Jiang Yanlin hurriedly replied: "Daxia Liu must have lived in the mountains and forests for a long time and is unaware of the affairs of the world in recent years. There have been several influential figures in Jiangnan in the past three years, all of them young geniuses. The first among them is my elder brother Lu Fengbai. According to legend, he was originally from Yangfeng Valley. It is enshrined to come out of the mountains and experience the land of Jiangnan."
Lin Manliu asked doubtfully: "Qianzhou Yangfeng Valley...?" He was thinking about the woman in white he met before, who said that he was a disciple of Yangfeng Valley. How could he still survive after entering Jiangnan? I heard about this strange sect.
Young Master's eyes lit up and he immediately responded: "This is the Yangfeng Valley in Qianzhou mentioned by Liu Daxia. At first, my eldest brother just often competed with others in martial arts. Later, he helped the strong and weak, robbed the rich and helped the poor. He killed many mountain bandits and became famous for a while. It was a big noise. Later, someone recognized that my eldest brother Lu Fengbai was actually the founding general. His family had a mansion in Hangzhou, and he is now regarded as the richest young man in the south of the Yangtze River."
(It is recommended to watch it together with the related work "Reminiscing about the Past in Jiangnan", related to Lu Fengbai)
The boy in a short shirt was speechless when faced with this plot. He was silent for a while and asked: "I mainly want to ask what the opening of the Lu Mansion means...".
Jiang Yanlin slapped the table at any time, looked at the young man in front of him seriously and said to him: "Master, let me tell you about my eldest brother's deeds first. My eldest brother has been singing all the way for the past three years, and my younger brother has also accepted some of them. For example, I These people are all going to celebrate the opening of the bank for the eldest brother, not to mention Brother Ye and Brother Xue who are wandering the world with the eldest brother."
The Brother Ye he mentioned should be the person with the same name as the master? Zeng Hui is also related to this Lu family. Could it be that when the master was wandering around in the south of the Yangtze River, he disguised himself as a man and fought with swords in the rivers and lakes! The boy in the short shirt suddenly became excited. This is his master, and he is as heroic as these men! I couldn't help but feel excited.
Mr. Jiang saw that this Liu Daxia was not replying, but he seemed to be interested, so he went straight to the topic and said: "At the beginning of April next month, the Lu Mansion will accept the wishes of my elder brother Lu Fengbai that it will no longer be a private residence, and he will transform it into a villa to invite the world. A talented person means he has to establish his own business."
"That's it. Thank you Mr. Jiang for clearing up the confusion. By the way, you can call me Liu, Brother Liu. I really don't dare to be a hero." Lin Manliu said in thanks with a cupped hand.
"Then call Brother Liu and come closer. I wonder where the caravan's goods are sent?" Jiang Yanlin replied quickly, fearing that he would miss this opportunity to ease the conflict.
"After we pass Huangshan, we will also pass by Hangzhou." The boy in a short shirt put down his tea bowl and looked at the young man named Jiang in front of him.
"What a coincidence! What a coincidence! Why don't we go together and take care of him on the way?" The young man clapped his hands on the table and applauded. The guard behind him tugged on his sleeves, which made him act normally again. He looks like a handsome young man who just entered the inn.
Upon seeing this, the young man in a short shirt looked at Yue Hanzhi beside him, but there was no response from the other party. He thought that it was a mistake to make up a random place, and then looked at the steward at the next table. The caravan steward met him, but Blink in response.
"Then let's go together, and we will set off soon," Lin Manliu said to Young Master Jiang in front of him.
"Okay! Let's set off. Those with broken legs and bleeding heads should go back to the city. They can't bear all these hardships and it's a burden to stay with me. Now I want to go far away to attend the banquet by myself. Naturally, I can't let you guys "It's because of the oil bottle," Jiang Yanlin said, looking at the guards who had just been injured by Brother Liu in front of him.
The few guards looked at each other and then supported each other towards Yuezhou City. Only a few relatively capable guards were left to follow him and continue eastward with the caravan.
At first Jiang Yanlin wanted to imitate Lin Manliu and walk together, but after walking only a few miles, the soles of his feet hurt, he said sorry to his brother Liu and returned to his car. Their carriages were much more luxurious than those of the caravans. Both the carriage compartment and the horses pulling the carriages were only seen in the homes of wealthy gentry.
Yue Hanzhi, who was sitting on the edge of the car, asked puzzledly: "Why did you agree to go with them?".
The boy in a short shirt walking beside the carriage and walking side by side with the woman in blue said: "The Lu Mansion he mentioned is the destination of my trip. It should be more convenient to go together to handle the follow-up matters." In fact, Lin Manliu didn't have it at the time. After thinking carefully, he said casually and was picked up by Jiang Yanlin.
The woman in blue just nodded and stopped talking. After a while, the boy asked again: "How is your injury?"
"It's only been a day, what can I do?" Yue Hanzhi replied casually, obviously a little carelessly.
"It's only two days' journey to Huangshan. I'm afraid you will still have difficulty walking to Jiangning alone. Why don't you come with me... let's go to Hangzhou first and then go to Jiangning." The boy in a short shirt turned to look at the woman in blue in front of him.
"What's wrong with your legs and feet? I'll get off the carriage and walk to show you in a moment. I'm annoyed that it's normal for you to talk to others like this. Why do you only come to me and have to talk about this and that first? Is there anything special about me that needs you like this?" Treat him like a special person." Yue Hanzhi finally looked into the face of the young man beside the carriage and said what he wanted to say.
The young man didn't reply for a long time. He sighed and continued to follow the caravan. Neither of them spoke much during the rest of the journey.
During the next two days of the trip, everyone drove normally during the day without encountering any trouble. At night, the caravan man and Lin Manliu took turns keeping watch, while Jiang Yanlin and their guards rested by themselves next to the camp.
March 23rd, light rain, the vernal equinox has passed
Everyone walked to the Huangshan area. Caravan carriages and escort carriages surnamed Jiang were walking together on the mountain road. The wheels squeezed the mud on the road, and from time to time some yellow mud splashes were scattered on both sides of the road.
There seemed to be a hint of joy in Lin Manliu's heart. He plucked up the courage to walk to the carriage again and said to the woman in blue who was hiding her face in a bamboo hat: "Yue Gu... It's going to rain now, why don't you come with us to Hangzhou first?" , go there to see some delicious and fun things, and how about going to Jiangning after the injury is better."
Yue Hanzhi held up the bamboo hat, hummed, looked at the young man next to him whose short shirt was slightly wet from the rain, and asked, "Why don't you wear a hemp straw?"
The boy in the short shirt was sure that the woman in blue was no longer as angry as before. He smiled and said, "I am stronger. This little rain will be fine. Uncle and the others also left some hemp straw to cover some important goods. I won't ask for it." ”.
"I was in a bad mood the past two days..." The woman in blue was about to explain the lectures she gave her two days ago.
"I also have some problems myself. Master has told me many times that I caused everyone to be too divided. My own problems are fine."
"good...".
"Um".
The caravan men around looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. How could they see young people bickering while escorting goods this time? Compared to the past, it was more fun, but there were also more dangers on this road. .
Yue Hanzhi's departure time was postponed a little longer, and he planned to enter Hangzhou with Lin Manliu and the rest of the caravan before heading to Jiangning on his own. The caravan also gradually expanded from a simple eastbound caravan with an accompanying boy at the beginning. They are now accompanied by a young man from a Yuezhou tycoon's family, and they are about to arrive at their final destination - Hangzhou.
