In the north of Luoyang City, there is a Danfeng Garden.

Once upon a time, "Danfeng Garden" was originally the garden palace of the royal family, with beautiful scenery and unlimited luxury. After the change of dynasties and the baptism of blood and fire, Danfeng Garden was repeatedly destroyed and almost reduced to ruins.

After "Duanping into Luo", the Mongols pocketed Luoyang City, in order to make a lot of money, the dilapidated Danfeng Garden was openly sold, and was bought by a local rich man with a lot of money, and he wanted to repair and improve it as a private mansion, but unexpectedly the business was down, and the rich man died of depression when he repaired half of the Danfeng Garden.

In order to repay the business debt, the descendants had no choice but to use Danfeng Garden to pay off the debt. At that time, the largest creditor was Dongshan Firm.

Danfeng Garden naturally fell into the hands of Shen Dongshan, and after he spent a lot of money and carefully repaired it, today's Danfeng Garden has become a beautiful private garden, and its luxury is not much better than that of its heyday.

Looking at all the buildings in Luoyang City, if you talk about the magnificence, the first is the Ziwei Palace in the north of the city, which is the former imperial palace, naturally majestic and incomparable.

Under the Ziwei Palace, there is the General's Mansion and the Xianwang Mansion, in which the carved fence is made of jade, and the Zhu Pavilion Qinglou is breathtaking. Secondly, it is the Qionglou Golden Gate, Langyuan Yaotai, covering an area of more than 1,000 acres of Danfeng Garden.

The most touching thing is that such a good garden is regarded as a back garden by Shen Dongshan, and it can't live for three or five days a year, and most of it is idle on weekdays, which is really a tyrannical thing, which makes people both envious and jealous.

Even so, Danfeng Garden is still cleaned day and night, and there are more than 300 people in the house slave nursing home, and the annual expenses range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

This shows that the richest man in the Great Song Dynasty spends money like flowing water, and it is by no means a waste of fame.

Now, Zhao Yuan was ordered to go north, and the place where he settled was this Danfeng Garden.

In the evening, Liu Xunyi came to Danfeng Garden alone.

Although Luo Tianjin sent him to kill people, after Liu Xunyi thought about it again and again, he still chose to show his true face, neither disguised nor sneaked in, but visited him openly.

There is a lake in the Danfeng Garden, which occupies almost two-thirds of the whole garden, and is called "Ning Cui".

There is a pavilion built in Ningcui Lake, which is called "Lake Center Pavilion". As the name suggests, the Pavilion is located in the middle of the lake and is surrounded by water. What's even more interesting is that there are no bridges around the pavilion that can connect to the shore, so if you want to get to and from this pavilion, you have to take a boat.

Shen Dongshan built the Huxin Pavilion so peculiarly in order to facilitate himself to negotiate secrets with his friends.

Ningcui Lake is very vast, even if you shout loudly on the pavilion in the middle of the lake, it is difficult for people on the shore to hear one or two.

If you want to avoid the ears of the partition wall, the lake pavilion is the best choice.

At this time, Shen Dongshan was setting up a banquet in the Huxin Pavilion, talking and laughing with Zhao Yuan. Standing on the side, in addition to Shen Dongshan's personal guard Kui Qi, there were also Qiu Han and Qin Wei.

Under the moon of the galaxy, the snow drifts away, and a piece of silver flowers is sprinkled on the surface of Ningcui Lake, which is not as beautiful as the world.

A light boat broke through the lake and came slowly.

A man stood at the bow of the boat, with a handsome face and a tall posture, a green coat swaying in the wind, letting the snow fall on his body as if it were deaf.

Take a closer look, the person who came was Liu Xunyi, whose eyes were like torches and his face was solemn.

Approaching the pavilion in the middle of the lake, the boatman suddenly swung the boat horizontally, threw down the long pole, fixed the hull, bowed to Shen Dongshan from a distance, and said loudly, "Master Qiqi, Liu Zhifan has something to ask to see, I wonder if I can let him go to the pavilion?"

Hearing this, Shen Dongshan got up slowly, and just wanted to answer, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he turned his hesitant gaze to Zhao Yuan, as if to ask what he meant.

However, Zhao Yuan seemed indifferent to Liu Xunyi's visit, and still sat at the table and ate with relish.

On the contrary, Qiu Han and Qin Wei, who were standing on the side, couldn't help but reveal a trace of strangeness in their eyes when they looked at Liu Xunyi.

"Lord Zhao, look ......"

"This is Master Shen's place, so naturally everything is arranged by Master Shen. Zhao Yuan replied lightly.

"This ......"

"Master Shen, I'm offended!"

Without waiting for Shen Dongshan to weigh it, Liu Xunyi on the boat seemed to be a little impatient, and suddenly flew up, climbed the water in a move, and swept over the lake more than ten meters in a blink of an eye, and came straight to the pavilion in the center of the lake.

"Bold!"

Kui Qi shouted violently, and at the same time threw out the 10,000 thorn flywheel in his hand, accompanied by a light sound of "whoosh", the 10,000 thorn flywheel quickly swirled towards Liu Xunyi to kill, and the terrifying energy blew the lake with a rattling sound, causing waves and waves.

"Humph!"

Liu Xunyi snorted lightly, did not draw his sword, but stepped on his right foot with his left foot, and his figure jumped up again.

At the same time, the 10,000-thorn flywheel suddenly came, and Liu Xunyi took the opportunity to step on it with his feet, borrowing his strength to move forward, and the speed was three points faster, and he instantly swept up the Huxin Pavilion.

Seeing this, Kui Qi's eyes were cold, and he quickly rushed forward to stop Liu Xunyi.

Qiu Han and Qin Wei glanced at each other, and invariably drew their swords out of their sheaths, although they did not step forward to help Kui Qi, they also showed a fierce posture of facing the enemy.

"Liu Zhifan, Shen hasn't invited you into the pavilion yet, how dare you trespass?"

Shen Dongshan was taken aback by Liu Xunyi's sudden move, and wanted to try to escape for his life, but seeing that Liu Xunyi was still sensible and did not seem to have malicious intent, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he became angry and said unhappily, "I have been close friends with the master of your family for many years, and even he wants to sell me three points of affection, how dare you be so presumptuous with a small fan?"

"Master Shen forgives his sins, and he is under his life, so he can't be delayed. If you are offended, look at Haihan. Liu Xunyi glanced at Zhao Yuan, who was still eating and drinking, and turned to Shen Dongshan to make amends.

"Carrying your life?" Shen Dongshan hesitated, "Could it be that the Lord of Luo Mansion asked you to come?"

"Exactly. ”

Hearing that it was Luo Tianjin's meaning, Shen Dongshan's tone softened a lot, and he said curiously, "I don't know what the Lord of Luo Mansion is looking for Shen?"

"When I came down, I didn't look for Master Shen. Instead......" As for this, Liu Xunyi slowly cast his complicated gaze on Zhao Yuan.

"Lord Zhao?" Shen Dongshan said in surprise, "What are you looking for Lord Zhao?"

"The lord of the house has an order, and I have no comment. Liu Xunyi shook his head and said, "Dare to ask Master Shen to avoid it for the time being, and let me talk to Lord Zhao alone." ”

"This ...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" Shen Dongshan was embarrassed, "Danfeng Garden is my place after all, in case Lord Zhao makes any mistakes......

"It's better to let Qiu Han and Qin Wei stay and protect me. Zhao Yuan stretched out his hand to Qiu Han and Qin Wei, and asked Liu Xunyi, "They are officials in the same dynasty as me, and they are also loyal ministers and good generals of the emperor, I don't know what Liu Zhi wants?"

Liu Xunyi stared at Zhao Yuan, who seemed to be smiling, and was silent for a long time before he nodded slowly, "Everything is according to what Lord Zhao said." ”

"Master Shen. Zhao Yuan turned his kind gaze to Shen Dongshan, who was in a dilemma, and chuckled, "Can you make it convenient?"

Shen Dongshan looked furious, and hurriedly said, "Since Lord Zhao has spoken, Shen has been disrespectful. ”

After that, Shen Dongshan beckoned his subordinates to approach the boat, and then asked Liu Xunyi, "Liu Zhifan, Lord Zhao is a messenger sent by the emperor, you must be careful in your speech and demeanor." Hugh thinks that this is Luoyang City, so he can be lawless and do whatever he wants. ”

"Master Shen's reminder, keep it in mind. ”

Liu Xunyi replied humbly, and watched Shen Dongshan and Kui Qi go away by boat.

After a cup of tea, the boat was gone.

Looking around, except for a few people on the pavilion in the center of the lake, only the remnants of snow and fish in the water are left.

Seeing this, Liu Xunyi's expression changed suddenly, the cold arrogance on his face turned into respect, he quickly walked into the pavilion, knelt down to Zhao Yuan and said, "Subordinates, see Tianji Hou......"

Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to kneel, Zhao Yuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to support it, and said cautiously, "Although you don't have to worry about having ears on the wall here, you have to be careful that 'there are eyes on the other side'." Tonight you and I don't have to be formal, sit down and talk. ”

"This ......"

Seeing Liu Xunyi's hesitant face, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but turn pale, waved his chopsticks and pointed at the stool opposite, urging, "Sit down!"

"Subordinates dare to offend!"

After saying that, Liu Xunyi no longer hesitated and quickly sat opposite Zhao Yuan. From the shore, the two sat on an equal footing, as if negotiating.

"Looking for clothes, I haven't seen you for a long time, Ben Hou misses you very much. ”

Zhao Yuan said as he personally poured wine for Liu Xunyi. Liu Xunyi wanted to get up and humble, but he "pressed" back with his eyes.

"Xun Yi is also very concerned about Hou Ye. Liu Xunyi was so excited that even his voice trembled a little, "In the past two years, how is your old man's health?"

"Rest assured, everything is fine. Zhao Yuan looked at Liu Xunyi, who was overjoyed, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, his eyes were full of pity, "It's you, who is much thinner than when you came." ”

"Thanks to the Hou Ye, I'm fine. Liu Xunyi said humbly, "Luo Tianjin treats me well, eats and drinks without worry, and does not worry about no silver flowers." ”

"That's good!"

"That's right!" Liu Xunyi's mind turned and he said busily, "I have something to enlighten the marquis." ”

"What?"

"It is rumored that Jin Fuyu secretly cultivated an army of 100,000 in Hengshanzhai. ”

"What?" Zhao Yuanden was startled and said suspiciously, "The news is true?"

"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, the news comes from a friend in the rivers and lakes, and I believe it is true. ”

"Shhh

Seeing Liu Xunyi's sworn appearance, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but gasp, thought for a moment, and slowly nodded, "Whether this matter is true or not, we can't take it lightly." I will revise a letter overnight and report this news to the prime minister, believing that the imperial court will definitely distinguish the truth and try to deal with it. Right now, our priority is to do a good job. ”

As for this, Zhao Yuan's face softened, and he said, "Xunyi, about what you have encountered in the rivers and lakes during this time, Ben Hou has also heard about it. Fighting and killing all day long, birth and death, often old wounds are not healed and new wounds are added. Alas, I've wronged you. ”

"It's all my business!"

Zhao Yuan looked Liu Xunyi up and down with gratifying eyes, and said approvingly, "In less than three years, you have changed from a nobody to Luo Tianjin's henchman, and you were also selected by him as the fast son-in-law of the East Bed." Looking for clothes, Ben Hou really didn't see the wrong person back then, you can indeed become a great tool. ”

"Master Hou, now is not the time to catch up. Qin Wei reminded in a low voice, "Brother Liu, why did Luo Tianjin send you to come late at night?"

"Also, what are Luo Tianjin's plans for Zhao'an?" Qiu Han added, "Does he have any intention of surrendering?"

Hearing this, the joy that lingered in Liu Xunyi's heart gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a thick worry.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback, and said in a condensed voice, "Looking for clothes, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it!"

"This ...... This ......"

Liu Xunyi wanted to speak several times and stopped, but he never said the following, as if he was in a hurry, and he didn't know where to speak.

"Why do you want to spit out......? Things have changed?"

After hesitating again and again, Liu Xunyi suddenly raised his head, and his tangled eyes stared at the anxious Zhao Yuan. After hesitating for a long time, Fang turned his heart sideways and dared to admonish, "Master Hou, it's better to ...... Let's go back to Anseong together, and we'll leave tonight!"

......
