Chapter 7 Identity Confirmed
This is probably the lowest guest room in this tattered in the inlet. The room is not big, a messy straw on the earthen kang, an unstable basin on the ground, a broken table and two shabby chairs, which are all the things in the room.
** There was a patient lying down. He had bedsores on his body and lay on his back to the side of the doorman. The smell of mixed medicine in the room was even more spicy. The shopkeeper covered his nose and stood at the door: "This prince, here he is."
Wang didn't say much. It was natural to give money to the store. He didn't throw the patient out directly. It can be seen that the shopkeeper was a little benevolent and righteous. "I'm working with you." With that, he took out the broken silver from his arms, about three or four taels: "Is this enough?"
"It's enough and rich. He has lived for three months, and one or two taels of silver is enough."
"For the rest, please invite a man to come over, change to a better room by the way, and prepare some other meals."
"No questions." The shopkeeper took the silver and hurried to do it,
After talking, the child had already brought a basin of water and put it by the bedside. He washed the hand towel and twisted it hard a few times. He tried not to touch the wound and wiped the patient's body: "Dad, are you better? I bought you a steamed bun."
This scene suddenly reminded Wang that Di Qing was seriously ill in the inn. The difference is that although he respected Di Qing, he was not as dedicated as the child. He stepped forward, took the towel from the child's hand, and twisted it out a lot of water.
"Cough, Yong'er, who's here?" The patient lying on ** gasped and said,
"It's a prince who wants to come to see you."
"Help Dad." He tried to hold his body hard,
Gao Yu stepped forward. He didn't know why he always felt very familiar with this. He pushed the patient up first, then moved the center and finally put it down. The patient's eyes stared at the king. When he finally saw Gao Yu clearly, he was short of breath: "I, I finally found you." After saying that, I fainted without taking a breath,
The child hurriedly called "Dad" and shook it. Gao Yu said, "Your father may be too excited." After saying that, he pressed hard on the patient's people. Not only was the patient excited, but Wang was also very excited. This man turned out to be Chen Kang. He really wanted to wake him up, but he didn't faint. If he wanted to be safe, his life must be a secret, not to mention that he decided to take the father and son with him.
After a while, the patient lying in ** woke up. Wang smiled and said, "Old sir, you're awake."
Chen Kang shook his head and saw that Gao Yu didn't know himself at all, but no matter how he looked at it, Gao Yu should not be Wang. If Wang lived to the present, he should be in his forties. The young man in front of him was also just 20 years old. He was a little disappointed. He sighed and closed his eyes,
Gao Yu turned to the child and asked, "I just heard your father say that your name is Yong'er."
"Yes."
"What's your last name and what's your father's name?"
"My father's name is Chen Kang, my name is Chen Yong, Yong from Yongzhou."
Gao Yu's heart moved, and a warm current surged up: "Then where do you come from?"
"Of course, I came from Yongzhou, but my father and I have gone a lot of places. Every time we go to the capital, go around, then go back to Yongzhou, and then go to the capital, and then go around."
"Then what are you doing here? How is your father sick?"
"My father said to find someone." Chen Yong answered this, but he didn't know how Chen Kang was sick,
"Guest officer, the guest room is ready, and Lang Zhong is also here. I asked the clerk to help send people there." The shopkeeper asked at the door,
Changed to a new guest room. Chen Yong was very happy. The furniture in the room was complete, and 70% to 80% of them were new. There were food on the table. Gao Yu asked the clerk to add some clothes and applications to Chen Kang and his son, and also gave some more money to reward the clerk to take care of the patients.
Who would have thought that a person who was about to die of illness in the store had such a big friend. He had money to make ghosts grind. The guys were busy serving Chen Kang. In addition, Gao Yu, the prescription He Libo prescribed for Di Qing in those years, still remembered, so in two or three days, most of Chen Kang's body had more than half of the cold poison, and the bedsores had been scabbed. ,
Gao Yu took time to see him every day. Chen Kang also gradually said a few words to Gao Yu. In addition, Chen Yong added that Gao Yu knew Chen Kang's experience.
In those years, he said goodbye to Lu Shenyan and others and insisted on going to Wang. He went to Yongzhou first, and then he went to all the places where Wang might go. When he returned to the capital, he heard that Wang was confirmed to be dead. At first, no one believed it, but later, people found a body in Baozhou, and his appearance was unrecognizable. There was nothing in the gold and silver. The only thing he found was a secret letter from the king and the Liao Dynasty. The emperor cried bitterly, saying that he had read the wrong person. Yue Li was also implicated for this matter, because he released the spies of the Liao Dynasty from his territory,
"What a spy, Xin Zan was framed by the Liao Dynasty. He followed He Li to the Virgin. Through Yue Li's territory, Yue Li ordered the release." Speaking of these things, Chen Kang looked gloomy, and Gao Yu was even more resentful. Zhao Yu even did this kind of thing,
"Then Mr. Chen, why did you come to Yanzhou again?"
Since the court took over Yongzhou, although it has also prospered for a period of time, the personal situation of officials is serious. Yongzhou has become a gathering place for officials and businessmen. It was not long before the gold mine in Guangyuan has also leaked out. In the sixth year of Xining, Shen Qiyin was appreciated by Prime Minister Wang Anshi and replaced Xiao Zhu as Zhiguizhou. He claimed to have been prepared by a secret decree. The crusade against Jiaozhi, according to the armor protection method, Liu Yi, who was appointed as Zhigui Prefecture, was more radical and tough. He cut off the seal of Jiaozhi to the Song Dynasty. He also claimed that there was a secret order of the court, stepped up the training of soldiers, and even banned the local trade with Jiaozhi, which made Jiaozhi uneasy. He thought that Song would attack, so he decided to attack Song. In the seventh year of Xining, he divided his troops into two ways, and the waterway went to attack the Song Dynasty,
During this period, Liu Yi ordered Zhang Shoujie, the governor of Guangxi, to lead reinforcements to rescue, but Zhang Shoujie did not move forward and was beheaded during the confrontation with Li Changjie. As a result, Yongzhou basically lost the possibility of receiving aid and became a lonely city. Jiaozhi invaded Yongzhou to kill, killing more than 58,000 soldiers and civilians in Yongzhou. In addition to the Qinlian two states killed before, Jiaozhi was killed. No less than 100,000, even some monks and Taoist priests were not spared. Especially after killing these monks, Li Jun seized the ultimatums of these people. The spies put on these people' clothes and mixed into some military areas to investigate the situation.
In the end, Prince Hong Zhen and Prince Zhaowen died in the battle of Fuliangjiang. Zuo Lang's general Ruan Gen was captured. Only then did the two sides make peace, but Wang Anshi officially stopped after this battle and did not come back.
What a tragic war it was. Looking back on the scene at that time, Chen Kang couldn't help sighing,
"At that time, corpses were everywhere, and many families and children were scattered. Those officials and businessmen in Yongzhou robbed more than bandits and ran faster than deserters when they really fought." He pointed to Chen Yong: "I picked up this child from a woman. When I picked him up, his mother blocked the long gun of the cross-toe cavalry with her back. I don't know his name, so I have to let him take my last name and name Yong so that he will always remember the humiliation of Yongzhou."
Yongzhou couldn't stay any longer. Chen Kang always felt that Wang was not dead. He didn't give up and began to wander around again. This time, he took Chen Yong with him. Unexpectedly, he almost died in Yanzhou. Chen Yong listened and cried. Gao Yu was also very touched in his heart.
Chen Kang suddenly seemed to think of something: "That's right, how old are you this year?"
"I have been born for three years"
"Then you should be 23 or 14 years old this year."
Gao Yu nodded, and Chen Kang sighed again, "When the prince disappeared, he was the same age as you. No wonder my old eyes would admit his mistake."
"What are Mr. Chen's plans for the future?"
"I don't have any plans. It's time for Yonger to go to school, and I can't walk around. Find a place to settle down."
Gao Yu nodded: "I just bought a house in Yanzhou. I heard that it was the old house of the king of Zhennan. If Mr. Chen doesn't dislike it, I can provide food and accommodation. I will pay you 20 taels of silver every month, which is enough to hire a good gentleman for Yong'er."
Chen Kang listened and reluctantly got up to salute the king. Chen Yong knelt down and kowtowed to the king and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gao."
Even if this matter is settled, Chen Kang has been able to move smoothly after a few days. The father and son don't have many things, so they took the opportunity to move into the newly repaired house.
On this day, Wang Bian and Liang Yiqi were drinking tea and playing chess in the yard. Gao Yu suddenly said, "Brother Xian, we have been out for ten days. Why aren't you in a hurry to go back?"
"Alas, I'm just an idle prince. My father is usually in Xingqing Mansion, and he seldom goes to Helan. I'm also very bored when I go back."
"Then haven't you had a family yet?"
"Aren't you not even a family? I'm worried about something, and I haven't met the person I like, will." Liang Yiqi buttoned the chess pieces on the chessboard and said happily,
"This move is like staying with me and looking behind you." The king was not in a hurry. Liang Yi's chess skills were too poor, regardless of the past and the back,
"Let you win again." Liang Yiyu said with a helpless smile,
Chen Kang came in from the outer court: "Someone sent a letter to the second son."
Liang Yibu took the letter and opened it with a happy face. He waved his hand to ask Chen Kang to retreat and give the letter to the king. Originally, it was written by Liang Yi. The letter said that Gao Yu is a real messenger of Dali and should be kind to him. At the same time, he has told the Empress Dowager Liang that the Empress Dowager Liang wants to see Gao Yu.
The letter is very vague, but it means this. Is it true? Gao Yu himself can't understand, because he knows that he is fake, and if he wants to see Liang Luoyao, can he resist the hatred in his heart?
He put the letter aside: "Let's write this. Don't be in a hurry to see the Empress Dowager. After all, the two places in Dali and Xixia can't be solved in one or two sentences. The urgent need is to find out the trend of the Song Dynasty. Let's wait a few more days."
In the middle of the night, someone gently touched into the room next to the king and walked to the table. Just as he was about to pick up the letter, a fire lit up: "Mr. Chen, what are you looking for?"
Wang sat there, as if he had known that Chen Kang had come back. He lit the lamp in a hurry,
"Who the hell are you? Is it the spy sent by Xixia to my Song Dynasty?" Chen Kang asked,
"Yes." Wang was not obscure. Chen Kang turned around and stared at Wang, "Aren't you afraid that I'll go to the government to inform you?"
