Chivalrous Song Dynasty

The four eyes met, as if sparks of war had been wiped out, Xiao Feng immediately backed down and turned his gaze elsewhere.Of course she didn't want to fight with Wanyan Wulu here, her original intention of entering the Cai Mansion was to meet Cai Jing in order to control the dynamics of diplomatic relations between the Great Song Dynasty Hall at any time.

The reason why Yelu Dashi didn't come with her was because Cai Jing, an important official of the Song Dynasty, couldn't contact him in private, and Yelu Dashi was an open envoy of the Liao Kingdom. Once he appeared in Cai's mansion, Cai Jing would be detained immediately Li Tong foreign hat.

As for this Jurchen woman named Bai Lu, when can't she be killed?Just shoot her a sleeve crossbow secretly, one shot at a time.

As soon as the cheap man confronted each other in such a secret way, Bai Sheng was freed, and began to observe the surrounding environment and listen to the movement around him.

The waiting area of ​​Tianzi No. [-] is the northernmost end of the corridor.On the north side of the promenade, separated by a rockery pool, is a small yard full of green bamboos. Different from other yards on the way, there are eight people with knives standing at the gate of this yard. guard.

Although the pruning bamboo in the yard covered most of the house, Bai Sheng could still hear the voices in the house.

A voice was scolding: "What a bunch of trash! You don't say whether it can be cured, but you can't even see the cause of the disease. How dare you call yourself an imperial doctor?"

Immediately a weak voice sounded: "Cai You, why do you blame them? No matter how good a doctor is, he dare not say that he can cure all diseases. He has been a father for more than seventy years. Maybe his life is approaching? If you die, you will die." Well, it's a pity that I can no longer serve the government, and I will be a burden to the country."

Just listening to the voice, the speaker should be Cai Jing himself, and the one named Cai You should be his son.

Immediately afterwards, five or six imperial physicians came out of the house in the courtyard, each with a sad face, and left from another road under the guidance of the housekeeper. Only then did Bai Sheng know that Cai Jing had been seeking medical treatment before this, no wonder it was None of the guests waiting in the Tianzihao area were summoned.

When I listened intently again, I heard a sharp voice in the room saying: "The grand master must not be so pessimistic. The country and its subjects still depend on you to guide them. How can you speak lightly of a sick death? The imperial doctor in the capital doesn't look down on you. If you are sick, let's set up a list to recruit talents, and I, Tong Guan, don't believe that there is no capable person in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to keep the grand master's noble body safe!"

Just listen to Cai Jingdao: "Secretary Tong has a heart, the officials let you serve as a privy envoy this time, the officials have already known about that matter, right? Privy Tong has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he came to visit the old man in his busy schedule, how can this make the old man feel embarrassed ah!"

Tong Guandao: "Isn't it? Grand Master, you fell ill yesterday, and the officials made an exception and read a few urgent memorials from the Northwest and South, and then they knew everything. I hate that Weizhou Economic Strategy and Plantation Teacher wrote a letter to ask for a fight, and suggested The Kang Mansion is also afraid of the prying eyes of the Demon Sect. No, let me fight Fang La and Xixia, but I don’t know how to separate myself, how can I control the two fronts at the same time? This is really worrying.”

Cai Jing pondered for a while, then slowly said: "Fang La, Xixia, can't Xixia really solve it by increasing the old coins?"

Another voice said: "It can't be done. I raised this proposal to the officials yesterday according to what we discussed, but the officials were furious. They scolded me on the spot and insisted on sending troops to attack."

Cai Jing sighed: "Oh, Taiwei Gao was implicated by this old man, I'm really sorry."

Hearing this, Bai Sheng already knew that the new speaker was Gao Lian.But I heard Gao Qiu say: "Where does the grand master come from? Didn't all of us discuss the method of raising the old coins? How can you, the grand master, bear it alone?"

Cai Jingdao: "Well, it seems that this Xixia will not succeed if it is not fought, then we have to work hard for Tong Shumi. Mr. Liang, what do you think?"

Another strange sharp voice sounded: "Since the Grand Master said to fight, then I have to fight. I, Liang Shicheng, can only ensure that the interior of the palace is not chaotic, but I can't do anything for the battle ahead."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "Since Grand Tutor Liang doesn't raise objections, I would like to ask Grand Tutor for a favor."

Liang Shicheng said: "If you have something to do, just ask the grand master, why should you be so polite."

Cai Jingdao: "Don't you dare? Tong Privy Councilor is certainly capable of establishing a country, but one person cannot be used for two purposes. What I mean is that I beg Tong Privy Councilor to lead the expedition to Xixia, but Fangla in the south of the Yangtze River needs to ask Liang Taifu to borrow someone."

Liang Shicheng said: "The grand master wants to borrow Huang Chang?"

Before Cai Jing could answer, Tong Guan had already praised: "The grand master really has a discerning eye! Although Fang La's demon army is large in number, they are all untrained peasants. To destroy Fang La, all you need is to capture the thief." To capture the king, just kill those masters under him, Huang Chang is the most suitable thing to do this!"

Liang Shicheng hesitated and said, "No way, is Huang Chang's martial arts that powerful?"

Tong Guandao: "The Grand Tutor doesn't know something. I think Huang Shang once competed with Zhou Tong when he was a master of martial arts. The two fought in a tie, which is enough to prove that Huang Chang's martial arts has reached the peak."

A few people beside him echoed:

"Yes, I also heard that Huang Chang's martial arts ranks among the top three in the Song Dynasty, second only to Tong Shumi and Zhou Tong."

"That's right, he can write books on cultivating immortals for the officials, how can martial arts be general? It is most suitable to go to the Demon Sect."

The so-called wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and everyone in the room was praising Huang Chang's power, so Liang Shicheng couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree to borrow someone.

This Huang Chang belongs to the civil servants of Da Nei, and is under the jurisdiction of Liang Shicheng. He usually lives in the political affairs hall of Da Nei, but he has not done copywriting for many years, and he is devoted to practicing martial arts.In recent years, there have been several shots, assisting the palace guards to capture the thief assassin.In the eyes of Ouchi's guards, Huang Chang could already be regarded as the pillar of the palace's defense system, and even the emperor acquiesced to him practicing martial arts in retreat.Because of the existence of Huang Chang and Tong Guan, the imperial city of Song Dynasty became impenetrable, and no one dared to disturb it anymore.

"This matter is settled like this." Cai Jiban fixed the tone, and said: "Gao Taiwei, you allocate 5 horses to Huang Chang and ask him to station in Jiankang Mansion. For official positions, let the officials decide. , I suggest you go to Huangshang to know Jiankang Mansion, and go to you tomorrow morning to convey the old man's meaning to the official."

Gao Qiu agreed immediately.But Cai Jing said: "It's time for lunch, right? Let's stay at home for dinner. The old man is really unable to get up and can't accompany him, so he has to let the dog serve him, but please forgive me."

Tong Guan said politely: "Where is it? Grand Master, although he is taking care of his body, he must not worry about state affairs like today. Grand Master, you are the backbone of Song Dynasty!"

Gao Qiu said: "The taste of the grand master's family banquet is the most delicious in the world. I just wanted to bother you. Gao Qiu thanked the grand master for his kindness!"

Liang Shicheng said: "There are no outsiders here. To be honest, the food at Taishi's house is of higher quality than that of the imperial palace. Liang would rather obey his orders than be respectful."

Afterwards, several people expressed their gratitude and comforted Cai Jing to take care of his health and not to take care of everything and work hard due to illness.Some people praised again and again, saying that the grand master was comparable to Zhuge in the past, and he dedicated himself to the country and the people.I even thanked Cai You, the son Cai Jing appointed to accompany the guest.

After hearing this, Bai Sheng knew that Cai You had already become prime minister.People called Cai Jing Grand Master, and Cai You was Cai Xianggong.Moreover, those who are polite to Cai Xiao are those who are of low status and not popular enough in front of the emperor.

A group of high-ranking officials and ministers walked out of the courtyard, and under Cai You's personal guidance, they went out to the left.It was only then that Bai Sheng realized that whether the co-authors gave presents or not, they were of higher status than those who were waiting to be summoned.People don't take this corridor when they go in and out of Cai Jing's private courtyard.

Focusing on Cai Jing's bedroom again, I heard Cai Jing say: "Zhai Qian, are there any important people who are here to visit? Let them come in a few before lunch. It happens that I don't have an appetite. Since they are here, then Even with a sincere heart, we can't be rude, right?"

A person who had never spoken before replied: "Master, the most important person here is a young woman named Bai Lu, who is the daughter of someone else. She brought you a huge ancient jade horse carving. Appraised as a priceless treasure”

"Huh?" Cai Jing's voice was a little excited, and he said; "As the saying goes, ancient jade is psychic and can ward off disasters and avoid evil spirits. Let this Bailu wait for a while, and go and bring this jade horse to my room. If you like it, I will Let’s meet Bai Lu first. Others can arrange for them to have dinner first. I’ll call a few more in the afternoon.”

Chapter 88 Meet Cai Jing

Sometimes, Bai Sheng had to wonder if he was suffering from some kind of illness, why is his hearing so strong?After many incidents, he no longer thinks that what he hears can be heard by others.

Just like today, the waiting area of ​​Tianzi No. 20 where he is located is only ten meters away from the gate of Cai Jing's private courtyard. In addition to the length of the courtyard under the shade of green bamboo, it is always 20 meters to Cai Jing's bedroom.He doesn't think others have the ability to listen to the conversation in the room [-] meters away from the position where there are voices in all directions.

Could it be that I have become the ear of the wind?I just hope that the wind ear is a special function, and it must not be a disease.But in any case, his good ear has brought him many benefits. He only said that today, at least he knew that the imperial physician could not diagnose Cai Jing's disease, and he also knew the military deployment that Cai Jing and his group had discussed, which made him One of the most interesting things is that Huang Chang is about to go to Jiankang Mansion to take up the post to exterminate the Demon Sect Fang La!

Huang Chang is leaving the palace!This was news that surprised him.How can I meet Huang Chang and put on a close-up?This is a question he must think about immediately.

He really needed to ask Huang Chang the profound meaning of those tadpole scripts, which was related to the question of whether he would use it after he got the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.What if the big summer sparrow also has all kinds of weird magical powers like the gorse splitting axe, causing the owner to suffer from it?

Just thinking about this matter, the man named Zhai Qian came out and gave some instructions to the housekeepers beside the guards outside the courtyard, and the housekeepers took orders and walked away separately, and one of them walked towards Bai Sheng. side.

Bai Sheng heard that Zhai Qian was called Director Zhai.Looking at it like this, Cai Jing really has a big family and a great career, there are dozens of housekeepers alone, and Zhai Qian is the leader of the housekeepers.

The butler who walked towards Bai Sheng stood still at the north end of the corridor and announced, "Miss Bai Lu and her entourage stay behind. Other guests please follow me and go to the food court for dinner."

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion among the guests, and all kinds of discussions converged into a buzz.

The vast majority of them knew that they had no hope of seeing Cai Jing, and they made joyful voices. Who didn't know that Cai Jing's banquet was the first in the universe. Although they couldn't see Cai Jing, they could have a delicious meal. It was a worthwhile trip.

But there are also very few people who are dissatisfied because of the arrangement of the Cai Mansion. Why can she stay here and wait for the summons?The gift we give is not light!This is especially true for Zhao Mingcheng and his wife.

"Silence!" The butler was not happy, this place is so close to the grand master's bedroom, making noise is the most taboo, if it makes the grand master unhappy, the housekeeper will also be in bad luck.

The butler's small sound was very effective, and the commotion people immediately stopped breathing, followed the butler out of the corridor obediently, and headed west.Only Li Qingzhao refused to get up, Zhao Mingcheng didn't know why, and urged: "Since we are asked to eat, let's go first, can't we wait when we are full?"

Li Qing didn't even look at Zhao Mingcheng, and said coldly, "Go and eat, I can't eat, so I'll just wait here."

"Why are you so awkward with me?" Zhao Mingcheng stomped his feet, then turned his head to look at the three Bai Shengs beside him, and found that Bai Sheng didn't look at their couple at all, so he sighed heavily and brushed his robe. Sleeves, followed the flow of passengers, and finally threw three words to Li Qingzhao: "It's up to you!"

Not long after, more than 300 guests left, Li Qingzhao got up, walked up to Bai Sheng and said, "Brother, I know you are about to meet the Grand Master, but I wonder if you would like to bring your sister in?"

Without waiting for Bai Sheng to answer, Wanyan Wulu spoke first: "Sister Qingzhao, it seems that I am the one Grand Master Cai is going to meet, why don't you ask me if I want to, but ask him instead?" She didn't feel bad for Li Qingzhao, so she said It was just a joke.
