The next day, Yan Qing said goodbye to Chai Jin and turned back to Daming Mansion.
Three days later, Yan Qing came to Dayu Mountain and rushed to Xu Guanzhong's thatched cottage. He saw Xu Guanzhong sitting on the ground with several men and women. A closer look revealed that the men did not recognize him, but the women were Jinxia, Yinxia and Tong. Xia.
Seeing Yan Qing come in, Jin Xia jumped up and ran towards Yan Qing, punching him.
Yan Qing reached out to grab Jin Xia's hand and shouted loudly: "Jin Xia! Don't be rude!"
Jin Xia was grabbed by Yan Qing's hand and couldn't break free. She quickly turned to Jia Shizhong and said, "Young Master, if you don't take action, what are you waiting for?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Shizhong also jumped up and rushed towards Yan Qing.
At the same time as Jia Shizhong jumped up, Xu Guanzhong also jumped up, stood between Yan Qing and Jia Shizhong, and said: "Everyone, the grievances in the world can be resolved immediately, why are they fighting together again?"
Yan Qing and Jia Shizhong looked at Xu Guanzhong at the same time and asked, "Who is he?"
Xu Guanzhong said to Yan Qing: "Brother Xiao Yi, let go quickly, I will introduce you."
Hearing this, Yan Qing let go of Jin Xia's hand.
Jinxia shook her hands vigorously.
Jin Xia's hand hurt from being pinched by Yan Qing.
Xu Guanzhong smiled and said: "Xiao Yi, this is Jia Yishi, a native of Yanjing, and has joined our cause."
Immediately, Xu Guanzhong said to Jia Shizhong: "Brother Shizhong, this is the hero of Liangshan and the prodigal son Yan Qing!"
Yan Qing looked at Xu Guanzhong in surprise.
Jia Shizhong went to see Jin Xia and wanted to ask for Jin Xia's advice.
Jinxia turned her head away from looking at Jia Shizhong.
Xu Guanzhong said: "Xiaoyi, Shizhong, you two have met each other first, and then we can talk slowly."
When Yan Qing and Jia Shizhong heard this, they each clasped their fists and said, "How fortunate! How fortunate!"
Xu Guanzhong invited Yan Qing and Jia Shizhong to sit down, and then told Yan Qing one by one how Jia Shizhong came to seek revenge during this period, how he persuaded Jia Shizhong to put down his grudges, how Jia Shizhong bought horses after returning, and so on.
Yan Qing was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly stood up, bowed to Jia Shizhong, and said, "Yan Qing is lucky enough to get to know Jia Yishi. Please accept Yan Qing's respect."
Jia Shizhong also got up and greeted Yan Qing, saying, "Shizhong is also polite."
After the ceremony was over again, both parties sat down.
The atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
Yan Qing met Xu Guanzhong and Jia Shizhong again, and then explained in detail how he met Lu Junyi, Song Jiang, Ruan Xiaoqi and Chai Jin during his trip south and north.
Yan Qing finally said: "My brother Xiaoqi and my brother Chai Daguanren will both move here soon. We have sworn brothers again in Dayu Mountain and will escape here together. If something happens to the country in the future, we can be loyal to the country." .”
When Xu Guanzhong heard that Ruan Xiaoqi and Chai Jin would also move here, he was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "These days, let's seize the time and quickly build houses for the brothers, so that they will have a place to live when they come. "
Yan Qing said: "Exactly!"
After saying that, Yan Qing turned his head again and said to Jia Shizhong: "How old is Jia Yishi?"
Jia Shizhong replied: "Shizhong was born in the year of Ox. Calculated carefully, six out of thirty."
Yan Qing stood up again, pushed the gold mountain, poured down the jade pillar, fell to the ground and bowed, saying: "In this way, Jia Yishi is Xiao Yi's brother. Yan Qing is thirty-two years old this year, and Jia Yishi is four years older than Yi. Xiao Yi is being polite now. He kneels down and worships his brother, wishing him good health."
Jia Shizhong was so startled that he stood up, hurriedly bent down to help Yan Qing up, and said, "Xiao Yi, get up quickly. My brother cannot afford this gift."
Yan Qing knelt down and insisted on kowtowing to Jia Shizhong.
Jia Shizhong had no choice but to accept Yan Qing's kowtow.
After paying homage to Jia Shizhong, Yan Qing turned to Jinxia, Yinxia and Tongxia.
Jinxia, Yinxia, and Tongxia all turned away and refused to accept Yan Qing's worship.
Seeing this, Xu Guanzhong hurriedly advised: "Girls, when we meet each other this time, our grudges and hatreds are like clouds and smoke. When the wind blows, we all depend on each other and hide here, so we should take care of each other."
Yinxia and Tongxia did not speak.
Jin Xia said: "Master, forgive me. The grudge between us and Yunbi will be resolved by ourselves sooner or later. Master, you are men. What you will do is your business. We and other women will not object, but if you let It’s impossible for us to shake hands with Yunbi and make peace.”
Yan Qing heard this and said: "Jinxia, all things are the general trend and cannot be controlled by ordinary people like me. Regarding the matter of the princess, I and Chai Daguan did have something wrong; however, , the military orders are overwhelming, I have to do it, I hope the girls can understand, and I hope the girls can comfort Princess Yinzhi after they go back, Xiao Yi is willing to do his best to make up for his mistakes."
"Can such mistakes be made up for?" Jin Xia said, "Yunbi, you don't have to say anything! Anyway, I can't forgive you and Ke Yin."
"Yes!" Yinxia and Tongxia also joined in and said, "We sisters will never forgive you and Ke Yin."
Yan Qing had no choice but to laugh at himself and sat down.
Jin Xia looked at Xu Guanzhong and said, "Master Xu, you guys are sitting here talking, while my sisters Yin Xia, Tong Xia and I are walking around outside. To be honest, your place is really nice and the scenery is good. Let's go and take a look at the scenery."
Xu Guanzhong saw that it was difficult to persuade him to stay, so he said: "That's fine, you girls can do what you want. But, Jinxia, don't get into trouble with Li Si and Zhao Liu anymore. They are servants. If you meet them, Don’t use your fists or feet again.”
Jin Xia smiled and said: "That's natural. I have no enmity or enmity with them. As long as they don't disturb me, what should I do with him?!"
Xu Guanzhong said: "This is the best."
Jinxia, Yinxia, and Tongxia then stood up and left the lobby.
In the lobby, after Yan Qingfu took his seat, he turned to look at Jia Shizhong and said: "Brother Shizhong, I went to the capital last time to meet with my sister. I was at my sister's place and heard that the imperial court contacted the Jurchens and concluded an alliance. During the Song, Jin and Liao wars, Yanjing was a strategic location and would surely be hit in the future. In Xiao Yi’s opinion, it would be better for my brother to bring Yinzhi and Tiexia together and settle here, so that we can interact with each other. It’s also easy to take care of.”
Hearing this, Jia Shizhong said: "Thank you so much for your kindness, Brother Xiao Yi. I am really dissatisfied. Brother Xiao Yi said, a few days ago, my brother, I took Yinzhi, Jinxia and the others to Dayu Mountain to seek revenge from you. You went to Bianjing to visit your late brother." I only met brother Guanzhong. Brother Xiaoyi, of course I don’t have much to say here. It’s just that Yinzhi doesn’t seem to care about it on the surface. I don’t know what he thinks in his heart. This matter should be taken slowly. Take your time."
"Brother is right." Yan Qing said: "As for the grudge between Princess Yinzhi and me, it was forced by the situation and I had no choice. At that time, I was accompanying the imperial army to suppress the rebels in the south of the Yangtze River, and was ordered by the pioneer officer Song Jiang. , and Brother Chai Jin sneaked into Fangla Palace, Brother Chai Jin was recruited as the Prince Consort, and I was also named Prince Consort."
Jia Shizhong listened quietly to Yan Qing's explanation of the situation.
Yan Qing continued: "Brother, just imagine, the two armies are at odds with each other. In that case, what can I and brother Chai Jin do? Before the battle, my brother, a senior official, advised Princess Jinzhi to take shelter first, just in case. First, it is actually a strategy to protect Princess Jinzhi. However, due to different camps, it is difficult to explain the true situation clearly, so Princess Jinzhi cannot understand it. During the war, brother Chai Jin rebelled and killed Fang Jie. We led the army to break through. When we arrived at Fang La Palace, who would have expected that Princess Jinzhi actually hanged herself to death. Brother Chai Jin and I were extremely sad about this, so we protected Princess Yinzhi and the others from being surrounded, so what happened now happened."
Xu Guanzhong said: "Xiao Yi, I have explained this matter clearly to Jia Yishi, and Jia Yishi also understands it deeply."
"Understood, understood." Jia Shizhong continued: "Brother Xiaoyi, you are going to the south to visit me. Brother Guanzhong and I have agreed to buy some horses and send them to Dayu Mountain. At the critical moment, we can pull up a highly mobile force. cavalry team to fight with the Liao people. I came here this time and bought more than a hundred horses and sent them here. When I go back, I will buy some more horses, then mobilize Yinzhi and bring her here. My brothers You, by hiding from the world, you can protect yourself and have plenty of maneuverability."
When Yan Qing learned that Jia Shizhong had bought more than a hundred horses during this trip, he was very happy and said: "The strength of the Liao people is their cavalry. They have high mobility and can come and go freely. If we also have horses, we are afraid of them." What?! Since my brother has bought horses during this trip, Xiao Yi should go and have a look and be happy first."
After saying that, Yan Qing stood up and went to see the horse.
Seeing this, Xu Guanzhong and Jia Shizhong also stood up and accompanied Yan Qing out to watch the horses.
Yan Qing hurriedly walked out, and Xu Guanzhong and Jia Shizhong followed Yan Qing out of the lobby.
The three people walked out of the lobby, came to the door of the stable, and looked inside the stable.
In the horse stable, there are more than a hundred Saibei horses, with their manes and hooves flying, and they are full of energy.
Yan Qing was overjoyed to see it and said excitedly: "Ah! What a good horse! Come out quickly and get one and let me ride it around for a while."
After hearing this, Jia Shizhong went into the stable, grabbed a horse by its mane, and led it out.
Jia Shizhong pulled the horse to Yan Qing and asked Yan Qing: "These horses are not tamed. Can Xiao Yi ride this horse?"
Yan Qing looked at the horse, nodded, reached out and grabbed the horse's mane, turned over and sat on the horse, and said to Jia Shizhong: "Brother, let go, let's see Xiao Yi let it ride."
Jia Shizhong asked: "Brother, be careful, this is an untamed horse with a wild temper."
Yan Qing said: "Brother, just keep an eye on it!"
Immediately, Yan Qing grabbed the mane of the horse's neck with one hand and patted the horse's butt with the other hand. The horse neighed, jumped suddenly, and lifted its legs off the ground, almost throwing Yan Qing off the horse.
Jia Shizhong exclaimed: "Brother, be careful!"
Yan Qing grasped the horse's mane tightly, pressed her body against its back, and the horse began to gallop.
Fortunately, the plain on the top of the mountain was only a hundred acres in size. The horse ran to the edge of the mountain and suddenly stopped. Yan Qing patted the horse's face, and the horse came back carrying Yan Qing.
Arriving in front of the horse pen, Yan Qing turned over and dismounted, shouting: "Good! Great! What a good horse!"
Jia Shizhong said happily: "Brother Xiao Yi is really a god!" After saying that, he grabbed the mane around the horse's neck, patted the horse's butt, and drove the horse into the circle.
