Kim Sun-hee was a woman with a fierce surname. After being raped by the King of Goryeo, she couldn't bear the humiliation and ran into a wall and died. Pang Yuchun learned the news of her death from Li Bian. She was heartbroken and said angrily: "Foolish king, you and I are at odds with each other!"
Li Bie said: "Brother Pang, although you escaped from the prison, the king will never give up. You will definitely be wanted. You can no longer stay in Goryeo. I will ask Han Daxia to send you to Liaodong and leave tonight."
Pang Yuchun said: "Thank you so much, General!"
Li Bie said: "Master Han, Brother Pang, I'll leave it to you."
Han Yongjun said: "Don't worry, General, I will send Dr. Pang to Liaodong safely." Then he said to Pang Yuchun: "Doctor Pang, let's go."
Pang Yuchun cupped his hands and said: "General, take care!"
Li Yi cupped his fists and said, "Brother Pang, take care!"
When Li Bie told about Pang Yuchun's unjust case, Mou Rongtian was furious and said: "Such a foolish king is really irritating!" Then he asked: "Where can Imperial Physician Pang find a home in Liaodong?"
Li Bie said: "It's in Kaoshan Village, thirty miles north of Anlezhou City."
Mou Rongtian said: "Now that I know the whereabouts of Imperial Physician Pang, I will rush to Anle Prefecture."
Li Bie said: "I will arrange a boat to take you across the sea."
Mou Rongtian said: "Thank you very much, General."
In order to facilitate the search, Mou Rongtian painted a portrait of Pang Yuchun according to Li Bie's description. Li Bie saw it and felt that it was not bad at all, and praised Mou Rongtian's superb painting skills.
This craft was taught by Wen Congjian and Mou Rongtian. Wen Congjian was a master of painting at that time and the painting teacher of Jinyiwei. Mou Rongtian was his most proud disciple.
The rest of the people were still drinking tea in the hall, when Mou Rongtian and Li Bie came back. Mou Rongtian said: "Swallow, Lao Cheng, we will leave in a moment." Then he said to Li Bie: "General, it is not convenient for me to take Xiaolong with you. He is with you for the time being.
Stay here for a few days, and I will send someone to pick him up later."
Li Bie said: "Brother Mou, don't worry, I will take good care of him."
Yan Siqi said: "Brother Mou, I like this kid Xiaolong very much. How about letting him follow me in the future?"
Mou Rongtian waved to little Zheng Zhilong and said: "Little Long."
Little Zheng Zhilong ran over.
Mou Rongtian knelt down and asked little Zheng Zhilong: "Xiaolong, are you willing to follow Uncle Mou to the Central Plains, or do you want to follow your Uncle Yan back to Japan?"
Little Zheng Zhilong thought for a while and said: "I want to learn martial arts from Uncle Mou, but I also want to run a boat race with Uncle Yan. I think boat racing is very interesting."
Mou Rongtian smiled and said: "Ha... Xiaolong, this is not good. You must know that you can't have your cake and eat it too, you can only choose one."
Yan Siqi smiled and said: "Xiaolong, since you like running boats, go back to Japan with your uncle. Uncle knows martial arts and can teach you."
Little Zheng Zhilong said: "Okay, then I will go back to Japan with Uncle Yan. Uncle Mou, you won't be angry with me, right?"
Mou Rongtian smiled and said: "How could it be? Uncle respects your choice."
After a while, Li Wan came in and said to Li Bie: "Brother, the boat is ready."
Mou Rongtian cupped his fists and said, "Brother Yan, everyone, Mou will take his leave. See you later."
Yan Siqi cupped his fists and said, "Brother Mou, please take care. We will see you soon."
When little Zheng Zhilong saw that he was about to be separated from Mou Rongtian, he was very reluctant to say goodbye. He shed tears and cried: "Uncle Mou, goodbye, I will miss you."
Mou Rongtian liked little Zheng Zhilong very much and felt very uncomfortable. He knelt down and wiped the tears of little Zheng Zhilong and said: "Little dragon, don't cry. If a man bleeds but doesn't shed tears, my uncle will miss you too."
Little Zheng Zhilong said: "When I grow up, I will go to the capital to see you."
Mou Rongtian said: "Okay, uncle hopes that you will grow up soon and follow your uncle Yan from now on. Be obedient and don't be naughty."
Little Zheng Zhilong nodded and said, "I will definitely not be naughty. I will listen to Uncle Yan."
In the future, Zheng Zhilong became very great and became the largest pirate on the southeast coast in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. His son was even more amazing, and his son was the famous Zheng Chenggong.
On the pier, Mou Rongtian, Shi Yi and Cheng Da boarded a patrol boat. Mou Rongtian stood on the bow of the ship and clasped his fists at Li Bie and said: "General, please take care, Mou will say goodbye."
Li Yi cupped his fists and said, "Brother Mou, please take care, and have a safe trip."
The patrol boat set sail. Mou Rongtian saw three fat and strong horses on the boat and asked a sailor: "Why are there still horses on the boat?"
The sailor said: "This is what the general prepared for the three of them."
Mou Rongtian smiled and said: "It's rare for a general to be so thoughtful."
Geoje Island is not far from the mainland of Korea. Mou Rongtian and the others arrived at the mainland of Korea that night, and then rode their horses and whips all the way north. On this day, they came to a bifurcated road outside Yangpyeong County. One road went northwest, leading to Hanyang City, and the other
The road goes due north.
Mou Rongtian told Cheng Da: "Old Cheng, when you return to Hanyang City, you must capture Wang Yue and escort him to Beijing."
Cheng Da said: "Don't worry, Lord Qianhu, I will definitely fulfill my mission."
Mou Rongtian and Shi Yi continued their journey northward, leaving Goryeo and entering the territory of the Ming Empire. On this day, they arrived at a mountain village thirty miles north of Anlezhou City.
The two led their horses into the mountain village, and Shi Yi said: "Brother Tim, where does Dr. Pang live?"
Mou Rongtian said: "I don't know either. Let's ask around. If it doesn't work, just look for it from house to house."
Previously, Han Yongjun sent Pang Yuchun to Liaodong, intending to let Pang Yuchun settle in Anlezhou City. Li Bie brought some silver to Han Yongjun, which was enough to buy Pang Yuchun a big house in the city to make his life more comfortable.
But Pang Yuchun disagreed, feeling that there were too many people in the city and it was unsafe, and would rather live in a remote mountain village. Han Yongjun spent money to bribe the government and forged a household registration document for Pang Yuchun. Pang Yuchun changed his surname to Zhao Guanglong, and his ancestral home was Qi, Hubei.
spring.
Pang Yuchun learned Chinese from her adoptive father Pang Xian, who was from Qichun, Hubei. Pang Yuchun's Chinese has a Hubei flavor. He said that his ancestral home was in Qichun, Hubei, which would not easily arouse suspicion from others.
Mou Rongtian saw an old man coming back from collecting firewood. When he came closer, he took out Pang Yuchun's portrait from his arms, showed it to the old man, and asked him if he had seen this person before. The old man's eyes were dazzled and he leaned back.
Only then did he see it clearly and said, "Isn't this Mr. Zhao?"
Mou Rongtian put away the portrait, put it in his arms, and said, "Is this Dr. Zhao you are talking about Zhao Guanglong?"
The old man said to himself: "I know his surname is Zhao, everyone calls him Doctor Zhao, but I don't know what his name is."
Mou Rongtian asked: "Where is his home?"
The old man pointed to the distance and said, "It's right over there."
Mou Rongtian said: "Can you please take us there."
The old man said: "Do you have anything to do with him?"
Mou Rongtian said: "Something happened."
The old man said: "Hey, there's no point in going. I can't find him. He's not at home. I haven't seen him for a long time."
Mou Rongtian felt a chill and said, "We still want to go over and have a look."
The old man said: "You are serious. I told you that you are not at home, but you still have to go, but your trip is in vain. Well, come with me, and I will take you there." He said, leading the way.
Mou Rongtian saw that the old man was eager to help, and felt that he was a good person, and thought to himself: "The people here are really simple and honest." Seeing that the old man was carrying a heavy load of firewood and hunched forward, Mou Rongtian said, "Old man, it is very hard for you to carry firewood. There are horses here, let them carry you."
The old man smiled and said: "Hey, no need, no need, can you still be tired with this little thing?"
They came to a small courtyard. Mou Rongtian saw that the fence was low and the wooden door was dilapidated. The yard was not big. There was only one main room inside, which was also dilapidated and the window paper was in shreds.
The old man said: "This is Mr. Zhao's house."
The courtyard door was unlocked, and the three of them walked in. The door of the house was locked. Mou Rongtian looked in through the hole in the window paper and saw that the house was bare with only four walls. There was no furniture except a fire bed, and a few books scattered on the bed.
I looked carefully and saw several medicinal books. I thought: "This is probably the place where Dr. Pang settled down."
Asked the old man: "Old man, how long has it been since Zhao Guanglong came back?"
The old man thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year."
Mou Rongtian asked again: "Do you know where he went?"
Seeing that Mou Rongtian was asking too much, the old man became suspicious and asked, "What do you two do? Why are you asking about Mr. Zhao?"
Mou Rongtian took out his waist card and said: "We are Jinyiwei."
As soon as the word "Jinyiwei" came out of his mouth, the old man was so frightened that his legs immediately became weak and he knelt on the ground and said, "It turns out to be the officials. The little old man kowtows to the two officials."
Mou Rongtian quickly helped the old man up and said, "Don't be like this."
The old man asked: "Has something happened to Dr. Zhao and is he facing a lawsuit?"
Mou Rongtian said: "Don't ask so much, tell us about Zhao Guanglong."
The old man said: "Mr. Zhao is not a local. He bought this house just over a year ago. He has lived here for about half a year, and then he disappeared."
Mou Rongtian asked: "Where has he gone?"
The old man shook his head and said, "How do I know this? Not only me, but everyone in the village doesn't know."
Mou Rongtian asked: "Why did you call him Doctor Zhao?"
The old man said: "He knows how to heal. The people in the village call him Doctor Zhao, and the little old man also calls him that. When he first came here, we didn't know he could heal. The villagers often went to the old well at the entrance of the village. When chatting about chess, he would come over to watch, and sometimes he would play a few games with us. He was a good chess player, but we couldn't beat him.
"As time went by, everyone in the village became familiar with him. One time, Er Yatou's father caught a cold and was very ill. The family had no money and could not afford to hire a doctor in the town. After Zhao Langzhong found out, he went over to Er Yatou's father. After taking a look, he went up the mountain to collect herbs, boiled them when he came back, and gave them to Er Yatou's father to drink. After drinking them, his illness was cured.
"That's when we found out that he could see doctors. People in the village came to see him if they had headaches or fever. After drinking his medicine, their illnesses were cured. He was very kind and never asked for money. The villagers were willing to get along with him. See you. He has disappeared, and people in the village often talk about him together, and no one knows where he has gone."
Mou Rongtian thought to himself: "Where did Pang Yuchun go? He is wanted across the country in Korea. He will definitely not return to Korea. If he did, he would have been arrested by now. He must still be in the Ming Dynasty."
He smiled and said, "Thank you so much, old man." He said to Shi Yi, "Yanzi, let's go!"
The two of them walked out of the yard and got on their horses. Shi Yi said: "Brother Tim, where are we going?"
Mou Rongtian said: "Go back to the capital."
A few days later, the two returned to the capital. Mou Rongtian went to the General Administration of Jinyi and Wei to find Luo Yangxing, opened the office door and walked in. Seeing that he was back, Luo Yangxing stood up happily and said: "Rongtian, you are finally back. Things
How did it go? Has Pang Yuchun been found?"
Mou Rongtian sighed and said, "Don't mention it."
Luo Yangxing said: "Sit down and talk slowly."
The two sat down, and Mou Rongtian recounted his trip to Korea and Japan one by one. Finally, he mentioned that he had not found Pang Yuchun in Anlezhou and suspected that Pang was still in the Ming Dynasty. He handed Pang's portrait to Luo Yangxing.
Luo Yangxing said: "It's good to be in the Ming Dynasty. Later I will ask them to make hundreds of copies of the portrait and send them to various branches for investigation. We will definitely find him."
Then he said: "You and I go to the old man's place. The old man has an important thing waiting for you to take care of." He got up and walked out.
Mou Rongtian stood up and followed behind: "What's the important matter?"
