A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 748: Encountering robbers on the waterway!

In real history, the Northern Song Dynasty did not have such an establishment as the Twelve Regiments and Battalions, but this world integrates the plot of Red Mansions, so the Forbidden Army also has these Twelve Regiments and Battalions.

They are:

The four martial camps: Fenwu Camp, Yaowu Camp, Lianwu Camp, Showing Martial Arts Camp,

Four Yongying Camps: Guoyong Camp, Guoyong Camp, Xiaoyong Camp, Guyong Camp,

The four prestige camps are: establishing prestige camp, extending prestige camp, raising prestige camp, and Zhenwei camp.

Each of these twelve regiments and camps has a population of 10,000 people. Although there is a serious problem of underpayment, there are still 6,000 to 7,000 people in each battalion.

Hua Twelve commands the Zhenwei Battalion and has heavy responsibilities. Under normal circumstances, he cannot ask for leave to leave Bianliang, Tokyo, let alone his immediate boss, Wang Ziteng, who troubles him when he has nothing to do. It is impossible to accommodate such a thing, but he has Captain Gao's endorsement is just a matter of one sentence.

Gao Qiu: Don't mention me, my heart hurts.

The situation on Lin Ruhai's side is unknown. Whether he was poisoned or not, it is definitely true that he has been a salt patrol censor for many years and has not dealt with or even had a grudge against Jiangnan salt merchants, so he went to Yangzhou this time. , Hua Twelve planned to bring Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen with him.

He was mainly afraid of encountering any situation. No matter how hard he could fight, he would not be able to fight at all, so he brought his two masters with him just in case.

According to human principles, Lin Daiyu should go to Rongguo Mansion to say goodbye to Jia Mu when she returns to Yangzhou this time. The little girl also thought so. After discussing with Hua Twelve, the latter had no objection, no matter what his impression of the people in Rongguo Mansion was. Even if it's bad, it can't change the fact that Sister Lin is the granddaughter of Jia Mu.

But of course Hua Twelve was worried that Lin Daiyu would go to Rongguo Mansion by herself. In order to fear that his sister would be bullied, before leaving Bianliang, he accompanied his sister to the gate of Rongguo Mansion for the second time.

This time, the Jia family was much more peaceful, but neither Jia She nor Jia Zheng came forward. Jia Lian accompanied Hua Twelve to drink tea in the front hall, while Lin Daiyu was invited into Rongqing Hall to talk to Jia's mother.

After the maid served the tea, the two people who had a good conversation last time were relatively speechless this time.

Hua Twelve didn't feel embarrassed. He tasted the tea from Rong Guo Mansion and felt that it was much smoother than what he got from Gao Qiu. He couldn't help but curl his lips a little, thinking that he had acted lightly. He had defrauded Rong Guo Mansion of so much money. How could he do it? No dilapidation to be seen.

Gao Qiu: I told you not to mention me anymore, but for some reason, my liver is not feeling well!

Jia Lian glanced at Hua Twelve from time to time, with a complicated expression in his eyes, and a hint of hatred. He probably knew from Wang Xifeng that it was probably Lin Chong who had defrauded their family of a lot of money.

Hua Twelve was calm when faced with this look. How could he still lose a piece of meat after just two glances? Thinking about the thirty-five thousand taels of gold, Emma smells so good!

Speaking of the entire Rongguo Jia family, Hua Twelve had the best impression of Jia Lian in front of him. Although the second son Lian did not do well, he was more humane than others.

In the original plot, Lin Ruhai was seriously ill, and it was Jia Lian who escorted Lin Daiyu home to visit her father. They traveled thousands of miles back and forth safely, without any scandal.

His father, Jia She, took a fancy to Shi Duozi's ancient fan and sent Jia Lian to buy it forcibly. However, the man didn't want it, so Jia Lian had no choice but to give up without forcing it.

Returning to Jia Yucun, he found an excuse to put Shi Duzi in jail and took the fan to give to Jia She.

For this reason, Jia She beat Jia Lian violently, thinking that he was not good at what he did. However, after being beaten, Jia Lian said: "It's not like there is anything I can do if I bankrupt someone for something like this!" It can be seen from this that he has not lost his conscience.

There is also the son of Wang Xifeng's companion, Lai Wang, who usually drinks and gambles, but falls in love with Mrs. Wang's girl Caixia, but Caixia wants to marry Jia Huan. In order to let his son succeed, the man who came to the Wang family came forward to ask Wang Xifeng to tell the truth. guest.

Lin Zhixiao privately advised Jia Lian. After telling Wang's son's shortcomings, Jia Lian immediately advised Wang Xifeng not to meddle in other people's affairs. This shows that his kindness still exists, unlike Wang Xifeng who just wanted to make a small profit for Rongguo Mansion. Kill people.

As for Jia Lian being lustful and greedy for money?

Haha, is this considered a shortcoming? Which man is not like this!

Especially in feudal society, there are many men who have not only three wives and four concubines, but also dozens or even dozens of houses with concubines. How many people does Jia Lian have in his house?

Compared with other dandy children, Hua Twelve felt that Jia Lian was much more pleasing to his eyes.

Of course, this good impression is just that. If Jia Lian doesn't provoke him, Hua Twelve will not do anything to him. The two of them will naturally get along well. If the other party is as ignorant as his troublemaking wife, then he will take action. There will be no mercy for this.

I thought that the two of them would just ignore each other, but Jia Lian seemed so angry that he put down his tea bowl and asked directly:

"General Lin, there are only you and me in this hall at this time. Tell the truth. Did you ask someone to do the thing about my wife being deceived?"

Hua Twelve laughed when he heard this. He did this. How could he admit it? Jia Lian's oil shuttle turned white, and he was short-lived. If he had been in the court for several years, he would not have asked this question.

He smiled and said: "Guess!"

Jia Lian looked at his expression of being so angry that he was not willing to pay for his life. He didn't know that it had something to do with him. Thinking of the 35,000 taels of gold that Wang Xifeng's prodigal woman had been cheated out of, she couldn't help but asked angrily:

"Last time you came to my house, no one else cared about you, but I still treated you as a relative. How could you do such a thing?"

Before he could finish speaking, Hua Twelve waved his hand and interrupted:

"Second Brother Lian, you should ask your sister-in-law about this. Which family's relatives ambushed them on the road at night, intending to throw shit at them? And which family's relatives bribed people from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, intending to embarrass their relatives, bad guys What's the future? I'm really afraid of such a relative!"

Jia Lian was startled when he heard this: "Is there such a thing? Please tell me carefully!"

Hua Twelve smiled faintly: "Even if I say that, it's just one-sided words. Instead, you talk about people's rights and wrongs behind their backs, so why bother talking about it? If Brother Lian really wants to know, he can go back and ask Sister-in-law Lian to understand the cause and effect! "

He deliberately emphasized the words "cause and effect" to let Jia Lian understand that water has a source, trees have roots, and there is a reason for cheating you of 35,000 taels of gold. Putting aside the facts, you will No responsibility? Telling the facts is the first thing you do!

When Jia Lian was told by Hua Twelve, his expression became uncertain. After a while, he said, "Then wait until I ask."

After saying that, he seemed to feel that his tone was a bit stiff again. After holding it in for a long time, he said again: "Drink tea!"

Hua Twelve was amused by this, nodded, picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.

After a while, there was the sound of footsteps outside, and a figure ran in, with a happy face: "Brother Lian, is it Sister Lin here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Hua Twelve also in the hall, and his smile suddenly faded: "You, why are you here too?"

The person who came was none other than Big Face Treasure.

Hua Twelve's face turned cold: "Of course I came here because I was afraid that my girl would be bullied by some cat or dog. Little fat man, if you dare to go to Rongqing Hall now, I will kill you in Rongguo Mansion. Do you believe it or not?"

After he finished speaking, he put his left hand on the teacup, closed his fingers, and with a click, the teacup was broken by him, and then he twisted it and turned it into powder.

Hua Twelve did all this with a calm expression throughout the whole process, but his eyes revealed cold murderous intent.

The big-faced baby felt cold all over his body when he looked into Hua Twelve's eyes. He was so frightened that he sat on the ground, his face turned pale and speechless.

Jia Lian was still a little responsible. Although he was also a little scared, he still said in a trembling voice: "General Lin, Baoyu..., he, he is still young, how could you scare him?" Smile: "Brother Lian was joking. I was joking with him. I wasn't trying to scare him!"

At this time, Jia Baoyu felt wet under her buttocks. When she looked down, her face turned red, she cried loudly, got up, turned around and ran away.

Hua Twelve pointed at a puddle of water on the ground and laughed: "No, I was so scared that I peed!"

Seeing this, Jia Lian smiled bitterly and shook his head. Now the old lady knew it. She couldn't afford to offend Lin Chong, but he had to be scolded. He sighed:

"Baoyu loves flowers, but his mind is simple and he doesn't have any evil thoughts. Why should you be the same as him?"

Hua Twelve rolled his eyes: "Brother Lian, forget it. First of all, he is not just your family's business. I, the girl from the Lin family, want a reputation. Secondly, this big-faced treasure with a simple mind in your mouth has been broken for a long time. How can a body of pure yang be so pure? By simplicity, do you mean that you have never been to a place like a brothel?"

When Jia Lian heard this, he was shocked and said: "How is this possible? How old is Baoyu?"

Hua Twelve waved his hand and interrupted: "I am a martial arts practitioner. There is no mistake in this. I think the simple person is you, Brother Lian!"

Jia Lian thought that Jia Baoyu usually loved to run into girls' boudoirs, and sometimes rolled in his wife's arms coquettishly. Suddenly, he felt nauseated, as if he had swallowed a fly.

It was another cup of tea, and Lin Daiyu came out of Rongqing Hall suddenly, her eyes a little red, obviously talking about something sad with Jia Mu.

Seeing Daiyu come out, Hua Twelve stood up and said goodbye to Jia Lian.

After leaving Jia's house and returning home, Lin Daiyu said: "Brother, my grandmother asked Brother Lian to go to Yangzhou with us. She said that my father was her son-in-law and the elder of Brother Lian, so she asked Brother Lian to go to Yangzhou with us. Fulfilling her filial piety is also her heartfelt wish!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Hua Twelve carefully, as if she was afraid that he would not agree.

Hua Twelve rubbed Lin Daiyu's head and agreed with a smile: "Since it is your grandmother's wish for your uncle, what right do I have to object? Let Brother Lian go to Yangzhou with us!"

He knew in his heart that Jia's mother had not given up the idea of ​​​​exterminating her family. She probably thought that Lin Ruhai was dying and wanted Jia Lian to go to Yangzhou to ask for sister Lin's custody rights, and then naturally take over the Lin family's property.

On the day of departure, Hua Twelve originally planned to ride on horseback. Lin Daiyu and other girls were already very enthusiastic about practicing Chinese martial arts with him. Riding to Yangzhou was not a big deal, but the Jia family directly built a two-story road. Boat, simply took the waterway.

Since he was traveling by boat and waterway, Hua Twelve simply took the whole family with him, leaving only his father-in-law Zhang to help him look after the house in Bianliang.

Boarding the ship at the dock that day, I met Jia Lian again. After the latter met, his face was complicated and tangled, but he lacked the faint hatred before. He probably asked Wang Xifeng about the cause and effect, but it was only 35,000 taels. He still couldn't get over the golden hurdle, so he seemed to be a little confused.

After boarding the ship, the female family members were arranged on the second floor, while Hua Twelve, Lu Da, and Yang Zhi lived on the first floor.

Jia Lian was very sensible and saw that Zhang Zhenniang also lived on the second floor, so he simply did not go upstairs. However, he did not want to see Hua Twelve, so he simply spent most of the time in the cabin and rarely showed up.

The building boat departed from Kaifeng and headed for the canal along the Luo Canal. There was nothing to say all the way. As Huaiyin approached in the evening, I planned to spend the night in Huaiyin. The next day, I could turn around and head south to Yangzhou.

But just after dinner, I saw a merchant ship moored on the river in front of me. There were more than a dozen people on the ship fighting, and there were many corpses on the deck. It looked very tragic.

Yang Zhi and Lu Da both looked at Hua Twelve, who muttered: "Look first and then talk!"

Jia Lian heard the commotion and came out to check. When he saw this scene, he was shocked and told the boatman to get around quickly and not to get close, so as not to scare the female family members on the boat.

Yang Zhi and Lu Da originally showed disdain when they heard that Jia Lian was so timid, but when they heard that he mentioned that he was afraid of disturbing the female family members, they both felt that it was reasonable and simply stopped meddling.

But someone on the merchant ship saw the flag of Rongguo Mansion on the building ship here, and immediately shouted:

"Which nobleman from the Rongguo Mansion is on the ship? I am the left-behind commander of the Daming Mansion, and I am originally from the Rongguo Mansion. I encountered thieves hijacking the ship this time. Please help me quickly!"

When Jia Lian heard this, he immediately became embarrassed. Originally, he planned to stay out of the matter, but then he heard that the other party was actually an old member of Rongguo. If he didn't care about this, the reputation of Rongguo Mansion would be ruined, but he didn't have the ability to take care of it. , he could only look for help at Hua Twelve who was watching the show.

Hua Twelve said loudly: "How many years have passed since the death of this Tijue, Duke of Rongguo? Where did you come from the old department of Rongguo?"

The man was holding a big mountain-cutting ax and was fighting two strong men with simple knives. Hearing this, he said angrily:

"I joined the Forbidden Army when I was a teenager, and now that I am thirty years old, why have I never seen Duke Dai Shan?"

One of the two strong men fighting with him shouted loudly:

"What Rongguo Mansion? Get away from me. If you meddle in this business today, I will kill you with one knife and not bury them!"

The man who spoke had red hair and a red beard, and a ferocious appearance. His sword skills were quite exquisite, and he used all ruthless moves. He looked like a ruthless man.

There were other thieves on the boat who fought fiercely with Natihad's men. At this time, they cut down a few more. When they heard this, they all shouted loudly:

"That's right. If you dare to meddle in other people's business, I will kill you or bury you!"

After saying this, the thieves laughed loudly.

Lu Zhishen was so excited that he shouted loudly to the boatman on his side: "Get closer quickly, I want to see how these birdmen can kill Sajia!"

He said that he had already gone to the cabin to get the sixty-two kilogram water mill Zen rod.

Jia Lian walked to Hua Twelve and asked for help: "General Lin, Brother Lin, please help me come up with an idea!"

Hua Twelve smiled lightly and said: "What are you afraid of, second brother Lian? With our brothers here, let alone these few thieves, even a hundred and eighty strong men will not be enough to kill our brothers!"

When Jia Lian heard this, he felt relieved and boldly asked the boatman to get closer.

Thanks to: 08a, Brother Xiao Xiaohu in the Demon World for the reward, and thanks to the brothers who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes, thank you very much.
