The restaurant was full and the gentry with full stomachs remembered their appearance and demeanor, and they all apologized and wanted to go home.
Yang Lin looked at these people. In the past, the characters who stomped their feet would make Hangzhou tremble. Now they are miserable and frightened. They don’t know how many relatives are left in the family.
Thinking again about Cai Jing, whose ancestral grave was dug up, Cai Bian people cannot live without their own power, especially in the coming troubled times.
After supporting General Xu and sending him downstairs, Yang Lin was about to go back when he saw a beautiful woman in military uniform standing in front of him.
The autumn wind in Hangzhou swept through the streets, and people passed by in a hurry on the antique streets.
A girl stood there, wearing a suit of light armor, with a smile that looked like the whole of Jiangnan.
Yang Lin walked forward gently and smiled brightly: "This little lady is so handsome. Can I take you on a tour of the West Lake?"
The heroic Xu Yuenu put her hands behind her back, raised her toes, pursed her lips, raised her chin and said, "Then I want to take the best Yunjin Fragrance Boat."——
Muzhou City, Qingxi County, Xin Xingzong who chased Muzhou, completely lost trace of Fang La.
Along the way, countless loyal believers risked their lives to turn back and delay time.
Xin Xingzong's cavalry killed an unknown number of red scarf soldiers, but they also delayed enough time and even divided their forces to recapture Muzhou City.
Relying on the time that the believers had bought with their lives, Fang La and others fled back to their old nest in Qingxi Mountain and completely disappeared.
Han Wu beat the tree in annoyance and complained: "There are some small towns along the way that are very easy to harvest. If you capture Fang La, you can defeat a hundred small towns."
Xin Xingzong also felt a little regretful, but when his subordinates said it in public, his face suddenly lost its composure, and he cursed: "Pohan Wu, don't you fart around here. These states and counties are also the cities of the Song Dynasty, and they are also the people of the Song Dynasty."
, it will be a great merit for you and me to suffer less sin for one day."
Others dismounted one after another and sat on the stones by the roadside, wiping the blood on their weapons.
Han Wu lowered his head, still cursing and complaining.
Xin Xingzong sighed and cursed: "I don't believe that Fang La grew wings and flew into the sky, but also grew claws and burrowed into the rocks. He must be in this area. He can't run far. Search for me!"
The three thousand cavalrymen, who were originally small in number, were divided into ten squads and searched for the thief in the endless mountains of Muzhou.
At this time, not far from them, in a cave, Fang Qifu smiled and said to Yang Tianning: "Little benefactor, seeing that you are like this, you are also suffering from misfortune at home. Instead of wandering outside, why not stay here with me and live a happy life."
Yang Tianning stared, as if he didn't understand anything and was frightened, but secretly thinking in his heart, this should be the gangster's lair, how should I pass the news to my adoptive father.
Fang La and others escaped death and felt much more comfortable when they returned to their old lair.
Although the palaces in Hangzhou City are gorgeous and luxurious, Fang La never had a good night's sleep sleeping there, and everyone else seemed to have had a big dream.
After nightfall, the red-turbaned soldiers on guard outside walked around vigilantly.
Yang Tianning got up from the bed, and a believer next to him immediately asked: "What are you doing?"
Yang Tianning pointed downwards, as if it was painful to hold in his urine. The believer's face turned slightly bright and he said, "I'll go with you."
Do you think these birdies can't sleep? Yang Tianning secretly complained and followed him to an open space in the cave. After urinating, he went back to bed to rest.
Before coming in, Yang Tianning paid attention to the surrounding environment. This is really a magical place.
There are many large trees that can only be hugged by several people, and their leaves are so dense that when it rains heavily, you can stand under them without getting caught by a single raindrop.
Various caves are secretly hidden in the forest, making it difficult for unfamiliar people to discover them.
At night, the cave was filled with moonlight, and it seemed that there were many exits.
The Manichaean sect's home base was originally here. No wonder they couldn't be eradicated despite several sieges. It was difficult for outsiders to discover this kind of place. Even if they were discovered, they couldn't use large-scale troops. In the end, they could only spend their time here.
Fighting in a place like this with a group of people who are familiar with the terrain is simply a nightmare.
Yang Tianning was thinking hard, trying to get the news out and escape at the same time.
In the woods, Po Han Wu and others were roasting a few unlucky little beasts under a tree. A big man joked: "Po Han Wu, I heard that you were summoned alone by Yang Shaozai this time, but what benefits were granted to you?
When you become rich, don’t forget about us brothers.”
Han Wu grinned: "So that you thieves know that as long as we capture Fang La, I dare not say anything else. No one can take away this credit from us. If you want to prosper together, then find someone."
"——
After receiving the news of the thieves in Kaifeng Mansion and Bianliang City, Zhao Ji and Long Yan were delighted and held a banquet in Gen Yue to enjoy it with all the officials.
During the banquet, a young chamberlain hurried over and said that there were people from the Cai Mansion outside, saying that they had urgent matters to see the Grand Master.
Cai Jing apologized and walked outside Genyue. His old housekeeper's eyes were red and swollen. He saw Cai Jing lying on the ground with a plop: "Master, you are rebelling against Fang La and rebelling against Fang La. Alas!"
"You're telling me?" Cai Jing asked displeasedly, "What's going on?"
"The traitor Fang La dug up my grandfather's grave in Hangzhou and opened the coffin to humiliate him, sir?" After the old man in charge of Cai Mansion finished speaking, he saw Cai Jing swaying and about to fall to the ground.
Yang Lin heard about it at the celebration banquet after the merit tables were sent out, so he quickly sent someone to Bianliang to inform Cai Jing.
It happened that Cai Jing arrived at Genyue. After the old governor of the Cai Mansion learned the news, he did not dare to delay for a moment and went directly to Genyue to look for him.
How could he not know how serious this incident was to his master? He quickly stepped forward to help Cai Jing, pinching her and slapping her in the face, which finally made Cai Jing wake up.
After a while, Cai Jing returned to the banquet. Everyone looked over and saw that the prime minister, Cai Taishi, was distracted and wavered every step of the way.
Zhao Ji quickly asked: "Ai Qing?"
Cai Jing was in the middle and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the thieves dug up my ancestor's grave and insulted my ancestors. I beg your Majesty to make the decision for me."
With a bang, Cai Bian's chopsticks fell to the ground, his eyes were staring straight into his eyes, the blood in his body seemed to have been drained, and his face was as pale as paper.
All the monarchs and ministers in the palace looked at them with sympathy. In any case, these rebels had gone too far.
Zhao Ji comforted him and said, "Now that the matter has come to this, my dear friends also need to express their condolences. Someone, please help your two dear ladies to go home and have a rest."
Early the next morning, in front of Cai Mansion, Cai You was dressed in plain clothes and wiped two tears.
Cai Jing and Cai Bian, the two most powerful brothers now, looked at him and warned: "Repair the tomb well and collect the bones of your ancestors. Your uncle and I will be there soon."
Cai You said respectfully: "Son, I know. You should go back quickly so that you can recuperate and reunite in Hangzhou as soon as possible."
A group of imperial troops escorted Cai You's carriage to Hangzhou.
