The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Jia Cong had just woken up that day, when a porter came to his door and said that there was a letter from someone from a real distance.Jia Xu frowned and said, "Is it such a coincidence?"

Jia Cong said, "Don't worry about him, see you as soon as you see him." He ordered someone to invite him in.

Seeing this person enter the outer courtyard through the window, Jia Cong knew at a glance that he was not a porter, but a warrior.Chen Ruijin immediately said: "The little thief who led me out that night was disguised by him." Jia Cong nodded.

The man came in and bowed his back and gave a slap: "Mr. Jia!"

Jia Cong cupped his hands and said, "Dare to ask this general's name? Your demeanor is obviously not a porter, and you don't pretend to be like one at all."

The man chuckled and straightened up: "Mr. Jia is well-deserved of his reputation. Do you recognize me?"

Jia Cong looked at him carefully: "Did the general come to help me dismantle the Wuming Temple on Qingcheng Mountain the day before yesterday?"

"Good eyesight!" the man said, "At that time, I pretended to be a peasant and mixed in. I wore an extra set of common people's clothes on my body, and wanted Taoist Xuancheng to change into a fool. Who knew that he was so upright that he refused to change; then The clothes were finally given to Daoist Qing Xiao. He doesn't know kung fu, and he can't escape at all, so I wasted all my efforts."

"Oh, you belong to Fang Xiong." Jia Cong nodded and said, "But Qing Xiao said that Zhen Yuan is not with you."

"It's really not from the same group." The man said, "We don't know where he came from. At first, we thought he was a reclusive expert, but we didn't think he was a lackey of the court."

Jia Cong pursed his lips: "Huh? How do you know he is from the imperial court?"

"If it wasn't someone from the imperial court, why would you order Mr. Ding and Taoist Xuancheng to test whether Mr. Jia will stand on his own?"

"Oh, that's right." Jia Cong said with a smile, "So you plan to sell him for money, that's really wise."

The man sighed: "In an instant, the sea is changing, and the others can't care about it."

Jia Cong said seriously: "I'm praising you, really. Is this general here to discuss business with me?"

The man said: "'Women and children are innocent, and they have no strength to contend with the prince. It doesn't matter whether they can be saved or not. If he is willing to come to discuss with me, I will give him an idea to try. He threatened me and I won't take this set ’ I happened to be sitting downwind and heard it.”

Jia Cong frowned: "When I said this, the strong men hadn't come yet."

The man said: "A few have come, and I'm one of them." After a pause, "Since Zhenyuan said that he wanted to use a beauty trick to win over Mr. Jia, I knew he had other motives, and he definitely didn't come to help us." The man sneered and said, "He would use Miss Fang's family as a bait, how can we adults be in his eyes? How can ordinary monks come up with such an idea? But he has a lot of mouth, and Taoist Xuancheng actually let him coax him. "

Jia Cong's heart moved: I don't think this beauty trick is a really far-fetched idea.What this person said was, how could an ordinary monk come up with such an idea as a beauty trap?In his early years, this Zhenyuan was probably just like a monk, playing in the green forest. "In fact, I also guess that he used to belong to the imperial court. It's just that there is no imperial court now, unless he belongs to another prince. However, he has lived in seclusion in Qingcheng Mountain for decades." Jia Cong said, "If it is someone from another prince, why? Live in the territory of King Shu?"

The man said: "I don't know if Bao Buqi belongs to the Supreme Emperor. Besides, the court is chaotic, who knows who buried whom in whose territory?"

Jia Cong shrugged: "It's true. The general is really here to discuss business? What's your name? You must have a title, right?"

The man said: "Lord Fang is kind to me. Since he suffered, I will change my surname to Fang."

"Oh, well, hello, General Fang." Jia Cong said indifferently, "Does General Fang know where Zhenyuan is?"

The general said with a smile: "I don't know about this meeting yet. I have to ask Mr. Qiu to set up a game to lure him out."

"It's not difficult."

"Mr. Jia must have a way to rescue the women and children of the Fang family?"

Jia Cong thought for a while and said, "Now that the King of Shu is in power and has feuds with the Fang family, he keeps the women and children of the Fang family. One is for the sake of fame, and the other is to fish and lure you people. It is wrong to save them by white means. Impossible, only the method of green forest."

"Dare to ask what is the method of green forest."

Jia Cong smiled: "It seems that you, Mr. Fang, are really an official. Don't you know how to use Lulin's method? That's all, you help me find Zhenyuan, and I will help you rescue people. General Fang don't have to suspect that I am bragging, such an idea I have the ability."

General Fang looked at him and asked, "Mr. Jia really helped the King of Shu because of the Seven Yin Formation?"

"Of course not." Jia Cong said, "I went to investigate the tunnel because of the Seven Yin Formation, and I helped the King of Shu because he sent troops abroad. To me, those who fight abroad are good people, and princes and generals who fight abroad are good. My lord, good general. King Shu, King Yan, King Wu, King Liao, King Nan'an, King Beijing, including Lu's foreign relative Liu Tong, I will help whoever goes abroad. If General Fang leads the rest of the Fang family to I will also help you in foreign land acquisition."

General Fang thought about it: "Mr. Jia is afraid that the king of Shu will have an accident, and the troops of the Kingdom of Shu in Nanyang will change."

"That's right." Jia Cong nodded and said, "The King of Shu is a general prince, who fought in war; his son may not have such energy. Now Nanyang has made me a number of princes, generals, and pirates. If Shu withdraws The situation in Nanyang will be chaotic. Nanyang is an important seaway for Westerners, and business travel, troop transport, and supplies are extremely useful. In case the Westerners make a comeback in Nanyang, even if Fang Xiong’s corpse is broken into thousands of pieces, it will not make up for the overall situation. If you can’t hand in the job, Fang Xiong will become a sinner forever.”

General Fang asked casually, "Who does Mr. Jia want to report to?"

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Would you believe me if I said it was the Jade Emperor?"

General Fang looked at him carefully for a long time, and said: "Forget it, it has nothing to do with us anyway."

"Isn't it?" Jia Cong took a sip of the tea ceremony, "It's not good to trade fairly and get what you need."

General Fang suddenly asked: "It is rumored that there is a SHIELD in the green forest, and they are also from outside the world. Whoever gives the money can do business with anyone. I don't know if you are with Mr. Jia?"

"They once lured me into a gang. It's just that I'm bigger than them, so I'm not interested." Jia Cong looked up at General Fang, "Some things are beneficial to many parties, and an alliance is more suitable than a gang. For example, in the year when the world was divided, As far as I know, S.H.I.E.L.D. has made as much money as the past year in one month. If the Fang family intends to go abroad to rob, we can also cooperate."

"Is the division of the world good for Mr. Jia?"

"Based on the Supreme Emperor's temperament, does General Fang think that he will send troops overseas? His eldest son, King Lu, is incompetent, and his second son, King Chen, is the keeper of his career. He will inevitably wipe out the ambitious princes like King Yan and King Shu."

General Fang smiled and said: "No wonder people in the imperial court dislike Mr. Jia." Jia Cong smiled.General Fang said, "I know there is an old man named Tian Qi who is very important to Zhenyuan."

"How does General Fang know?"

General Fang said: "A few days ago, I heard him sigh 'that old Tian Qi' by himself, and his expression was different from usual." He glanced at Jia Cong, "Mr. Ding saw at a glance that Mr. Jia is in love with that Chen Siniang .”

Jia Cong shivered: "You mean, this man from afar is a broken sleeve?"

"It doesn't look like much." General Fang said, "It's true anyway."

Jia Cong nodded: "Okay. If we catch Zhenyuan with this method, we will save the women and children of the Fang family." Nai stretched out his palm.

General Fang laughed, gave him three high-fives, and left.

Jia Cong hurriedly turned back to look for Jia Xu, and asked, "Who is this Tian Qi, does Uncle Wu know?"

Jia Xu thought for a while and said, "Could it be that they are the three thieves of Xinglin?" He said, "In the early years when our dynasty was founded, there were three thieves, all of whom were named after medicinal materials. The first name was Tian Qi, and the other two were called Wen Yuan. And Shi Jueming. No one knows the origin of these three people, and they disappeared without a trace. When I was young, I secretly checked it out of curiosity. They were originally from the green forest. There are no files left by the government."

Jia Cong thought: "Since he is a big thief, how come there are no files left? Unless those files have been cleared. Fifth Uncle, could a monk in the capital, Zhenming Zhenyuan, be the Three Thieves in Xinglin? It seems to be a child of the Situ family."

Jia Xu blurted out: "Situ Chou!"

"Who?"

"The late emperor's generation is ranked seventh, and his biological mother and the late emperor's mother are sisters." Jia Xu said, "Situ Chou was a rich prince who accomplished nothing and died young of drunkenness."

The corner of Jia Cong's mouth twitched: "Sure enough, he is somewhat similar to Situ Pan. Wasn't Situ Pan also a 'king of idleness' in his early years? It's just that the Supreme Emperor is much more incompetent than the previous emperor, so Situ Pan had no choice but to come out to help him. If the Supreme Emperor is capable enough, Situ Pan Pan is afraid that he will be 'leisure' for the rest of his life."

Jia Xu couldn't help nodding his head: "Brother helps you to go down the river and mountains, but you don't see him. That's the true light, Shi Jue's light. If it's really far away, I'm afraid it's Wen Yuan."

Jia Cong said: "Whether it's true or not, let's try it." Nai smiled and whispered a few words to Jia Xu, causing Jia Xu to slap him on the forehead: "Stinky boy!" .

They stepped up their search to seize Zhenyuan, and at the same time let the rumors out that there was a fat old monk who went to Qingcheng Mountain to inquire about Zhenyuan, the evil way, and was interrogated by the soldiers who stayed there waiting for a rabbit. .This is just great.Originally, it was Taoist priests who patted the flowers and set up the Qiyin formation, but this man named Tian Qi dragged the monk into the water all of a sudden, and the benefactors suddenly became more stingy.

A few days later, he said that the old monk, named Tian Qi, kept claiming that he was not looking for Zhenyuan, but an old friend named Wen.Qiu Liang believed in this monk, but Jia Cong refused to let him go.Because of Jia Cong's great reputation and Qiu Liang's many years in the Kingdom of Shu, disputes arose among idlers on the street: some said that Mr. Jia was a man from heaven, and he was sure he could not be wrong; I'm afraid Mr. Jia wronged the old monk.When there is a debate about everything, it spreads several times faster than usual, and the matter spread out from Chengdu in the blink of an eye.

On the other side, the Taoist priest who guarded the candles in the Yuanchen Hall of Qingyang Palace secretly entrusted a little beggar to look for Chen Ruijin, begging to restore Qingyang Palace's reputation.Jiaxu's people checked, and it turned out that this person's surname was Liao, and his Taoist name was Shouping. He was originally a child of a poor family near Qingyang Palace.Because of his huge appetite, the family couldn't afford to support him, so he was sent to practice in a Taoist temple so that he could have enough food.I have never practiced martial arts, but I am born with strength.

Jia Cong praised: "For Bai Yangshouping to grow so big, Qingyang Palace is a good job." Then he went to discuss with Qiu Liang, only saying that Qingyang Palace was deceived by Zhenyuan, thinking that he was a fast arrester of the imperial court.Jia Cong made up a well-organized story for Qiu Liang to tell.

Qiu Liang smiled and nodded at him: "This matter is easy to handle. Nowadays, the people hate monks and Taoism, and the prince is not safe."

Jia Cong said: "Just ask the prince to go to the Qingyang Palace to pay homage to the Sanqing, which can be regarded as rectifying their names. Don't ruin the reputation of such a conscientious Taoist temple."

"You go to see the prince yourself."

"also."

Jia Cong really ran to see the king of Shu, and troubled him to choose an auspicious day to go to Qingyang Palace to cut the ribbon.The king of Shu readily agreed.Nai said: "The old aunt, I have already taught her a lesson; Ding Wangji will not get well in the future, but I still need him right now."

Jia Cong frowned and said, "It's fine for the two of them, but they are like kittens and puppies. Even if they scratch it, it's not such a big deal. It's just that the root cause of this matter is not small. Prince, since ancient times, it has been indispensable to seize the heir. Competing for talents because of seizing the heirloom is also very tight. How can you be aboveboard! What kind of ability is it to attack a woman? Tai Shigong said that for those who use sex to deal with others, when their sex fades, they will fall in love, and if they fall in love, they will be gracious. This way It's not right."

The king of Shu sighed: "If you have many children and grandchildren, you can't take care of them anymore."

Three days later it was an auspicious day, and the king of Shu went to Qingyang Palace to pay respects to the Sanqing.The presiding priest personally came to the door to greet him.Jia Cong was naturally among them.He found Daoist Shouping among the Taoist priests and nodded to him.Priest Shouping nodded slightly in return.

All the Taoist priests chatted and played for a long time, and the king of Shu went to the back of the Qingyang Palace to relax.When he arrived in front of the Yuanchen Hall, the presiding Taoist pointed out: "The one here is Doumu Yuanjun." The King of Shu nodded slightly and entered with his hands behind his back.After paying homage to Lord Doumu Yuan, the King of Shu turned around and saw a big hole in the east corner, and said with a smile, "This is the cellar?"

The king of Shu was inevitably curious, so he ordered people to light the lanterns, and he wanted to go down and have a look.Qiu Liang first sent a few people down to light the way, and when he saw the light from above, he led the king of Shu down.The King of Shu had just walked two steps, when he suddenly heard the sound of wind in his ear, he shouted "Not good!" as if he was flying into the air.

The king of Shu was so blinded by the fall that he hadn't recovered yet when he heard someone sneer and say, "Take Tian Qi for your lord!" ,you……"

The communication was chaotic and fast, Qiu Liang rushed down to the cellar before he understood what was going on.I saw the king of Shu lying on the ground, not knowing what to do. A soldier was standing with a western gun. Four or five soldiers and several lanterns were lying on the ground in a mess.An old Taoist priest with white beard pointed at the gun-wielding soldier and fell down in front of Qiu Liang, with blood holes on his head and chest.

Qiu Liang hurriedly stepped forward to help the king of Shu, but luckily he just fell heavily and was not seriously injured.Looking back at the gun-wielding soldier, the soldier stood up from the old Taoist priest and said, "The evil way is dead."

Qiu Liang looked at him and said, "How come I haven't seen you before?"

The soldier said with a smile: "Xia Jia Wu is the escort of the Taiping Escort of the capital."
