Chapter three hundred and seventy fifth sudden change in the early morning
At the fifth update of the next day, it was still dark outside the house. Li Yanqing got up and washed his shoes and prepared to go out for a run. After entering the military camp, he stopped running every morning and started a normal life. However, occasionally he would get up early and breathe the fresh air in the early morning.
"Uncle Zhong, I'm going to run!"
"It's not safe on the road now," Uncle Zhong chased him to the gate and told him again.
"I've brought it!"
Li Yanqing's words came from afar, and he had disappeared into the darkness. Uncle Zhong shook his head and closed the door and went back to the house.
The early morning of winter is particularly cold, but the air is also particularly fresh. Taking a breath seems to penetrate the heart. Li Yanqing ran to Yangcun, twenty miles north, and then turned around and ran back.
He passed through Lushan Town. At this time, a shop in Lushan Town had already opened and began to prepare for a new day's business. Lushan Academy was still dark, and the young students were still sleeping, and no one had gotten up.
Li Yanqing remembered that Yao Wannian planned to ask him to teach the students a lesson. He couldn't think of what to say for a moment. Now he thought about the question of getting up in the morning. If you stay in bed, you can't get into the Imperial College and you can't get into the exam. If you don't have perseverance and perseverance, how can you make a name for yourself?
After running past Lushan Academy, the shops on both sides disappeared, and gradually turned into a field covered with snow. The surroundings became desolate again. Although there were still stars above the sky, a trace of green light had faintly appeared in the sky, and the morning light began to penetrate into the thick night light little by little.
Soon, Li Yanqing returned to the entrance of the village. Although he had run forty miles, Li Yanqing was not tired at all. He decided to continue running forward for another ten miles, but he ran less than one mile and suddenly stopped.
He found a fire dragon in front of him, rising and falling, flying towards this side along the official road. Of course, there would be no fire dragon, this is an army running with torches.
Li Yanqing's mind suddenly buzzed! He immediately realized that this was most likely the army of Liangshan, and they actually came to Xiangzhou.
Li Yanqing immediately rushed into the snow on the roadside and ran directly to the village...
Seeing the army holding torches getting closer, Li Yanqing stood on the village road of Baibu Out, watching the army running through him. The army had about 7,000 people, the five thousand people in front were regular infantry wearing imperial armor and spears, while the two thousand people behind were young and strong peasants wearing cloth clothes and wooden sticks and hoes.
From this point of view, Li Yanqing was able to confirm that this army was not a wing army, nor a rural soldier, or the Liangshan army that attacked Liyangcang.
But what did the Liangshan army come to Xiangzhou to do? Although Xiangzhou is an important grain-producing area, the amount of grain in the government's inventory is far less than that in Liyang Cang, nor is it a wealth concentration area. The wealth of Daming Prefecture is still the same.
Thinking of Daming Mansion, Li Yanqing's mind was like a flash of lightning. He immediately figured out that the destination of this army should be Daming Mansion. Zhou Chun told himself that Liang Zhongshu led 30,000 troops to confront the main force of the Liangshan Army in the Bozhou area. Then, Daming Mansion was empty at this time, Liangshan army bypassed Xiangzhou and entered Daming Mansion, and attacked Liang Zhongshu from behind.
Their attack on Li Yangcang was just a guise to confuse the government. They shot Li Yangcang and went north to enter Xiangzhou. After passing through Tangyin County, they could directly enter Daming Mansion along the official road in the northeast.
Li Yanqing made a quick decision and he had to notify the Daming Mansion government immediately for this news that he could send the pigeon letter to the Tang Family Inn in Daming Mansion through the Tang Family’s Ge Letter.
Li Yanqing quickly ran back home, and Uncle Zhong greeted him, "Is there anything important to the little official?"
"Help me pull the horse out, I have something urgent to go out!"
Li Yanqing said as he ran out of his room, took a stone chess piece and a cloth bag, a short sword and a bow and arrow and returned to the yard. At this time, Uncle Zhong had already led the horse out. Li Yanqing turned over the horse and held the reins and said to Uncle Zhong: "There are many Liangshan bandits coming outside. Please tell the patriarch that everyone should not go out."
Uncle Zhong was startled, "I'll go right away!"
He stepped forward and opened the gate of the courtyard. Li Yanqing urged the horse to run out, but immediately stopped the war horse. Two horse riders came from a dozen steps across from him, one tall and the other short. One of them pointed to his room and said, "Dad, it's here!"
It was a girl's voice, Li Yanqing was shocked, this voice
The two people on the other side approached. It was indeed Hu Cheng who had not seen him for many years and his daughter Hu Qing'er. He looked at each other with three pairs of eyes, and Hu Cheng looked surprised, "Brother Qing, why are you here?"
Li Yanqing restrained his inner tension and smiled faintly, "Uncle Hu, Qing'er, it's been a long time since we saw you!"
The girl changed her age, and Hu Qing'er and her break up completely when they broke up in Suzhou. Li Yanqing was vaguely 14 or 15 years old, but she has become a big girl. She has a beautiful oval face, thin long eyebrows, a pair of moving almond eyes, a high nose bridge, and a pretty face, but her eyes are very sharp. She is wearing soft armor, long horse boots, and an eagle helmet on her head, making her look even more heroic.
Hu Cheng patted his forehead and smiled apologetically: "I'm confused. This is your home, of course you should be here!"
"Not right!"
A look of surprise flashed in Hu Qing'er's eyes and asked in confusion: "Brother Li should be fighting in Xixia, why did he return to his hometown?"
Li Yanqing smiled and said, "It turns out that Qing'er also knew that the Song Dynasty was using troops against Xixia. The war in Xixia has ended. Both sides agreed to peace. I came back to worship my mother. Why did the uncle and Qing'er come to Tangyin?"
Hu Cheng was a little embarrassed and smiled reluctantly, "We passed by Tangyin County and went back to our hometown to take a look. After all, I have lived here for five years, and Qing'er was also born here."
"I'm sorry, the old house is gone."
"It's okay! The village is still there, and the old locust tree I planted is also there."
Hu Cheng pointed to the open space next to him and smiled: "This should be the original gate. Look, the bluestone threshold is still there!"
"Uncle comes in and sit down!"
Hu Cheng hesitated for a moment, and a soldier rushed over and whispered to Hu Cheng: "Ship Lu has urgent matters to discuss with the general!"
Hu Cheng nodded, "I'll go right away!"
Hu Cheng smiled at Li Yanqing and said, "I have something urgent to go back. Next time! Brother Qing takes care of you, and we will see you again if you have the chance."
Li Yanqing just said a few polite words, but he didn't want their father and daughter to enter the house. He was anxious and wished they could leave immediately.
Li Yanqing hurriedly clasped his fists, "Uncle Hu, take care of Qing'er!"
"Qing'er, let's go!"
Hu Cheng turned his horse's head and headed towards the entrance of the village. Hu Qing'er glanced at Li Yanqing meaningfully, and turned his horse's head and followed his father.
Li Yanqing could not rush to rush the road. At least he would wait until their father and daughter left the village. Li Yanqing urged the horse to follow from afar. At this time, when he saw Hu Cheng and his daughter leaving the village, he immediately turned the horse's head and ran towards another small road at the east end of the village.
The path leads directly to Yongji Canal three miles away. He can reach Tangwang Village by going north along Yongji Canal, but as soon as he ran dozens of steps, a slander suddenly came from behind, "Stop!"
Li Yanqing stopped the war horse and showed a wry smile on his face. This little girl was too smart, and she still couldn't hide it from her. He slowly turned his head and smiled at Hu Qing'er who was running forward, saying, "Is there anything else to do with Qing'er?"
"Brother Li hurriedly rode out the door, wanting to inform him, right?" Hu Qing'er looked at him with a smile.
Li Yanqing sighed, "I just want to go to Tangwang Village to inform some good friends to escape quickly!"
"If this is the case, then there is no need. Our Liangshan Army is in charge of the heavens and only kills corrupt dog officials who are in trouble, and does not harm ordinary people!"
Li Yanqing sneered, "To put it nicely, Tao Jun and Jia Jin from Fushan are also your people! ** Burning and killing, robbing people's wealth, and harming the people, is this also called practicing the way for heaven?"
Hu Qing'er raised her eyebrows, "There is such a thing? Please rest assured by Brother Li. I will report to the Master Song and find out the truth. If they really harm the people, we will definitely punish them severely!"
Li Yanqing just tempted Hu Qing'er, but she didn't expect that she really admitted that Tao Jun and Jia Jin were their people. He smiled and said, "I don't know what you are doing in Tangyin County. Of course, I won't go to inform you. I just went to see my friends. Don't think about it!"
Hu Qing'er sighed slightly, "Brother Li, I'm doing it for your own good. If the second village leader knew that you had ruined his big deal, he would never let you go. You'd better go back! Don't wade into this muddy water."
Li Yanqing snorted, "The second village leader you are talking about is Lu Junyi! Don't use him to suppress me. I don't want to worry about your affairs, but don't worry about what I'm going to do, there will be a period of time later!"
Li Yanqing turned his horse's head and walked. As soon as he took two steps, he felt a chill in his neck. A soft whip like a snake wrapped around his neck silently. He was about to break free with force, Hu Qing'er shouted anxiously: "Don't move, your throat will break when you move."
Li Yanqing touched the soft whip with his hand, and then he realized that there was a sharp blade hidden in the soft whip. It was indeed a powerful weapon. Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Is this Yizhangqing?"
"I just ask if you want to go back?"
Li Yanqing was silent for a moment and said calmly: "If I guess correctly, you are going to sneak attack Daming Mansion!"
Hu Qing'er trembled all over and gritted her teeth secretly, "I know I can't hide it from you!"
"Of course you can't hide your little tricks from me, but you wrap your whip blade around my neck and cut my throat. Is this your kindness to me?"
Hu Qing'er bit her lip and said, "I...I'm just for your own good, I will never hurt you."
"That's right!"
Li Yanqing reached out and slowly untied the whip blade on his neck. Hu Qing'er was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.
Just when she was distracted, Li Yanqing suddenly pulled his arms hard, grabbed the whip blade, threw it away, then grabbed the horse with his legs, and the horse ran away.
"I'm leaving, Qing'er, we'll have a date later!"
Hu Qing'er was immediately angry and anxious. She ran to pick up the whip blade and looked up again. Li Yanqing had already disappeared. She was so angry that she whipped hard at a big tree next to her.
"I don't appreciate it for your own good, just do whatever you want!"
She also turned her head and ran towards Lushan Town...
