Chapter 248 Soulmates are hard to find
After everyone finished the ceremony, Duan Xiliu listened to Jiangdong Pavilion talk about the origin of Qingmei, and knew that it was a hard-working woman saved by the two, so he changed his face, and said to Qingmei with a smile: "Such a beautiful little girl, Senior Brother Xiao sent me well, I am so big, I do everything by myself, and I haven't enjoyed the taste of being waited for." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Everyone laughed, Qingmei was so ashamed that her face was red, and she stood beside Xiao Han and was uneasy.
After laughing, everyone set off, Xiao Han asked Jiangdong Pavilion to take everyone to the riverside first, and he took Duan Xiliu to bid farewell to King Zheng. Li Congshan knew that he couldn't keep him, so he gave him five hundred taels of silver, and Xiao Han naturally wouldn't be polite.
Zhang Cheng and Zhao An were originally Chizhou Xiangjun, and they had already gone back after completing the task, and Li Congshan handled all the matters quite well, and now all affairs are being carried out step by step, and everything mentioned by Xiao Han is being handled in an orderly manner. Li Congshan secretly collected ancient calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings all over the country, and secretly searched for stunning beauties all over the country, and quietly sent them to the palace for Li Yu to enjoy. The couple were quite happy, and they had great trust in Li Congshan, and they gave a banquet on three days and a gift on five days, and their brothers and sisters were respectful, so that the ministers of the court and the central government were envious and admired.
In this cover, under the personal guidance of Xiao Han, Li Congshan quietly formed the first special force in the Southern Tang Dynasty, with a number of five hundred, and handed over to the Chizhou Assassin Zhang Quanyue for command and training, named "War Tiger Special Commando", the captain Jin Qiuping, who was originally the Marquis of Tianxing Army, was selected by Li Congshan because of his strong martial arts. He also set up a secret intelligence organization of 300 people, "Qianlong Intelligence Bureau", and the director Ge Shaofeng, who was originally the head catcher in charge of catching thieves in Jiangning Mansion, was best at using spies and counter-plots, and according to legend, there were hundreds of Jiangyang thieves under his hands.
The mission of the "Hidden Dragon Intelligence Bureau" is to dig out the hidden personnel of various countries, and the second is to infiltrate various countries, collect intelligence, and take advantage of the situation. Xiao Han once described to Li Congshan in detail the later generations of the CIA and the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, of course, they were all replaced by ancient names, and Li Congshan was terrified when he heard it, and realized the importance of intelligence agencies for the first time.
Everything else is going on one by one, although he is reluctant to let Xiao Han leave, Li Congshan understands him very well. The two said goodbye, Xiao Han took Duan Xiliu to the riverside, and everyone was waiting there.
Seeing that it was still early, and there were still Tang troops and ships patrolling the riverside and on the river, Xiao Han led everyone to play casually by the river, which was like a spring outing. At this time, it was the middle of March, the flowers were red and willow green, the scenery was pleasant, the green plum girl had a heart, picked a lot of flowers and braided a straw hat, one person and one hat, everyone was not good at brushing her mind, even Sima An put on a flower hat, with his respectful face, which made everyone laugh.
Xiao Han hadn't been so comfortable for a long time, and when he was tired of walking, he took everyone to sit down by the river and gossip. Bai Haoming suddenly mentioned Murong Qiuyu, who had not seen him for a long time, Fu Haoxuan's eyes turned red, after his pet was burned to death by fire last time, Murong Qiuyu promised to give him another centipede, who knew that he would disappear after her, making Fu Haoxuan lose face in front of his brothers.
Xiao Han was very speechless, but Duan Xiliu was funny, and then talked about the customs of the Great Song Dynasty, which attracted the attention of the seventh son after a while. Everyone sat in the grass, accompanied by the spring breeze, talking and laughing, which attracted the envy of the people.
was talking and laughing, when he heard an elegant voice and said in surprise: "Brother Xiao, it's a good luck." Xiao Han hurriedly looked up, but saw a young man pushing a wooden car, a beautiful young man sitting on it, and a young man standing next to him, and a small girl ring standing on the right, it was Zhao Xu and Zhao Boyu, who had met at the inn when Li Jing was out of Beijing.
When everyone saw the guests, they hurriedly walked and stood behind Xiao Han. Xiao Han smiled and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Brother Zhao, fortunately." Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Are these your family?" Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "What a faux pas, I was in a hurry last time, I forgot to introduce it, and I am not talented, I am the head of the Wudang faction, and I am a reckless man, Brother Zhao will be surprised?"
Zhao Xu's eyes were surprised, and he slapped the palm of his hand with a folding fan and said: "I see, I said that the last time I saw Brother Xiao, I felt a chivalrous spirit on my body, and now when I see it, it is really so." The two looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Han looked at him sitting in the car and said strangely: "Brother Zhao, is this injured? I remember the last time I saw you standing." Zhao Xu sighed and said: "It's a shame to say, it's really sitting at home behind closed doors, and disaster comes from the sky." Last month, I was studying at home, and the study was in disrepair and suddenly collapsed, and my younger brother couldn't dodge and injured his ankle. ”
Xiao Han said with concern: "It takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones, so you should recuperate at home, don't move around more." Zhao Xu smiled and said: "Thank you Brother Xiao for your concern, I am a person who is very active and not quiet, and I have learned some three-legged cat kung fu." I heard rumors in the rivers and lakes that Da Song wanted to recruit relatives for the princess, and I was curious, so I couldn't say that I had to cross the river to see. ”
Xiao Han's heart sank, stared at him and said, "It turns out that Brother Zhao is also from the rivers and lakes, it's really disrespectful." Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "I'm not a person from the rivers and lakes, I'm just curious." However, Brother Xiao is the head of a faction, and with so many people, he must be going to Tokyo to participate in the war, why don't we go together, what does Brother Xiao think?"
Xiao Han now has the backstage of King Zheng, and he could have crossed the river in a bright light, but he still had important things to do, so Ke Laosan was still responsible for smuggling across the river. However, since Zhao Xu said that he wanted to go with him, he couldn't refuse.
Qingmei suddenly whispered to him: "Let's go alone, these people are from unknown sources, Childe should be careful." Xiao Han smiled and waved his hand to her lightly: "Childe and I have met once, don't worry." He turned his head to Zhao Xu and said, "Since Brother Zhao is willing to walk with us, Xiao is very honored." ”
Zhao Xu was overjoyed, turned his head and instructed the maidservant: "Hongyu, have you gone to see if the boat is coming?" Hongyu bowed down and retreated, ran to the riverside to look, and came back soon after: "Childe, the boat is docking, let's go over." Zhao Xu said to Xiao Han: "I chartered a boat, let's go together." Xiao Han smiled: "It's so bothering." Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "Everyone is a friend, don't see outside, please." ”
Everyone walked towards the river together, and sure enough, they saw a merchant ship parked on the shore, these merchant ships traveled to and from the south of the Yangtze River to and from the north and south, and the special passes issued by the governments of the two countries, and the naval armies of the two countries would also go on board to inspect them, as long as they did not involve state secrets, they were generally fine.
Everyone boarded the boat in turn, Tang Jun really boarded the boat to check, I heard that it was to Jiangbei to watch the competition to recruit relatives, and saw that they were fully licensed, Tang Jun quickly let them go, the boatman untied the cable, and shouted: "The boat is up." "Follow the penny into the river and slowly leave the riverbank.
At this time, it was getting late, the breeze on the river was blowing, and everyone sat down in turn, listening to Xiao Han talk about "Water Margin" again, and the two boatmen who rocked the boat were stupid. is also a girl, Qingmei and Hongyu don't seem to deal with each other, and the two never speak. Qingmei has been shrinking behind Xiao Han, and Hongyu has been standing beside Zhao Xu.
Xiao Han suddenly remembered the last time he was in the inn, and he remembered that Zhao Xu had two rings, and he didn't know what was going on, and now there is only one left. The crowd was fascinated by the story, and the boat unconsciously leaned towards the north shore, and by this time it was already dark, and everyone got off the boat. The two young men pushed Zhao Xu, and Xiao Han led everyone along the official road, which was a market town in the distance.
Zhao Xu admired Xiao Han very much, sat on the car and said: "If Brother Xiao doesn't give up, go to the town ahead, I will hire a few carriages, so that it will be faster." Xiao Han was just about to express his gratitude, when suddenly several black shadows flashed in front of him, and a hoarse voice asked, "Who is here?" ”
Everyone was shocked, Jiang Dongge and Duan Xiliu rushed up, and the two young men protected Zhao Xu and stopped behind everyone. Xiao Han saw that there were only a dozen people in front of him, and he was enough to deal with it, so he was relieved, and walked over and hugged his fists and said, "Dare to ask you who are the enemies of the gang leader?"
Several people in front of him were stunned, and the hoarse voice said, "Who are you?" Xiao Han arched his hand and said: "Xiao Han, the head of the Wudang faction." There was chaos in front of him for a while, and more than a dozen people came up at the same time, clasped their fists and arched their hands: "I don't know that Mr. Xiao has arrived, there are many rudenesses, and the head of the house forgives my sins." ”
Xiao Han smiled and said, "You have done a good job, I will ask the three sects for credit." The hoarse man was obviously the leader of this group, and immediately hugged his fists in thanks, and then said, "Please go to the gang to rest." Xiao Han shook his head and said, "No, we still have to hurry, how many people have you arrested?"
The man said: "Since last month, a total of 47 traders of unknown origin have been arrested, and they are all imprisoned in the cellar, waiting for the chief head to deal with them. In front of Zhao Xu and the others, Xiao Han was inconvenient to ask again, and pondered: "Okay, you send someone to escort my people to the front market town to live, and I will go with you to see the head of the enemy." ”
The man was overjoyed, and immediately divided ten people to escort everyone forward, and then personally led the way with four of his subordinates, leading Xiao Han and Duan Xiliu to the Chiyang Palace station.
Zhao Xu was very surprised, he didn't expect Xiao Han's prestige to be so strong. He knew how to be polite, he didn't say a word, and followed the Chiyang Hall to the front to live, a young man went out to find a mule and horse shop to hire a carriage, everyone rested separately, Jiangdong Pavilion was responsible for keeping vigil, and waited until Xiao Han came back to rest assured.
One night was safe, and the next day everyone got in the carriage and set out again. Xiao Han, Qingmei, Zhao Xu, and Hongyu sat in a car, Zhao Xu and two family members rode to escort them, Jiang Dongge and Duan Xiliu also rode horses and followed the carriage, and Sima An, Chu Tianshu, and Fan Ruoshui sat in the back two carriages with the seven sons of Wudang.
Fan Ruoshui now has a task, Xiao Han asked him to teach Wudang Qizi to read, and stated that he would take the school exam once a month, and he would be rewarded for teaching well, and he would be punished if he didn't teach well. Fan Ruoshui knew that Xiao Han had both black and white, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and he was very attentive. Sitting in the carriage, he did not forget to urge the seventh son to endorse, and tortured the seventh son enough.
The convoy went straight to Suzhou through Chuzhou and Haozhou, and Xiao Han and Zhao Xu chatted all the way, which was very enjoyable. The two cherish each other, hate each other late, and can't wait to form brothers with different surnames. Xiao Han met his bosom friend for the first time, and his heart gradually opened, and he told him everything about himself and Li Yueying, Chai Xinyue, and Murong Qiuyu.
Zhao Xu always had an elegant smile on his face, and after listening to him, he sighed: "Everything in the world, only the word love is difficult to break. Brother Xiao was fortunate to recognize three peerless women, and they had come to the world in vain. As for the future results, it is not up to you and me to control them, all we can do is do our best and leave no regrets. ”
The convoy slowly marched into a valley, and after fifty miles through the valley was Shangqiu, the speed of the march gradually slowed down. The ground was uneven, Xiao Han felt that the bump was terrible, and he was just about to make a sound to remind the car to slow down, when he heard a neighing of horses in front of him, and then the convoy stopped.
