Chapter 31: Task 8: Successfully Reaching Jinzhong (4)

"My real name is not Long Xiaoshi, but Shi Xiaolong"

"My hometown is in Yanmen Pass, where there are also places where merchants like Wucheng gather, and Sun Chuanting is a native of Daizhou, and the two families are military households who migrated from him in the early Ming Dynasty, my family is in Yanmen, and his family is Zhenwuwei"

(Zhenwuwei, Daizhou)

"After Sun Chuanting became a Jinshi, his family was unattainable in Daizhou and Zhenwuwei, and my family was still a hundred households in Yanmen."

"Sun Chuanting's ex-wife accepted my sister as a concubine after his death, I was only a few years old at the time, and I went to Daizhou once when I grew up, at that time Sun Chuanting had married Zhang, the daughter of Nanjing's general political envoy, as his stepwife, this woman was extremely arrogant and domineering, and it was not good for my sister, and I naturally did not pretend to be after I went."

"At that time, I happened to enter Daizhou State School, and after reading for a year, I felt that reading was not very useful, and I thought of Zhang's bullying of my sister, so I decided to switch from literature to martial arts.

"And although Wuxue also claims to be a Xiucai, he still has to kneel and salute when he sees the county order, and Sun Chuanting also scolded me when he learned about it, but I insisted on learning martial arts......"

Long 13 interjected: "Do you want to learn martial arts to stand out for your sister, what you think is too simple, only study well in the state, and when you pass the exam, Sun Chuanting will naturally look down on you, and then look down on your sister, if you pass the Jinshi, maybe you will be able to help your sister as a wife."

"But once you enter the martial arts, even if you pass the martial arts examination, you will not enter his eyes."

Long Xiaoshi nodded, "I slowly learned about this section ......"

"No one in your family mentions this?"

"Alas, my parents died early, and I have always followed my uncle's ......"

Long Thirteen can imagine why the young Long Xiaoshi joined the team of thieves, most likely after seeing the handsome and dashing and strong martial arts Wang Fuchen, this Wang Fuchen is a Datong person, it is estimated that he often goes to Taiyuan Mansion through Yanmen Pass, and then knows Long Xiaoshi.

"You changed your name to Long Xiaoshi just because you don't want to cause trouble to the Shi family."

Long Xiaoshi didn't answer, but Long Shisan could guess, "His uncle is obviously not good for his sister and brother, otherwise he wouldn't have married his sister to Sun Chuanting as a concubine, Long Xiaoshi's name change is naturally not for his uncle's family, but because he doesn't want to affect his sister."

After a while, Long Xiaoshi said: "Three masters, although I don't like Sun Chuanting, but I have to admire this person, he is both civil and military, both in the Jinshi, and skilled in bows and horses, and has also instructed me in martial arts, when he is idle at home, he does not read the Four Books and Five Classics, but a variety of art of war, especially Qi Shaobao is highly respected"

"He served as the general practitioner in Wucheng, apparently recommended by the merchants of Jinzhong, who used to start by opening the Chinese law, and then the forces first entered the army, and then through the support of their children to take the exam, Jinshi and then set up with civil officials, as far as I know, their business is all over the grassland, and it is still ......"

Long Thirteen naturally knew what he wanted to say, "Have you already done business in Liaodong?" ”

Long Xiaoshi nodded, "This section, the people of the Three Jin Dynasty know a little bit of knowledge, but these merchants are not just as simple as doing business, the clansmen have power in the army, officials and even internal officials, even if someone sees through this, they will not say it."

"Okay", Long Thirteen interrupted him, "Xiao Shi, although you are young, you are quite knowledgeable, I guess you already have a way in your heart, you might as well say it, I will refer to it together"

Long Xiaoshi hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Three masters, there is only one way at the moment"

"Oh?"

"Pretend to surrender the official army, surrender directly to Sun Chuanting, and then find a way to cross Wucheng and then find a way"

This verse was also expected by Dragon Thirteen.

At this time, the thieves rebelled and surrendered, and surrender was as simple as eating and drinking for them.

At present, he is still just a small minion, and he should not be taken to the capital to be beheaded or executed by Ling Chi, maybe after surrendering to the imperial court, he will be given a thousand general and garrison official positions.

However, the one I chose was the thief simulator at the end of the Ming Dynasty, not the Ming officialdom simulator, which obviously can't be changed, but it's not bad if you have the opportunity to enter Wucheng to investigate.

Then he asked, "Does your sister have any children?" ”

Long Xiaoshi nodded, "It was she who gave birth to her only son for Sun Chuanting, so Dafang didn't dare to bully at will."

Long Thirteen's heart moved, and he said, "Does Sun Chuanting know that you have joined the team of thieves?" ”

"I don't know"

"Okay, you just said that you were coerced by thieves, and I am the subordinate of the third master, and I am escorting you to negotiate with Sun Chuanting"

"Three masters!"

"Don't worry, as long as I can enter Wucheng, I'll be fine, as long as I don't say that I am the third master, after you go, simply say that because you have read books and know a few words, you will be forced to stay in the camp by thieves to manage clerical affairs, and I am your subordinate"

......

Knowing that the three masters wanted to follow Long Xiaoshi to Wucheng to negotiate with Sun Chuanting, almost everyone disagreed, but Long Shisan still insisted on his own opinion and comforted everyone: "Don't worry, I am just pretending to be Xiaoshi's guard, and Sun Chuanting will not harm me."

"Remember, if Cao Wenzhao arrives, you will first throw light arrows to attract them closer, and then change to heavy arrows, if you can inflict a lot of damage on them, our purpose will be achieved."

"I won't be going for too long, I'll be back soon"

......

Sure enough, when Long Xiaoshi and Long Thirteen came to the west gate of Wucheng and said that Sun Chuanting was his brother-in-law, the two were lifted up by a large hanging basket.

At this time, the Jinshi is still very popular, especially the Jinshi who has also been the Jinshi of the Ministry of Officials, although he is temporarily idle at home, but he is still hot (the Ministry of Officials is to manage the officials of the world, and he has a wide range of contacts), and the merchants and generals are respectful to him.

And Long Xiaoshi looked like a young man dressed in white, anyone would think that he was coerced by thieves, not took the initiative to take refuge, as for Long Thirteen, he was naturally completely ignored, but for the sake of Long Xiaoshi's face, no one was embarrassed for him.

On the tower of the city gate, Long 13 saw an extremely tall and sturdy general, about twenty years old, with a face full of flesh, a mountain armor, and a large sword.

"Xu Yanqi, twenty-five years old, Wu Jinshi, from Lingshi County, deputy general practitioner of Wucheng, force value 95, commander value 60 ,......."

As soon as he saw this assignment, Long Thirteen couldn't help but be surprised, he had never heard of this person, but the force value was as high as 95!

Long Thirteen came up this time, he didn't carry any weapons, and he was dressed like a Ming entourage, but Xu Yanqi still searched his whole body, and finally said to Long Xiaoshi: "Xiaoshi, your brother-in-law has been talking about you, saying that you were taken away by thieves, but I didn't expect it to be true!" This thief who kills a thousand knives! ”

Saying that, he glared at Long Thirteen viciously, and Long Xiaoshi hurriedly said: "If it weren't for this Brother Zhang, I would have ...... long ago."

Xu Yanqi's eyes softened a little when he heard this.

"You wait to come with me"

After going down to the city, Long 13 couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, although the army outside the city was pressing, the city was still full of people and traffic, full of shops, warehouses, carriages and horses, and there were men with big waists and round waists standing at the door.

The layout of the city is obviously very different from that of ordinary cities, not the appearance of a cross street, but a small cluster of blocks, scattered with each other, if no one leads it, it is not easy for a newcomer to find a place quickly.

Obviously, such an arrangement was not built all at once, but was slowly expanded and built step by step.

They walked for about a moment, and finally came to a slightly taller building, which turned out to be the bell and drum tower in the city, and the opposite side of the bell and drum tower was the City God Temple, and the Wucheng Inspection Department was in between.

I walked several neighborhoods again, and arrived in front of a house, and at first glance it was a courtyard house built by a wealthy family, with blue bricks and blue tiles, but the plaque on the gate said "Daming Fenzhou Lian General Administration".

It turned out that Wucheng's government office still belonged to Fenzhou, not Yongning Prefecture.

"You!"

Then Xu Yanqi pointed at Long Thirteen and said, "Just wait here!" ”

After speaking, he whispered a few words to the soldiers guarding the door, obviously most of them were "Watch him, don't let him run away" Yunyun, and then took Long Xiaoshi in.

Long 13 stood at the gate and found that there were very few people passing by the door of this mansion, it seemed that as the former official of the Ministry of Inspectors Wupinlang was still quite powerful, or maybe it was the great enemy, Sun Chuanting deliberately did this.

"Sun Chuanting, forty years old, force value 80, commander value 80,......, wisdom value 85"

Since it was within a mile, Long Thirteen could open the simulator to check the assignment of anyone within the range, and when he saw Sun Chuanting's assignment, he couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, it's both civil and military."

However, he quickly dispelled this thought, "I am a thief, he is an official of the imperial court, since ancient times, thieves and officials have not been separated, Lao Tzu must be careful to deal with it."

I don't know how long it took, but a person came out of it, "Zhang San!" ”

Zhang San is the pseudonym of Long Thirteen, and when he heard it, he responded: "I am"

"Come with me"

He followed the man through and to a house.

The house is quite large, it is estimated that the previous owner usually used to meet guests, there is a person sitting on the master's seat, with a long body and a jade body, three long beards, a Chinese face, and bright eyes, and when he looks at the dragon thirteen, there seems to be a fine light emitted inside.

"Bold!"

There was still a person standing behind Sun Chuanting, probably his master, and when he saw a thief, he saw that the Wupin civil official didn't kneel, and immediately shouted.

When Long 13 saw that Long Xiaoshi was not there, he knew that Sun Chuanting wanted to confirm what he said through himself, so he laughed, strode to the first chair on the lower left of Sun Chuanting and sat down.

"I am the Dragon Thirteen"

As soon as these words came out, not only did the master's eyes change greatly, but even Sun Chuanting sat upright.

For a while, he stared at Long Thirteen for a while, and then said, "Sure enough, it's you."

Long Thirteen smiled: "Could it be that I, the third master, also have shadow graphics in the imperial court?" ”

"Not bad", Sun Chuanting, "You are very smart, you know that I have asked Xiao Shi in detail, and you must not be able to hide it, so you have already made up your mind?" ”
