Chapter 94

Jingluefu.

Still wearing sackcloth and grass shoes, Shi Zhang took a few steps, stared into Yan Fu's eyes, and asked, "Zi Jing, how do you want me to believe you?"

"Erlang." Yan Fu said, "Duanfu and I are in a dangerous situation, if I don't pretend to surrender, how can I get out of it?"

"Heh, if I don't believe you, Li Xia will believe you?"

"He doesn't really believe it either. Whether he believes it or not depends on what I do."

Shi Zhang said: "Just look at what you do, I'm afraid you really vote for Song."

"Erlang, I haven't done anything." Yan Fu said, "I just tricked Li Xia with words."

"How did Li Xia say it?"

"He asked me to meet them outside Zhuxian Town this afternoon..."

When Yan Fu finished speaking, Shi Zhang fell silent.

In fact, Yan Fu had said these words to the soldiers many times, Shi Zhang thought over and over again, and finally he was inclined to believe Yan Fu.

If it wasn't for Yan Fu's astuteness, he, Shi Erlang, wouldn't have had a close friendship with him.

"Respect first, don't do this." Yao Sui said, "I believe in Zijing. If Zijing hadn't pretended to surrender at that time, Li Xia probably wouldn't have let us go."

"Well, if Zijing is really a fake, he is capable of getting out of trouble." Shi Zhang patted the shoulders of the two friends, and said: "I am cautious in doing things, and asked a few more questions, so don't blame me for it."

Yan Fu said: "It is right to ask a few more questions, I dare not blame Erlang."

"Okay." Yao Sui said, "Jingxian, Brother Zijing and I stayed up all night. We are really tired, so we will go back first."

Shi Zhang said: "That's fine, but... just rest here with me? One is to fear that you will be caught by Li Xia again, and the other is to save those from the Zhang family from coming to interrogate you again. How about it?"

"So best."

"Xie Erlang." Yan Fu answered with cupped hands.

"Zijing, brother Zijing, are you angry?" Shi Zhang put on a smiling face again, and said, "I just asked a few more questions, but you have become alienated from me?"

"No." Yan Fu forced a smile and said, "How could you get angry with Erlang?"

He still had a wound on his shoulder, but there was some intimacy on his tired face...

Soon, Yao Sui and Yan Fu arrived in the wing room of the back office of Jinglue Mansion.

Yao Sui watched the door being closed, but sighed slightly, cupped his hands, and said softly, "Brother Xie Zijing is covering for my uncle."

Yan Fu shook his head, and said, "Duke Yao may not have colluded with Zhao Song. Duanfu doesn't have to listen to Li Xia's words."

Yao Sui looked a little confused, and murmured: "But Li Xia was obviously looking for his uncle when he arrived in Kaifeng, and the servant is old..."

"In the world, you can't make a judgment just by listening to his words and watching his deeds." Yan Fu said: "It's just like I told Li Xia that I would return to the Song Dynasty, but in fact it was just to get out of trouble. The same is true for Yao Gong, even if the old man he took in Guizhen is from Song Dynasty, even if you send information...it may not be to collude with Zhao Song."

"That's right, given my uncle's loyalty to the King of Monan, it's hard for me to think that he would do such a thing..."

The two scholars hadn't slept all night, but they couldn't sleep at this time, leaning on the couch, each of them had something on their minds.

Half a day later, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Standing up to look, I saw that it was Shi Zhang, with a man standing behind him.

This man's eyes were small and his mouth was big, and there was a faint expression on his expression... an expression of arrogance that regarded others as fools.

"My respect, this is..."

"Wang Hao and Wang Muqiao of Yidu, I want Zijing to help me with something."

Wang Luo took a few steps forward and said with a smile, "That's right, Zijing will go with brother."

"Okay." Yan Fu didn't resist, stood up, and walked out with Wang Xiao.

"Zijing..." Yao Sui chased after two steps, but was stopped by Shi Zhang.

He watched Yan Fu go further and further away from a distance, and deep worry suddenly surged in his heart.

……

Over there, Yan Fu left the Jinglue Mansion, turned his head to look, and saw rows of soldiers in armor holding swords, looking terrifying.

"Can Zijing know how to ride a horse?" Wang Xiao asked with a smile.

"meeting."

"please."

The two got on their horses and walked all the way to the south gate of Kaifeng City.

Passing by Chongyang Temple, Yan Fu looked at the ruins and rubble, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

"You have been with Li Xia before." Wang Xiao suddenly asked, "What kind of person is he?"

Yan Fu thought for a while, and replied: "That person... is not simple."

"It's the same as not saying it." Wang Xiao asked again: "Do you know where we are going?"

"Zhuxian Town?"

"Yes."

Yan Fu asked this question, but when he got the answer, he was stunned for a while, and said, "Has Li Xia escaped from Kaifeng?"

Wang Xiao grinned, laughed, and said, "It's possible."

"No... didn't you catch it?"

"Zhang Wulang can't even catch him, how can I catch him? Damn, I've only taken over half a day and I'm going crazy."

Wang Hao cursed softly, then raised his head, and said proudly: "I am a swan, not a cat or a dog. I will never tire myself out to catch mice."

Yan Fu: "..."

"It's okay to tell you." Wang Luo said: "We seized a man named Han Chengjuan, the governor of the Jinglue Mansion, interrogated him, and he confessed that he gave his brother Han Chengxu a temporary residence in a separate courtyard."

"Then...you haven't caught it yet?"

"No, we searched the other courtyard. People have already fled, but we found a head."

"Head."

"Lei Sanxi's head." Wang Luo said, "a centurion died last night, and the letter was taken away, but early this morning, a group of soldiers were ordered by Lei Sanxi to leave the city, saying they would rush back to Bozhou. Damn it, because Zhang Wulang suddenly fell into a coma and didn't tell me about it, so I didn't have time to arrange it."

"Li Xia has escaped?"

Wang Luo said: "Now there is only one clue left."

Yan Fu said: "Me?"

"Yes."

Yan Fu said: "So that brother Mu Qiao knows, I was just defrauding Li Xia at that time."

Wang Luo smiled and said, "I heard that your name is 'Fu', and you are restored to the Central Plains?"

Yan Fudao: "My grandfather tabooed 'Yan'. He was a minister of the Jin Dynasty. He died in the king's affairs. The Wanyan family gave my father the taboo 'Zhong'. I was born after the death of the Jin Dynasty. I was born as a Mongolian. My name is 'Fu' , is the 'recovery' of 'rejuvenating the family business', and my father hopes that I can become an official again."

When he said this, he sneered, and said: "Zhao Song has been in ruins for 130 years. How can it be possible to restore the Central Plains? How can I vote for Song?"

"Hahaha, I know, I know... Zhao Gou can't recover once, and it has been 130 years now, but no northerner with a brain will vote for Song Dynasty." Wang Hao laughed.

He laughed for a long time, then calmed down and said: "If Zijing can really trick Li Xia into joining you and catch him, I will recommend you to be an official, how about it?"

"Brother Xie Muqiao."

A group of people left Kaifeng, rode their horses and galloped, and arrived outside Zhuxian Town in the evening.

Wang Luo set up an ambush and asked Yan Fu to ride his horse to lure Li Xia...

It was a small forest outside Zhuxian Town.

Yan Fu waited alone in the woods, thinking about what Li Xia said.

"If you really want to return to the Song Dynasty, come to Zhuxian Town to meet me. If I don't come, you can find a way to escape and go to the Song Dynasty. Go to Luzhou to find a ruler named Lu Fengtai. After I go back, I will replace you Let's perform together..."

Yan Fu did not tell others about this sentence.

He also knew that the first half of Li Xia's sentence was a lie, and it was impossible for him to come to Zhuxian Town.

Looking back at this time, Wang Luo's men and horses were far away.

As long as the horse gallops, maybe it can really escape.

Yan Fu pinched the horse's belly and rode forward.

"The loyalty of the people who survived the world, weeping blood and being threatened by pollution, tied arrows and shot my poems, and went to Wuling Xia."

This poem by Lu You echoed in my mind again.

These years, being a Han Chinese, being inferior to Mongols and inferior to Huihui people, that kind of humiliation welled up in his heart, Yan Fu's heart gradually became hot, he raised his horsewhip and waved it heavily...

The horseshoe galloped to the south, seeing the "Zhuxian Town" in the distance, suddenly a few thoughts came to Yan Fu's mind.

So what if the journey to the south of the Yangtze River is full of difficulties and dangers?How can the Song Dynasty, which has been mourned for 130 years, return to the Central Plains?

Li Xia is both civil and military, so what if he is a hero?At most, at most can become another Yue Fei?
Yue Fei can also compose lyrics, but there are only eight words left in the song "Manjianghong"...

"The sky is shining, the sky is shining!"

Thinking of Yue Fei's horrific characters before his tragic death, Yan Fu suddenly got excited and reined in his horse.

"Shut up!"

Relatives and friends are all in the north, and in the future, the Mongolian iron hooves will break through the city of Lin'an, so that they will be accused of being "traitors" because of themselves, and they will be slaves and handmaids for the rest of their lives, and suffer all the humiliation?

Countless thoughts turned in his mind, thinking of relatives and friends in the clan being driven like cattle and sheep, being abused wantonly... Yan Fu suddenly burst into tears.

"Mr. Fang Weng, I can't be a Wuling Xia... I can't be a Wuling Xia! This Wuling Xia can't be done with a heart..."

~~
It was night, Wang Luo looked at Yan Fu with red and swollen eyes, and sighed.

"Li Xia didn't come?"

"He didn't come." Yan Fu said, "But I found the mark he left in the forest, and he has already left."

Wang Luo murmured, "It looks like he ran away?"

"Yes."

"Then this matter should be over."

Yan Fu was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head again, and suddenly found six corpses lying on the ground, both men, women and children.

"Brother Muqiao, this is?"

"Come on, I'll show you." Wang Xiao pointed at them one by one, and said with a smile, "Gao Changshou, Han Chengxu, Liu Jinsuo..."

Yan Fu had already understood, and murmured: "But... but there is one less..."

Wang Luo patted him on the shoulder, leaned into his ear, and asked softly, "Right? You also heard about Zhishiyuan, right?"

"I……"

Yan Fu was startled, turned around and wanted to run away.

"puff!"

A sharp knife had plunged into his heart.

There was another "poof", and Yan Fu fell to the ground.

"Ha, Yan Fu, over and over again." Wang Xiao sneered, and ordered, "Destroy his face, and hand over his body to Quanzhen Sect Wang Zhijin."

"know."

Wang Luo said again: "As for Yan Fu, he has absconded."

"Don't worry, a little scholar, who do you have to explain to?"

Wang Luo smiled and said, "I told Zhang Wulang that I would definitely kill Li Xia. Look, I did it. After the matter is over, everything will be calm."
