When Zhao Rushu walked out of the palace, it was almost dark.

The night breeze in the first month of the year, although not as cold as in winter, is also cool.

"Master, you get on the sedan chair, it's getting dark, it's not convenient for you to walk back, right?"

The subordinates on the side have already persuaded Zhao Rushu several times.

Helplessly, my own master, today is like losing his soul, and he is always reluctant to get on the sedan chair.

Just like that, on the street of Lin'an, I want to go home.

After the Great Dynasty meeting, all the courtiers went back, and the people related to the Gangneung battle were busy dealing with their own affairs.

The core personnel of Shi Miyuan's family gathered in his mansion and did not disperse until it was dark.

Zhao Rushu alone was left behind and brought into the "Funing Palace".

Strangely, the official family did not appear.

In the words of the old eunuch, the official family was a little tired after going to court, so he fell asleep first and asked Zhao Shangshu to wait for a while.

Just wait, who makes the family an official.

Tea, snacks, seasonal fruits, and even gave him four dishes and one soup on the table.

waited for three hours, and when Zhao Rushu was really impatient, he was notified that the official family had gotten up and wanted to summon him.

When he came to the imperial study, Zhao Rushu found that the official family was meditating on a futon.

There was also an empty futon next to it, as if it was reserved for himself.

"Sit down, Sixth Brother."

"Sixth brother?" Zhao Rushu shuddered.

This is for no reason, how can the official family call their ranking?

Zhao Rushu is the sixth oldest in the family, and he is the same generation as the official family in terms of generation, but he is two or three years older than Zhao Kuo in terms of age.

However, after so many years, it is the first time that Zhao Rushu has heard that the official family calls himself so.

"Official, the old minister doesn't dare."

"Haha, what's not to dare? There are no monarchs and ministers today, just two of us old brothers of the Zhao family, just chat casually, sit down. ”

The official family is particularly cordial and easy-going, and it is really like chatting about family life.

asked Zhao Rushu about his physical condition, the situation at home, and what the children are doing now?

Later, he even talked to Zhao Ru in detail from beginning to end, discussing the details and procedures of the Lianghu Labor Army.

Are these little things that you, an official, should worry about?

Almost all the whole process was being talked by the officials, and Zhao Rushu was listening.

Zhao Rushu never thought that the official family would care so much about military affairs, and he never thought that the official family would be so talkative.

It wasn't until the old eunuch came in to take charge of the lamp that the official's interest in talking weakened slightly.

In the end, Zhao Rushu left the palace.

But he still didn't understand why he was left behind today.

Or rather, he didn't want to believe his own speculation.

"Sixth brother, you are also a descendant of the Zhao family, if you want, take more care of Mo'er——"

When he was about to go out, the official family suddenly said this clueless sentence, but Zhao Rushu was like a lightning strike.

I don't know which leg I walked on, and I walked out of the main gate of Li.

The night breeze blowing along the way couldn't make Zhao Rushu's heart completely calm down.

"Mer? Is the official family talking about "Guo Mo", or the Seventh Prince who "died" many years ago? ”

"Is this still the official family I know? It turns out that the official family has everything in their hands! ”

Zhao Rushu figured this out and walked quickly towards his mansion.

When he arrived at home, he didn't care about eating, so he went straight to the study and asked his subordinates to call his two sons over.

Zhao Rushu's eldest son, Zhao Chengxian, is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today, and he has the appearance of a middle-aged person.

With him, he found a position as a foreigner in the Criminal Department, although he has no great talent, he is also conscientious in his work.

The youngest son, Zhao Chengyu, is the fourth son of Zhao Rushu, although he was born to a concubine, he is deeply loved by him and has always been by his side.

He is just eighteen years old this year, and he has not yet become a leader, but he loves martial arts, especially bow and horse battles, and dreams

One day, he will be able to cross the horse and fight on the battlefield for the Great Song Dynasty.

"Daddy, you're looking for us?"

By the time the two sons came to the study, Zhao Rushu had already finished writing a letter and encapsulated it.

"Son, there are things that my father has to ask you."

"This time, I was sent by the official family, and my father wanted to go to the front of the Lianghu Army to work in front of the army, and it is estimated that he will leave in two days. Hasn't Yu'er always liked to dance with guns and sticks? This time, let's go with my father, and I can see it in the army. ”

"Great, Daddy, you finally agreed to let me join the army, and you didn't let me participate in the "martial arts" last time. ”

Zhao Chengyu is young in the end, and he is Zhao Rushu's old son, so he is less restrained in front of his father.

"Xian'er, here is a letter from my father, and a month after my father leaves Lin'an, you will personally send this letter to the palace and hand it over to the official family."

"If the official family wants to ask, you only say that you did it for your father, it is entirely because you dote on your youngest son, and you don't worry about letting him stay in the army alone, and you don't know anything else."

"Don't let it know that this letter was given to you in advance by the Father, and when the time comes, say that it has just been received."

Zhao Rushu's words made the two of them confused, but the two didn't dare to continue to ask, so they had to give up their promises and retire first.

......

"Yes, what do you think of today's events?"

It's already the second watch day, and Shi Miyuan's study is still lit.

In the flickering of the candlelight, Shi Miyuan and Xue Ji sat opposite each other, drinking tea slowly.

"I don't know what kind of question you are asking?"

Xue Ji is rarely a little restrained, and in the court today, he made a big mistake and misjudged the reaction of the officials.

"For example, the official family, such as Zhao Rushu, or for example, Guo Mo?"

As always, I held the tea bowl as if I had been using the original one.

"Enxiang, in the old man's opinion, the official family is just a coincidence, pushing the boat along the river, to put it mildly, he is powerless to control, simply the more chaotic the better."

"As for Zhao Rushu, you can rest assured that in the entire Great Song Dynasty, the road for a member of the clan to become an official is the most difficult."

"The promotion of the clan must not pass the attendant", this is already regarded as the law of the ancestors, he should know the situation he is in, and he should not dare to make a mistake."

"And this Guo Mo, although he is indeed an amazing person, no matter what, he is just a chess piece at best. What Enxiang should pay more attention to is His Royal Highness the "Yan King" behind him. ”

""King Yan"? Do you think this person really exists? ”

This topic, they have already discussed more than once.

At the beginning, I felt that it was just a "trick" used by the officials, and it was simply a person who didn't exist.

Later, I slowly thought that this "Yan King" was probably a Song clan member trained by the official family to "share" the pressure for the prince.

And now, His Royal Highness "King Yan" has repeatedly intervened in military affairs, and has successively mobilized the "Dunwu Army", "Zhongshun Army" and other garrisons in Lianghu, especially with this "Dunwu Army" to control Guo Mo, and it seems that he has had too much contact.

"Enxiang, it doesn't matter who the "Yan King" exists, the important thing is that we have enough strength. This "Dunwu Army" is under the control of Guo Mo, and Enxiang must take it. ”

Xue said sincerely.

Guo Mo is not just a person with outstanding martial arts, the last time he came to Shi Miyuan's mansion, the things he said have been verified one by one.

The Jin State had already moved its heavy forces north to guard against the Mongols.

And the Mongols have indeed begun to prepare for an attack on Western Xia, and it is expected that this spring, the Mongol war against Western Xia will be launched.

Jin Guo, who has always had dealings with Shi Miyuan, also revealed his desire to buy food and even weapons and armor from the Great Song Dynasty.

When Shi Miyuan handed the pre-prepared offer to the secretary of the Jin State, he was not rejected by the other party.

Barter, bartering horses for food, and even armor.

The excuse given by the Great Song Dynasty was that the "Luo Ghost Country" in the south had been in turmoil for the past two years, and the Great Song Dynasty urgently needed 30,000 war horses for the Battle of Pingnan.

Of course, 30,000 war horses were just asking for a price, and in the end, the secretary of the Jin State revealed that the war horses could be jointly provided by the Western Xia and the Jin State.

According to the specific situation of the war situation in the north, bartering was also carried out one after another, but the total number would not exceed 15,000 war horses.

This is already very beyond Shi Miyuan's expectations, Lao Xue Ji analyzed, it seems that Jin Guo is really going downhill, and he has already become a strong outsider.

Such an ending not only made them see the opportunity to make a fortune in the northern war, but also felt deeply jealous of Guo Mo's strategic vision.

"Yes, the first batch of war horses of the Jin people is expected to arrive in March, and there are only 1,500 horses. When the time comes, you can take a look at the condition, and if it is not bad, it will be allotted to the "Dunwu Army". ”

"What the official family can give Guo Mo is just an ethereal official position, but what the prime minister can give him is a real battlefield weapon."

"In addition, I ordered our people in Lianghu to let them unconditionally cooperate with Guo Mo's actions in Lianghu, and ask people to give people and things, but also to skillfully let Guo Mo know that it is his true appearance who supports him."

"Hey, Mo Chou, this kid should be chasing Guo Mo, but I don't know what's going on now?"

......

When Shi Miyuan was chattering about Mo Chou in the mansion, she had already left Jiangling City and returned to the ancient tomb that had been away for half a year.

Li Mochou knelt straight in front of the master's bed, and the master lying on the stone bed was seriously injured and could not be treated, and his life was not long in coming.

"Master, they are all ignorant and ignorant, and they stole away from the ancient tomb without permission, please punish the master!"

Looking at the master's appearance, Li Mochou felt very sad in his heart.

Originally, the master was only in his early fifties, and he practiced the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" all year round, which can be regarded as a skill to stay in the face.

But now he looks like an old man in his seventies and eighties, with hair like snow and wrinkles on his face.

"Ahem, don't worry, it's good for you to come back, the master didn't expect to see you again in his lifetime."

Because of forcibly practicing the "Jade Girl Heart Sutra", he went mad and fell into the devil, and he has been bedridden for four or five months.

Perhaps it is because he has not continued to practice the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" in the past few months, and the master's personality and temper are even kinder than ever before, or "have a human touch".

On the side, there was also a little girl with a cup of honey water in her hand, standing there without catching up with Li Mochou's kneeling height.

"Mo Chou, the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" of this sect's Zhen Sect is under the pillow of the teacher, but you must practice cautiously and not be in a hurry. ”

"From now on, you are the third-generation head of the Tomb Sect, you have to take good care of Long'er in the future, she is still a child......"

Li Mochou actually saw a tear flowing out of the corner of his master's eyes.

"Although at the beginning, the teacher didn't want to accept you as a beginner, because your father-in-law was such a person and status, after all, your ancestor also advocated anti-gold back then."

"In the past few months as a teacher, it is rare to be sober for a few months, and many things have been figured out. This tomb sect has been passed into your hands, and some sect rules, you don't see them as suitable, and you can modify them as you want. ”

"There is only one, although our ancient tomb is located in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, but we must have our hearts towards the Great Song Dynasty, and we must not do anything to defect to the enemy and commit treason, otherwise we will not spare you as a teacher under Jiuquan."

"Master—"

The master supported it for another three days, and finally left, and Li Mochou also knelt in front of the bed for three days.

A sect like the ancient tomb does not have any reputation in the rivers and lakes, even if the old head dies and the new head succeeds to the throne, this is a top priority in the rivers and lakes.

And in this ancient tomb, there are no waves.

Li Mochou personally carried the master to the tomb that had been prepared a long time ago.

There are five sarcophagi side by side, and in the first sarcophagus, the burial is Lin Chaoying, the founding patriarch of the ancient tomb school.

Granny Sun opened the second sarcophagus and said in a low voice.

"Girl, leave your master here."

Li Mochou looked at the cold sarcophagus in front of him, put the equally cold master inside, and then closed the sarcophagus.

Then, with Grandma Sun and the little junior sister, I respectfully kowtowed to the master.

"Grandma Sun, you take Long'er out first, I want to accompany the master here more."

Granny Sun looked at Li Mochou in front of her, a little distressed, and felt that this child seemed to have suddenly grown up a lot, and he would no longer be rude and willful in the past.

"Girl, mourn too. Your master has been benevolent all his life, served his master, and passed down the Tomb Sect, so it will depend on you in the future. ”

"This is the general map of the ancient tomb, and your master asked me to give it to you after she leaves."

Granny Sun put a roll of cloth topographic maps beside Li Mochou and left with Long'er.

From this day on, Li Mochou stayed in the tomb.

The master died, and according to the rules of the Tomb Sect, the mortuary should be buried in this stone room.

Li Mochou thought that if he stayed here, he could be regarded as guarding the tomb of his master.

The stone room is quite large, in addition to the placement of five sarcophagi, there is still a square zhang, Li Mochou simply laid a floor here.

On this day, Li Mochou sorted out the master's relics and took out the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra", she also had a long-term admiration for this book's highest martial arts.

"Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" is the ancestor Lin Chaoying to create a special martial art to restrain the Quanzhen School, and the two must practice together to help each other.

The first step of cultivation is to first practice the martial arts of the Ancient Tomb Sect.

The second step of cultivation is to learn the martial arts of the Quanzhen School.

The third step of cultivation is to practice the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra of restraining the martial arts of the Quanzhen School.

After Li Mochou finished reading it, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The martial arts of the Tomb Sect, she can take time to practice, after all, she is now the head of the Tomb Sect, and with the Tomb Map in hand, she can naturally find the stone room where the master practiced.

But where did the martial arts of the Quanzhen Sect begin?

Forget it, after all, it was left by the master, so it should be regarded as a souvenir.

Li Mochou put away the "Jade Girl Heart Sutra", took out the "Cold Ice Palm" he got from Ouyang Ke, and read it carefully.

Because Long'er is still young now, Li Mochou thought that when the year turns, the little girl will be six years old, and then enlighten her to learn martial arts.

The master is gone, and this little junior sister can only teach her like a disciple.

The days in the ancient tomb are boring and boring, but they are also the most tempering of people's temperament.

Li Mochou didn't expect that it would be two years before he stayed in this ancient tomb and went out again.

......

East China Sea, Peach Blossom Island.

The time has come to July, and today is the seventh day of the seventh month of July, "Begging Festival".

Those who came out and went in "Fulongju", and the people were in a hurry.

"Eastern Evil" Huang Yaoshi greeted the guests in the "Ling Qing Pavilion", the tea had been changed several times, but no one took a sip.

The guest arrived yesterday, and Huang Yaoshi greeted him politely, but he couldn't get Feng Heng's good face, and he complained to him vigorously, he shouldn't have let Guo Mo come back at this time.

Tingxiang and Wenfu, the two big girls, also alternately went back and forth between the "Ling Qing Pavilion" and the back house, passing on the latest news.

Early this morning, Huang Rong felt a stomachache and showed signs of giving birth, but fortunately, she invited four stable women to be on standby early.

Feng Heng, Nanqin and Mu Nianci were also greeting in the back house, just because Huang Rong was pregnant with twins, and this was the first child, so it was undoubtedly more difficult to give birth.

A few boys did not practice martial arts today, and under the leadership of Zhang Shijie, they obediently stayed in the "Yuying Hall" one by one.

Even Xiao Yangguo, who was almost two years old, stayed in the "Yuying Hall" with Mu Nianci because Mu Nianci was greeting him in the back house, and was teased by the three senior brothers from time to time.

"Senior brother, do you think that this time the senior mother will give birth to a boy or a girl?"

The eldest Wu Nantian is more than fourteen years old, and in this era, he can go into battle to kill the enemy.

"I heard from my master that my mother is pregnant with twin sons, either two little junior brothers, or two little junior sisters, or just a little junior brother and a little junior sister."

"I still hope that it will be a man and a woman, so that we will have a little younger brother and a little younger sister."

Speaking of the soon-to-be-born child, Zhang Shijie, the elder brother who was originally young and old, inevitably showed a childishness.

"Little junior brother, little junior sister......"

Xiao Yang Guo also followed the coaxing, his little brain was round, but he always liked to ride on Hu Yande's shoulder.

Hu Yande is more than eleven years old this year, two years younger than Zhang Shijie and three years younger than Wu Nantian, but now he is the tallest and the most powerful of the three.

These three apprentices, whether it is Guo Mo or Huang Rong, did not limit their development direction, but paid attention to their own hobbies and specialties.

Zhang Shijie has both civil and military skills, loves the art of war the most, internal strength is the foundation of the Quanzhen Sect, a set of "Yang family marksmanship" is also practiced, and the best fire should be the set of "Luoying Sword".

Wu Nantian is more like a Jianghu person's style, palm technique, swordsmanship, and light skills are his favorites, and Guo Mo's "Sunrise and Sunset Palm" is the best practice among the three.

Huyande is different, the family heirloom "Huyan marksmanship", plus the "Yang family marksmanship", the bow horse riding is the strongest among the three.

He is the latest to cultivate internal strength, but he is the fastest to enter the realm, he is different from the previous two, and he directly cultivates the "Seven Styles of the Great Desert" handed down by Ke Zhenxi.

Compared with when I first apprenticed in November last year, more than half a year has passed, and Huyande's "Seven Styles of the Desert" has been practiced to the third layer of "White Sun and Yellow Sand".

"Born, born—"

Hearing the shouts of a maid, she ran from the back house to "Ling Qingge" to report the news.

The little brother couldn't sit still, got out of the "Yuying Hall", and also ran to the courtyard on the first floor, Xiao Yangguo sat on Hu Yande's shoulder, enjoying the feeling of galloping.

The "Eastern Evil" Huang Yaoshi, and the guests in the "Ling Qing Pavilion" also heard the shouts.

Hurriedly stood up, and as soon as he reached the door, Tingxiang ran in.

"Master Qiyu, the girl was born, the mother and child are safe, and it is a dragon and phoenix fetus of a man and a woman."

"Hahaha - reward, all rewards, old goods, people in "Fulongju" today, each person will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver tickets, and those who see it will have a share. ”

Before Huang Yaoshi could speak, the guests who came here were noisy.

"East Evil" didn't bother to bother with him, anyway, he was happy, whatever he wanted.

"Tingxiang, can I go see the child now?" Huang Yaoshi asked.

"I'm going to wait a quarter of an hour, I'm cleaning the kids."

Seeing the ecstatic guests and the pretending to be calm "East Evil", Tingxiang couldn't help but be a little funny.

"Little junior brother or little junior sister?"

A few boys also ran in, and when they saw that the "Eastern Evil" Huang Yaoshi was there, they hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"Are these Mer'er's apprentices?" The guest who came asked Huang Yaoshi.

"East Evil" smiled and nodded.

"Haha, yes, they're all pretty good kids. Old goods, these four children, each a thousand taels. ”

Okay, the dignified official family of the Song Dynasty came to "Peach Blossom Island" today to be a fortune boy.

"This old man, the master said, "No merit is not rewarded", the old man's gift is too heavy, and my brothers dare not accept it. ”

Zhang Shijie has never seen the official family, and strangers will give 1,000 taels as soon as they meet, and all four of them will give it, he, as a senior brother, of course he has to come out to show his attitude.

"Haha-Shijie, this is not an outsider, you have to call "Master". If he is willing to give, take it. ”

Seeing that the child did not accept it, the official family had no choice but to ask Huang Yaoshi for help with his eyes.

With this opportunity to show his "status," the "Eastern Evil" is naturally willing to show off.

Zhang Shijie had no choice but to accept four thousand taels of silver tickets on behalf of everyone, so much silver, and thought about going back to Shiniang.

The crowd did not delay any longer, and the group walked towards the back house.

When they arrived at the back house, the two children had been cleaned and wrapped in a thin swaddling cloth, and Nanqin and Mu Nianci were holding one by one.

"Let me hug me, my grandson, my granddaughter—"

As soon as the official family entered the living room of the back house, they rushed forward first, and they didn't care whether their identities were exposed, so they directly called "grandson, granddaughter".

The official family has had so many children, except for Guo Mo, none of them are adults, and these two children made him a grandfather for the first time.

One left and one right each holding a swaddling cloth, look at this, look at that, the tears of the official family can't help but stay.

"I'm going to give my child a name, what's the name?"

Well, the official family's love of choosing names has been committed again.

"Hehe, you're pretty fast, let me hold one too."

"Eastern Evil" Huang Yaoshi rushed over and stepped forward to separate a child.

"Did you pick a name?" Another naming enthusiast?

"Master, the little junior sister said that the boy's name was left to Brother Guo to choose, and the girl's little junior sister has already named it "Guo Xiang". ”

Because, Brother Guo is really taking the "Dunwu Army" to fight against the Jin people in Xiangyang, and named it "Xiang", which is also to commemorate it. ”

Nanqin replied from the side.

It turned out that the parents of other people's children had already finished the division of labor in the matter of choosing names, and the two old men were sour in their hearts.

"The word "Xiang" is good. Then this boy, I named him "King Xiang", and the girl was named "Princess Xiangyang". Hahaha-"

The official family finally won back a game in terms of "face".

The "Peach Blossom Island" was celebrated and lively, Guo Mo, who was thousands of miles away, didn't know that he had an extra pair of children.

When he heard that his daughter's name was "Guo Xiang", he didn't know how he would feel?
