occupied the official affairs ordered by Liu Che, and some places have made Liu Che dissatisfied, plus Liu Che is gradually becoming an adult, his mind is mature, and his thoughts are very different from before, I am afraid that I will fall into the whirlpool of power and be in trouble, I can't even go back to the ancient city, I'm sorry for the parents and family of the ancient city, so Zhang Jiayang engraved it on the board: "Doctor Zhong, this brother and a minister went to visit, familiar with the scriptures, only eight buckets, with the ambition to serve the country, I hope to receive and recommend it." Zhang Jiayang. ”

Zhu Maichen got the board written by Zhang Jiayang, and when he saw that he was a doctor at the beginning, Jiayang's position or power should not be small, so he immediately knelt down and said: "Could it be that Brother Zhang is an official from the capital, please accept the buyer's worship." ”

Zhang Jiayang hurriedly pulled Zhu Maichen up and said: "Brother Zhu is polite, where am I an official, I am just a person who listens to the envoy by the emperor's side, the doctor I introduced to you is called Yan Zhu, is your fellow countryman, the red man around the emperor, he will definitely recommend it to the emperor, if the emperor appreciates his brother, then he will be glorious and rich, and his brother's lofty ambition can be realized." ”

"Maichen is grateful," Zhu Maichen hurriedly walked out of the door, brought two bowls of porridge, put them on the case, and then said, "Brother Zhang, wait a minute, I'll come when I go." ”

After a while, Zhu Maichen used the three pennies from the sale of firewood to buy a few taels of rice wine, and said to Jia Yang: "Let my brother go hungry, this is all my Zhu Maichen's food." ”

Jiayang looked at the porridge that could shine on the human figure, and instantly felt the difficulty of the life of the people in this mountainous area, Zhu Maichen saw Zhang Jiayang's expression, and quickly explained: "Brother Zhang, don't misunderstand, in this small village, the foolish brother is the poorest, alas, there is no way, go and chop wood desperately, there is no time to read the board, and the mother-in-law left me after reading the board, life is a mixture of contradictions." ”

Zhang Jiayang held Zhu Maichen's hand and said: "Thank you for taking out all your belongings to entertain me, come, my brother will borrow flowers to offer Buddha to Brother Zhu." As he spoke, he took a sip of wine.

Zhu Maichen also smiled and said, "Come, brother, drink up." "I drank like this for most of the night.

After a night of silence, the next day, Zhang Jiayang wanted to continue to go south, and took out some broken silver from his pocket and handed it to Zhu Maichen: "I hope that Brother Zhu will go north as soon as possible to realize his ambitions." ”

Zhu Maichen dragged and took the broken silver and replied excitedly: "Brother Xie." ”

Put down Zhu Maichen for the time being, and said that Zhang Jiayang stepped on the horse and continued to march south, and soon walked to the capital of Minyue Yecheng, at this time Yecheng has been much more prosperous than half a year ago, so he went straight to the familiar inn, and as soon as he entered the door, Xiao Er went out to greet him.

"Guest officer, please ...... inside" Xiao Er stammered before he finished speaking, "Official, are you the official who lived here years ago?"

At this time, Zhang Jiayang recognized that this was the second child who was arrested by the King of Minyue to be a soldier together, so he asked happily: "You came back safely, it's really not easy." ”

"Hey, don't say it, if I hadn't run fast, I would have confessed to the place in Dongou a long time ago, sir, look. Saying that, Xiao Er showed his chest to Jia Yang to show his knife wound, "If it weren't for the arrival of Han reinforcements and the king's order to withdraw, we don't know if we would have met again." ”

"Hehe, these are all blessed by God. Jia Yang said, and asked urgently, "Xiao Er, is your shopkeeper here?"

"Looking for our shopkeeper, sir, wait a minute, I'll call you." Then let Zhang Jiayang go to a private seat.

After a while, the shopkeeper walked out and was very surprised to see Jiayang

"Ouch, the official is back," the shopkeeper said to Xiao Er, "Serve tea, I said Xiao Er, you have to thank this official more." ”

"Yes, the shopkeeper is right. ”

Zhang Jiayang was puzzled: "The shopkeeper has seen the outside, my Jiayang has not helped much, but you have helped me a lot to take care of my brother Xiao Zhuge , I should be thanked." ”

"What the official said, if you hadn't stopped the war between Minyue and Don'ou, this little two would probably have been handed over to the battlefield, and presumably the reinforcements must have been transferred after you notified the big han, so you are the savior of this little two. ”

"The shopkeeper is out," Zhang Jiayang continued, "My brother Xiao Zhuge is okay now?"

"After the official left for half a month, he saw the Jianghu warlock, so he asked him to diagnose and treat, the Jianghu warlock was diagnosed and said that due to Xiao Zhuge poisoning for a long time, his current herbs can not remove the toxins in time, if he is willing, let him take people to the East China Sea Daiyun Mountain, take medicine and cultivate for a year or two, after absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will be cured, I think it is impossible for me to be good here, let him take it away Maybe the disease will be good, so I agreed, please forgive the official for making the decision of the little one. ”

"Oh, the shopkeeper's kindness, you are also good for Xiao Zhuge . ”

"Sir, tell you another piece of news, after the end of the war, a woman came to the inn, as if she had received news from there, and asked me if anyone like you had ever stayed in the hotel, and then asked if I had seen a fool, and I pretended not to know, but who knew that the seller outside the inn did not know what was at stake, so he told her that there was a fool who had stayed in the inn and was taken away by the charlatan, and maybe the woman went to find it. The shopkeeper continued.

"Woman, looking for Xiao Zhuge is none other than her. Zhang Jiayang thought about it, and when he didn't think about it, he hurriedly asked, "Where is Dai Yunshan, I want to go to my brother immediately." ”

"The highest peak on the edge of the East China Sea, according to which it is three hundred miles to the southwest. The shopkeeper said.

"Okay, I'll go to Daiyun Mountain. Zhang Jiayang said that he was about to go out.

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Official, you have eaten and drunk enough to rest for one night before leaving, and it will not be bad to go to the vast mountains for a while." ”

"Oh, thank you shopkeeper, it's not the charlatans who are in danger, it's the woman you saw, I must find my brother as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more than auspicious if it goes on like this." ”

"Oh, sir, you are in a hurry, by the way, I will tell you, here is already the boundary of the King of Minyue to the north and south, including the territory of Dongou Kingdom is also occupied by the King of Minyue, so pay attention to safety on the road. The shopkeeper kept reminding as he walked. ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper. ”

"Wait, sir, bring these things with you. Xiao Er took out a bamboo basket of steamed buns and dishes from the inn and chased them out, handed them to Jia Yang and said, "These are all cooked by the kitchen master, enough for the official to eat for two days, please take care all the way." ”

"Take care. Zhang Jiayang then hung the bamboo basket on the horse's back, and then jumped on the horse and hurried away, really for his brother's adventure, and his soul was also willing.
