The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 271 Care
The crowd surrounded Jia Huan like stars over the moon, and they were relieved when they found that he was intact. Feng Ziying said as if she was relieved: "Finally, the red lady still keeps her promise. If Brother Huan makes a mistake, I, Feng Ziying, will never redeem myself even if I die."

Tiehu snorted heavily, obviously very dissatisfied with Feng Ziying for watching Jia Huan being kidnapped, and Shitou, the boy, also obviously looked bad.

Jia Huan said hurriedly: "Brother Feng is serious. I can't blame you for the situation at that time. I would have been helpless."

Feng Ziying glanced at Tiehu and Xingwei with stern faces, and said with a wry smile: "Even so, brother Ruohuan is in trouble because of this, how can I feel at ease with brother Feng? Hey, who is this little girl?"

At this time, everyone noticed that Xiao Xing Yuan had been squeezed out of the circle. Shitou almost jumped up and blurted out: "Miss Yuanyuan?"

Tiehu also rubbed his eyes in surprise and looked up and down at the bright-eyed little girl in front of him.

Under the attention of everyone, Xiao Xingyuan's face had already turned red. He smiled shyly and said, "Brother Shitou, Brother Huzi."

Xing Wei scratched his head and ears excitedly, Tiehu grinned and said: "It turns out that the girl who played the music that night was really Miss Yuanyuan. After hearing this, Shitou almost rushed into the enemy to rescue people, but fortunately, Third Master and I stopped him."

Xing Yuan felt warm in her heart and said with a touch of emotion: "Thank you Brother Shitou for your concern. Yuanyuan is fine. She was just sold to my aunt by a scammer. My aunt was very kind to me and didn't embarrass me."

"Oh, that's good!" Xing Wei laughed awkwardly. He hadn't seen her for more than three years. The little girl had grown a lot taller and stood as graceful as a lotus out of the water. He still felt a little ashamed of himself, and her clear, mirror-like eyes made him even more embarrassed. He dared not look directly.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Xing Yuan carefully, and couldn't help but express his surprise. Although this little girl was not old, she had the appearance of a lotus. When she grows up, she will become another world-famous beauty of the calamity level. Thinking of this, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but think of Lin Daiyu who had a surprise glimpse in Lin's mansion that day.

Lu Xiangsheng's idea is obviously not an exaggeration. Chen Yuanyuan in history was indeed a beauty who conquered the country and the city. Wu Sangui was so angry for her that he did not hesitate to leave an eternal infamy and lure the Qing soldiers into the pass to kill Li Zicheng. But in this world of Red Mansions, there is no Ming Dynasty. There was Nurhachi in the North, so I don’t know if there was Wu Sangui who became a beauty in anger.

At this time, Feng Ziying asked curiously: "What trick did Brother Huan use to let the female bandit leader let you go and let the little girl Yuan Yuan go?"

Jia Huan said: "This matter is a long story. I will go into details after I meet with the governor first."

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Master Lin was very worried when he learned that Ziming was kidnapped. He wanted to send his troops to the sea to surround Dulong Island and force the red lady to release her. Fortunately, Ziming returned safely in time."

Jia Huan felt warm in his heart. Lin Ruhai himself was extremely ill. Hearing that he was in danger, he did not hesitate to lead the troops to sea personally. This caring went beyond the relationship between relatives, and even the relationship between master and apprentice. It was said to be licking the calf. It's not an exaggeration to say that he was deeply affectionate, so he quickly asked: "Jiandou, where is Master Lin? I'll go see him right now."

"Just boarded the ship." Lu Xiangsheng replied.

Jia Huan hurriedly ran to the dock, and happened to see Lin Ruhai walking off the ship supported by his own soldiers. Yi Hong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Dai Li, the commander of the Yangzhou Guard, and the commanders of the Gaoyou Guard and Taizhou Guard were also accompanying him. Jia Huan quickly stepped forward and knelt down: "Huan'er pays homage to my uncle. Huan'er deserves to die for making my uncle so worried."

Lin Ruhai didn't blame him, he just nodded and said, "It's good to be back. Get up. Don't act so recklessly in the future."

"Yes, Huan'er will remember Master Lin's teachings." Jia Huan kowtowed respectfully before standing up.

Dai Li, the commander of the Yangzhou Guard, still had gauze wrapped around his head. His eyes were complicated and his mood was extremely complicated. He originally thought that after Jia Huan was kidnapped by the bandit leader Red Lady, there would be no return, so he was secretly happy for this. Because as soon as Jia Huan died, Lin Ruhai lost a powerful arm, which made it much easier to deal with. After all, no matter how smart Lin Ruhai was, he would eventually be so sick that he only had half his life left. As for the other disciple beside him, Lu Xiangsheng, Although this boy is talented, he is too straightforward and far less flexible than Jia Huan.

However, before Dai Li could be happy for two days, Jia Huan came back in full swing. Grandma, this kid is really lucky!
Looking at Yi Hong, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, his broken left hand was still bandaged. He didn't care much about Jia Huan's life and death. He was just curious about how this kid escaped from the female bandit leader Qin Hongyu, so he asked: "Jia Xiucai, Did that female bandit leader Red Lady really let you go?"

Jia Huan nodded, and Yi Hong rolled his eyes and said, "So, this Qin Hongyu is quite trustworthy, but it's strange, why did this female bandit leader go to lurk outside Haimen, and happened to catch Jia Xiucai? Is there any reason for this? ”

Jia Huan replied calmly: "Qin Hongyu was injured and lacked medical treatment, so she had to risk going ashore to seek medical advice. I happened to be injured, so she took me hostage."

Next, Jia Huan roughly told the story, and everyone couldn't help being surprised after hearing it for too long.

Yi Hong's eyes shone brightly and he said: "I see, there was internal strife on Dulong Island. Kang Dayong's rebellious boy rebelled and killed Gu San Mazi, and he took the top spot on Dulong Island. Mr. Lin, This is a rare opportunity. We can send troops to encircle Dulong Island while Kang Dayong is not yet firmly established. We will get twice the result with half the effort and completely eliminate Kang Dayong's scourge in one fell swoop."

Lin Ruhai was silent for a moment and nodded: "Commander Yi's words are very true, but I am not good at leading troops in battle, and I have no experience in water warfare. In addition, I am weak and sick, so I am afraid I will not be able to handle the important task of encircling Dulong Island. How about leaving it to Master Yi to take full command?"

As soon as he said this, Yi Hong was stunned. After a while, he coughed lightly and said: "Master Lin is being too modest, but I thought about it for a moment. Gu Sanmazi has been running Dulong Island for many years, and the defense on the island must be extremely strong. , In addition, these pirates are familiar with naval warfare, and without the help of regular navy, a hasty encirclement and suppression may not be effective, so we need to consider the long term!"

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but secretly laugh, stroking his beard and pretending to be awake and said: "Indeed, sending troops at this time is indeed too hasty, we need to discuss it later!"

Yi Hong couldn't help but cursed the old fox secretly, "If Jia Huan hadn't come back, you might have already set sail and went to sea, and you still have no long-term plans."

It is said that Yi Hong is so happy about his success. When Jia Huan said that there was internal strife on Dulong Island and that Kang Dayong was seizing power, he wanted to take the opportunity to send troops to capture Dulong Island. However, he encountered a storm last time he went to sea and almost wiped out his entire army. Now he still has lingering fears. If With Lin Ruhai accompanying him to shoulder the responsibility, he still had the guts to take another risk, but since Lin Ruhai didn't go, he was solely responsible for it, but he was timid again. On the contrary, he couldn't find a reason to send troops, which was actually a bit funny.
