What do you say about Li Gang and Li Xianggong's popularity? He was half-coaxed and half-forced by Zhao Guan's family to return to his hometown, and the Xiliao side was naturally moved to cry bitterly, even on the Datong garrison side, Qu Duan's subordinates also hated to buy a firecracker and go home and quietly put it away.

It is said that since the battle of the deer, Qu Duan has changed a lot of problems, and he rarely offends his colleagues, so he tries to keep his mouth closed. But after he met Li Xianggong, he felt deeply sorry for Hu Xianggong in Yanjing. Back then, in the prison of Naola City, it was too strict for you.

Not to mention anything else, on the question of whether to know the soldiers, Hu Xianggong is much stronger than him Li Xianggong, at least people can listen to different opinions, and constantly improve and learn, which is like the stone in your pit. is obviously a blind command of the military, and I feel that I am always right, thanks to the wisdom of the officials, I will not let you meddle in the military, otherwise Lao Tzu's two or thirty thousand auxiliary soldiers and ten thousand cavalry are not enough for you to send.

And Qu Duan has a temper, no matter what kind of chief minister you are, you should be at the top, and Li Gangqi has to participate in him every time, and the lawsuit between the two has been fought to the front of the palace, which made Zhao Guan's family very depressed. I had to appease Qu Duan on the grounds that Li Gang was old and injured, after all, Li Xianggong was not only a little inferior in military ability, but he still did a good job in mediation. Qu Da, you have to look at the advantages of others. So that most of our Qu people were not depressed, and they rode the third-generation iron elephant with their godson Xiahou Ju all over Datong City. I almost didn't go to the Buddha statue in Yungang Grottoes to worship, bless Li Xianggong with early death and early superbirth, which is good for everyone.

It is said that Datong is the front line after all, and Qu Duan, as a vassal, is not allowed to leave without authorization, so he also brought the family roll here. But everyone in the imperial camp knows that if you accidentally have a conflict with Qu Duan's own son Qu Liang, then most of Qu will laugh at it, but if you bully Xiahou Ju, you just wait.

On this day, Li Gang finally left, Qu Duan only felt that the sky was blue and the water was blue, and he pulled Xiahou Ju as usual, ready to visit Datong City together. Unexpectedly, Xiahou Ju's child was spoiled by him and had a little temper, and actually said: "Father-in-law, the child is eight years old, can you buy me a pony too, I don't want you to hold it all the time." ”

Generally speaking, Qu Duan looked at this face that made him a little stunned, but this time he said with a straight face: "Who did you learn from this little rabbit cub?" I want to run before I know how to walk. Is it so easy to harness a war horse? Lao Tzu has the heart to teach you to ride a horse. Are you Li Shifu? The people on their side can walk and ride horses. ”

Although Xiahou Ju was favored by him, he was not as sensitive as his father's child, and he didn't dare to speak when he heard the grievances, so he was a little soft-hearted, and promised to let him ride a horse alone after he was ten years old, and now let his father-in-law lead him to sit and practice.

In this case, the iron elephant had to be pulled back to the manger to rest. After all, this Mongolian horse is a BMW that Toli bribed him, and the legend says that it has a little blood relationship with the sweat and blood horse. Regardless of whether it is true or not, Qu Duan does admit that this animal is strong and brave. How can it be suitable for children to ride alone, or go to get a bantam horse, teach Xiahou Ju how to get on the horse, pull the reins, and shout, in short, it is called a conscientious.

It's also thanks to his own son not being here, otherwise he wouldn't have been so sad!

Zhang Zhongfu, the commander who had just returned from his errand, saw this pair of father and son who were not related by blood on the main street of Datong, and cried and laughed, "Dutong, how old is this little foal, you have to train him to fight and kill the enemy." ”

Who knew that it was okay not to say this, but as soon as he said it, the curl immediately changed color. Almost roared: "What goes into battle to kill the enemy?" What other enemies does the Great Song Dynasty want their generation to fight? Don't you know that he has a hereditary Marquis of Founding County? After you talk nonsense about killing Xiahou, Lao Tzu will let you raise horses. ”

Qu Duan's big reaction startled everyone, Zhang Zhongfu's younger brother Zhang Zhongyan hurriedly pulled his brother to ask for guilt, seeing that Qu Duan's red face was white and red, as if he was really angry, his personal guard hugged Xiahou Ju, who was already scared, and gently moved back to the house and handed it to Mrs. Qu.

Walking all the way, the guard also sighed, don't look at the words a little mean, he is really a kind person in his heart, his captain Xiahou Yuan died in battle. Not only did he help collect the bones, but he heard that Xiahou Yuan's wife died in childbirth, leaving behind a young child of a few months, and seeing that he was going to be adopted by the Tokyo Huiji Bureau as a martyr's orphan, he rushed back to Tokyo on horseback for five days and five nights, saying that he would also want the child back, for fear that he would be wronged and remembered in his own name and become a godson. In the past few years, he and his wife have really treated this child as their own, giving whatever they want, and later invited the best teachers to educate them.

In all fairness, the marshals are not bad at getting close to the captain, but it is really not easy to do this step.

Qu Duan was angry, and naturally knew that Zhang Tongzhi was joking, so he didn't go too far, but just ordered them to go. Thinking about it, he felt very depressed, and went back to the manger and pulled out the iron elephant that had just eaten and drunk. His heart was so blocked that he didn't want to say hello to anyone, so he let his horse gallop outside the city.

It is said that the thousand-year-old city of Datong, also known as the clouds, since Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, abolished the feudal system, established counties, Datong includes Yanmen County, the land of Dai County. Later, Zulong sent the general Meng Tian to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the Xiongnu in the north, and recruited the people to build the Great Wall. ”

After the Qin and Han dynasties, it has always been the front line against ethnic minorities, the Northern Wei Dynasty was established, and this place (then called Pingcheng) was designated as the capital, only to be vigorously developed, "camp palace room, build a temple, establish a community", and carry out a series of large-scale capital construction.

But that's all in ancient times, that is, Qu Duan, a person who usually likes to read some books, and is known as being able to write and martial arts. There was the Song Dynasty, which was originally the territory of the Liao State, and was later occupied by the Jin, and it was not until the past few years that it returned to the Great Song Dynasty. Because of this, the Hu and Han people in Datong City are mixed, although Ren Baozhong and others tried their best to educate and keep their hair in Hanfu, but in the huge city, you can still see a lot of people of all ethnic groups coming and going from the south to the north, trading back and forth, and the official family has decided to hold the military games again in Datong in the 20th year of Jianyan, presumably at that time. The prosperity here will be taken to the next level.

It's just that many people never have the chance to see all this anymore.

Qu Duan didn't know too many people, but he remembered Zhao Bufan, and even more remembered Xiahou Yuan.

Qu Duan's mind was chaotic, and he didn't look at the distance much, so he went out of the West Gate and ran all the way I don't know how far. Finally, I noticed that the sun had begun to set in the west, and the red glow was reflected in front of the mountain. The Buddha statue seemed to smile at him slightly, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and he suddenly realized that he was actually at the southern foot of Wuzhou Mountain in the western suburbs, that is, where the Buddha statue is.

"One Sword Alone"

At this time, if he didn't want to close the city gate and be locked out of the city for the night, he had to hurry back on horseback, but he didn't know why. Watching the afterglow of the sunset pass over the main cave, the size of the statue did not know Yu Zun, and the stone statue with a kind face actually made this dignified general of the Western Army, who had never believed in ghosts and gods, look a little dazed. I can't take care of it anymore.

He remembered his mouth that did not accumulate virtue, and he annoyed Zhao Bufan when they met for the first time, and later said something "It's okay if you die", as a result. In the end, Zhao Bufan really died for him.

He has been a bent horse for 20 years, and he boasts that he has been delayed by the unsightly waste and unreasonable rules of the country. But in the end, it was the clan waste he despised the most who saved his life.

What kind of face does he have to afford to take the big prize given by the official family: the brave are invincible.

That year, Zhao Bufan's eldest daughter. was verbally promised by the official family to the second son of King Yue Wei. Yue Fei was so big-eyed that he didn't agree, he had to marry a guilty civilian woman in the family. He was so angry that he didn't care about anything, what was difficult to hear, Yue Fei, who had always been good-tempered, almost started with him, and finally under the persuasion of the old lady of King Wei, he turned into a jade silk and recognized this grandson and daughter-in-law. But Qu Duan knew that if Yue Fei really dared not want the girl of the Zhao family. Qu Duan was not afraid of being beaten to death by him.

He owes Zhao Bufan.

As for Xiahou Yuan, who has followed him for more than 20 years, it seems that he has a bit of a life to say that he owes or does not owe. Everything Xiahou Yuan did for him was willing, and everything he did for Xiahou Yuan was also willing. It's only occasionally that when I pass by the places where the singing and dancing of the Tokyo Teaching Workshop Division are complicated, I can't help but stop, looking at the young people with hairpins coming and going, and I will only beat the horses and walk away in the middle of the morning.

The golden crow fell, by the last rays of light. Qu Duan seemed to have that incomparably familiar face in front of his eyes again.

"Xiahou, after all these years, are you happy over there?"
