Chapter 132 Long live my emperor (19)
There are two people in charge, one is responsible for literature and the other is responsible for martial arts.
Within two years, Huxiaozhai developed into one of the most powerful bandit camps in Changxing County.
It also attracted the attention of government officials, especially Qi County.
Because the bandit camp was built near Qi County, people passing by would always be robbed.
Several surrounding counties have strong opinions.
Qi County Magistrate Yang Su was troubled by Huxiaozhai. He couldn't find their lair, and they didn't rob in one place.
He still sought help from an outsider and was able to trick Gao Hu, but unfortunately Gao Hu's martial arts were not good enough and he finally let the man escape.
In the past two days, the prefect of Changxing County also issued an order, ordering the Qi County government to eliminate this bandit camp.
A low pressure spread in the government office. Yang Su kicked the chair over and said angrily: "Don't I want to wipe them out?!"
"You don't send any soldiers, don't come up with any ideas, don't give any money, and you just let me suppress the bandits?"
"He's just a small county magistrate..."
Thinking of something, Yang Su became even angrier.
If it weren't for that bastard Yongding Hou who had conspired against him, how could he be suppressed by a mere county governor now? What a shame!
Yang Su was so angry that his beard was shaking. Suddenly, a servant came in from outside with his head lowered.
He reported quietly, "Sir, His Royal Highness the Prince of Xiqing is hosting a banquet and invites you to a small gathering tonight."
Yang Su's expression changed, and he spoke after a long while.
"Shower and change clothes."
……
Tiger Roar Village.
After traveling for so many days, Nan Yue finally had a sip of hot tea.
The boss Gao Hu bandaged the wound again and sat there with a ferocious look.
The second in command, Zuo Yi, had a softer expression, but the smile on his face looked forced.
As for the third in command, he was unable to move for a moment and was still lying on the bed.
Nan Yue seemed to be the most relaxed one. She sat in the main seat without any hesitation, crossing her legs in a rogue manner, looking more like a mountain king than Gao Hu.
The tea in the village was not very good, it could even be said to be unpalatable, but Nan Yue drank it without even changing her expression.
Zuo Yi finally spoke up and said the first sentence, breaking the deadlock in the room, "I thought that the nobleman from Chaoge was not used to drinking this kind of coarse tea."
"Tea doesn't have to be good, as long as it quenches your thirst." Nan Yue took another sip and curled her lips.
“I’m not picky.”
Zuo Yi paused, looked at her, and said in a deep voice, word by word: "I advise you, Sir, to drink some good tea. This coarse tea is really not worthy of you."
Nan Yue gently stroked the rough teacup with her fingertips, narrowed her eyes slightly, and sighed, "What a pity, I have no choice."
She put the empty cup on the table and said, "Just like people."
Gao Hu still looked fierce, but there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Why are the two chatting over tea? Shouldn't they talk about what happened today?
Why did the atmosphere suddenly change?
Never mind, the second brother is smart, he just needs to stand on his side.
Fortunately, his fierce appearance successfully concealed his emotions.
444 was furious. It hated listening to this kind of conversation! It didn't understand!
Liuliu is just the opposite. From the moment the host came into this world, its blood boiled.
Zuo Yi's body stiffened and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
Yes, since he came to the village, they had no choice.
But if he keeps pressing on and doesn't let anyone in the village go, he may have a way to deal with him.
He knew Yang Su's affairs very well...
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense again, the young man suddenly sat up straight and asked, "Do you want to be bandits for the rest of your life?"
When this question came out, even the boss was stunned for a moment.
Zuo Yi smiled sarcastically, "What else?"
Since they entered the mountains, they have been the target of the government's extermination. He has never thought about doing anything else in his life...
"If I'm guessing correctly, you haven't been open for business for a long time, and the government has already noticed you..." Nan Yue smiled and asked directly, "If this continues, can you support so many people?"
"I told you, you have no choice." Without waiting for their answer, Nan Yue said faintly: "Either follow me and do something big, or...just stay here and wait to die."
Zuo Yi's pupils trembled and he struggled internally.
Nan Yue was not in a hurry. She leaned back in her chair with a faint smile on her lips.
half an hour.
Zuo Yi picked up the teapot and poured her a cup of tea himself, "My lord, please."
He took a gamble.
Nan Yue's smile deepened. Yes, this Zuo Yi was smarter and more sensible than she thought.
……
at the same time.
Yang Su had already gotten off the carriage and arrived at the venue where the King of Xiqing was holding a banquet.
The person who was assigned to greet him immediately came over, "Master Yang, you are finally here. The master has been waiting for you for a long time."
After hearing this, Yang Su's anger over the previous bandit suppression incident subsided a lot, and he followed the others in...
King Xiqing has just turned forty this year. He is wearing a gorgeous robe and looks energetic.
When he saw Yang Su, he said, "Master Yang, you have kept me waiting for so long!"
Yang Suyi bowed his hands and saluted, then explained: "I have kept you waiting for a long time, but I have something important to do. In addition, you invited me, so I was extremely nervous. I took a bath and changed my clothes for a long time before coming here."
"Nothing, nothing." King Xiqing waved his hand, not caring at all, "Take a seat."
"Today is just a small banquet. We are all family, so Lord Yang doesn't need to be restrained," he added.
"Here."
Yang Su responded. As expected, they were all his own people. Apart from the King of Xiqing who sat at the main seat at the top, there were one or two of the King of Xiqing's confidants. When they saw him, they all nodded in a friendly manner.
After he sat down, he discovered that there was an empty seat opposite him, near the main seat.
He thought he was the last one to arrive, but he didn't expect...
After waiting for a while, the person on the other side still didn't come.
He asked curiously, "Who else hasn't arrived yet?"
King Xiqing opened his mouth and was about to answer, but suddenly he saw something and laughed, "He's here."
The banquet was held in the villa of King Xiqing, which was quiet and spacious, and the banquet hall was also large.
At this time, the door of the palace opened wide.
There was a pleasant tinkling sound, knocking out a rhythmic sound.
The visitor was covered in moonlight, strolling leisurely in the garden, elegant and noble.
He was wearing a light blue gown with cloud and crane patterns, which looked particularly beautiful in the light. He had a green jade pendant on his waist, the jade was of a warm and smooth texture.
He was wearing a moon-white cloak with a fur collar, his long raven-blue hair was half tied up, and his white jade crown was carved with delicate patterns.
As they got closer, the light shone on the man and his features became apparent.
He was very young, with a sickly pale complexion, beautiful narrow eyes that were slightly upturned, and long, thick eyelashes that made it impossible to tell his emotions when he lowered his eyes.
A small red mole under the eye.
White jade has flaws, but this tiny flaw makes people even more bewitched.
His lips were pale and he had a tall figure.
The scenery is so beautiful and the moon is so bright, so beautiful that it is unparalleled in the world. People who see him can't help but think of two words.
"Hahaha Huaian, you are finally here." King Xiqing obviously valued the young man who came late, and his expression was much happier than when he saw Yang Su.
"Sorry for the long wait." The man named Huai'an said in a calm tone. He coughed twice and seemed to be not feeling well.
"You don't have to wait for me."
Ahem, the male protagonist finally arrived...
