Chapter 7 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes?
Ye Man Wai hurried back to the pavilion with a lot of worries. He was afraid that Wu Zhi would annoy the princess and he would be disgusted with any trouble. Although Wu Zhi was a martial artist, his words made some sense. He sounded like a man who was determined to be a man, but he didn't know much etiquette, but he was still a good man. Although he couldn't marry his daughter, he couldn't be too wronged.
When he arrived near the pavilion, Ye Yuanwai couldn't believe his eyes. He rubbed them hard for a few times before he was sure that there was nothing wrong with his eyes.
Next to the pavilion, Wang Yue was tied to the ground, his head was swollen like a pig's head, and there was a black rag stuffed in his mouth, and he was sobbing with tears. In the pavilion, Mu Wu, who was worried about himself, sat there without any harm, and his daughter and the princess and other women were talking very well.
"Princess, this... this is..." Mr. Ye came to the pavilion and asked hurriedly, feeling inexplicable.
Jinlian frowned: "The prince is really unconventional. He suddenly shouted loudly. I dared to order him to take him, and asked my uncle not to see him."
Ye Yuanwai was stunned for a moment and immediately believed it in his heart. Speaking of the virtues of the noble concubine, it was really nothing. As a princess, he was always kind to his servants and even more obedient to himself. If he said that the noble princess would lie, he would not believe that Ye Yuanwai would kill him. He even saw the noble princess mentioning the disgust expression between the prince's eyebrows. The princess had never looked like this before.
Thinking of Wang Yue's stupid look, he suddenly realized that what kind of business genius, Feng Liu's talent! He was afraid that he was a lustful person, and he said that he came to propose marriage as soon as he met Qi Qiao. He had not seen my daughter have beautiful children, but if he saw the princess who were a little better than his daughter, it was obvious that it would be impossible for Wang Yue to do anything. He was afraid that he was young and showed himself too much, which aroused the princess' disgust.
Ye was angry in his heart. He was almost blinded by such a prodigal son. The son-in-law he liked gave him such shame. How could I raise my head in front of the princess in the future and how could I explain to my daughter?
The more I thought about it, the more angry I turned around and came out of the pavilion and came to Wang Yue: "Grandpa, let's give up the competition. I will send someone to send my groom back to Suzhou. Brother Wang's place, I can compile a book and explain it!" As he said that, he looked at Commander Zhou.
Commander Zhou didn't dare to take the initiative. When he turned around, he saw Lord Hu nodding slightly, and then he smiled and said, "So, let's hand the troublemaker to the official! But there are a few words that the commander doesn't speak up, so it's better to stay away from such a young man! He dares to offend even a fairy-like figure, and the princess will not be investigated, but he is afraid that he will cause a big disaster one day and will implicate the official!"
Ye Yuanwai was even more depressed when he heard this. He was in the mall and went from being miscalculated. He was old but was fussed to being taught a lesson by a martial artist like Commander Zhou. He could not refute it. He called his servant with a pale face and ordered Wang Yue to be pulled out, and after washing, he quickly sent him away.
Wang Yue's mouth was blocked so hard that he couldn't say a word, let alone who could believe him? He still hasn't figured out what's going on? Why did he become a troublemaker who disturbed the princess's phoenix!
As the whimpered, Wang Yue was pulled out by his servants. Ye Yuanwai returned to the pavilion and looked at the leisurely Wu Zhi and smiled bitterly. Isn’t this an injustice?
...
On that evening, Wu Zhi was talking about the residence of the noble princess in the backyard of Ye Mansion. The four girls listened silently. Ye’s father had already settled a engagement with the Wang family. Although he did not agree to marry Qi Qiao to Wu Zhi, he was in love with everyone. Therefore, Qi Qiao smiled happily from time to time. The haze of many days has dissipated today, and he is extremely happy in his heart.
Wu Zhi told everyone about his experience in the Western Expedition. The four girls listened with relish. Even Qi Qiao no longer made any mockery. From time to time, they also curiously asked about the lives of the natives in the northwest.
"By the way, A Lingjie's huge head flew into the sky..." Wu Zhi was speaking with relish, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Jinlian and Zhu'er look a little ugly. He couldn't help but curse himself at the pig's head, just talk casually, saying why it was so detailed, and smiled awkwardly: "Anyway, that's it. The Qiang people have no morale in the future battles, and there is nothing to say!"
Jinlian smiled and said, "My husband, Zhu'er talks about you every day these days, and is worried about you all day long..."
Zhu'er's face turned red and she lowered her head and did not speak.
Wu Zhi gently patted Zhu'er's little head, looked at Jinlian's slightly thin face, then glanced at Xuan Jing and Qi Qiao, and said solemnly: "These days are hard for you, but don't worry, I have nine lives! I guarantee that nothing will happen!"
Jinlian smiled gently, Zhu'er nodded desperately, Xuan Jing nodded gently, Qi Qiao rolled her eyes, but did not refute...
...
That night, Zhu'er burst into tears when she served Wu Zhi to wash, which moved Wu Zhi so much. In fact, when he heard the well-behaved Zhu'er loudly refuting the majestic Ye Yuanwai in the garden, Wu Zhi sighed in his heart, "What kind of virtue is that he can do?" He happened to help her and got the wholehearted protection of the little girl. It made him too ashamed. He needs to be kind to her in the future. Let go of her mood, chat with Zhu'er for a long time, and told her many stories. Finally, Zhu'er suddenly remembered something and said, "Master, please rest early." He ran away with a red face.
When Wu Zhi saw the golden lotus with a half-clear silk on the bed, the snow-white skin slightly exposed, the desire that had been suppressed these days suddenly rose up... All night, the princess's pink big bed squeaked constantly, and the soft words on the bed were breathing, and the boundlessness was endless.
...
A few days later, in a very hidden secret room, Wu Zhi silently looked through the thick stack of paper in his hand. This was the news that the guards had found these days. Although many of them were heard from, Wu Zhi also ordered them to report them one by one. There was no wind or wave. Although the rumors cannot be believed, they are worth pondering.
These are all information from Yuexizhuang. According to rumors in the martial arts world, Yuexizhuang is like a tyrant overlord of the south of the Yangtze River. Most of the private goods transactions are occupied by Yuexizhuang. Needless to say, private salt and other things are the most incredible. The most rumor is that Yuexizhuang has a close relationship with the Quanzhou Maritime Warehouse Bureau. It is said that Yuexizhuang smuggled through the Maritime Silk Road, and almost all small countries in South China have traces of Yuexizhuang smuggling fleets. Wu Zhi has been in the Song Dynasty for a long time and has known it for a long time.
At this time, the Song Dynasty was very prosperous. Song was an important maritime trading country in the world at that time. It had trade relations with dozens of countries such as the Indochina Peninsula, the Nanyang Islands, and the Arabian Peninsula. The government successively established maritime departments in major ports, in charge of the entry and exit procedures of the merchants, and imposed taxes and pumped goods. However, I never expected that in this era, some people started to smuggle overseas. I thought that their future opium business would be the first.
According to rumors, Yuexizhuang is strong in the officialdom of Jiangnan, and many officials from all walks of life have close contact with him. Yuexizhuang has a reputation among the turtles of the rivers and lakes. It is known as the Four Great Kings, the Twelve Gods of Jiangnan, and there are many good players. No one dares to stop him. As for the owner of Yuexizhuang, he only knows that this person’s surname is Fang, and he knows nothing else.
After reading these materials, Wu Zhi thought silently, the four great King Kongs... the twelve gods in Jiangnan... Fang... Yuexizhuang? Yuexizhuang? A sudden flash of inspiration in his mind, Yuexi?! La? Fang La?
Fang La! It seems that it is Fang La. Judging from the power of Yuexizhuang, all the wild rivers and lakes in Jiangnan obey orders. If there is peace today, there is nothing wrong. If there is a natural disaster, such as the people who are forced to live in trouble, Fang La climbs up and shouts, probably most of Jiangnan will change their colors! Wu Zhi exclaimed secretly, Fang La is really a hero among people! Unfortunately, eight out of ten people cannot be used by him, so he can only find a way to get rid of it. If he shakes the foundation of the Song Dynasty, he is afraid that the shame of Jingkang will be staged again.
While thinking, he picked up another letter, which was delivered from the fast horses in Wujiazhuang. The letter was written by Lin Chong. The letter said that the military training in Wujiazhuang Township was very effective. During the autumn harvest, the Liao cavalry was defeated three times and received the encouragement letter from Liang Zhongshu, the guards of Daming Prefecture.
Wu Zhi smiled slightly, Lin Chong's writing was plain, but I thought these three battles would definitely be a great victory, otherwise how could it be heard by Liang Zhongshu of Daming Mansion? Thinking of the golden swords and iron horses of Wujiazhuang, he could only observe this in the south. He felt depressed and didn't know when he would go back to Wujiazhuang to fight side by side with Lin Chong and others.
After sighing for a while, then looking down, it was a great spirit. The letter said that Wujiazhuang is now becoming more and more famous, and many northern heroes come to join us. Several of the heroes have excellent martial arts skills, namely "Putian Diao" Li Ying, "Fast Saint" Shi Xiu, "Feilong" Zhang Qing, "Flying Arrow" Li Gun, "Flying Sage" Li Yun, "Blue-Eyed Tiger" Li Yun. Wu Zhi laughed and gradually got an idea in his heart.
...
The lower reaches of the Yangtze River are flat, with lakes scattered, and waterways intertwined like a net, making it a scene of a water town. The estuary is nearly two hundred miles wide, presenting a spectacular scenery connecting the river and the sea.
Late at night, the moon was dark and the wind was high. At a small dock dozens of miles away from the mouth of the river, a team of horses composed of dozens of horses slowly approached. Each horse was covered with a bulging sack on its back. The horse's four hooves were all wrapped in thick cotton cloth. The horse's team was surrounded by nearly a hundred men in black, holding bright weapons in their hands. If the people in the Jianghu saw it, they would definitely know that this was a large private salt horse team. However, although the entire team was huge, there was no noise. Compared with the salt teams of ordinary salt gangs, it seemed very mysterious and solemn.
"Lao Dao" is one of these men in black and a veteran of Yuexizhuang for more than ten years. Although he had never seen the owner of the manor several times, he witnessed Yuexizhuang's head from the unknown small village in the south of the Yangtze River to the present, the wild grass in the south of the Yangtze River is now praised. "Lao Dao" is like all the merchants of Yuexizhuang, and he worships the owner in addition to worshiping the owner. "Lao Dao" believes that under the leadership of the owner, the road in Yuexizhuang will become wider and wider. Sooner or later, the power of Yuexizhuang will enter north of the Yangtze River. What are the most famous forces in the north in Chao Gai, Shandong, Tianhu, Hebei Tianhu, Huaixi Wang Qing, and when the heroes of Yuexizhuang arrive, they will definitely scatter.
Lao Dao looked at Li Tianyou, who was leading the team in front holding a three-stranded steel fork, and felt envious. He was one of the twenty-four salt team leaders promoted by the owner of the manor, and he was also a disciple of Zhao Yi, the "Taibai God" of the twelve gods in Jiangnan under the manor. He was afraid that he would not have much hope to be like someone else's position in his life.
While Lao Dao was feeling, Li Tianyou, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and whistled in his hand. Lao Dao smiled. Is there something wrong? Lao Li was too cautious. Who dared to move the private goods in Yuexi Village, Jiangnan? I haven’t heard of an accident in a team of private goods in two or three years. Lao Dao was thinking about it, but he held the knife tightly in his hand and looked around. In the vast night, there was silence around. The breeze blew gently. Lao Dao smiled and knew it was a false alarm.
"Yuexi Village is indeed well-known, haha, are you very alert!" With a chuckle, a person slowly walked out of the ship that was originally receiving goods at the dock in front of him. It was too dark, and he could only see that the person's clothes seemed to be in purple, with a green face and fangs on his face. There seemed to be two women beside the man in purple, and they were all wearing masks, one yellow and one red, and the ribbons were flying. Like fairy Lingbo, he was following the man in purple.
The man in purple walked slowly, and smiled as he walked, "Who are you the leader of the team?"
Li Tianyou stood up and snorted coldly: "Since my friend knows that this is the goods of Yuexizhuang, he still dares to make bad ideas. It seems that he doesn't take my Yuexizhuang seriously?"
The man in purple looked up and down at Li Tianyou and said, "It's just an errand runner. How come so much nonsense! Leave the goods behind and tell your owner back. He said that the heroes from the north want to establish their authority at Guidi Tree Wharf, but they may have to use Guizhou to attack him!"
Li Tianyou heard the other party’s arrogance and was angry. However, he was a meticulous person and did not fight a battle without any confidence. His master “Taibai God” Zhao Yi was behind, and he still delayed the time and waited for the master to come and then decided. The other party seemed to have controlled the cargo ship. He thought he was not an idle person, but as long as the master arrived, no matter who he was, how could he be his opponent?
"It seems that my friend has made up for the tough guys. He is known as a hero, but he dare not show his true face. It seems that he is just a rat-singing dog thieves!" The men in black behind Li Tianyou didn't know Li Tianyou's thoughts. They have been accustomed to being rampant in Jiangnan in recent years. When they heard the other party's tone, they couldn't see Yuexi Village in their eyes. They were even more arrogant than themselves. They shouted. If it weren't for the strict rules in the village, someone would have rushed forward long ago.
