Monument Yangmen

Chapter 621 Hitting Grass Valley?
Yang House.

Huo Hongye, the boat man, and the boat lady entered the main hall led by Peng Pai.

Yang Qi and his wife were already waiting in the hall.

After Huo Hongye entered the main hall, he subconsciously looked at Yang Qi.

Yang Qi seemed to feel his gaze, and also looked at him.

"Humph!"

Yang Qi snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction. Huo Hongye was taken aback, and bowed his head guiltily.

"This subordinate has seen the young master and the madam."

Yang Qi and Cao Lin glanced at Huo Hongye, but ignored him.

Huo Hongye looked a little embarrassed.

Yang Qi's name is like a boatman's, not mentioning Yang Qi's deeds in the Northwest, just mentioning Yang Qi's status in Bianjing, which is not something that a commoner like a boatman can afford.

The boatman took a careful look at Yang Qi, and bowed to salute, "The little old man and the little girl have met Huhou and Madam."

Facing behind the boatman, Yang Qi obviously had a smile on his face, "Don't be too polite, old man."

"Yo~"

Cao Lin screamed, got up and moved to the boat lady, "Raise your head, let me have a look."

The boat lady has never seen any big shots since she was a child.

I haven't seen any big scenes.

So after entering Yang's mansion, he seemed very restrained, kept his head down, and kept silent.

Even if the gift was given just now, the boatman dragged him to give the gift.

Hearing Cao Lin's words, she was a little panicked, but she still raised her head slowly.

Cao Lin glanced at the boat lady's cheek, and nodded with a smile, "It's really pretty, no wonder I'm fascinated by the powerful general under the command of Mr. Lang..."

After saying this, he glanced at Huo Hongye with a half-smile.

Huo Hongye seemed even more guilty, wishing he could turn into an ostrich and bury his head in the soil.

Cao Lin took the boat lady's hand, and in the boat lady's bewildered affection, she said softly, "Sister, don't be afraid. When you arrive at Yang's mansion, it's like you're at home. What they talk about at the man's house, our daughter's house I can’t get in the conversation. Why don’t you follow my sister to the back hall.”

The boat lady didn't know how to respond, she subconsciously looked at the boatman.

The boatman nodded with a complicated expression.

The boat lady was led out of the main hall by Cao Lin's hand.

As soon as Cao Lin took the boat lady away, the smile on Yang Qi's face disappeared.

"Oh!"

Yang Qi was full of anger, and he slapped the table and stood up.

"Pfft!"

Huo Hongye was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground.

The boatman's heart was beating wildly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The boatman clearly knew that Yang Qi's anger was not aimed at him, but facing Yang Qi's proud majesty behind him, he didn't feel a trace of fear in his heart.

Yang Qi glanced at the boatman, his eyes fell on Huo Hongye, and said with a sneer, "Huo, tell me, what is Article [-] of the Scarecrow Military Law?"

Huo Hongye said in a trembling voice: "The raper and plunderer will be killed without mercy..."

"You still know?"

Yang Qi sarcastically said, "Then tell me, why did you commit the crime knowingly?"

"Subordinate...Subordinate..." Huo Hongye stammered, hesitated for a while, then said in a deep voice, "This subordinate has really taken a fancy to her and wants to marry her!"

"Wife or concubine?"

"wife!"

"So, you snatched them over?"

"Subordinate...Subordinate, I can't help myself..."

"Can't help it?"

Yang Qi moved in front of Huo Hongye, staring at him blankly, "You can't help it is the reason why you rob the women?"

Yang Qi pointed at the boatman and roared loudly, "Have you ever asked the parents if they would like it? Have you ever asked the girl if they would like it? Have you ever thought about how the father and daughter will live after they leave their hometown? Have you ever thought about robbing the family?" After the father and daughter, how will the old mother, wife and children in the family live?"

Yang Qi was furious, "It's over if you can't help it? It's simply unreasonable."

Yang Qi stood up, spread his hands, and roared angrily: "Peng Pai, take my knife, I'm going to chop this bastard who robbed the women of the people."

Without further ado, Peng Pai handed a horizontal knife to Yang Qi.

Yang Qi didn't blink his eyes, he raised the horizontal knife and slashed.

Huo Hongye was a little silly!
The boatman is also a little silly!
With a swipe of the horizontal knife gleaming with cold light, Huo Hongye's head was about to fall to the ground in the blink of an eye.

"willing!"

With an exclamation, the knife in Yang Qi's hand abruptly hung in front of Huo Hongye's neck.

Yang Qi held the knife, frowned, and looked at the exclaimed boatman.

"Old man, what does this mean?"

The boatman had a mournful face, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He clearly knew that Yang Qi was acting, but he had no choice but to say these two words under Yang Qi's persecution.

If Yang Qi really beheaded Huo Hongye today, the father and daughter would not be able to think about it.

Yang Qi's words seemed to be questioning Huo Hongye, but they were actually meant for him.

Killing Huo Hongye with a knife was also to force him to express his opinion.

The boatman finally understood that Huo Hongye is a young master, he must recognize it, and he must recognize it if he does not.

"The little old man thinks it's good for my daughter to marry this military master..."

Yang Qi put away the knife, and asked the boatman suspiciously, "Old man, are you really willing to marry your daughter to this guy?"

The boatman nodded helplessly.

"But this guy robbed your father and daughter and cut off your livelihood, don't you hold grudges against him?"

"The little old man still has some skills, so he can make a living there."

"But he snatched your father and daughter from the city of Bianjing. Don't you worry if your family members have no news of your father and daughter?"

"In the little old man's house, there are only the little old man and the little girl left..."

"This……"

Yang Qi asked with a troubled expression: "Old man, he obviously robbed your father and daughter, but you are still willing to marry your daughter to him. What do you like about him?"

Yang Qi looked at Huo Hongye, who was stunned and unable to utter a word, and said with disgust: "Why can't I find any good points in him to be likable?"

The little old man didn't find it either...

The boatman glanced helplessly at Huo Hongye, held back for a long time, and then uttered a word.

"He... can eat... is strong... can support a family..."

uh~
Is this a reason?
Yang Qi had to admire the powerful reason that the boatman found out.

"Cough cough..."

Yang Qi coughed dryly, tried not to laugh out loud, put away the knife, looked at Huo Hongye with a straight face.

"Huo Hongye!"

"I'm... my subordinates are here!"

Huo Hongye was pulled back from the trance by Yang Qi's shout, quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly spoke up.

"Since the old man is willing to betroth his daughter to you, then you are not considered a robbery. However, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living penalty cannot be escaped."

Yang Qi pondered for a while, and said: "I will punish you with a staff of thirty, to see the effect."

Huo Hongye quickly kowtowed and said, "Thank you young master for not killing me."

Yang Qi snorted and said: "He has a big girl with yellow flowers, you snatched her, and her reputation is not good. Since the old man promised to betroth his daughter to you, then you should choose an auspicious day and get married as soon as possible.

After marriage, you will be responsible for the livelihood of your husband, father and daughter.If you let me know that you have neglected your father and daughter, be careful of your dog head. "

Huo Hongye was stunned for a moment, overjoyed, "This subordinate will follow the young master's instructions."

"Shameful thing." Yang Qi cursed, and ordered Peng Pai: "Drag me out and beat me hard."

Peng Pai took the order and dragged Huo Hongye outside.

Yang Qi asked the boatman to sit down, and said with emotion: "Old man... how could you fall in love with such a..."

Stupid!

Yang Qi didn't say these two words.

The corner of the boatman's mouth twitched, with the urge to scold his mother.

It's not because of you.

But he said with a smile on his mouth: "It's better to be simple, honest, my daughter won't suffer if she follows him."

outside the hall.

Peng Pai asked someone to bring over a torture bench, and Huo Hongye lay on it.

Huo Hongye was not at all panicked and nervous before being beaten. Instead, he said to Peng Pai with a look of surprise: "Boss Peng, come here a few more times, let me see if I'm dreaming."

Peng Pai gave Huo Hongye a contemptuous look, "You'll have to be pissed off! If the young master and his wife hadn't come forward, do you think that boatman would be able to marry his daughter to you?"

"Master and madam?"

Huo Hongye was puzzled.

Peng Pai rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "You think the young master can kill you for such a trivial matter?"

Huo Hongye's eyeballs rolled around, and he said pleasantly: "A bitter trick?"

"It's good to know...don't forget the young master's kindness to you, and do a good job for the young master in the future!"

Huo Hongye nodded solemnly, "Young Master's great kindness to me, Huo Hongye, I, Huo Hongye, will never forget."

"Snapped!"

"Ouch~"

Peng Pai hit Huo Hongye with a stick, and Huo Hongye grinned in pain.

He glared at Peng Pai, and growled, "Didn't you mean a trick?"

The old god Peng Pai said: "I just see that you are unhappy... Besides, when our Scarecrow was tortured, when did we make a fake..."

"You are jealous!"

"Snapped!"

"Ouch! You are Chi Guoguo's jealousy, you old bachelor!"

"Crack! Crack!"

"..."

Huo Hongye hugged the beauty back, and even taunted Peng Pai out loud.

How could Peng Pai not be angry.

Thirty boards down, Huo Hongye's butt has blossomed.

After the execution was over, Peng Pai entered the main hall with Huo Hongye, who was clutching his buttocks.

In the main hall, Yang Qi was chatting with the boatman, and it could be seen that the two of them had a good chat, with smiles on their faces.

Cao Lin and the boat lady also returned to the main hall.

Cao Lin had obviously chatted with the boat lady, because the boat lady looked at Huo Hongye with shyness.

Yang Qi looked at Huo Hongye, who was covering his butt and baring his teeth, and said angrily, "Come and call someone!"

Huo Hongye was stunned for a moment, then ran to the boatman in surprise, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and saluted.

"My son-in-law pays his respects to his father-in-law."

The boatman looked at the big fat pig who was about to give his own Chinese cabbage, and heaved a long sigh.

"Good boy, get up."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Seeing this scene, Yang Qi and Cao Lin smiled knowingly.

Huo Hongye's matter was resolved satisfactorily, and a happy marriage was formed again, which is indeed a festive event.

……

The world is full of states, some are happy and some are worried.

It is also the case that the women who were robbed by the Liao people will not end up as happy as the boat lady.

Just when the Yang family was helping Huo Hongye to make arrangements for her marriage.

An unexpected person entered the city of Datong.

Handed a greeting card to Yang Qi.

Yang House.

study.

Holding the greeting card in his hand, Yang Qi asked Peng Pai with a strange expression, "Li Zifeng, the guard of Yanmen Gate?"

"What did he come to see me for?"

Peng Pai bowed and said, "I heard it has something to do with the Liao people going south."

Yang Qi frowned, "The people of Liao have gone south. Has there been any military report from the Fuxing Pass in Fuxing Mansion and the place next to Yunnei Prefecture in Dongcheng Mansion?"

Peng Pai shook his head.

Yang Qi pondered: "That is to say, the Liao people went south and invaded the Song Dynasty?"

Peng Pai hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It should be so."

Yang Qi ordered: "Go and bring Li Zifeng in, and I'll find out the purpose of his trip."

Peng Pai cupped his hands and left the study.

After a while, Peng Pai took Li Zifeng into Yang Qi's study.

After a long time no see, Li Zifeng has matured a lot, he has lost the sloppy look before, he has become clean, and his short beard has been neatly trimmed by him.

It can be seen that someone should take care of him.

When old friends meet, there is no tearful scene.

Instead, it was a little embarrassing.

Yang Qi stared at Li Zifeng without speaking.

Li Zifeng was the only one who spoke first, "Li Zifeng, a humble worker, has met Huhou."

"Li Zifeng, how long has it been since we saw each other?"

Yang Qi folded his hands in front of his chest, and asked with a sigh.

Li Zifeng was stunned, and said bluntly, "It's been almost two years."

Yang Qi nodded, and asked with a smile: "I haven't seen you for two years, but married a wife?"

Li Zifeng asked in astonishment: "How did Huhou know?"

Yang Qi glanced at his clothes, but did not answer.

Li Zifeng looked at himself and immediately understood.

Yang Qi said with emotion: "You and I are also brothers who have stirred up a spoon in the pot. Why didn't you notify me when you got married. Do you think that my Yang Yansi family is poor and can't afford the gift money?"

Li Zifeng hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "I don't dare. When I got married, Huhou was fighting fiercely with the Liao people in Fuxing Pass. Naturally, I can't disturb the Huhou battle because of these trivial matters."

In fact, Li Zifeng was not telling the truth.

Yanmen Pass is only one step away from Datong Mansion, even if Yang Qi is fighting fiercely, as a courtesy, Li Zifeng should send an invitation to this former colleague.

The reason why he didn't send it was because he was stopped by his wife who fell from the sky.

Li Zifeng doted on his wife very much, so he didn't ask why.

"Forget that you have passed the test, let's talk about it. What is the purpose of visiting me today?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zifeng bowed and said, "Please Huhou for help."

"Oh?"

Yang Qi looked at Li Zifeng unexpectedly, "Please help me? What do you want me to do for you..."

After a pause, Yang Qi asked with a smile that was not a smile: "Crack the soil and seal the border?"

Li Zifeng was so frightened that his knees almost went limp, and Yang Qi's words were too scary.

Li Zifeng couldn't bear to open his mouth to incite people to crack the soil and seal the border.

He suppressed his fear, and solemnly said: "In the past month, the Liao people frequently broke through the border defenses of our Great Song Dynasty, entered and left our territory of the Great Song Dynasty, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of crimes.

Yanmen Pass is facing the southeast line, the defense is weak, and the Liao people have repeatedly found intrusions.

At present, hundreds of villages have been attacked by the Liao people.

I'm overwhelmed, so I'm here to ask Huhou for help. "

"The Liao people invaded the south?"

Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, pretending not to know, and said in surprise: "According to the habits of the Liao people, they should start hunting grass valleys in autumn and end in winter.

Liao people seldom come out to hunt grass valleys in winter. Why are they so abnormal this year? "
