Huang Xiaokuai's 600 riders were about to enter Dongfeng County, but he still couldn't see the figure of His Royal Highness, even if Lingzhou Deputy General Han Laoshan was still calm with the presence of an old god, the Captain Pearl also stopped to wash the horses in the cavalry Huang Xiaokuai didn’t know if Dong Yueqi and the other lieutenants were like this. Anyway, he had an old turtle in the city who kept in secret contact with him all the year round. Can "coincidentally" bump into several sides. Han Laoshan, who was watching from a distance in the dark, withdrew his gaze, saw the elite scout riding away suddenly, and admired Huang Xiaokuai a little more in his heart. Han Laoshan's martial arts cultivation is far inferior to that of his lesser-known junior brother Xu Yanbing, but Han Laoshan believes that he has no hope of reaching the top of the rivers and lakes, so he puts more ambitions on the frontier battlefield. The Liang pattern also has some unique insights. The climate is favorable and the people are harmonious, and the North Liang has been widely criticized. However, in Han Laoshan's view, the North Liang is narrow and barren, and the people's livelihood is poor, but this kind of disadvantage is not a kind of Fortunately, there is a saying in the city and the countryside that "poor efforts are made". Beiliang makes enemies all around, which invisibly creates the bravery of the people of Beiliang. Relatively rich in the south of the Yangtze River, the people of Beiliang who grew up in poor mountains and rivers are really brave. If it weren't for the fact that they are not afraid of death, how can there be such a rich source of soldiers on the border of Beiliang? No matter how brave and skilled soldiers are, if they are thrown into a stable place where there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and they spend more than ten or twenty years of morale, they will not be called brave soldiers. This is also an important reason why Guangling King Zhao Yi is not as good as Yanchi Wang Zhao Bing. Located in the armpit of the imperial court, Yan Chi Dao is like the right foot of the imperial court. It has to walk every day and deal with the barbarians in southern Xinjiang. Naturally, the soles of a person's feet are rougher and thicker than the skin under the armpit. Han Laoshan knows that he only needs to wait until His Royal Highness leaves Lingzhou, and he will become a powerful general in one of the three states of Youliangling in Beiliang Road. For the time being, he is just like a person who takes care of the backyard of Beiliang, but when the nephew Chen Zhibao who deceived his master and exterminated his ancestors leaves Beijing and goes to the Western Shu Road, it will be a bloody slaughter at the border. For Chen Zhibao who betrayed the teacher As an uncle, Han Laoshan can't talk about how to bear grudges. There are rules in the world, and brother Wang Xiu's death was not as wronged as the outside world imagined. Han Laoshan laughed dumbfounded when he thought of this. The junior brother Wu Jinling who died in the Vajra Realm, their school has successively produced the Spear Immortal King Xiu, Xu Yanbing who is even better than the elder brother, Han Laoshan Zhixuan Realm, Wu Jinling and the New Confucian Saint Chen Zhibao In the future, maybe there will be another blue bird who has taken over the handshake gun and will be among the first rank. In just two generations and two generations, six first ranks have sprung up. A master of quality, this is even more powerful than a battle between father and son, two champions and a family third. Liyang and Beimang, Wu Family Jianzhong and Qijian Yuefu can stand side by side in the rivers and lakes. Han Laoshan wondered if he should ask His Royal Highness to pull out the banner of martial arts from the Wang family. Maybe it would attract many masters of the rivers and lakes to enter Beiliang and join the Wang family. In the future, there might be a Wang family gun in the Beiliang military brigade. Royal Party".
The six hundred riders stopped for a while in Dongfeng County, soldiers and horses did not enter the city, and stationed at the same place to rest and rectify, Huang Xiaokuai just asked a dozen elite riders to escort the carriage, and found a high-end restaurant to make the woman more comfortable Somehow, Huang Xiaokuai is not in the officialdom, it's not that he doesn't understand, it's just that he disdains to be with those colleagues who are sorry for the armor of Beiliang. Since this woman has a deep relationship with His Highness, and they are not in a hurry, they are happy to go along with it. It's just a long way off, when Huang Xiaokuai saw the figure of the carriage at the gate of the city filled with wind and snow, besides his pearl cavalry in plain clothes, a large group of local knights came behind him, but he couldn't escape the anger of the dandy in fresh clothes. The vulgar way of thinking, and a large group of gangster sects swarming in, Huang Xiaokuai spat hard on the horseback, how dare these bastards rob His Highness? Those Gaoliang disciples who were fighting eagles and dogs also had sharp eyesight, and when they suddenly saw this carriage driving towards Huang Xiaokuai, who was wearing a sword and armor, they immediately reined in their horses, and hurriedly told their accomplices not to act recklessly. The horse galloped wildly, busy making fun for the young masters in the city to rob their wives, and didn't have time to stop the horseshoes. They didn't realize the situation was wrong until the simple decorated carriage was only twenty steps away from Huang Xiaokuai and other generals. Miao, just about to turn the horse's head, Huang Xiaokuai, who was sitting high on the horse's back, looked sullenly and shook his head. An archer beside him, who was outstanding in physical strength among the Pearl Cavalry Army, had no expression on his face, and pulled out a feathered arrow from his quiver. , drew the bow and shot, with a bang, the feathered arrow pierced through the air, pierced through the skull, and nailed into the snow. The pile of pale snow beside the post road was instantly splashed with a pile of bright red by the blood. The other two martial arts disciples wished that their mounts did not have an extra pair of horseshoes, and they were still shot to death one by one. Without exception, they were shot through the head with an arrow and died on the spot.
In Beiliang's jurisdiction, who would dare to compete with a general with real military achievements
Huang Xiaokuai clamped the horse's belly expressionlessly, and the bay red steed under his crotch trotted forward, took off the Beiliang knife from his waist, and pointed at the leader with the scabbard, a young man in fur, that guy's expression was cloudy , finally mustered up the courage to ride out slowly, and was about to declare his family name and name his father, general, so as not to be flooded by this foreign general wearing the school captain's armor and flood the Dragon King Temple.
Huang Xiaokuai said lukewarmly: "The general of Lingzhou has issued an order to the six counties of Lingzhou that five or more riders are not allowed to ride fast horses in the street. Anyone who violates the law will be imprisoned in the punishment room for fifty lashes for the first offender. Execute on the spot!"
The young master didn't take it seriously, but now that the three of them were killed on the spot, and seeing that the lieutenant had a strong army behind him, and there were cavalry one after another, it didn't look like an ordinary army, so he could only obediently smiled and said: "This general, the boy Gu Runde is a first-time offender today. , then take the initiative to go to the Yamen to surrender, and hope that the general will calm down."
Huang Xiaokuai paused for a moment, and asked, "Your name is Gu Runde? Who are you, Gu Yunshi, General Xiwu of Dongfeng County?"
Brother Young Master was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "It's the boy's father, I wonder who the general is?"
Huang Xiaokuai smiled sinisterly, put away the Beiliang knife and put it back on his waist to hang it properly, raised his arm and waved it. Brother Young Master was stunned, and another arrow flew towards him in the wind and snow. Just when he thought he died at the door of his house for no reason, his eyes blurred, his whole body trembled, he swallowed hard, and saw the ruthless foreign school captain standing beside him. Looking at a strange young man, holding the feathered arrow that was supposed to kill him. Captain Huang Xiaokuai dismounted quickly, not only him, but all the Pearl Cavalrymen dismounted and stood at the same time, standing like a javelin stuck in the snow, respectful, with fiery eyes. Huang Xiaokuai didn't call out the identity of His Royal Highness beside him, but when he saw that stupid goose so fat that he sat on the horse and didn't move, he was about to draw his sword to kill himself in anger. The dilapidated clothes are not as beautiful and expensive as Gu Runde's young son Shaking his head, he tossed the feather arrow back high, which happened to be thrown to the expert archer, and said with a gentle smile to the eldest son of the Gu family who finally came to his senses and rolled off his horse and knelt down on the ground: "I heard that you, Gu Runde, used to be with a group of The out-of-town dandies from Yanzhou got into a dispute and treated them badly. Afterwards, they said that whoever dares to come to our Beiliang to play wild, you will teach anyone to death. Poor your father for this. General Zhou paid a lot of money in private, Mr. Gu, I wonder if you still have this backbone in the past two years?"
Gu Runde raised his head, his mind turned sharply, while guessing the identity of this person in his stomach, he found a way to smooth things over for himself and said: "Some, some, this is just like our Royal Highness, His Highness said that he is also a dude My son, if you dare to point the finger at men from other places, you can say that you are in the highly competitive business of dandyism, and you have become a master. This time it was Gu Runde who was reckless, slapped his face swollen and pretended to be fat, thinking of escorting Mrs. Yongrong for a ride , absolutely not wanting to do the vile business of robbing people, but just asking the lady in the carriage to leave safely."
Gu Runde has been watching the words and expressions. When he saw the man smiling and nodding, he finally let go of the boulder hanging in his heart. He heard the mellow voice of his peers and said with a smile: "Forget it today, go back to the city and talk to your cronies and friends, and ride horses in the city." , it is only allowed to run like ordinary people, to disturb the people in the street with more than five riders, not to mention hitting people, as long as they are found, they will be punished according to the newly promulgated rules. , It used to be able to use money to communicate with gods, but it won't work in the future. By the way, Gu Runde, remember to tell your father Gu Yunshi that I used to steal his wine bag when I was a child. If so. As for you, Gu Runde, if you want to harm the little dandy in the village, you can join the army. I will plead with the pearl captain next to you, and I will open the back door for you."
Mr. Gu slapped, and kowtowed heavily on the ground of the post road, "See Your Highness, Your Highness! Gu Runde, thank Your Highness Hong En!"
But Gu Runde knew that his father, the greatest honor in his life, was when he served as the captain of Beiliang King, and had a romantic relationship with his young son His Royal Highness. Who in Dongfeng County didn't know General Xiwu in these years Talking about this trivial matter all day long, consciously or not, treating this as a big gold medal for avoiding death? Otherwise, based on Gu Yunshi's shallow background of quitting the Northern Liang Army early due to injury, how could he impress the county guard? As a guest? Gu Runde knelt down all the time, until the young man who looked nothing like a general of Lingzhou and even less like His Highness Shizi rode on a horse and led the cavalry quickly disappeared from sight, then slowly got up full of fear, Gu Runde Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, it was a blessing in disguise. After hesitating for a moment, he told his brother from the top gang in the city that he would spend 800 taels of silver to bury the three of them. In fact, that guy was scared out of his wits long ago, and got into trouble with the guy who was gradually walking on Beiliang Road. His Royal Highness, who has erected a monstrous power, don’t say anything about compensation money, you are lucky if you don’t get ransacked by the whole family, how dare you ask for that bullshit money at this moment, eight hundred taels is a huge amount of money, but you have to have it Life flower is not it? The more Gu Runde, who has always been stingy, insisted on giving the money, the more terrified this gangster brother was, and mistakenly thought that Mr. Gu was playing an official trick to abandon the pawn to protect the car. Gu Runde was generous once in a while. Parents gave up on their disgruntled expressions, patted their shoulders, and said with a smirk: "Brother Liu, brother, I won His Highness's favor this time, and I will be a Beiliang warrior in armor and sword in the future, although most of them are not in Dongfeng County. You gangsters, but you black water gangs don’t want to turn a blind eye to those dirty jobs that come with money, brothers, so don’t delay my future.”
Liu Tingxin slandered the ruthlessness of the general's younger brother, and said with a dry smile: "Brother knows the seriousness, how can I delay Brother Gu's bright future, so I will go and explain it to the leader, and if nothing else, stop the human trafficking work first. "
Gu Runde leaned closer and said with a smile: "There is still a lot to do in Lingzhou after reselling people from Beiliang. If there is a chance in the future, brother, I will help you Heishui gang to say a few words to His Highness. In the past, my father would No matter how much you don’t ask, I hate you gangsters from the bottom of my heart, and in the future, I will definitely take care of you Blackwater Gang, and you also know that my father can also talk to the county guard.”
Liu Tingxin immediately became enlightened, ecstatic, clasped his fists and said in a low voice: "This way of making money, I will try my best to ask the boss for a share!"
Gu Runde narrowed his eyes and asked with a low laugh, "Who is four and who is six?"
Liu Tingxin wished he could slap himself in the face, annoyed that he didn't say it was 50-50, tried his best to hide his pained expression, bowed his head and smiled and said, "Of course it's brother Gu, the fourth of the Blackwater Gang."
Gu Runde laughed loudly, turned back and rode on the horse, looked at Liu Tingxin who was about to clean up the mess, pointed at himself, then stretched out four fingers, signaling that he only wanted the four of four or six. Then he turned his horse's head around, no longer daring to raise his whip, but slowly returned to the city.
Relieved, Liu Tingxin scolded his mother quietly, and said with emotion: "Why are the officials better at doing business than the other? Lying down and taking advantage of them can make people miss them. It all started from the womb. Are you wondering if this business is going to work?"
Liu Tingxin finally looked towards the end of the post road, thinking that our Royal Highness is really good at it, could it be that he really killed the fifth raccoon dog in Beimang Tibing Mountain? Hey, I have to go back and talk to the gang brothers, I also saw His Royal Highness's appearance up close and personal, well, I told them that I was only ten steps away from His Highness, no, five steps!
Xu Fengnian, Xu Yanbing, Han Laoshan, and Huang Xiaokuai rode their horses together on the post road. Of course, he would not bother to think about Gu Runde and Liu Tingxin's respective snakes and rats. Master Li Yishan has long said that one person is in a high position , What you do is nothing more than the word gathering power, the rules and the orthodox people's hearts are all covered in it. Only when thousands of streams converge can an unstoppable river be formed. Whether it is Zhong Hongwu's lineage or Yan Wenluan on the border, they are like lakes and lakes that are far away from this river. Dig a river channel, lead it into the big river, and twist it into a rope. As for whether this river can be like a broken bamboo, rush to the sea in one go, and clean up the world, after all, it is a matter of human effort. The terrain of Beiliang is condescending, if not for the restraint of Beimang, it would have been an excellent offensive for the lion to fight the rabbit to sit north and look south.
There was a secret report delivered by a spy from Zhegui County, and the folding fan boy swaggered into the county, not afraid of being surrounded by the government at all. Previously, because he was afraid of scaring the snake, he did not stop the pair of masters and servants. A few cavalry troops who arrived at the designated position , and the government soldiers who are eager to try are all in place, and they can close the net only after His Royal Highness gives an order.
Xu Fengnian sat back in the carriage, guessing what other strengths this rising star of the world had, apart from his martial arts, he could challenge the entire Beiliang Road.
Bored, Pei Nanwei lifted the curtain, let the wind and snow blow on his face, and said lazily: "If I were that person, I would definitely wear a layer of skin from the Liyang court. Nine times out of ten, but don't forget that the chief officer of the Golden Hazel Weaving Bureau is still an official who can still be dispatched directly from Liyang. At that time, even if you mobilize your troops and send troops to surround that person, he will end up with nothing. With this identity, do you want to kill or not? Kill? Beiliang is equivalent to rebellion, is it possible that you plan to echo with Xichu Fuguo? If you don't kill, the face of your Royal Highness will be completely lost. No matter how you look at it, you Xu Fengnian I lost."
Xu Fengnian frowned, then stretched his brows, turned his head and glanced at the beautiful woman named Rouge, who was calm and breezy, nodded and said: "It's really possible that this is the case. This trip is finally not in vain to take you out to relax."
Pei Nanwei put down the curtain, looked at him, and said indifferently, "Do you dare to fight with him?"
Xu Fengnian, who changed into clean clothes carefully, said with a smile, "Don't be aggressive, I'm dead, and it won't do you any good."
Pei Nanwei sneered and asked, "Are you sure?"
After Xu Fengnian changed his clothes, he took out an ebony hairpin from his hair, stretched out his fingers and combed it casually, and was about to re-tie his hair when Pei Nanwei actually moved to sit beside him, holding his hair with one hand and holding it with the other.
Xu Fengnian was stunned for a moment, and joked, "It's rare that you can still serve people."
Pei Nanwei said calmly: "It's really like a reed in autumn, gray and white."
When Xu Fengnian carefully rolled up her hair, her shoulders were pressed by a lump of plumpness, and she said: "It's really like a persimmon in autumn, it's heavy."
Pei Nanwei stopped her movements and saw that he was sitting upright from the beginning to the end, even more dignified than an upright gentleman, so she just shrank back calmly and continued to help him with his hair.
Xu Fengnian closed his eyes and said, "Sooner or later, you will be willing to climb onto my bed."
She hummed, "When I grow old, maybe I will disgust you so much."
Xu Fengnian laughed it off.
After she tied up her hair and fastened the ebony hairpin, she lay down before she woke up, pillowed on her crossed legs sitting cross-legged, and fell into a sound sleep.
This journey has been handled by Xu Yanbing terribly, and he is really exhausted.
Pei Nanwei stared down at the face that was close at hand, probably hesitating to spit out his face or slap him, with a complicated expression.
Xu Fengnian really fell asleep, turned sideways, facing her.
Pei Nanwei stretched out his hand and gently stroked his temples, trembling involuntarily for no reason.
This man seems to be the co-owner of Beiliang's 300,000 cavalry in the future.
It was as if it was in the palm of her hand.
Pei Nanwei was intoxicated by this strange feeling.
She quietly stretched out her finger, and gently wiped the center of his brow.
Xu Fengnian suddenly opened his eyes, seeing her bowed her head, her eyes were not dodging, Xu Fengnian slowly closed his eyes again.
Pei Nanwei bent down, stopped her pair of swollen and ripe "persimmons" with one hand, and did not touch his cheeks, while rubbing ears and temples between sympathizers, he said in his ear: "Can you really bear it?"
Xu Fengnian remained silent.
The embarrassing woman pushed away this arrogant but pretending to be noble.
Xu Fengnian lost his comfortable pillow and lay down again peacefully.
Pei Nanwei suddenly seemed to have discovered a big secret, and smiled happily: "Is your place abolished?"
Xu Fengnian glared at her angrily, and seeing that she was gloating, he pulled her onto him.
Then the Princess Jing'an soon realized that she was greatly disappointed, her face flushed, she struggled to "get off the horse", and shrank in the corner of the carriage, hiding far away.
The corners of Xu Fengnian's mouth curled up, and he said triumphantly, "I'm very good at swordsmanship, right? That's what you call dirty swordsmanship very good."
