Chapter Ninety-Seven: To Each His Own Need

Meng Xia, who had been cultivating for three hundred years, although she had damaged her cultivation several times, was still a goblin with a lot of means, she slipped out of the confinement room in a flash when she saw the opportunity, and then changed into the appearance of a disciple of the torture hall, and left the torture hall all the way unhindered, and no one noticed.

After Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming were released from the Lingxiu fan by Meng Xia, they saw that the surrounding area was actually a fairy trace forest, and they didn't know why for a while.

Meng Xia said: "The head said that there is a big tree hole on the edge of this forest, which used to lead to a sea whirlpool, and later he closed the sea magic circle and opened another exit on the southern slope of Donglai Mountain. He said that Liang Gongzi should know about the tree hole. ”

Liang Yu suddenly realized, of course he remembered the tree hole!

At the beginning, because of Zhao Xuzhong, he and Chang Xuyun and others fought in Danxia Forest, broke the forbidden land, and afterwards were confined and punished in the flying cliff cave on the whirlpool, and in that hole, they started again, and jumped into the whirlpool, only to be passed to this fairy trace forest, which also allowed him to see Long Jiao for the first time!

Liang Yu smiled and said: "The head of the family is really thoughtful, and he actually kept such a hand, which is so much more convenient!"

Revisiting the old place, Liang Yu couldn't help but recall the excitement of the first time he met Long Jiao under the banyan tree, but at this time, the person who made his heart was in danger, and life and death were uncertain...

Coming out of Donglai Mountain, Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming only waited for the sky to be bright, and then went straight to the place of the incident first, trying to find some clues, but they left disappointed.

In the following month, they carefully searched in the land of Qilu and the East China Sea, and searched carefully, but they could not find a single clue!

In desperation, they planned to go to the nearby north and south Zhili, as well as Heyang and other places to find out, and when they passed through Qinan Mansion, Qin Ruoming said: "You and I are lonely after all, why don't you ask Zhao Yan for help?"

Liang Yu thought so, so the two hurriedly went to the mansion of the governor of Qinan, but they hadn't arrived yet, but they were meeting Yang Guodong who was walking towards them!

"Liang Yu, Qin Ruoming, hahaha, do you know that I am looking for you?" Yang Guodong strode and said with a spring breeze on his face.

Liang Yu and the others were a little surprised: "Looking for us, isn't the battle all over? What else is the matter with Yang Dusi?"

Yang Guodong patted the two of them on the shoulder excitedly and said, "You guys have made a big show this time, Governor Zhao... Oh no, now he is the secretary of the military department! Lord Shangshu has praised you again and again in front of the emperor, and even the emperor has said that he wants to see you! Come with me!"

Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming naturally said yes, and after Yang Guodong looked around, he asked again, "What about that little brother Qiaolong?"

Qin Ruoming said: "Qiao Long... It's in retreat, it's a critical moment in practice, so it's inconvenient to come out..."

Yang Guodong said with some regret: "This is really unfortunate, Sanmao Sect Elder Yu Yanping and Dragon Tiger Sect Elder Fang Xuanlie also have sect affairs to be busy, then all of them will be replaced by your two brothers!"

At this time, at noon, Zhao Yan, who had been promoted to the post of secretary of the Ministry of War, heard that Yang Guodong had returned before he left the city, and he was a little puzzled, but he saw that this Ludong Dusi had already led Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming into the gate of the mansion!

"Oh, this official just ordered Yang Dusi to invite the two, how can the two of them arrive in a moment?" Zhao Yan said to the two young people with a look of surprise, "Come with me to the inner hall and take a seat, tomorrow I will return to the capital to take office, and I will definitely entertain the two of you tonight!"

Walking to the inner hall, the guests and hosts sat down, and after the people served tea, Zhao Yan first said with a slight expression: "This time I entered Beijing, the emperor knew that we had a meritorious role in eliminating the demon thieves of the Wenxiang Sect, and promoted me to the secretary of the military department and the deputy capital of the imperial history, plus the prince Taibao, and I will return to Beijing in the near future to take office! ”。

When Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming heard this, they hurriedly got up and saluted: "Congratulations to the governor... Oh no, congratulations to Lord Shangshu, thank you Lord Shangshu for speaking for the two of us!"

Zhao Yan laughed and said: "The emperor said, you two are the pillars of the country for your crimes, and the matter of Liaodong will not be investigated, and you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!

Qin Ruoming was concerned about Long Jiao at this time, all he was thinking about was how to find someone, how could he think about the reward, as long as he restored his innocence, he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Lord Shangshu, the matter of entering Beijing is easy to say, but now..."

Liang Yu naturally understood Qin Ruoming's intentions, but he rolled his eyes, hurriedly stopped Qin Ruoming, and said to Zhao Yan: "The matter of entering the capital to face the saint is all up to Lord Shangshu, and the two of us are here, and there is indeed one thing that I beg Lord Shangshu to do me a favor again!"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Zhao Yan was just when he was proud, so he naturally said everything.

Liang Yu hugged his fists and said: "I can't hide it, there is a senior sister in my sect who has disappeared recently, and the two of us originally wanted to travel all over the world to find her after entering Beijing this time, but the power of the two is limited after all, so I want to ask the adults to use their connections to help us check all over the place." ”

Zhao Yan thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I can promise you! But since I have said this, I also have something to ask for, if you agree, we will help each other and take what we need, how about it?"

As soon as Qin Ruoming heard what Liang Yu said, it was really a good way to find someone, so he first agreed: "If the adults are willing to help, in the future, but if there is a need, the two of us will go to the soup and fire, and we will not give up!"

"Okay!" Zhao Yan stroked his beard with satisfaction and said, "Now Guizhou An Bangyan and Extravagant Chongming have made an incident, and An Bangyan is known as the king of Luodian." Successively trapped Bijie, besieged Guiyang, the imperial court has repeatedly failed to recruit Miao soldiers, I intend to recommend you to recruit Miao with the army, what do you think?"

"Zheng Miao?" Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming glanced at each other, and couldn't help but remember that the last time they went to Liaodong, the sect also sent Song Ruowei, Xu Ruofang, and Zhou Ruoli to Miao Jiang at the same time...

At that time, Song Ruowei, who was the head of the top ten masters, died in battle, Zhou Ruoli died from the Golden Silkworm Gu poison, and Xu Ruofang was infected with the Gu poison and fled back. It's really dangerous!

Zhao Yan saw that the two brothers were speechless for a while, and hurriedly asked: "When you talked about exterminating the Wenxiang Sect before, you two were confident, why did you frown when you mentioned Miao Jiang? Could it be that there is any difficulty?"

Yang Guodong also answered: "All of you here are people who have been born and died together, don't you two brothers and us still refuse to put your hearts into our hearts? If there is something difficult, you might as well talk about it, let's find a way!"

Liang Yu asked Zhao Yan solemnly: "Lord Shangshu will really make good use of his connections to help us find people?"

Zhao Yan said loudly: "Of course! How can I, Zhao Yan, ever deceive others? If you have doubts, you might as well first tell me what your senior sister's name is, what her appearance is, what her characteristics are, and when she disappeared? The Ming Dynasty's three envoys in the two capitals have some connections with their own officials, and this official will write a letter!"

Liang Yu nodded and said, "It's not that Liang Yu doesn't believe in Lord Shangshu." It's just that Miao Jiang is poor and evil, and the local witch Gu is prevalent, and my Dongxian Sect had sent three top masters before, but two of them died, and one of them was seriously injured and returned, and they have not recovered so far, so the two of them inevitably have some in their hearts..."

Qin Ruoming answered: "Some are not sure... But we don't have to shirk it, since the adults are willing to help, we will definitely go!"

"Hehe... I see! Then you go, but you have to be more careful!" Zhao Yan smiled with satisfaction, and then instructed his subordinates, "Come here!

Liang Yu suddenly remembered that the head of the family and his master had said that Long Jiao's disappearance was silent for a while, so he hurriedly added: "Liang Yu still has one more thing to worry about Lord Shangshu, that is, the matter of looking for people, can you ask someone to act in secret, don't post notices." ”

Zhao Yan said happily: "Oh! That's okay!"

After chatting for a long time, the sky was also a little dark, and at this time, someone came to report that the banquet had ended, and many guests had come, so please sit down.

During the banquet, Zhao Yan, as the leader of the counterinsurgency and thieves, was naturally praised by his subordinates, and Yang Zhaoji was ordered to take over as the chief soldier in danger, and directly in this battle, he strategized, and his merits were naturally not inferior to Zhao Yan.

After everyone took turns to toast this governor and a general soldier, according to their official positions, it should have been the turn of Yang Guodong and Liao Dong, but Yang and Liao unanimously resigned, and strongly asked everyone to toast Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming first.

Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming even said that they should not mess up the order, but how could everyone follow them, so the two had to toast a few times in a row, inheriting everyone's good intentions, and such as "Young Hero", "Pillar of the Country", "Master of Xuanmen", "Heroic Style" and so on are endless.

The so-called wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, Zhao Yan was soon slightly drunk, and when he pushed the glass and changed the lamp with officials from all walks of life, he forgot to take into account the two Xuanmen talents, and Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming didn't care, seeing that it was not too early, so they asked to leave first.

Zhao Yanlian said that he didn't take good care of him, and Qin Ruoming reminded him of the search for people, Zhao Yan agreed, and then sent them back to the post house.

At this time, the night was dark, the brothers temporarily put aside their estrangement, discussed the matter of entering Beijing, according to Zhao Yan's arrangement, they set off tomorrow, about two days to arrive in Beijing, and the matter of facing the saint should be in the morning of the next day after arriving in Beijing.

Although the two have never been to Beijing, but now the court is corrupt and everyone knows it, and Li Daoyuan, as an elder of foreign affairs, has also told Liang Yu some things about the court and China on weekdays, so Liang Yu told Qin Ruoming to talk less at that time, and everything is arranged by Zhao Yan.

Early the next morning, Yang Zhaoji, the chief soldier of Ludong, together with Yang Guodong and Liao Dong, was in Qinan Mansion for Zhao Yanyang.

This went to Beijing, Zhao Yan sat in a sedan chair, Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming rode horses, all the way, naturally it could not be compared with the past when the two of them were fast horses, and in the end they really spent two days on the road, until the next day when the city gate was about to close, they entered the capital!

Zhao Yan, as the secretary of the military department, was naturally a prepared mansion for the imperial court, and Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming, as "their own people" who accompanied them, were naturally arranged to stay in the mansion when they first arrived.

At dinner, Zhao Yan took his family and sat down with Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming, and the brothers also met Mrs. Zhao and several juniors one by one.

When the food was almost finished, Zhao Yan asked the family members to avoid it first, and then said to the henchmen who brought him to him: "The Forbidden City is still some way from here, and we will set off before dawn tomorrow, so there are some things, so it is better to tell you about some things at this time." ”
