There are different teachings:
Time flies by, and the old vows and alliances are like a dream.
The horse neighs, the smoke and willows move, the beloved smiles in the spring breeze.
Ladies and gentlemen, these few lines of limerick are written by none other than Sheng Gong Fangla’s beloved daughter Fang Jinzhi, and her mood on this day.
In mid-June of the seventh year of Zhenghe, Cao Cao took his two brothers, Li Kui and Luan Tingyu, to bid farewell to the brigade at Mangdang Mountain, and rushed to Baizhang Village, Yishui County, Yizhou, Shandong Province to pick up Li Kui's wife. On the way, they met by chance at the university in Pengcheng County, Xuzhou. After making a fuss, he got acquainted with Deng Yuanjue and other heroes.
Although the two sides got along for a short time, they were deeply impressed by Lao Cao's talents in both civil and military affairs, his calm demeanor in the face of danger, his heroic yet gentle demeanor, and even the sibling advantages he took when designing a deceptive city gate... Engraved into a girl's heart.
When the two parties parted, Fang Jinzhi took the initiative to exchange swords, rode away with Lao Cao Feidian, made a promise to the south of the Yangtze River, and followed Deng Yuanjue and others back to his hometown. From then on, he only hoped that Cao Cao would fulfill his promise.
The girl has a pure heart. Although she is the daughter of a wealthy man, she does not know the dangers and deceit of the world. There are endless scumbags——
She only said what Lao Cao said on the left: "After I have finished a few important things at hand, I will go to Jiangnan to pay a visit to the Holy Duke." On the right: "Wu is by no means a person who breaks his word, and he will not let the girl wait in vain." They all came from the heart, so her heart and eyes were filled with the word "expectation", and she fought hard against Fang La's desire to find her in-laws.
Who is Fang La? After two troubles, I saw that my daughter already had a heart. I immediately remembered that when Deng Yuanjue reported before, he said that during his trip to the north, he met the famous "Wu Mengde" and received his great help. Then he thought about how good it would be for his daughter to ride back. Ma, who held the sword in his hand every day, immediately knew that his daughter had fallen in love with "Wu Mengde", and was very unhappy.
It wasn't because Lao Cao had no family, but because Liang Shan interrogated officials and beheaded Cai Jiu in Jiangzhou at that time, which caused a sensation in the world, but Li Kui let it slip in front of Shi Bao and others, claiming that it was all Lao Cao's fault. Cao Yili presided over it. Shi Bao and others only thought that Lao Cao was a hero who didn't care about fame and fortune. However, Fang La read something else and secretly thought: This person has become famous in just one or two years. How can he become famous if he really doesn't have a good reputation? So easy? He has one foot at the head of the officialdom, and the other among the strong men of Liangshan. This is a heroic gesture, and the goals in this man's heart must be not small.
Fang La really loved his daughter and wanted to find a kind and honest man who could take care of his daughter for the rest of her life. He never wanted her to marry an unpredictable hero, so he asked his wife and sister Fang Baihua to find Jin Zhi. Talking heart-to-heart, wanting to cut off the thread of love in her heart.
He originally thought that his daughter was pregnant when she accidentally met a luxurious man and fell in love with him. Unexpectedly, his wife and sister talked to Jin Zhi several times, and they all said that Fang Jinzhi was very affectionate and even waited for Lao Cao for several months without coming. I have given birth to the idea of going to Shandong to find him.
Fang La was angry and anxious, so he had to negotiate with his daughter in person, and bluntly pointed out that people like Lao Cao would not take her as a little girl to heart. You miss me here every day, but she is romantic and happy. You are my Fang La My dear daughter, if you put your hot face against your cold butt, wouldn’t it mean that even my old face will be ruined by you?
Fang Jinzhi naturally refused to believe it, but was provoked by her old father's words and made a bet: she would never take the initiative to find the other party. If the other party does not come for three years, it means that she really does not care about her, so she must honestly withdraw her thoughts and let her father choose. A good match gets married.
The eighth year of Zhenghe, the first year of Xuanhe, the second year of Xuanhe...
Spring breeze, summer rain, autumn moon and winter snow, unknowingly, the passing of time changes, and the girl's mind gradually becomes heavier with the passage of time.
The three-year bet was about to expire in a few months, and even Fang Jinzhi himself couldn't believe that Cao Cao would come to Jiangnan before the expiration.
She couldn't help but gradually panic. If Cao Cao really didn't come, would she have listened to her father's request and married someone else?
In the past three years, she has been thinking about it every day and looking forward to it at night. Her love is only more profound than three years ago. The love is so deep that it is hard to save it. How can it be said that it can be taken back?
So he secretly inquired about his idea. If Cao Cao didn't come, he would rather go back on his promise and offend his old father. He would also go to Shandong to find him. He asked him face to face: "You came to Jiangnan after telling you some important things at hand. Didn't you come to Jiangnan in three years?" Are you done with these things?"
If he really has no self in his heart and is just lying to others, is the daughter of a dignified saint allowed to be bullied? At least I have to give him a sword with my own hands... at least a slap in the ear to put an end to the unforgettable memories of the past three years.
Until a few days ago, Hangzhou sent a messenger to help Yuandong. It was said that Liangshan hero "Timely Rain" Song Jiang, leading a dozen brothers and hundreds of elite troops, came to Jiangnan to help in the battle. Fang Jinzhi happened to be on the spot and heard the word "Song Jiang" Hearing this, he was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed, and he jumped up and asked: "That Song Jiang is not tall, but he is majestic and majestic? The one who uses a branch as a weapon and carries a Qingluan sword with him? Among the brothers around him, are there a man named Luan Tingyu? And a man as strong as a black bear turned into a spirit, named Li Kui and Li Tieniu?"
However, the messenger had not met Lao Cao. It was Deng Yuanjue and others who met Cao Cao on Shibao Road and sent people back to the city to report the news. Fang Tianding sent this confidant as a messenger to report the news to Yuandong, so Fang Jinzhi's I can't answer any of the questions.
Seeing that he didn't know, Fang Jinzhi became impatient and wanted to go to Hangzhou in person, but Fang La stopped him: "What are you talking about? There is a 'timely rain' Song Jiang in Liangshan. When he went to Jiangzhou to attack, wasn't it just to save this person? The man surnamed Wu has long been the boss of the officials, and he has devoted himself to serving the dog court. He can hardly come to beat us. How dare he come to help us in person? Aren't he afraid that Tong Guan will see him and strip him of his official position?"
Last year, the imperial court sent people to discuss an alliance with the Kingdom of Jin, which was a secret move. Fang La and others were in Jianghu, and they only wondered that they had not heard about Cao Cao's actions in more than a year, but they did not know that he went to the Northern Kingdom as an envoy.
After scolding Fang Jinzhi, Fang La thought to himself: Although Liangshan and Wu Zhi are closely related, it is a matter behind the scenes after all. On the surface, Liangshan is still the only big force in the world that can rival the Mingjiao. Now that he has come from thousands of miles away to help, his face has indeed gained a lot of glory. Regardless of whether there is Wu Zhi's intention in it, he must treat him seriously.
Therefore, he ordered two generals, Fang Jie and Du Wei, to lead three thousand imperial troops to Hangzhou to welcome the heroes of Liangshan to meet in Muzhou.
After Fang Jie set out, for several days, Fang Jinzhi dreamed of Cao Cao, holding her Qingluan sword, and said to her with a smile: "This sword is too small for me to use. I still have a big one waiting for me to get it." You see..." Then he woke up, his face was red, and he couldn't speak for a long time, secretly blaming Fang Baihua in his heart——
Ever since she heard that she had a husband in her heart, she said a lot of shameful things under the guise of "I don't know how easy it is to be in trouble". Otherwise, when she dreamed about Cao Cao, they would mostly drink, ride horses, or travel around the mountains and rivers together. , or doing chivalry, how could you dream of these big and small ones?
On this day, I couldn't help feeling lovesick, and I thought to myself: This bad guy must have come to Jiangnan. Because of his status as an official, he also borrowed Song Jiang's name. If not, how could I keep dreaming of him?
So he gathered a group of female soldiers, and under the pretext of hunting to avoid his old father's eyes, he rushed out of Bangyuan Cave and spent the night at dawn, hoping to meet him on the road to Hangzhou.
Unexpectedly, when he crossed Wulong Ridge, he ran into a large group of imperial cavalry. Even his younger brother was captured by the enemy. If Tianding was not brave and warned in time, he would have almost been captured. Even so, he was chased to the sky with no way out. He had no choice but to run headlong into the dense forest.
However, the officers and soldiers behind were still chasing after them, and they heard a general ordering to shoot arrows. Then screams rang out one after another, and I felt great grief in my heart. I knew that the female soldier who had fallen behind had been poisoned. Fortunately, the forest was dense and there were many twists and turns. Although the army is good at shooting, aiming is not easy.
Fang Jinzhi was a good horseman and the most proficient in riding skills. He ran in front of the team and looked around. He recognized that this was the Yan Ziling Diao Tai area. It was the secluded place of Yan Guang, a noble scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Seven or eight years ago, he gathered the heroes here. I had brought her here before, and I still remember that there was a small peak not far away, about twenty or thirty feet high, standing majestically on the river, and quite steep. Fang Qifu once competed with others there to compete in Qinggong. He couldn't help but feel happy, and he was busy leading the crowd. The female soldier ran.
He arrived not long after, and hurriedly called all the girls to dismount, took their bows and arrows, and climbed up the peak hand and foot. Although the area above the peak was only three to four feet, she felt that it was spacious for more than ten girls.
Fang Jinzhi finally calmed down from the shock. When he counted the number of people, he saw that it had been broken into half, and he couldn't help crying.
Before he could catch his breath, the pursuers had already arrived, and they surrounded the small peak. Without the need for the general to call, hundreds of people dismounted first, holding daggers in their mouths, and climbed up. Fang Jinzhi gritted his teeth and shouted: "Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow, shoot to death." Kill them and avenge the sisters."
They sneaked out of Bangyuan Cave in the name of hunting, but everyone brought bows and arrows, and these women followed Fang Jinzhi in the Whistling Mountains every day. Although they were not proficient in riding skills, they were good at bows and arrows, and they occupied a commanding position. The terrain was indiscriminately shot, and seven or eight of the Western troops were killed. The rest were afraid and retreated.
Xin Xingzong was injured and could not ride a fast horse, so he kept following behind. When he arrived, he saw the girls hiding on the mountain peak, and there was no way, so they could only climb. He was so angry that he cursed a few words and rolled his eyes. They turned around and dragged several women who were still alive after being shot off their horses along the way to the foot of the mountain, threatening Fang Jinzhi and others to surrender.
Fang Jinzhi and others naturally refused to come down. Xin Xingzong laughed evilly, pointed at a few women and said: "The women in the south are really smart. Since they won't surrender, let my sons have fun."
Those Western troops were overjoyed, and those who were eager immediately took off their armor and clothes, and touched them with their hands. The captured women were so frightened that they cried loudly. The women on the mountain also cried loudly when they saw that their companions were going to be tortured like this.
Amid the cries, Fang Jinzhi was heard shouting: "Sisters, Jinzhi is incompetent and it affects you. This debt will have to be repaid in the next life!"
With red eyes, she gritted her silver teeth, drew her bowstring, and shot four arrows in a row, killing all the four captives at the foot of the mountain.
A few years ago, although she could draw a bow and shoot arrows, she had never been able to shoot arrows like this. She had learned that Lao Cao's wife was the daughter of the Hu family in Dulonggang, Yanggu County. She was outstanding in martial arts and was nicknamed "Lao Cao". The name "Yizhang Qing" stimulated Fang Jinzhi and said to her aunt Fang Baihua: "My name is 'Qing Fenghuang', so she will be called 'Yizhang Qing'. It seems that we are destined to be enemies. Humph, we will marry him in the future." , were unhappy with each other and started fighting, if I lose, won’t it make brother Wu Zhi feel bad?” Since then, I have studied martial arts with all my heart, and have made great progress in swordsmanship and archery.
Xin Xingzong did not expect that she actually had such shooting skills. He was so frightened that he took a few steps back and asked several sergeants to protect him with shields. Only then did he feel relieved.
At this time, he knew that the other party was not Fang Baihua, so he no longer wanted to capture him alive. There were Fang La's children on both sides. Winning Fang Tianding was already a great contribution. A mere daughter was just an addition, so there was no need to take risks.
But he can't let her go like this, otherwise if he attracts a large army, wouldn't it ruin his affairs? Just kill them in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles.
With a sneer, he immediately ordered people to set fire to the peak - the peak was covered with dense vines and bushes. Once it burned, it would be a pillar of fire reaching the sky. If the people on it didn't want to be burned to death, they would have no choice but to jump into the river.
It's a pity that he grew up in a land with little rain in the northwest and didn't know the customs of the south of the Yangtze River. It was already humid and rainy here, and it just happened to rain yesterday. The trees and mud were more watery than Niu'er, and the Western Army didn't carry kerosene or anything like that. There are some fire tricks, but it will be difficult to light this fire even if I am busy tomorrow.
Sure enough, after all the troops spent a long time trying, they could only burn a few pieces of bark black.
At this time, the sky was getting dark. Xin Xingzong knew that the longer the delay, the more likely things would go wrong. He became more and more anxious and had to think of another strategy.
But I heard him say gloomily: "Miss Fang, you may not know that our 150,000 elite Western Army went south, moving like thunder, and recaptured Hangzhou a few days ago. Your family's Fang Qifu and other bandit leaders were either killed or killed. After being captured, Mu and She are now in the thief's nest, and they will recover it in a blink of an eye. If they respond, none of the thieves will be able to escape, but..."
When Xin Xingzong said this, he forced a smile and said with a smile: "Xin is a good person with the kindest heart. I think your father and brother are rebelling. How can you, a weak woman, know about it in the boudoir? So I have good intentions. , willing to leave a way for you to survive——
"I am the most honorable person in front of Tong Shuai. If you are willing to come down and surrender on your own, I will intercede for you and forgive your previous sins. If you are unwilling to listen, haha, those male rebels will suffer the consequences if they are caught by the law. Torture, as for you waiting for a woman, you can think about it yourself."
When Fang Jinzhi heard that Hangzhou had been captured, she was shocked and frightened - her brother was still in the hands of this person. Naturally, she did not doubt the lie and couldn't help but said: "Did you also capture the man named Song Jiang from Liangshan?"
"Liangshan Songjiang?" cut."
Fang Jinzhi was shocked and angry, and said in a trembling voice: "Nonsense, you can kill him! What do you think he looks like?"
Xin Xingzong didn't know what he looked like, so he immediately said angrily: "Xin killed countless bandits in Liangshan. Who remembers their appearance one by one? To tell you the truth, I killed Song Jiang because he confessed to it after the Liangshan bandits were captured. Otherwise, I, a great general of the imperial court, would have to ask him the name of the bandit?"
Seeing that he was sure, Fang Jinzhi immediately trembled even more, shook his head and said: "No, no, how could a hero like him be killed by you so easily! Ah, I see, it turns out that this time he really came here The only one is Song Jiang himself..."
Xin Xingzong couldn't help but wonder: Fang La's children are so worthless, has this little girl been frightened crazy by my few words?
Fang Jinzhi felt relieved when she thought that Song Jiang might be Song Jiang, but when she thought that she was in a desperate situation, most likely dead or not, even if Cao Cao came to Jiangnan in the future, it would be difficult to find him, and she couldn't help but feel sad, and shed tears. , dropped like a disconnect.
Jinzhi's cry faintly came down from the peak. Fang Tianding heard it and was very sad——
He and Fang Jinzhi have a very deep brother-sister relationship. Fang La has always been strict with him. From childhood to adulthood, if he did anything unsatisfactory, he would be beaten. Therefore, he was filled with fear when he saw Fang La. Even when he saw Fang Qifu and others, he was also ordinary. , because these people will tell Fang La about his words and deeds.
Only Fang Jinzhi, whenever she saw him being beaten since she was a child, would rush forward to protect her, crying and shouting: "Don't hit your brother, don't hit my brother." Fang La cherished his daughter and often let him go.
As time passed, he was only close to this sister in his heart. If he had any concerns, he would only tell her to her. At this moment, when he heard his sister crying, he suddenly thought of a possibility - oh, could it be that Song Jiang is actually the person my sister likes? Came under a pseudonym?
Thinking about it more carefully, according to the rules of the world, Song Jiang, who came to represent Liangshan, should be regarded as a peer of Fang La. However, when he saw him, he refused to consider himself an elder and insisted on calling himself brother. He also said that he was a heroic person. It turned out that he was trying to please his brother-in-law in advance!
For a moment, he didn't care about much, and shouted loudly: "Sister, don't cry. When I left, Song Jiang led the troops to rescue Uncle Qifu. There are many good men around him, so he is very safe. This man named Xin, although he has the ability to capture me, How can I deal with Song Jiang..."
Before he finished speaking, Xin Xingzong strode over and kicked him so hard that he flew several feet away.
Li Tianyou was furious. He was tied up, but his feet could move freely. He immediately knocked away the officers and soldiers around him, ran up, kicked Xin Xingzong hard on the back of the head.
His kick was filled with hatred, and Xin Xingzong was unprepared. Even though he was wearing a hoodie, his eyes were blackened by the kick. A dog fell down after grabbing feces, and his two front teeth were instantly broken.
Li Tianyou laughed wildly and said: "The eldest prince, Princess Jinzhi, I will be angry with you in the end!" He started to kick again, but several officers and soldiers rushed towards him and crushed him.
The soul of Xin Xingzong's personal soldier flew into the sky, and he quickly went to help him up. His mouth was full of blood, and his eyes were full of fury and ferocious looks. He pulled out his personal sword and caught up with the previous one. Li Tianyou gritted his teeth and groaned, and one of his right legs was struck by him. Cut off at knee level.
Xin Xingzong kicked away several officers and soldiers who were suppressing Li Tianyou. Without saying a word, he slashed randomly with his knife, cutting off both legs and arms of Li Tianyou.
Li Tianyou was still holding on, but when he cut his arm, he couldn't hold it back anymore. He screamed in pain and yelled: "Come on, come on. Grandpa is waiting for you on Huangquan Road. My brother is Li Tianrun." Generalissimo, he will cut you into pieces to avenge me!"
Xin Xingzong shouted ferociously: "I will send your brother to see you soon!" He waved his sword and cut off Li Tianyou's head.
Li Tianyou was only two or three years older than Fang Tianding. They grew up in the same place. Fang Tianding was unwilling to pay attention to martial arts and was often beaten. Li Tianyou once comforted him: "If you don't want to learn, just don't learn. Wait until I master martial arts." To protect you, anyone who wants to bully you will kill me first."
Now he really died to protect him. Fang Tianding witnessed it with his own eyes. He was filled with grief and fear. He fell to the ground and urinated in his crotch.
Xin Xingzong beheaded Li Tianyou in pieces. Still angry, he stepped forward and put the knife on Fang Tianding's neck, shouting: "Young girl named Fang, if you don't come down and surrender, I will chop your brother to pieces as well."
Fang Jinzhi was almost stupid with fright, but Fang Tianding burst into tears, pushed forward and knocked away Xin Xingzong, howling at the top of his lungs: "Don't come down, ignore him, he came here specially to catch me, and if he kills me, he will lose all the credit, he You must not dare to..."
Before he finished speaking, Xin Xingzong knocked him unconscious with the back of his sword. Fang Jinzhi only said that his younger brother had been killed by him. While crying, he took out his bow and arrow and shot Xin Xingzong. : "Surround us and send people to patrol in all directions. This place is far away from the main road. No one will be able to find us for a while. I am exhausted with these women. I will starve them for two days and wait until she can't pull her away." When I draw the bow, it naturally cannot escape my hand."
After two days of this, Fang Jinzhi and others had no food or water, so they had to pick some leaves to eat. The leaves were bitter and astringent and extremely difficult to swallow. Xin Xingzong also had people secretly climb the mountain from time to time. All the girls did not dare to close their eyes. When the sun came down, there were not many arrows left, and the people were exhausted.
Xin Xingzong and others were at the foot of the peak, setting up wooden tents and taking turns on duty, but they were still very energetic. They had eaten all the dry food they had brought with them that day. , the rest is up to you."
The Western soldiers screamed in unison and climbed up on three sides. After Fang Jinzhi and others finished shooting arrows, they all cried and pulled out their daggers, slashing in all directions to prevent the Western soldiers from ascending the peak.
Fang Jinzhi slashed several times but was dodged. She felt increasingly weak. At this time, she calmed down and said hoarsely: "Sisters, I would rather die than be humiliated. Don't be afraid. Follow me to get rich." Jumping in the spring river."
Xin Xingzong saw movement at the foot of the peak, rolled his eyes, and shouted: "Listen to the ladies above, you catch Fang La's daughter, I will spare your life, and I will not let the soldiers rape you, so I will let you go..."
Fang Jinzhi's heart trembled. At this time, he didn't care whether his sisters would betray him. He turned around and was about to jump into the river first. Fang ran two steps and was suddenly hugged tightly by several hands. Fang Jinzhi was shocked and cried. : "How could you treat me like this..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard several women chirping in his ears: "Don't be afraid, princess, look over there quickly!"
Fang Jinzhi was stunned and looked subconsciously, only to see the officers and soldiers retreating like a tide in the dense forest in the northwest corner. Hundreds of elite soldiers came over like wolves and tigers to kill them. Then, a voice that had only sounded in his dreams for several years suddenly sounded. , his voice boomed, almost resounding throughout the valley: "Don't be afraid, Miss Jinzhi, Wu will come to Jiangnan to see you!"
This is exactly what it is: life and death hang at a critical line in front of the cliff, and there is a loud noise in the forest. The girl's mind is still cold, how can Wu Lang be willing to betray his former alliance?
The 6,000-word chapter feels relatively neat and can’t be divided into two chapters.
Brother Xia Shiren asked a question: Jin Zhi is over 20 years old, why is she the younger sister?
This loophole is my fault, so the whole text has been changed to sister. The sister takes care of the younger brother, so the relationship is very good, and it is more reasonable. I apologize for the inconvenience caused by this change.
(End of chapter)
