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

Chapter 62 I, Yang Zhi, All My Life I Want To Serve The Country With Loyalty

The light rain fell like a fog, hazy and lingering, falling like strands of silk towards the land of Tokyo.

The scene at the moment was gloomy and bleak, just like Yang Zhi's mood. He was wearing a Fanyang hat with red tassels on it, and a white satin shirt with a collar, and he was walking in the streets of the outer city of Tokyo in a daze.

There are not many people on the street, and the light rain is falling. Occasionally, you can see the silk umbrella smeared with tung oil moving quietly in the rain.

He didn't have an umbrella, not even the cheapest green paper umbrella, and let the light rain pour on his thin clothes, but it soaked through and chilled his heart.

The glory of the ancestors has been swayed to the end, but where can we talk about the difficulties of today's people? Even if we have ten talents and various ambitions, who can we talk to?

The sky was becoming more and more gloomy, Yang Zhi lightly pressed the precious saber at his waist, the city of Tokyo has lifted the ban in the past two days, and the control over weapons has been loosened, although the standard guns and crossbows are still unacceptable, but wearing this is a family heirloom. Is no one to ask.

He walked forward along the street, but he didn't know where he was going. Hua Shigang's boat capsized, should he go back to the front of the hall to punish him?To return, or not to return, this is a difficult problem.

He has been walking the streets of the outer city for a day, but he still has no answer. He walked to the gate of the inner city a few times, and he had already opened his legs, but for some reason they shrank back.

There is no one in the Yang family who is afraid of death. Hua Shigang sank in the Yellow River. Even if the crime was aggravated, he would not die, but he just didn't want to go back and accept the crime.

My mind is muddled, thinking about this life, I grew up listening to the deeds of my ancestors, practicing the martial arts handed down from my family, I also hated my grandparents who committed crimes, and even the collapse of the Yang Family Building in the northwest, but I never complained about the court. His lifelong ambition is to serve the country with all his loyalty!

Rainwater slipped in from his neck, and then flowed out from his cuffs and legs. His steps became heavier, and he began to resent in his heart. He was charged with crimes when his family was unfinished and unestablished. Should he go back to Linzhou to borrow money from his sister-in-law?
He has been away from Linzhou for ten years, and he has no face to see the elders of Hedong!
At the end, he looked up and saw a dilapidated apricot-yellow flag stretched out in the rain curtain in front of him, he couldn't help rolling his throat, touching his bosom, after a slight pause, he still gritted his teeth and walked in.

The wine shop was dimly lit, Yang Zhi found a table to sit, took off Fan Yangli, and placed it upright by the table, but seeing no one came to greet him, he couldn't help but slammed down the table and said: "Wu Na Xiaoer, don't you?" You have to be lazy and don't come to say hello!"

Xiao Er hid in the corner and went to bed early to sleep in the dark. There is no guest in this rainy day, stealing half a day's leisure is the greatest joy.

He suddenly heard the sound of slapping the table, but broke his happiness. Xiao Er was so frightened that he jumped up, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and shouted: "Why are you shouting, I can't see this big living person here, who is it?" If you are lazy at home, don’t make a false accusation.”

Yang Zhi said angrily: "Why do you talk so much, just say hello, don't blame the Sajia for being rude!"

After finishing speaking, he took off the treasured knife from his waist and slammed it on the table. There was a "jingle" sound immediately, and the little girl shrank her neck, but said unforgivingly: "Be objective, don't be angry and intimidating, this is the son of heaven." Under the feet, the capital is important, but where are the guest officials coming from other places? How dare you commit murder!"

Yang Zhi was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke, he took a long breath and said, "Sajia is the envoy in front of the palace, where do you think he is from out of town?"

Xiaoer's expression changed immediately when he heard the words, he hurriedly changed his face, and said politely: "It's just that the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai. Please don't blame the adults. Please ask for instructions if you have any orders. The little ones can do everything." week."

Yang Zhi didn't wait to share his knowledge, he just said: "If you have that fat chicken and fat sheep, let's make two plates, if you have that good wine, let's serve a jar, and eat ten meat buns."

Xiao Er was amazed in his heart, secretly thought that this made adults eat a lot, hurriedly sang "Fat Ye", and turned to prepare.

Yang Zhi felt miserable, but he had no choice but to look outside the door. At this moment, the rain was getting heavier again, and there was no patter, just falling like a bead curtain, rolling up layers of water smoke on the street.

After a while, the fat chicken and fat sheep came up, and there was another can of wine, but the meat and steamed buns had to be steamed, and it took a while. , just want to feel dizzy and hot, and get drunk to relieve a thousand worries.

He drank here, thinking about some sad things in his heart, and mourning the glory of his ancestors. After the five princes Yang Linggong, several generations of generals, until his grandfather made a mistake and was convicted. Since then, the tree has broken and has no roots. Wu Shushu came to Beijing alone to participate in martial arts, but his official career was not smooth, and he was squeezed out everywhere. Now he has turned Hua Shigang, and he is also a bachelor. He has not even passed down a descendant.

Just as he was thinking wildly, two people suddenly slipped in under the rain curtain outside, but they were holding umbrellas and their clothes were not wet.

Xiao Er was no longer drowsy a long time ago, but he recognized him when he saw him, and hurriedly went forward and said, "You two Duan Gong, please come in quickly, why come to drink on a rainy day, and it's not good to catch cold and typhoid."

The two of them were fat and thin. Hearing this, the fat man laughed loudly: "But I have official duties, and I have to urge people to post posters everywhere. It's just that it's raining non-stop. It's raining when the door is closed. Next night, tonight." They can't do anything."

Xiaoer please enter the room, wipe the stool with a rag, invite the two to sit down, and said: "Duan Gong, don't blame the villain for being curious. You just posted a list two days ago, and you want to fight with the Liao Kingdom. How can you do that?" to post?"

The thin man said: "You are also very clever. If you tell me, you can brag a little in front of the guests. If you get everyone's heads and don't talk about it, it will also show that you have good eyes and ears."

Xiao Er laughed and said: "It's all thanks to the two Duan Gongs, otherwise the villain would have known a lot."

The fat man said: "You have to post on the left and right, and it's only delayed because of the rain. You might as well tell you first. This time, the officials are determined to punish Liaogou. A great reward!"

Yang Zhi was already half-drunk after drinking, but there were no other people in the store at the moment, so he listened to what the opposite table said. He also knew about the fight with the Liao people, but Hua Shigang was lost, so he didn't care about it at this moment. Hearing the many rewards, he couldn't help but feel moved and pricked up his ears.

"The officials made a gold, silver and bronze medal, called the Yuwu Card, but this brand has a ranking, and it is specially given to the winner of the fight. It is said that the gold medal has only one side, and it is written to Hengyong..."

The voice on the other side was getting smaller and smaller, Yang Zhi was half drunk again, and he couldn't hear clearly, but when he heard about the brand, it was like a thunderbolt hitting him. He was working in the front office of the palace, how could he not know this? The thing was precious, so he stood up and hurried over, saying: "You two are invited."

Seeing his recklessness, the two of them immediately showed displeasure on their faces, Xiaoer laughed beside him and said, "Mr. Duan, this is the chief envoy in front of the palace."

The two people changed their faces when they heard the words, and after bowing to each other, Yang Zhi asked: "You two, I would like to ask you about the imperial martial arts card just now."

The fat man wondered: "The envoy works in the front office of the palace, how can he not know about this?"

Yang Zhidao: "Urge Hua Shigang to come back, catch up with the rain, and haven't reported to the Taiwei yet."

The fat man nodded and said: "Since that's the case, you might as well ask your lord to know that there are three kinds of imperial martial arts cards. If you can get one of them, you will not only be famous all over the world, but also be valued by the officials, and there are even outstanding ones." , as long as you want, please march into the army and directly confer official positions, but this envoy is not needed."

Yang Zhi was overjoyed when he heard the words, he was like a drowning man, who was dying but caught a dead tree, he said: "Come and share the table, today's food and drink are invited."

The two of them gave way and said, "We are just officials from the Kaifeng government, how dare we make your lord Fei Yin work hard?"

Yang Zhi was not willing to give up, he invited the two of them over, and after another hour or two of good wine and meat, he reluctantly bid farewell.

It was already late at this time, the shop was lit up, Yang Zhi also got up to leave, the second came over and said: "Master Zhishi, please pay for the wine."

Yang Zhi stretched out his hand to touch his bosom, but suddenly he broke out in a cold sweat, not to mention silver taels, even copper coins don't even have half a penny.
