Chapter fifty-seven [escort]

"Jiang Fengliu came with promise and brought a lucky ship for Brother Zhao."

"Ouyang Guanhou came to the fore and brought news to the Zhao brothers that the Mengren Baihu Bagen."

The above two great news is no match for the shock caused by the appearance of the third person.

"Song minister Wen Tianxiang thanked the righteous men for helping him."

When Wen Tianxiang, who was wearing a round-necked blue shirt and a light green square scarf on his head, and was elegant and majestic, thanked everyone, except Zhao Lie, Ma Nanchun and Jueyuan, each replied in a way that suited him. The other people had too low status and knelt down, clasped their fists or kowtowed.

Wen Tianxiang is an orthodox Confucian scholar who pays attention to etiquette the most. Confucianism has a hundred words and thousands of words and thousands of great ways. The core is the word ritual.

Ma Nanchun himself was a fourth-rank senior official in the court, so it was normal for him to meet with his colleagues. Jueyuan was a person outside the world, and it was reasonable to worship Buddha and not sentient beings. The Song Dynasty did not promote kneeling rituals, but the two identities were too far apart. One was the prime minister of the dynasty, and the other was the common people, and the latter was the right to kneel down and worship.

Almost everyone has no problem with returning gifts, except for one person - Zhao Lie.

Strictly speaking, Zhao Lie is just a commoner, just like the Ding brothers, Shi Yang, Wang Ping'an, Yang Zheng and others. Faced with the gift from a dignified prime minister, he had to kneel down and hold his fists. However, Zhao Lie just bowed and bowed, just like that.

Ma Nanchun and Wen Tianxiang were both officials in the same dynasty, and he was also a Confucian scholar. He knew a lot about the Prime Minister's temperament, and he thought it was broken. He knew that Zhao Lie was always in a state of affairs and knew that this person did not know etiquette. If Wen Tianxiang had not appeared too suddenly, he should have fulfilled his obligation to remind him. Now he can only use Zhao Lie as a monk to resolve it.

Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou did not expect that Zhao Lieyi, a commoner, would meet the prime minister of the dynasty like a duke and marquis, and all shook their heads secretly - this person was respectful and rude, was he arrogant and rude? Did he come here wrong?

To the surprise of the three, Wen Tianxiang's original face did sink a little, with signs of a whispering sleeve, but was soon replaced by a surprised expression. Then, the look of surprise in his eyes became increasingly strong, and he suddenly asked, "Who is Zhao Yishi?"

Zhao Lie didn't know why Wen Tianxiang was interested in his hometown, and he didn't know what his hometown was called in this era, so he vaguely said: "Jiangxi."

Wen Tianxiang nodded secretly, and then asked a stranger question: "Did Yishi Zhao know Wen before?"

Zhao Lie blinked: "This...if this 'formerly' refers to half a month ago, then you can recognize it. What do you think of the Prime Minister?"

Wen Tianxiang looked at Zhao Lie for a while and smiled heartily, "That's it." He looked around at the surrounding environment, but he stopped mentioning the rude things.

Of course, Zhao Lie would not think that Wen Tianxiang and others made a special trip to visit his life-savior, so why did they come from this trip?

Ouyang Guanhou raised his thumb: "Brother Zhao is really amazing. With the power of just eight people, he defeated hundreds of Chaoyang thieves, and would cause harm to one side. Chen Yi, a stubborn gangster who has been rampant in Fujian and Guangxi for many years, killed..."

It seems that the news spread quite quickly. Chen Yi once caused serious losses to Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou and other heroes of gathering, which can be said to be a mortal enemy. Zhao Lie killed the confidant of this hero of Fujian Guang. Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou came to thank Ziyi, which was reasonable, and sent a promise to warship and inquire about the news, which was also the only meaning in the question.

But why did Wen Tianxiang come too? The prime minister of the Song Dynasty is not as good as this.

Jiang Fenglie didn't go around the circle and said directly: "We will mainly escort the Prime Minister in this trip to find the Empress Dowager's Holy Deportivo... "

Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou did not avoid difficulties and crossed the enemy nets and escorted Wen Tianxiang to Yashan. Of course, he did not come to visit or thank Zhao Lie, the savior, but had important things to entrust.

At that time, it was nearly two months since the fierce Yashan Battle. Song Hai's dynasty had been destroyed. Only a few generals such as Zhang Shijie, Su Liuyi and others led their troops to escort Queen Mother Yang and some court officials to flee and hide on an isolated island on the sea.

Although the Yuan army led by Zhang Hongfan knew that this part of the remnants of the Song Dynasty would have to hide on an island, the vast sea and islands were scattered. With the search ability of this era, it would be no easy task to find it in the short term.

After nearly a month of investigation after the war, Zhang Hongfan also wiped out several remnants of the Song army, seized more than ten large and large ships, but never caught the two big fish he wanted to catch: Empress Dowager Yang and Zhang Shijie.

Nearly 100,000 troops were chewed by horses, and there were still a large number of ships to maintain. In order to chase a small group of remaining troops, it was really hard to withstand it. So Zhang Hongfan handed over the post-war affairs to the deputy chief Marshal Li Heng, and led the army to the north. Of course, there was still an inconvenience to announce the truth about his inability to tell the truth, that is, he used his great achievements to destroy Song and imprison his eldest son Zhang Gui, and even fled to the death of the Prime Minister Song for personal gain.

As the Yuan army pulled away, the entire South China Sea was much calmer, and the fishermen recruited along the coast moved back one after another, and the number of ships searched at sea was greatly reduced. The wind was strong, and Ouyang Guanhou was able to send Wen Tianxiang to Yashan safely. Of course, their destination was not Yashan, but the location of the last journey of Song Dynasty.

"We have contacted the envoy Zhang Shu and Su Dianshu. They will send ships to meet with the Empress Dowager when we arrive in the Chaozhou Sea. But after entering Guangdong Sea, the more we go south, the more the Yuan army searches. We are worried that we will be intercepted by the Yuan army before we can get along with the Song army. Liefeng and Guan Hou are just ordinary men. They will die in the battlefield. It is a wish for life, but the Prime Minister is the pillar of the country and cannot be missed. Therefore, Brother Zhao is asked to help with his help and escort the Prime Minister to the Chaozhou. How about it?"

After listening to Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou's story, Zhao Lie suddenly realized. No wonder, it turned out that he learned that he defeated the pirates with a huge gap in strength and killed the thief chief. He was looking for help.

Finally, Jiang Fenglie added another sentence: "With such talent from Brother Zhao, he had the merit of saving the prime minister in the past and then the merits of destroying pirates. When he went to the court, he would be rewarded for his merits and titles and generals. His future was unlimited."

Zhao Lie rolled his eyes in his heart. What kind of future is unlimited? You think this is the beginning of the founding of the country. A dynasty has no future, who else can you want to protect? However, Jiang Fenglie said at least one sentence, Wen Tianxiang really cannot be missed. He finally rescued the person and changed his history a little, but don’t be captured by the Yuan soldiers halfway and let history return to the starting point. Then wouldn’t he be in vain? Anyway, except for training, it seems that nothing is wrong, so let’s do your best for this man.

"Okay, I'll arrange it and then go with you-what's the destination?"

When asked about the destination, this matter was decided. Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other and said, "Guangya, Qianao."
