On this day, when the group of four arrived outside Taiyuan City, a light rain fell in the sky.
In the hazy rain and fog, the mountains and rivers appear to be green. Pearl-like droplets of water gather on the green grass and leaves, and soon gather in one place and roll to the ground, forming a gurgling stream of water, thousands of wisps, moistening the earth with vitality.
Chai Shaoning bent down and bowed a handful of water from the lake, splashed it on his face with a "bang", and the whole person was refreshed.
Song Yuanlan, who was sitting on a horse with an umbrella in the back, scolded with a smile: "This fool, he can't be watered thoroughly on a rainy day, and he wants to wash his hair with cold water, but we can't live in the hotel, so I go crazy in the rain with him." ”
Shangguan Rou helped the senior brother to hold the reins of the horse as always softly, looked at the broad back of Chai Shaoning who dismounted and squatted to the river, and said, "The third brother is happy to go home!"
Song Yuanlan listened, turned the handle of the umbrella, threw out a waterline along the umbrella, splashed Shangguan Rou and said with a smile: "Isn't Rou'er also going home? The third sister will also help you celebrate!"
Shangguan was so angry that she complained to Xue Nianci: "Second sister, you see that the third sister is bullying me again!"
Xue Nianci lowered the edge of the umbrella in time, so that she was not thrown by Song Yuanlan's waterline, and said: "Your third sister really loves to bully people!"
Song Yuanlan smiled when she heard this: "Rou'er doesn't pester your senior brother, but she complains to the second sister all day long, how can you grow into a big girl like this?"
Shangguan Rou pouted when she heard this and said, "I don't want to grow up!"
Song Yuanlan was curious: "Didn't Rou'er always think of herself as an adult, why did she suddenly want to grow up again?"
Shangguan Rou snorted, tilted her neck like a little princess and asked, "What's so good about growing up? Don't you have to marry like the third sister?"
Song Yuanlan smiled when she heard this: "Rou'er has really grown up, tell the third sister, what's wrong with getting married?"
Shangguan Rou glanced at Chai Shaoning, blushed and said, "If you get married, you have to be bullied." On the day on the mountain, I listened to you screaming in the next room!"
Song Yuanlan "Ah" let out a low cry, blushing and glaring: "Nonsense, where do I have a name?" After speaking, when she turned around, she saw that Xue Nianci's face next to her was also red, and she said in shock: "Second sister, you, you won't eavesdrop too-"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xue Nianci even turned red this time, interrupting Song Yuanlan's words and said, "I didn't hear anything!" After speaking, she couldn't help laughing anymore and said: "Who made your Chai Lang so anxious, causing me to pull Rou'er to run tightly and can't run!"
"Ahh
Xue Nianci saw that Song Yuanlan wanted to save face, so she simply put aside her shyness and said with a smile: "Wait until I catch you in bed next time, see how you can deny it?"
"You still say?" Song Yuanlan was so angry that she put away the umbrella, and when she just wanted to shake Xue Nianci off her body in water, her back was cold, and she was thrown by Shangguan Rou.
"Okay, little girl, you dare to bully me!" Song Yuanlan turned around and was about to clean up Shangguan Rou, when Xue Nianci's waterline was thrown over again.
Song Yuanlan couldn't resist, and as soon as she clamped the horse's belly, the horse galloped forward and arrived at Chai Shaoning's side.
Song Yuanlan shouted: "The third brother will take revenge on Lan'er, the second sister and the fourth sister are teaming up to bully me." ”
Xue Nianci and Shangguan Rou in the back all laughed when they heard this. Xue Nianci did not forget to educate Shangguan Judao on the spot: "Rou'er, look, there are benefits to getting married!"
Chai Shaoning turned around and was infected by the cheerfulness of the two daughters, and asked Song Yuanlan with a smile: "What were you talking about just now?"
Song Yuanlan held back her face, and after her red ears were red, she slammed her umbrella on Chai Shaoning and said, "It's all your fault!"
Chai Shaoning was beaten inexplicably, and said with a bitter face: "Why are you blaming me again?
How could Song Yuanlan be reasonable? She jumped off the horse angrily and said, "Don't you like to wash your face, I'll let you wash enough!" After speaking, while Chai Shaoning was stunned, he pushed Chai Shaoning into the river.
Chai Shaoning guessed that Xue Nianci and Shangguan Rou must be joking with themselves and Song Yuanlan, which caused Song Yuanlan to lose her temper. In order to dissipate his wife's anger, Chai Shaoning didn't dare to climb ashore, and stood in the chest-length river and pretended to say: "Lan'er's method is really good, but this basin is still small, and it still can't let go of the third brother's face!"
Song Yuanlan laughed when she heard this, "Is your face so big? It's real that it's getting thicker and thicker!"
Xue Nianci and Shangguan Rou in the back saw that Chai Shaoning was so afraid of his wife, and they immediately laughed even more happily.
————
found an inn in the town outside the city, Chai Shaoning asked Xiao Er to send a basin of hot water to each room, and the four of them quickly washed off the dust along the way and rested in the store temporarily.
After nightfall, Chai Shaoning instructed Xue Nianci, Song Yuanlan, and Shangguan Rou to have a good rest, and he changed into night clothes and quietly walked out of the inn.
At this time, the drizzle had stopped, but the sky was overcast, and the five fingers could not be seen in the dark.
Chai Shaoning first went around to the north of the city, and when he arrived at Song Shoucheng's house outside the city, he saw that the gate was locked, and there was no light in the house.
Chai Shaoning did not delay, followed the route of entering the city in the old days, and went straight to the former Sun Mansion.
Sun Ji Silk Village has been converted into a martial arts hall at this time, with the banner of the government at the door, and there are many martial artists living in it. However, Chai Shaoning went around the village for a week, but he didn't even see a single Song family.
Chai Shaoning felt strange, but he didn't dare to alarm the people in the martial arts hall, so he identified the location of the gate of the Terracotta Division, and sneaked all the way.
Since Zhao Yinian was promoted to an official and was in charge of public security in Shanxi, he did not often go to the barracks outside the city to garrison, and at this time he was sitting alone in a study hall in the yazhong with his eyes closed and meditating.
Hearing the slight movement of the window frame, it didn't seem like the night breeze was weird, Zhao Yinian opened his eyes and saw Chai Shaoning already standing in front of him with a smile and saluting: "I haven't seen you for half a year, Brother Zhao has always been good?"
Seeing Zhao Yinian rubbing his eyes, as if to confirm that what happened in front of him was not an illusion, Chai Shaoning smiled: "I shouldn't have bothered late at night, but now that the situation is unknown, I'm afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to my eldest brother." Don't be surprised by the recklessness, big brother!"
"You're really here!" Zhao Yinian confirmed that the person standing in front of him was Chai Shaoning, but he didn't show a smile on his face, just looked at Chai Shaoning coldly and asked, "Tell me, did you assassinate the current saint?"
This was what Chai Shaoning expected, he sat down on a chair in the corner of the study and said, "I was about to talk to my eldest brother about this!"
Zhao Yinian listened to Chai Shaoning's narration expressionlessly, and did not interject half a sentence during the period, until Chai Shaoning finished speaking, he nodded and asked Chai Shaoning: "So you are here to be a lobbyist for the king of Sichuan?"
Chai Shaoning nodded and said, "So to speak." ”
Seeing Chai Shaoning being so direct, Zhao Yinian inexplicably showed a wry smile and said, "Why do you dare to come to me? and how can you be sure that I have the courage to rebel?"
"Because you are a soldier, a real iron-blooded soldier!" Chai Shaoning said movingly: "Brother Zhao I know has always dared to act boldly, and he is a person who will not bow to power. With your character, how can you be willing to obey those courtiers and thieves?" Chai Shaoning suddenly realized when he said this, and said with a wry smile on his face: "There seem to be many masters in the eldest brother's yamen!"
Zhao Yinian's expression darkened and said, "Brother, did you disappoint your brother?"
Chai Shaoning shook his head and said, "It's a matter of life, how dare I blame the general?"
Hearing that Chai Shaoning changed his name, Zhao Yinian smiled bitterly again, and then shouted outside the door: "If you don't show up, do you want me Zhao to invite you?"
With a "squeak", the door was pushed open, and two people strode into the house.
At the same time, a large number of archers poured into the courtyard outside the study, and there was a sound of wind outside the window and on the roof, obviously there were masters outside, preventing Chai Shaoning from escaping.
Zhao Yinian pointed to the first general who was wearing soft armor, with a rugged face and a cold look like an iron man, and introduced Chai Shaoning to Chai Shaoning: "Brother, come and get to know you, this is one of the four fierce generals under the Hainan throne, Shi Rui and General Shi! Everyone in the world knows that the four swords in the hands of the four fierce generals have never met an opponent on or off the battlefield, brother, can you make General Shi so fearful, and I don't know whether to be happy or sad for you?"
Chai Shaoning didn't understand what Zhao Yinian meant? got up and hugged his fist at Shi Rui and said: "When I was in Hainan, I often heard people talk about the general's name, and I am fortunate to meet today, Chai Shaoning is polite!"
Shi Rui's eyes were like knives, he looked Chai Shaoning up and down, and also hugged his fists slightly: "Brother Chai's name, I, Shi, have often heard people talk about it recently. ”
Zhao Yinian smiled, and then picked up the topic and said to Chai Shaoning: "General Shi led three thousand iron horsemen here to take over my brother's position, lead the 150,000 troops that are about to be assembled outside Taiyuan City, and cooperate with the court to attack Hebei. Brother, I'm just an idler now, so brother, don't blame my brother for not being able to help you!"
Chai Shaoning nodded silently.
Zhao Yinian pointed to Shi Rui wearing alien clothes behind him, and put a black belt with gems embedded in gems and obliquely inserted peacock tail on his head, and said with the same mighty face: "This is the Xuanyin Holy Lord, the master of the Jade Girl Sect of the Jade Girl Cave in Guangxi, and his skills are not inferior to the three evils of heaven and earth, so be careful when brothers and saints take the initiative!"
These words not only seemed to be introducing the two sides, but also clearly reminded Chai Shaoning to guard against the other party's strength, and made Chai Shaoning even more confused, so he looked at the Xuanyin Holy Lord, and didn't even bother to say hello, to see what Zhao Yinian did next?
When Zhao Yinian introduced Shi Rui and the Xuanyin Holy Lord to Chai Shaoning, he sat in the chair and did not move until the introduction was completed, then he smiled at the two of them, stretched out his hand and pointed at Chai Shaoning and said, "Two, you don't need me to introduce you, right? This is the person you are looking for, my brother Chai Shaoning!"
Shi Rui nodded after hearing this, and said: "General Zhao is indeed a believer, I will be honest about your loyalty to the court, and the Holy Lord and the prince of Hainan will not treat you badly!"
