Water Margin official

In order for Wu Song to take care of the "Anping Village" prison camp, Zhang Zhengdao left the viewing hall and found an inn with Lu Xiaoyi to rest in Mengzhou City.

After months of traveling, I am also very tired and dusty.

I slept until noon of the second day.

After eating, Zhang Zhengdao sat by the bed, thinking about things.

When I went out this time, in addition to taking care of Songwu, I also wanted to meet the legendary "Dominatrix" Sun Erniang, but I didn't get to see her. It seems that she has never come here to open a black shop at the moment.

Apart from this matter, Zhang Zhengdao planned to stop by Bianjing City on his way back. He had several things to do one by one.

It was already February of the second year of Zhenghe, and Cai Jing should have been recalled to the capital by Zhao Guan's family. This visit to the prime minister lasted for eight years, and it was also the most stable position for Cai Jing.

Zhang Zhengdao thought about it and felt that the main reason why Zhao Ji recalled Cai Jing was that the official family was short of money.

I remember that when Zhang Zhengdao first came here, he was also worried about money. His family had a small business and lacked funds, not to mention the Zhao Guan family, which had a big business and many women and children.

What Cai Jing is best at is not government affairs, but his ability to collect money from all over the world, and he does his best to solve the money bag problems for Zhao Guan's family.

In the past few years, Zhao Ji has spent a lot of money to repair Genyue in Bianliang City. Although the court had some control, Zhang Shangying and others successively served as prime ministers, but these people were not good at financial management and were not favored by the Zhao family.

In addition, Zheng Yunzhong, Tong Guan and others had already sent envoys to the Liao Kingdom in September last year. They were supposed to congratulate the emperor, but in fact they were ordered to spy on Yanyun's homeland.

By this time, Tong Guan had already known the Han Chinese named Ma Zhi from the Liao Kingdom and got his strategy of "alliance with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty".

Ma Zhi proposed the strategy of "alliance with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty" on the grounds of "the old land of dark clouds, longing for the king's division", which would completely change the national destiny of the Song and Liao countries.

Zhang Zhengdao guessed that Tong Guan, who wanted to be the "King with a different surname", would definitely reveal this matter to the talented Zhao Guanjia after returning to Beijing, and stir up his dream of regaining the old land of Youyun.

.

If you want to conquer Liao, you must use money. When it comes to making money, no one in the court can compare with Cai Jing.

Moreover, Cai Jing also contributed to Xihuang's opening of the border. If he had not supported him hard in the court, how could Tong Guan have "explored more than 3,000 miles of territory, recruited 2,700 leaders, had a household registration of 700,000, and had six people before and after"

The great feat of fighting and beheading more than 10,000 people.

Now that I think about it carefully, the Zhao family cannot live without Cai Jing.

Zhang Zhengdao pondered for a long time, and decided to go to Bianliang City first. First, to see the prosperity of the imperial capital of the Song Dynasty; second, if he could meet Li Shishi, he could write two erotic poems to "hook up".

Feel the service attitude and craftsmanship of this "No. 1 Sister in the World".

After making up his mind, Zhang Zhengdao could no longer sit still and told Lu Xiaoyi to prepare food and clothing for the road, and set off immediately while the weather was good.

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Sir, it's already past noon. How about we rest one more night and leave early tomorrow morning?"

Zhang Zhengdao, however, couldn't wait any longer. It was already February, and Wang Jin had already fled Bianliang City with his old mother. The drama of Water Margin had officially begun, and there was not much time for him to waste.

"Let's go now. Let the store prepare some food to take with you. There is no need to buy clothes. When we get to Bianliang, Tokyo, we will have everything we need." Zhang Zhengdao began to pack the package.

Seeing that he was so eager, Lu Xiaoyi stopped trying to dissuade him. He packed his luggage and called for a waiter. He ordered some roast geese, some steamed buns, a jar of good wine and water, and placed them in the carriage, supporting Zhang.

After boarding the car on the right road, the two left Mengzhou City and rushed to Bianliang City.

After walking for a mile, I walked back to the cross slope of the big tree. At this time, it was gradually sloping to the west. If I had not gone far before dark, I was afraid that I would have to sleep in the wilderness.

Lu Xiaoyi whipped his horse whip and drove the carriage quickly, while Zhang Zhengdao was sitting in the carriage, thinking about things.

However, at this time, the horse suddenly neighed and stopped suddenly. Zhang Zhengdao was sitting in the car and was overturned by the sudden stop. When he was about to get up, he opened the car curtain and cursed: "Lu Xiaoyi,

How did you catch the train?"

Lu Xiaoyi picked up the gun knife beside him, stared at the man standing in the middle of the road not far away, and replied: "I'm afraid you may have encountered a bandit cutting the path."

Zhang Zhengdao was stunned when he heard this, and looked ahead, and he saw a big man standing in the middle of the road.

I saw the man with a green gauze scarf on his head and a white cloth shirt. He was holding a wrist-breaking knife with a thick back and a thin blade in his hand, blocking the way.

Sure enough, we really encountered a thief who cut the path.

Zhang Zhengdao also took out the long gun placed in the car and whispered: "May I ask about the details of that man?"

Lu Xiaoyi then got out of the car with a knife, took two steps forward, and said loudly: "Why is this friend, surnamed Gao, blocking the way?"

The man raised his wrist-breaking sword and laughed loudly when he heard the words: "If you know the truth, I will leave the gold and silver and leave you a whole body."

Zhang Zhengdao frowned. This thief not only robbed wealth, but also killed people. He immediately said to Lu Xiaoyi: "Try his skills. If you are defeated, you can't just abandon the carriage and horse."

During this time, Lu Xiaoyi, under Wu Song's careful guidance along the way, improved a lot in his boxing and kicking skills. After listening to Zhang Zhengdao's instructions, he replied: "Don't worry, sir, let's see what I do."

After saying that, Lu Xiaoyi stepped forward, holding the Gon knife, and went to fight with the thief.

Judging from the appearance of the thief, he was about thirty years old. He was in his prime of health. When he saw Lu Xiaoyi coming to fight with a knife, he was not afraid. He raised his wrist-removing knife, came forward to greet him, and swung the knife.

Cut.

The two of them went back and forth and fought together.

Zhang Zhengdao held the long spear and stood by the carriage to watch the battle, worried about Lu Xiaoyi in his heart.

This time it was really Meng Lang. The two of them had average martial arts skills. If they encountered ordinary thieves, they could handle it. But if they encountered the evil thieves who kill without batting an eye, they might not be able to parry them.

After watching for a while, fortunately, Lu Xiaoyi got Wu Song's guidance and improved his sword skills, and he was able to fight with the thief without falling behind.

Zhang Zhengdao put his mind at ease, held only his spear, and waited quietly.

Seeing that he couldn't capture Lu Xiaoyi, the thief knew that he had met a real hero, so he gave up a weak point, turned around and ran away.

Lu Xiaoyi was eager to kill, so how could he let him escape? He picked up the gun knife and chased after him.

The thief just went into the woods. Lu Xiaoyi wanted to capture him, so he followed him and chased him in.

Zhang Zhengdao shouted: "Brother Xiao Yi, don't chase the poor bandits, don't chase the poor bandits."

But Lu Xiaoyi had already disappeared, and Zhang Zhengdao stomped his feet angrily.

Looking around, what I saw was the big tree that four or five people couldn't hug and was covered with dead vines.

This is the cross slope.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhengdao couldn't help feeling a little panicked. In this barren mountain and wild ridge, there was no village, no shop, not even a human figure. Lu Xiaoyi didn't listen to orders and chased the thief. It was really hard.

Just at this moment, an old man carrying a burden came down from the ridge of Mengzhou Road, took three steps and rested for two steps, coughing non-stop, and came closer.

When the old man saw Zhang Zhengdao holding a spear in the middle of the road, he was not afraid. He just put down his burden, drew a pole, and confronted Zhang Zhengdao.

"Old man, there are thieves cutting the path here. Please pick up the burden and leave here." Zhang Zhengdao saw that the old man refused to leave, so he had to shout.

The old man coughed, put the pole on the ground, and asked: "Ahem... Where is the thief, but you are holding a flower gun, blocking... ahem... my way."

Zhang Zhengdao frowned and said: "Old man, I'm not joking with you. Get out of here quickly. Otherwise, when my companion comes back, the thief will definitely rob others. If you have inconvenient legs and feet, you won't be able to walk very far, and you will lose your life."

The old man asked: "You are a thief, do you have any accomplices?"

"Let me catch you first." The old man muttered to himself, then rushed towards Zhang Zhengdao with a pole in hand.
