Chapter 671: Angry at the crown

In the afternoon, Wang Gui and Tang Huai came to Li Yanqing's mansion, Wang Gui heard that Li Yanqing had obtained a good pair of armor, and Tang Huai heard that Li Yanqing had obtained a hook and sickle.

The acquisition of old weapons is also a process of Taobao to some extent, some expensive weapons are stuffed in the homes of people who do not know how to do it, and when they take them out for money for the New Year, the value of these weapons is reflected.

When the old woman got the five hundred taels of silver, she was still dreaming, and she couldn't believe the fact that the few tattered belongings left by the old man had actually made her rely on for the rest of her life.

In addition to Li Yanqing, Han Shizhong also used 300 guan to buy a rare pair of two-handed swords and a pair of exquisite two-stone bows, and Cao Xing also used 1,000 guan to buy a precious sword.

"Lao Li, this armor is good, I wear it just right!" Wang Gui had already changed into armor, and he was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth when he stood in front of the big mirror.

"Look at it with this knife!" Li Yanqing threw the purchased war knife to him.

"I don't need a knife, I don't lack it, why don't I give it to the old soup!" Wang Gui glanced back at Tang Huai, who was sitting behind him.

"Give me what you don't want!"

Tang Huai pursed his lips, "What do you kid think of me?" ”

"Forget it, just as if I didn't say anything."

Tang Huai ignored him, and said to Li Yanqing with a smile on his face: "Lao Li, I heard that you got a hook and sickle gun?" ”

"Go! When did the nose become so smart? ”

Although he was disdainful of Tang Huai's cheekiness, Li Yanqing still took the hook and sickle gun and gave it to Tang Huai, "You try it!" ”

Tang Huai was overjoyed, he took it and checked it, the weight of fifty catties was just right for him, the barrel of the gun was very thin, although it was made of iron, it was full of tenacity, the tip of the gun was about one foot three inches long, it was a fine prism, and a thin barb stretched out from the neck of the gun, and the barb was also extremely sharp.

Tang Huai carried the gun to the courtyard and danced around, only to feel extremely comfortable, as if this gun was specially built for him, only one practice, and then he felt that the man and the gun were one.

"Lao Li, this gun has been recognized, and his surname will be changed to Tang in the future."

After practicing the gun, Tang Huai unceremoniously held the gun in his arms, as if he had become one with him.

"You two guys, if I get something good, you will snatch it, why don't you go to it yourself? Don't dare to spend your own money, right? Li Yanqing glared at the two of them.

Wang Gui smiled, "Didn't you leave you a knife?" ”

"you, the armor can be taken away, the gun must be kept, that's my collection."

"Lao Li, what you say is not kind, you use it to collect, but Lao Tang is used to go into battle to kill the enemy, one is for himself, the other is for the country, Lao Li, you are out of righteousness!"

Li Yanqing snorted, although he was extremely reluctant, but he also knew that he might not be able to get his things back, especially Tang Huai, holding the iron gun and looking left and right, the eyes of admiration were more like than the bride he married, and he didn't care about what he said, Wang Gui's righteousness and the like, he didn't take it to heart, it was conceivable that if he forcibly snatched the gun back, Tang Huai would have to break off his friendship with him.

Li Yanqing had no choice but to give up this beloved thing to him.

"Old Tang, tell you something!" Li Yanqing knocked on the table and said.

"What's the matter, you say?" Tang Huaichu got the treasure gun, he was in a good mood, and he could accept whatever Li Yanqing said.

"That's the case, after the year, the states of Shaanxi Road will recruit 30,000 township soldiers, I am a little worried that the states will not do anything if they take the money and grain subsidies, I want you to take an army to inspect the states and urge the states to recruit the township soldiers."

Tang Huai nodded, "No problem, I'll just go." ”

"I'm not done yet!" Li Yanqing continued: "You take two months to complete the transfer of the states, and then go to Qinfeng Road with His Royal Highness King Kang, and gather the 20,000 township soldiers on Qinfeng Road for a month of training, this matter is very important, and I will hand it over to you." ”

Tang Huai nodded silently, and he felt a heavy pressure on his shoulders.

At this time, next to Wang Gui's sneer! With a laugh, Li Yanqing turned his head and glanced at him, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"Lao Li, will Brother Tang leave in the afternoon?"

"I just said I'll leave in the next year!" Li Yanqing stretched his face and said.

Wang Gui still said with a hippie smile: "Then Brother Tang shouldn't think about it this year." ”

Li Yanqing also realized that he was too serious, and assigned Tang Huai a task more than 20 days in advance, he smiled dumbly, and said with a smile: "Let's go!" Let's go for a drink. ”

The three of them came to the Qujiang Restaurant, the tile shop is still crowded with people, it is very lively, they sat down in front of the window on the second floor, Li Yanqing asked for two pots of sake, a few plates of snacks to accompany the wine, it is now a non-war period, the army is allowed to drink a small amount of alcohol, but it is not allowed to get drunk, but even if you are drunk, the punishment will not be too heavy, hit 30 military sticks, and be grounded for a month.

"Lao Li, let's prepare for war desperately in Jingzhao Mansion, do you say the imperial court knows?" Wang Gui asked after drinking a glass of wine.

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Do you think Yang Suizhou and Ma Shan have nothing to do, will they write a report to the imperial court?" ”

"It won't be possible to write a report to the imperial court, but there must be a secret report to their master." Tang Huai pouted disdainfully on the side.

"Lao Tang is right, don't talk about others, even His Royal Highness King Kang will report to the Son of Heaven on a monthly basis, our every move in Jingzhao Mansion can't be hidden, it's just a little weird."

Wang Gui was puzzled by Li Yanqing's last sentence, "Lao Li, what do you mean by weirdness?" ”

"It's whether it's private or not, what we do in Jingzhao Mansion, whether it's Cai Jing, Wang Hao, Gao Yu, or even the official family, they all know it, but the court doesn't know it at all, everyone has their own thoughts, and they look at us coldly! I just can't figure out what they're thinking, so I say weird. ”

"Well said!" Wang Gui and Tang Huai praised in unison.

Tang Huai pondered for a while and asked: "I also agree with your analysis, but I don't quite understand, if the official family clearly knows what we are doing, but he doesn't interfere, what do you say is the reason for this?" ”

Tang Huai refers to Li Yanqing's training of township soldiers in a subsidized way, which is a taboo thing, and now he is openly buying old soldiers' armor, and the official family does not interfere, which really makes Tang Huai puzzled, Wang Gui also understood, he also looked at Li Yanqing, hoping that Li Yanqing could give an answer.

Li Yanqing picked up his wine glass and smiled slightly, "If I say that the official family actually feels the threat of the Jin Kingdom, do you believe it or not?" ”

Wang Gui and Tang Huai glanced at each other and shook their heads together, if even the Son of Heaven felt the threat of the Jin State, then the Song Dynasty should have prepared for war on a large scale a long time ago, and the Hebei side would not only deploy the box army, not even the forbidden army.

"Actually, the official family is not stupid, even if he surrendered to the Jin State from Western Xia, he also realized that the Jin State was not good, but the national policy of joining Jin to destroy Liao was too wrong, once the Jin State really invaded the south, he would have to make an edict against himself, do you understand what I mean?"

Some things can't be said too clearly, especially Li Yanqing's guilty edict, which has already been said to the substance.

Tang Huai pondered for a moment and said: "Yanqing is right, I guess this is the reason why the official family put King Kang in Jingzhao, acquiescing to our preparation for war, but not worrying, let his son watch us." ”

While the three of them were talking, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside, and someone shouted: "The army has smashed the music workshop!" The army smashed the music workshop! ”

Li Yanqing was stunned, looked outside, and saw a large mansion in the distance crowded with people watching the excitement, dozens of soldiers were holding a piece of wood and banging on the door, and a burly general next to him was full of anger, and the sword had been drawn out of its sheath, it was the commander Han Shizhong.

Li Yanqing frowned, what is Han Shizhong doing?

At this time, Wang Gui slapped his forehead suddenly, "I know, it must be for Liang Hongyu!" ”

Li Yanqing suddenly became interested, could it be that Liang Hongyu, who followed Han Shizhong, was in Jingzhao?

"Let's go! Let's take a look. Li Yanqing settled the account and walked briskly towards Lefang with Wang Gui and Tang Huai.

Li Yanqing also slowly understood later, Liang Hongyu is just a stage name, just like Li Shishi and Su Xiaoxiao, there are two Li Shishi in the capital, and Ma Shishi, Han Hongyu, Zhang Hongyu, etc., but this kind of stage name is generally a music prostitute, most of them sell their art and do not sell their bodies, saying that their background is relatively low, it does not mean that they have sold their bodies, but that their household registration status is relatively low, they belong to the music household, and their fate will not be too good, they are generally married to large families as concubines, even if they are married to musicians and other similar people.

At this moment, the door slammed open, Han Shizhong rode his horse and rushed in, and more than a dozen personal soldiers also rushed into the music square, Li Yanqing and the three of them were a step late, Wang Gui and Tang stomped their feet with hatred and rushed in.

Li Yanqing was not in a hurry, pulled over a small servant in the music workshop and asked, "Why did that general attack the music square just now?" ”
