Chapter 63: Old Friends

"Shopkeeper, these really don't matter. We have other things in our hands, today is to explore the way first, compared to these, we are more concerned about whether there are other opportunities for wealth. Jiang Mei smiled. "It's too long to go into the mountain once, and the situation outside is also a little worrying, and we miss some cases, or I hope the shopkeeper can mention a little bit. You see, we can talk a lot, and it's kind of fate, isn't it?"

"Opportunity?" the shopkeeper showed a hint of suspicion, he hesitated a little, and said, "What do you want to do?"

"It's best to be on the local side, I'm afraid it's hard to go back now." Jiang Mei deliberately showed hesitation.

"If you want to talk about it now, it may be the Zhao family in Nancheng that people are more concerned about. The Zhao family helped General Han Feng before, but then they were rectified by the Chu people, and now the situation is not good, so they took a lot of good things out and sold them in 66 to let a large family live. The old man of the Zhao family came to me a few days ago and gave me a batch of goods at a low price. They look like they're going to destroy their homes and avoid disaster. If you have the heart, you might as well go over there and ask. The old man is kind, we can't help anyone who opens a shop, if you really have the strength to help the Zhao family, everyone will accept this favor. Moreover, the old man will not be stingy, and he will definitely be able to satisfy you. ”

The shopkeeper did not take credit for revealing these news, but still gave the price of the goods, which was a hundred and twenty taels of gold. The saying that gold in the troubled times is not in vain, Yongqing Xing can still hoard a large amount of gold to pay for various goods at this time, and this alone is very revealing. The shopkeeper also asked them to hand over all the goods in their hands to Yongqing Bank to sell.

Leaving Yongqing Xing, Ariel Ye's face turned a little paler. "I didn't expect it to be like this. ”

"If the State of Chu really wants to make a way from the mountains close to the Shifang Mountains to go around the back of Wu Xing, it will be really difficult to guard against, it depends on what the front line is entangled into, and whether the generals guarding can see the shape clearly. Jiang Mei said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I remember that the person stationed on Wu Xing's side is General Luo Jiaxing." ”

"yes. General Luo Jiaxing has been stationed in Wuxing for eight years. ”

"If it's him, that's not a big problem. Jiang Mei smiled and said: "He has a calm temperament, he is not a brave general, but he is very good at command and scheduling." In addition, there was a comprehensive deduction in the Yue Kingdom back then, and the first person who proposed to let the army go to the near side of the Ten Directions Mountain was Luo Zhenkang, the father of General Luo Jiaxing. ”

Ye Yichen was shocked: "How do you know this?"

Jiang Mei smiled smugly: "When I was in the Vietnamese army, Luo Jiaxing was still a child. ”

As soon as Jiang Mei said this, Ariel Ye was indeed a lot more relieved. Afterwards, it turned out that the situation was indeed as Jiang Mei expected, although Luo Jiaxing faced heavy pressure from the Chu army on the frontal battlefield, it was useless for Wu Xingcheng to keep a reserve of 3,000 people, and at the mountain pass facing the mountain, he even drew considerable strength to build a temporary pass after intense fighting. Although it was only a very simple pass with huge trees and earth and stones, it made the cavalry of Chu State who came from afar return in vain. If it weren't for the fact that Luo Jiaxing really couldn't draw troops to pursue it, it was even very likely that the military camp of the famous side would be wiped out.

Although there is nothing surprising about Luo Jiaxing's defense, the arrangements and commands are all very appropriate, and the troops and people in his hands are used to the extreme. With Wu Xingcheng's defense battle, Luo Jiaxing gradually became one of the famous generals of the Yue Kingdom.

But that's not what they care about right now.

"I know the old man of the Zhao family. Ariel Ye said: "That's really a good old man." Loyal to the country of Vietnam...... He has been guarding Anting for probably many years. If it weren't for Old Man Zhao, many things would be difficult to do here. ”

Jiang Mei glanced at Cheng Bang. Cheng Bang understood, and hurriedly said, "Then let's go and have a look." As long as we don't reveal our whereabouts, we should also help where we can. ”

Although he didn't understand why Jiang Mei said this, he would never be upset. Chengbang's trust in Jiang Mei is absolutely unconditional. Jiang Mei knew why the old man of the Zhao family took root in Anting, and the old man of the Zhao family, Zhao Tiegong, was also a family general like him. Every time they come to Anting, they will find time to talk to Zhao Tiegong and have a drink or something. When he brought Cheng Bang to Anting, he ran into the situation too quickly, otherwise Zhao Tiegong would have been happy to know Cheng Bang, the little master. Now, the Zhao family is in trouble, and it is absolutely impossible for Jiang Mei to sit idly by.

casually found a kid on the side of the road, gave them a few pennies, and took them all the way to the Zhao family's old house. The original courtyard with carved beams and paintings now looks a little sluggish, and the gate is closed. There was a knock on the door, and it was a long time before an old family member came to open the door. The old family recognized Jiang Mei, and when they saw this old man's old friend coming to the door, their eyes immediately lit up. The Zhao family is in trouble, and those who are afraid of getting into trouble are far away, and these days, the Zhao family is cold. Although everyone has expected these things for a long time, and the lord has instructions from top to bottom, but there is a difference between listening to and actually feeling this kind of thing. Having such an old friend as Jiang Mei come to the door will obviously make everyone feel happy.

"Mr. Jiang!" the old family bowed deeply and said, "You haven't been here for a long time." ”

"Zhao Fu, no one has ever been here in our family?"

"Why, you are the most righteous. The old family happily beckoned them into the courtyard and said, "Mr. Cheng came half a year ago, and then, two months ago, Mr. Xu came." Mr. Xu came to say hello and left, saying that you don't know the news here in Anting yet, and you have to hurry back to report. ”

"Is it Uncle Cheng and Uncle Xu?" Cheng Bang understood as soon as he heard it, Jiang Mei was obviously very familiar with the Zhao family, looking at the expression of this old man, it was almost like treating Jiang Mei as his own.

When Zhao Tiegong heard that Jiang Mei was coming, he hurriedly greeted him. "Old Jiang, why are you here at this time?"

"Lao Zhao, are you okay? I heard that you are a little troublesome. ”

The two of them patted each other on the shoulder and hooked their shoulders, and the brotherhood was overflowing. Zhao Tiegong beckoned everyone into the main hall. Zhao Tiegong is also very careful now, there are only a few of them left in the main hall, and the others, even his cronies, and even his nephews have been sent out.

Although the Zhao family looks a little depressed now, Zhao Tiegong's bold temper has not changed for a year.

"Trouble, just rely on those rabbit cubs of the Chu Kingdom? The foundation of my Zhao family, you can get up by tossing and tossing casually, and now you will lose all of it. Zhao Tiegong didn't care at all: "However, where have these rabbit cubs of the Chu State fought? Have you heard of it? ”

Jiang Mei touched his nose a little embarrassed. It's really hard to explain. Jiang Mei was born in Yue**, but Zhao Tiegong is not, although he is also from the military, but Zhao Tiegong is a person from the powerful Yongguo in the north, and he is the deputy of Chengbang's mother's personal guard back then, and he was once an out-and-out general, both in terms of grade and knowledge, he is much stronger than Jiang Mei and other sergeants from the bottom. Back then, Zhao Tiegong stayed in Anting to run a business, also because he had the ability to take charge alone, whether it was the kung fu under his hands or the familiarity of being in the world, he was the most trusted by everyone. Everyone has been a family for a long time, and these generals have long lost their initial courage and ruthlessness, and they all regard each other as brothers, but if words can make each other unhappy, they will still do it without hesitation.

"Don't talk nonsense, Her Royal Highness Princess Qinghe is here. Jiang Mei hurriedly lowered his voice and said.

"Isn't Princess Qinghe dead?" Zhao Tiegong was stunned for a moment before he said, and as soon as his eyes turned, Ye Yichen appeared.

"Ah, you old boy sneered at me!" Zhao Tiegong's first reaction was not surprise, but blamed Jiang Mei: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the old man Zhao Tiegong is so polite." ”

"Old Zhao, let's be polite. Ye Yichen hurriedly held his hands and helped Zhao Tiegong up. She looked at Jiang Mei in surprise, her eyes full of inquiry.

"Lao Zhao is also a family general...... Back then, he was the vice-captain of the main mother's attendants. Lao Zhao, you haven't seen the little master yet, have you?"

"Little master?" Zhao Tiegong's eyes were full of surprise, and he looked at Cheng Bang, who was smiling on the side. Different from the previous salute formatted to Ye Yichen, facing Cheng Bang, Zhao Tiegong paused on one knee and gave the most standard heavy salute in the Dayong army: "Zhao Tiegong has seen the little master!

"Uncle Zhao, hurry up. Cheng Bang smiled and said: "I didn't know before, if I had known earlier, I should have come to you to play more than a year ago." ”

"Haha, it's not too late. Zhao Tiegong looked at Cheng Bang and lightly punched him in the chest. Feeling the natural reaction of Cheng Bang's body, Zhao Tiegong asked in disbelief: "Little master, have you broken through the Qi Stimulation Period?"

Cheng Bang nodded triumphantly.

"Good, good, good!" Zhao Tiegong laughed arrogantly: "Sure enough, it's a tiger father without a dog." Come on, come on, it's definitely something to celebrate. ”

Although Zhao Tiegong is no stranger to the Shifang Mountain, he has been in the mountains for a long time, but the experiences of Cheng Bang, Jiang Mei, and Ye Yichen are still too legendary, which makes his heart beat for a while. "With this kind of experience, the improvement of the realm is very fast, and the foundation is still very solid, but it will be a long road in the future. It's not so easy to make a breakthrough after the gas period......"

"Lao Zhao, you better tell me what kind of trouble you are encountering now. Little master, it is not your turn to worry about his cultivation, Jiang Mei said angrily. ”

Zhao Tiegong glared at Jiang Mei, looked at Ye Yichen again, and said, "Speaking of which, we have to start with the death of the first king......

Ye Yichen was struck by lightning: "What, my father ......!"

Ye Yichen was dizzy for a while, but fortunately, Cheng Bang supported her and sat down on the chair next to her.
