The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 108 Double Flying Wings

At two o'clock in the morning, Xiao Qi sent me out of the palace gate, and said in a low voice: "Guan, Xiao Qi is not by your side, the official takes care of himself."

I patted Xiao Qi on the shoulder: "Xiao Qi, if there is something urgent in the court, you can ask Long Ya to send a message to me."

"Yes, official."

Saying goodbye to Xiaoqi, Yuan Ji, Lan Yu, and Shen Mo and I walked towards Shifeng Commercial Walk together.

After nearly half a year of practicing Changquan in the third quarter, my speed and strength have improved a lot. Today is just another day of rest, and there is silence outside the palace. Under the cover of night, the four of us are extremely fast. After a while, they arrived at Shifeng Commercial Bank.After meeting up with Fang Ling who was waiting in the business house, the five of us got on our steeds, left the south gate of Lin'an, and headed south along the official road.

Since I came back from Kuaiji Province, I have also put in a lot of effort in equestrianism. Coupled with the unremitting practice of martial arts, the overall performance of my body is no longer comparable to that of the original Zhao Xuan, and my equestrian skills are becoming more and more superb.

Wenzhang, who had been waiting for a long time, had already prepared water, dry food and other things after passing by the Youth Guard's station, and joined our team.

The air in the suburbs is exceptionally fresh and refreshing.Looking from a distance, the morning sun is rosy, and the surrounding clouds are also brighter.Both sides of the road are filled with purple air from time to time, and the farmers who get up early are indistinct in the mist. This is a typical agricultural scene in the south of the Yangtze River, full of the charm of ink and wash, which can be seen and heard. , it's a new day.

New day, new hope.

I took a deep breath and gave the order: "Let's go."

Shen Mo took the lead, and I followed closely behind. Fang Ling and Wen Zhang guarded me on both sides, Yuan Ji and Lan Yu Duan were behind. Although my riding skills were not comparable to others, they were still very fast.

The horse I stepped on was named Feiyan, which means "horse stepping on a flying swallow". It is a BMW tribute from the Western Regions.

Everyone was riding on good horses, and they galloped south according to my speed.

Jinhua is located on the eastern edge of the Jinqu Basin. It was called Wuzhou in the Song Dynasty, and it is about [-] kilometers away from Jinhua in later generations.In my memory, Jinhua is most famous for the two caves in Jinhua. People of our time grew up learning this text.

After running all the way, I finally arrived at Jinhua City before sunset. If my riding skills were not perfect enough, I would have arrived an hour earlier.This was the first time I galloped on a horse for a day. Although my movements were out of shape and I was exhausted later, this feeling was really exciting. No wonder many rich second generations in later generations like racing cars. The feeling is straight to forget everything.

Compared with Lin'an, Jinhua is much smaller, the city walls are low, and the area is only one-eighth of the capital.

We stayed at the Yuelai Inn near the government office. This is a small inn. Shen Mo, who arrived a few minutes earlier, reserved six rooms on the second floor.After a day's long journey, everyone's skill levels were revealed. Yuan Ji didn't change at all, Lan Yu Fang Ling and the others were slightly short of breath, but I was already out of breath. Fortunately, my body is not what it used to be. Back to normal after a while.

After dinner, Shen Mo brought Song Chengzu to my room.

"Song Chengzu pays homage to the young master." Shen Mo told Song Chengzu who arrived in Jinhua yesterday that my identity as Mr. Huyan was on the road.

"Mr. Song, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, my lord." Song Chengzu sat down and looked at the people beside me and said, "My lord, you have worked hard all the way."

I smiled and said, "Mr. Song, I'm just traveling this time to see if there are any business opportunities. These are all members of my firm. I heard in the capital a few days ago that Mr. came here to investigate the case. I don't know how it is going. ?”

Song Chengzu said somewhat cautiously: "Young master, I came here to investigate the case of Gai Jiaotian under the order of the Ministry of Punishment. The only suspect now is Hu Yun, the former prison officer in Jinhua. I visited Hu Yun's office in Jinhua in the past two days. He also asked about the neighbors and neighbors, and found an important clue until today’s dinner. Hu Yun is single and rents in Jinhua. He hired a middle-aged woman named Li. He would go to Hu Yun's house to help clean up and wash his clothes. Just two days before the incident, when Mrs. Li was doing laundry for Hu Yun, she found an extra set of other men's clothes. Mrs. Li had been doing laundry for Hu Yun for many years, so she naturally knew that Mrs. Hu Yun’s condition, he casually asked, but Hu Yun didn’t care at the time, saying it belonged to his younger brother. Later, Hu Yun remembered something and told Mrs. Li not to tell others about it. Mrs. Li was not a talkative person until Hu Yun Missing, I only mentioned it when I went to inquire."

"Hu Yun's younger brother, Hu Feng?"

"Probably."

"If it's really Hu Feng, it's a bit strange. He didn't come sooner or later, but he just came before something happened."

"Yes, young master, I also think there is a problem. Gai Jiaotian was escorted to Jinhua Prison, and it took only half a day. The murderer could not have known in advance, and only the people in the government office had the opportunity to know. Among them, Hu Yun is the only one whose whereabouts are unknown, so for the time being, he has become the only suspect. These days, we have also investigated the insiders one by one at the time, but there is no result yet."

"Well, Mr. Song, let's go back first. I will go to Hu Yun's residence with you tomorrow."

"Yes, son."

After Song Chengzu left, Fang Ling said enthusiastically: "Brother, it's still early, let's go outside for a stroll."

"Okay, let's go for a walk."

I feel more and more that Fang Ling is cute. Fang Ling rarely asks me about things. Even if he knows that I know the dignitaries in the capital, and also knows that I have great influence in the capital, he just regards me as the owner of Shifeng Trading Co., Ltd. owner.

Fang Ling said, I knew you were my brother.My identity, on the contrary, is redundant.

Although Jinhua City is small, it is also lively at night. Liangzhe Road is indeed the most affluent place in the Southern Song Dynasty. The busiest night market in Jinhua City is on Shuangxi Street behind Fuya. All the snacks and goods sold in Jinhua are concentrated here. shops.It’s no wonder that during the Song Dynasty, the tax revenue for agriculture was already less than [-]%. From the bustling night market in Jinhua City, it can be seen that business has gradually revealed itself.

Fang Ling took my arm and weaved through the bustling crowd, while Yuan Ji and the others formed a semicircle close beside him.

"Brother, this one is good, ah, that one is also good." Fang Ling said happily while watching.

"Ling'er, just buy whatever you like."

"Hehe, are you so generous, a profiteer?"

"Of course, for Ling'er, brother can do anything."

Before we knew it, we walked to a shop selling jewelry.

Fang Ling glanced at the jewelry and said, "Brother, help Linger choose one."

I said "hmm", looked at it for a long time, picked up a bracelet, and said, "Ling'er, how about this?"

This is a bracelet inlaid with gold and silver. It is connected at the intersection with a small buckle. The small buckle seems to be naturally formed. Although it is not as exquisite as the later generations in terms of craftsmanship, it can be regarded as flawless. , I really didn't expect such a small shop to have such high-quality products. Of course, this bracelet is naturally not comparable to those treasures in the palace.

"I'll try." Fang Ling stretched out his wrist and shook it in front of my eyes after putting it on, "Brother, how is it?"

"Well, not bad, Linger, what do you think?"

"Brother, as long as you like it." Fang Ling smiled shyly, "Ling'er has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and has never worn a bracelet. This is considered to be for my brother."

Immediately, I felt a surge of excitement in my heart. The scholar died for the confidant, and the woman for the pleasing to the self. I hurriedly said to Lan Yu next to me: "Lan Yu, pay the money."

Walking out of the shop, Fang Ling said, "Brother, give this bracelet a name."

"Ah, do you want to name the bracelet?"

"Yes, brother gave this to Ling'er, isn't it different?" Fang Ling said coquettishly.

I thought for a while and said, "One side of this bracelet is gold and the other side is silver. It looks like two wings of returning geese. I think it's called double flying wings."

"Double Flying Wings?" Fang Ling smiled sweetly, "The gold and silver are indeed a bit like two flying swallows. Brother, you are so talented."

"Li Shangyin's poem, without a colorful phoenix and two flying wings, has a clear understanding of the heart, maybe it is talking about this bracelet."

Fang Ling laughed out loud: "Brother, I just praised you and started talking nonsense again. Li Shangyin was an ancient man hundreds of years ago, how would he know that there is this bracelet today?"

"Well, maybe Li Shangyin came to see it when he traveled."

"Traveling? What does this mean?" Fang Ling has long been used to my new term, but this is the first time I've heard of the word crossing.
