The ace special forces of the Sui Dynasty

That afternoon, Yang Jishan sent someone to deliver 370 taels of silver.Xiao Xin is the master, and each household is divided into three taels of silver, and the rest of the silver is shared by the whole village.According to Liu Ziqiu's intention, the 20 taels of bonus won from Yang Heihu should be kept in the village for public use, but Xiao Xin firmly refused, so he had to give it to Gao Xiuer to keep it first.

The salt field was officially started, and the new Changshan Village was also built at the same time.

According to the size of the saltworks, Li Guanshi only asked Changshan Village to provide [-] young and strong laborers.With dividends, these young and old people are not paid, but the salt farm will provide a free lunch.Li Guanshi is meticulous in planning and budgeting, but he will not carelessly support idlers.

The saltworks are well-built. Except for the open-air saltpans and ditches, other places are covered with blue bricks and fine tiles.In contrast, the houses in Xinchangshan Village are much more shabby, with walls still made of rammed earth and roofs made of thatch.

The eighty young men who were sent to work in the salt were all appointed by Xiao Xin, and Liu Ziqiu was among them. He worked in the salt field during the day, returned to the Qiantang River to build a new home at night, and taught Gao Xiuer boxing by the way. Busy and fulfilling.

Half a month later, the new Changshan Village was built, the villagers moved into their new homes, and the former barren beach became lively.Unexpectedly, many years later, this place has become a holy place for watching tides on the Qianjiang River.

After another half month, the saltworks finally produced the first batch of table salt.The Yang family has already opened up all the joints, and directly sent it as official salt to various places, earning a lot of money.Looking at the white money, Yang Jishan was in a good mood, and rewarded Li Guanshi with 50 taels of silver on the spot.Li Guanshi was also very happy, and when he came back, he announced a one-day holiday for the whole audience.

Liu Ziqiu, who had worked hard for a month, also returned home. In fact, it should be more accurate to say that it is Daniel's home.Compared with the old house, the biggest change is that the thatched cottage has changed from two rooms to three rooms, and several new chrysanthemums have been planted in the corner of the courtyard.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Liu Ziqiu felt unreal.An ace special soldier was reduced to a wage earner in an ancient saltworks, which made him dumbfounded.He finally made up his mind to meet Yuan Tiangang while he was on vacation tomorrow.

"Brother, it's time to eat!"

Xiu'er's crisp shout interrupted Liu Ziqiu's thoughts.

Today's dinner is very rich, including chicken, fish and a plate of clams, far exceeding the usual standard.Liu Ziqiu couldn't help wondering, "What day is it today?"

Gao Xiu'er smiled and said, "Brother, this is specially prepared for you. I have already learned the first five forms of internal strength. It is time for you to teach me boxing. This is a special reward for you. Don't worry, it didn't cost you much. Chicken is a bolt The pheasant was beaten, the fish was given by my third aunt, and the clams were dug on the beach by Vanilla and I."

"Money is spent when you earn it, don't think so stingy." Liu Ziqiu smiled, and suddenly said seriously: "Xingyi Quan has a total of twelve internal skills, and you only spent a month to learn how to search for the moon in the sea. The five poses of lion fighting ball, dragon looking back, opening and closing eyes, and looking left and right are not easy. From now on, you should practice hard every day, regardless of the cold or heat, and it will be of great benefit to your body!"

"Don't worry, big brother, I promise I won't disappoint you." Gao Xiu'er became excited, and said again: "By the way, big brother, I want to go to the city tomorrow."

Liu Ziqiu took a look at Xiangcao and said, "Isn't her illness cured?"

Gao Xiu'er smiled and said: "It's not for Xiangcao to see a doctor. It's already August, and the weather is getting colder, so you can't always sleep on the ground. I plan to add a bed for the family and buy some quilts. In addition, I also want to buy some pens, ink and paper Yan."

Liu Ziqiu asked in surprise, "What do you buy pens, inks, papers and inkstones for?"

Gao Xiu'er proudly said: "Brother is illiterate, I want to teach him how to read."

Thinking of the scene when Xiao Xin snatched the contract from him that day, Liu Ziqiu thought it was funny, but he didn't expect this girl to be so thoughtful, so he couldn't help reaching out and patting her on the head, and said, "Who said that elder brother can't read? Elder brother knows There are so many words you don't know!"

When learning boxing, it is inevitable that there will be physical contact. After a long time, Gao Xiu'er is no longer as shy as before, and she no longer dodges, but she still blushes.There is something Liu Ziqiu has observed for a long time, and he always finds it strange.Every time, only the left side of Gao Xiuer's face turns red, but her ugly right side doesn't change at all, and she doesn't know what's wrong with her.

Gao Xiu'er didn't believe Liu Ziqiu's words, she stuck out her tongue quietly and muttered, "Blowing!"

There was no moonlight tonight, only the sky was full of stars, Gao Xiu'er practiced move by move in the small courtyard.Now in this small courtyard, the fence is very tightly tied up, in case someone peeps from the outside, you don't need to wait until very late to practice martial arts.

After watching Gao Xiu'er's rehearsal, Liu Ziqiu nodded and said, "You've practiced well, I can teach you boxing techniques, let's start with Xunquan."

Gao Xiuer blinked her eyes and asked, "Why not Paoquan?"

Liu Ziqiu said with a smile: "My daughter belongs to Shui, so of course I should learn Chiquan first."

At dawn, the three went to Yanguan City together.Under the sunlight, the right half of Gao Xiuer's face looked extremely ugly, and passers-by looked sideways.However, Liu Ziqiu had seen it a lot, so he didn't think it was ugly.

Different from the last time, today the gate of Yanguan City was surrounded by many people, and there were still a few soldiers guarding there, as if something had happened.

Vanilla said: "It's really lively. Sister, let's go and have a look."

There was no rush to enter the city today, and Liu Ziqiu was also interested, relying on his height and strength, he squeezed in two or three times. A big fork.

Suddenly, I heard a shout of "ah" from behind, and then heard Xiang Cao anxiously shouting: "Miss, miss, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you..."

Liu Ziqiu turned his head and saw Gao Xiu'er lying on the ground, and Xiang Cao was shaking her desperately, he couldn't help asking: "Xiang Cao, what did you call her just now?"

Vanilla was already in tears, and begged: "Brother, please save Miss, me, I will tell you later, okay?"

The people who were watching the notice were also attracted to them. Seeing Gao Xiu'er's half face, they all covered their faces, and some people retched exaggeratedly.

Liu Ziqiu was disgusted and had no time to save her, so he hugged Gao Xiuer and said, "Let's go! Vanilla, let's go home!"

The new Changshan Village is not too far from Yanguan County. Liu Ziqiu spread his legs and ran like flying.After a while, Xiang Cao also ran back, and without taking a breath, she asked repeatedly: "Brother Big Niu, how is Miss?"

Liu Ziqiu comforted: "Don't worry, I've already checked her pulse. She just passed out in a fit of rage. It's not a serious problem. Tell me, what's going on?"

People who practice martial arts usually know a little bit of medical theory, not to mention that Liu Ziqiu practices internal boxing, he can basically judge that Gao Xiu'er was stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and it may be related to the notice at the gate of the city.

Xiang Cao choked up and said: "Brother Big Niu, we lied to you, miss, she is..."

It turned out that Gao Xiu'er was the youngest daughter of Gao Jiong, a famous founder of the Sui Dynasty.The three people on the announcement just now are He Ruobi, Gao Jiong and Yu Wenbi. They were executed by Emperor Yang Guang for "slandering the imperial court" a few days ago.

Liu Ziqiu has heard of Gao Jiong, because he has done a very famous thing.After the Sui army broke through Jiankang, Gao Jiong ordered the execution of Empress Chen's favorite concubine Zhang Lihua.But this Zhang Lihua was the one Yang Guang wanted, so it was reasonable for Gao Jiong to offend Yang Guang and end up decapitated.

Liu Ziqiu didn't expect Gao Xiuer to be Gao Jiong's daughter, so he couldn't help but sigh, and could only order: "Xiang Cao, take care of your young lady, and call me when she wakes up."

Gao Xiu'er fell into a coma all day, until midnight, when she heard Xiang Cao shout: "Brother Big Niu, Brother Big Niu, miss is awake, miss is awake..."

Liu Ziqiu quickly ran into the back room, only to see Gao Xiu'er sitting on the bed in a daze.

Seeing Liu Ziqiu coming in, Gao Xiuer suddenly lay on his shoulder and burst into tears.Liu Ziqiu patted her on the back lightly, comfortingly said: "Cry, cry, it will feel better after crying."

Suddenly Gao Xiu'er stopped crying and said: "Actually, my father expected this day to come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon."

The strong girl had dried her tears and began to tell.

Gao Jiong offended Yang Guang not only because he killed Zhang Lihua, but also because he supported the old prince Yang Yong. Gao Xiuer's sister-in-law was Yang Yong's daughter.Later, Gao Jiong fell out of favor with Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, and was dismissed from office. He was very happy, thinking that the disaster could be avoided from then on.Unexpectedly, not long after Yang Guang ascended the throne, he issued an imperial edict to reappoint Gao Jiong.

At this time, Gao Jiong knew that his life was not long, and the narrow-minded Yang Guangqi used him to kill him.What's more tragic is that his wife and children will also be used as slaves.Among them, Gao Jiong was most worried about Gao Xiu'er.So before taking office, he sent his confidants to send Gao Xiuer's master and servant to Jiangnan.

Unexpectedly, when they passed by Shandong, they caught up with Yang Guang who ordered the digging of the canal.That family member was forcibly arrested as husband, so Gao Xiuer's master and servant had to go south alone.Gradually, the money was exhausted, and then he was taken in by Daniu's mother in Changshan Village.

While talking, Gao Xiuer sobbed again, and Vanilla was also crying beside her.

"Poor girl. Don't worry, I'll be here in the future, I won't make you suffer anymore." Liu Ziqiu had already guessed that there was a secret behind Gao Xiu'er, but he didn't expect her to suffer so much. After a while, he was about to wipe her off. To shed tears, she suddenly froze, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with your face?"

Gao Xiu'er touched her right cheek, and said lightly: "Vanilla, go get some water."

However, Liu Ziqiu had already seen that Gao Xiuer's hands were sticky, and suddenly understood that her face must have been painted with something like oil paint.

Sure enough, after Xiang Cao dried Gao Xiu'er's face with a handkerchief, what Liu Ziqiu presented in front of her was already a peerless beauty with no scars.

Gao Xiu'er looked up at Liu Ziqiu, and suddenly said, "Brother, I lied to you."

Liu Ziqiu understood very well, and said: "The family suffered a sudden change, and you did this to protect yourself, so how can you call it cheating. Brother doesn't blame you."

"Xiangcao, you go out first, I have something to say to you big brother." Gao Xiuer waved her hand, watched Xiangcao leave the room, then turned to Liu Ziqiu and said, "Lang Jun."

Liu Ziqiu was taken aback: "What did you call me?"

"Lang Jun, I am your wife." Gao Xiu'er suddenly lowered her head and murmured, "Tonight, I will be your woman!"
