Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 489 Trap

Chapter 489 Trap (Ask for a monthly pass!)
Mount Lushan is not among the Five Sacred Mountains, but in terms of name, Mount Lushan is not inferior to the Five Sacred Mountains at all, and can even be compared with Mount Huangshan, which is known as "the return of the Five Sacred Mountains without looking at the mountains".Some people say that Mount Lu is probably the mountain with the highest appearance rate in ancient poems.Whether it is Li Bai's "flying down three thousand feet" or Su Shi's "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain", they are all well-known sentences.

Not only can Lushan be seen, it is simply a fairyland on earth. After 2000, Lushan became a summer resort for national leaders.

Now, it's mine?
After experiencing many unhappiness, Liang Xiao felt for the first time that leaving the capital was not a bad idea.In Chang'an, he was unremarkable as a Chinese doctor with two thousand shi, but here, he was the emperor's confidant from the capital, and even the eunuch had to bow his head and obey orders, carefully flattering him.

Liang Xiao agreed without hesitation, and the boat sailed straight to Mount Lushan.

-

As soon as he climbed Mount Lu, Liang Xiao was very satisfied.At the foot of the mountain is the extremely hot August stove day, but the mountain is as cool as autumn, not only the heat is gone, but even a thin cloak is necessary to feel comfortable.There is a cool breeze, the air is fresh, and there is the sound of birds singing in the lush forest. I looked up, but I couldn't find any birds.

"The location is very good. If you can build a jingshe in the mountains, study and practice martial arts from now on, and spend the rest of your life, it will be a pleasure."

Seeing that Liang Xiao was satisfied, Xia Houding finally breathed a sigh of relief. "You are joking, you are in the prime of your life, and it is a great time to serve the court. How can you retreat here? It is just a temporary rest, to recharge your batteries. It won't be long before His Majesty's edict arrives, and you still need to gallop on the battlefield. .”

Liang Xiao laughed.Wearing thousands of clothes, flattering but not wearing, this Xiahou Ding could really speak, so he flattered him calmly.

"Your Majesty, this place is called Bailu Ridge. It is at the southern foot of the mountain, only a few miles away from the shipyard. Do you see the mountain in the south? What do you think it looks like?"

Liang Xiao looked along Xia Houding's hand, and saw a mountain standing tall in the distance, flanked by two slightly lower mountains, which were still much higher than the side, which looked very much like wild geese.

"Swan goose? Eagle?"

"It's the golden phoenix." Xia Houding said with a smile, "Yuzhang belongs to the land of Chu, and the phoenix is ​​the favorite beast of the Chu people, and the golden phoenix is ​​the best among the phoenixes. This mountain is named after the golden phoenix, but the real god has never been seen. Now that the prince is here, Jinfengling is worthy of its name."

Liang Xiao glanced at Xia Houding. "Mr. Xiahoufu, I dare not accept your words. The sage uses the phoenix as a metaphor, and I am just a warrior. If I dare to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sage. If this spreads to Chang'an, I don't know how many people will sue me. "As Liang Xiao said, he glanced at Han intentionally or unintentionally.Han said he was guilty and turned his head, pretending not to know.

Xia Houding laughed out loud, looking cheerful. "Your lord only knows one thing, but not the other, let someone show off. The sage uses the phoenix as a metaphor, but it is just a Confucian putting gold on his face. In Chu, the phoenix is ​​like fire, but it is the brilliance of the sun." The divine beast, falling into the world, is the hero who assists Mingjun, and many of them are good at archery. Junhou comes from Chang'an, supervises the building of warships under the order of the emperor, and is famous for his archery skills. Wouldn't it be more like a phoenix than Confucius? "

Liang Xiao rolled his eyes and was speechless for a moment.

"Furthermore, Confucius never met the Ming Lord in his life, so he sighed that 'the phoenix and the bird will not come'. Now that the Ming Lord is alive, the phoenix and the birds sing together, which is the atmosphere of the prosperous age."

Although Liang Xiao didn't like Xia Houding very much, he had to say that this guy was really flattering.It sounds like he is praising him, but in fact he is flattering the emperor.Even if Han said to pass these words back, the emperor would not be able to find his fault, and maybe he would still be happy.

"Even so, I still don't dare to take it." Liang Xiao stood on the hillside with his hips akimbo, looking down at Peng Lize in the distance. "However, I intend to imitate the sage. There is no one to teach. The scenery here is beautiful, deep and quiet, and the transportation is very convenient. It is suitable for teaching. I want to build a Buddhist house here, and I can cultivate and read. I don’t know what the government thinks how?"

"That's great." Xia Houding applauded loudly without thinking. "Then I will choose a site nearby for the prince, send someone to build a monastery, and then arrange the hundred hectares of fertile land here. In this way, the prince can build ships and give lectures, while avoiding the disturbance of ordinary people."

Liang Xiao also thought this suggestion was good.He asked Huan Yuan what he meant.Huan Yuan didn't have any objections, he was already drunk seeing the Chu mountains and rivers, so he naturally agreed.

Seeing that Liang Xiao agreed, Xia Houding acted vigorously and made arrangements immediately.

-

Accompanied by Xia Houding, Liang Xiao came to Yuzhang Shipyard.

Yuzhang Shipyard is located on the west bank of Penglize. As Xia Houding said, it is very close to Bailuling and Jinfengling, but farther away from Nanchang, the prefecture of Yuzhang.

As soon as he entered the shipyard, Liang Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and the good mood brought by Mount Lu disappeared without a trace.

This is the largest shipyard in Dahan?
Low and dilapidated houses, dark faces, and taciturn workers. There are neatly lined up buildings in the dock, but the number is really limited, and it will not exceed ten ships.It is more accurate to say it is a shipyard than a ruin.

"Mr. Xiahou Mansion, did you go to the wrong place?"

Xia Houding shook his head affirmatively. "Junhou, how could I go wrong. That's right, this is Yuzhang Shipyard."

"Yuzhang Shipyard is the largest shipyard in my dynasty, so few people, so few ships?" Liang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry. "Fu Jun, I read the file before I came, don't take me for a fool."

"How dare, how dare." Xiahou Ding shook his head again and again, his brow sweating from fright.He asked someone to call Lou Chuan Cheng, and asked Lou Chuan Cheng to report the specific project to Liang Xiao.Lou Chuancheng was a 60-year-old man, thin and dry, he walked in a hurry and took a long time to speak before he had the strength to speak.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Liang Xiao was dumbfounded, he couldn't understand at all.

"Liang Junhou, he is a local, and he has never traveled far in his life." Xia Houding said apologetically.

Liang Xiao smiled.No matter how dull he is, he can see the problem here.He waved his hands, got up and hugged Xia Houding's shoulders, dragged Xia Houding aside. "Mr. Xiahoufu, I am a warrior, and I like to go straight. You don't have to make a detour. Tell me, who asked you to trip me up."

Xia Houding looked bewildered. "Liang Junhou, why can't I understand what you said?"

Liang Xiao let go of Xia Houding, tilted his head, and looked at his hands. "Mr. Xiahou, there is a big case recently, do you know?"

Xia Houding blinked his eyes. "I don't know which major case Liang Junhou said it was."

"The court is investigating the case of Liu Jian, Prince of Jiangdu." Liang Xiao squinted at Xia Houding. "Don't tell me you don't know. Although this case has not been announced yet, the dignitaries in Chang'an know it all."

The fine sweat on Xiahou Ding's forehead turned into big beads of sweat.He knew about this major case, and he also knew what Liang Xiao meant.The main reason why Jiangdu King Liu Jian was unlucky was the champion Hou in front of him.Compared with Liu Jian, which green onion is Xia Houding?
Liang Xiao put away his smile, and said word by word: "Who is it?"

Xia Houding bit his lip and said nothing.

"Okay, since Fujun is loyal and refuses to betray the noble man behind him, I won't make things difficult for you. You don't need to worry about the abode in Bailuling. I will pay all the money. As for Fujun, you Just wait for the emperor's edict with peace of mind. During this time, you can arrange for people to come to Beijing to ask for help, and you may have time to stop my impeachment papers."

After speaking, Liang Xiao turned around and left.

Xiahou Ding was in a hurry, hurried two steps, rushed to Liang Xiao, fell to his knees with a "plop", and kowtowed repeatedly. "Liang Junhou, Liang Junhou, please raise your hand high and spare a certain life."

"I'll forgive you, the emperor won't forgive me." Liang Xiao laughed sadly twice. "Supervising the construction of buildings and ships is to prepare for the conquest of South Vietnam. If it cannot be completed on time, the emperor will be furious, and my head will be lost. Fujun, I wonder if the big man behind you can intercede for me?"

Xia Houding was inexplicably horrified. "Your Majesty ordered the princes to supervise the construction of buildings and ships, is it to conquer South Vietnam?"

Liang Xiao laughed. "Looking at you, it seems that the nobleman you are loyal to has not told you the truth."

Xia Houding sweated like rain.No matter how stupid he was, he knew he was being tricked.The Son of Heaven is ambitious to conquer the Quartet, who dares to delay his conquest, nine heads are not enough to cut off.

Liang Xiao squatted down and patted Xia Houding on the shoulder. "Is it Prime Minister Tian?"

Xia Houding raised his head, stared at Liang Xiao, and held his breath.Seeing Xia Houding's expression, Liang Xiao knew he had guessed right. "You don't have to look at me that way. I have many enemies, but not many people dare to dig a hole for me in this matter. Prime Minister Tian should be one of them."

"I... I can't say." Xia Houding burst into tears suddenly, and kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead soon saw blood. "Liang Junhou, I was originally a warrior. I have been in the army for 30 years, and I have fought more than a hundred battles. I have not made an inch of my achievements. Seeing that I am old and weak, and my achievements are not successful, I gritted my teeth and borrowed a hundred gold coins, but I only changed the post of Yuzhang prefect..."

Liang Xiao narrowed his eyes. "Have you ever been in the army?"

"Junhou, look." Without saying a word, Xia Houding unbuttoned his belt and tore off his official uniform, revealing his bruised chest.

Liang Xiao just glanced at it, and his brows twitched involuntarily.The injuries on Xia Houding's body were criss-crossed and criss-crossed, and they definitely could not be formed in one or two battles.It seems that he is also an old soldier, but it is a pity that he was not lucky. Not only did he fail to make meritorious service, he did not even get a half-job. .

Not to mention now, even after 2000, Jiangxi is not considered an economically developed area.As the prefect of Yuzhang, there are not even a few big households who can be exploited. Tongshan is directly in charge of the Shaofu.Borrowing usury to become an official is of course not to realize any ideal in life, the top priority is to get back the money first.

"Get up and get dressed."

Xia Houding looked at Liang Xiao in a daze. "Junhou, are you... willing to spare my life?"

"Whether I can forgive you depends on your attitude." Liang Xiao went out and called Guan Fu and Han Shuo in. "I'm giving you a chance now. If you explain what happened clearly, I may be able to save you a way out. If you are still stubborn and want to resist, then I have no choice but to fulfill your wish and let you be a scapegoat .”
