Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

In Beizhou City,

In front of the warehouse where money, weapons and other materials are stored,

The British prince Zhang Fangyan, dressed in gorgeous armor, was stationed at the gate. Next to him was General Zheng Jun, Zheng Xiao's brother.

Zheng Jun turned his head and looked at General Gan, who was talking to the lieutenants of the Zhang family and the Zheng family not far from Okura, with a flash of contempt in his eyes.

"Dalang, look at these marks!"

Zhang Fangyan on horseback stroked the arrow hole on the door and said.

Zheng Jun turned around, looked at where Zhang Fangyan was pointing, and said, "Well! The feather arrow was nailed deeply into the door, and it became a leverage point for climbing up."

As he spoke, Zheng Jun pointed to the far side of the gate, where there was a dark pool of blood, and continued: "I heard that Brother Jing and the others carried the thief's head on a long spear, put it on the carriage, and came directly to the big gate. Cangqian."

Zhang Fangyan looked up at Okura's heavy door and chuckled: "These two boys are like newborn calves not afraid of tigers! A dozen or so people dare to attack here."

Zheng Jun smiled: "I came here after capturing the thieves and the king. Otherwise, how could Qianjia, surnamed Du, abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side?"

Zhang Fangyan nodded: "This Du Qianxia helped Brother Jing and the others capture the big warehouse, so as to avoid damage to the military resources inside. It can be regarded as a crime."

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Fangyan said again: "Dalang, if it weren't for Brother Jing and the military resources were burned down, we would be miserable in the future!"

Zheng Jun: "Brother Shi said yes!"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Jun glanced at General Gan who was not far away and said, "I'm looking at you. Doesn't that guy want to give a concubine to the lieutenant under my command?"

Hearing this, Zhang Fangyan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

The Gan family can command an army of tens of thousands, and they also have some background in Bianjing.

But since General Gan married his current wife, he has developed a hobby of giving away beautiful concubines and female musicians.

Moreover, if someone with a good status and a high position is given the dishes, the concubine given to him is the daughter of the Gan family or various relatives of the eldest lady.

Ordinary school captains would give away girls they bought from Yahang brothels.

Zhang Fangyan and Zheng Jun both knew the purpose of doing this, which was nothing more than to win over people's hearts and expand their power.

The effect is not to say how good it is, but it is not without effect. Many lieutenants and colonels have a good impression of General Gan, who is 'caring for his subordinates'.

At this time,

There were officials in the warehouse, accompanied by Jingjing Lieutenant Colonel, who came over.

After bowing in front of Zhang Fangyan and cupping his hands, he said: "General, the inventory of various military supplies in the warehouse has been completed again! The verification is correct, and the details are here!"

Zhang Fangyan nodded, and after the soldiers beside him took over the details, the lieutenant beside the officials said: "Let the men guarding here cheer up, and they will be rewarded afterwards! But, if something goes wrong. "

"I'm a low-ranking person, please come and see me!"

"Um!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Fangyan said to Zheng Jun: "Dalang, Brother Jing and the others should have entered the city by now. Let's go and have a few words with him."

In front of the Yamen of Beizhou Prefecture,

The ground, which had been washed several times with hot and cold water, was now much damper and cleaner.

at the door,

There were many Zhou generals gathered.

Huang Qingyue, Zheng Xiao and Zhendingyi's brother stood together and talked.

Listening to their voices saying, "Yesterday, some thieves took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the city. Brother Jing chased them out."

Xu Zaijing, Gu Tingye and others dismounted and stood aside, chatting with a middle-aged general in his forties who was wearing armor and leading a section of the Guangrui Army to Beizhou.

The middle-aged general said, "Wu Lang, is it true as Er Lang said, your maternal grandfather's surname is Sun and your maternal grandmother's surname is Gu?"

Xu Zaijing nodded repeatedly.

The middle-aged general said with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "The Sifu family's surname is Sun in the genealogy, let me think about it."

As he spoke, he tapped his thumb on the other four fingers.

After a while, Gu Tingye said: "Uncle, have you remembered?"

The middle-aged general ignored Gu Tingye, but his thumb stopped in the middle of his ring finger and said uncertainly: "Wu Lang, is your grandmother a concubine?"

Xu Zaijing smiled and nodded.

"That's right."

Then this middle-aged military general, who was from the Gu family and was quite familiar with the genealogy, began to explain the relationship to Gu Tingye, which made Gu Tingye feel dizzy and nod his head.

At this time,

The sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance,

Zhang Fangyan, Zheng Jun and others rode over.

"Meet the general."

Seeing Zhang Fangyan, everyone at the door bowed and saluted.

"Um!"

Zhang Fangyan dismounted sideways and came to Xu Zaijing and others. He patted Xu Zaijing's shoulders and Gu Tingye's with both hands. He looked at the two of them with joy and said:

"Fifth Lang, Erlang, don't blame me for rushing you! His Majesty is really anxious to see you. The military order in the capital is urging you to return to the capital as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will drink with you all night."

Zhang Fangyan looked back as he spoke, and Zheng Jun, General Gan and others behind him nodded.

"When the twelfth month of school is over, you should set aside time to go to my house for a banquet!" Zhang Fangyan continued.

Xu Zaijing and Gu Tingye smiled and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, let's go while it's still early!"

Zhang Fangyan patted the two people's shoulders again.

On the way out of the city,

He Guan looked around and wondered: "Wu Lang, where are Master Zhao and Lord Gao?"

Xu Zaijing said: "Brother He, they are busy with something, so they won't go back to Bianjing for the time being."

He Guan nodded: "It's time to be more busy, we almost had a big accident!"

Turn around,

It's the first day of December.

Xu Zaijing and others have been on their way back to Beijing for more than a day.

Late noon (after 1 p.m.)

Qizhou,

Imperial City Prisoner,

The prison is dark and cold,

torture chamber

There was winter sunlight shining in from the small window, forming a beam of light.

The light beam also made the dust and steam floating in the prison appear.

Under the light beam,

A man sits on a chair,

His body and face are covered with various scars,

The fingers on the handle of the chair were deformed, and the legs under the chair were hanging weakly.

Under the light, the man grinned, his mouth was full of blood, but there was not a single tooth in it.

"Hehe. No matter how hard Mr. Jia Mansion tried, he would never have thought that the original Prime Minister of Bai Gao Kingdom was actually from the Imperial City Department. Ha! Haha, that's ridiculous!"

"No wonder Bai Gao was killed so quickly! I know your identity, and whatever you say will kill me. So, why did I say that?"

Looking at the man in front of him, Zhaotaifeng standing aside showed no emotion in his eyes and said: "I didn't expect that I could actually meet people I met in Xingqing Mansion in Qizhou. It shows that we have a deep fate. ”

"Tsk!" The man on the chair spat out a mouthful of blood in disdain.

Zhaotaifeng continued: "That's good, you can stop talking a lot of nonsense! I act and speak my mind, you should know it!"

The man raised his eyes and looked at Zhaotai Peak, and nodded: "Xiang Chuihuan, if you say you won't kill, you won't kill. I know that."

Zhaotaifeng: "Yes. As long as you tell me why there are so few spies in the Liushou Mansion and Zhuangfo Terrace near Qizhou, I will give you a happy life and I will let your wife and children go."

The man on the chair looked stunned for a moment, and then said in a panic: "I, I, I said!"

Zhaotaifeng waved his hand and interrupted: "Wait a moment! Listen to me!"

Man: "Huh?"

Zhaotaifeng: "The wife and child I mentioned in my mouth are not from Qizhou City, but the family of three from Xianzhongfang in Xijin Prefecture. By the way, there is also an old lady!"

"Wow!"

On the chair, the man who had been severely tortured struggled violently. Regardless of his injured leg, he stood up and looked at Zhaotaifeng, his eyes fierce as if he wanted to eat him.

Zhaotaifeng's mood remained unchanged, and he said, "Now, can you say it?"

We looked at each other for two breaths,

"Pa"

The man sat slumped on the chair and said, "If you want me to say yes, you first tell me how you knew about this."

Zhaotaifeng shook his head: "You are not qualified to ask this."

The man took a few breaths and said, "We first received a secret order from the Xijin Mansion, asking us to move the pile quickly. Later, we received a secret order to cause chaos in Qizhou, burn down houses and kill people."

"After completing the errand, we were going to retreat to Beiliao, but before leaving, we were asked to ambush a group of people returning to Beijing from Beizhou."

"The secret order said that after the Beizhou incident was defeated, the bad guys would be happy and relaxed when they returned to the capital, and they would be numb and careless, so they ordered us to look for opportunities to ambush them."

Zhaotaifeng's tone remained calm: "How do you know when they left Beizhou?"

"I don't know, we just have to wait along the way." The man said and vomited blood again.

"How to ambush?"

The man looked at Zhaotaifeng in confusion and said: "Of course, if you can poison, you will poison. If you don't have the chance to poison, you will look for an opportunity to ambush him with a powerful crossbow."

"On the way back to the capital, those people who made great contributions to the Zhou Dynasty wouldn't be wearing armor all the way, right?" As he said that, a smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, as if he saw that his conspiracy had succeeded.

"How to find them?" Zhaotaifeng continued to ask.

The man shook his head: "I haven't left Qizhou City, and they have assumed that I have gone to Paradise. How do I know how to find them?"

Zhao Taifeng turned and left the execution room.

Looking at Zhaotaifeng's back, the man turned his eyes, stared suddenly, and shouted: "I know, yes."

Before he finished speaking, the Imperial City officials from the execution room walked up.

After leaving the torture chamber, Zhaotai Feng's pace suddenly accelerated.

After some instructions, several imperial city officials and soldiers rode fast horses in different directions.

Standing in the yard, Zhaotaifeng looked at the sky and said to himself: "If Qizhou can send people, Daming Prefecture and Chanzhou will probably send people too!"

under the sunset,

Beside the official road,

"Whoosh~"

A sharp arrow shot away with lightning,

The rabbit who was running rapidly in the distance was shot through the neck and fell to the ground. After a while, hot blood came out.

After a while,

The rumble of horse hooves sounded, and without stopping in front of Tutu, the knight leaned forward and caught Tutu.

Holding the rabbit ears, Gu Tingye looked happy and shouted with white breath: "Brother Jing, we can have extra food tonight!"

With that said, Gu Tingye pulled out the feather arrow and hung the rabbit next to the pheasant behind the saddle.

Because Xu Zaijing and others have the emperor's will, naturally they cannot return to the capital slowly.

At the same time, they still went home after making great achievements, feeling happy in their hearts.

The direction of travel is from north to south.

Not only was there no headwind that added resistance and chill to everyone, but there was also a tailwind that increased assistance.

The north wind suddenly became better. I wish I could make it even bigger.

Therefore, Xu Zaijing and others unknowingly moved a little faster along the way, and at this time they had arrived near the south of Changyuan County.

Looking at Gu Tingye riding a horse from not far away,

Next to Xu Zaijing, He Guan skillfully put the arrow back into the quiver without any psychological fluctuations. He said calmly and calmly:

"Brother Jing, I think it's better for us to hurry up and go to Bianjing in the evening! Let the chef of Yanglou prepare these wild game for us!"

Xu Zaijing looked at the sky, nodded and said, "Alright!"

At this time,

"Xu~"

Gu Tingye rode back to the official road: "What are you two talking about?"

While He Guan was repeating what he had just said, Xu Zaijing looked at the three small donkeys with thick black hair and carrying pack saddles approaching from a distance.

Qingyun, who was following Xu Zaijing, smiled and said jokingly: "Sir, I didn't expect that we have a lot of fate with those three people. We can actually run into them when we return to the capital. I just wonder if they will ask us for a drink!"

Xu Zaijing smiled and nodded, with some doubts in his eyes, and said: "Qingyun, why are they heading towards Changyuan County at this hour?"

Qingyun frowned and nodded: "Yes! Let's ask them when we get closer."

While talking,

Qingyun said again: "Eh? Master, do they recognize us? They actually had the courage to look up towards us today."

Walking, walking,

Gradually seeing the appearance of the person coming clearly, Xu Zaijing shook his head and said in a self-deprecating tone: "We seem to have recognized the wrong person!"

Qingyun behind him looked at the three men and three donkeys approaching and nodded, saying: "But these donkeys, I think they look the same!"

Gu Tingye smiled and said: "Qingyun, don't all donkeys look the same?"

Everyone around laughed.

Xu Zaijing also smiled and looked away from the saddle on the donkey's back.

Since they were not the people they had met and talked to before, it was not easy for Xu Zaijing and the others to talk to them.

The three people and three donkeys approaching from the opposite direction did not give way as before.

The group of people walked towards each other like this,

When passing by,

Qingyun kept looking sideways at the three men and three donkeys.

When the three people passed by Qingyun,

Qingyun's sight was from the direction of the donkey's butt. When he could clearly see the situation on the other side of the donkey,

Qingyun's eyes suddenly narrowed, and when he turned around to talk to Xu Zaijing, he saw that his young master had already pulled out the arrow in front of the saddle and was resting on the bowstring.

"Brother Jing, what's wrong?" He Guan asked.

Gu Tingye also looked at Xu Zaijing with a puzzled look.

"drive!"

With that said, Xu Zaijing and Qingyun had already turned their horses and ran towards the three people and three donkeys.

Looking at the faces of Xu Zai, Jing Qingyun and others,

He Guan and Gu Tingye looked at each other and followed him.

"Stop!"

Qingyun shouted in a cold voice from behind the three men and three donkeys.

Hearing this, the three people beside the three donkeys stopped quickly and looked at Qingyun behind them in panic.

Xu Zaijing had already ridden down the official road and walked to their side.

"What do you do?"

Qingyun asked.

"Grandpa, a heroic military man, we are from the county town, and we go to the surrounding villages to collect and sell dates."

One of them said with a scared tone and trembling lips.

At this time, Gu Tingye and He Guan also used their horses to block other directions of the three people.

"When you go to sell dates, do you bring a gourd? Is there wine in it? It's too cold in the afternoon!" Qingyun continued to ask.

"Yes, yes! Grandpa, do you want some wine?"

"Throw it over and let me smell it!!"

"Hey, hey! What a good man, grandpa, if you want wine, please don't kill us!"

With that said, the wine gourd was thrown over.

Qingyun pulled out the stopper and sniffed it, then took a look at the knot marks on the gourd and said, "This gourd is pretty good-looking. Where did you buy it?"

"Back at Grandpa Hao's house, among the gourds he planted, there were only a few that looked good, so they were used by villains to hold wine!"

Hearing this,

Xu Zaijing was on the side, smiling and shaking his head: "You really dare to say that!"

"Whoosh!"

"Dah!"

After four or five breaths,

The three donkeys were fine, but the three people beside them were all hit by arrows.

Qingyun squatted next to the man who was lying on the ground just now and said: "When did the good gourd cultivated by Uncle Deng of the Hou Mansion become your family?"

Seeing the confused, shocked and puzzled look in the man's eyes, Qingyun sneered: "Come on, let's talk about it."

Ignoring the screams of the thieves, Xu Zaijing stood beside the donkey, touched the saddle on the donkey's back, and sighed.
