Song Mingyue

Chapter 117
It was only the third day of Zhao Hao's wedding, and the imperial edict arrived.

Chao Fenglang of the sixth grade sounds very generous. Zhao Hao is only seventeen years old, and he is at the same level as the general judge of ordinary prefectures. Calculated in later generations, he is probably at the level of the deputy department.

It's just that the civil post is a false title, no position, no quota, and it's just a job with mixed wages.

Fang La's rebellion happened, but he still wants to let his nephew live in Bianliang and make such great achievements for the community. How can he be allowed to live in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time and not enjoy the wealth of Bianliang!
Zhao Ji's decree is very high-sounding, and it only means one thing, I will be an official for you, but you have to live in Bianliang and accept the surveillance of the officials. You, a son of the clan, are only 17 years old and escape like this. I don't worry about you being in Jiangnan. Afraid that you will make trouble in the future.

While Zhao Hao scolded MMP in his heart, in front of the imperial envoy, he was deeply grateful for the grace of the emperor, and vowed to repay it.

The disaster of Hua Shi Gang and the chaos of Fang La brought a huge shock to Zhao Hao's heart. The original idea of ​​living a happy life and eating and waiting to die has long since disappeared.

Settling in Bianliang was originally the result of his own arrangement.

A son must become famous and drunk, and if he wants to achieve great success, he must take advantage of his youth. After all, he is only seven or eight years away from the shame of Jingkang.

No matter how uneasy Zhao Shiyu and Xie Yun are, no matter how reluctant his newlywed wife Wang Xin is, he has to settle in Bianliang before the end of the year, otherwise he is afraid that he will resist the order and fail to obey, and the whole family will be unable to bear it.

Parting is for a better reunion.

The gloom and mist of parting shrouded the entire Zhao Mansion, but Zhao Hao's preparations for going north were also in full swing.

And Zhao Hao also took this opportunity to say goodbye to those who should say goodbye.

************
Ziming Garden.

When Zhao Hao walked through the long tree-lined path and came to the gate of the garden, his state of mind seemed to be slightly different from before.

When he came last time, he was white, neither an official nor a general, and he was also a happy bachelor. Now when he returns to Zimingyuan, he is already a sixth-rank official of the imperial court and a husband.

No matter what his status is, he can no longer be as chic and calm as before. That cute and flirtatious Mr. Pian Pian will never come back.

But, that warm feeling is still there.

Although the ten-mile peach blossom has faded, the human face and smile are still there.

It's just that when the two of them entered Ziming Garden together, they no longer walked side by side as in the past, but were half a shoulder behind.

From a distance, I heard the sound of reading aloud. The boys in the garden are still as happy and innocent as ever.

Even though it had been half a year since they hadn't seen each other, seeing Zhao Haolai, they didn't feel unfamiliar at all, just like last time, cheering and surrounded him, pestering him to tell a story.

The story of Monkey King making troubles in the Heavenly Palace last time only mentioned that after the monkey learned his skills, he was eunuch for half a year.

Now that I pick it up again, it is quite different from what I wanted to talk about at the beginning.

The Three Realms are chaotic, evildoers are rampant, sucking the blood of the people, and feeding on the people, the human world is full of evil spirits.

The gods in the heavens either fell asleep, or wandered around and never returned, or got drunk and passed out, or taught for many years.

There are those who take common people as food, those who rob common people's wives and daughters, those who seduce princesses and emperors, those who snatch other people's princesses as their wives, and those who want to eat the flesh of Tang monks... All kinds of evil deeds are beyond description.

Coupled with the fact that little ghosts, judges, and Hades are rampant, good people who don’t give money won’t be allowed to reincarnate, and wicked people who give money can avoid going to hell...

In the entire human world, mortals are precarious, their lives are in jeopardy, and their bones are thousands of miles away.

There was a monkey with great powers, surnamed Sun and named Wukong, who couldn't bear the world to become a ghost, so he resolutely raised the golden cudgel to defeat demons and defend the world.

Every time he fights, his strength will increase by one point.

He defeated the King of Hades and reorganized the commandments of the underworld; defeated the Dragon King and forced it to rain on the dry land; killed the Nantianmen, defeated Nezha and Li Tianwang; , approached the Lingxiao Palace; stole the Golden Elixir, stole the Laojun furnace and the Vajra Bracelet, and his mana increased greatly; finally defeated the Tathagata Buddha, who has boundless Dharma, and finally boarded the Lingxiao Palace, and ruled the Three Realms.

From then on, he rectified the Three Realms, eliminated demons, wiped out ghosts, and finally the Three Realms were peaceful, and the people of the Human Realm lived and worked in peace and contentment.

He felt something in his heart, and he spoke so miraculously that all the boys and ladies were fascinated by what they heard, and two or three hours passed before they knew it, and it was already sunset when Zhao Hao waved goodbye to the reluctant boys.

Yang Fang said: "The young master is about to go north. I don't know when he will return to the south of the Yangtze River. I will see you off."

"it is good!"

The two walked slowly along the tree-lined path, silent all the way.

"The son's story is very well told."

"Oh."

"Sun Wukong will definitely defeat all opponents and fulfill his long-cherished wish."

"I believe it too."

In the original book, Monkey King is not ranked among the top fifty in terms of combat power, but he stubbornly wants Monkey King to win.

Because, he is that Monkey King...

Seeing that he had reached the intersection of the tree-lined path, Zhao Hao suddenly turned around, looked at Yang Fang, and stood still.

The eyes of the two met, feeling something in their hearts, but they were speechless.

Suddenly, she felt as if warm water was flowing over her face. It was warm, soft, gentle, and very comfortable and cozy.

There was a look of surprise in her bright eyes, and she looked at Zhao Hao puzzled.

Zhao Hao smiled slightly and said, "Is there a merciless request?"

"My lord, it's okay to say."

Zhao Hao sighed and said, "Mr. Mei Lin, can you take off your veil so that I can see her beauty next time, even if I haven't met you for a while."

Yang Fang was stunned for a long time before she said resolutely, "Okay!"

The veil slipped from the ear, revealing her true face for the first time in front of Zhao Hao.

She stared closely at his eyes, wanting to see what kind of expression he would make when he saw her scarred face... In fact, she can accept any expression, even if it is extremely frightened, it is human Instinctive reaction.

However, she was disappointed.

With a warm smile in his eyes, Zhao Hao stared closely at her face, and softly praised: "It's so beautiful..."

As if she was being shocked by an electric shock, she couldn't help reaching out to touch her face... What she touches is smooth and tender skin, so soft that she can't touch it, and there is no trace of the rough feeling of the past.

In an instant, a feeling of wanting to cry came to her heart, she turned her head slowly, and said softly: "Thank you, Young Master."

Looking at that beautiful and tender face, Zhao Hao really wanted to reach out to hold it gently, stare at it carefully, and appreciate it carefully, but after all, he just thought about it in his heart.

"There will be a period later, take care!"

He bowed his hands to Yang Fang, turned and left.

Several horses rolled towards Jiangning City, and the sound of horseshoes gradually disappeared in the distance.

She stood motionless at the intersection of the tree-lined path, watching the disappearing figures of Zhao Hao and the others, as if in a daze.

When will you come again, we will smell the fragrance of peach blossoms together...

***************
As the sun was setting, Zhao Hao, Zhao Dian, Wu Song and others rode their horses and galloped along a section of Qixia Mountain, heading straight for Jiangning City.

At the corner not far from the entrance of the mountain pass, three cavalry suddenly appeared, standing side by side, blocking the mountain pass tightly.

Xi Yuyu~
Zhao Hao and the others looked startled, and hastily reined in their horses and stood up, while Zhao Dian, Wu Song and the others all drew their swords out.

The three people standing in front of them all covered most of their faces with bamboo hats, standing solemnly, full of murderous intent.

Seeing Zhao Hao and the others rein in their horses and stop, one of them dismounted first, and slowly lifted the front of the bamboo hat to reveal his true face.

"My lord, stay safe and sound!" The man bowed his hands to Zhao Hao and said with a slight smile.

Fang Qifo!
Zhao Hao quickly got off his horse and returned the salute.

Immediately afterwards, the other two also dismounted.

One is Fang Baihua, and the other is a Taoist priest in Taoist robes who is about forty years old—the Priest Qingmu, whom Zhao Hao called a must.

"I hope you can forgive me for not being able to come to congratulate you on your wedding day." Fang Qifo laughed.

"Good boy, good fortune is not shallow!"

With a coquettish laugh, a flexible and powerful hand patted Zhao Hao's shoulder, which made Zhao Hao jump up hastily.

Eldest sister, I need to change the habit of patting people on the shoulder... Last time you patted your left shoulder numb, can you make it symmetrical this time?

Everyone greeted for a while.

Fang Qifo said solemnly: "Fang came here today, and I have something to ask the young master."

Zhao Hao said urgently: "Brother Fang, but it's okay to say."

Fang Qifo said: "Master, this time he is going north to Beijing, I want to accompany Eleventh Sister and Daoist Qingmu."

Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, looking at Fang Baihua and Taoist Qingmu, his face could not help showing bitterness.Daoist Aoki said that he couldn't tame Fang Baihua, a fierce mare...

Fang Qifo sighed slightly: "Shenggong and the other brothers were escorted to Beijing, they will be killed sooner or later, and they will have to go to the earth in the future... I wanted to go to Bianjing in person, but I was afraid that the brothers on the Yuanshan side would be uneasy, so I missed it." You have to let Eleven Younger Sister go because it's a big deal for you, and you have to worry about it."

In the Bangyuan area, since Fang La and others surrendered, the mountainous area within a radius of a hundred miles has become uninhabited.

These 3000 people are the elite among the hundreds of thousands of rebels.

At this time, Fang Baihua said coldly: "Although in accordance with the will of the elder brother, the 3000 of us must follow your lead, but the three chapters of the contract between the eldest brother and the son, the son has only completed one of them, and he is not our master. ! This time the son is going north, I want to see the sincerity of the son, I want to know whether the blood of the elder brother will be shed in vain!"

In order to persuade Fang La to surrender, Zhao Hao agreed to Fang La's three conditions. Killing Zhu Xi was only one of them, and the real focus came later.

Although the three thousand elites were reserved for Zhao Hao in name, it is not Zhao Hao who can speak now, but Fang Qifo, Fang Baihua, Fang Shu and Fang Hao. The seven Buddhas are the main ones.That's why Fang Qifo didn't dare to leave the army horse lurking in the mountains, worried that Fang Baihua and Fang Shu's violent temper would cause trouble in the local area and expose the army horse early.

"it is good!"

Zhao Hao had no choice but to agree.

Fang Qifo's expression became respectful, and he said in a low voice: "There is enough grain in the mountains to last for a year or two, and now we have planted autumn grain, so we can be self-sufficient. We only need to send people into the city every month to buy salt and iron, etc. You don’t have to worry about things, military and horse livelihoods. The Shenggong left money worth over ten million yuan, which is hidden in a secret place, and it will help you in your great cause in the future.”

Zhao Hao didn't speak, but lightly clapped hands with Fang Qifo, and slowly said word by word: "The entrustment of Sheng Gong's life and death, Zhao will live up to it!"
