Chapter 120: It's Better to Be Ximen (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
The caravan of the Ximen family often stopped at the Chaijiazhuang, and the people on the village had long been accustomed to it, and a courtyard was specially prepared for the people of the Ximen family to live in when they passed by. Now Wu Haogu and Mi Youren live in this courtyard, and next door is Ximen Qing, who suddenly became a beautiful big sister.
Because Ximen Qing is a woman dressed as a man, some things used by women still have to be carried, and it is inconvenient for people to see them, so she is used to doing it herself and being self-reliant. When he got up early in the morning, he packed his luggage, packed a horse bag, and called a guard of the Ximen family to tie it to the horse, but he changed into a moon-white shirt and stomped back and forth in the courtyard, walked a few steps and stopped, glanced at the house where Wu Haogu and Mi Youren lived, sometimes laughed inexplicably, sometimes frowned, and sighed softly......
I don't know if it's because I'm tired from the journey, or if I talked about life and ideals with Mi Youren last night, and it was too late to talk. Sister Ximen walked around the yard for a long time, and she didn't see Wu Dalang push the door out.
Just when Sister Simon was a little disappointed and wanted to leave for breakfast, she heard the sound of the door ringing, and hurriedly turned her head to look, only to see a tall, handsome, elegant, and noble young man standing in the door.
It turned out to be Mi Youren. Sister Simon was a little disappointed...... She knows who the Xiaomi official is, Mi Fu's son, the general of Kaifeng Mansion, the son of the country, and the son of the country, who will be a big official in the future.
However, he is not Sister Simon's dish. And it is impossible for Sister Ximen to "eat" millet, millet is the son of a serious Kaifeng general, or the son of an official eunuch, and a prisoner of the country, so it can be said that one foot has stepped on the officialdom.
"Sister Simon." Mi Youren was very respectful to Ximen Qing, and he saluted when they met.
This is not something Ximen Qing can afford!
Although Ximen Qing's great-grandfather was a martial artist, her family is not a family of eunuchs, and she is a woman who "walks the rivers and lakes". How to be worthy of Mi Youren's gift?
Unless...... If she can marry Wu Haogu, she will be the master of Mi Youren and Song Huizong at that time!
When the time comes, it will be the Yanggu Ximen family, and they will be able to follow the light.
Of course, Ximen Qing still doesn't know that Wu Haogu is going to be the "art teacher" of His Royal Highness King Duan after returning to Kaifeng.
"Xiaomi official," Ximen Qing also hurriedly returned the salute, "Da Lang, he ......"
Mi Youren went out and closed the door lightly, and then said to Ximen Qing: "The teacher is still asleep." ”
Wu Haogu does not have the habit of getting up early, while Mi Youren has practiced some martial arts, so he is used to getting up early, no matter how late he sleeps, he can always get up early in the morning.
"Oh." Ximen Qing responded.
Mi Youren said again: "The teacher mentioned you yesterday, saying that you are sorry for taking care of you all the way, otherwise you would have lost your life." ”
"Really?" Ximen Qing's cheeks were a little hot, and his heart was pounding. "That's all fate, it's fate."
"Yes, you have a relationship with the teacher." Mi Youren continued to talk nonsense, "The road ahead is difficult, and the teacher hopes that you can accompany ...... all the way."
Wu Haogu never made such a request at all, but Mi Youren was too enthusiastic and wanted to find a good match for his teacher.
What the? What the?
Accompany you all the way? Is it going to be a lifetime? Is Mi Youren protecting Wu Dalang?
Thinking of this, Ximen Qing's cheeks were hot, his head was lowered, and he didn't know how to say anything.
Mi Youren said slowly: "...... Accompany him to Kaifeng Mansion. ”
How can this person speak and pant for breath?
However, Ximen Qing, who was a little disappointed, still agreed, "Well, I also have this intention, Hebei Road is not peaceful, and it is good to have more people walking together."
Besides, Second Brother Ma wanted to go to Kaifeng Mansion for a visit, and I happened to be a guide for him. ”
Ma Zhi really wants to go to Kaifeng Mansion to investigate, it is not easy for him to come out once, naturally not just to see the ancient side of Wu Hao, but also to investigate the national strength and people's livelihood of the Song Dynasty by the way, if possible, and then through the line of Wu Haogu to catch a few powerful people of the Great Song Dynasty.
Of course, he didn't know that Wu Haogu's path was as rough as that, and he could directly lead to Zhao Ji, the future official of the Great Song Dynasty......
"Okay, good," Mi Youren nodded again and again, "Second Brother Ma's skills are strong, if we can go to Kaifeng Mansion together, we will be safe on the road." ”
When Mi Youren spoke, his mind also turned away.
He knows what kind of character Ma Zhi is, he is a person with a big background and great ability...... What's more, Ma Zhi is truly "knowledgeable".
His family is one of the four major families of the Han people in Liao, and there are countless elders and brothers in the clan who are officials in the Liao court, so they naturally know whether the Liao State will really support Western Xia......
Such a character, if he is recommended to Prime Minister Zhang Dan, then with the merit of recommendation, he Mi Youren will immediately become an official.
"Yuanhui, who are you talking to?"
When Mi Youren was thinking in his heart about whether to get a half-official position quickly, Wu Haogu's voice came.
It turned out that Wu Haogu also got up, and when he was getting dressed, he heard Mi Youren talking to someone, so he opened the door in disheveled clothes. Then, a somewhat neutral, red-red pretty face appeared in Wu Haogu's eyes.
Ximen Qing ...... It looks so beautiful!
Wu Haogu glanced at the eldest sister who answered shyly, and while fastening a belt, he said, "The eldest sister can get up early." ”
"People who practice martial arts are used to getting up early...... Ximen said with a red face, "Da Lang, it's not too early, you can wash up and come to have breakfast, and after eating, the Chai family will escort us to set off." ”
"Escort?" Wu Haogu frowned slightly, "The front is not very stable?" ”
"It's a yellow flood ahead." Ximen Qing sighed.
Of course, the Yellow Flood Area is caused by the "Three Easy Returns"!
What is the worst thing the Northern Song Dynasty has done in more than a hundred years? I'm afraid that the "Sanyi Huihe" will be above the "Lianjin Annihilation of Liao".
It is because of the "fear of Liao" that the good end of the Hebei Plain is tossed to pieces, and there are yellow flood areas everywhere, and the yellow flood areas are not only difficult to navigate, but also full of thieves. It is the smuggling caravan of the Ximen family, and without the protection of the Chai family, it is unlikely to approach the Yellow Flood Area.
I don't know if there is a "ghost" in my heart, Wu Haogu and Ximen Qing had nothing to say for the next period of time.
After washing up, Wu Haogu and Mi Youren followed Ximen Qing to breakfast, and saw Ma Zhi, Lin Wancheng, Guo Jing, Liu Wuji and others in the dining hall.
They had all had breakfast, packed up, and were ready to hit the road.
Wu Haogu, Ximen Qing, and Mi Youren sat down around a square table, and the two old women of the Chai family served them cooking cakes and gruel. Wu Haogu lowered his head and reached out to get the cooking cake, but he pinched the back of his slippery hand, he hurriedly looked up and found that the back of this hand belonged to Sister Ximen!
Sister Ximen was also looking at Wu Haogu with a red face, her eyes facing each other, and they all showed complicated eyes.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, and you'll have to hurry when you're done." Mi Youren played a round for the two in a timely manner.
After breakfast, Lin Chong and Zhang Xizai came to report, saying that everything was ready, and the guards of the Chai family were also ready.
Wu Haogu took a breath and said to Ximen Qing: "Eldest sister, since everything is ready, then let's go and say goodbye to the old official Chai, and then go on the road." ”
Ximen Qing agreed, so he went to meet the old official Chai with Wu Haogu and Ma Zhi, and then went out of Chaijiazhuang, pulled the saddle on the horse, and whipped all the way west.
