Jiajing has been feeling happy and worried these past two days. What is great is that Anda Khan immediately wrote a letter, praising the success of the mutual trade. He also emphatically praised Governor Qiu Luan for his righteousness in killing relatives. In order to ensure the fairness of the mutual trade, he even beheaded his own godson in public. !Kanshula
Although Jiajing didn't know when Qiu Luan had adopted a godson, he was still very happy about it. He issued an order to commend Qiu Luan, named him the crown prince and Taibao, and also commended Qi Jiguang.
Qiu Luan was overjoyed when he heard the news. Hearing that Xiao Feng was leaving, he hurriedly packed some gifts and ran over to see him off.
Qiu Luan took out the banknote and said plausibly: "This is by no means a bribe. It is Brother Xiao's wedding. Qiu is busy with military affairs and cannot be present to congratulate him. This congratulation has to be made up for. Even those stinky censors have to make up for it." You can’t say it’s wrong!”
Xiao Feng accepted the banknote from him without caring. It would be a waste to put it in this guy's hands anyway. Then seeing him secretly stuffing the banknote into Zhang Wuxin's hand, Zhang Wuxin looked at Xiao Feng with a smile.
Xiao Feng nodded: "Just take what Mr. Qiu gave you. Didn't An Qingyue want to get married to you as soon as possible? I guess Mr. Qiu will be busy with official duties and won't be able to congratulate you."
Qiu Luan nodded in agreement: "Brother Xiao is right! Is there anyone else in your family who is getting married? I'll make up for it as well!"
Qi Jiguang suddenly said from the side: "I heard that Brother Xiao has been married to Miss Liu, which is also a happy news!"
Qiu Luan quickly took out another silver note and gave it to Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng looked at Qi Jiguang helplessly, why didn't you pick up which pot?
Zhang Wuxin suddenly said from the side: "Qingmei told me that Zhang Yunqing and Wang Yingxiang play chess in the backyard every day and bet on who can become Brother Xiao's concubine first. Now their Go skills have reached the national level!"
Qiu Luan quickly took out another silver note and gave it to Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng repeatedly declined, saying that this matter was completely false and he should not congratulate him casually.
Zhang Wuxin suddenly thought of yesterday's letter: "I heard that Long Live is going to choose a consort for Princess Chang'an. The princess is interested in Brother Xiao. This can't be a myth!"
Qiu Luan quickly took out another banknote and stuffed it into Xiao Feng's arms, muttering in his mouth.
"That's right, even I heard about it in Datong. You and the princess are treating each other mouth-to-mouth. It would be really crazy if the prince-in-law chooses someone else."
After a long time of commotion, Xiao Feng had more and more happy events, and finally Qiu Luan gave up because the banknotes he carried were not enough.
Before Xiao Feng set off, Qiu Luan took the time to write the word "Government" in big letters and put it in front of Xiao Feng.
"Brother Xiao, the past year or so has been smooth sailing since I met you, which makes me feel unreal. It's as if my original destiny was not like this and was just a dream.
Farewell today, I don’t know when we will see each other again. If you are tired, let me take another test to see if I can be the governor of Xuanda for a long time. What should I do next? Is it good or bad?"
Strictly speaking, what Qiu Luan asked was not a question, but it can actually be summarized as one question.
Since Xiao Feng came back from the dead, the Heavenly Book's restrictions on him are no longer so strict, and it's okay to play around with things occasionally.
It's just Qiu Luan's special state of mind that surprised Xiao Feng. Qiu Luan's original fate was indeed not like this.
In history, Qiu Luan was equally prosperous at this time. But all of that was due to his good deeds and deeds, and his victory in defeat, just like a castle on the beach or a castle in the air.
So later on, he screwed up the mutual market, lost the war, and fell quickly after being exposed. He ended up with a tragic ending of splitting the coffin and killing the corpse, the nine tribes suffered, and the children were enslaved.
But after Xiao Feng came, although the general trajectory of Qiu Luan's fate was not deviated, he did not kill good people and take credit, nor was he defeated like a mountain, nor did he mess up the mutual market.
Although he is just as greedy, he is very different from Qiu Luan in history. Therefore, Xiao Feng is really not sure about his future fate.
It's just a word test method. The more specific the question is, the more accurate it will be. For a question as grand as Qiu Luan's, Xiao Feng can only do his best.
"Old enemy, the word "Du" means "Uncle" and "Uncle" means "Bozhong" and "Uncle Ji".
meaning;
"The eyes are like long days, and the days are like years. This word can only be seen within three years, but there is no secret of heaven beyond three years."
After three years, Qiu Luan felt a little more relieved. As long as nothing happened within three years and relying on his intelligence, he would definitely be able to gain a foothold and no one would be afraid of him.
"The left side of the character 'uncle' is '嗗', and '上' means 'Shang Xia' is small. You must remember the superiority and inferiority of superiors and inferiors. If you forget this, within three years, you may lose your glory and your fortune will change!"
Qiu Luan was shocked. He had been so proud recently that he was indeed a little carried away. Jiajing had more and more trust in him, and he was also a little arrogant. Xiao Feng's words directly touched his swollen little heart, and he was instantly relieved.
Angry.
"'The top is' the lack of soil. As a border general, you have the appearance of guarding the lack of soil. You are guarding the front line of Xuanda. If you make a mistake, it will be a serious crime. I'm afraid that if it happens, you will be in disaster.
Got it!"
Qiu Luan was shocked: "Then, what should I do? Isn't it possible to save it within three years?"
Xiao Feng frowned and was also surprised by this question. However, he calculated in his mind the year in history when Qi Jiguang went to the coast to fight against the Japanese. He couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Your own time travel may change a lot of things, but some nodes are as if destined by God, stubbornly refusing to flap with the butterfly's wings, firmly nailed to the course of history.
"If there is any doubt in the word, you should interpret it from the word. If you want to keep the soil without any shortage, you should use the word '嗗' as the key. If you use '嗗' to hold the 'Ge', and keep the soil, it will be 'achievement'. Do you know what the word is?"
Qiu Luan gestured blankly with his fingers in the air: the character '嗗', plus the character 'ge', it looks like the character '成...'
"It's 'Qi!' The outer character of Qi is 'cheng', and the inner character is '尗'. The best thing is that the right side itself is the character 'ge'!"
Qiu Luan was like a wise man who had correctly figured out that one plus two equals three. He excitedly raised his three fingers and compared them with Xiao Feng.
"So, you will continue to be the governor of Xuanda, but you might as well give Qi Jiguang the control over Xuanda's defense line. You are in the light and he is in the dark. I think it will be safe."
Qiu Luan hugged Qi Jiguang's shoulders happily, fearing that his amulet would disappear with a "whoosh".
"Brother Qi, you must promise me not to leave! This is not what I said. This is what Brother Xiao said. You have to listen!"
Qi Jiguang was shaken by Qiu Luan so much that he felt dizzy. He watched helplessly as Xiao Feng got on his horse with a smirk on his face and took Zhang Wuxin away.
Although Xiao Feng is considered an imperial envoy, he has never been very ostentatious, and this trip was in a hurry, so everything was kept simple and the number of people accompanying him was not large, only about thirty people.
Among them were two Jinyi guards, and the rest were transferred from the cavalry battalion in the capital. Everyone rode a horse, so the speed of this small team was naturally very fast.
It is more than 500 miles from Datong to Beijing. If you follow the 600-mile sprint method and change horses without changing people, you can reach it in one day. However, Xiao Feng is not delivering a message, so there is no need to perform fast and furious.
But the equipment of the imperial envoy's cavalry was definitely not bad, so even without galloping, they had already traveled two hundred miles in half a day, and the post road began to enter the mountains and forests.
Just when Xiao Feng was considering whether to dismount and take a rest, Zhang Wuxin suddenly shouted: "Who is it, come out!"
Before he finished speaking, a row of bows and arrows were shot out from the woods on the roadside. From the sound, it didn't sound like a bow, but a crossbow! The crossbow arrows were so powerful that two cavalrymen who had no time to react were shot and knocked off their horses.
These assassins obviously came well prepared, because the official roads and post roads were relatively wide, and the woods on the roadside were not very dense, so people were hiding on both sides of the road. They had to draw their bows and be ready. They were easily discovered, but they could not be found with a crossbow.
It requires extra movement and is more secretive.
In addition, crossbows are more powerful and lethal than ordinary bows, and are often used as the most long-range weapon in battles.
Xiao Feng reacted immediately and saw that Zhang Wuxin was still looking for the location where the crossbow arrow came from, and immediately shouted: "Charge!"
Then he reached out and took out a catapult from his pocket. A small black ball flew up into the sky and exploded with a thunderbolt. Thick colored smoke could be seen in the daytime sky. This was obviously an improved product of the Taoist pyrotechnics.
If you stay where you are at this time, you will definitely become a target again. But since these ambush assassins are in the woods, they cannot ride horses. As long as they rush out on horseback, they will be left behind in an instant.
Bandits have been suppressed many times from Datong to the capital, and there will not be large-scale bandits. Therefore, the number of these assassins will not be too large, and they cannot be all along the road. As long as they rush over, they can avert the danger.
Everyone also came to their senses, and while firing arrows, they hit their horses and charged. Although Xiao Feng was the first to shout, a crossbow arrow just hit the knee joint of his horse's right front leg.
That is the most vulnerable part of the horse when it is running. If the knee is hit by an arrow, the horse can no longer run fast. When everyone is charging desperately, this delay delays his start and falls directly from the front of the team to the back of the team.
Zhang Wuxin also slowed down, followed Xiao Feng, and swung his sword to help him fire the crossbow arrows. The other people's horses were already galloping, but half of them didn't notice that Xiao Feng was lagging behind.
A guard in royal robes rushed to the front. In front of him was an empty horse. The cavalryman on the horse was shot down and the horse was hit by an arrow. The empty horse had no load and was frightened, so it naturally ran the fastest.
The guard in golden clothes watched the frightened horse in front of him run away, and then the horse's head suddenly flew up. He followed closely, and the horse's head happened to fall into his arms.
Ma Tou stared with big eyes, and Jin Yiwei looked at each other, as if they were asking each other: What happened?
The headless horse continued to gallop forward. Because of its extremely fast speed, the blood sprayed from the horse's neck was flying in the air, which was both charming and terrifying.
The Jin Yiwei suddenly realized something and shouted, but the galloping horse could not stop, and the horse's head flew up. Then the Jin Yiwei was cut off at the waist, and half of his body flew into the air, but the screams did not stop.
"Sir, be careful of Wu Jinsi!"
This is the value of the Jin Yiwei in the imperial guard. His kung fu may not reach the level of a master, but as the top spy of the Ming Dynasty, the Jin Yiwei has undergone various trainings, is well-informed, and knows all kinds of treasures that he has never seen before.
He had already thought about it the moment the horse's head fell into his arms. Unfortunately, his speed was too fast and the distance was too close, so he had no time to dodge. But his screams before he was cut in half made the Jin Yiwei who followed him react.
time.
The Jin Yiwei also had no time to rein in his horse, but he quickly stood up the Xiuchun knife used to strike arrows, held the handle with one hand, and pushed the back of the knife with the other hand, pointing the blade outward.
The horse's head flew up again, and the friction between the blade of the Xiuchun Knife and the black gold thread made a tooth-searing sound. The huge inertia of the Jin Yiwei pulled the black gold thread tied to the tree deeply into the trunk, and then the entire
The person turns over and falls to the ground.
Seeing that the people behind him were also rushing up, the Jin Yiwei slashed the black gold wire with his sword. The black gold wire was extremely tough and could not be cut continuously, but with every slash, the black gold wire would get deeper into the tree trunk.
The people behind them reined in their horses and slowed down. Several crossbow arrows flew in and hit the Jin Yiwei in the legs and back. The Jin Yiwei staggered, but he ignored it and continued to slash with his sword.
Finally, the two thick trees holding the Wujin wire were broken. The Wujin wire suddenly shrank into a small ball in the air, and the two big trees fell down.
A big tree smashed down several small trees, and an assassin firing a crossbow was unable to dodge and was smashed to the ground, accidentally dying.
Another big tree was pushed by someone's palms, changed its direction in the air, and lay directly across the official road. The man immediately jumped on top of the lying tree, with black gauze covering his face, revealing only a pair of extremely ordinary eyes.
Eye.
After this delay, everyone also discovered that Xiao Feng was lagging behind, so they turned their horses around and surrounded Xiao Feng again.
