In this "Weifu Private Visit", Jiang Quanliang chose to keep a low profile, only brought six guards with him, sat in the carriage by himself, and walked out of Cangyang City unhurriedly.

From the capital to Hetai City, the capital of Qizhou, along the post road to pass through Renzhou and Changzhou respectively, and then pass through the Fenglin Pass, after turning over Niuyang Mountain, it is considered to enter the boundary of Qizhou.

When passing through Renzhou, Jiang Quanliang except for taking people to rest and change horses, he hurried almost day and night, and even did not stop for the New Year. But after entering Changzhou, he began to become more leisurely, and every time he went to a city, he would stay for two days, not to alarm the local officials, but to choose to have a good time in the restaurant and Xiangge.

On the last night in Changzhou, Jiang Quanliang made a temporary decision, did not go to the restaurant, nor did he go to the incense pavilions in the ordinary alleys, but took a few subordinates to the Fengxiao Pavilion with excellent garden scenery in the city to "be happy".

The group of people, dressed like literati, but when they just entered the garden, Jiang Quanliang quietly handed over a penny of gold for the garden fee, so a woman in her forties greeted her in person.

"Childe looked at Mian Sheng, I think it's the first time I've come to our Fengxiao Pavilion, right?" The owner of the garden looked at everyone, especially the kind of nobility exuded by Jiang Quanliang, which made her feel that this person was by no means simple.

"I'm coming from Renzhou, going to Qizhou to do something, passing by here, I heard from my friends that your Fengxiao Pavilion is unique, so I have nothing to do, so I brought a few friends to have a good time."

"Son, are you here to enjoy the scenery, or to drink?"

"Take a look at the scenery first, then have a little wine, and finally, huh? Of course, you have to paddle! Jiang Quanliang waved his hands and smiled at the woman.

The owner of the garden smiled with his eyes, and knew the meaning of the strings, since he had the right code, presumably these people were not the first time to come to this kind of place.

"Oh, I guess we will be satisfied with Childe here, does Childe want to hold flowers or step on grass and go rowing?"

"Alas, don't be in a hurry, let's go to a bar first, I just arrived, I also want to make a few friends, and I can communicate with each other in the future, is it easy to walk with more friends." Jiang Quanliang looked embarrassed.

The owner of the garden smiled, probably guessed, it may be the kind of family that has also been Tengda, and then the family is not so solid children, but good face, this kind of guest, I have seen too much, visiting the Xiangge is fake, Panpan relationship hopes that the Zhongxing family is real, after all, not everyone can spend a lot of money in this kind of place.

The owner of the garden did not snub the other party in the slightest, still with a smile on his face, and led a few people through the corridor and pavilion, and then led to a hall full of guests.

After thanking the owner of the garden and handing her a penny of gold again, they chose a corner to sit on the futon, watching the girls in the hall sing and dance, and listening to the sound of the guests talking to each other.

"Yan Gongzi, I heard that the situation in Qizhou is not very good, and your father's goods have been robbed by the people of Shiguo?"

"Alas, don't mention it. In the past, it was enough to give a little toll, but now that it can only enter and not go out, the family is ready to give up the business over there. ”

"Didn't you say that the eldest prince was on the side of Qizhou, and your father didn't look for anyone around him?"

"Hmph, what a big prince, the big yellow dog is almost the same, the people of Shi Guo are about to stick their butts to his city gate, but he strictly ordered Jiang Guoren not to be allowed to do anything, whether they sit or not, they are all locked up in the prison cell."

"No, I heard before that this eldest prince is also a great prince, and he almost destroyed the Hazel Kingdom in the northwest, and even drove the emperor to the Haotang Kingdom, he is the best choice for the future prince."

"It's all fart, you've heard about it, okay, don't talk about these bad things, as long as the people of Shiguo don't hit this Changzhou, should we drink or drink, come, drink, drink!"

"Lord Lin, congratulations."

"Hey, Brother Wang, what congratulations are there?"

"The chaotic people over there in Huitou Town, it only took you less than a day to settle all of them, and even the state pastor was kept in the dark, thinking that he was a spy of the Shi Kingdom who entered Changzhou. With this military exploit, I can't congratulate Lord Lin on his promotion in the future? ”

"Haha, it's just because after the New Year, let them pay a few more stones of food, this group of butterflies will dare to rebel, and it's not a pity to die."

"By the way, Lord Lin, have you heard? Over there in Huanxinzhen? ”

"Well, what's the matter, please give me advice from Brother Wang."

"Can't you, Lord Lin, you're in the state capital, you don't even know about such a big thing?"

"I'm older, and a lot of official duties have been handed over to the boss of my family. Brother Wang, just say, where is Huanxin Town, and what happened? ”

The royal brother looked around, approached Lord Lin's ear, and whispered: "King Li's pro-army, on the first day of the first lunar month, in Bozhou, Rouzhou and Qizhou, a town at the junction of the three states, Huanxin Town, was completely wiped out. ”

"Huh?" Lord Lin couldn't help but throw away the wine glass in his hand in fright, looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to his side, and he was stupid and forced to calm down.

"Brother Wang, how did you learn about such secrets?"

"Lord Lin drank too much, it's really a noble person who forgets things, my brother-in-law, isn't he a personal guard by the side of the state pastor, he told me after I got drunk on the wine table on the third day of junior high school."

"Who else knows?"

"The gang of people who are in the army, I guess they all know, and you civil officials don't know, even if you know, what can you do, Lord Lin, can you still mention the 'spear' now, huh?" Brother Wang looked under Lord Lin's seat and smiled obscenely.

"You, you, what a fucking nasty!" Lord Lin pointed at this royal brother.

"Haha, come, Lord Lin, drink, drink!"

Just as the two were talking, the guards selected important information through lip talk, and kept passing it from behind to Jiang Quanliang, who was sitting in the corner not far away.

After Jiang Quanliang heard the whispers of the two, his shock was no less than that of Lord Lin. The third uncle's Jin Feng Army was actually wiped out? Then, Jiang Quanliang laughed again, look at how your old boy will jump in the future, his left arm has been cut off, and the remaining right arm Xuanhe Jun, sooner or later, I will shovel it for you.

For the sake of you being brothers, my father has been tolerating you, and even let you encroach on the pro-army that has two heavy money, and also arranged you to go to Joulzhou to guard against Shiguo, so as to deal with Qizhou and Changzhou in the future.

Jiang Quanliang thought about it, Jiang Guo seems to be safe and stable on the surface, and he is peaceful, even if he doesn't talk about the external troubles on both sides of Gao Guo and Shi Guo, the inside has actually begun to show signs of corruption, if it is not curbed in time, it will be a big trouble in the future, not to mention, there are still those miraculous things now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is precarious.

Since the eldest brother was still safe and sound in Qizhou, Jiang Quanliang temporarily changed his decision, and went directly south to Jozhou, and personally went to that Huanxin Town to see what kind of moth his old baby Uncle Sanhuang could make.

Entering the territory of Jozhou, during the private visit to Weifu, it was completely different from what Jiang Quanliang imagined, and the Johor under the rule of King Jiang Mingchen was much better than Changzhou, Renzhou, and even Bozhou. The people live and work in peace and contentment, have enough food and clothing, the officialdom is honest and honest, and the deacons are impartial, and it can even be said that they can talk to anyone casually, and they all praise this powerful king, and the people do not hesitate to admire and be grateful.

This is completely two extremes from what the third uncle did in his impression, but after thinking about it, Jiang Quanliang understood, hum, old boy, he also understands the truth that water can carry boats, and knows how to buy the hearts of the people.

However, Jiang Quanliang still smelled a trace of uneasiness, the most obvious thing was that the closer he got to that Huanxin Town, the more careful the guests in the restaurant became, and many Fengxiao Pavilions in the city were also sealed.

Jiang Quanliang sat in the carriage and carefully reviewed it, if he was the third uncle, the Jinfeng Army that he worked so hard to build, was destroyed, and then he was so honest, what would he do if he was replaced? No, I want to return to Cangyang City immediately, forget it, let's let this old boy toss, hehe, since I guessed your next move, it is to occupy the corners, then let you occupy it, but I have to "help" my uncle to play this scene, so I immediately wrote a secret letter and quickly sent it back to Cangyang City.

Sure enough, as Jiang Quanliang expected, after more than 20 years, Jiang Mingchen actually went to Cangyang City in person, met the emperor, staged a bitter trick, and easily achieved his goal.

With the acceptance of two children by Youyou, as Chestnut's apprentice, in fact, other children can still "steal teachers to learn art" in Zhuofu, but Chestnut is only a nominal master, a real master, or Youyou who takes the initiative to take care of things.

One is the chestnut, really can't teach the children anything, and then the chestnut has no time, he has to talk to Mr., that is, the old state pastor Zhou Zaiying, learn things other than books, whether it is considered to pull out the seedlings or not, in short, you hope that the chestnuts can grow up quickly and "mature" as soon as possible.

The most obvious change is that chestnuts used to be more "playful" as the focus, but when they get out of school, they will wander around, but as time goes by, maybe it is "education meritorious"", chestnuts slowly began to take the initiative to help Yoyo do some housework, and no matter what Mr. said "gentleman is far away from cooking", he will learn from Yoyo, cook a few home-cooked dishes, and take the initiative to scrub the dishes and chopsticks after meals.

Yoyo quipped, "Chestnut, don't you listen to what Mr. says?" ”

"Sister, what Mr. said and taught, must be right, that's why there is that sentence 'think carefully, discern, and practice', I think the so-called gentleman is to start from being close to the people around him and treating the people around him well, otherwise he will ignore his family regardless of his love and answer, and he will be enthusiastic about the living, is that a gentleman?"

"Yo, the chestnuts have grown up, and I don't know whose girl will be blessed to be your daughter-in-law in the future."

Chestnut used to listen to Yoyo joke like this, but he didn't understand it, but now he was a little confused, and then he didn't speak, just helped Yoyo to start.

Every night, Youyou will sleep with Zhuo Youtong in his arms, and he will sleep with those children.

In the first class, Yoyo asked the children, what is the purpose of practicing martial arts? Children, some say that they are better than others, some say that they look majestic, and some say that they are required by the head of the family.

Yoyo smiled and watched them chirp all kinds of answers, then stood up and solemnly said to the children: "Practicing martial arts is to protect the people we care about the most!" ”

After that, before the morning class, Chestnut helped Yoyo finish cooking, sat on the steps, with his hands on his head, watching her coach these little guys, and then waited for the husband to finish the class with the children, after lunch, continued to read and write, and in the evening, continued to study the natural scriptures taught to him by Yoyo, and before going to bed, he would meditate according to the routine.

On the fifteenth Shangyuan Festival, Baili Gong specially visited Zhuo's Mansion and invited Chestnut and Youyou to Baili's house as guests. During the banquet, Baili Gong arranged the chestnuts and Youyou in the main seat, and took the lead in getting up and carrying the cup, and once again with the family, thanking the chestnuts for saving the family.

Just when everyone was enjoying this rare reunion atmosphere, a group of uninvited guests came without telling them, and one of them was high-crowned and straight to the point, and asked: "Who is Baili Gong?" ”

Baili Gong got up and answered, I am. Since they didn't receive the notification in advance, and the Deadpools didn't send a signal, presumably these people are not good.

"Someone, take it for me." Then, beside Baili Gong, two black-clothed people wearing masks suddenly appeared and walked straight towards Baili Gong.

The chestnut got up and made a gesture to go up to relieve the siege.

"Don't move, contemptible for the emperor's His Majesty the order of Huanxin County, and under the jurisdiction of Joulzhou. The entire clan of Baili, the people of the Zhou Mansion, etc., were all detained immediately, and they were all detained for the crime of treason, and they were beheaded on a certain day. After finishing speaking, in the garden, several groups of heavily armed gold-armored soldiers rushed out, the style of battle armor was obviously different from the last time, wearing face armor and swallowing dragon claws on their shoulders.

"Wait!"

At this time, Jiang Quanliang, who was panting, also appeared on the stage "shining", wearing a purple-black battle armor that only the prince could wear, leading six people and appearing in the courtyard.

When the "county order" saw the visitor, he looked incredulous, and after confirming that it was correct, he had to bow his head and say: "The history of the assassin in Joulzhou, Pan Yantang has seen King Xuan!" ”

Jiang Quanliang hurriedly relieved himself twice, and didn't pay attention to Pan Yantang, who had been stabbing history for a while, just walked slowly to the banquet, casually picked up a pot of wine on the table, and then poured himself a glass and drank it in one gulp, "Wow! Cool, I'm tired of the master, but fortunately I caught up. ”

Jiang Quanliang had already seen the chestnut, and after being slightly stunned, he immediately gave him a look, seeing that he didn't understand, he looked at the "beauty" snuggled in the chestnut's arms, the other party was very smart, and he quickly understood, nodded at him, and then Jiang Quanliang walked into the banquet, sat next to the chestnut, and was ready to start acting.

"You, what kind of pond, why don't you kneel when you see me?"

"Lord Wang, the official will act according to the order, according to the Jiang dynasty, it is possible not to kneel."

"Oh, is my third uncle okay?"

"Back to the prince, King Li is in good health and still has the same demeanor."

"If I say, for my sake, you all go back to your own house tonight, isn't it?"

"Forgive the officials for not being like this, it is the will of His Majesty the Emperor to come to clean up the chaotic people this time, and please don't embarrass the officials."

"What about the Divine Decree?"

"......Hiccup" At this time, after eating chestnuts for a long time, he didn't look at the two sides, he just ate by himself, looked at the posture, and a table of dishes, and he was about to be liquidated by him for a long time.

For any request from his younger brother, Jiang Mingqi will never follow those red tapes, and every time he agrees verbally, which also makes a loophole for Jiang Mingchen to act arrogantly, Jiang Mingqi is not unaware, as long as he does not break his bottom line, he will do it.

The emperor did personally agree to go against the ancestral precedent without hesitation, just to enter Beijing to "see" his third brother. Jiang Mingchen, from beginning to end of the courtiers' ceremony, from the beginning of recalling the childhood of the two, and then in front of the queen mother, grabbed the hands of the brothers, and told the two to love each other and support each other in the future, and then went to his own town to guard Rouzhou, and worked willingly for the royal brother day and night, and finally burst into tears, denouncing the chaotic people of the poor mountains and bad waters, and actually defying the majesty of the royal family and attacking the prince's guards, which is simply unforgivable.

What else can Jiang Mingqi do, especially when he moves out of the queen mother. Jiang Mingchen also proposed that he was willing to share the emperor's worries, and intended to send several sons to Renzhou and Changzhou respectively, on the one hand, to appease the victims and ensure the autumn harvest, prepare sufficient grain and grass, and on the other hand to assist in the defense and aid of Qizhou.

Jiang Mingqi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, this third brother wants to wrap himself up.

If you really share your worries, why don't you send your three precious sons to Bozhou, which is at war with Gaoguo, or Qizhou, where Quan Yi is located?

Although the Hazel Kingdom and the Lao Kingdom have always been unsettled, they are not enough to send the royal family to guard the town, and at most they can do it in person. That Changzhou, which is the closest to your Johor state, naturally secretly makes some moves, which is also very convenient.

The emperor did not agree immediately, only said that it was rare to meet the third brother, and the journey was tiring, so he would rest first, and he would definitely consider this matter carefully and give the third brother a satisfactory answer.

"Why, without a holy decree, you dare to make an edict, Pan Tingshi, do you also want to sit in my father's place?" Jiang Quanliang said playfully.

As soon as these words came out, Lord Thorn Shi was directly frightened and knelt down, "Don't dare!" ”

"Well, you may not dare, but my third uncle never wanted to turn the emperor's brother into an emperor!"

Pan Yantang didn't dare to speak at this time.

"You, with your pups, get out of here, stain my eyes. Go back and tell my third uncle that in a few days, my little nephew will definitely visit him in person and congratulate his old man on his birthday. ”

After hearing this, Pan Yantang hurriedly left the place with his subordinates.

Jiang Quanliang poured another glass of wine, alas, bitter. This is even if he and the third uncle officially tore his face, this is many years earlier than his original plan, what to do next, I have to think about it.

"Come, come, everyone get up, all sit, you're welcome, it's your own home."

The chestnuts were eating in full swing, and at this time, the people of the Baili family all looked at the chestnuts, and dragged him leisurely, and the chestnuts looked up and said, everyone eats, what are you doing kneeling, and you are going to get up and help the people next to you.

The people of the Baili family got up and sat down again, but no one was in the mood to move the chopsticks.

"Little brother, we meet again, are we surprised, surprised?" Jiang Quanliang stretched out his hand and patted the chestnut's shoulder, I haven't seen him for a few months, the little cub has grown up again, this muscle mass, and the clapping hand hurts.

"Captain Hong, have you seen my Brother Liang, is he okay?"

"Okay, it's very good, now it's getting mixed up, with Zhu ...... With my subordinate right-hand man, Wen Duwei, I am killing chickens and dogs in Gaoguo. ”

"Hey, hey!" Chestnuts are happy from the bottom of my heart, Brother Liang is Brother Liang, and he deserves to be his own idol.

Jiang Quanliang stretched out his hand and was about to touch the chestnut's head, but he dodged it, "Captain Hong, please be respectful, Mr. said, the man's head can't be touched." ”

"Oh, stinky boy, I've really grown up, and I won't be impressed for a day."

The conversation between Chestnut and Jiang Quanliang was seen by everyone, and the tense atmosphere before finally disappeared.

After the banquet was dismissed, only chestnuts, Youyou, Jiang Quanliang and Baili Gong were left at the main table.

Jiang Quanliang picked up those who could talk about it, how did he know the chestnuts, what kind of friendship he had, who he was, and when he went south to Huanxin Town this time, he told Baili Gong, and at the same time, he also asked about the process of the relationship between the Baili family and King Li, after all, what he inquired on the road would be different from what the parties said. Baili Gong, 1510 said the whole thing, and then hoped that the little prince could also take care of the next Zhou family, Jiang Quanliang said that he should be, after all, his eldest brother is still in Qizhou.

Then, several people discussed for a night, which not only decided the fate of the Baili family, but also changed Jiang Quanliang's plan.

On the second day, the Baili family was divided into two branches, one was mainly young and strong, and followed Jiang Quanliang to Qizhou, and the other was mostly old people, women and children, preparing to go to Dustpan Village.

The children of Zhuo Mansion, in addition to Baili Changyu and Zhuo Youtong, also followed Chestnut and Youyou, and several others will also move to Dustpan Village.

Jiang Quanliang saw Zhou Zaiying, and the old man said that he had already seen through the world, and he didn't want his family to continue to wade through the troubled waters of this troubled world, so he decided to go to Dustpan Village with the rest of the Baili family.

"Grandpa Qiu, I'll trouble you." The people of the Baili family who go to the dustpan village will go to a rare place and let the mound teleport to the past, which also saves the fatigue of the old and young women and children. As a staff member, the Baili Guild has been following Jiang Quanliang.

Chestnut and Youyou, holding the two children in their arms, stood on the post road to Qizhou and prepared to see off Jiang Quanliang and others.

"Little brother, are you really not going with us? My third uncle will definitely not be reconciled, you stay here, I'm afraid ......"

"Don't worry, Captain Hong, my sister said, you are all gone, this is called dark under the lights, and no one will come to make trouble again."

Jiang Quanliang still wanted to touch the chestnut's head, stretched out his hand, but only patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, little brother, then you take care." The city you asked me before, if I remember correctly, it is called Yancheng, after passing Qizhou, after turning over the Niuyang Mountains, you have to pass through Shenguo, and then go all the way to the north, and then where it is, I don't know. ”

"Changyu, follow your master in the future, practice martial arts well, don't slack off, and you must cherish this hard-won fate." Baili Gong touched the child's head and admonished.

"Zhuo Gongzi, Miss Youyou, Baili Gong thanks again, the two of you can say that you saved our Baili family twice, such a great kindness, I really don't know how to repay it, I can only remember it in my heart."

"Chenxi, those books sent to you, but you have to read them often, I have taught you, sir, I am waiting for you to come back in the village to take the exam, if you forget it, then don't blame Mr. for letting you continue to put the stool on your head." Zhou Zaiying did not feel discouraged and tired again, but the old god was there, full of expectations for the legendary village.

Baili Gong glanced at the white-haired little girl, and when the words came to his mouth, he still didn't say anything.

A few chestnuts kept waving their hands to the people who were traveling far away until they were out of sight. Looking at the still lively Huanxin Town, Chestnut felt empty in his heart.
