The reason why Li Yanqing strongly persuaded the Tang Wang family to move south was also to give an explanation to the two good friends, of course, it was also for Tang Huai and Wang Gui to stand on the same line with him in the future, this kind of thing cannot be done at a time of crisis, it must be planned early, this time by sending a letter to visit the Wang family is actually to persuade the Wang family to go to Jiangxia together, but I didn't expect that the Tang Wang family was troubled by the current situation, and they both had the idea of preparing a way back, which was in his arms.

After saying goodbye to the Wang family, Li Yanqing went to Yue Fei's house again, he knew that Yue Fei's father was sick and his family was in difficulty, so he sent fifty taels of silver to the Yue family, but Yue Fei's parents refused to accept it, but in the end, they couldn't get rid of Li Yanqing's intentions, so they had to accept it.

When he came out of Yue Fei's house, it was almost noon, and Li Yanqing came to the Yongjiqu Wharf in Tangwang Village, where there was a tavern, and he remembered that the fish here was cooked well.

"Officials are welcome to come and eat!" The bartender greeted him warmly.

"Is there any fresh fish?"

"Yes! The carp that was just delivered, caught from the ice hole, fresh and fat, not I blow, the roasted carp in the sauce in the small shop is a must, and everyone who has eaten it applauded. ”

"I know, bring me a fish, a few side dishes, a plate of hot meat buns, and a pot of wine, and ask for sake from your cellar."

"That's precious, it costs fifty cents a pot."

Li Yanqing threw three coins of broken silver to him, "The rest will be rewarded to you!" ”

The bartender suddenly smiled, "The villain went back and fed you the horses!" ”

Li Yanqing tied his horse to the door of the store, and the bartender invited Li Yanqing into the store to sit down, and brought a brazier.

Due to the freezing of Yongji Canal, the tavern business is very light, there are only two or three customers, all of whom are from the village, and there are no foreign merchants at this time.

After a while, the bartender brought a few plates of cold game dishes and a plate of steamed buns that had just come out of the cage, and brought a pot of wine, "The fish is burning, please wait a while, the official will drink first!" ”

Li Yanqing ate two buns to cushion his stomach, and then poured himself a glass of wine, at this time a fragrant wind wafted from behind, Li Yanqing turned around, only to see a very beautiful young girl standing behind him, medium figure, round and jade, a pair of big eyes are particularly moving, wearing a good fox fur jacket, and the lower body is a big red pleated thick skirt.

"Are you..... Rice balls! ”

Li Yanqing suddenly recognized her, Tang Huai's sister Tang Yuan'er, her appearance has changed a lot from before, but Li Yanqing recognized it at a glance with those big dexterous eyes.

Tang Yuan'er pouted, "Why did you come back alone, Agui?" ”

"He's going to take part in martial arts, you know."

"Of course I do! Why didn't he write to me? Tang Yuan'er looked very unhappy. She heard her grandfather say that Brother Qing sent a letter to Agui, but he didn't think to write a letter to himself.

Li Yanqing laughed, "Of course there is a letter for you, it's just a message, if you want to listen, sit down." ”

Tang Yuan'er suddenly smiled, hurriedly sat down opposite Li Yanqing, hooked the brazier with his foot, poured himself another glass of wine, and asked expectantly, "Say it!" What message? ”

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "Ah Gui told me that he went to take the martial arts exam this time completely for you, and I don't know what he means by this." ”

Tang Yuan'er's eyes lit up, a blush appeared on her pretty face, and she asked a little shyly, "Did he really say that?" ”

"Actually, I know what it means, I'm just waiting to drink your wine!" Li Yanqing couldn't help laughing.

Tang Yuan'er really couldn't sit still, so she was so ashamed that she got up and ran, walked to the door and remembered something, and threw a small leather bag to Li Yanqing, "Brother Qing helped me bring this bag to Agui, thank you!" ”

After speaking, Tang Yuan'er ran away, the pace was unusually brisk, Li Yanqing looked at the leather bag, it should be a letter inside, and an embroidered handkerchief, Li Yanqing shook his head with a smile, and put the leather bag into the horse bag.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside, "No! It's all given to you, what about the other guests? ”

Li Yanqing took a look, only to see that there were many people outside, and it seemed that many people had come, covering his horse, Li Yanqing was a little uneasy, got up and walked out of the tavern.

I saw more than a dozen people, young and old, who looked like a family, and two donkey carts, filled with pots and pans, as if fleeing.

I saw an old man negotiating with the bartender, "It's not that I don't give money, you just do it again." ”

"We only make a dozen cages of steamed buns every day, and the people in the village come to buy them every day, and the guests are fixed, so you can buy a few cages, but you can't buy them all."

Li Yanqing asked with a smile: "Where is the old man from?" ”

"We came from Weizhou in the south, and there was chaos there, so we had to come to Xiangzhou to join our relatives."

"Is there chaos in Weizhou?"

"Liangshan bandits!"

Li Yanqing was slightly stunned, "What did the old man say?" ”

"This official doesn't know yet! Thousands of people in Liangshan attacked Liyangcang, and many people died, which made the people of Weizhou panic, when will this chaos be the end! ”

The bartender couldn't resist the old man's repeated pleas, and finally sold them all the buns, and the group continued north along the Yongji Canal.

Li Yanqing returned to his table, very strange in his heart, Liangshan Army actually killed Weizhou, Liyang County is a transit granary, Hebei two roads of official grain must be transported to Liyang Cang, and then transferred to Bianjing, this time their northern expedition to Western Xia grain is also transported from Liyang Cang.

But the problem is that it is winter, the Yellow River is frozen, and the waterway is impassable, even if Liyangcang is captured, how can the grain be transported away? How much food can a few thousand people take away? If they need food, they can attack the city near Liangshan, and travel thousands of miles to attack Liyangcang, which seems to be more than worth the loss!

If the Liangshan army wanted to follow the example of the Wagang army of the Sui Dynasty to open a warehouse and release grain to relieve the people, there is no famine, and there are no hundreds of thousands of disaster victims waiting to be fed, and the people of Weizhou and Xiangzhou are not short of food, so this will not be effective.

Then for what reason did the Liangshan army attack Weizhou Liyangcang?

Li Yanqing was puzzled, and at this time, the bartender brought the hot roasted fish in sauce, but Li Yanqing had no appetite.

He was a little worried in his heart, after all, Liyang County was only one hundred and fifty miles away from Tangyin County, this distance was too close, and Li Yanqing felt an inexplicable danger.

He hurriedly ate and got up and walked towards Tangwang Village, as the head of the Intelligence Department, he has a natural sensitivity to all kinds of information, Li Yanqing ran into Tangwang Village, and saw Tang Lian coming from a distance.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Outside the old staff, I just got a news that the Liangshan army is currently haunting the Weizhou area, and for safety reasons, it is best to avoid the old staff outside these days." ”

Tang Lian hurriedly said: "I was also about to go to Wang Yuanwai, the Tang family sent a pigeon letter from the inn in Liyang County, saying that the Liangshan army was attacking Liyang Cang, do the petty officials think they will hit Tangyin?" ”

"It's hard to say, even if the main force doesn't come, it's likely that a small group of bandits will come to harass, Liyang County is too close to us, it's better to be careful."

"Alright! I listened to the advice of the petty officials, let's go to the county seat to avoid a few days, I'll go to see if Wang Yuanwai wants to go together, or let's go with the petty officials! ”

Li Yanqing smiled and shook his head, "Thank you to the old man, I don't have anything to worry about, if the Liangshan bandits really kill, I can also avoid it." ”

"Alright! Beware of yourself. ”

The two broke up, and Li Yanqing urged the horse to gallop in the direction of Lushan Town, which was still bustling and lively as usual, and students who came out to eat and shop could be seen everywhere.

Passing by a grocery store, he suddenly heard someone calling to him, "Yanqing! ”

As soon as Li Yanqing turned around, he saw the patriarch Li Zhen coming out of the grocery store, he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, led the horse forward and asked with a smile: "Why is the second uncle here?" ”

"I've come to buy something, I heard you came back in the morning, but I couldn't find you."

"I'm going to Tangwang Village, send a letter to Wang Gui, is there anything wrong with the second uncle?"

"I have a personal matter that I would like you to help with."

"What's the matter?"

"We'll talk as we go."

Li Zhen rode on the donkey, and the two walked towards Li Wenzhuang together, Li Zhen sighed and said, "It's my family's Guangzong's business." ”

"Erlang?"

Li Zhen nodded, "He will come out of the state early next year, and I want him to take the Taixue exam." ”

Li Yanqing didn't say anything, he knew that Li Zhen wanted to ask him for help, he must have wanted to ask himself to help Li Erjin Taixue, but that kid has not been a student since he was a child, even if he entrusted him to let him enter Taixue, can he keep up with his studies?

Li Zhen added: "This time he wants to study, originally your father asked him to help, but he himself wants to study for a few more years, since he has this heart, of course I, as a father, must fully support it." ”

"What about Saburo?"

"Yaozu is still studying in the state! But he doesn't want to study, he must want to do business, and I'm going to hand him over to your father in two years. ”

Li Yanqing thought for a while and said, "I can't guarantee that he will definitely be able to enter Taixue, I can only say that I will do my best!" ”

Li Zhen was overjoyed, "Then thank you!" ”

After a short time to walk to the entrance of the village, Li Zhen still had to go to Qianshan Village, and the two broke up at the entrance of the village, at this time, Li Yanqing suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly shouted: "Second uncle, I just got the news that Liangshan bandits are haunting Weizhou, be careful!" ”

Li Zhen had already walked away, and he laughed from a distance, "I've long been used to it, Weizhou is still far from us!" ”
