The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

When I went to the capital, the sky was filled with clouds and thunder, and the storm was coming.

Wanyan Zongbi and Lin Chong had just returned to the city. They went to Huining to transport Wanyan Zongbi's coffin and rushed back as soon as the funeral was over.

Wanyan Zongwang passed away in Shangjing, Wu Qimai posthumously named him the King of Wei, presented him as a gift to Shaobao, and added him to the title of King of Liao and Yan. He was entitled to the temple of Taizu and was given the posthumous title of Huansu.

Wanyan Zongwang's eldest son, Wanyan Qi, was granted the title of General and the Military Envoy of Anwu Army. This time he accompanied Wanyan Zongbi to Beijing.

After the reception banquet was over, Lin Chong resigned and rode home in the rain.

The place where he lives now is Yelu Dashi's mansion. Yelu Dashi is simple and simple. Although the place he lives in is large, it is not luxurious at all. Lin Chong did not rearrange the decoration after moving in, and everything remained almost as it was.

When he arrived in front of the mansion, someone naturally led the horse and held an umbrella, and he went straight to the back hall.

The door of the hall was closed at the moment, but he was very skilled in martial arts. Even in the wind and rain, he could still hear the faint sound of sobbing in the hall.

He frowned, with a complicated look on his face, and knocked on the door a few times: "Sanniang, I'm back."

After a few breaths, the hall door opened, and Hu Sanniang said at the door: "How can the general come back despite the rain?"

Lin Chong said in a calm tone: "I am thinking about home. Is Madam in there?"

Hu Sanniang nodded and said: "Be with the young master."

Lin Chong stepped into the hall and saw by the light of the butter candle that a young woman was sitting at the table inside. She was extremely beautiful, but she was crying in a low voice.

There was a little child in front of her, about two or three years old, with a confused face. His little hands were supporting the woman's knees. She didn't know why her mother was sad.

Lin Chong walked forward a few steps quickly, then saluted: "Lin Chong pays homage to Madam, and pays homage to Young Master."

The woman looked at him, hurriedly wiped away her tears, stood up and said, "General Lin, you don't have to be like this. We, the two of you, are bothering the general here. We should express our gratitude to the general."

Lin Chong shook his head and said: "What Madam said is a shame. King Yu Chong of Wei has the kindness of Bole and accepted her righteously. Madam will always be Lin Chong's mistress, and the young master will always be Lin Chong's master."

The woman's eyes were filled with sadness and she said: "Now that His Highness is deceased, how can I, an orphan and a widowed mother, still dare to think of myself like this? Isn't it because I don't know good or bad kindness? General Lin no longer needs to be called like this. I can't accept it."

Lin Chong sighed: "Madam, why do you need to..."

"General Lin, if you are escorting His Highness's coffin to Huining this time, please inquire with your family to help him..." the woman whispered.

Lin Chong glanced at the little boy, lowered his head and said: "I once tested the princess with my words, and also tested the crown prince and several princes. King Wei's prediction was true before he died. I'm afraid that the young master... would have difficulty going to Huining Prince's Mansion, and it would be rare for him to be recognize."

The woman was stunned for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "Although I am disappointed, I should have thought that His Highness had made it clear before his death that I was only thinking about the plan to recognize my ancestor and return to my clan, but... I was delusional."

"Madam, alas..." Lin Chong heard this and didn't know what to say at this moment.

This woman was married by Wanyan Zongwang in Shangjing, her name was Xiao Muyu, and she was very polite at the time. She was supposed to bring her back to Huining sooner or later, but Wanyan Zongwang was seriously ill and could not return to a bitter and cold place like Huining, so she had to She stayed here to raise him, and he was also a stay-at-home in Beijing. It was even more difficult to leave, so he kept delaying. The child was already two or three years old, and the mother-in-law had never been to the Second Prince Huining's Mansion.

Before Wanyan Zongwang died, he told the two of them not to go to Huining again. If he died, they would definitely not be accepted there, and it might even be dangerous. He told them to stay in Shangjing and live in the entrustment. Take care of Lin Chong.

Lin Chong and Wanyan Zongbi escorted Wanyan Zongwang's coffin to the north. They were afraid that something might happen to the mother and son, so they temporarily took them to live in their own house and asked Hu Sanniang to take care of them on weekdays.

After he went to Huining, he did test the intentions of Wanyan Zongwang's house. The result was the same as Wanyan Zongwang expected. Not only was there no acceptance, but there was also hatred, so he would definitely not be able to pass.

But what if I don’t go? Orphans and widowers, even if they have a house, money and food and drink, it is not a good thing because they are easily remembered.

Lin Chong thought that there was really no other way to let the mother and son live with him, but he didn't know what Xiao Muyu meant, and as a general, he always had to go out to fight. It would be better if Hu Sanniang was the only one, but this mother If the two of them are targeted by someone, I'm afraid Hu Sanniang alone won't be able to protect them.

"Now that General Lin is back, my mother and son will no longer harass me. When the rain stops, I will take Tu'er home." Xiao Muyu said at this time.

Lin Chong immediately shook his head when he heard this: "Madam and young master, we'd better stay here for the time being. Don't worry about whether the rain stops or not. We'll talk about staying here for a while."

"Stay here for a while longer..." Xiao Muyu looked at Lin Chong, shook his head and said, "It's not an option."

Hu Sanniang also came up to advise: "It doesn't matter where you live, Madam. There are few people there, and there are few people here. It can be more lively if Madam stays here. Although this place is simple, fortunately, we husband and wife can keep Madam company."

Xiao Muyu thought for a while and suddenly looked at Lin Chong: "Did General Lin come back by himself this time?"

Lin Chong shook his head: "It's not just me, there's also the Fourth Prince Zongbi, and..."

He stopped at this point, feeling that it was not easy to continue. After all, Wanyan Qi was Wanyan Zongwang's eldest son, and he was afraid that the other party would not like it if he said it.

Xiao Muyu looked at his expression and suddenly said: "But His Highness's family is coming with you?"

Lin Chong smiled bitterly: "Madam, this..."

Xiao Muyu looked at him with a troubled expression: "General Lin, you don't have to say anything, I know, then I will continue to bother you in the house for a while."

Lin Chong said hurriedly: "Madam, you can stay here as long as you like. It's best to stay here forever so that Lin Chong can repay King Wei for his kindness."

Xiao Muyu nodded and said to Hu Sanniang: "Sanniang, come with me to the room to chat for a while. I have something on my mind that I want to talk to you about."

Hu Sanniang nodded, and she and her son went out to the back house. Lin Chong called his servants over and sent them to the east kitchen to get snacks and send them over. Then he walked around the hall twice and sat on a chair, dazed.

Wanyan Zongwang was very kind to him. He took him in when he was desperate and gave him a high official, a generous salary, and a horse in his mansion. Now, although Wanyan Zongwang died, before he died, he asked Zongbi to continue to promote him. This kindness will be repaid no matter what. The mother and son must also be taken care of to ensure their safety.

More than half an hour later, Hu Sanniang came out of Xiao Muyu's room with a slightly puzzled look on her face. Although she had just been chatting and laughing with him, he kept talking about things in the past, from his childhood to his teenage years, and also mentioned that he had been a maid in the Liaoxi County Prince's Mansion.

This is something Hu Sanniang didn't know before. Xiao Muyu is one of the maids of Princess Yanmin. When Princess Yanmin of Daliao rode a eagle out of the city and escaped to marry Yelu Dashi, she had heard about it, but so far, No one can tell clearly who Princess Yanmin eloped with at that time.

Xiao Muyu seemed to be talking about all the things she had experienced in her life. Hu Sanniang felt different from the previous chat. Although Xiao Muyu's demeanor did not change, it was always strange to suddenly say these things. She did not go back to her courtyard after going out, but walked forward. , I want to ask Lin Chong how to persuade the other party to let go of his worries. In the room, watching Hu Sanniang go out and leave, Xiao Muyu gently pulled the child over.

The little boy said, "Mom, why are you crying again?"

Xiao Muyu held him tightly in her arms, and then murmured: "Tu'er, do you hate being your mother?"

"Mom, why do I hate you?"

Xiao Muyu looked at the child's puzzled look, wiped his tears, and then reached out and took off a necklace from his neck. In front of the chain was a white jade swallow plaque, engraved with a flying swallow flying in the sky.

She put it around the child's neck, and then said: "Tu'er, remember, don't take off this necklace at any time, it will keep you safe."

The child wondered: "Mom, did your father give you this?"

Xiao Muyu shook his head, seemed to have thought of something, and said: "If someone recognizes this brand in the future and asks where he got it, you mention my mother's name. That person... is a relative of my mother. No matter what she says, you Everyone must obey, everyone must believe, and must not disobey.”

The child nodded subconsciously. Xiao Muyu touched the child's head, then sat down at the table, picked up a pen and started writing on the paper.

After finishing writing for a while, he came over again, straightened the child's clothes, and then his tears fell again. He looked at the child and said, "Tu'er remember, from today on, the wife of the Hu family is your biological mother, and General Lin is your father."

When the child heard this, he was immediately shocked: "Mom, what are you talking about, where are you going? Don't leave Tu'er."

Xiao Muyu took the little boy into his arms: "Child, remember, from today on, these two are your parents. General Lin has been childless for half his life, so you will be his son, and your name will be Lin Tu!"

"Mom, my surname is Wanyan, and my name is Wanyantu..." Although the child didn't know what his mother meant, he felt a bad omen and burst into tears.

"Wanyan..." Xiao Muyu looked to the northeast. Although there was a wall blocking it, her eyes seemed to penetrate into the land of thousands of mountains and rivers. She said calmly: "Tu'er, please remember now, Jurchen Wanyan My family has a great enmity with you. It is an enmity, not a kinship, and it will remain the same forever and ever. From today on, your surname will no longer be Wanyan, your surname will be Lin, and your name will be Lin Tu!"

"I, I..." The child cried even more violently when he heard this.

Xiao Muyu pushed the child away at this time, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured a bright red pill into his palm, then raised his hand and put it into his mouth.

"Mother, mother, what are you eating..." the child cried and rushed forward.

Hu Sanniang walked to the front hall and told Lin Chong what had just happened. Lin Chong also looked confused after hearing this, but then his expression changed drastically, he yelled "no", pulled Hu Sanniang and ran out.

When he arrived at the back house, Lin Chong asked Hu Sanniang to knock on the door. After two or three knocks, Lin Chong frowned and said, "It seems that the little master is crying. Sanniang, hurry in!"

Hu Sanniang opened the door, the two of them entered, and walked quickly to the inner room. They saw that Xiao Muyu's face was pale, blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and he had no breath.

Hu Sanniang hurriedly hugged the child. Lin Chong caught sight of the paper on the table and hurriedly picked it up to read. After reading it, he sighed and handed the paper to Hu Sanniang: "Madam has taken Hedinghong, and will...entrust the little master to us." ”

Hu Sanniang also finished reading the letter, her expression was dull, she looked at the child in her arms and murmured: "Tu'er, your mother, did your mother say anything before?"

The child cried loudly, and it took him a long time to say: "Mother ordered me to call the Queen Mother Hu, and call General Lin father. She also said, and also said... I will no longer be called Wanyan Tu, but will be called Lin Tu."

"Lin Tu..." Looking at the child, Lin Chong muttered to himself. At this time, a flash of lightning flashed outside the window, illuminating his face. There was a hint of joy in the complexity...

In Tokyo City, opposite Daxiangguo Temple, Dingjia Su Tea Shop.

Today is the fifth trading day of Daxiangguo Temple every month. Not only is the temple bustling, the streets outside the temple are also crowded with people, and the vegetarian tea shop is even more crowded.

Huo Sijiu stood behind the case and told the story. Huo Xuanji had grown into a graceful girl with unparalleled beauty, but she still had two pigtails, just like she had when she was a child.

What Huo Siju was talking about was not three points, but a newly compiled talk called the Twenty-eight Generals of Yuntai Pavilion. It tells that in the late Western Han Dynasty, when Wang Mang usurped power, his clan relative Liu Xiu rose up and led his men to overthrow the new dynasty. Continuing the story of the Han Dynasty and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Xiu was able to fight the world over again. He had many generals under his command, but the most outstanding were only twenty-eight. Among them, the most powerful one in martial arts was Jia Fu Jia Junwen, who was known as the Silver Halberd Tai Sui Snow King.

Jia Fu was the best horseman in the late Western Han Dynasty, but some people were dissatisfied. Ma Zizhang, the Huadao Taisui Five Plague God, who was also Liu Xiu's general, had always been dissatisfied with each other and often provoked Jia Fu to fight.

At this time, Huo Sizhu was talking about two people competing in martial arts in the school examination hall. One used a halberd and the other used a sword. One had exquisite moves, the other had infinite strength. One drew a halberd to turn the sky, and the other split the ground with a flower knife. The fight was so dark that the sky and the ground were dark. The moonlight was not shining, but the tea guests below were so mesmerized that they couldn't help themselves, and even forgot to drink the tea.

At this moment, sitting on the tea table dedicated to Zhao Yu in front of the case, an old man was sitting. The old man was slender, wearing a light blue shirt, with a gray beard, his eyes were half open and half closed, and he seemed to be drowsy.

Sitting in front of him was a little child, who was only three years old, but no less tired than the old man. His eyes were wide open. He was obviously fascinated by the book. He suddenly turned around and tugged on the old man's beard: "Father, father-in-law." Don’t sleep, come and hear which general will win.”

The old man opened his eyes with an "ouch": "Jian'er, don't trim your father-in-law's beard. It's hard to trim your father-in-law's beard, so don't mess it up."

The child immediately let go of his hand, stuck out his tongue, and continued to listen carefully to the book.

The old man is Huang Shang, and the child is the little Huang Jian who was sent back by Zhao Tong. Huang Shang has not seen Huang Gu for several years, and he scolded him when he thought of it, but when he saw the little Huang Jian, he fell in love with it. Come out to play, eat whatever is delicious, and buy whatever is fun.

After a while, after the book was finished, Huo Xuanji cleared the table and Huo Sizhu sat down to drink tea to soothe his throat. Huang Shang suddenly said: "Mr. Huo is going to Beijing?"

Huo Sizhu leaned forward slightly and said with a smile: "I was taken by the old bachelor."

Huang Shang thought for a moment and said, "There are masters among the white mountains and black waters. Do you believe that, Mr. Huo?"

Huo Sizhu shook his head: "I wonder if I can keep it, old bachelor can teach me?"

Huang Shang waved his hand: "What to teach? But Mi Duzhi once met the Jurchen Shaman Immortal Zhi back then, why not go and talk about it?"

Huo Siju said: "It's so good that I bother the old bachelor to go with me."

Huang Shang smiled, stood up and led Xiao Huang Jian out, followed by Huo Sizhu and Huo Xuanji...
