"The little official you are talking about is the Prime Minister of Qin Dynasty, Li Si, right?"
Ding Yunyi nodded: "Yes, it is Li Si. No matter how future generations evaluate him, at least he resolutely left the place where he originally stayed and went to a strange environment. He was not afraid of hardships and faith, and finally created a great cause.
It is worth emulating by others. Mr. Xu, I have always believed that Taiwan is the most suitable place for you."
"Come on, come on, I am always a scholar. I am afraid of wolves in advance and tigers in hindsight. I look forward and backward, but I am far less decisive than an adult." A smile appeared on Xu Yuqing's face: "Don't worry, sir, I don't have anything to worry about anymore."
Ding Yunyi smiled slightly.
Xu Yuqing is a famous person. Now he has all kinds of talents under his command, but he lacks a "famous person" like Xu Yuqing. The appeal of a famous person often plays a significant role in such an era.
Zhang Pu brought himself a reputation among scholars, but what Xu Yuqing brought to Taiwan would be the arrival of a large number of real scholars, thus making Taiwan's foundation more solid. One day the imperial court will really move Taiwan.
, we also have to consider those scholars who gather in Taiwan.
In this sense, Ding Yunyi actually did not tell the truth to Wang Yue. In his eyes, Xu Yuqing was actually a "countryman" who could only do arithmetic, and was just a piece of horse bone bought for a thousand dollars.
, he does not need Xu Yuqing to exert much talent in Taiwan. The only role Xu Yuqing has to play is to be a "bait" to induce countless fish to swim to Taiwan, and Ding Yunyi is the fisherman who finally closes the net.
Xu Yuqing suddenly asked: "Have you ever heard of the story about Duke Huan of Qi recruiting country people who only knew how to do arithmetic?"
Ding Yunyi almost laughed. He had just told this story to Wang Yue, but he shook his head seriously at the moment. Xu Yuqing was a real person, so he told this story again that Ding Yunyi knew by heart.
Ding Yunyi just seemed confused and asked with a frown: "What do you want to say, sir?"
Xu Yuqing said seriously: "Since your Excellency wants to use me, please give me a good official position and reward me with a lot of gold, silver and jewels. Your Excellency is going to Suzhou. All the scholars from Jiangnan have gathered in Suzhou. Please read this in person."
Regarding my appointment, sir, just imagine that even people like me have been reused in Taiwan. So, isn’t Taiwan filled with talented people?"
Ding Yunyi was overjoyed. Xu Yuqing's words coincided with his own: "Mr. Yun Yi is a great talent. Yun Yi is suddenly enlightened. He must let all the scholars in Suzhou know how much I respect him."
The two people talked more and more happily, and soon they were only one day away from Suzhou. During the break, everyone sat together and ate the dry food they had brought with them. Xu Yuqing asked: "Sir, there is something I don't understand. Last year
I passed by Suzhou and saw a flag flying on the Suzhou city tower. There were seven words written on it, "The brave and loyal tiger guards". I knew that these tiger guards were elite soldiers under your command, but how did they appear in Suzhou? I also asked
I passed a few people, but they all said nothing."
Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "It's nothing. After I fought against Yingzhou in the past, a bandit that invaded Fengyang happened to arrive in Suzhou. At that time, I only had 200 riders, but there were 5,000 people. I defeated them with 200 riders.
I had five thousand thieves and killed two of their leaders. Suzhou magistrate Deng Muzhi was deeply afraid that the thieves would come again after I left, so he made a battle flag of mine and hung it in Suzhou to intimidate those bandits who tried to invade Suzhou again.
Let’s use the tiger skin as a banner.”
The people around him were both amused and admired.
It was unheard of for two hundred people to defeat five thousand thieves throughout the ages. Ding Yunyi said it lightly, but when he heard it in the ears of those women, he couldn't help but admire him and felt that there was nothing wrong in following this man.
A coachman who was also nibbling dry food not far away said at this time: "We drivers usually travel a lot east and west, and we can hear the name 'Ding Huben' everywhere. Once I took a guest to Liaodong.
In Liaodong, I also heard the story of the adults who entered and exited nine times among the golden captives..."
Everyone in the world talks about Ding Huben?
Liu Rushi looked at Ding Yunyi, and there seemed to be something inexplicable in his eyes.
It was a remote place. Ding Yunyi had a full stomach, but when he reached a distance, he relieved his hands and suddenly stood there, motionless. After a while, he walked over and sat down again as if nothing had happened.
He looked around and suddenly said in a low voice: "There are people around, there are always about thirty or forty people, carrying weapons, they are afraid of malicious intentions, they are just coming for us!"
Everyone was shocked by what he said. Wang Yue's face turned pale: "Is this a bandit?"
"It's peaceful around Suzhou. I haven't heard of any strong bandits." Although Xu Yuqing was also scared, he managed to speak with force.
"No matter who it is, they have bad intentions." Ding Yunyi narrowed his eyes and wondered, where could thieves of this scale come from near Suzhou? These people were armed and lying in ambush around them. They must have been prepared and were just waiting for the day to come.
After the blackout, take action again.
Could it be that you are here for yourself?
It's strange that I don't have any enemies here. Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and the like are too busy to take care of themselves, so it's impossible for them to send people all the way to Suzhou to assassinate me.
Although doubts arose in his heart, his face remained calm. Taoist Caoyi said hurriedly: "Why don't we leave now and reach Suzhou as soon as possible? They won't go into Suzhou city, right?"
"It's too late." Ding Yunyi shook his head: "If we escape now, the thieves will definitely take the opportunity to come out. I can't take care of them all, but it will cause us chaos."
At the moment, Ding Yunyi has become the backbone of everyone, and everyone has turned their attention to him. Ding Yunyi thought about it, and suddenly said to the coachmen: "Come on, brothers, you just praised me, I'll treat you to something to eat."
."
The coachmen gathered around with smiles, and Ding Yunyi suddenly whispered: "No one should speak..."
He told the story about the ambush around him, but the coachmen were not too panicked. They just thought they were robbers. Usually when encountering this kind of thing, as long as the coachman did not resist, the robbers would not hurt the coachman.
Ding Yunyi asked in a low voice: "Which one of you dares to ride my fast horse to Suzhou City and bring me a letter to Deng Muzhi, the prefect of Suzhou, to ask him to send someone to rescue him quickly?"
"I'll go." A young and bold coachman responded.
Ding Yunyi was overjoyed when he heard this: "As soon as you entered Suzhou City, you shouted all the way that Ding Yunyi, who protects Suzhou, is in trouble. I expect someone will take you to see Deng Muzhi. When you see him, tell him what happened here. He
Of course I know what to do. My horse is fast, and the thieves will not attack until night. If I move faster, I can wait for reinforcements."
"Sure." The young driver said cheerfully.
Ding Yunyi smiled: "Brother, you saved my life this time. When I get out of trouble, I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold."
The young coachman said: "Your Majesty, you underestimate me too much. I am from Shandong. I managed to survive to Nanjing during the famine years. You have survived countless lives in Shandong. I am just repaying you for the people of Shandong."
Ding Yunyi was greatly moved after hearing this. It turns out that if you save people today, they will save you tomorrow.
He handed the BMW Benxiao to the coachman. The young coachman only took the horse to drink water, quietly left the team, and reached a deserted place. He got on the horse and ran towards Suzhou...
"Miss Yue, I'm afraid you have to return the sword I gave you to me temporarily." Ding Yunyi said with a smile.
While Wang Yue went to get the sword from the carriage, Ding Yunyi warned carefully: "At night, all you need to do is form a circle around the carriage. Light up torches to help me fight. No matter what danger I encounter, you must not come out."
There are thirty or forty people on the other side, and there is only one Ding Yunyi. No matter how brave he is, how can he resist the enemy? Gu Hengbo said on the side: "Xiang Wen, you don't need to worry about us, just go ahead. You have a heavy responsibility, so you can't make any mistakes.
It’s best if we can bring reinforcements. If we can’t bring reinforcements, then we always know what to do..."
Xu Yuqing also said on the side: "Yes, sir, please leave quickly. I think those thieves want property. As long as we give it to them, will they still insist on taking our lives?"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple..." Ding Yunyi shook his head, looked around at the women, and suddenly smiled: "If I can't even protect my own woman and run away for my life, am I still a man? Don't worry.
, as long as I still have breath, I can’t let those thieves hurt a hair on your head!”
He said the words "If I can't even protect my own woman" without any care, Gu Hengbo and others were moved in their hearts. They all felt that if they could be by this man's side, there would be nothing to fear even if they died.
Liu Rushi's eyes flashed, this man was so manly, he only regretted that he didn't recognize him earlier!
Wang Yue came over with the sword "Dragon Tooth", and happened to hear these words. She handed the sword to Ding Yunyi, sat down next to him, and no longer worried about anything: "Sir, it is my honor to recognize you, Wang Yue.
.In the past, I only knew poems, songs, and pipa tunes. I never knew that there was such a strong-blooded man like you in the world. Today, whether I live or die, I will always be with you."
Gu Hengbo and Li Xiangjun looked at each other and smiled, with no fear in their expressions. Wang Yue's words expressed what they were thinking:
Life or death, I will always be with you!
Liu Rushi was dressed as a man, with a sword hanging on her waist. She held the hilt of the sword and said, "Sir, I have also learned swordsmanship for a few days. Let me kill the enemy with you."
Ding Yunyi glanced at her sword and smiled: "Miss Liu, don't take it seriously if I say something that won't please you. Your sword is just fine for showing off, but those so-called sword skills you learned
, but they are all dance skills. Real killing is completely different from what you think..."
Liu Rushi's face turned red. The man opposite him was a general who was about to attack with thousands of troops. What he said just now was really a trick.
Ding Yunyi touched the "Dragon Tooth" in his hand and spoke as if he were talking to an old friend of his: "Dragon Tooth, Long Tooth, they all say you will hinder the Lord, but you and I fight hand in hand, sharing life and death, no matter how many thieves there are,
What can you do to me? Today you and I are going to go on a killing spree again!"
The people who heard these words were filled with admiration and fear. Although the war had not yet started, they could already feel the bloody scene that was about to come.
"The murderer Ding Huben is the butcher Ding Yunyi; Ding Huben is unstoppable, and Ding Yunyi is the murderer! Huben is full of blood everywhere, and when the butcher comes there are mountains of corpses!" Xu Yuqing softly chanted: "I have been reading books for half my life, and I have seen nothing more than this.
These are just articles, but today I can see with my own eyes the scene of rivers of blood and corpses strewn across the fields, so happy, so happy!"
Taoist priest Caoyi glanced at her husband. He was usually quiet and elegant, but why did he say such bloody words today?
After Ding Yunyi told everyone what to pay attention to during the battle, he asked everyone to take a rest and left Gu Hengbo alone. After a while of silence, he suddenly said: "What if... what if I can't do it by then?"
Zhi, I, I will try my best to kill you first..."
He must do this, otherwise once these women fall into the hands of those thieves, the humiliation they receive will make their lives worse than death.
They are their own women. Their women can die, but they must not be insulted!
After Gu Hengbo heard this, not only was he not surprised at all, but he seemed to have expected that he would say this. He smiled sweetly: "I know that you are a hero. A hero's woman cannot be insulted by others, even if you are not
If you have time to kill me, I know what to do."
Ding Yunyi gently held her hand and smiled at her. If he could get such a woman, what else could he regret?
He suddenly said with pride: "But if they want to kill me, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Ding Huben is the murderer, Ding Yunyi is the butcher, I travel across the battlefield, how can I die at the hands of a few thieves today? Hengbo,
Just watch how your man kills the thief!"
Gu Hengbo's eyes were full of reverence, such a man, such spirit...
The sky gradually darkened, and the carriages were gathered around, but there was no movement at all from the direction of Suzhou. The women were in the middle of the carriages, and no one spoke, as if they were all waiting for something.
Outside the carriage, Ding Yunyi was sitting there alone. He lit a bonfire, held a bag of wine, and drank heavily. He sat there motionless.
The world-famous sword "Dragon Tooth" was right within his reach.
Gu Hengbo and the other women watched all this clearly. Gu Hengbo suddenly pointed to the top of the carriage: "We will go up there in a moment and see how he kills the enemy."
Her female companions nodded together.
They knew who "he" she was talking about was.
"The murderer Ding Huben, the butcher Ding Yunyi". Life or death is not actually the most important at this moment. What is important is that we can be together, life or death.
As long as the man outside is still breathing, he will fight to the death to protect his woman!
