"Wang Ke of Youzhou!"
As soon as this voice came out.
The Green Forest Heroes, Beiping Prefecture generals and others in Zhuanzhu Lane were all surprised.
Who is Wang Ke?
He is now the chief official of the border area and the leader of the younger generation of officials.
Say something unpleasant.
Among the current foreign vassals, except for the King of Guanshan, King of Zhenshan, King of Guanshan, as well as the King of Beiping and the King of Weixi.
Next up was Wang Ke, the Marquis of Dingbei.
What's more, in the land of Youyan, the reputation of Dingbeihou may be better than that of the King of Beiping.
And now.
This prestigious prince of the imperial court actually came to Zhuanzhu Lane in Licheng County to attend the birthday banquet of Qin Qiong's mother.
Such an honor cannot but be surprising and enviable.
Back to the present.
While everyone was surprised.
That's just outside the alley.
Wang Ke took Guo Xiaoke and Mai Tiezhang and walked in at a rapid pace.
With a smile on his face, he saluted Qin Qiong and said, "Brother Shubao, congratulations!"
Qin Qiong hurriedly returned the gift: "It's an honor for me to be able to come, Lord Marquis. Please come in and serve tea."
Wang Ke nodded slightly when he heard the words.
Subsequently.
He turned his eyes and looked at Shan Xiongxin and Luo Cheng, who had different expressions next to him, and couldn't help but joked: "Ouch? Today is really a reunion of old friends!"
At this moment.
Shan Xiongxin and Luo Cheng looked at Wang Ke and had different thoughts in their hearts.
Shan Xiongxin looked at Wang Ke, and could not help but recall the embarrassment of Wang Ke killing several of his brothers outside Tiantang County that day while chatting and laughing, but he knew he was wrong and did not dare to say anything to stop him.
What Luo Cheng was thinking about was the confrontation between Jiang Song and Luo Yi, forcing the father he had always admired to lose his authority.
therefore.
Both of them felt more resentment towards Wang Ke than awe.
but.
From this aspect.
The two of them could be considered comrades-in-arms.
The book tells the story from then on.
With a smile on his face, Wang Ke saluted many prominent figures in the green forest, as well as the old generals of Beiping Mansion.
then.
He didn't care what Shan Xiongxin and Luo Cheng thought, he just followed Qin Qiong into the Qin family's residence and paid a visit to Mrs. Qin.
Although Mrs. Qin is a prostitute, she has also heard of Wang Ke's name.
When she saw people like Wang Ke coming to congratulate her on her birthday, she was so happy that she wanted to kneel down and salute Wang Ke.
Wang Ke quickly helped her up and said: "Old madam, you are Brother Shubao's mother and my elder. How can I accept your great gift? Please get up quickly!"
Qin Qiong was nearby and quickly helped her mother up.
Mrs. Qin looked at Wang Ke and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Yu, has condescended to be here. Please stay a few more days and let Shu Bao accompany you to visit Jinan Mansion."
Wang Ke said with a smile: "Thank you, Madam, for your concern. I think so too... In addition to wishing you birthday, Madam, I also have the official duty of suppressing bandits. When the time comes, I have to invite my uncle." Brother Bao, please help me a lot!"
As he spoke, he naturally turned back to look at Qin Qiong.
really.
When Qin Qiong heard Wang Ke say the word "suppress bandits", his expression changed unconsciously.
However.
at this time.
Outside the door, Fan Hu came in and reported: "Second brother Qin, another distinguished guest has arrived!"
Hearing this, Qin Qiong told Wang Ke that he was sorry and was about to get up and go out.
Wang Ke was also curious about who the distinguished guest was, and followed Qin Qiong into the courtyard.
As soon as he went out, he met a few more acquaintances.
"Hahaha! Second brother Qin is always well? Eh? Is Marquis Dingbei here too!"
"Hahahaha! It turns out to be Young Master Chai... Oops, Second Young Master Li is here too."
turn out to be.
The distinguished guest this time is no one else.
It was the representatives sent by Tang Gong Li Yuan from Taiyuan - his son-in-law Chai Shao and his second son Li Shimin.
at this time.
Chai Shao and Li Shimin paid homage to Wang Ke.
After Wang Ke saluted them, his eyes fell on the five extraordinary-looking generals brought behind them.
"I wonder who these are?"
He looked at the five generals and asked Chai Shao and Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was young, and his brother-in-law Chai Shao was responsible for all foreign affairs.
present.
Chai Shao said: "These are all generals in the Tang family... The green-faced man is called Ma Sanbao, the red-faced man is called Liu Hongji, the white-faced man is called Yin Kaishan, and the black-faced man is called Duan Zhixuan , and this hero, who is as powerful as a bear and a tiger, and looks like an evil god, is called Wei Chigong."
"Yu Chigong?"
Hear the name.
Wang Ke's heart moved slightly.
He turned his eyes and looked at the tall man who was closely following Li Shimin.
But I saw this person, with a face like the bottom of a pot, broom eyebrows, a lion nose, copper bell eyes, wearing black iron armor, a black tiger war robe, a green onion belt hanging from his waist, a tiger-eye steel whip hanging on it, and holding a snake eight feet long. The spear is really majestic and murderous.
at the same time.
Information about Yu Chigong also appeared in the simulator in Wang Ke's mind.
"Hahahahaha! Mr. Tang is indeed very powerful, but I don't know where he recruited such talents?"
Wang Ke and Yuchi Gong finished saluting each other and asked casually without leaving any trace.
Chai Shao introduced: "The four heroes Ma Sanbao, Liu Hongji, Yin Kaishan, and Duan Zhixuan were originally generals under the two generals Hua Gongyi and Hua Gongji of Jindiguan. They came to seek refuge with Tang Gong just because they had an old relationship with him. ...As for Brother Yuchi, he is indeed a rare talent!"
Speaking of which.
He spoke slowly and told Wang Ke exactly how he met Yuchi Gong, how he went to Taiyuan with him, and how Yuchi Gong was appreciated by Li Shimin.
The first half of this matter has been written before in this article, so I won’t repeat it here.
For now, I will only give a brief account of what happened after Yu Chigong arrived in Taiyuan.
Let us say that Yuchi Gong escorted Chai Shao to Taiyuan, and when he was about to say goodbye and leave, Chai Shao grabbed Yuchi Gong and invited him to join him for a banquet in Tang Gong's mansion.
Yuchi Gong was reluctant at first, but he couldn't resist Chai Shao's enthusiasm, so he let him go.
Wait until he arrived at Tang Gong's mansion in Taiyuan.
Li Yuan, who learned that Chai Shao had brought a brave warrior, led a group of his children out to greet him.
When Yuchi Gong saw Li Yuan being so courteous to the corporal, he felt quite comfortable. He clasped his hands in fists and said: "Wei Chigong, a common man, pays homage to Duke Tang!"
Say it.
He bowed slightly and saluted Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji.
Click!
Unexpectedly, it was this prayer.
On the phoenix-winged helmet worn by Yuchi Gong, the phoenix's eyes suddenly opened!
Yuchi Gong seemed to feel something. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Yuan in front of him. He thought to himself: "Could this be my true master?"
