Fenghou

Chapter 99 The Night Visit
Wan Yan Huo Nu's eighth arrow failed, and she came to Wan Yan Chang's side very dejectedly, "I'm humble and incompetent, I've discredited Marshal Du!"

Wan Yanchang patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry! He can't win with this arrow."

Wan Yan Huo Nu was taken aback, wondering what the coach meant by this?
He hesitated for a while and said: "Marshal Du, it doesn't matter if you lose here, the humble will win back on the battlefield, but making small moves will make the Han people laugh."

Wan Yanchang smiled triumphantly, "We Jurchens don't know how to do small tricks. If it's their Han people fighting among themselves, then it has nothing to do with us."

When it was Chen Qing's turn to play, he took a deep look at the incense sticks in the distance, and nodded to Liu Qiong. Liu Qiong stepped forward and covered his eyes with a black cloth.

Chen Qing stood in front of the line with his Dingyuan bow in his hand, without moving.

There was a complete silence all around, and everyone around held their breath, watching Chen Qing nervously.

Just a dozen steps behind Chen Qing, Wang Bo held a cup of tea in his hand and stared at Chen Qing's hand without blinking. The tea was already cold, but he had no intention of drinking it at all. At the critical moment, let the teacup fall to the ground.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed and appeared in front of him. Before he could react, the teacup in his hand was taken away.

Wang Bo was caught off guard, and when he saw that the person in front of him was Hu Yantong, he suddenly flew into a rage, and shouted sharply: "What do you want to do?"

He made a loud voice, and immediately attracted the attention of the people around him. Hu Yantong wished to kill this bastard with one knife. He knocked Wang Bo to the ground with one punch, and covered Wang Bo's mouth hard to prevent him from shouting. , Wang Bo struggled desperately.

At this time, seven or eight businessmen rushed up and held Wang Bo firmly. Wang Bo yelled, but he couldn't make a sound.

However, Chen Qing's heart was calm and calm, he slowly drew out an arrow, stretched the bow and put it on the arrow, drew the bow perfectly, shot out, the arrow was like lightning, and the sharp tip of the arrow flew in the air like lightning, and arrived at Xiangtouhuo. In an instant, the incense head was shot away.
Wanyan Huonu closed her eyes in pain, and the moment Chen Qing shot an arrow, he knew he had lost.

There were thunderous cheers from all around, hundreds of guests hugged each other excitedly, jumping and jumping, Hu Yantong also let go of Wang Bo, Wang Bo lay on the ground, his heart was bleeding with hatred, it was a failure!

"What a Huyantong, let's see how I deal with you in the future!"

Wan Yanchang's face was very ugly, but in a blink of an eye he smiled falsely again, "General Chen, this friendly arrow competition is good, which means that the relationship between our Jin and Song Dynasties will have a good start."

Chen Qing smiled faintly, "Thanks to Supervisor Wanyan for making me a windfall."

Wan Yanchang took a deep look at Chen Qing and waved his hand, "Let's go!"

He turned around and left with more than a dozen golden soldiers, Wang Bo hesitated, and quickly followed.

Walking out of Fengle Building, Wan Yanchang looked at the sky with his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "House, do you want Chen Qing's head?"

Wanyan Huonu understood what the marshal meant, and hurriedly bowed and said, "The humble official is more willing to take his life on the battlefield."

Wan Yanchang shook his head, "This is the meaning of the wolf lord, it's not up to you and me to decide."

He turned back to Wang Bo and said, "Please make arrangements with your uncle, I want to see him tonight."

Yesterday's birthday banquet really made Lu Yihao a little tired. Today happened to be a day off, so he had a good rest at home.

At night, Lu Yihao was sitting in the study and reading a book. At this time, a maid reported at the door, "Master, a young guest called Chen Qing came outside, and he asked to see the master on urgent matters!"

"Chen Qing?"

It really surprised Lu Yihao that Chen Qing came to visit him so late.

He pondered for a moment and said: "Let him wait for a while, I'll go right away."

After a pause, he said again: "Let the eldest son accompany you too!"

The eldest son, Lu Jin, is the eldest son of Lu Yihao. He is currently serving as the governor of Xinzhou. He rushed back to Lin'an because of his father's [-]th birthday.

Lu Yihao changed his clothes before walking towards the living room in a calm manner.

Walking up the steps, he saw Lu Jinzheng, the eldest son in the living room, talking with Chen Qing. Lu Yihao laughed and said, "I kept General Chen waiting for a long time!"

Chen Qing and Lu Jin stood up quickly, Chen Qing said apologetically, "I came here without invitation, it's really urgent, I disturbed my husband's rest!"

"It's okay to be in a hurry!"

When Lu Yihao turned his head, he found a bronze Buddha on the table. Looking carefully, his face changed drastically, "Is this the golden pharmacist Buddha of Emperor Shenzong?"

Lu Yihao's mother believed in Buddhism, and he had seen this Buddha several times and was deeply impressed.

Chen Qing nodded, "That's right, it is the Golden Buddha enshrined by Emperor Shenzong."

"But. It should fall into the hands of the Jinren. Where did you get it from?"

"This Buddha was indeed obtained by the Jinren. To be precise, it fell into the hands of Wan Yanchang. Today I was lucky enough to win it back from Wan Yanchang."

Chen Qing then told Lu Yihao in detail what happened in Fengle Building tonight.

Lu Yihao was so excited that he was fidgeting, he stood up and went to the golden Buddha to take a closer look, and sighed for a long time: "I didn't expect this Buddha to come back again, thanks to General Chen's courage and strategy! I don't know how you plan to deal with it?"

He looked at Chen Qing expectantly.

Chen Qing said lightly: "I sent it to Lu Xianggong's mansion, so I didn't intend to take it, let it return to its original owner!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Lu Yihao said three words 'good' repeatedly, "It's rare that General Chen is so loyal and patriotic to the emperor. I will definitely report to the emperor, and beg the emperor to reward you well, so that you will not suffer losses in vain."

Chen Qing knew very well that tonight's game would definitely reach the emperor's ears, and he could not own this Golden Buddha. Instead of making the emperor dissatisfied with him, he might as well be a favor and return it to the palace.

Chen Qing sat down and asked again: "What is Wan Yanchang doing in Laian?"

"They came here mainly for two reasons. One is that they want to cease fighting in the Jianghuai area. I guess they want to concentrate their forces to attack Sichuan and Shaanxi. Both the officials and I are aware of this. The second thing has something to do with you."

"It has something to do with me?"

Chen Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be because of Wanyan Loushi?"

Lu Yihao nodded, "The chief of the Kingdom of Jin wanted to welcome Wanyan Loushi's head back, so Wanyanchang came here this time and specially brought back the two princesses from the official family."

Zhao Gou had five daughters in total, all of whom were taken away to the north. The five daughters were only three or four years old, but three died of illness on the way. In the end, only four-year-old eldest daughter Zhao Foyou and second daughter Zhao Shenyou survived. There are eight years old.

"Wanyan Loushi's head is still there?"

"It's still there. It's buried in the Baihe Temple at the west foot of Phoenix Mountain. The officials are very excited and have ordered Honglu Temple to exchange it."

Chen Qing was also very happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the head of Wanyan Lou's room will still play a role in the end."

"Yes! Just based on this, the officials are very grateful to you."

Lu Yihao asked again: "Have you completed the graduation procedures for General Chen?"

"I'm going to rest today, and the Ministry of War asked me to handle it tomorrow."

"By the way, I forgot that today is morning rest."

Lu Yihao chuckled, he stroked his beard and looked at Chen Qing and asked, "How is your family doing?"

Chen Qing shook his head, "My parents died in the war."

"What about the wife and children?"

"The younger generation is not married yet."

"Twenty-four years old, haven't you considered getting married yet? Or do you already have a marriage contract?"

Chen Qing smiled wryly and shook his head, "Not at all, the humble job has not been stabilized, and I don't think about personal matters for the time being."

Lu Yihao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This old man and his granddaughter also stay in the boudoir, which suits you very well. In fact, you also saw her yesterday. If you don't dislike her, I would like to be a matchmaker for you."

Chen Qing immediately thought of the extremely gentle and majestic girl from yesterday. Later, Chen Qing also knew that she was definitely not a maid, and her clothes were wrong. She should be Lu Yihao's junior. Also a little heartbroken.

After a long while, Chen Qing said: "It's my junior's blessing to be favored by Mr. Lu. It's just that this junior will leave Lin'an in these two days. I don't know when he will come back. I'm afraid it will delay Miss Lu."

"It's okay, we can afford to wait a year or two, let's discuss this matter in the long run!"

Chen Qing got up to leave, and Lu Yihao asked his eldest son Lu Jin to send him out of the house on his behalf.

After a while, Lu Jin came back in a hurry, went to the lobby and asked, "Father wants to promise Xiu'er to him?"

Lu Yihao said indifferently: "Isn't he suitable? To be the governor of Qinzhou at such a young age, or do you want to betroth your daughter to a dude like Wang Bo?"

"That's not true, the boy also thinks he's good, but what if there is news about Mingzhong?"

Lu Xiu, the eldest granddaughter of Lu Yihao, was given to Zhang Mingzhong, Zhang Shuye's grandson, but during the Jingkang Rebellion, Zhang Shuye's family was taken captive to the north, and Zhang Shuye committed suicide on the way, and there was no news of his descendants.

Lu Yihao waved his hand, "Now Jin is strong and Song is weak. The captives don't know if they want to come back. That is delaying Xiu'er. Besides, Xiu'er has also taken a fancy to Chen Qing. Let go of the previous marriage contract. mentioned."

"Father, but this Chen Qing's attitude is not clear!"

Lu Yihao stroked his beard and smiled slyly: "Didn't you see that he has already been tempted?"
