Han ride

Chapter 17
"Okay, okay, big brother, aren't you just alone? Is it necessary to be so reluctant? As long as Xiaowan is in your house, you can use Zhao Guang as you like. How about it?" persuaded.

"That's okay, that's okay." Qiu Hejia glanced at Li Xin inadvertently, but saw that his expression was flat, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, he waved his hand and said, "Looking at the friendship between you and me for many years, things are like this Right! However, I think it's a pity that Zhao Guang's martial arts are buried like this, why don't you take up the post of coach of my guard and teach them some martial arts! Zhao Guang, what do you think?"

Zhao Guang looked at Dong Fusheng when he heard the words, and Dong Fusheng nodded secretly in his heart. This Zhao Guang is a loyal person, so he nodded at the same time and said: "When a strong man is free, he can spare some time to teach these people. That's it for my martial arts."

"Yes." Zhao Guang nodded.

"These people still need to train seriously. Uncle, uncle, and nephew will leave first." Li Xin nodded to Jiang Yi and others in the distance, ignored the fiery gazes of hundreds of people, and walked towards the back house.Seeing this, Dong Fusheng showed a look of relief on his face.

After today, Dong Fusheng finally decided to go south.They didn't ask Qiu Hejia to send them off, but let Li Xin lead Xiao Wan out of Shili Pavilion in Jinzhou City.

"Uncle, you are not in good health, why don't you rest here before returning to Jiangnan?" Li Xin looked at Dong Fusheng and said worriedly.He felt that although Dong Fusheng's health had improved slightly, he might not be able to travel long distances.

"It doesn't matter. Now that the weather is getting warmer, it's time to go back to Jiangnan. Haha, if there is such a day, Ye Luo will return to his roots!" Dong Fusheng patted Li Xin on the shoulder and said, "I'm most worried about you and Xiaowan. Actually When I came to Liaodong this time, I never thought about keeping Xiao Wan here. But seeing your current situation, I feel more at ease letting her stay here."

Li Xin, however, the more he listened to it, the less he liked it, and he always felt that Dong Fusheng was suspected of being a puppet.This feeling can't be expressed, it can only be a frown.

"Xin'er, although you are skilled in martial arts, you are inexperienced. Remember, in this world, don't trust anyone easily. Sometimes, the person you trust the most is actually the one who is most likely to betray you. The person." Dong Fusheng suddenly thought of something, and sighed softly: "It's been so many years since I've seen him, and he has changed a lot." Li's confidence moved, and he felt that Dong Fusheng seemed to be reminding something, but It is inconvenient to say it for some reason.

"Daddy." Dong Xiaowan's almond eyes were slightly red, and his little face was full of reluctance.After all, it is a minor child who used to be under Cheng Huan's knees, but now he has to leave his parents, Dong Xiaowan is naturally reluctant.

"Xiaowan, don't worry, when your brother Xin fully recovers and the court pardons his crimes, you can go back to the south of the Yangtze River with him, then me and your mother." Dong Fusheng pointed at the guard in the distance. Zhao Guang said: "Then Zhao Guang is from a famous family, and his loyalty is unparalleled. If there is anything that cannot be done, you can ask him to help. Xiner, this person can be trusted."

"En! This Li Xin knows." Li Xin nodded.

"Zhao Zhuangshi." Dong Fusheng glanced at Dong Xiaowan, and then recruited Zhao Guang.

"Sir." Zhao Guang was still holding a silver gun, with a resolute expression on his face, and Li Xin nodded repeatedly. After all, this man was a famous general, but he could tell by his actions.

"Strong man, I want to call you a good nephew." Dong Fusheng's eyes showed a gleam of wisdom, pointing to Dong Xiaowan, and said: "A few days ago, asking you to be Xiaowan's guard was actually just an excuse. I am afraid that you are used by the governor, which violates your original intention. Today, there are only four of us present, you are a famous general, and Zhao Zilong in Changshan was unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness. What do you think?"

"This?" Zhao Guang was taken aback for a moment, and then a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he finally said, "I'm afraid the villain is overreaching."

"Brother Zhao is joking. After you are a famous general, how can you climb high? If it weren't for me being a sinner, I'm afraid I would also want to become sworn brothers with Brother Zhao. Xiao Wan, I haven't seen your sworn brother yet." Li Xin also said with a smile at this time.He knew that Dong Fusheng's move was on the one hand to let Dong Xiaowan have a support here, but more importantly, he didn't trust Qiu Hejia.If Li Xin is not a person to be punished, even if Qiu Hejia has done something, Li Xin can still take Dong Xiaowan out of Jinzhou openly, but now Li Xin can't protect himself, and Zhao Guang is extremely loyal, so Dong Xiaowan will worship him. Zhao Guang is brother.

"Xiaowan has met Yibro." Dong Xiaowan is also very smart, seeing her father and future husband say so, she knows that Zhao Guang must have something special, so she salutes quickly.

"Miss? Madam? Sister, you don't need to be polite." Zhao Guang couldn't be ordinary, and was about to step forward to help him, but he thought of something, so he had no choice but to return the gift.Forced to recognize Dong Xiaowan as a righteous sister.

"Okay, okay, since you are Xiaowan's righteous brother, you are a family, and my Liuhe gun can be passed on to you in its entirety." Li Xin said jokingly.

"Thank you, thank you?" Zhao Guang didn't know how to address Li Xin for a while, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on Jun's face.

"Haha, just call me Li Xin." Li Xin laughed loudly and said, "Actually, my Liuhe Spear came from the Wumu King Yuefei back then, but there are some other things added in it. If you want to learn, pass it on to you." That's it, I think you are the leader of several families, and you will definitely be able to create the same marksmanship as your ancestors in the future."

"Thank you son." Zhao Guang finally said a word.There was also a hint of excitement on his face, thinking that although some marksmanship has been passed on to others, each of them cherishes himself and will not pass on his own marksmanship to people with other surnames. Zhao Guang has been living in Shenzhou for many years. Although he has seen countless marksmanship, he still knows the others fur.You can improve your marksmanship, but you have never inherited a true marksmanship.But Li Xin is different. In later generations, he has long abandoned the views of sects. The so-called Overlord Spear of Xiang Yu, Zhao Yun's Seven Detective Pan Snake Spear, Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear, Luo Cheng's Luo Family Spear, Yue Fei's Liuhe Spear, etc. Later, Li Xin's master asked someone to study a software, which combined these marksmanship and boxing methods into a set of marksmanship, named Liuhe marksmanship. It can be said that Li Xin's set of Liuhe marksmanship has gone beyond the scope of traditional marksmanship. It is already a master of marksmanship.This is the power of future technology.

"Okay, Xin'er, Xiaowan, I will send you off for thousands of miles, and I will have to say goodbye. I want to say goodbye." Dong Fusheng looked at Li Xin and Dong Xiaowan seriously, with a trace of kindness on his face, stretched out his dry hands, He took Li Xin and Dong Xiaowan with one hand, put their hands together, and said: "Know each other and stay with each other, hold your hand, and grow old together."

"Yes, father." Dong Xiaowan nodded repeatedly.

"Father-in-law, just rest assured." Li Xin was also a little moved at this moment. Dong Fusheng valued love and righteousness, traveled thousands of miles, and came to Liaodong regardless of his illness. The righteousness of the whole brother taught Dong Xiaowan into his own hands, without any regard for himself. He is a criminal, and more importantly, when he knew that he had to protect himself, he did not hesitate to take out money to help him buy the morale of the army.Why doesn't Li Xin recognize such a father-in-law.

"Hey! Xiaowan, let's go back!" Dong Fusheng finally left, seeing the carriage in the distance disappearing from sight, Li Xin sighed, and helped Dong Xiaowan onto a small bridge he had brought.However, he and Zhao Guang rode towards Jinzhou City on a horse.

"Hey! Mr. Li, long time no see, okay?" As soon as the group arrived at the city gate, they saw a chubby figure greeting them. Drinking tea at a tea stall.

"Zhang Yifu, you are a wealthy man, why are you drinking tea here?" Li Xin asked amusedly.

"I don't know, my lord. Recently, I've received an errand. I'm so busy that I can't keep my feet on the ground. No, let's sneak in and get something to drink here." Zhang Yifu rolled his eyes, as if he was It's the same as preventing others from eavesdropping on your own words.It made Li Xin laugh for a while.

"Hey, my lord doesn't know something. The villain recently received a deal to raise [-] shi for food and grass." Zhang Yifu stretched out his chubby right hand and said proudly.

"What? Are you ready to fight?" Li's confidence moved, and he asked calmly.

"Master Jinglue has ordered that after five days, the army will set out for Dalinghe City and prepare to build Dalinghe City." Zhang Yifu said proudly: "This time Guanning cavalry will dispatch more than 1 people, and there will be about [-] men in service. There are so many, hehe, these are all for food and drink, and the imperial court naturally supplies the food and grass in the army, but what about these servants? They need us to deliver food! This is quite a huge sum! "

"We really need to rebuild Dalinghe City!" Li Xinchang sighed.These bigwigs in the court certainly saw the benefits of rebuilding Daling River City, but they didn't know that Huang Taiji would let you rebuild Daling River City. The first two times have failed, so how can they do it this time? will succeed.

"That's not true." Zhang Yifu said with a smile: "They don't build the city, how can we make money, oops! It's almost time, hurry up and transfer the grain and grass." Li Xin cupped his hands and disappeared into the crowd.

"My lord, why is there a need to build this Dalinghe City?" Zhao Guang said slightly dissatisfied: "If you can recruit soldiers and horses with this money, Guan Ning's iron cavalry can at least increase the number of ten thousand people. Such a powerful army will Afraid of Donglu."

"It would be fine if the imperial court listened to you." Li Xin shook his head and said, "Forget it! Go back! I will teach you Liuhe marksmanship. I believe you have such a good foundation and you will learn it soon. The rest is up to you." actual combat."

"En! Please give me some advice, my lord." There was a trace of joy and gratitude in Zhao Guang's resolute eyes.

When Li Xin arrived at the governor's office, he learned that Qiu Hejia had been summoned to the Jinglue Mansion to discuss important matters.Naturally, Li Xin wouldn't ask any of these questions, so after he settled Dong Xiaowan, he took Zhao Guang to teach him the Liuhe Spear on the school field behind.What he didn't know was that what was being discussed in the Jinglue Mansion at this time had a lot to do with him, Li Xin.

In Jinglue Mansion, Sun Chengzong, governor of Jiliao, Qiu Hejia, governor of Liaodong, Zhang Chun, commander-in-chief of Liaodong striker Zu Dashou, deputy general He Kegang, commander-in-chief Wu Xiang, Song Wei and other civil and military personnel gathered together. According to reason, everyone should United under Ji Liao Governor Sun Chengzong, this veteran has great prestige in the court.But in fact, the atmosphere in the hall was extremely hot.

"Master Supervisor, this Dalinghe City consumes countless things every year, and every time it is built, it is destroyed by the Eastern Captives. No matter how much money I have in Ming Dynasty, I can't afford such consumption." Qiu Hejia touched Beard, glanced at Sun Chengzong above, and said lightly: "Now the imperial court has raised the field tax from nine per cent to one cent and two per cent. There are other tax burdens, and those people are already miserable. The imperial court has all these money. The purpose of sending them to Liaodong is for the supervisor to deal with the Eastern captives as soon as possible. But the supervisor used the silver to build such a useless thing as Dalinghe City. Can we just waste the people's fat and anointing like this?"

"Here, the construction of Dalinghe City is the decision of the imperial court. What's more, if we don't take advantage of Donglu's defeat and rush to repair Dalinghe City, why don't we wait for Donglu to recover his strength and go south to Jinzhou?" Sun Chengzong slightly He glanced at Qiu Hejia dissatisfied.If Qiu Hejia hadn't been in the way, the construction of Dalinghe City would have started long ago.This Qiu Hejia can be a scholar, but he is extremely pedantic. Now that the imperial court has issued an imperial decree, he still opposes it here. He is really pedantic and incompetent. How could the imperial court let such a person be the governor of Liaodong.

"The reason why the imperial court agreed to this matter is not that you, Sun Chengzong, are behind your back?" Qiu Hejia sneered secretly, with a look of disdain on the corner of his mouth.

"Lord Qiu is so opposed to the construction of Dalinghe City, I'm afraid he has other plans!" A gloomy voice came, but Zu Dashou who was sitting on many sides said coldly.

"The old man stands up straight and sits firmly. But speaking with a public heart, what right does your Zu Dashou have to say about me again?" Qiu Hejia opened his eyes and glanced at Zu Dashou with disdain. Such a martial artist doesn't make sense The way to govern the country, if you don't have a little force, how can you touch the court, hum, when the world is at peace, you must ask your majesty to tidy up the court and drive out such petty people.

"Public heart?" Zu Dashou couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, he cupped his hands towards Qiu Hejia, and said, "May I ask Mr. Qiu, if Dalinghe City is to be built, where does this servant come from?"

"Naturally, the conscripts are enlisted to expel those criminals." Qiu Hejia said without thinking.He didn't know what was going on, but there was something bad in his heart.

"Criminal? Hehe, Mr. Qiu, I heard that there is a criminal hiding in your mansion! And that criminal has a very close relationship with the Governor! Do you want to block the construction of Dalinghe City so that you don't want your son of a family friend to go? Work!" Zu Dashou said coldly.

"You, Zu Dashou, you are presumptuous." Qiu Hejia finally couldn't bear it anymore, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, he stood up, and said to Sun Chengzong: "Master Sun, Zu Dashou has evil intentions and framed him Sir, please look into it clearly." Faced with this situation, Qiu Hejia had no choice but to bow his head and call out to his lord.

"Here, is what General Zu said true?" Sun Chengzong asked after pondering for a while.

"I wonder if my lord remembers Li Gu, the prefect of Huai'an?" Qiu Hejia thought for a while and asked again.

"Of course the old man knows. He is a rare and loyal man." Sun Chengzong thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Dedicate it! You must know that the laws of the country are hard to tolerate!"

"This?" Qiu Hejia frowned, with a look of embarrassment on his face.In the end, he gave Zu Dashou a vicious glance, and Zu Dashou showed a complacent look on his face.

"Xianzhi, if this matter is reported to the imperial court, I am afraid that those censors will not let you go." Sun Chengzong shook his head and persuaded: "However, don't worry, your nephew is an upright official after all, old man Just let me do some casual work in Dalinghe City, but in a few months, I will be back when the time comes. The old man heard that you have also trained a guard, and you can let them protect you when the time comes That nephew is fine. This will fulfill your brotherhood, and no one in the world will dare to say anything about you."

"Hey, my lord, please tell me." Qiu Hejia nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Hmph! On the surface, this Qiu Hejia is righteous and dignified, and a gentleman, but when it comes to his official position, he can even abandon the only son of his sworn brother, that's all." Zu Dashou's eyes became more disdainful. .It seemed that Qiu Hejia also felt the eyes of everyone in the hall. With his eyes lowered, he cupped his hands at Sun Chengzong, and then went out of the hall and returned to his mansion.
