Tang Jiusheng was lying on the grass by the lake, holding a rush grass in his mouth, quietly looking at the blue sky. The lake water next to him is clear, you can see swimming fish, the grass is green by the lake, and the colorful flowers are vibrant. In the past two years, it is rare to have such a relaxing and comfortable moment in the life of the rivers and lakes.

Ximen Yushuang, who was sitting next to Tang Jiusheng, did not have this calm and breezy calmness, she actually didn't want to come to the cottage, after her confession was rejected by Xiao Tang yesterday, she even had the heart to commit suicide by hanging a beam in Luofeng Pavilion. Anyway, the one who was cornered in Luofeng Pavilion before was a former queen who was more beautiful than her, and she was at most a concubine of the Lingnan King who had never passed the door, she was really desperate, and it would not be humiliating to die here.

Later, Xiao Tang asked her who was sitting in the Luofeng Pavilion like a lost soul, "I want to go to the cottage with them, do you want to go?"

There were only two women in the cottage of hundreds of people, so she was arranged to live in a room with Liu Ruqing, a young woman in Tsing Yi who was fair-skinned and beautiful, and could use a knife. When lying in bed at night, Ximen Yushuang thought for a long time, why did he follow Xiao Tang to the cottage? Although the world is very big, it seems that there is really nowhere to go, and now he finally deeply understands what it means to be desperate.

I couldn't sleep at night, Ximen Yushuang and Liu Ruqing lay on the bed and chatted. Liu Ruqing's man was a county magistrate in Yuzhou Prefecture, and he was executed and destroyed by the arrogant King of Pingxi because he prevented the cultivation of the common people in the Pingxi Wang's circle. Although Liu Ruqing has some martial arts, she still failed to save her seven-year-old son despite her desperate efforts, and since then, she has fled all the way to helplessness.

Liu Ruqing's voice was faint, as if she was telling someone else's story. She said that she didn't want to go to the capital to sue the king of Pingxi, after all, her man is also a county order, and the court officials are not just someone who can kill them. But when you find someone to write the complaint on your behalf, the person who wrote the complaint laughed, the person you want to sue is the king of Pingxi, that is the cousin of the emperor Laozi, the emperor is not willing to provoke the person, can the officials manage it?

When the desperate Liu Ruqing passed through the Spring and Autumn Mountains on the way to escape, he was caught by the mountain bandit Lao Song and a group of people, and was forced to be the wife of Huang Dazhai. Liu Ruqing didn't think about death, but she was afraid of death, and the husband who had always been affectionate told her to flee for her life before she was arrested, so she would endure the humiliation and steal her life now.

Before the sun rises tomorrow, no one knows what tomorrow will really look like. If there is still revenge to be avenged, the heart is not dead, then endure it, patiently wait for the day of revenge to come, the ancients said, the gentleman revenge, ten years is not too late, she is willing to believe in the ancients once.

Not long after, the local officers and soldiers surrounded and suppressed the cottage, and the cottage could not gain a foothold there, so the owner of Huang Dazhai fled with them all the way to Tongque Mountain. Three days ago, the main year of Dazhai with a group of brothers went down the mountain to rob was unfavorable, and the robbery actually robbed the fat man, and he waited for others to come again. Although the master of Huang Dazhai is not good at martial arts, his ability to die is still first-class in the rivers and lakes.

The master of the big village and the big village started to move, and after more than a dozen rounds, the master of Huang Dazhai was slashed again, and just now he was still a murderous mountain bandit who grabbed silver, grain, and women, and became a decapitated ghost in a blink of an eye. Before he died, the owner of the village himself did not expect that his life would end like this, right? Perhaps the owner of the village had thought about growing the cottage stronger, robbing more women and food, recruiting more brothers, and even calling for wind and rain on one side. But when people are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed and cut people, and they must also have the consciousness of being cut by others.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lao Song, the small leader of the mountain bandits, immediately knelt down, led a group of brothers to take refuge in the village, and respected Lai as the master of the big village, the fat man and the others did not understand these bandits, and they needed to have a person in charge, so they made Lao Song the small leader. Liu Ruqing originally thought that she was going to fall into the clutches of the devil again, and she couldn't escape the fate of becoming a forbidden person, who would have thought that the fat man and the others would actually keep to themselves, without the meaning of robbing the sex, and let her also be a leader in some martial arts.

Liu Ruqing sneered, "Old Song led someone to arrest me up the mountain to curry favor with the former owner of the village. Today, I wanted to rob you and give it to the new owner of the village, but he never dreamed that it would end up in the hands of a woman. Is this called retribution?"

Ximen Yushuang couldn't answer, so she had to choose silence.

Liu Ruqing turned over and said: "Miss Ximen, everyone in this cottage, if you chat with them, you will find that they all have an unforgettable story, how many people are willing to go up the mountain to be bandits? There is a saying: 'It is better to be a peaceful dog than to leave people'. ”

What can Ximen Yushuang say? Thanks to her parents, she finally became a "heroine" and roamed the rivers and lakes. Before entering the rivers and lakes, there were still some illusions about the rivers and lakes, and now these illusions have also been shattered with the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes. Although Xiao Tang said that the rivers and lakes sometimes still have a good side, she has accepted her fate and no longer has illusions at all.

Ximen Yushuang also told Liu Ruqing her own story, a beautiful girl had the opportunity to be a princess, but she still resolutely chose to escape the story of marriage, and Liu Ruqing also sighed. Soon, the two fell asleep comforting each other.

When he got up in the morning, Tang Jiusheng said that he wanted to go out for a walk, so Ximen Yushuang, who had nothing to do in the cottage, accompanied him, and the two of them walked a few miles of mountain roads and saw the amazing lake in the back mountain.

Ximen Yushuang looked at Tang Jiusheng who was lying on the grass beside her, she felt that this kid was actually quite handsome, but his personality was a little cold, was it because I wasn't good-looking enough?

Ximen Yushuang shouted weakly: "Little Tang ......"

Tang Jiusheng was still looking at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking, but subconsciously said "Huh?"

"Xiao Tang, how many grades of force do you have? I don't think you are like a fourth-grade. You casually pointed out and started again, and he jumped from the five-grade realm to the fourth-grade realm. Are you hiding your strength?"

"Eldest sister, are you stupid? In such a sinister world, do you have to have a sign that Lao Tzu is a master on your face? Think about it, if you can't kill a master, and you have to kill him, will you play yin, such as poisoning and sweating pills? Just like you think Lao Song is not a master, so you dare to directly draw your sword and cut him. If you know that the other party is a master of the first-class martial arts realm, do you still dare to draw your sword and cut people? Is this the truth? It is easy to dodge with an open gun, but it is difficult to defend against a hidden arrow. Hiding clumsy, this is the most basic and simple truth of mixed rivers and lakes. ”

"Xiao Tang, what kind of realm are you, I'm curious. ”

"Curiosity kills cats, and you'd better put away your curiosity. Besides, who knows if you really escaped from marriage? If you are an undercover agent and let you know everything, if you want to harm me one day, won't I die a very aggrieved death?"

"Xiao Tang, if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't beat you, I really wanted to kick you away. I want to be your wife in exchange for your protection. But you said you have a little junior sister, so why don't I be your maid? Then, you are responsible for protecting me, okay?"

"What do you want, eldest sister?! Lao Tzu regards you as a friend, and you actually want to be a maid for Lao Tzu? I take a maid like you who has grown into a red face and a troubled water out to walk the rivers and lakes every day, and if you don't live for a month, you have to be hacked to death or poisoned. I think it's really a miracle that you, with your IQ, can run out of your home and mix in the rivers and lakes for a month without being abducted and sold to the Qinglou. ”

"But Xiao Tang, I really want to live well, when I watched you heroically save the beauty that day, I instantly felt that you were so handsome, not only handsome, but also safe. So I decided at the time that I would mess with you in the future. ”

"Eldest sister, your is committed again. Don't make trouble, it's really not good, let's kowtow and bow down, I think it's very good to have a 'broad-minded' brother like you. ”

"Xiao Tang, why are you so unserious?"

"I don't have the word serious written on my face at all, and I don't have a nickname like 'Gentleman's Sword'. ”

"Xiao Tang, can you beat the fat man?"

"Pretty much, he's not much weaker. ”

"How many grades of force has the fat man reached?"

"At least the third grade is above average. Alas, I fell for the trick, I didn't expect you to turn a corner and set me up. I always thought you were a big-chested person, but now it seems that you are not that stupid. It's a miracle that you weren't sold to the Qinglou, and now it's another miracle that you find out that you're going to play tricks. ”

"Xiao Tang, I have a good chat with you, but I feel like you don't treat me as a woman, but as a brother?"

"Eldest sister, women should be gentle and reserved, do you have it? Either draw a sword and cut it, or confess it directly, or directly negotiate with me about the conditions, and want to be a maid for me. If I marry you, I will not marry a wife and go home, but a brother with big breasts. If the King of Lingnan knows that you are like this, will he be scared and cry and dare not let you be a side concubine again?"

"Xiao Tang, why don't you die? I'm gentle, I'm reserved, so I'm waiting at home to marry that dead fat pig?"

"Well, that pig is not an ordinary pig, it is a pig called Lingnan Wang, and there are still many girls who want to marry him. ”

"Xiao Tang, in fact, I only talk to you so directly, because I think it's very boring to talk to you, I trust you and don't guard against you. ”

"Okay, big brother, thank you for your trust, then let's make the soil for incense, knock one head on the ground, make friends for eight worships, and from now on, I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to die on the same day and month of the same year. ”

"Don Jr., I'm so angry!

"Don't mind, I'd have lost a lot of fun without you. Well, then I promise you, from today onwards, you will be my maid. But, you have to wear that kind of mask, it's not a good thing to look too cool when walking the rivers and lakes. Hey, it's majestic to think about it, the concubine of the king of Lingnan is my maid, so the king of Lingnan must also be my servant, right? Well, it seems to be a cow......

"Old Tang, Old Tang, didn't bother you, did I'm coming!" came the voice of the fat man Jiang in the distance. In a few breaths, the fat man had already come to Tang Jiusheng and Ximen Yushuang's side.

Tang Jiusheng stood up and patted the fat man's shoulder with a big grin, "Fatty, although you have gained a little fat, your light skills are indeed not bad." By the way, you can help me get two disguised masks for this little girl, I know that you kid has this specialty. ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Not bad, yes, I ate it so quickly." What kind of girl, I think it's a girl in the room, right? Okay, old Tang, you really have a hand!" the fat man gave a thumbs up.

After all, Ximen Yushuang was just a girl's family, and her face was flushed at that time, and it was not easy to have a seizure. Tang Jiusheng hurriedly pushed the fat man, "Okay, don't talk nonsense, the girl is not married yet, think about the reputation of the family." Also, by the way, you can get me two disguised masks too. ”

"It's all trifles. Let's get down to business, Old Tang, it's a mess, I just got the news. Yao...... "The fat man handed Tang Jiusheng a note.

Tang Jiusheng opened the note and read it, his face became a little ugly.

Ximen Yushuang asked with concern on the side, "Xiao Tang, what's wrong, what's wrong?"

Tang Jiusheng tilted his head and glanced at Ximen Yushuang, and said with a wicked smile, "From now on, if you want to call me Gongzi or Young Master, you are not allowed to call Xiao Tang again." Also, be gentle, don't speak so directly and strongly, and be careful that you can't marry in the future. ”

"Okay, Don Jr., oh, no, okay, Childe. Ximen Yushuang stuck out her tongue and was obviously happy. Tang Jiusheng smiled secretly in his heart, it was the first time he saw Miss Qianjin being a maid and she was so happy.

Tang Jiusheng pointed to the note and said to Ximen Yushuang, "Tip, that Lingnan King has already got your exact news and brought a group of people to the Zhu Family Courtyard in Dangyang County, and now he is gathering people, and he will bring people to attack the cottage tomorrow." ”

Ximen Yushuang's face turned pale all of a sudden, what she was most afraid of came to the door, and she didn't seem to be able to hide? The silly girl was stunned for a long time, and asked Tang Jiusheng cautiously, "Then what should we do?"

Tang Jiusheng held the handle of the knife in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said resolutely: "The soldiers will block, and the water will cover it." Lao Tzu will go to the Zhu family's courtyard now to meet Yin Chun, the fat pig, for a while. ”

Ximen Yushuang's face was shocked, he stroked his chest with his hand, and took a deep breath, "Xiao Tang, no, son, the gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall, if he can't beat it, he will run, and the Zhu family's courtyard will never be able to go!"

Tang Jiusheng smiled, stroked Ximen Yushuang's hair, and said calmly, "Don't worry, your son-in-law is not a fool, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will be able to get the tiger?" Now your son-in-law is going to kill his prestige as the king of Lingnan, and he will be caught off guard first." Since that dead fat pig chased here and wanted to bully my maid, then Ben Gongzi had to give my maid an outlet. ”

The fat man shook his head, obviously not optimistic, "Old Tang, don't make trouble, this is not a joke, the king of Lingnan saw that you kidnapped his wife, and he had to tear you apart?"

Tang Jiusheng laughed, put his right hand on the fat man's shoulder, and said mysteriously: "Fat brother, your brother Tang is a steady person, he won't joke with his own life, I not only want to go, but also let the king of Lingnan kneel down for me, and let him be willing to let his wife out, brother has a magic weapon in his hand, which can subdue demons and eliminate demons." ”

Looking back at Ximen Yushuang, Tang Jiusheng's face was calm: "Don't be nervous, my little maid, hurry up and go back to write a letter of resignation to give the king of Lingnan a resignation." This son is going to divorce that prince on your behalf. ”

Ximen Yushuang shook his head and sighed, "Childe, you're crazy, really don't make trouble." Hurry up and think of other ways, if not, let's go with 36 strategies as the best policy. ”

Tang Jiusheng laughed, "You two, you are very smart, why are you confused? Sit down, sit down, and I'll talk to you two about this Lingnan King." ”

After speaking, Tang Jiusheng sat on the grass with a confident expression of eating the king of Lingnan, the fat man and Ximen Yushuang glanced at each other, and the fat man spread his hands, not knowing what Tang Jiusheng was going to do. The two of them had no choice but to sit down.

Tang Jiusheng said eloquently, "Think about it, just for a woman, regardless of the great cause of rebellion, with a group of dogs, come to Jiannan Dao thousands of miles away, what is this doing? If there is an accident halfway, Yin Chun will be intercepted and killed, and everything will be stopped." This Lingnan King, who can do such a stupid thing with a hot brain, and who can't even be stopped by a strategist, can do a big thing? Pingxi Wang found a teammate like a pig, and then he had a headache. ”

The fat man also nodded approvingly, "Old Tang, you're right, a man who has made a big deal really shouldn't make a mistake in this matter, but this is a strategic matter, and it has nothing to do with you going to see him." The king of Lingnan is a pig, but not a domestic pig, but a wild boar, and will eat people if he is in a hurry. You can't just say it's a pig and rush to your death with your bare hands, right?"

Tang Jiusheng smiled slightly, and punched the fat man, "Fat brother, the king of Lingnan is a wild boar, but I am a hunter, and I have a hunting weapon at hand." If you two want to participate in this pig hunting activity, I will take you two to the Zhu family courtyard today, and we will meet the king of Lingnan together, but you have to listen to me then. ”

The fat man looked incredulous, stretched out his hand and touched Tang Jiusheng's head, "Old Tang, you don't have a fever, are you? Crazy? You don't count to send us to death yourself, you still have to pull us on the back?"

Ximen Yushuang took Tang Jiusheng's hand and shook it, "Childe, I beg you, don't make trouble, it's okay to make jokes occasionally to liven up the atmosphere." I just became your maid, and my good life hasn't passed yet, so I don't want to be martyred like this with you. ”

Tang Jiusheng laughed, "This is like a woman." Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to look for death, hurry, go write your letter of resignation. None of you can stop me from going to the Zhu family's courtyard today. By the way, the cottage should also be arranged to prevent the enemy from sneaking up. If you two want to go to the Zhu family's courtyard with me, then hurry up and pack your things, just in case of accidents, I have to send my father a flying eagle to pass the book. As for what you are doing in the Zhu family's courtyard, don't ask the two of you, the secret must not be leaked. In the evening, let's go to meet the king of Lingnan for a while, and I also met the master of Zhu Shaomen who offered his wife and asked for an official. No, it should be called Captain Zhu now. ”
