Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 157 The young master of Linhuyuan
"Look at what you said, do you think it's too little, old brother?" Li Huajing pushed the gift list over again, and then ordered He Zhaoxiong to dismiss the irrelevant personnel, and said, "To be honest, I have not been in the yamen for a long time. The case has been handled, and now he is the commander-in-chief under the command of Uncle Dongping Liu Zeqing. Our uncle is as ambitious as Honghu. Today, he is incompetent, addicted to wine and sex, ignores the government, treacherous ministers exercise power, and the country will not be ruled. Uncle takes the responsibility of the world as his own, and will help The building is about to collapse, and I have heard of my elder brother's reputation, so I am condemned to come here to pay homage to the mountain. This is my uncle's kindness, it is not a respect, please accept it with a smile."

He Zhaoxiong heard the clue, to put it bluntly, Liu Zeqing wanted to rebel against the imperial court, as if he wanted to pull himself into the gang, He Zhaoxiong was stunned, and then declined: "Uncle is too flattering on the old man, the old man was born in the green forest, and his nickname is thief , I took off my shoes and socks today, I don’t know if I will wear them tomorrow, I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint my benefactor and uncle.”

"In this area, who doesn't know about your reputation as an iron-armed dragon? You stomped the land beside Hongze Lake and trembled. Brother, don't refuse any more. Our uncle said that as long as you and the lady bring people over , put forward any conditions, give whatever you want, as long as our uncle can do it, it is not difficult to make great achievements across the world with the skills of the elder brother and the young lady. At that time, high-ranking officials have to do it, horses have to ride, and the name will last forever. , with such a future, isn’t it better than being the owner of a villa for a hundred generations? Why are you hesitating, old brother?”

He Zhaoxiong smiled, "Grandpa, others don't know, you should understand that old people have no ambitions, just pass by, and they are already at this age, how dare they talk about their future, besides, the little girl is just a playboy, it's even more unbearable , can't be done, absolutely can't be done."...

One of the two insisted on inviting each other, while the other refused. In the end, Li Huayu said, "Okay, I'll talk about this later. There is a difficult matter that needs my brother's help. I think my brother will not refuse."

"Please tell me, benefactor."

"The imperial envoy has arrived in Suqian, and he will pass by Luliutan in the near future. Please boldly ask my elder brother to make this annoying imperial envoy disappear immediately." Li Huajing made a killing motion with his hand.

After hearing this, He Zhaoxiong gritted his teeth, "Being full of benefactor's golden face, this matter is left to the old man. I dare not keep more distinguished guests in the humble room. Benefactor, please listen to me!"

"Okay, refreshing. Before everything is done, our uncle still has a big thank you." Li Huajing clasped his fists and did not say much. Regardless of He Zhaoxiong's willingness to accept it, he put down the gift and took the people back to Huai'an to Liu Zeqing. The good news went.

After seeing off Li Huajing, the big butler He Fu said: "My lord, you are at odds with the government by killing blessings and helping the poor. Now our benefactor has rebelled against the foolish king. I sincerely invite you. This is a good time for you to do something big. You Why do you keep pushing?"

He Zhaoxiong shook his head and said: "Hey, I think Engong is a hero. Today, it seems that we are not the same people after all. Although they are going to raise the flag of righteousness, those who hang out with Liu Zeqing should have no good things. We can't be with them, but We have to help with this.”

"The master really knows how to repay his kindness, and his righteousness is so small."

He Zhaoxiong ordered someone to find his daughter. Not long after, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl was led in by a servant girl. Wan Fu said, "Dad, do you really want to help Liu Zeqing?"

"Girl, you know everything?"

He Xuanjiao said: "Jiao'er also just heard from the servants. Dad, I never thought that our benefactor would be with Liu Zeqing, and you would agree to help them. Don't you know who Liu Zeqing is?"

He Zhaoxiong sighed, "Father of course knows that Liu Zeqing is not a person. He deceived the superior and the inferior, robbed the army and robbed the common people. He was vicious and cruel. No one on the Huai River did not scold him when he mentioned it. His teeth grow four feet in hatred, but Li Hua Jing has kindness to us, and he should repay the kindness of others. If Liu Zeqing came to beg, your father would really not give him this face. He has kindness to us, if there is no kindness, what will happen to your father today."

He Xuanjiao straightened his chest and said, "Don't talk about it, Dad. You value love and righteousness. If you don't repay this kindness, you will have to talk about it forever. Now is the time for us to repay the kindness. Isn't it just killing some officials? Leave it to your daughter!"

"Don't underestimate the enemy, it's an imperial envoy."

"What's wrong with the imperial envoy? Could it be that he still has two heads? Wait for my daughter to step on the plates first." After He Xuanjiao finished speaking, she and the maid left He Zhaoxiong's room, went up to the embroidery building for the second time, and then went downstairs, with her hair tied up high, With the jade hairpin on top, wearing a white shirt and holding a folding fan, he has suddenly become a handsome young man with a face as white as jade, and the maid has also changed, becoming a male servant.

One master and one servant hid their sharp blades, bid farewell to the old owner He Zhaoxiong, and came down from Lulin Mountain to Suqian...

Suqian, also known as Suzhou, is a city along the Huaihe River that is second only to Huai'an Prefecture in scale.It has a long history and a rich collection of talents.

Zhu Yousong, Liu Zhaoji, and Li Quan traveled leisurely all the way to the mountains and rivers, and the five hundred accompanying soldiers did not dare to enjoy themselves along the way. They have never seen such a carefree imperial envoy.

When he came to the shore of Hongze Lake, Zhu Yousong was immediately fascinated by the unique scenery here. In the late Ming Dynasty, Hongze Lake, although the state affairs were changing day by day, the scenery of the lake and mountains was particularly charming.Zhu Yousong counted the days, there are still five days left, well, let’s take a tour of Hongze Lake in the next two days, I have never been here before crossing, today is a make up for it.

For the convenience of action, the five hundred soldiers will find a suitable place to set up the camp, and let a chief executive be in charge of the affairs of the camp. Zhu Yousong will take care of the camp with light makeup and only two personal attendants, Liu Zhaoji and Li Quan.

Zhu Yousong and Li Quan were no longer dressed as imperial physicians, and Liu Zhaoji also took off his armor. He was dressed awkwardly if he didn't fight. Liu Zhaoji and Li Quan became two servants.

From viewing the sun in Linhuai River to the boating fishing village, Zhu Yousong thought it was so beautiful. At noon, the three of them entered a restaurant in Suzhou with the signboard "Linhuyuan". Since it was time for dinner, each floor of the three-story restaurant It's all bustling.

Zhu Yousong and the three of them were warmly welcomed to the second floor near the window by Xiao Er, who was wearing a melon skin cap and a white sweat towel on his shoulders. The three sat down, and Xiao Er wiped the table and asked the three masters what to order , Zhu Yousong asked Xiaoer to introduce the characteristics, and ordered a table of high-quality banquets full of local flavors.

There is not much time, lobster, shark fin, fried crab, and a large table full of them.

Liu Zhaoji and Li Quan called him young master and waited on him. The three chatted while eating.

At this time, Li Quan lowered his voice and said: "Young master, the young man at the table diagonally opposite is looking straight at us, maybe he saw something..."

Zhu Yousong took a look, and he saw a handsome young man sitting on the opposite table. This young man had a face as white as jade, delicate features, white teeth and red lips. The man gave birth to a woman, which made people think of Pan An and Su Yuzhi. class handsome man.

There is another person sitting next to the young master, who looks younger than the young master, and looks good, but his face is a little darker, and his clothes are rough, it should be a master and a servant.

When Zhu Yousong was watching, the young gentleman glanced at him, and the two eyes met inadvertently. Zhu Yousong immediately felt that this young gentleman was absolutely extraordinary.
