Chapter two hundred and eighty second come to pick up the beauty
When Liu Xiu and his party were driving a carriage to leave the camp, a man on horseback chased them.
The man chased the carriage and asked, "That's General Liu in the carriage!"
Hearing someone calling him, Liu Xiu asked Xuying who was driving the carriage to stop. He raised the curtains and looked out, and saw the man next to the carriage. He was young, about 20 years old. He was gentle and handsome.
Liu Xiu asked: "Who is your Excellency?"
The young man bowed his hands on the horse and saluted, and said: "My Jia Fu, on the order of General Wang, made a special trip to protect General Liu when he came to Wancheng."
Liu Xiu suddenly realized that this person was Jia Fu and Jia Junwen!
He looked at Jia Fu again, walked out of the carriage, bowed his hands to Jia Fu in return, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Jia Jun, disrespectful, disrespectful!"
Liu Xiuyou had heard of Jia Fu's achievements. When he attacked the camp of Cijun in Liangqiu, Jia Fu picked out three reckless generals one at a time. He was unstoppable in the chaos of the army. He entered and exited the camp and was invincible.
The most rare and valuable thing is that Jia Fu was not born as a martial artist, but as a scholar. In this regard, he was very similar to Liu Xiu. They both abandoned literature and joined martial arts, so Liu Xiu had a natural affinity with Jia Fu.
It's just that Jia Fu joined the Green Forest Army for a short period of time. Although he has outstanding military strength and outstanding abilities, his status and status in the Green Forest Army are not high, and Liu Xiu has never seen him. This is the first time for the two of them.
A meeting.
Liu Xiu said with a smile: "General Wang is so polite. He even sent Jia Jun to protect me! This time I really trouble Jia Jun!"
Jia Fu really didn't expect that Liu Xiu would be so polite to him when he was just an insignificant newcomer in the Green Forest Army.
You must know that Liu Xiu is Liu Yan's biological brother. He used to be the second-in-command of the Zhutian Army. Now it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second-in-command of the entire Han Army. There is a huge gap in identity and status between himself and Liu Xiu.
But in Liu Xiu, he didn't feel the slightest arrogance or contempt. He was approachable and gentle as jade.
In fact, Wang Changzai already had high praise for Liu Xiu when he sent him here, but Jia Fu didn't take it too seriously.
He thought that Wang Chang was just saying polite words to save Liu Yan's face. Now after meeting Liu Xiu in person, Jia Fu's impression of Liu Xiu skyrocketed.
Jia Fu cleared his throat and said, "General Liu, you're welcome. This is a subordinate's duty."
Seeing Jia Fu, Liu Xiu suddenly became interested and asked Xu Fei to bring over a horse, and he and Jia Fu rode side by side.
"I heard that Jia Jun studied Shangshu before?"
"Exactly!"
Liu Xiu smiled and said, "It's a coincidence. When I went to Imperial College, I also studied Shangshu." Seeing Jia Fu looking at him in surprise, he blushed, waved his hand and said, "It's just mediocre academics."
Who among the Green Forest Army had ever attended Imperial College? Even Jia Fu studied at a county school and had never attended Imperial College.
Liu Xiu changed the topic and asked: "Why did Jia Jun abandon literature and join martial arts again?"
Jia Fu said sternly: "When a man is alive, he should try his best to bring peace to the country through civility and rule the country through force!"
Liu Xiu touched his palm and praised: "Well said! Jia Jun is a great man!"
Along the way to Wancheng, Liu Xiu rarely rode in carriages. He rode with Jia Fu, Li Tong, Zhu You and others.
They chatted about the current situation and major events. Liu Xiu and Jia Fu also chatted very speculatively. It can be said that they wanted to talk and have a good time, and they seemed to regret meeting each other late.
To make a long story short, after Liu Xiu and others arrived in Wancheng, they went directly to the Li family's house built in the mountains without entering the city.
As soon as the group of them entered the mountain, they heard a whooshing sound and a person jumped out of the woods on the roadside.
Jia Fu, Zhu You and others were all shocked and subconsciously held the sword under their ribs.
After the man jumped down from the tree, he came straight to Liu Xiu.
Jia Fu didn't recognize the person coming and was about to draw his sword. Liu Xiu held his hand and said with a smile: "He is one of our own."
First he glanced at Liu Xiu, and then Jia Fu looked at the person who came. He was young, in his twenties, wearing brown clothes, hiding on the treetops, almost blending into the trunk of the tree.
I saw this man taking two steps in three steps. When he came to Liu Xiu, he knelt down and said, "I have seen my lord!" As he spoke, the young man could not restrain his emotions obviously, and his voice was slightly trembling.
Liu Xiu turned over and dismounted, walked up to the young man, stretched out his hand to support his arm, helped him up from the ground, and said with emotion: "Long Zhun, you have worked hard these days!"
This young man is none other than Long Zhun, a remnant of the Guangqi Hou Mansion.
When Liu Xiu sent Yin Lihua to Wancheng for refuge, he left Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bu behind to take charge of protecting Yin Lihua's safety until today.
"As long as I can make my lord feel at ease, my subordinates won't have to worry about it!"
Hearing this, Liu Xiu felt filled with emotion and patted Long Zhun's arm again.
In fact, he was not familiar with Long Zhun and Long Bo, and the contact time was not long, but he said, Long Zhun, Long Bo stayed in this village on the outskirts of Wancheng for more than half a year, never leaving Yin Lihua. around.
A true man should make a promise, and as long as he identifies his master, he must be absolutely loyal to his master to the end. This has always been the code of conduct of Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo.
This is also related to the fact that they were born into a slave family and were educated by dead soldiers since childhood.
Liu Xiu asked: "How is Lihua living here?"
Long Zhun said seriously: "Everything is fine, life is worry-free, but I can't go out and have to stay in the village all day long. Miss Lihua's life... is not happy."
Long Zhun did not hide anything from Liu Xiu and told the truth.
What he said is also human nature. No matter who it is, they will not be too happy if they are kept in a cage like a canary.
Liu Xiu nodded with emotion and said, "Life in Zhuangzi ends here!"
Hearing this, Long Zhun beamed with joy, cupped his hands and said, "Yes! My lord!" After a moment, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "If Long Yuan and Long Bo know that the lord is coming, they will be extremely happy."
Liu Xiu raised his head and said, "Let's go into the village to talk!"
Long Zhun responded and led the way briskly.
The reason why he stayed at the entrance of the mountain was, firstly, as an eye liner, and secondly, because he was looking forward to Liu Xiu coming!
In the past, the threat from the county government was too great, and the lord did not dare to take Miss Lihua back to Xinye no matter what. But now that the Han army had won a great victory in Huangchunshui, the threat from the county government was no longer there. He thought in his mind that the lord should come too.
As expected, he really expected Liu Xiu to come today! Long Zhun, who usually had a cold expression, today had a rare chance of keeping the corners of his mouth raised, with joy from the inside out on his face.
Entering the village, the servants were all surprised and happy when they saw Liu Xiu and Li Tong. They all came forward and kowtowed.
When Long Yuan and Long Bu heard the news of Liu Xiu's arrival, they ran out in a hurry, shirtless and wearing coats.
On weekdays, Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo had nothing to do in Zhuangzi except practice martial arts, and today was no exception.
Seeing Liu Xiu, Long Yuan and Long Bo hurriedly put on their clothes, walked forward, knelt down and saluted, and said, "My lord!"
Liu Xiu hurriedly stretched out his hand, helped the two of them up, and said: "Uncle Zhong, Long Bu, please get up quickly, no need to be polite!"
After Long Yuan and Long Bu got up, they secretly looked at Liu Xiu.
Before they protected Yin Lihua, Liu Xiu still had some fledgling childishness in him, but now Liu Xiu can no longer find the childishness in him, replaced by maturity and calmness.
They have not followed Liu Xiu for more than half a year, but they have heard about the deeds of the Zhutian Army in Wancheng. Of course, there are also many things about Liu Xiu.
Long Yuan and the other three would sometimes secretly regret that they could not follow their lord and attack the city, but could only stay in this small village on the edge of Wancheng, unable to do anything.
Sometimes they even feel hatred when they see Yin Lihua. If it weren't for this woman, they wouldn't have to hold it in here all day long.
However, out of loyalty to their master, Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bu no matter how dissatisfied they were, they finally gritted their teeth and endured it. At least on the surface, they had always been polite to Yin Lihua.
.
They were secretly sizing up Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu was also sizing them up. He patted Long Yuan first, then patted Long Bu, and said with a smile: "It seems that the three of you have not been idle during this period. You are strong and strong."
A lot!"
Long Bo said hurriedly: "I know very well that I will follow my master and achieve great success in the future, so I naturally dare not slack off at all."
Among the three of them, the one born in the year of Dragon is the most discerning and the most responsive.
Using Liu Xiuqi's words, he first expressed his determination. Of course, he was also afraid that after Yin Lihua returned to Xinye, the Lord would arrange for him to be protected by Yin Lihua.
His little thoughts could not be hidden from Liu Xiu's eyes. When the latter heard his words, instead of being angry, he burst into laughter and said, "Lihua will naturally be protected by the Yin family when she returns to Xinye."
His words gave Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Bo a reassurance, and the joy on their faces became even stronger.
Liu Xiu waved back and introduced Jia Fu, Xu Xiling, Xu Ying, Xu Fei, Xu Ting, Liu Quan and others one by one.
When Xu Ying, Xu Fei, and Xu Ting stayed with Liu Xiu, their agreement with him was that they would leave after his injuries recovered. Now Liu Xiu's injuries have long since recovered, but Xu Ying and the other three have also been
Didn't leave.
The apparent reason was that Liu Xiu refused to let them leave, but the real reason was that the three of them themselves were unwilling to leave.
Seeing everyone greeting each other and chatting together, Liu Xiu called a servant and asked him to lead him to the backyard.
Liu Xiu was already anxious after not seeing Yin Lihua for such a long time. He was walking forward when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that they were Xu Xiling and Liu Quan following him.
Liu Quan was a relative of Liu Xiu. It was normal for him to follow him to the backyard to meet Yin Lihua. Xu Xiling followed him, which was a bit abrupt. However, Liu Xiu didn't say anything more. After taking a look, he continued to move forward quickly.
Go.
The conditions of this Zhuangzi owned by Li Tong's family are excellent. The surrounding environment is beautiful, and the scenery in the Zhuangzi is no less generous. Walking in it is like a fairyland, which is refreshing and refreshing.
But at this time, Liu Xiu had no intention to appreciate the beautiful scenery in Zhuangzi. All he was thinking about now was Yin Lihua.
Obviously, Yin Lihua still didn't know the news of Liu Xiu's arrival. When she entered the backyard, Liu Xiu heard the sound of music.
Liu Xiu paused and signaled to the servants leading the way, including Liu Quan and Xu Xiling, to wait here. He followed the music of the piano and walked into the courtyard where Yin Lihua lived.
