Chapter 222 Where are the horseshoes going?

Chapter 222 Where to go from here?

"Master?" Yang Hao was stunned at first, and then overjoyed. Yang Hao felt a closeness to this legendary god, a disrespectful but humorous elder from the bottom of his heart, but his joy in seeing him was not fake.

.

Lu Dongbin chuckled, stretched out his body and walked in through the window. He glanced at him and said, "Is it because of a woman that you are sighing?"

Yang Hao nodded, and Lu Dongbin smiled and said: "That's right. Apart from women, what else can't be let go of? In my life as a teacher, I have already broken through the world of mortals, but I can't see through the red powder. My disciple is quite a teacher.

The wind is enough to carry my mantle, I'm so lucky, so lucky."

Yang Hao smiled bitterly and said: "Master, please stop teasing me, you don't know what happened. It's really..., forget it, let's not mention these troubles. By the way, I thought the master was going this time

To visit Senior Fuyaozi, you have to live there for at least a year and a half, why are you back so soon?"

When Lu Dongbin heard this, he changed his expression and said: "It's impossible to come back. Chen Tuan, that old Niubi disciple, is really good at it. She has been studying with Chen Tuan for these days, and the teacher has just watched with cold eyes. The teacher doesn't know what she is capable of, but she is just a master of martial arts."

The progress is really astonishing, and that dog is really a genius in learning martial arts. His martial arts progress is so rapid that the master is terrified to see it.

Don't look at her young age. If this continues, it will only take one year, and you have to let her compete. In another three years, you will not be able to catch up with her. Every day when I see her, I will think that you are too far behind.

He is so miserable and miserable, how can he still stay on Mount Taihua with peace of mind?"

Yang Hao said with great joy: "Does Gou'er have such a talent for learning martial arts? Good! Good! This child is orphaned and widowed. It's pitiful to look at him. In the future, if he has a skill, he will be able to stand out."

Lu Dongbin glanced at him sideways and said angrily: "There is no future. Chen Tuan's apprentice has talent, but my Lu Dongbin's apprentice has no talent? What kind of truth is this? In terms of identity and status, I, Lu Dongbin, am higher than Chen Tuanke."

How many points, should my apprentice let his apprentice compete?"

Yang Hao said with a smile: "This disciple is stupid and has failed my master's high expectations. In fact, my master is knowledgeable in the world, and his poetic talent and martial arts are unparalleled. With the guidance of a famous teacher like you, the disciple will not be far behind, no matter how bad he is. However, learning martial arts is important.

Of course, being talented is one thing, but also speaking of the dog being young and now learning martial arts and building a foundation, I, as an adult, can't compare to him. It's not that my master is inferior to his master.

What's more, no matter what kind of famous teacher he is, no matter what kind of skills he has, there is no way to take advantage of him. The dog lives on Taihua Mountain, does not care about worldly affairs, and concentrates on practicing martial arts. If there is such a thing below him, that is his use.

It is the result of hard work and sweat. I feel ashamed. As the magistrate of Luzhou, I am burdened with many things. After all, my time for practicing martial arts every day is limited. It is natural that I will not be as good as a dog in martial arts in the future.

.”

Lu Dongbin was originally blowing his beard and staring in anger. After hearing this, he pondered for a while, nodded and said: "Well, what you said makes sense. It seems that your master has no intention of winning, but now that he has this idea, he always

We can't stop just like that. Thinking of the many disciples of Chen Tuan, his eldest disciple Wu Meng alone has more than 300 disciples.

Even if you give up your official position and career and follow me into the mountains to concentrate on practicing Taoism and martial arts, you may not be as powerful as his disciples in the future. You have been lazy as a teacher for a lifetime, but no one can compete with me. It’s okay if you don’t accept a disciple. Now

Now that I have accepted you as a disciple, a master cannot ignore me and let his disciples be bullied in the future. Even if I don't know, I will travel all over the world to find a few children with excellent bones and teach you a few junior disciples.

Come and support your appearance."

"Master," Yang Hao said with emotion: "Master taught me his unique skills, and I am deeply grateful. Master is an expert in the world, a carefree person like an immortal. He has always acted freely and freely. Why should he do this for his disciples?"

Thank you for your hard work. If the master wants to recruit more disciples and let the Lu family spread their branches and spread the word to the world, the disciple is very much in favor, but the master does not have to worry so much about the disciples. The disciple and Gou'er have a deep affection, so he must do nothing.

The reason for the enemy, besides, the disciple does not necessarily have to establish a sect in martial arts and become famous throughout the ages, and the disciple's talent and future do not lie here."

"Hey!" Lu Dongbin touched his palms and said, his anger turned into joy: "That's right, that's right, my disciple's talent is not here. If you want Chen Tuan's disciple to be inferior to you, you don't have to rely on martial arts to inherit all my mantle. Look,

I can't count on you here, but since you are my great disciple of Lu Dongbin, who is a drunkard, wealthy and wealthy person, I can't let my master's prestige fall due to my poor skills. I will stay here for another half month, and I will take advantage of this time to make my master famous.

The best secret technique of double cultivation of inner alchemy is taught to you. If you follow what my master teaches you and practice well, your future achievements will not be too bad..."

"What? The method of dual cultivation? Master, isn't he a Taoist? He also knows Fangzhongshu. Master wants to teach me Fangzhongshu? Oops!" Before he could finish his words, Yang Hao got a blast on his head, which made his brain feel like it.

raw pain.

He was really shocked. He didn't know that his master, a monk, actually knew the art of Fangzhong. Just looking at Lu Dongbin's immortal appearance, Yang Hao had long forgotten that Taoism had the method of combining and borrowing to cultivate. Originally, there was such a thing

I'm afraid that a man would want to learn the skills, but Zhe Ziyu had just left angrily, and Yang Hao was full of misery, so he couldn't find the interest. I just heard that the master was going to say goodbye to Fuyaozi,

He went to find a few disciples with good skills and good understanding to teach them a skill and make the sect prosperous. Before leaving, he still wanted to teach his own house technique. Do you want to show off your prestige in front of women? It can be regarded as a waste of his wine, sex and wealth.

The ancestor has become famous? Thinking of this, Yang Hao felt dumbfounded.

Unexpectedly, when Lu Dongbin heard him describe his most proud secret art of dual cultivation as the art of sexual intercourse, he felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and like a pitiful person who clearly said it was harem but was forced to be accused of being a stallion by ignorant juniors.

The writer jumped up and said angrily: "Ignorant and ignorant, who said that the method of dual cultivation is the art of the house? If you say it, it will make the Taoists laugh for no reason!"

What I practice as a teacher is the inner alchemy. What I practice in the inner alchemy is the cultivation of both life and life. What is the nature? The original essence is like a bright spirit. What is the fate? The innate essence is like a dense qi. What is the nature of nature?

The heart and destiny are related to the body. In the practice of inner alchemy, some people cultivate the nature first and then the destiny, and some people cultivate the destiny first and then the technique. They start from different ways and each has their own emphasis. Therefore, there are many schools, and the differences are huge.

. Yin and yang dual cultivation is only one of its branches. Both men and women can achieve the same goal by cultivating together. It is said that different paths lead to the same goal. As for the art of the bedroom, it is just a superficial knowledge of yin and yang cultivation, which is used for pleasure on the embroidered couch in the boudoir.

It's just a little bit of heretical kung fu, how can it be compared with Yin and Yang dual cultivation?"

When Yang Hao saw Lord Lu Zu, who was usually as calm as a god, blushing and having a thick neck, he couldn't help but sweat in his heart. He quickly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, what the master said is, call it Fang Zhongshu or Yin and Yang Double Cultivation. Learn it."

From now on, as long as it’s useful.”

Lu Dongbin said seriously: "Fangzhongshu is Fangzhongshu, and yin and yang dual cultivation is yin and yang dual cultivation. How can they be confused with each other? If the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. You are really uneducated and have no skills. You have spent all your time talking about it as a teacher."

There are so many things, but you are still ignorant and ignorant, which is really frustrating..."

Yang Hao quickly followed the good example and changed his words: "Yes, yes, yes, I am ignorant. What the master wants to teach me is Yin and Yang dual cultivation, which is completely different from Fangzhongshu and heretical Kung Fu. Master, don't take the disciple's ignorant words to heart."

Lu Dongbin angrily talked to him for a long time about the difference between the two, such as maiden and baby, golden male and wooden female, random thoughts, heretical dharma... They were all Taoist terminology. It was a pity that after he accepted this great disciple, he only taught Taoism.

He had never learned any martial arts skills and Taoism, so he was completely confused by what they meant. Yang Hao was so confused that he could only nod his head in response in fear.

Lu Dongbin kept talking for half an hour. Seeing the sincerity on the stupid apprentice's face, as if he really understood the difference between the two, he stopped with satisfaction, took the tea cup from his hand, and took a sip of tea.

, resumed his appearance as an expert outside the world, and said slowly: "The dual cultivation of yin and yang is divided into two parts: foundation building and dual cultivation. There are nine major exercises in total. As a teacher, I will teach you the exercises now, and then I will explain them to you in detail.

Explain the unclear points, and then you can practice it by yourself. This technique is easy to get started, and there is no risk of going crazy. You can start with the dual cultivation of yin and yang and practice it for a long time. After you have achieved great success, you can practice dual cultivation of life as a teacher.

I will pass on my supreme knowledge to you."

"Yes, please give me some advice, master."

Lu Dongbin said seriously again: "Disciple, you must remember that water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Although the dual cultivation of yin and yang uses the skills of men and women to strengthen the body and strengthen the soul, and to maintain longevity, you must not rely on it.

Technique: Indulging in female lust. If you indulge in lust, you will destroy your body. I once wrote a poem for my teacher, "Twenty-eight beauties have a body that looks like a crisp, with a sword at their waists to kill the foolish men. Although no heads are seen, secretly it causes the bone marrow to wither."

You must keep it in mind and reflect on yourself all the time.”

Yang Hao exclaimed "Ah", and Lu Dongbin asked curiously: "What?"

Yang Hao didn't know that this poem was written by him, so he exclaimed in surprise. When he saw him, he asked how he dared to say that he had heard this poem before. He quickly raised his thumb and praised repeatedly: "What a poem!

Good poem…”

Lu Dongbin snorted, ignored his poor flattery, and chanted a Shuangxiu song to himself. Yang Hao listened blankly. After Lu Dongbin finished chanting, he turned to look at his face, and couldn't help feeling sad: "It's still Chen Tuan.

That close disciple is good. Although that dog boy is illiterate, he has a photographic memory. Old Chen Tuan said it once, and she remembered it. Looking at you like this, I'm afraid you will never be able to do it. Alas, pen and ink are waiting for you.

…”

Yang Hao was stunned and hurriedly turned around to get his pen and ink. Lu Dongbin looked at his back, twisting his beard and thinking: "What I said today finally relieved the girl Zhe's resentment a little bit, but it's hard for them to get back together."

I can do it with my tongue shining like a lotus flower. Chen Tuan said that there are still many twists and turns between the two of them. Soon they will both go to the southeast, but they don’t know whether it is accurate or not. The road is mysterious and unpredictable, so I don’t have to deal with him.

After all, this is his own destiny, let him solve it himself..."

Kaifeng Mansion! The first mansion under the emperor’s feet!

Kou Zhun, Lu Yijian, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Bao Zheng, Cai Jing, Zong Ze and many other historical celebrities have fought here. The management of the huge Tokyo city with a population of more than one million is concentrated here, including litigation, household registration,

Marriage, land, sacrifices, construction, disaster relief and people's relief, management of imperial examinations, tax collection, price stabilization, and even ritual and music affairs for various celebrations, religious management of the capital, welcoming foreign envoys...

Kaifeng Prefecture produces no less than thousands of documents every day, and a box of brushes used to approve official documents is used every month. The official seal is also used too frequently, and a new seal needs to be replaced every year. Therefore, every day

The governor of Kaifeng, the magistrates and officials, the left and right department clerks, the left and right inspectors, and the six meritorious officials were really busy all day long.

However, the status of Kaifeng Mansion has therefore become extremely lofty. According to the customs of the Tang and Song Dynasties, important government offices were built in the city within the city, which is called "Zicheng" or "Yacheng". Kaifeng Mansion is also called "Nanya".

A very important official residence in the Song Dynasty, with countless officials and subordinates, so the government office covers an area of ​​more than 60 acres and has more than 50 buildings. Except for the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty, there is indeed no other mansion in Kaifeng City that can compare with it.

Compared with it, Kaifeng Government Office is actually like another imperial palace. It is thick and majestic, with brown-red city walls and tall and majestic city gates, all showing its majesty...

There is a bluestone relief screen wall directly in front of the government office. In the center of the screen wall is a fierce and powerful one-horned monster that looks like an ox but is not an ox. Going further, three large Chinese characters are clearly visible above the tall city gate:

"Kaifeng Mansion"! When a large sedan with eight carriages arrived in front of the mansion, it did not stop. It went straight into the heavily guarded gate of the mansion, passed through a corridor of more than 100 meters, and came to a building with a gong for clearing the way on the left and a drum for beating grievances on the right.

Yimen, the sedan went further and arrived at a courtyard at the back. In the middle of the courtyard, there was a huge piece of Puyu with sixteen characters engraved on it: "Your salary is your salary, the people anoint the people. It is easy for the people to be abused, but it is difficult for God to bully them."

”.

Behind Puyu is the main hall of Kaifeng Mansion with double eaves on the top of the mountain. Go around the main hall and go back. When you reach the residence of Master Fu Yin, the sedan falls to the ground. As soon as the sedan curtain is opened, Kaifeng Fu Yin Zhao Guangyi comes out of the sedan with a jade belt.

Su Rong walked out.

"Tell Cheng Yu to come to Qingxin Tower to see me." Zhao Guangyi ordered, and a yamen officer immediately responded loudly and rushed to summon him. Zhao Guangyi calmly walked into the courtyard gate.

There is a couplet on the door of a courtyard in the southwest corner of Kaifeng Mansion. The first couplet is: "The state has established criminal laws and all the people have no distinction between you and me." The second couplet is: "I am in charge of King Fa Jing and I only recognize right and wrong." The lintel in the middle of the door.

Above it are the four characters "Fu Si Xi Prison".

Although this place is only used to temporarily detain suspects and witnesses for interrogation, according to the prison system of the Song Dynasty, suspects cannot be detained here for more than forty days at most.

Let him go. But whoever is caught in a place like this, regardless of whether he is guilty or innocent, will not feel afraid when he sees the severe atmosphere.

An official in his thirties hurriedly came out of the Xisi Prison carrying his robe. This man had a clear face and a murderous look in his eyebrows. He was none other than Kaifeng Prefecture Judge Cheng Yu, Zhao Guangyi's confidant. He walked out the door.

Come, dust off your official robe and walk hurriedly to Qingxin Tower.

Upstairs in Qingxin, Zhao Guangyi, who has a big face and a big ear, and is calm and self-respecting, sat upright, holding a cup in one hand and a cover in the other hand to gently wipe the tea leaves, sip the fragrant tea into his mouth, close his eyes slightly, and savor the aftertaste.

After a while, he swallowed it.

Cheng Yu, who had already rushed upstairs, saw that his eyes were open, so he took a step forward at the right time, bowed his head and saluted: "My lord..."

Zhao Guangyi stared at the tea cup in his hand, lost in thought for a while, and asked: "Is it more than half a year since Yu Xi left Beijing?"

Yu Xi is Cheng Dexuan's cousin. Although his official position is just a yamen, he is the most favored in front of Zhao Guangyi. Cheng Yu hurriedly agreed, looked at his expression, and said cautiously: "Your Excellency, I would like to

Let Yu Xi come back to Beijing?"

Zhao Guangyi shook his head and said: "The officials summoned me to the palace today to discuss matters in the northwest, and they specifically mentioned Yang Hao."

Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was talking about the newly established magistrate of Luling Prefecture in the northwest. Cheng Dexuan always copied a copy of his secret reports and forwarded them to Kaifeng Mansion, and he was responsible for all these confidential documents.

After sorting it out, we naturally understand the ins and outs of this matter. Cheng Dexuan's memorial describes Yang Hao's arbitrary actions in the northwest, attracting people's support, and gaining a wide range of confidants in very detail. All of them are supported by examples. Could it be that the officials finally became wary?

Zhao Guangyi smiled slightly and said: "Yang Hao was originally born under the sect of Cheng Shixiong in Guangyuan, from the Fugu Zhe family. Although he was promoted and promoted by officials, he did not show any gratitude to the emperor for his kindness.

I mean, this person is very ambitious and obviously wants to imitate the three northwest vassals in order to stand on his own. It would be fine if he could really become his own vassal and play a role in dividing the forces in the northwest. But he has a close relationship with the Zhe vassal.

He has also accepted all kinds of assistance from Zhe Fan, and has obviously colluded with Zhe Fan and become a minion of Zhe Fan. If he is allowed to become powerful, it will only strengthen Zhe Fan's strength and make the situation in the northwest more difficult to control."

Cheng Yu said: "Yes, Sir Zhuo Jian, I wonder what the official plan is?"

Zhao Guangyi snorted softly and said: "In my opinion, we should eliminate him as soon as possible while his foundation is not yet stable and he has no strength to fight against the imperial court. Moreover, with his current strength, it is not worth the trouble for the two Yang vassals to turn against the imperial court for him."

Let’s eliminate the disaster!”

He took a sip of tea and continued: "The officials thought that Yang Hao's achievements were shining brightly and the imperial court had just awarded him, but the chaos in Luling had not yet occurred, and Yang Hao's ambition had not been revealed, so it was inconvenient to use the butcher's knife in vain and get the name of injustice.

You can raise him openly and secretly, summon him to the capital, appoint someone else as the prefect of Luzhou, and take over the power of Luling without any bloodshed. If Yang Hao refuses to obey the imperial edict, or shirks and prevaricates, you can send an imperial envoy to swoop in.

Kill him to honor the law of the country."

Cheng Yu's eyes flashed, and he realized: "My lord, you have summoned me, but you want me to inform Yu Xi to do something secretly, forcing the imperial envoy to kill Yang Hao, and get rid of this evil?"

Zhao Guangyi was stunned for a moment, then laughed dumbly and said: "How could it be that what I care about is Luling Prefecture? As long as Yang Hao leaves office, what else can he do? Is it worth drawing a sword for him? By accident, his whereabouts fell into the trap

In the eyes of officials, he is not beautiful. This person is not worth mentioning."

Cheng Yu said with surprise: "Yes, he is humble and stupid, so... Your Excellency took the opportunity to recommend Yu Xi as the successor magistrate?"

Zhao Guangyi shook his head, stood up, walked to the front of the building, leaned on the railing and looked down at the Kaifeng government office, and said: "Isn't that a clear way to install a private person? The officials have a sharp eye and cannot do it. The government recommended Zhang Jizu as the successor.

Prefect."

Cheng Yuqi said: "Zhang Jizu? It's not because of corruption..."

Zhao Guangyi smiled slightly, and Cheng Yu suddenly realized and immediately fell silent.

Zhang Jizu and he were Jinshi in the same field and from the same hometown. Although they had no personal contact, they were still close officials in the court. Zhang Jizu was timid and conservative and had little political achievements. Not long ago, he was impeached by the supervisor for corruption, and he was desperate.

, and even prepared generous gifts and went to his house, hoping that he could introduce him to him, and begged Nanya to protect him.

Cheng Yu didn't accept any money, but he knew that the master was hiring someone, so he didn't refuse him at all. He comforted him with kind words, and told Zhao Guangyi what happened. Zhao Guangyi was also disdainful of Zhang Jizu's character, but he

For some unknown reason, he used his connections to temporarily suppress the case.

Before that, Zhang Jizu had no contact with Nanya. Bribery and seeking refuge were a private act and naturally unknown to the outside world. In the bitter cold and dangerous place of Luling Prefecture, if an official with no guilt and no fault was randomly assigned, who would be willing to go? That is not like exile.

Okay? Now that you are recommending Zhang Jizu, you can explain his corruption to the officials without leaving any hidden dangers for yourself. At the same time, through this important event, you can gently remove his guilt and let him atone for his sins.

Shepherd guarding Luling.

This person is grateful for the kindness of Nanya, so he can only serve under his sect from now on. Furthermore, this person has no courage or ability. Once he takes charge of Luling, he can only rely on Cheng Dexuan. Moreover, this person only studies literature but does not know martial arts. At that time, your Excellency, even if

Not to mention, the officials will also think that Cheng Dexuan is still in Luling, and the official position of Tuan Lian Envoy will inevitably be assigned to Cheng Dexuan. In the northwest, military power is far more important than political power. By then, even Zhang Jizu will not give up and set foot on the ground.

If you follow the adults, Luling will actually be in your hands.

This step ancestor is not your disciple, but now he is needed. If you need to give some advice, it is inconvenient for you to come forward, so the best candidate to pull the strings is naturally none other than yourself. After thinking about this, Cheng Yu also showed his understanding.

Smile: "In two days, it will be my 100th birthday. Zhang Jizu and Beizhi are both from the same hometown, and they are also Jinshi in the same discipline. Of course, he is indispensable for the guests that Beizhi invites to the house for banquets."

Zhao Guangyi smiled again and nodded silently...

"This Tao is very Tao. It is the root of life and the orifice of life and death. It is said to be ugly but its actions are wonderful. Everyone hates it and everyone laughs. The key is to be upside down. Don't be disgusted with filth and don't care about it. If you get it, it will be effective immediately.

Tiantai is a good sign. Mouth to mouth, orifice to orifice. Swallow it into the abdomen and you will know it. New medicinal seedlings are innate signs. Examine the eyebrows and go against the path. Dregs will continue to appear. The other two are wonderful...

"

Yang Hao stood on the hillside, wearing arrow sleeves, facing the rising sun from the east, his eyes slightly closed, his feet slightly apart, his legs slightly bent, his chest drawn and his back lifted, his shoulders and elbows relaxed, his mind concentrated on Baihui, his energy condensed on

Dantian, slowly breathe in and out, and the sunlight from the third eye of your mind continuously flows into the Dantian Qi sea, and then circulates it through the meridians of the whole body according to the method of Qi movement taught by Lu Dongbin.

Regarding the martial arts taught by Lu Dongbin, Yang Hao believed from the beginning that it was truly magical. However, since seeing Lu Dongbin's uncanny ability to appear and disappear, Yang Hao's original understanding of this internal qigong was overturned.

He still didn't know what the magic was. At the beginning of practicing this kung fu, he only felt that his waist was sore and his legs were weak, but he hadn't discovered the magic yet. After half a month, he felt different.

When he closed his eyes and breathed out, he was gradually able to enter the realm of emptiness. Originally, it was absolutely impossible to hold his breath for 60 seconds, but now he could hold his breath calmly for at least two minutes. His lower Dantian, two kidneys and Yueyin reservoir began to heat up, and he died.

The major acupoints such as Men, Baihui, and Tianmu will beat spontaneously. When the mind is introverted, you will feel lightning flashing in front of your eyes and thunder in your ears. Only then will you know that this skill is indeed very miraculous.

This skill gathers the Qi of the Sun in the morning and the Qi of the Taiyin in the evening. He practices it for half an hour each morning and evening. It does not affect his daily actions. Now he has only practiced the first move, and he will soon be able to practice the second move to make up for his shortcomings.

, there are also various foundation-building techniques such as Huilong, Cynomorium, Phantom, etc., which can only be practiced after the foundation of the previous technique has been established. As for the foundation-building technique, it is time to enter the realm of dual cultivation. At that time, it is necessary to

He practiced with women in the room, gathered medicine and returned it to the furnace, and restored the yin and yang. Now he didn't have a woman, so he didn't care about it. Yang Hao only felt that after gradually getting started with this skill, he felt refreshed and energetic every day.

It’s not easy to get tired. Bento is just an ordinary Qigong and it’s good, so practice it diligently.

Yang Hao was practicing Tuna Kung Fu, while Cheng Dexuan was practicing swordsmanship on a grassy slope not far away. The grass had withered and the ground was covered with silver frost. Cheng Dexuan was dressed in a black suit and was rolling around on the slope. His steps were vigorous and the sword in his hand was shining coldly.

Flashing, the sword wind rustled, and everything within a two-foot radius was enveloped by the power of his sword.

The two of them were moving and still, just like Xuanwu. The Xuanshi was as solid as a mountain, and the martial artist was like lightning and lightning. In comparison, Cheng Dexuan's kung fu was more impressive. The few servants they brought with them stood far away, watching Cheng Dexuan.

While practicing martial arts, he didn't even notice that Bi Su had climbed up the mountain and was in front of Yang Hao.

Yang Hao now has six senses and has sensed someone approaching. He slowly exhaled a breath, stopped and stood still, opened his eyes, and saw that Bi Su was approaching. He couldn't help but look happy and said hurriedly: "Bisu, have you ever

Did you get any information about her?"

Bi Su shook his head slightly, and the smile on Yang Hao's face disappeared. Bi Su whispered: "Following your instructions, I went to General Zhe's Mansion for help. He mentioned her name and mentioned that her ninth uncle was in the General's Mansion.

When I was on duty, I asked General Zhe to find her Ninth Uncle and ask her where she lived. Who knows..."

"Who knows what?"

"Unexpectedly, General Zhe made some inquiries and found out that there was such a steward in the mansion. However, this steward has resigned and left. It seems that something difficult happened at home."

Yang Hao frowned and murmured: "What could it be that even her ninth uncle quit his job?"

Bisu said: "In addition to the general's residence and various other courtyards and villages, there are no less than a hundred stewards, large and small. Who knows what happened to this steward's family? I have no choice but to ask the steward who is familiar with me."

The people asked about it and found out where his residence was, but it was a pasture outside Fugu City, so they rushed to check it out."

Even if the Ding family in Bazhou is indeed at least a hundred times smaller than the General Zhe's mansion, the managers, big and small, are also related to each other, and have high and low status. For example, Liu Ming, the kitchen manager, is not qualified to see Mr. Ding at all. If

If something big happens in my family, I can't go to Mr. Ding for help, I can only solve it myself. Looking at the situation now, Zhe Ziyu's ninth uncle is not an important steward in Zhe's family, so I can only solve the problem by myself.

, but cannot borrow the power of General Zhe.

Bisu continued: "That ranch is just to the west of Fugu. The ranch is not big. It is only used to raise and house the mules and horses that were temporarily purchased. They will be shipped away as soon as they are sold. When I got there, I saw that the ranch was still there.

When I opened the store, I asked the people at the ranch, and they said that the owner of the ranch had changed. Girl Zhe's family had sold the ranch and had gone to Kaifeng."

Yang Hao said anxiously: "Didn't you ask them what happened at home?"

Bi Su said: "Of course I asked, but the person who bought the Zhejia Ranch couldn't explain it clearly. It seems that the Zhejia sold horses to the Central Plains and took the green salt with them, and secretly purchased steel on the way back. They were doing it carefully.

, but it was never discovered, but because of a business dispute with a big customer, he was reported to the government, and all the goods and people were detained. The Zhe family had to sell all their property and move to the Central Plains."

Most of the people doing business in the northwest brought high-quality green salt with them in order to make high profits. When they returned from the Central Plains, they purchased the steel that was lacking in the northwest. This was a secret that had not been made public. Contrary to the imagination of later generations, at that time

The concept of people, country, and nation is extremely weak. Most people in the world only think about their families. The Han people in the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun will never wait day and night for the Central Plains people to "liberate" them. The Han people in the northwest region have not yet been included in the rule of the Song Dynasty.

He would never mind harming the interests of the Song Dynasty and doing business with the Hu people in the northwest.

Although this kind of thing is common, it will not be good once it is passed by the official. No wonder someone from the Zhe Ziyu family worked in the Zhe General's Mansion and never asked the Zhe Mansion for help. Even the Zhe family was doing this kind of thing. Once it was used by the Song Dynasty official

If they find out, they have to find a few scapegoats, not to mention that this matter has nothing to do with them. If they can't avoid it, there is no way they can stand up for Ziyu's family.

Yang Hao was very anxious after hearing this, but as an official like him who landed in the air, he had no foundation or connections in the northwest or the Central Plains, so he couldn't help at all. However, this matter is because someone from the Zhe family was caught smuggling.

, the worst case scenario is that the whole family will be ruined, and the person involved will be sentenced to jail, but there will be no danger in rescuing Ziyu. This kind of thing will not lead to "simultaneous sitting", so Yang Hao felt a little relieved. He thought for a moment and said:

"I heard Ziyu said that he was going to Kaifeng Mansion. Is this case committed in Kaifeng?"

Bi Su shook his head: "I don't even know that family, but regardless of whether the crime was committed in Kaifeng or not, if the case is not small, it will eventually end up in Dali Temple. It is right for Miss Zhe to go to Kaifeng."

Yang Hao thought to himself: "I don't know if Bazhou Zhao Jie has any fellow officials in Kaifeng. If I want to ask him for help on this matter, I can only ask him. Since the Zhe family has lost all their money to litigate, the case will not be adjudicated in a hurry. It will only be delayed."

If we come down, we still have a chance. We must find her first, otherwise even if we want to ask Zhao Tongpan to help us, we may not know where to start."

Thinking of this, Yang Hao hurriedly said: "Bisu, for this matter, I have to trouble you to go to Kaifeng Mansion to find out more about the Zhejia case and find out which yamen it is now located in, and then come back through 'Feiyu'

.”

"Okay!" Bi Su nodded and wanted to tell Yang Hao that when he went to Zhe Mansion, General Zhe was slanderous and unfriendly to him. Suddenly he thought that this was probably because of his humble position and General Zhe.

Naturally, he didn't take it seriously, but it wasn't necessarily because he was dissatisfied with Yang Hao. Otherwise, how could he give him clothes, armor and weapons, and send generals to help him train troops? It would be fine not to report such a small report.

This was just a thought in Bi Su's mind. As soon as he said "good", Cheng Dexuan rolled up his clothes and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is really diligent. Are you dealing with official business so early?"

Yang Hao covered his lips and coughed twice, shook his head and said with a smile: "Master Cheng is just laughing, it's not a business matter. I have learned a health-preserving breathing technique from a Taoist priest. After practicing it these days, I feel refreshed."

, my body is healthy, I am very happy in my heart, I don’t want to be impatient to succeed, I have practiced a little too hastily, and I have always felt a little hot and depressed in my heart these days, but the Taoist has traveled around the world again, so I sent people to Fugu to visit him.

A Taoist's junior fellow disciple, Temple Master Bihe, wanted to invite him to come for diagnosis and treatment, but the Temple Master was unwilling to leave, ahem..."

Cheng Dexuan said with concern: "How can you, sir, believe in the kung fu and breathing skills taught by those charlatan sorcerers? Once something goes wrong, it will damage the internal organs. Sir, you must not be careless. It is better to delay medical diagnosis and treatment as early as possible."

"

Yang Hao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Thank you, Lord Chengcheng, for your concern. I think that Taoist priest will not harm me. It should be because I am not practicing well enough, cough, cough, cough..."

Cheng Dexuan hurriedly said: "In this case, sir, you should stop practicing for the next few days. When your breath becomes smoother, or you can ask the Taoist for details, it will not be too late to continue practicing." He chuckled and said: "Master Chunqiu

When you are in your prime, you are in your prime of life, so you are not in a hurry to practice this health-preserving technique."

"What I'm talking about is, ahem... Let's take a look. Fortunately, everything in Luzhou has been sorted out now. Seeing that the cold winter is approaching, there is no special official business to deal with. If there is still something wrong, I will

I just need to go to Fugu to visit the Master of Bihe Temple in person and ask him for diagnosis and treatment. Ah, it’s getting late, I have to go back to change my clothes as director, Master Cheng, please.”

"Master Yang, please." The two of them bowed their hands to each other, and then each walked down the mountain along a mountain path. There was a road directly leading to the back mountain from their residence, and they didn't go down the mountain together.

"Sir, is there really something wrong with your practice of breathing in and out?" Bisu asked with concern as soon as Cheng Dexuan left.

Yang Hao smiled and shook his head: "I'm very good. There's nothing wrong with me. This is just an excuse. In two days, I will explain the affairs in the state capital and leave. I

Now he is the magistrate of Luling Prefecture. Logically speaking, if you serve as an official for one term, you are not allowed to leave the area under your jurisdiction without obeying the imperial edict or asking for orders. Although the mountains in the northwest are high and the emperor is far away, few officials abide by this rule, but this is a good thing.

You still have to do it.”

"Your Excellency, you are leaving Fuzhou, where are you going?"

Yang Hao's eyes flashed, he looked at the mountains in the distance, and said lightly: "Bazhou!"

Where can I go from here? Of course I have to go to Guan Mountain and settle my grudges!
