Chapter 241: Father-in-law

The spring breeze blows, the branches of the willow trees sway with the spring breeze, and the rustling sound echoes in the ears, clear and empty.

Wang Yi hasn't felt such a peaceful feeling for a long time, it's good.

I thought that I was in that valley, lying carefree next to the old man, he was fishing, and he was looking at the blue sky.

After a long time, the old man asked Wang Yi the first question.

"You're from the court?"

Wang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the embroidered spring knife beside the old man, Wang Yi, who didn't want to tell his true identity, nodded.

"Hmm. ”

The old man took a puff of his cigarette and said, "How is the current court?"

Wang Yi didn't know how to answer, originally his identity was to be kept secret, being able to admit that he was a person from the imperial court was already the limit, according to the regulations of Jinyiwei, those who exposed their identities would either kill the person who knew their identity or commit suicide.

It is impossible for him to reveal his identity even if he dies.

How is the court, how is the world, what does it have to do with the old man, it was because of King Liang, not because of the kindness of your court.

The old man looked at Wang Yi, the cigarette stick in his hand burned rapidly, and the sound of the fire spreading through the tobacco kept ringing, and the old man and Wang Yi were silent.

The old man is reminiscing about the past, while Wang Yi is worried.

He just asked himself that question, what was going on, according to the regulations of Jinyiwei, he could only kill the old man. Wang Yi was a little worried.

Kill the old man?

Since the last time I ran away and was caught by the old man, I didn't have this thought. Wang Yi has never been a submissive person, and he was not soft at all when he killed people.

But Wang Yi is not ignorant, in the face of such a hermit master, it seems to be just the image of an old man, but in fact he is a master, Wang Yi doesn't even have the heart to resist.

has seen Jia Xu's methods, although he doesn't know if the old man is comparable to Jia Xu, but Wang Yi knows that he is not an opponent no matter what.

In this way, two people, one smoking a cigarette stick, and the other squatting there, staring at their embroidered spring knives and long swords all the time.

The thousand-year-old willow tree sways with the spring breeze, carefree.

But the two people under the tree have their own thoughts.

"Take it, and from tomorrow onwards, you will be responsible for cleaning up the leaves that have fallen from this willow tree. ”

After smoking the cigarette stick, the old man slowly got up, threw the embroidered spring knife and the long sword to Wang Yi, left here, and walked towards the road where Wang Yi came.

Is that all right?

Wang Yi looked at the embroidered spring knife and long sword on his legs, and always felt unreal.

Although I don't know the old man's attitude towards Jinyiwei, the old man can ask "How is the current court?", in this case, I think there is a story with the court.

Moreover, there are many stories.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Yi didn't understand the old man's intentions. Shaking his head, since he can't figure it out, then don't think about it.

Raise your head and look around, the sun has reached the horizon before you know it.

Wang Yi raised his right hand to block the rays of the sun, and it was already March at this time.

On the border between Liangzhou and Youzhou, a team of people appeared at the foot of a big mountain. There were not many people, but there were only about 100 riders, but they were all well-equipped, and the heavy armor on their bodies shone brightly in the setting sun.

In front of the cavalry, there was an old man who was not wearing armor, but a body of satin, and the horses under him were all red, like the legendary sweat and blood horses that only had in the Northern Qi Dynasty. The old man was a little thin, and the ruddy on his face fell into the eyes of the old man's guard on the side, which made the guard breathe a sigh of relief.

"Lord Wang, General Zhao has been away from Qingshan City for a long time, and now he should be in a small town not far away. ”

Riding a sweaty BMW, the old man hummed softly, and the brocade hat on his head was taken off by the old man and put in his hand.

Suddenly, the cavalry behind them stopped at the same time.

Strangled the sweaty BMW under him, the old man turned over and got off the horse, handed the horse to his guard, and found a big stone by himself and sat on it.

The guards behind him wanted to lay a mat for the old man, but the old man refused.

"No, this king is not old enough. ”

The guards were a little embarrassed to stand beside the old man, and when he was leaving, the young lady's explanation relied on his courage and persuaded: "Lord, although it is March, the weather is still a little cool. ”

The old man laughed, knowing that this personal guard who had followed him for many years was also kind, "No need, Zhao An is about to arrive, and the bunk must be picked up immediately, there is no need." ”

The guards had no choice but to give up and put away the mats.

After feeding his horses forage, a man with a big shoulder and a round waist stood beside the old man, "Father-in-law, you are too good to Zhao An, I am a little reluctant." ”

The old man laughed, "Yuxian, you are such a big person, you can't be jealous, An'er is going to Gu Kaizhi to compete, nine deaths." ”

This man named Yao Yuxian is one of the four righteous sons of the old man, and like that Zhao An, he is the meat of the old man's heart.

The old man's name is Li Cheng.

The old man is the king of Liang.

The only old man who was the same generation as Emperor Taizong in terms of generation.

It is also the existence that destroyed a country and became a king in the Spring and Autumn Period.

It's just that King Liang was still young at that time, like an eagle, calling for wind and rain in the Ming Dynasty.

The current King Liang is old, and the old can't be any older, like a sick tiger, but old but imposing.

Xu sat on the stone for a long time, the old man stretched his legs, and said to Yao Yuxian beside him: "Yuxian, when did you say Zhao An would come here this time." ”

Yao Yuxian beside the old man smiled, his huge body squatted beside the old man, he frowned, looking at the armor on his body, a little awkward.

"I don't know, his kid's strength is so high, he can't die anyway. ”

Yao Yuxian's official position in Liangzhou is actually not low, the deputy commander of the Liangzhou infantry, with an army of 200,000 under his command, even higher than Zhao An's cavalry commander.

But this is not the key to this Yao Yuxian's fame, Ming Dynasty and Northern Qi.

If King Qi is the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, then this Yao Yuxian is the most bizarre one of the Ming Dynasty's soldiers. When King Liang first arrived in Liangzhou, the Northern Qi Dynasty was not afraid of this prince who destroyed a country.

Because King Liang was not famous at that time, he only emerged in the later Spring and Autumn War.

So in this way, the Northern Qi began to send cavalry to constantly harass the border of Liangzhou. First of all, a small group of cavalry, after the fight, ran away, which made the generals under the command of King Liang at that time very annoyed, these people are used to the Central Plains, the kind of combat method in one go, but there is no way to meet this kind of small cavalry of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Although these cavalry have no impact on the overall situation of Liangzhou, they can disgust these Liangzhou troops who have been fighting for many years.

Everyone was at a loss, and in the end, they had no choice but to report to King Liang.

King Liang only smiled slightly at that time, and made a decree to let Yao Yuxian, who was still feeding horses in the border army at that time, go to the infantry to serve as the deputy commander.

But everyone was unwilling, a boy who fed horses, although he had a huge waist and a round waist, let such a nameless junior stand on the head of the old man who fought the world with King Liang, and no one was willing.

During that time, all the documents against Yao Yuxian were piled up in the Liang Palace. After the old man read the papers, he smiled and said nothing, but just suppressed the matter.

Then Yao Yuxian used a big victory to silence those who opposed him.

In response to these small groups of cavalry, Yao Yuxian went to find Zhao, who had been in charge of the cavalry for many years at that time

An, took away more than 100 cavalry, and then scattered these cavalry, each of them led a large number of infantry, every mountain in Liangzhou, every city as a stronghold, the cavalry is interspersed with these cities.

Start casting your nets.

Directly wipe out the Northern Qi cavalry that harassed Liangzhou.

Northern Qi was furious and directly sent 100,000 troops to the border between Liangzhou and Northern Qi, wanting to take advantage of King Liang's unstable foothold and catch him off guard.

But when the 100,000 troops of the Northern Qi Dynasty arrived on the Qingling Plain north of Liangzhou, Yao Yuxian and the 50,000 army were waiting for them.

In that battle, most of Liangzhou's troops were deployed on the border, stationed in every border city, and the only thing that could be left for Yao Yuxian was this 50,000-strong army composed of death row prisoners.

There was no one to rescue him, because at that time, the Northern Qi secretly sent more troops to attack Liangzhou, and everywhere was a war.

It can be said that if Yao Yuxian loses, it will be difficult for him to commit suicide.

Yao Yuxian won, no one knows why Yao Yuxian won, just that he won, and those death row prisoners became his pro-army.

When Yao Yuxian set out on the expedition, Li Cheng, who was not so old at that time, personally said guilty for this righteous son who was pressed in the border army by himself: "Yuxian, it's better to leave the whole corpse, and your father-in-law can still send you." ”

Yao Yuxian just nodded and didn't speak.

Yao Yuxian squatted on the ground, looking at the somewhat hunchbacked figure of his father-in-law, and felt a little uncomfortable, if that incident hadn't happened back then, would he have a nephew to call him uncle?

"Father-in-law, don't worry, there are not many people in the world who can kill Zhao An. ”

The old man heard Yao Yuxian's comforting words, and sighed slightly, it was uncomfortable to lose his own daughter, and he didn't want to try it a second time.

"The father-in-law is relieved, but he can't help but worry, this time when he goes out, the boss is in the west, and he is fighting with the Western Regions. A few days ago, the second child was on Shanshuilang's side, and the news was not very good, and Northern Qi was about to move. This time, we ate Youzhou and Qingzhou of the Ming Dynasty, and there were constant disputes in the court. ”

Yao Yuxian snorted, "Dog, those who stand above the court, they don't have backache when they stand and talk." ”

The old man smiled, "It's okay, Jade Immortal." As long as the king is alive, they can only talk about it, disgusting the king. ”

Yao Yuxian untied the long knife on his waist and put it aside, looking a little impatient, "Sooner or later, one day, I will use this knife to cut off their heads." ”

The people standing were all the old man's henchmen, so naturally they would not say such words that were close to rebellion, the old man patted Yao Yuxian on the shoulder, but did not say anything.

This trip was a bit of a hurry, and the reason was because the old man learned from Shanshui Lang that Gu Kaizhi didn't know why he came to Zhao An to compete first.

This made the old man a little worried, completely ignoring the persuasion and obstruction of his second daughter, and insisted on bringing his guards here to wait for Zhao An.

The old man's second daughter had no choice but to find Yao Yuxian and accompany the old man here.

After talking for a long time, the old man was a little thirsty, took the water bag from the hand of the guard, and the old man took a small sip.

Then the old man laughed.

A man and a rider appeared on the horizon, standing on the same border as the sunset.

The man saw the Liangzi Wang Banner in the distance, accompanied by the rustling of the spring breeze, sped up, and soon came here.

Turned over and dismounted, and came to the old man dressed in white, "Father-in-law." ”

The old man threw the water bag to the guard, got up slowly, folded his sleeves with both hands, and looked at Zhao An, the unstable breath in front of him, and finally put down the stone in his heart.

"Are you alright?"

Zhao An looked at his father-in-law and nodded, "Why don't father-in-law wait for me in the palace, it's windy here and it's easy to get sick." ”

The old man waved his hand, signaling that Zhao An was okay.
