Chapter 78

Liang Xiao was loud and resolute, completely different from the humility just now.

Liu Che's interest increased greatly, and he was even more excited than seeing the legendary shooting sound skills.He jumped off the horse, walked up to Liang Xiao, purposely put on a stern face, and put on a stern look. "Liang Xiao, although the imperial court does not prohibit the people from discussing state affairs, if you slander the imperial court and pretend to be big in order to gain fame, you will get into trouble. You should be cautious in your words and deeds, don't you hear the disease from your mouth, and disaster From the mouth?"

Liang Xiao smiled. "I'm just talking about what I've seen and what I've heard, and I don't dare to speak out."

"Oh, tell me." Liu Che pointed the whip in his hand, Wei Qing and Zhang Cigong immediately took the seat from the horse's back, spread it on the ground, Liu Che sat down, and called Liang Xiao to sit on the opposite seat. "What did you see and what did you hear, let's hear it."

Liang Xiao was not modest either, he asked Tu Niuer to pick a few melons, washed them and cut them open, and invited Liu Che and others to taste them.While eating melons, he sorted out his thoughts and prepared a draft.If the sound shooting skill allowed Liu Che to see his brave side, then the next words should let Liu Che see his insight, leave a good impression, and distinguish him from ordinary warriors.

However, he can't go too far.If you talk too much, firstly, it does not match his identity, and secondly, the shallow talk will make Liu Che suspicious, or think that he has no city, likes to show off, and talks loudly when he meets everyone.Maybe he will be favored for a while, but after a long time, it is hard to guarantee that it will have the opposite effect.

It is far less secure to tell the whole story as soon as we meet. It is far less secure to increase understanding a little bit.

Liang Xiao thought about it, but didn't say too much.He only talked about two things: one is that thieves are rampant in Danyang in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other is that the tyrants of Jiangdu State annexed the land and arbitrarily judged the village.These two incidents were all experienced by him personally, so it is more credible to say it, and it is also in line with his identity, so it will not arouse Liu Che's suspicion.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he unceremoniously sued the Hu family.Pointing to Tu Niu'er, he said to Liu Che, "Niu'er was my childhood playmate. His father worked hard all his life, and he was rewarded by the government for farming. But now, he has no land to cultivate. His family's land is owned by the Hu family. Bought it at a low price..."

Liu Che listened quietly, without expressing any comments, but bit his cheeks a little tight.

"Who doesn't know the dangers of war? But wouldn't it be a pity to learn martial arts and only use it for hunting. Besides, even if I want to be a farmer in peace and stability, I don't have this opportunity. The 70 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the world Dazhi, but now the rich are full of fields, and the poor have no place to stand. Apart from joining the army, I have no other way out.

Liu Che talked with Liang Xiao for a long time, listening to him talk about Jiangdu Kingdom's affairs, asking about Jiangdu's folklore, and asking the people's evaluation of Jiangdu King Liu Fei and Jiangdu Minister Zheng at that time.Liang Xiao unceremoniously praised Zheng Shi for a few words, and said in no uncertain terms that he had rescued Li Rongqing from the Hu family and escaped from Jiangdu Kingdom with Zheng's help.

Liang Xiao was very restrained, and didn't say too many off-topic words, so as not to arouse Liu Che's suspicion.

Liu Che sat for a long time, and finally invited Liang Xiao into the mansion again.Liang Xiao refused.Liu Che didn't say anything more, and disappeared into the night surrounded by Li Danghu and others.When they broke up, Han Yan enthusiastically challenged Liang Xiao to a fight, and would compete with Liang Xiao in riding and shooting.

After bidding farewell to Liu Che and his party, Liang Xiao tidied up and returned to the melon shed.Li Rong counted the lavender, laid out the straw mat, and was waiting for Liang Xiao.The lavender was choking and smoked the eyes. Li Rongqing was so smoked that tears flowed, and she kept wiping the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.There is no way, there are too many mosquitoes in the melon shed, and there are no mosquito nets in this era, only smoke.

Tu Niu'er was sitting by the side, holding half a slice of melon, eating it dripping with juice.

"Who was it just now, talking for so long?"

"Marquis of Pingyang." Liang Xiao explained a few words, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of Li Rongqing's eyes, and said with a smile, "Persist for a few more days, we will move soon."

"Why?" Li Rongqing's eyes lit up. "Are you going to the Marquis of Pingyang?"

"I don't want to go to the small Pingyanghou's mansion." Liang Xiao concealed: "The Pingyanghou married a princess and has a close relationship with the emperor. If he mentions me in front of the emperor, will I not be able to rise to the top? "

"Really?" Li Rongqing was dubious.

"Why am I lying to you?" Liang Xiao pushed Li Rongqing. "It's getting late, you should go back to sleep quickly, and tomorrow you will clean up with my mother and get ready to move."

Li Rongqing responded, turned around and left.

Liang Xiao sat cross-legged on the straw mat, carefully recalling what happened just now, and confirmed that he did not reveal any flaws.When he remembered that Li Danghu insisted on shooting at fifty paces as an excuse, he smiled, and a long-lost warmth filled his heart.Although he didn't know the reason, he knew Li Danghu's support and encouragement to him, and he was very grateful.

Tu Niu'er was already snoring loudly, sleeping like a dead pig.

……

Liu Che sat on the horseback, his body swaying back and forth with the pace of the mount.Li Danghu and Han Yan waited on him from left to right.Han Yan's eyebrows were beaming, and she was still talking about Liang Xiao's vocal shooting skills.Li Danghu remained silent, watching the surrounding environment vigilantly.

Wei Qing and the others also did not dare to neglect, they all opened their eyes wide and pricked up their ears, paying close attention to every move around them.

"Master, how do you know that this person has vocal shooting skills?" Liu Che asked suddenly.

Li Danghu replied unhurriedly: "Zheng wrote a letter to my father at that time, mentioning Liang Xiao's master Huan Yuan. Huan Yuan was a general of Wu State at that time, and he once made a suggestion to the King of Wu. Let the king of Wu seize Luoyang and Aocang, but it was not adopted."

"There is such a thing?" Liu Che was taken aback, and said after a while: "This person is another Li Zuoche. Fortunately, Liu Bi didn't accept it, otherwise, let alone Zhou Yafu, even the Marquis of Huaiyin would feel troubled. Say it like this Come on, Wu Chu's defeat is also God's will."

"Your Majesty said exactly what your Majesty said." Li Danghu said again: "Huan Yuan was squeezed out by veterans because he was young, and he could not lead the army independently. He fought with King Wu in Changyi and killed many Han generals with his shooting skills. Guan Fu His father, Guan Meng, died under his arrows. Tiao Hou had no choice but to order his father to go out and fight Huan Yuan."

Liu Che's spirit lifted. "how?"

"My father narrowly won." Li Danghu smiled wryly: "After many years, my father still remembers this man vividly, calling him a rare enemy in his life. His shooting skills are simply amazing and amazing."

"How about Liang Xiao's sound shooting skills?"

"He's just getting started." Li Danghu paused, and then said: "However, Liang Xiao has only been practicing archery for more than a year, and the rapid progress is astonishing. Given time, this person's realm may be higher than Huanyuan. "

Liu Che frowned and laughed silently. "It's hard to say about archery, but there is at least one thing he can't match with Huan Yuan."

Li Danghu was puzzled.

"He won't be as good at archery as Huan Yuan is, but he's not good at knowing people. Otherwise, he won't refuse the Huainan Palace's recruitment. Although he is young, he knows right from wrong and has his own opinions. Just like him in archery, he is focused and The goal is clear." Liu Che pondered for a moment, and then said: "The householder, in a few days, you lead him to see General Li, and ask General Li to teach|teach him/teach him."

"Wei!" Li Danghu bowed in response.
