Chapter 406: Lian Wu, Jurchen, Name
Lin Chong practiced martial arts in the house, the house was sent by Tong Guan, although it was not much and magnanimous, but it should be fully equipped inside, and the location was good, just east of the inner city not far from the evil alley.
This place is ten times stronger than his previous residence, the original residence is just a small courtyard in the alley in the west of the city, not to mention the house, it is crowded and narrow, and it is very inconvenient to travel.
Lin Chong was practicing the sun turning needle at the moment, just looking at the wisps of red light flashing under the wave of his hands, and there were cold rays in between, which were actually red silk threads, and the threads were decorated with slender silver needles.
There is a small flower garden in front of him, at this time the spring is warm, some flowers are budding to be released, some have bloomed brilliantly, he raised his arms slightly, the red line shot into the flowers, only to hear the "whoosh" a few soft sounds, there are two or three flowers falling together, and one is pulling, obviously the strength is not reached, not completely pierced.
Lin Chong frowned and withdrew the red line, but it was three in each hand, a total of six, but he didn't shoot all the flower branches just now, which couldn't help but make him a little upset.
This sun needle is very different from the martial arts he has learned in the past, in the past he focused on guns, spears, flower spears, snake spears, etc.
No matter how cunning the gun's moves are, but after all, it is a long soldier, and it can't get rid of the number of ways to cross and close, but this day needle is different, this thing is said to be a short soldier, but it is too short, it is said to be a hidden weapon, but it also involves a red line, which can entangle the enemy's blade, in short, it makes him feel awkward everywhere.
He also knows that this is because he has been practicing guns since he was a child, and he is used to other weapons, and there must be a familiar process, but the strange technique and body shape of this sun needle still make him can't help but slander, after this practice, where will there be a little bit of manliness? If you are not a eunuch, you will be recognized as a eunuch!
Lin Chong took a deep breath, his wrists suddenly shook slightly, and the six red threads "swished" into his sleeves.
Although he was uncomfortable with this sun-turning needle, he also knew that this was a first-class martial art in the world, and if he wanted to kill Gao Yu to avenge his hatred, it all depended on this martial art.
There is no shortage of martial arts experts around Gao Yu, if he follows the original means, he can't only intercept and kill with a gun, but how can Gao Yu be so easy to kill? What's more, in broad daylight, even if he kills Gao Yu, where can he flee to? Whether you can get out of the city or not is two words.
But after learning this sun needle, it is different, this martial art is erratic, and the ghost shot, even at night, you can use this martial art to sneak into the Gao Yu Mansion, and then kill it with a needle unconsciously.
It is true that Lin Chong's martial arts are very powerful, but he does not have the ability to come and go, and he uses a spear, so it is difficult to do some assassination.
The martial arts of the Sun Turning Needle include body footwork, and with the ghostly flying needle, it can simply kill people invisibly, and if it is used on the line of thorns, it is even more exquisite and ingenious.
Lin Chong stood by the flowerbed with his eyebrows shaking, and he thought of another person, should that person be killed?
Thinking of that person, he thought of Zhenniang, and then had some heartache, although the feeling of heartache was already unfamiliar, and a little inexplicable.
A few years have passed, and he has forgotten a lot of things, but what he remembers clearly is that he did not feel any heartache when he left Tokyo for distribution, and even some relief.
When did that start?
It seems that it was only after the fire burned the forage field that night, and then went to Liangshan, and since then the official career has been cut off, and the heartache is still very painful.
He still wanted to kill that person in his heart, and even if it was possible, he wanted to kill the faint monarch and the official family together.
But the question is whether he can kill it, whether he can kill the other party with his strength.
If he wasn't completely sure, he wouldn't do it, and it was not worth it to put himself in it.
This is different from Gao Yu, he hates Gao Yu to the core, whether he can or not, he will always go to try.
But the man ...... It's not necessary, right? That person is the real master Ruyun next to him, and I heard that his own family is also practicing martial arts.
Lin Chong's face was cloudy, and his heart was full of contradictions.
He and the man had no grudges, and they were in front of the resignation, so there was no intersection other than that.
For a woman? It's not that he doesn't have women around him now, let alone ...... What's the use of him asking for women?
yes, what's the use of him wanting women! Lin Chong stretched out his hand violently and picked up the big gun on the side, and stirred it at the flower garden, breaking the flower branches, shattering the bones, and flying petals, even butterflies and bees were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
In a short moment, a small flower garden was destroyed by Lin Chong, he gasped, and there was a sense of relief on his face after venting the anger in his heart, and there was a trace of confusion.
At this time, Hu Sanniang came out of the house with a basin of water, and when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but say: "Lang Jun, what are you doing to destroy the garden?" ”
Lin Chong looked at Hu Sanniang, his eyes fell from her pretty cheeks to the basin, and said coldly: "Didn't you say that you want to hire two maids, how can you do such rough work of fetching water yourself?" At the moment, it is not that there is no money, not to mention the gold and silver brought back from Taizhou, the godfather also rewarded a large sum, which is always enough for daily expenses, even if more is hired, it is enough. ”
Hu Sanniang whispered: "Lang Jun, I want to have a lot of people in this place in Tokyo, if it is because of hiring people...... It's not good to be seen. ”
Lin Chong said: "I have been disfigured and changed, even if I take off my mask, no one can see it, as for you have never been to Tokyo at all, how can you worry about being recognized?" ”
Hu Sanniang was stunned for a moment, and shook her head slightly: "I, I'm the one who is worried about Liangshan......"
Lin Chong thought about it when he heard this: "Didn't the people of Liangshan all be taken by Song Jiang to conquer Tianhu?" The imperial court's move to drive the wolf and the tiger is really vicious, no matter whether it wins or loses, it is estimated that there will be no more left in Liangshan, but since they are not in Tokyo, Sanniang, what are you worried about? ”
Hu Sanniang said: "I'm worried that they may not all be gone, and there is nothing wrong with acting carefully." ”
Lin Chong groaned: "Now my identity is different, I am Tong Shumi's righteous son, even if I am recognized by Liang Shan, I don't have to care, the only bad thing is that I am afraid that Gao Yu is secretly looking for trouble, as long as Gao Yu is dead, then what am I afraid of!" ”
Hu Sanniang said: "Lang Jun, but Gao Yu is the secretary of the court, not to mention that such a person is usually tightly guarded, and it is difficult to assassinate, even if he really succeeds, won't he shake the court?" When the time comes, we will track it down all the way......"
Lin Chong waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have my own plans, if I don't have a good hand, how can I get out of the depressed breath in my chest, I am afraid that it will be difficult to improve martial arts in the future, even if I get a lot of glory and wealth, it is just a waste of this life!" ”
Hu Sanniang opened her mouth, wanting to persuade a few more words, but she also knew in her heart that Gao Yu was Lin Chong's heart knot, if she didn't kill this evil official, Lin Chong would not be able to pass this threshold in her heart for the rest of her life, and she had no chance in the past, but now she is under the nose of Tokyo City, if you endure it any longer, I am afraid that people will go crazy.
Lin Chong saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, so he said: "Sanniang, don't worry, I won't act recklessly, I have to plan better, you don't have to worry too much." ”
Hu Sanniang nodded: "Lang Jun be careful, Tokyo is a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, and if you really want to do it, you must not leave a trace." ”
Lin Chong said with a smile: "I grew up in Tokyo, don't you know this kind of truth, you don't bother with this matter, it's better to hire two maids to serve, if you really can't rest assured, go to the outer city Niushi Street and the tooth shop, most of them are from the countryside, they don't know how to read, and they don't know what the court Liangshan is, so they can rest assured, but they are not meticulous enough to do things." ”
Hu Sanniang said: "That's good, what do you want to be meticulous, I was also from Zhuangzi, and I looked kind if I was rough." ”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went to the house to clean up, Lin Chong looked at her back, his hands spit slightly, two red threads ejected out, and continued to practice the sun-turning needle......
Zhao Ta was still training the army by the Yellow River that day, and at noon he ate a big stove meal with the soldiers, the cooking cakes and broth were enough, and everyone had a salted radish in their hands.
Sitting on the edge of the pot, taking a bite of the cooking cake and taking a bite of salted radish, Zhao Ta ate very fragrantly, and Zhang Xian next to him also ate like this, the little soldier filled the two with broth, Zhao Ta looked at it and smiled: "This food is good, if you can maintain such a level in wartime, why not win the war." ”
Zhang Xian took a sip of the soup, there was indeed meat in it, and he said: "Lord Wang, I'm afraid that I won't be able to cook cakes when I am in a hurry, so I can only eat cold ones." ”
Zhao Ta nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a person riding a horse coming from a distance, shouting as he ran: "Lord Wang, happy event, happy event!" ”
Zhao Ta saw that it was Lei San in the house, waved his hand and asked, Lei San said: "Lord Wang, the county has given birth!" ”
"Oh?" Zhao Ta couldn't help but look slightly moved when he heard this, and when he left the house in the morning, Wen Po said that he was afraid that he would give birth in the next two days, but he didn't expect to give birth today.
"Male or female?" Zhao Ta touched his chin and asked, a little excited in his heart, he hoped it was a girl.
"Lord Wang, it's a ...... Xiaolang! Lei San scratched his head, and he didn't know how to call it appropriate for a while, it was naturally inappropriate to call the little prince, and it was not right for the prince, the eldest son was the son, and Zhao Ta had no princess now, so he couldn't encroach on the title, so he had to call Xiaolang.
"Xiaolang?" Zhao Ta raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect it to be a boy!
"Let's go, go home!" With an order, all the soldiers were on vacation and no longer trained, and Zhao Ta took Zhang Xian and others into the city and went straight to the palace.
I went back to the palace to go to the back house, at this time I was in full swing, my mother and mother-in-law kept walking in and out with hot water and other things, and the big and small maids were busy, he wanted to go straight into the room, but was stopped by the two mothers-in-law, saying that it would be good for a while.
After staying for a while, it should have been cleaned up, Zhao Ta walked in, and saw Zhu Xiuniang lying on the couch with a tired expression, a hot wipes on her forehead, a small bed next to her, and a little doll stretching her arms on the bed.
Zhao Ta stepped forward to see, this little doll didn't cry, he also looked at him, he stretched out his hand and wanted to hug it, and the mother on the side said: "Be careful, the child has just been born, and you can't help it." ”
Zhao Ta thought about it, his own strength was indeed a little big, and he didn't understand the methods of holding children, so he stopped: "You guys did a good job, all of them are rewarded!" ”
The mothers and mothers-in-law thanked them together, and Zhao Ta looked at Zhu Xiuniang and said: "Xiuniang is so self-cultivated, just ask people to tell the king what they want, as for the child......"
Zhu Xiuniang was nervous when she heard this, and stretched out her hand to protect the small bed: "You, what are you going to do?" ”
Zhao Ta looked at her and smiled: "The child will be raised here by you, the nurse over there has already been found, let her come over later." ”
Zhu Xiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, she was very afraid that Zhao Ta would take the child away and send it to be raised elsewhere, then she really didn't have any thoughts at all, the clan brother Zhu Xiang didn't believe what she said at all, and even suspected that she was in a trance, so who else could she rely on in this world? Now there is only this child, and this child is her life.
Zhao Ta looked at it for a while and said, "The eyebrows are very similar to this king, huh...... The ears are similar, and they are too delicate in other places, and they look like a little girl, not like Xiaolang. ”
Zhu Xiuniang turned her head and said, "The child is like me." ”
Zhao Ta glanced at her, didn't speak, walked around the house for a while, ordered to buy some things, and then walked out, walked to the door and turned around and said again: "Xiuniang remember to recuperate." ”
Then, open the door and leave.
Zhu Xiuniang saw him leave, gently hugged the child, held it in her arms, pressed her face against the child's face, whispered, and her eyes were full of love......
In the blink of an eye, summer came, Liu Qi went from the northwest to Tokyo, and Zhao Tan heard the news that Jin Guo was going to send an envoy to visit Song secretly, because last time Liu Qi was the master of the sea, this time he still needs to be received.
The original maritime alliance was discussed back and forth several times, sometimes on ships, sometimes when the Jurchens sent envoys to Tokyo.
Later, just after the constitution was made and the credentials were used together, Fang La's side rebelled.
Then Wanyan Aguda repeatedly urged the Great Song Dynasty to send troops to Northern Liao, and Emperor Daojun was anxious, and dragged it until Fang La was exterminated, and then reluctantly sent the Western Army out, and at this time the Liao State was almost defeated by the Jurchens.
Then the Western Army was defeated, and Tong Guan had no choice but to spend money to buy Yanyun......
The Jurchen envoy's visit to Tokyo was carried out in secret, and no one below knew about it except for some people at the top of the court.
A few days after Liu Qi arrived in Beijing, Emperor Daojun summoned a group of ministers to discuss the matter, including Zhao Ta and Zhao Kai.
Emperor Daojun crowned Liu Qi Taizhong as a doctor and negotiated with the Jurchens, but he was afraid that the Jurchens would not be sincere enough, so he wanted to choose another host between Zhao Ta and Zhao Kai, and finally picked Zhao Kai.
Zhao Ta was too happy not to go, he was not willing to deal with the Jurchens at the moment, and as for the internal intelligence of the Jurchens, there was nothing to explore, and he had a lot in his heart.
And he knew that this time it would probably not be possible to negotiate, and he would have to come back a few more times, after all, at the beginning, both sides were lions with their mouths wide open, and no one wanted to show weakness.
The Jurchens were also a little confused about the reality of the Great Song Dynasty at this time, although they fought the Liao army relatively easily, but the Liao and the Song Dynasty had not been at war for many years, at most there was border friction, and they didn't know what the current strength of the Song army was.
However, Song has fought a lot with Western Xia over the years, and basically ended in Song winning, which undoubtedly increased the bargaining chips for the Song side in this negotiation.
As the summer intensifies stronger, the envoys of the Jin State finally arrived, the number is not much, only a dozen, although the Great Song Dynasty is a secret reception, but the specifications are extremely high, presided over by the King of Yun himself, and these Jin people are placed in the Chengdong Hua Department Pavilion.
At this time, Zhao Ta was preparing to make 100 days of wine for his children in the house, and everything was almost ready, only the child's name had not yet been named.
He pondered for a moment, there are rules to follow in choosing the name of the royal family, not just randomly.
As for what Zhao Kai gave to his children, Zhao Taro and Zhao Heilang are actually trumpets, not proper names, and it is impossible to write these on the royal genealogy.
According to the rules, this generation should be the speech department, Zhao Huan's eldest son is called Zhao Chen, and the sons born later are called Zhao Jin and Zhao Xun.
But Zhao Ta hadn't figured out which word to call for a while, after all, this was his first offspring, and he had to think about the name.
He walked around the house and went to the back house, and when he entered Zhu Xiuniang's courtyard, he saw a group of people enjoying the shade under the tree, watching him come and greet him.
The child was lying in the wooden cart, and when he saw him stretching out his hands, Zhao Ta hugged him and said, "What should I name Xiaolang......?"
Zhu Xiuniang said on the side: "Lord Wang, I have already thought of the name." ”
Zhao Ta smiled and said: "The name of a talented girl must be extraordinary, I don't know what name you have named?" ”
Zhu Xiuniang said: "It's called Zhao Xi!" ”
Zhao Ta was stunned when he heard this: "What? Zhao what ......"
Zhu Xiuniang said: "Zhao Xi! ”
Zhao Ta's face was weird: "Which Xi?" ”
Zhu Xiuniang said: "The morning light is faint, the Xi of Fuxi!" ”
Zhao Ta looked at Zhu Xiuniang and laughed slowly: "The name Xiuniang is good, but it's a pity that it doesn't conform to the rules of the clan!" ”
Zhu Xiuniang said: "I know something, Taizu has the imperial order, and Emperor Taizong also has fourteen factions, but I only call this name myself, and the prince can use the words of the faction to name it." ”
Zhao Ta looked at Zhu Xiuniang and touched her chin: "How can a child call out two names?" Xiuniang, you are giving this king a problem! ”
Zhu Xiuniang saw that he was not angry, and couldn't help but smile lightly: "Who in the world doesn't know that His Royal Highness King Qin is the leader of Shilin and the master of the literary world, and it is so laborious to come up with a name?" ”
Zhao Tan sighed: "Since a child can't call two names, let's call Zhao Xin, the words and words are happy, and the left and right are the same sound!" ”
Zhu Xiuniang was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then said lightly: "The prince is really talented!" ”
Zhao Ta put Xiao Zhao Xin back into the wooden cart and glanced at her meaningfully: "Xiuniang prepare well, don't be rude at the 100-day banquet in three days!" ”
After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
