When the King of Shu was visiting Qingyang Palace, he became interested in looking at the cellar of Yuanchen Palace. He was almost kidnapped and fainted for a long time before he woke up. Qiu Liang helped him out for a while, and then asked what happened just now. Qiu Liang looked at it
Jia Wu nodded with a sullen face, stepped forward and gave the King of Shu a thumbs up: "My lord, don't blame me. I was just guessing about this, and just in case, I didn't tell our third master." He paused.
He suddenly said, "Our Third Master and Mr. Qiu have set a trap for Taoist Zhenyuan, and even after waiting for these days, he has not shown up. However, this man is very skilled in martial arts, and I am afraid that none of us are his opponents. I guess he can't protect everyone."
I've searched for it once, but I can't find where the Tianqi Pass is - we didn't catch the Tianqi Pass in the first place. I'm thinking, what if I'm really far away? He wants to save his friends, but he can't find them.
So, the only choice is to exchange the important people from the Shu Kingdom. There is no one in the Shu Kingdom who is more important than the prince. Therefore, if the guarantee is not guaranteed, he will plot against the prince. It’s just that the prince is not easy to catch. Coincidentally, the prince is coming to Qingyang Palace.
Pay homage to Sanqing." He pointed to the cellar and said, "This cellar was not well known before. Now that the prince is here, it is inevitable that he would like to come and see the excitement. He is extremely skilled. Who would know if he hid in there unprepared? I'm here.
I negotiated with General Liu, who was leading the army, and wore the armor of a guard and blended in with the guards. Just now, several of our brothers went to the cellar to explore the way, but we were all knocked unconscious by this man. Because I was on guard, I dodged when he punched me.
He dodged, pretending to be unconscious and fell to the ground. When the prince came in, he flew forward to deal with the prince, and I took advantage of him and struck from behind, killing the thief."
Qiu Liang hurriedly said: "Why don't you discuss such an important matter with me?"
Jia Cong also said: "Yes! You didn't tell me either!"
Jia Wudao: "This thief is extremely skilled in martial arts and is good at flying over eaves and walking over walls. Your Excellency and our Third Master were already in charge of this case, so I'm afraid he overheard it. I'm just a bodyguard, and General Liu is also an ordinary general. I don't think he has anything to do with it."
.Shenshu will take care of us."
The king of Shu thought it made sense and nodded: "Yes. Master Jia is brave and resourceful. He is really a strong man."
Jia Cong wiped away his sweat and said, "Uncle Wu, it's too dangerous!"
Jia Wudao: "Leaving this thief at large will be even more dangerous."
The King of Shu and Qiu Liang looked at each other. This Zhenyuan had the late emperor's gold medal in his hand. He was very powerful and elusive, so he was really dangerous. Qiu Liang said hurriedly: "This thief is cunning. I will check the body to see if he is dead."
.”
Naili went back to the cellar with a lantern and touched Zhenyuan's body - there was nothing! Qiu Liang was anxious and checked the old Taoist priest from the beginning, but there was still nothing important. He suddenly
Realizing that this person was actually wearing a pair of boots on a hot day, he stretched out his hands to touch one on each side of the boots - and sure enough, he found a token-like object in his right boot. He took it out and took a lantern to illuminate it: by chance, he got it
What's more, the back side is engraved with the late emperor's cash withdrawal in a bright golden color. Turn it over and look at the front side, "It's like I'm here in person."
Qiu Liang didn't care whether the old Taoist priest's feet smelled bad or not, so he hurriedly stuffed it into his arms, walked out like a normal person, and nodded to the King of Shu. The King of Shu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said a few words to the Taoist priest who was kneeling down, "Thieves"
"Excellent martial arts has nothing to do with you" and other words, let them get up. All the Taoist priests shouted "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not sinning."
Qiu Liang took the Taoist priest aside and quietly showed him the gold medal: "Is this the gold medal from Zhenyuan?" The Taoist priest said, "Exactly." Qiu Liang turned around and whispered back to the King of Shu, who laughed a few times. , led the people away with a bang. General Liu who was leading the troops hurriedly gave Jia Xu a fist in his arms: "When the general returns to duty at the end, I will come and ask to see Jia's escort." Jia Xu nodded slightly.
Jia Cong did not go back to the palace with the King of Shu, but turned back to Yuanchen Palace and stayed for a while. That day, he watched the sunrise in front of this palace. Although Chen Ruijin had no famous words, the matter between them was settled. After thinking about it for a moment, he Asked: "Which Taoist priest is in charge of Yuanchen Hall?" Taoist Shouping hurriedly stepped forward and slapped his head.
Jia Cong said: "I have an idea, does the Taoist think it's feasible?"
Shouping hurriedly said: "Sir, please speak."
Jia Cong looked at the Taoist host and said, "There is quite a big fuss about the cellar now. Rather than letting the people make random guesses, it is better to tell the truth." He then led Shou Ping and the Taoist host inside, pointing to the cellar and saying, "I don't know what's going on here. In what year and month there was a cellar, even the host only knew a little bit about it. I don’t know where he got it from. He was a beauty photographer, and he took pictures of girls from good families. I was afraid that people would look for her in their homes and take her away. Hiding here, he also claimed to be an official agent and pretended to be a Taoist priest, and falsely accused the woman of being a thief and deceiving the Taoist priest. Lord Houqiu found out the truth, rescued the woman and returned it to her family. After hearing about the case, the prince felt deeply in his heart Out of curiosity," he looked at the host and said seriously, "I came here to visit this cellar."
The Taoist host stroked his beard and said, "It was indeed the prince who specifically said that he wanted to visit this cellar just now."
Jia Cong said with a smile: "Taoist master is very knowledgeable! I didn't want him to hide in this cellar because the people helped to search so far away recently! He had nowhere to hide! He bumped into the prince. Not only was he knocked unconscious. We captured five or six soldiers and captured the prince. Thanks to the bravery of General Liu's soldiers, the prince was rescued and captured Zhenyuan. This cellar is on the east side, and a spiritual beast Qinglong is enshrined in it to protect the prince's safety."
The Taoist host said: "Sir, what I said made me think of it. Just now I saw a blue dragon coiling out of the cellar and flying away in the air."
Jia Cong nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Wan Sheng saw it too! I thought I was dazzled, but it turns out you saw it too, Taoist priest. It has a unicorn head, a carp tail, deer-like antlers, and auspicious clouds around it! We all saw it!" The Taoist priests in your temple and the soldiers around the prince have all seen it! Whoever doesn't see it has nothing to do with the blue dragon."
Shouping said: "Pindao didn't see it, Pindao really didn't have a chance."
Jia Cong and the Taoist host looked at each other and smiled. Jia Cong said: "The green dragon is a phantom spirit. The Taoist priest didn't see it, because his eyes were empty. Hey, Taoist priest, how did you become a Taoist priest for such a real person! I'm afraid. It’s not easy to become feathered and ascend.”
Shouping said: "I don't mean to ascend to heaven at all. I just need to eat enough and do some work."
Jia Cong glanced at the Taoist host: "I heard from Mr. Qiu that the stone cover of the cellar was opened by Taoist Shouping alone." The Taoist host moved his eyebrows. Jia Cong looked at Shouping with a smile, "Tsk, tsk, what a big move. !If it’s not easy just to have enough to eat, why not become an escort.”
The Taoist host heard him say Shouping's name. It was obvious that he had asked about it, so he quickly said: "How could he know that?"
Jia Cong clapped his hands and said: "The people I protect have never suffered a loss. That's all. You are free to choose your career and it's a two-way choice. If the Taoist priest doesn't want to be a bodyguard, he can also consider becoming a soldier. The king of Shu is looking for a good soldier." I just think that his strength is rare, and it would be a pity not to put it to use."
The host said: "Although it is useless, it is also harmless."
Jia Cong said: "The sword can kill people, but it can also save people. Taoist priest, there are a lot of evil in the world, and your little Taoist temple cannot protect them. If a person sits at home, disaster will come from the sky. Mr. Ben Parker said to him
The nephew said that with great power comes great responsibility. His nephew became a great hero." He bowed to the host and left.
On the other side, the King of Shu had just returned to the study room of the palace. Qiu Liang hurriedly took out the gold medal and held it in both hands. The King of Shu's eyes were bright, and he happily picked up the gold medal and looked at the sun for a long time. He frowned and said: "Hey... why isn't it big?"
Right?" Qiu Liang had never seen a gold medal before, and his heart skipped a beat. The King of Shu weighed it again, "The weight seems wrong, too." He gave it back to Qiu Liang.
Qiu Liang took it in his hand and weighed it: it was indeed lighter than such a big piece of gold. He looked embarrassed and said: "Your Majesty, this thing must be fake..."
The King of Shu was startled, then took the gold medal and weighed it: "It's really wrong." After weighing it again, he affirmed, "It's fake. Take it and check it out."
Qiu Liang took the gold medal again - by now his enthusiasm had faded and he was sober. He looked at King Shu without laughing or crying and said, "It's really a lie." The monarch and his ministers looked at each other for a long time and burst out laughing.
The King of Shu said, "It's just that Taoist Zhenyuan is not Fang Xiong's accomplice. Why would he arrest Jia Cong's woman with a fake gold medal?"
Qiu Liang said: "To be fair to the prince, I have been thinking about it with Mr. Jia for these days and have not figured it out. Now that I know that the gold medal is fake, will I want to use the woman as a hostage to force Jia Cong to do something?"
The King of Shu thought: "He has been in Qingcheng Mountain for so many years... It's better to check." Qiu Liang responded "Yes".
In the small courtyard not far away, Jia Xu took something out of his arms and put it on the desk with a smile. Four words were engraved on it: I am here in person. He said: "With this thing, everything will be easy to handle."
Liu Feng glanced at Jia Cong: "I'm afraid the third master has been thinking about such an object since he heard about it."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Thanks to Uncle Wu's ability, he made it so quickly."
Jia Xu hummed: "Thankfully your fifth uncle knows what a gold medal looks like! If it were anyone else, he wouldn't be able to do it."
"Yes, yes! Fifth Uncle Shengming!" Jia Cong hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea to please him.
Jia Xu asked, "How are you going to deal with Ding and Ding Wangji?"
"I have two plays to sing. For the first one, I'm looking for someone to write a Pinghua play script."
"No, this is what you said to threaten Ding Wangji." Jia Xu said, "Didn't you just generously tell King Shu that you didn't take it to heart if you were scratched by a cat or dog?"
Jia Cong threw a fried bean into his mouth: "What's wrong with writing a play script? It would be a pity not to write a play script with such good material. Besides, I'm not in Shu." Jia Xu gave him a sideways glance.
Jia Cong then lay down in the room and wrote out the story of the Ding family. The real name, the real place, the real story, even the King of Shu and Prince Yizhong did not shy away from it. He wrote that the fourth child of the King of Shu's family was born from Ding, and pretended to be Shu.
Wang was the son of a deceased concubine, and he had found out the concubine’s surname. Because he didn’t want anyone to harass Yuan Shikai’s house, Mr. Guo didn’t write anything about it. He just added one sentence: Guo Shu hid in another outer room and quietly placed it there.
Among the people, he also avoided the assassination of his lover Ding and his new love, the Sixth Prince. The story leaves a suspense at the end for readers and theatergoers to guess: At that time, the Supreme Emperor was in power, Guo Shu was his confidant, and the home must be tightly guarded. Who is Ding and the King of Shu?
How did he kill Guo Shu? After writing it, he ordered Jia Shi Ma Xing to send it to the capital, and asked Jia Huan to hire people to compile it into a commentary and playbook. It was spread from the capital. As for when it would be spread to Shu, he didn't know.
At dusk, General Liu, who led the troops to protect the King of Shu, came to visit Jia Wu. It turned out that he also practiced fire and spear. Just now he heard gunshots in the cellar outside. Three shots in succession were too fast, so he came to ask Jia Wu for advice. How did Xu load the ammunition? Jia Xu was using a revolver gun that was not planned to be put on the market for the time being. When he heard someone coming in, he switched to a normal fire. He held the gun in his hand, so he smiled and said: " I have two breech-loading guns with me today, belonging to Third Master and Miss Chen."
In recent years, most of the guns sold in Red Bones are muzzle-loading guns. The breech-loading guns have just been launched and are much more expensive. The King of Shu has not bought one yet. Jia Cong then ran to his room to get the breech-loading gun and handed it to him. General Liu said: "This thing is more expensive than a muzzle-loading gun, but the advantage is that you don't have to reload bullets every time. If you are quick, you can fire ten bullets per minute."
General Liu took it and took a closer look. Jia Xu said: "A single fire gun cannot fire so fast. Today I used two fires staggered."
General Liu sighed: "The general is still thinking about how much energy can be saved in fighting if there is a way to reload ammunition very quickly."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "I heard that this breech-loading gun was made by a craftsman from Prussia, a country that has a feud with England."
General Liu's eyes lit up: "In this case, if we use this to fight the British, they will have to reload each shot, and our army can fire them continuously."
"General Liu got to the point!" Jia Xusui said some more about the benefits of breech-loading guns, which aroused the man's interest even more.
Jia Cong took advantage of the situation and invited him to have a drink. Jia Xu was very good at coaxing people, and the uncle and nephew made him very drunk.
The next day, the story of "Green Dragon Protecting the King of Shu" spread on the street. Jia Congte went outside to inquire about it, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the old Taoist priest who made up the story! The story is very real, there is a green dragon The auspicious clouds were filled with golden light, and even Dou Mu Yuanjun and Bao Xiang were dispatched. Not only the Taoist priests from Qingyang Palace saw it, but also the soldiers led by the King of Shu saw it, as well as the neighbors near Qingyang Palace and the vendors selling sugar paintings in front of the archway. , all the beggars who were sitting around waiting for food saw it. It immediately caused a sensation in the whole city. Qingyang Palace then decided to build a green dragon in the cellar and offer incense to thank the dragon for its protection.
Now that the bandit leader Zhenyuan has been taken down, the people are relieved. Because he was taken down by the Qinglong in the Qingyang Palace, the faithful men and women went to worship where the Qinglong appeared one after another, and the good people also went together to watch the excitement, Qingyang Palace It was ten times more lively than before. As for the Taoist host who mistakenly believed in the thief, who cares about him? After all, it was not their girl who was robbed.
Now that Zhenyuan is dead, General Fang, who is pretending to be a porter, has to come to ask for reward money. Jia Cong said: "There are some things you have to do. The Fang family has deep roots in Shu, and I think they have a wide network of contacts." The general hurriedly asked what was going on. Jia Cong took out two portraits and said, "Find two people who look roughly like this. It doesn't have to be a close resemblance, just a rough resemblance."
When General Fang looked at the portrait, he looked at Jia Cong with a half-smile but said, "How cunning! Mr. Jia did it on purpose."
"Of course it is intentional." Jia Cong shrugged, "Isn't this what Green Forest's methods are? General Fang, get used to it. You are also a traitor." (..)
