Chapter 35 Solicitation

Chapter 35 Solicitation
Huangmiao Village.

Gao Changshou carried a quilt into the house, and said to Gao Mingyue, "I bought it from the house next door, and it was just washed and dried."

"Thank you, brother."

Gao Mingyue was pounding medicine with a wooden bowl. She had done some research on herbal medicine over the years, and planned to prepare more wound medicine for everyone to use on the way.

Gao Changshou put down the quilt, and said, "Go to bed early and rest at ease for the night, we are next door."

"it is good."

Gao Changshou turned to leave, but stopped when he reached the door, thought for a while, then turned around and asked, "What do you think of Li Xia?"

Gao Mingyue put down the pounding bowl, lightly touched the silver chain on her right wrist with her left hand, and said in a soft voice: "I just met him not long ago, he has already saved us twice, he is a very powerful person."

"Yes." Gao Changshou said, "By the way, you have covered your face all the time. Has he seen you? Do you think he..."

Gao Mingyue was slightly taken aback when she heard this, and then seemed a little annoyed.

"Second brother, if you want to buy people's hearts, go and have an open and honest discussion with them. After the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, you finally want to treat me as an object?"

After she finished speaking, Liu Mei frowned slightly, and turned her head away.

This temper came inexplicably.

Gao Changshou didn't know why she was suddenly annoyed, so he could only smile apologetically, and said, "I didn't mean that, but I just wanted to ask you, if you don't like it..."

"That's dislike, there's no need for second brother to ask."

Gao Changshou was helpless, and said: "You have been like this since you were a child, you usually have no temper at all, and your petty temper has been made on your second brother all your life."

"If the second brother treats me as an object, I won't show my temper to you in the future."

Gao Mingyue's words were no longer contradictory, her voice dropped.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, it's just a question, it's fine if you don't like it. No matter how bad I am, I won't make you random."

Gao Mingyue thought for a while, took back her temper, and said slowly: "Second brother, if you really want to attract others, you should make it clear that Dali's hope of restoring the country is [-]%, and what can you give to others after you succeed. You have always been A gentleman, a gentleman is sincere, even if the country perishes, he should not lose the demeanor of the Gao family."

Her voice was clear and cold, but it also made Gao Changshou Sixu clearer.

"Okay." Gao Changshou said: "Well, let's set off early tomorrow. It's best to meet Li Xia before Nie Zhongyou. I'll have a talk with him, be honest and sincere, okay?"

"Ah."

Gao Changshou walked to the outer hall and sighed.

Bai Cangshan stepped forward and asked softly, "Young Master?"

"Forget it, she doesn't like it."

"This... shouldn't be..."

"Who knows what she is thinking, she is bored all day long."

As Gao Changshou said, he and his three retainers spread thatch on the floor.

This rented private house has so many rooms and bedding, and he was afraid that his sister would be unsafe if he was far away, so he could only deal with it like this and rest for a while.

……

In the room over there, Gao Mingyue sat alone for a while, not understanding why she was suddenly annoyed.

Sullenly, she reached out to remove the face towel, and suddenly remembered that Li Xia hadn't told that story for two days...

~~
The next day, Gao Changshou got up early, and he wanted to talk to Li Xia before Nie Zhongyou.

They made an appointment to meet at a place called Gu Qiao at noon, and Gao Changshou arrived more than half an hour early.

He had calculated that Guiji Town was the closest to Gu Qiao, and Li Xia would arrive earlier than Nie Zhongyou.

However, after looking forward to it, eight people including Lin Zi and Liu Jinsuo arrived, but they did not see Li Xia and Nie Zhongyou.

"What about them?"

"Brother and Brother Li are chatting in the back!" Liu Jinsuo said loudly.

……

Li Xia was walking by the small river, picked up a small stone and threw it in the water.

"If you ask me what I mean, we have only traveled half the distance and we have more than half of the casualties. It is best to turn back."

"I can't go back until I'm done."

"Too dangerous."

Nie Zhongyou said firmly, "No matter how dangerous it is, we have to keep going."

Li Xia said: "I don't even know what to do in Kaifeng this time."

Nie Zhongyou stopped, looked at Li Xia, and asked, "Lu Fengtai and Gao Changshou both want to recruit you, what do you think?"

"It's too small. Dali is too small, and Lu Fengtai's officials are too small."

"Why didn't you escape along the way?"

"My father is in your hands."

"No, your father is missing."

"Oh." Li Xia was silent for a while, thought for a while, and asked, "Why did he disappear?"

"The Li family is on fire, I don't know anything else."

"Oh."

"You don't have to hide it, I don't intend to care who your father and son offended." Nie Zhongyou said: "I just ask you, why didn't you run away?"

hidden?

Li Xia glanced at Nie Zhongyou with complicated and innocent eyes.

"Where am I going to escape?"

Nie Zhongyou thought that it might not be impossible for you to hide your name incognito, the premise is... don't be so particular about food, drink, housing and transportation.

"Is there anything you want?" Nie Zhongyou asked, and added, "Apart from eggs and milk, what do you really want?"

"It's been a long time since I ate beef." Li Xia murmured in a low voice, and asked back, "Will you be promoted after this mission is over?"

"Huaizuo or a deputy in a certain route army in Sichuan should be in charge." Nie Zhongyou said, "Do you want to be an official?"

"Ah."

"I'll find you the boss of a certain county in Liangzhe."

Nie Zhongyou seemed to have improved, and finally stopped saying "Your parents are in my hands".

"No, I'm the same as you, I hate civilian officials." Li Xia said: "A military officer, but don't be under the jurisdiction of Lu Fengtai. I want the kind... who leads troops alone in a small place, and the official is fine. "

"Do you want to join the army and serve the country?"

"That's fine."

"can."

"Can you be the master?"

"This is a great achievement. Let's put it this way, I, the Marquis of Du Yu, was promoted just before departure."

"Oh?"

Nie Zhongyou pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Although I took Jia Shixian's warrant this time, I am actually from Prime Minister You. He sent me here, and even helped Taiwei Lu with an assignment."

It is quite complicated to say this, and Li Xia asked a few more questions before he understood.

Jia Shixian, Li Xia has long known that this person is also very famous in later generations, his name is Jia Sidao, and his style name is Shixian. He is currently serving as a political adviser, equivalent to a deputy prime minister.

Nie Zhongyou seemed a little disrespectful to Jia Sidao, calling him by his name.On the contrary, it was the right prime minister, Li Xia asked, and Nie Zhongyou said, "The right prime minister's surname is Cheng, taboo Yuanfeng", looking very respectful.

Cheng Yuanfeng, the current Prime Minister of the Great Song Dynasty and the Privy Councilor.

According to Nie Zhongyou, he used to be Cheng Youxiang's guard and confidant, and was dispatched by two prime ministers and a Taiwei. After returning, he would definitely be able to meet Li Xia's requirements.

A look of pride, "You see, my backstage is very hard, and I have contributed a lot to this."

But for Li Xia, Nie Zhongyou might as well not say what he said.

On the contrary, Li Xia felt a little disappointed, because he always thought that Nie Zhongyou belonged to Jia Shuxiang, and he kept guessing that Jia Shuxiang was Jia Sidao.

He doesn't know much about history, but there is a simple truth, people with great reputation in history are generally more powerful than people with less fame.

He vaguely felt that this matter seemed to be... Jia Sidao issued a warrant, maybe it was just a formal warrant, and sent Cheng Yuanfeng's confidant to the north to handle errands.If the matter failed, it was Cheng Yuanfeng who died; when the matter was accomplished, the credit was due to Jia Sidao.

……

"If it is for righteousness, this act will make great contributions to the Song Dynasty; if it is for personal future, with the support of two chief executives, you will be able to meet your requirements. Li Xia, you promised to help me complete this matter, and I will ask you last today." Once again, can I trust you?" Nie Zhongyou asked again.

Li Xia put away the look of disappointment in his eyes.

Let Cheng Yuanfeng be Cheng Yuanfeng, although he can't compare to Jia Sidao, but he doesn't know where he is compared to Lu Fengtai and Gao Changshou.

He finally nodded and said: "You fished me out of the death row. I said, you give me life, and I will help you die."

"That's good." Nie Zhongyou said: "The purpose of our trip to Kaifeng this time, I have never told you before... Now I can tell you that Mongolia will inevitably invade the south again."

"Ah."

"There is a great prince in the north who wants to rebel against the Mongolian country. He intends to take advantage of the war between the Song Dynasty and Mongolia to stand on his own. He sent someone to Kaifeng to contact us. He will give us important information and secretly discuss with us. The Council..."

"Not the Zhang family?"

"It's not the Zhang family." Nie Zhongyou said: "I don't know who it is, it's a secret. The two chief executives only told me to get the information back. There are two pieces of information, one is given to us by the other party. The military situation; the other is the strategic plan of the opponent and us to cooperate with Fameng, both of which have an extremely important effect on the current situation..."

"If it's really that important, why not send more elites?"

"I'm very elite."

"..."

The two talked for a long time.

Finally, Nie Zhongyou said: "The Marquis of Duyu has the right to organize the army during wartime, and I will grant you the temporary replacement of Jiang Xing. Let's continue going north, don't back down, okay?"

"Ah."

"You keep your promises, and so do I. Believe me."

"understood……"

~~
Today, when the two of them walked to Guqiao, Li Xia felt Gao Changshou's eager eyes from afar.

He knew what Gao Changshou was thinking, but it was obviously too late.

The early bird may not get the worm.

When they met each other, before they could speak, Lin Zi, who had gone to explore the way ahead, had galloped back.

"It's not good, all the official roads have been blocked, and the interrogation is very strict. I'm afraid we won't be able to get through..."
