Chapter 031 Meet Tong Guan by chance

Hengshanzhai was busy in an orderly manner. Sha Shiyan was busy with the placement of grain and grass and hurried back to the inner house of the cottage. Gao Yu had changed into a casual suit, a light blue east slope scarf, a water-blue long shirt with silver embroidered thread, and embroidered silk hanging jade around his waist. How could he look like a king of the cottage? The scholars are not too much. Zuoning has also changed his dress, brown coarse clothes and trousers, looking like a familyman,

"Your Majesty, you are about to go down the mountain." Although Sha Shiyan knew that Gao Yu had decided to enter Yongle City, he was still a little worried,

Gao Yu patted Sha Shiyan: "Brother Sha, I'll leave the matter of the cottage to you."

Sha Shiyan silently sent Gao Yu out of the cottage, and suddenly came to him: "Your Majesty, go and have a look. Ma Sheng has got you a good horse."

Gao Yu and the other two walked quickly towards the open space in front of the cottage council hall. They saw a snow-white horse tied to a wooden stake. At this time, Ma Sheng didn't know where he had gone. The horse was hissing or not raising two front hooves high, struggling anxiously,

Everyone walked a little closer and saw the horse one foot from head to the tail, more than eight feet from the hoof to the back, and a big hoof wrist. Seven inches thin, bamboo stick ear knife mantis neck, dry stick bone, open chest, just like a happy dragon,

Ma Sheng ran back from the cottage and shouted to the crowd, "Don't come near it. This horse is fierce." Ma seemed to know Ma Sheng. When he saw Ma Sheng, his mood was a little more stable, but soon he saw that Ma Sheng did not seem to let go of him. Instead, he was more irritable and kept digging the ground.

"Ma Sheng, come over." Gao Yu greeted, "Where did this horse come from?"

Ma Sheng ran to Gao Yu: "Stolen, this horse is a wild horse. I happened to meet someone who circled this horse."

"You helped them."

Ma Sheng snorted: "It's a group of Song troops. It seems that there are 20 or 30 people from other places. The leader is a eunuch, but he is very young, and it seems to order this horse. I watched the horse in their circle exhausted, and the horse was not convinced. When the official approached, the horse Private work can't stand on the ground. Later, I let go of a few Song Jun's horses. They were in a hurry to chase their own horses, so they let go of this guy. However, it seems that this guy still refuses to be honest.

Gao Yu's eyes were shining, and he couldn't help praising: "Good horse, good horse."

Sha Shiyan asked, "The king recognizes this horse."

Gao Yu nodded and pointed to the horse and said, "Look, there is a note in the left ear of the horse, just like a magnolia flower. In fact, this is not a note, it is a horn, a horn, and there are four spins on one side of the horse's stomach. In fact, this is not a spin, it is a scale, with horns on the head and scales under the belly. It is said that it is not a horse, a dragon, at least a dragon species. This horse is not another horse. It was Zhao Yun's mount in those years. The night jade lion is also known as the magnolia white dragon colt or the dragon finch.

Ma Sheng's eyes were also bright: "Yes, yes, it is said that the king of Zhennan** in the Song Dynasty was such a horse. After the prince died, the horse starved himself to death. This is a heart horse, but it is not easy to recognize the Lord."

Gao Yu's heart was excited when he heard it. He flirted with his robe and said, "I'll do it." Walking like a horse,

When the dragon finch saw a stranger entering, it unexpectedly raised its front hoof like Gao Yu. Everyone exclaimed. Gao Yu's memory of how to tame the horse was still fresh. He saw that he avoided the horse's hoof, turned over the horse and grasped the reins of the horse tightly with one hand, clamped the horse's stomach, grabbed the horse's left ear with one hand, and clenched it tightly. Like holding his horn, this move was both quick and powerful. The dragon finch struggled a few times and suddenly realized that the person who came had caught his key point, or this person was his real master. His footsteps gradually slowed down. Finally, he calm down and turned into a step in place, and his head was no longer high.

There was a few minutes in this process. Gao Yu sweated slightly. After all, there was no saddle. He sat naked on the horse's back and clamped hard and exhausted his hands. He not only needed skills but also worked hard. Seeing that the dragon finch did not toss around, Gao Yu slowly fell on the horse's back and let go of the left. The horse was still very honest. Gao Yu patted the horse's neck and turned over and got off the horse. At this time, the dragon finch seemed to meet the long-lost owner who tilted his head and snuggled up to Gao Yu.

Hearing the ringing of the skylark's nose, Ma Sheng suddenly laughed: "Your Majesty, you are so powerful. It's convinced."

Gao Yu wiped his forehead: "It's good to take it. Feed some forage and equip it with equipment."

Ma Sheng responded, and everyone in the stockade couldn't help giving a thumbs up to Gao Yu. Zoning helped Ma Sheng and prepared his own horse by the way. The two muttered in a low voice. Ma Sheng said, "I didn't see that the king still has this ability. How much ability does he have that we don't know?"

Zoning urged: "Who knows, feed the horse quickly."

The horses were ready, and Gao Yu Zuoning got on the horse again. Sha Shiyan and others sent Gao Yu to the door of the cottage. Suddenly, they saw the dust on the mountain road gradually rising, and a chaotic sound of horse stepping. From afar, they saw a team of Song soldiers coming up the mountain along the mountain road.

Gao Yu was surprised. What's going on? They are on this cliff. The terrain is complex and hidden, and there are usually few lights at night. What's more, this place is not a road to Xixia at all. How can there suddenly be Song Bing?

Seeing this, Ma Sheng muttered, "No, isn't this the Song army of the group of horses?"

Everyone in Hengshanzhai became nervous. Sha Shiyan asked, "Your Majesty, there are not many people coming. Shall we prepare to do it?"

Gao Yu waved his hand: " Calm down."

There were only 20 or 30 people in the Song army, led by the eunuch mentioned by Ma Sheng. When these people came to the gate of Hengshanzhai, someone shouted, "General, where is the horse?" Then the horses' hoofs approached Dazhai with dust,

An official led by Song Jun came to the village first. Gao Yu, who was sitting on the dragon finch, was stunned at the same time.

The person who came is about thirty years old. He is long and black but not dirty, but handsome and black, with handsome eyebrows and big eyes, bright eyes, and a long beard in his jaw. It seems that this beard has been kept for many years. He is very burly and masculine. It is difficult to take his appearance and the wingless man on his head. When the head was connected, Gao Yu couldn't help but be shocked. This is not Tong Guan or who it is. Although it has been more than ten years, his facial features are rare and young. However, Tong Guan really became a eunuch, but how to explain his beard and his Adam's apple?

In addition to Gao Yu's shock, the people who came were also quite shocked. A man who looked like a godfather sitting on a night jade lion suddenly returned to his youth,

This person is Tong Guan,

How did Tong Guan appear here? This is to explain the eunuch institutions of the Song Dynasty. In addition to introspection, there are several departments. One of them is called Guangou's National Credit Office. In the Northern Song Dynasty, it was mainly responsible for the foreign affairs of Liao and Xixia. Today's Song and Xia relations, this division has long been useless. A few months ago, Tong Guan avoided The disaster came to this office and the border of Xia and Song. As for his disaster, if it happens this time, it will be a great disaster, and whether he can turn bad luck into good luck depends on whether he can endure this month or two.

But at this time, the court sent troops to build Yongle City. At the same time, Tong Guan also received an order to return to Beijing. When he was ready to leave, he met the dragonfinch who left the horse group.

Everything is so coincidental, and indeed so coincidental. Tong Guan is very careful. He carefully observed the terrain and distinguished the traces of horses, and finally let him find this cottage hidden in the deep mountain cliffs.

Looking at Gao Yu in front of him, Tong Guan was left with consternation and surprise. He subconsciously went to brush his beard. Suddenly, he shouted. The ancients lost his father before he had a beard. Tong Guan's beard had been kept for some years. He thought of his beard for more than ten years. Even if his godfather was alive, he should not be the current appearance, so You shouted and then asked, "Who is opposite and where is here?"

Gao Yu was distressed for a while. Thinking of Tong Guan's respect for him, Tong Guan's cleverness, and his love for Tong Guan, now his adopted son is in front of him, but for hundreds of people up and down in the Hengshanzhai. For what he wanted to do, he gritted his teeth and said blankly, "Who is this general? This place is my cottage. "."

"Your cottage, do you support troops here or become a mountain thief and road bandit?" Tong Guan stared and asked,

"The general misunderstood. We are just salt merchants. I heard that Song Xia was going to war, so I chose this place to avoid the war. If the king doesn't believe it, it's better to fight in the cottage." Gao Yu said very calmly, and Tong Guan was skeptical,

Gao Yu simply dismounted and welcomed Tong Guan and others into the cottage. Tong Guan looked left and right. The cottage was not too big, and it was a coincidence that Gao Yu arranged four groups of 200 elites to do secret tasks. The rest of the cottage was polite like Sha Shiyan, or some elderly salt help elders, so look There doesn't seem to be any strong troops when you go up,

Tong Guan turned around for half a circle and didn't see anything strange. He stood in the village and looked at Gao Yu and the horse,

"This horse is yours."

"Exactly, oh, I brought this horse from Dali, but I was cheated away on the road and got lost with me. My friends in Yanzhou can testify about this for me. I didn't expect to lose this place and get it back." Gao Yu said with a smile, feeling tight and uncomfortable when laughing,

Tong Guan nodded and suddenly sighed, "Maybe you can match this horse." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave,

"General, stay, I haven't asked for your name yet." Gao Yu suddenly asked,

Tong Guan looked sideways at Gao Yu: "In Xia Tong Guan, he was originally in charge of the Guoxin Institute, but he will return to the capital soon. You'd better be careful here and don't get into trouble for yourself." Probably Gao Yu was too much like Wang's side. Tong Guan suddenly had no intention of hurting. After saying that, he walked to his team. As soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly stood up and turned around and asked, "You are the siding in charge of the salt gang. What's your name? I just saw that you seemed to be leaving the village. Where are you going?"

"It's raining heavily, and I'm going to Yongle City to inspect the market." Gao Yu arched his hand and said,

"Well, get on the horse. I'll take you to the city." Tong Guan suddenly said generously that the cottage was suspicious, and he couldn't find any evidence, but it was difficult for such a large cottage to become a climate, and the person in front of him was so like a king. In short, the more Tong Guan thought about it, the more entangled he became. He said this sentence and stared at Gao Yu's reaction,
