Everyone had a drink at Pipa Pavilion and came to Zhang Shun's house to stay overnight.
Chao Yong saw Zhang Shun leading everyone out of the city and couldn't help but wonder: "Brother doesn't live in the city?"
Zhang Shun shook his head and said: "Cai Dezhang, the magistrate of Jiangzhou City, is the ninth son of Grand Master Cai Jing. Relying on his father's power, he became an official with excessive corruption and was arrogant and extravagant. Many people wanted to get in touch with Cai Jing and came to Jiangzhou to please him. The city was full of corrupt officials and sycophants. Living in the city would cause trouble, so I took my mother to live outside the city. I only sold fish outside the city unless someone in the city owed money. , I just went to the city to collect the debt.¡±
While everyone was chatting along the way, they came to a fishing village with only a dozen or so families on the left and right.
When I came to a courtyard, I saw an old woman sewing a fishing net in the courtyard.
Zhang Heng shouted: "Mom, I'm back."
When the old woman heard the sound, she raised her head and squinted her eyes to see that her two sons were back. She immediately smiled and said, "Why is Heng'er back today?"
When everyone got closer, they saw that there were two more people, and they hurriedly said: "We have guests. You sit down first, and I will light a fire and prepare food for you."
Zhang Shun picked up the things in his hands and said, "I don't have to be busy. We ate outside and brought you some food."
Chao Yong and Ruan Xiaoqi hurried forward to see Mrs. Zhang Shun.
Mrs. Zhang Shun squinted her eyes and looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "You two young men are so handsome, please sit down first, and I will boil some water for you to drink."
After saying that, he walked to the fire room in the courtyard.
Chao Yong looked at the old woman¡¯s nimble legs and said with a smile: ¡°I have a strong body.¡±
Zhang Shun smiled and said: "Well, it's just that my eyes are not working well, but my body has always been strong and free of illnesses. Only last year I had a back disease, and many doctors couldn't cure it. Later, I invited An Daoquan, the miracle doctor of Jiankang Prefecture, and he was cured several times. The side medicines are removed until the disease is cured, and there will be no more illnesses.¡±
The miracle doctor An Daoquan was another purpose of Chao Yong's trip south. Every battle in Liangshan would produce many injuries, many of them disabled due to improper treatment. A miracle doctor was no less useful to Liangshan than a general.
Hearing Zhang Shun mention An Daoquan, he took advantage of the situation and said: "I have also heard the name of the miracle doctor An Daoquan many times. I have been constantly fighting in Liangshan, so he is useful. I wonder if my brother still has contact with him?"
Zhang Shun nodded and said: "I was afraid that I would feel unwell again, so I caught some rare fish and turtles in the river and sent them to him. He also gave me some medicine to nourish my spirit and qi. But he and I had another problem. The difference is that even those officials have many requests from him, so I'm afraid he won't let us go."
Zhang Heng, however, did not change his banditry. He also felt that his brother had just joined the gang. If he could make a great contribution, he would have a bright future by going to Liangshan, so he shouted: "If he doesn't want to, we will tie him up and take him to Liangshan."
Chao Yong nodded and said: "Although what brother Zhang Heng said is reckless, this person is important to me in Liangshan, and Chao Yong has to be a strong man for once. I have fought countless battles in Liangshan, and many brothers were injured in every battle. If I can If you ask him to go up the mountain, the brothers will suffer less."
Ruan Xiaoqi shouted: "He is willing to treat those corrupt officials, but he is not willing to treat the heroes of Liangshan? If that is the case, I will wipe his neck and see if he, a miracle doctor, can take him back."
"Xiao Qi, don't talk nonsense. Even if you invite him, you should persuade him with kind words. I have a lot of gold and silver in Liangshan. As long as he is willing to go up the mountain, I guarantee that he will have endless gold and silver."
Zhang Shun thought for a while, and his mother was getting older. It was a bumpy journey to Liangshan, and there was no chance that she would suffer from headaches and fever. If the miracle doctor An Daoquan was with her, she would be safe.
At that moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, since you all said so, I will take care of this matter and I will ensure that all An Dao is invited."
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together off out of the blue, everyone agreed to talk more about Jiangzhou scenery, and then they all fell asleep.
The next day, Zhang went down the river to ask for An Daoquan.
Chao Yongze, Ruan Xiaoqi and Zhang Heng came to the city. When they were about to arrive in Jiangzhou City, they saw a restaurant with carved eaves and painted roofs by the river. The three characters "Xunyang Tower" were written on the plaque on the door. , but it was signed by Su Dongpo. On the two vermilion pillars beside the door, it is written: "There is no matchless wine in the world, and there are famous buildings in the world."
Chao Yong was naturally very familiar with Su Dongpo¡¯s famous name, so he couldn¡¯t help but ask: ¡°Is that plaque the original work of Su Dongpo?¡±
Zhang Heng nodded and said: "It was indeed written by Su Dongpo. There are also poems written by Bai Juyi of the former Tang Dynasty in the building, so it attracted many literati to come here. However, we and other Jianghu men rarely go to this building."
Chao Yong also remembered that it was at this Xunyang Tower that Song Jiang wrote his anti-poem, which caused a big setback. He couldn't help but become interested, and said with a smile: "There are many people in the city and it is difficult to talk. Why don't we find a secluded pavilion in Xunyang Tower, and then send someone to ask for Dean Dai, the Taibao of Shenxing."
? ?Seeing that Chao Yong wanted to go to Xunyang Tower to play, Heng Heng said, "Brother Yong has thought carefully, so I just asked the waiter from Xunyang Tower to come over."
Enter the Xunyang Tower and take a tour. Although it is not as luxurious as the Fan Tower, it has a more cultural atmosphere. There are poems inscribed by celebrities such as Wei Yingwu, Bai Juyi and Su Shi of the Tang Dynasty hanging in the building.
"I have always loved Tao Pengze, and his literary thoughts are so profound. I also blame Wei Jiangzhou, and his poetry is also leisurely. Now that I have climbed this building, I can understand it. The cold bottom of the river is cold, and the Kuangshan Mountain is green and leaning against the sky. Late at night, the moon is shining in the Pupu, and the beacon smoke is shining in the Pingdan furnace. . Qinghui and spiritual energy. I have no two talents. I am so proud that I am ashamed of my country."
When Chao Yong was standing in front of Bai Juyi's poem to pay homage, he heard a woman's crisp voice next to him: "This Bai Juyi's poem is better, easy to understand."
Chao Yong turned around and saw the girl talking next to her. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and was as pretty as a fairy. However, she did not wear a mattress and skirt like an ordinary woman. Instead, she was dressed in white clothes. She looked like a person from the world.
The girl didn¡¯t blush when she saw Chao Yong looking at her. She glanced at Chao Yong, Ruan Xiaoqi and Zhang Heng, and then left gracefully.
After the girl left, Chao Yong and others also found a pavilion near the river, and then called a bartender and asked him to invite Dean Dai, the Taibao of Shenxing, and said that he was invited by an old friend of Jeju.
After the bartender left, Chao Yong and the others stood in the pavilion and looked at the Xunyang River.
When Chao Yong was looking at the turbulent river, he heard a whisper coming from the pavilion next to him. If Chao Yong hadn't been able to hear clearly after traveling through time, his ears and eyesight were much better than ordinary people's.
"My subordinate He San, the envoy of Jiangzhou, comes to see the Holy Aunt."
"Maybe you can find out Cai Jiu's whereabouts?"
"Our religion has just started to develop believers in Jiangzhou. We need to keep an eye on Cai Jiu, so we may not have enough manpower. Moreover, the Holy Duke has already ordered believers from all over the place to ask the Holy Aunt to return to Qingxi immediately if they see her."
"When I kill Cai Jiu, I will naturally return to Qingxi. Find out about Cai Jiu's whereabouts and see where this dog officer is going in the past few days. I can't kill Cai Jing, a traitor who is causing chaos in the country, and I can't kill Cai Jiu. Count it as eliminating harm for the people.¡±
"No, there are many minions around Cai Jiu. If something happens to the Holy Aunt, how can I explain it to the Holy Aunt?"
"You are so presumptuous, I am the holy lady in the religion. You just have to act according to my orders, otherwise I will withdraw you as the envoy."
"yes."
"Okay, let's go. Once we know something, we'll leave a secret note in Xunyang Tower."
Chao Yong knew that the Holy Gong was a Manichae when he heard it, but he didn't expect that the Holy Aunt's voice turned out to be the woman he had just met before Bai Juyi wrote the poem, and he didn't expect that she actually wanted to assassinate Cai Jiu alone.
