Water Margin official

Chapter 22 Lu Xiaoyi with fancy arms

Early the next morning, Zhang Zhengdao got up and had breakfast, and then went to visit Zhang Dahu.

I felt relieved when I saw that he was fine after taking medicine, had regained consciousness, and could even eat some food.

He asked his butler, Uncle Zhang, to take good care of it, and then went to see Mr. Yu.

After yesterday's torment, Ms. Yu was also very exhausted and didn't go to bed until very late. At this moment, she hasn't gotten up yet.

In the yard, Zhang Zhengdao looked at Pan Jinlian, who also had not slept well, with two red and swollen eyes, and joked: "How come you can't sleep well without me?"

Pan Jinlian blushed and boldly replied: "I don't know how to do that."

"Dalang, who is Sister Yulian?" Pan Jinlian couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay. I can eat and sleep. The snoring last night was louder than mine." Zhang Zhengdao said with a smile.

Pan Jinlian rolled her eyes at him and retorted: "Da Lang lied to the slave family again. Sister Yulian can sleep without snoring."

Zhang Zhengdao saw that this girl dared to quarrel with him now, so he stretched out his hand and pinched her smooth cheek, and said: "You are so brave, I will deal with you later."

Then, he turned around and left with a big smile.

Seeing that he was about to go out again, Pan Jinlian shouted at his back: "Da Lang, come back early in the evening, the slave family... the slave family... are waiting for you..."

At the end of the sentence, the voice was too weak to be heard. Regardless of whether Zhang Zhengdao heard it clearly or not, he ran back into the house with his cheeks red from embarrassment.

Zhang Zhengdao left the Zhang family, but this time he was riding a horse.

He had just brought out the big white horse that had been carefully raised in the stable. With the help of the horse servant, he got on the horse and practiced in the small yard for a while. After feeling that there was no problem, he rode out of the house.

Sitting upright on the horse, shaking the reins, this tall horse, with its human nature, kicked off its four hooves and trotted forward.

This white horse is said to come from the North and cost Zhang Zhengdao a lot of money. He must have ridden it when he went out.

Since Zhang Zhengdao arrived, he has been kept in the stable and has never been out again.

The horse had been holding back for a long time, and it gradually accelerated, trying to run as fast as it could, which was very painful for Zhang Zhengdao, who was sitting on the horse.

I just felt the wind whistling in my ears, and seeing things on both sides flying back, I actually couldn't control the big white horse underneath me.

All I could do was shout to the crowd on the road ahead: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, the horse is frightened, the horse is frightened."

On the long street, a white horse galloped past. Crowds of people surged and fled in all directions. Everyone hurriedly dodged. The goods on the shelves on both sides of the street were scattered all over the ground, leaving a mess.

Zhang Zhengdao pulled up the reins eagerly, hoping to stop the white horse. However, the white horse had been locked up for several days and had not run. Now that it was free, it would not stop easily.

One person and one horse caused chaos in Zishi Street in Qinghe County.

Seeing that they have arrived at the Lion Tower, the horse still does not stop, neighs, and continues to rush forward.

Zhang Zhengdao shouted: "Stop, pass, pass..."

The horse was still running wildly and crossed the Lion Tower.

Zhang Zhengdao yelled: "If you don't stop, I will kill you."

The horse still kept running, running happily.

After running another ten or twenty feet, a figure suddenly rushed forward. He seemed to be exerting force under his legs. He ran a few steps with both feet and caught up with the white horse. Then he jumped, grabbed the reins of the horse, and stopped.

Step forward tightly behind you.

The horse was suddenly pulled by this huge force, and stood on its hind hooves. It raised its front hooves high, stood up, neighed, and then stepped down hard, hitting the long street with both hoofs, breathing heavily.

The breath keeps snoring.

"Master, Master, are you okay?" Zhang Liu's familiar voice sounded.

Zhang Zhengdao looked sideways and saw Zhang Liu trotting in front of him, holding the horse's reins with both hands, and asked anxiously.

After turning over and dismounting, Zhang Zhengdao felt that his legs were shaking a little, and he was obviously very frightened.

"What a good horse. I've heard that the official's family has a fine Northland horse. When I saw it today, it turned out to be really good." A big man pulled the white horse, stroked the horse's temples, and exclaimed repeatedly.

After calming down, Zhang Zhengdao saluted him with clasped fists and asked, "Thank you so much, brave man, for saving me. May I ask what your name is?"

Zhang Liu interjected: "Official man, you forgot, he is Brother Xiao Yi."

The big man let go of his white horse and returned the greeting: "High-ranking officials and noble people often forget things. Lu Xiaoyi, who lives in Lijia Goods Store in Xiaqinghe County, is called 'Flower Arms' because of the two splendid arms he has tattooed on his arms."

After finishing speaking, the big man rolled up his sleeves, revealing a bunch of flowers on his arm, which were actually tattooed with bunches of peony embroidery.

Zhang Zhengdao saw that he was tall and tall, like a man dancing with a gun and a stick. He felt happy in his heart and said, "So it's Brother Xiao Yi. Why don't you come to my shop, drink and talk?"

Zhang Liu also laughed and said: "Brother Xiao Yi, I have told you a long time ago that the senior officials in my family value heroes the most. Now that you have switched to a senior official, your wealth will definitely be indispensable."

After listening to Zhang Liu's words, Lu Xiaoyi stopped hesitating and said: "To be honest with you, I have quit working in the store a long time ago. Brother Six told me last night that we are in need of manpower here. This morning, I will

, making a lot of noise and insisting on dragging me to the Lion Building."

"I have my heart set on joining a high-ranking official and getting a job." Lu Xiaoyi finally said bluntly.

Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed. Looking at this strong man, he must have some martial arts skills and can be driven.

"That's great. I was worried about not having enough manpower. With Brother Xiaoyi's help, I became even more powerful. Let's go to my restaurant to talk in detail." Zhang Zhengdao laughed heartily, grabbed Lu Xiaoyi, and walked towards the Lion Tower.

.

Zhang Liu led his white horse and followed behind, saying to himself: "Sir, I have done all the things you asked me to do, and everyone has been arranged to the two houses behind the Lion Tower."
Zhang Zhengdao nodded with satisfaction and responded: "Okay, after noon, I will go and see if you can finally handle an important matter."

Zhang Liu smiled happily after receiving his praise, and continued: "There are still some good men in Qinghe County who want to join the high officials, but I haven't agreed yet."

Zhang Zhengdao couldn't help but look at this loser. He didn't expect that this guy could know his intentions and attract customers for him.

"Zhang Liu, please remember that not everyone can be accepted by this official. I don't want anyone who commits crimes and harms the people." Zhang Zhengdao warned him.

Zhang Liu smiled and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't accept the filial piety from those scoundrels. If the high officials hadn't accepted them, wouldn't he be in trouble?

Zhang Zhengdao accepted Lu Xiaoyi and was very happy. He chatted with him all the way and asked about his abilities.

Lu Xiaoyi answered whatever he asked without hiding anything, which made Zhang Zhengdao even more delighted.

Right now, he really lacks capable manpower and cannot do many things.

The three of them returned to the Lion Building, and Wu Song happened to be there too. The four of them went up to the third floor, got wine and food, and talked while eating.
