"What bad idea are you playing again?" Zhao Kuangyin knows Zongxin too well, there must be a conspiracy in this matter. Everyone said that they would go to Khitan together, and Zongxin could clearly lend a wolf to himself, so that he would go back quickly without delay. If you're just riding a horse, you might have to spend a lot of time. If you want to catch up with Zongxin, I'm afraid it's not that easy.

"What bad idea can I have to tell you to leave this alone, you have to take care of it. Since it is managed, it must be managed to the end. Zong Xin said: "Actually, I don't mind killing her here, anyway, the wolves haven't eaten breakfast yet." But then again, the wolves haven't eaten a woman yet, so it's okay to let them eat two bites. ”

"I've never seen such a crazy monk as you. Zhao Kuangyin's mood was extremely depressed, but since it was Zong Xin's idea, it was better to listen to him. And vaguely felt that Zongxin had other meanings, if he didn't take care of this matter, he would follow them to the Khitan, but since he was in charge, he had to take care of it to the end.

Zhao Kuangyin felt like he was being excluded, but this must be Zongxin's insight into something, so he asked himself to escort Jingniang back to Puzhou.

Jing Niang's face has always been very bad, how much trouble has she caused to Brother Zhao? And there is not a word in the mouth of this enlightened monk. He was by his side, and he even said that he was going to kill himself and feed the wolf...... Is he really a high-ranking monk? Even ordinary people wouldn't do that, at least not in front of themselves.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Okay, although I don't know what you're thinking, but since things have come to this point, I can't ignore them, so I'll escort Jingniang back to Puzhou." After that, I'll come back to the Khitan to find you, okay?"

"Okay, as I thought. Zong Xin chuckled and said, "Eh~ It's okay, let's eat." ”

Zong Xin wanted to speak and stopped, which made Zhao Kuangyin feel uncomfortable. However, Zhao Kuangyin felt that this matter was not simple, Zong Xin deliberately led himself into the trap, and he really didn't know what to say about him when he met this kind of friend. Although he has not cheated himself so far, he ...... There will inevitably be firsts.

After breakfast, Zong Xin left a horse for Zhao Kuangyin and immediately carried two bags. One bag is money, a bag full of silver is enough for Zhao Kuangyin to consume, and the other bag is dry food, in this kind of war era, sometimes the money can't be spent, and it is also necessary to bring some food on the body for emergencies.

Zongxin and his entourage got on the carriage and went north, Zhao Kuangyin got on the horse in Jingniang, and pulled the horse to the south.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Sister, call me big brother in the future, we are all surnamed Zhao, pretending to be a biological brother and sister will not attract attention." ”

"Big brother, I'm causing you trouble, haven't I?"

"Don't bother, maybe this is providence. Zhao Kuangyin said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, don't be restrained, I am a martial arts practitioner, and sometimes you don't mind if you are rude." ”

Jing Niang nodded silently, not knowing what to say. It's just that I really didn't expect that Zhao Kuangyin would personally escort him back to Puzhou, for a big man like him, to take care of a weak woman like this...... Jing Niang was really a little flattered.

Zhao Kuangyin's feet were fast, and the horses behind him were trotting all the way. There was almost no rest halfway, because Zhao Kuangyin wanted to finish the matter quickly, and then go to chase Zongxin. Zongxin went to the Khitan to quell the civil strife, this matter must be caught up with him, if he misses this good show, Zhao Kuangyin will regret it for the rest of his life.

Although riding on a horse is far more comfortable than Zhao Kuangyin trotting on the ground, she still can't stand it after a long time, and the skin on her inner thighs is about to break, and there are bursts of tingling.

It wasn't until it was dark that Zhao Kuangyin took Jingniang into a seemingly prosperous town.

"It's time to catch up, and if it's too late, you'll have to sleep in the wild. Zhao Kuangyin chuckled and said: "It doesn't matter if I'm a big man, if I let you sleep in the wild, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at all." We passed through this town on the way here, and I knew that here, but the wolves were much faster than the horses, so I was in such a hurry, and the journey was hard. ”

"It's not hard......" Jing Niang's heart was very warm, although Zhao Kuangyin didn't take care of his body when he was in a hurry, but he was also for his own good. If you don't get to the town as soon as possible, I'm afraid that you will really sleep in the wild, and then it will be bad.

"Let's go get something to eat first, and then find an inn to rest for the night, and then we won't have to rush so much tomorrow." Zhao Kuangyin pulled the horse to look around, and found a restaurant that he knew he could have a full meal. There is not enough dry food to eat, and even if you can eat enough, you still don't feel enough, so you must get something delicious.

Zhao Kuangyin handed the horse to Xiao Er and asked him to feed the horse, and then took Jing Niang into the restaurant. As soon as I entered the restaurant, I saw several large tables of people drinking and eating meat together. This group of people were all wearing military uniforms, but they were not the military uniforms of the Great Han or the Great Zhou, but the robes of the Song lords.

Zhao Kuangyin deliberately found a corner table and asked Xiao Er to make a few hot and cold dishes, some beef and whole chicken, and a few pots of wine.

"Big brother, do you know these people? ”

Zhao Kuangyin shook his head and said, "I know that the clothes they are wearing are the military uniforms of the Song lords. Song Valve and I don't have any trouble, but I don't want to be recognized by these people to avoid trouble. ”

"Oh~" Jing Niang didn't dare to ask more, and the two of them ate after the dish came up.

Zhao Kuangyin's amount of food has long exceeded that of ordinary pigs, after all, he is a person who practices martial arts, how can he do it without a stomach? Jing Niang ate a bowl of rice and was full, Zhao Kuangyin ate a whole table of dishes, two jars of wine, and a pot of rice was enough.

Zhao Kuangyin's appearance of eating attracted the attention of some people, and Song Valve's soldiers suddenly pointed in this direction, which also made Zhao Kuangyin a little embarrassed. This amount of food is very ordinary, Zongxin eats more, isn't it okay to eat a large amount of food?

Suddenly, the door to the private room on the second floor opened, and a familiar face stepped out of it. Zhao Kuangyin immediately lowered his head and didn't look at it, but he probably had already seen it.

The people on the second floor suddenly walked down and sat next to Zhao Kuangyin's and Jingniang. Jing Niang has been staring at this girl, although she is not very old, but she gives people an invisible pressure, and her temperament is outstanding, and she is not comparable at all.

"Isn't this Zhao Kuangyin?elope?" Song Qianqian smiled: "I happened to be looking for you to have something, where is Zong Xin? Why didn't he come with you?"

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Zongxin went north, and I went south, what's wrong with not being together? ”

"It's okay to see you. Song Qianqian said: "The business of Yandao is doing well, we Song Valve want to get a share." ”

"You're going to be crazy, there's no way to do this. Zhao Kuangyin didn't listen to any reason or explanation at all, and directly refused. Because there are too many people in the business of Salt Island, everyone knows that this is a piece of fat. Song Valve still wants to get involved, which is absolutely not possible.

"What's the matter? Isn't my sister serving well enough in bed? Why is this brother-in-law favoring one over the other?" Song Qianqian said: "Guo Wei's useless daughter Guo Ning'an's dowry is two percent of Yandao's income, and our Song valve has nothing." My sister was also a virgin when she was with him, so she had to give a little dowry. ”

"Isn't Yelu Deguang's life enough?" Zhao Kuangyin really felt that this Song Qianqian was shameless enough, as a girl, he dared to say such a thing. Moreover, Yelu Deguang's head and the lives of hundreds of thousands of Khitan soldiers are the most valuable dowry in the world, and she is not enough.

"Hmph~ Don't fight with me haha. Yelu Deguang's head Zongxin has been thinking for a long time, but he just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha to marry my sister, and Song Valve's actual income is not at all. I'm not afraid to tell you, Song Valve has been poor recently, and your grandfather Zhao Jing has given us less and less money, but he has gained a percentage of Yandao's income, and the richer he is, the more he picks the door, my father can't bear it anymore, and if it goes on like this, Song Valve will have no money to send troops. ”

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Is it still necessary for the Song Valve to send troops? The Khitan is now in a mess, and the civil war is continuous. The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun no longer need your Song Valve to send troops, and they still want money just to recruit troops and buy horses to get involved in the world, don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Even if you kill me, you can't help it, I can't do it. ”

Song Qianqian knew that Zhao Kuangyin couldn't be the master, but he had a profit from Yandao. It's just that this income is transferred to Zhao Valve, and it is distributed by Lei Hong. It would be great if Lei Hong directly gave Zhao Kuangyin's share to Song Valve. Although Zhao Jing loves money like his life, he does not dare to directly face the two major forces of Lei Hong and Song Valve.

However, this is just to think about it, Zhao Kuangyin was originally Zhao Valve's person, why did he give his 10% of his income to Song Valve? Unless Zhao Kuangyin broke with Zhao Valve, this incident would never happen.

Song Qianqian suddenly smiled and said: "I know that you can't be the master, I just want to complain to you, my brother-in-law's elbow turned out, what can I do? ”

"After all, Song Valve didn't help Yandao's business at all, how could he tell it for no reason?" Zhao Kuangyin said: "Bai Yunfei is responsible for processing and distribution, Gu Guozhang is responsible for transportation, and it is natural for Li Jing to share Yandao in the Tang Dynasty." Lei Hong sent troops to guard and take care of business, you Song Valve has no other ability except for occasionally fighting a dozen small battles, you can't do business, and you don't have enough troops to help guard, why take money?"

Zhao Kuangyin's words deeply stung Song Qianqian, and it is true that Song Valve has no development potential. Because the Song valve did not have much business to do, and there was a major event in Taiyuan recently, Liu Chong was called the emperor in Taiyuan, and the name of the country was still Han, but it was called the Northern Han in order to distinguish it from the previous dynasty.

Now that Liu Chong occupies Hedong and confronts Guo Wei, Song Valve is in Liu Chong's territory, this guy is scheming, and he has put pressure on Song Valve several times, and he doesn't want Song Valve to continue to send troops to Youyun Sixteen Prefectures.

Liu Chong's idea is very simple, let the Khitan occupy the sixteen states of Youyun, and the power will slowly develop southward, approaching the boundary of Cangzhou, and Guo Wei will also feel a headache at that time. Find an opportunity to send troops to attack, so that Guo Wei is overwhelmed, and may be able to recapture the Liu family.
