Yang Peng rubbed his nose and said depressedly: "Grandma, why do you keep sneezing recently? Someone must be scolding me behind my back!" Yang Jiumei poked Yang Peng's chest with her delicate jade finger and said angrily: "You are a bad person.
If you're going to die, there will naturally be people scolding you behind your back!" Yang Peng grabbed Yang Jiumei's palm, stroked her slender waist with the other hand, and called out with longing: "Sister Yang Ying!..." Yang Jiumei was heartbroken.
After a while, he rolled his eyes at Yang Peng, "What are you doing?" Yang Peng swallowed, "In less than two days, I will hold a wedding and marry you!"
Yang Ying was very excited, but then she frowned and shook her head, "No way!" Yang Peng immediately stared and shouted: "No way?!" Yang Ying was greatly embarrassed, her face turned red and she punched him, and said angrily: "Ghost
What is it called? It shocked people!" "Honestly, why not?"
Yang Jiumei's face was red and she said angrily: "How can we hold a wedding if the elders are not here! The saint said..." Yang Peng glared and said: "Bullshit saint! I want to kill him!" Yang Jiumei looked at Yang blankly.
Peng suddenly burst into laughter. He leaned into Yang Peng's arms and said softly: "Seeing you like this, brother, makes me so happy!" Yang Peng hugged Yang Ying and pouted: "I'm depressed.
"Yang Ying pursed her lips and smiled, raised her head, patted Yang Peng's cheek gently, and said as if comforting a child: "Don't worry, that day will come!"
Yang Peng looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and couldn't help but feel emotional. He hugged her suddenly and kissed her red lips without any explanation. At first, Yang Jiumei was very embarrassed, but soon she was immersed in love and lust.
In the sea, all the souls flew into the sky, drifting in and out, completely unaware of where they were.
After a long while, Yang Peng let go of Yang Jiumei, who was almost breathless by his kiss. Yang Jiumei held Yang Peng's chest and panted, raised her head and rolled her eyes at him angrily, "You are so mean!" Yang Peng laughed,
"There will be worse things after you get out the door!" Yang Jiumei's beautiful face was as red as fire, her beautiful eyes stared at Yang Peng, filled with boundless tenderness and shame. She gently leaned into Yang Peng's arms,
Humming the two songs that were sung to her, the beautiful melody rippled out from her red lips, giving her a completely different kind of charming charm.
The sound of footsteps suddenly came, and they stopped suddenly when they came outside the room. Yang Jiumei quickly stood up from Yang Peng's arms, straightened her hair and clothes. Yang Peng smiled and shouted outside: "
Come in." Footsteps sounded again, and the female guard captain Jiang Li in military uniform walked around the screen and appeared in front of Yang Peng and Yang Jiumei. Seeing the scene in front of her, Jiang Li, who had been here for a long time, couldn't help but feel excited. She cupped her fists and said:
"The imperial envoy is here and is waiting in the lobby."
Yang Peng frowned, "It's the imperial envoy again! They must have too many names!" He stood up. He glanced at Yang Jiumei, who was leaning sideways with her head slightly lowered, and said softly: "I'll be back as soon as I go.
." Yang Jiumei nodded gently. Yang Peng and Jiang Li left the room. Yang Jiumei breathed a sigh of relief, her beautiful face suddenly turned red again, her eyes flickered, she seemed to be worried about something.
Yang Peng and Jiang Li hurried to the hall and saw a middle-aged official with a kind face. Yang Peng couldn't help but be stunned. He thought he was a eunuch as usual! "My lord!" Yang Peng said with his fists clasped.
He returned the salute and said with a smile: "I have heard of the reputation of the General for a long time. When I saw it today, it turned out that he was like a dragon and a tiger. He is well-deserved!"
"Your Excellency, you are exaggerating. I wonder what you call me?" "Pang Ran, the lower official, is appointed as the Yanyun Xuanfu Envoy by the emperor's order." Yang Peng was stunned, "Xuanfu Envoy? Why did the imperial court suddenly appoint a Xuanfu Envoy?
Pang Ran said with a smile: "The imperial court cares about the General's hard work, so it specially sent subordinate officials to take charge of government affairs. The military affairs still have to trouble the General." Yang Peng said with a smile and said: "Welcome. Mr. Pang is here, I can
It’s much easier.”
Pang Ran smiled slightly and said, "I am here. In addition to serving as an envoy, I also have an imperial edict to hand over to the general." He then took the edict from his entourage, walked up to the superior with the edict in his hand, and said loudly.
: "Yan Yun left behind General Yu Linwei to receive the order!" Yang Peng quickly turned to Cai Chen and knelt down on one knee. Jiang Li followed Yang Peng and knelt down on one knee.
Pang Ran opened the imperial edict and read it out. The general content was that after Yang Peng handed over the government affairs to Pang Ran, he immediately mobilized an elite army to rescue Xijing. Yang Peng thanked him, stood up, and accepted the imperial edict. Pang Ran smiled and clasped his fists and said:
"Please take care of me, General, from now on!"
Yang Peng smiled and clasped his fists and said: "Where is it? General, please take care of me!" Pang Ran smiled and asked, "Why didn't you see the supervisor?" "Master Xue went to the north for inspection!
"
Pang Ran snorted and said with a smile: "Mr.
Clean it up so that it can be used as an official office for your lord." "Then it will be up to the general!" "Everywhere, this is the responsibility of the general."
Yang Peng personally sent Pang Ran out of the gate and ordered Zhang Daniu to lead them to the guest house. After sending them off, Pang Ran frowned and said: "Immediately send someone to monitor the guest house closely. If there is any movement, report immediately; give everyone to me
Call me over." Jiang Li promised with clasped fists.
Qian Letian, Zhang Yan, Zhan Jinguo, Duan Zhixian, Li Xu, Zhou Dayong, Huyan Chijin, Huyan Bixian, Chen Jie, Yang Xiong, Shi Ping, Yang Jing, Cheng Shijie, Liu Zhiliang, etc. received Yang Peng's order and came one after another.
Stay in the mansion.
Everyone gathered in the hall, Yang Peng sat at the top, and everyone sat down on both sides. Yang Peng explained what had just happened, and Yang Jing immediately jumped up and shouted: "What kind of bird edict is this? I'm going to chop it down."
Kill that bird!" Yuluo picked up two axes and went out to chop people. Chen Jie quickly grabbed him, "Brother Yang Jing, don't be impulsive! We have to listen to the orders of the eldest brother!"
Yang Jing said to Yang Peng: "If you accept this imperial edict, I will not recognize you as my elder brother!" Yang Peng said angrily: "You bastard, sit down for me!" Yang Jing curled his lips, but he was obedient.
He returned to his seat and sat down, slamming the two axes on both sides with a loud bang.
Qian Letian frowned and said: "If the handover is really made, I'm afraid that many of our things will be exposed! Each of these things is worthy of the crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the family!" Yang Jing said angrily: "This court is really
You have nothing to do when you are full, why do you want to send such a bird propaganda envoy?"
Zhan Jinguo frowned and said: "I know this Pang Ran. He is the third son of Grand Master Pang. On the surface, he is friendly, but in fact he is full of evil. He is used to stabbing people in the back and killing people without blinking an eye! It should be Grand Master Pang's idea that he should be the Xuanfu envoy.
Maybe Master Pang thinks there is money to be made here!"
At night, in the post house, Pang Ran was talking to two cronies. These two cronies were his right-hand assistants, one was named Li Shantong and the other was named Zhou Fan. Li Shantong looked like a reckless man, while Zhou Fan looked like a typical Confucian scholar.
Looks very polite.
Li Shantong sighed with emotion: "I really didn't expect that the eight states of Yanyun would be so peaceful and prosperous! We really made the right mistake this time!" Zhou Fan frowned and said: "This Yang Peng is not simple! He actually got it in such a short time.
The governance of the Eight Prefectures of Yanyun has become what it is today! The prosperity of the upper capital is beyond expectation, there are so many merchants, I have never seen anything similar except Tokyo City!"
Li Shantong sneered and said: "What's not simple! The results he has worked so hard to create must now be handed over to the adults respectfully?" Zhou Fan nodded quickly: "That's right!" He glanced at Pang Ran,
Flattery said: "No matter how capable Yang Peng is, how can he be compared with us adults!"
Pang Ran smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said: "Yang Peng will lead his army to leave here soon. We can take advantage of the opportunity. It would be best to collect evidence against him. If we collect
It doesn't matter if you don't get it. You can bribe a few officials or officers under him. There are always people who are unjust these days. Let them go to the capital to complain. If I file a memorial here, my father will also attack the emperor at the same time. He Yang Peng
Even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't even think of escaping this disaster! By then, Yanyun will be our territory!"
The two nodded excitedly, and Li Shantong praised: "Your Excellency's plan is really good!" Zhou Fan said with some worry: "I heard that the eldest son has arranged a move to deal with Yang Peng. Will it be possible if we do this?
Offend the eldest young master?" Pang Ran sneered: "If his plan succeeds, it will be his credit, and I won't get anything. I will defeat Yang Peng before his plan succeeds! Come to
At that time, he was too embarrassed to take a share of the pie." The two scoundrels praised Cai Feng for his foresight and foresight to outwit Zhuge.
Bang bang, the door suddenly rang twice. Cai Chen said loudly: "Come in." The door opened, and an entourage he brought from the capital came in. He cupped his fists and said, "Sir, the postmaster of the posthouse wants to see you."
What is he here for? Let him in."
The attendant responded, ran down, and led the messenger in after a while. The messenger was a man in his thirties, with a simple and down-to-earth appearance. When the messenger saw Pang Ran, he quickly clasped his fists and bowed: "
I’m going to pay my respects to the Xuanfu Envoy!” Pang Ran said, “Why do you want to see me?” “My lord is here for the first time, so there must be some things that are not clear to me, so I’m here to remind you.”
"Oh? What's the matter?" "Your Excellency, you may not know. Shangjing is different from the mainland. Khitan spies and bandits often sneak into the city to do business, so it is very unsafe after dark. Just a dozen days ago, a group of people in this city
The wealthy owner of the household was robbed by bandits who sneaked into the city. All the twenty-odd members of the family were killed and most of their belongings were taken away..."
When the three of them heard this, they were shocked. Pang Ran said in disbelief: "Such a thing could happen? But why do I feel that Shangjing is so peaceful and peaceful?" Yichen looked around and lowered his voice: "It's not true.
To tell you the truth, this is just a way for the general to show off for himself." "Oh? How do you say this?"
"The general knew that your Excellency was coming, and in order to show his political achievements, he did enough homework beforehand! First, he frequently dispatched troops to clear out the bandits along the official road and drove them into the mountains. Then he ordered the states to drive away the homeless and beggars, and paid for them.
People disguised as caravans gathered in various cities, especially here in Beijing, thus creating the illusion of prosperity! After a while, adults will naturally see the real scene here! "
The three people looked at each other in disbelief. The Yichen clasped his fists and said: "That's what I want to say. I won't disturb you for your rest. I will leave!" He bowed to Pang Ran and retreated. Li Shantong said in surprise: "He
Is what he said true or false? Could it be that everything we have seen along the way is false?" Zhou Fan thought: "There is no need for him to lie to us, I think it should be true!" He took a look at it.
Pang Ran cupped his fists and said, "Sir, I think we should be more vigilant!" Pang Ran frowned and nodded, muttering: "If all this is false, I don't need to bother with this."...
It was late at night, and the noisy and bustling Shangjing City fell asleep. The whole city was extremely quiet, with only the occasional barking of dogs and the rhythmic sound of a watch. Suddenly, a shrill cry broke through the silent night: "No
Okay! The bandits from Liupin Mountain have entered the city!" Then there were chaotic shouts and the sound of swordsmen killing. The people were awakened, and the frightened cries of women and children could be heard in many people's yards.
Pang Ran and others who were staying in the guest house were also woken up. Hearing the very scary noise outside, he couldn't help but panic. He quickly put on his clothes and pants and ran to the front hall. Pang Ran saw Li Shantong and Zhou Fan.
He asked anxiously: "What's going on? What happened?" Li Shantong and Zhou Fan also looked panicked and shook their heads.
At this time, Yichen stumbled in, "No, it's not good, sir!" The three of them were startled, and Pang Ran asked hurriedly: "What happened?"
The post minister swallowed his saliva and said in a panic: "Yes, they are the bandits from Liupin Mountain! They probably thought that the master had brought a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, so they came to the post house!" The three of them were frightened when they heard this.
The souls of the dead were all at risk. Before they could recover, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the hall, as if the door was being smashed. The three people were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they had no idea what to do. The postmaster shouted anxiously
He said: "Quick! Let's go!" Then he ran towards the back door of the hall. The three of them were already in a state of despair. The postmaster had become a life-saving straw in their eyes, so they hurriedly followed them.
When they came out of the hall, they saw the light of torches on all sides, the sound of killings, the clash of swords and the screams of dying people. The three of them felt as if they were in hell.
He was already out of his mind. Suddenly, from the direction of the backyard, the Imperial City guards came rolling over and passed by Pang Ran. They were all frightened to the extreme, and completely lost the majesty they had when they cleared the way for Pang Ran.
When the four people saw this, they were startled and stopped quickly. Then they saw countless big men with bare breasts and ferocious faces waving weapons and chasing after them, chopping up the imperial guards to the ground like chopping vegetables and melons.
There were screams, and the eyes were full of flying blood and the ferocious faces of those big men!
Pang Ran and the other three were so frightened that they peed like urine and rolled forward. The big men caught up with them and caught them. The three of them begged for mercy, with runny noses and tears. They looked so pitiful! A big man stared and shouted.
"Where is your treasure?" "No, no, no treasure!" Zhou Fan stammered, trembling.
The big man stared, raised his knife and chopped off his head. The bloody head rolled on the ground. Pang Ran and Li Shantong were so frightened that their three souls flew out of the sky, and their whole bodies shook. The big man pointed the bloody steel knife at
The two of them glared and shouted: "Where is the treasure? If you don't tell me, he is a role model!"
The two of them had no idea what to do, there was no treasure, but they didn't dare to say anything, for fear of repeating Zhou Fan's mistake, so they had no choice but to kowtow and beg for mercy. The king shouted like a grandfather and carried out all the old and young people in his family.
, hoping to gain mercy from the other party.
At this moment, the sound of military horns came from outside the post house, and then the sounds of the army attacking and killing came from all directions. The bandits panicked, and one of them shouted loudly: "The officers and soldiers are coming, retreat quickly!" The bandits
They all ran toward the back door. Two bandits slashed Pang Ran and Li Shantong to death with their swords, and quickly followed them.
Li Shantong woke up, recalled the terrible scene just now, and sat up quickly, but the wound was affected, and he was sweating in pain. "Don't move! Look, the wound has opened again!" came an annoyed voice.
Li Shantong quickly looked up and saw an old man walking quickly. The old man came to the bed, bent down and looked at his wound. Because of the sudden movement just now, the wound on his shoulder had obviously split open, and blood was gurgling out.
With.
"Who are you? Where are you?" Li Shantong asked vigilantly. "I am the doctor from Pushan Hall in the city. I have been ordered by the general to treat your injury." "General? This is the stay-at-home residence?"
"Where else could it be if it weren't for the left-behind residence? Lie down and I'll bandage you again and apply medicine."
Li Shantong lay down subconsciously. The old doctor carefully untied the bandage covering the wound and called one of his servants to fetch hot water. After a while, the hot water came, and the old doctor carefully helped Li Shantong.
After cleaning the wound, he dried it with a dry cloth. He then took a blue and white porcelain bottle from the boy's hand, carefully sprinkled the powder on the wound little by little, and then wrapped it with a clean bandage. Cold sweat broke out on Li Shantong's forehead.
Waves of sharp, needle-like pain made him almost scream.
After finishing all the work, the old doctor breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily to Li Shantong: "Stop moving! If the wound breaks open again, your life will not be saved!" Li Shantong obeyed. The old doctor stood up.
He went to pack his medicine box. At this time, the door creaked open and several people walked in. The one at the head was Chen Xiao.
The old doctor and the young man quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "The ordinary people pay homage to the general!" Yang Peng smiled and said: "No need to be polite, just get up." The two stood up and stood respectfully aside. Yang Peng walked to the bed and said, "
Your life has finally been saved, which can be said to be a blessing among misfortunes!" Li Shantong asked quickly: "May I ask the general, how are the others?"
Yang Peng sighed, "They are all dead!" Li Shantong felt his head explode, "Pang, Pang Pang is also dead?" Yang Peng nodded, "This is really an unforeseen disaster. I didn't expect those bandits to be so bold as to raid the post house.
!Perhaps they think you are high-ranking officials from the capital, and you must be carrying many treasures with you."
Li Shantong said with a bitter face: "Ren Pangda is dead, what should we do?" Yang Peng said: "This was all done by the bandits in Liupin Mountain. You don't have to blame yourself too much. I think the court and Grand Master Pang will understand!
"Li Shantong smiled bitterly.
Yang Peng said: "You are seriously injured, just rest here for a while. I came here today to say goodbye to you. I am going to lead the army to rescue Xijing. You have a good rest. If you need anything, just tell him that he is
The left-behind governor Shi, Qian Letian, Lord Qian." Qian Letian came forward and hugged Li Shantong.
Yang Peng said: "You guys have a chat, I'm leaving." Yuluo turned around and left. Everyone respectfully sent Yang Peng off. Qian Letian sent the old doctor and his young man away, and then sat down on the edge of the bed.
After taking a look at Li Shantong, he said, "It seems that Mr. Li is fine. He is very lucky!" Li Shantong said with a wry smile: "I really don't know how to deal with the business after I return!" Qian Letian said: "Didn't the general say that?
?This is not the responsibility of adults, it has nothing to do with adults at all!"
Li Shantong quickly looked at Qian Letian and asked: "Have those bandits been caught?" Qian Letian frowned and said: "This group of bandits in Liupin Mountain are all desperadoes, and they will not surrender even if they are surrounded! But no one escaped.
, all were killed! It can be regarded as avenging the great man and the soldiers who died!" Then he said: "Master Li, it is really regrettable that such a thing happened. I also hope that Master Li can be able to serve under the Grand Master and the Master after he returns.
Please explain more in front of Your Majesty." He winked at the secret guard holding a wooden box next to him, who immediately came forward and put the wooden box on the bed.
Li Shantong's heart moved. Qian Letian opened the wooden box, and the jewels immediately illuminated Li Shantong's face. Li Shantong couldn't help but widen his eyes. Qian Letian smiled and said: "This is what the general meant. I apologize and ask Mr. Li to accept it."
"Li Shantong stared and swallowed, raised his head and looked at Qian Letian, "Oh, the general is so polite! How can I be so embarrassed..."
"It should be, it should be, and I would also like to ask Mr. Li to give you more kind words when he returns!" "I will definitely do it! Don't worry, sir!"
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
