The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 954 940 Three: Iron Bull Visits Relatives ([-])
That Sun Tiansheng clasped his fist at Duan Wuji.

"Prince Duan, your kung fu is really good! I, Sun Tiansheng, thought I was invincible!

However, compared with you, I really have no chance of winning these two times!

It seems that I have to correct my bad habit in the future. Before, I only knew myself, but I didn’t know anyone!

Prince Duan, I really learned a lesson today, boy. "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"I said, Sun Tiansheng, your two moves are really not easy! It's really you who can fight with me for a hundred rounds without losing!"

While talking, the two walked towards the high platform where Li Shimin was sitting.

Duan Wuji bowed his hand towards the emperor.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of the martial arts of the man I'm looking for?

This has been a battle with me for more than 100 rounds without winning or losing.

It can be seen that this person's martial arts is extremely high! "

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"I said brother, I am very satisfied with the person you found.

How did you find such a person? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "I found the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, and as soon as I heard that it was someone who stole things from the palace, I paid attention to it.

Think about it, Your Majesty, your palace is heavily guarded, and the city is high and the pond is deep. Can ordinary people enter the palace?
The person who can successfully enter the palace must be the powerful generation!

Talking to him today, it really is such a thing.

It would be a pity if such a talent really loses his head. "

Li Shimin listened and nodded.

"Well, brother, what you said is not true at all.

If such a person serves in our army, he is definitely a brave general!

It's a pity that there are no more battles to fight now. In my opinion, it's just right for him to go west with the holy monk.

After he comes back, I'm trying to find a way to arrange a suitable position for him.

This person is already counted as one, come down and find me three more people!
Fight for someone who can fight like him, then the holy monk will be much safer and more at ease. "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"My brothers and I will leave Beijing tomorrow morning. Let's search as much as possible to see if we can find a more suitable candidate?"

Li Shimin said to Sun Tiansheng: "I said Sun Tiansheng, why don't you go to the prison that day.

After I go back in a while, I will take you to Guanglu Temple to find the holy monk!

From now on, you will be his entourage, and you must establish a good relationship with him.The relationship between you is a master-servant relationship, and a master-student relationship!

I said Sun Tiansheng, did you hear me clearly? "

Sun Tiansheng was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I understand the criminals clearly. I will report to you right now, and I will also listen to the monk's chanting, and let my soul be purified!"

Li Shimin laughed when he heard this.

"Okay, then follow me.

Let's drive to Guanglu Temple, dear friends, go to Guanglu Temple with me.

It would be good if we eat a few bowls of vegetarian food there. "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "I said, Your Majesty, we two brothers will not go, let's go home and pack our things so that we can go on the road tomorrow."

Li Shimin laughed when he heard this.

"Since you two have something to do, then you two don't go, you go home and pack your bags quickly.

Hurry up tomorrow, you two leave the capital early, go out and find someone for me!
Let me tell you that three or four days have passed in this month.

There are still more than 20 days, you two must find three more people for me. "

Duan Wuji bowed his hands up.

"Your Majesty, it is enough for the two of us to accept the order."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu separated from them, and as they rode their horses towards home, Tie Niu asked Duan Wuji, "Brother, which direction shall we go tomorrow morning?
Do you have a purpose in this matter? "

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"What's the purpose of this? We brothers are nothing more than looking for a needle in a haystack.

Each of us will bring a thousand taels of 800 taels of silver, and we will inquire about it while traveling around the mountains and rivers outside!

Not to mention finding a few people, I think it is very difficult to find just one person.

I said Brother Tieniu, do you have any ideas? "

Tie Niu grinned and said, "Brother, you also know that last year we left some Cordyceps.

I gave five catties to Bai Huiying's father, and another ten catties of cordyceps are still in my house.

I plan to give ten catties of caterpillar fungus to Hou Yinping's parents as well, so that I can feel at ease.

If one favors the other, sooner or later the family will have problems. "

Duan Wuji laughed out loud.

"I said Brother Tieniu, so you decided to use this time to visit your relatives.

I can tell you that if you really want to go to Houjiazhuang, you have to bring some money to them. To be honest, their family lives a simple life, and they usually don't get any glory from you!

Would you improve their lives if you didn't bring them more money? "

Tie Niu listened and nodded.

"Well, that's what you said, so how much money should you bring them?

Let me go back and think about this matter carefully!

I said brother, can you follow me to a relative? "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"What's wrong with this! When you arrive at their house, you are that aunt, why don't they entertain us with delicious food and drink?"

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Their family is so poor, it's so poor that they jingle! It's just such a poor family, what are they going to entertain us two?"

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Why don't you bring more money to them, if you bring less money, I'm afraid you really won't be able to spend it."

Tie Niu smiled wryly after hearing this.

"With such poor relatives, what can anyone do?

Help them if you can! "

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the two brothers broke up.

When Duan Wuji returned home, his servants took his horse away.

Duan Wuji hummed a little tune and walked straight to the study.

During lunch, Duan Wuji said to Princess Mingzhu: "Mingzhu! I have to go out tomorrow.

Give me 600 taels of silver! "

"The head of the house, how did you get so much money when you went out?"

Duan Wuji shook his head helplessly.

"We have followed the emperor's order to go out to find someone.

This trip lasted for ten days and twenty days, and people were fed by horses every day, so it didn't cost money.

Fortunately, I still have 400 taels of silver on me, otherwise, I would have asked you to ask for 1000 taels of silver.

As the saying goes, poor families get rich, otherwise, we might be trapped outside!

My little baby, you should also know that I don't spend much money, and I can get it back if I can't spend it all.

Do not think of me as a servant of the house, and send me as a beggar.

If that's the case, I'd rather run away from home than stay here. "

Princess Pearl smiled sweetly.

"I said the head of the family, I just asked casually, and there was no other meaning.

Why are you so angry?

Can I get it for you in a while? "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"I'm angry with you? I'm not angry with you.

I was teasing you just now, you are my little baby, how could I be angry with you? "

"Husband, your mouth is so sweet! Although I know that what you said is not true, I am still willing to listen to it.

Husband, just wait, I'll get you the money.

My imperial brother is also true, you go out to find someone, but you want our family to spend money. "

Princess Mingzhu went out muttering, and brought a silver bag in a short time.

Duan Wuji wrapped the 600 taels of silver with his own 400 taels of silver, and put the silver bag in the cabinet.

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "There's nothing else to do now, I should go out tomorrow morning."

Duan Wuji suddenly turned around, and picked up Princess Pearl.

"My little baby, let's go back to the house and make out!"

"Hey! I said the head of the house, it's broad daylight, you want to do that.

Are you not afraid of being laughed at by others? "

Duan Wuji walked towards the bedroom with Princess Pearl in his arms, and said with a smile: "What's so funny about this, isn't it just to make out together?
We are a legal couple, and no one can control this matter. "

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji got up early. Duan Wuji ate two bites in a hurry, and asked the servants to lead his horse out. Duan Wuji put the silver bag on his back, and led the horse straight out up.

As soon as he reached the gate of Tie Niu's house, Tie Niu led his horse and drove out from inside.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother Tieniu, why do you carry such a big burden when you go out?"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "What do you think I can do? Besides bringing some Chinese caterpillar fungus to my father-in-law and the old couple, I also brought them dozens of bolts of good cloth, so that they can make some Beautiful clothes!

My two sister-in-laws are also from that village, so we should have some of them!

I said brother, let's go quickly.

It must take more than two days to rush from our place to their place! "

The two left the mansion gate and ran straight for the east gate. After leaving the city, the two accelerated their progress, and the two horses galloped into the air.

Along the way, the two were hungry for food and drink, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and two days later, the two arrived at Houjiazhuang.

The two brothers jumped off the horse, led the horse and rushed in directly.

After entering the yard, the two tied the horse to a small tree, and Tie Niu shouted loudly into the house: "Is there anyone at home? Mother! I see you are here."

As soon as Tie Niu finished speaking, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old daughter-in-law came out of the room. The young daughter-in-law looked at Tie Niu and Duan Wuji and asked, "You two distinguished guests, who are you looking for?"

Tieniu rolled his eyelids.

"Why are you looking for someone and not someone else? Anyway, I'm not looking for you.

Oh, I said who are you? "

The little daughter-in-law looked at Tieniu and asked, "Could it be that you are the third brother-in-law? My surname is Liu, and my name is Liu Sanjie. I am Hongsheng's daughter-in-law."

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Who is at home in your family?"

"Who is Jing at home? There is no one else at home, just me and my mother at home.

Hongsheng and his son went to the field, and they haven't come back yet! "

As soon as Tieniu heard that she was Hou Hongsheng's daughter-in-law, this handsome little daughter-in-law became his little concubine.

Tieniu smiled and said: "That's right, I am that Duan Tieniu, this is my brother, his name is Duan Wuji.

how!Have you heard of me too? "

After hearing this, Third Sister Liu immediately ran into the house. After a short time, Hou Hongsheng's mother came out of the house.

"Oh! Isn't this Niu'er? How did you come here today?"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "I'm not busy now, I came here specially to see you, old man.

Mother, is your body strong? "

"Well, it's alright!"

Hou Hongsheng's mother pointed with her finger.

"This is Hongsheng's daughter-in-law, who has been married for three months.

I said third sister!This is your third brother-in-law, you should also get to know her well.

He is a relative in our family!Over the years, people have helped our family many times. Without their help, our family would not be able to live so well. "

Third Sister Liu came over and hurriedly saluted Tieniu.

"Third brother-in-law, how are my third sisters doing?"

Tie Niu turned to the side and quickly returned the gift.

"They're doing okay, don't worry about it."

Hou Hongsheng's mother hurriedly said to her daughter-in-law: "I said third sister! You should also go to the field quickly and call Hongsheng and your father-in-law back!
Our family has distinguished guests, let them go home to accompany the guests!
Tell them both that your third brother-in-law is here. "

Third Sister Liu promised you, then turned and ran out of the yard.

Hou Hongsheng's mother hurriedly said to Tieniu and Duan Wuji: "Go and rest in the house, Hongsheng and his father will be back in a while."

As soon as the two of them entered the house, Hou Hongsheng's mother went to boil water for them, and the old lady brought black dates and walnuts for them.

Tieniu said with a smile: "Mother! Don't be so busy, just take a rest for a while!
Our two brothers came here, but found so many jobs for you, how embarrassing it is! "

"Hey! What's so embarrassing? You can't come to our house once or twice a year.

You guys are here, if I ignore you again, I won’t be able to explain it! "

Not too long, Liu Sanjie led Hou Hongsheng and his father and son hurried in.

When Tieniu saw his father-in-law came back, he quickly stood up to say hello.

When Hou Guantang saw his third son-in-law approaching, he was so happy from the bottom of his heart!

The old man also knows that his third son-in-law is a rich man, and every time he comes, he will bring him a lot of good things.

Hou Hongsheng's old mother shouted to Hou Hongsheng: "Hong go away! Call your two older sisters here, since we are distinguished guests.

Let's prepare dinner for others quickly!

It's not easy for a big family to get together. Your third brother-in-law is here.

Let's have a good reunion as a family! "

Hou Hongsheng agreed and ran out. It wasn't too long before Hou Hongsheng's two older sisters led a bunch of children over.
