One Piece of Song Dynasty

Liang Hongyu looked at Li Xin with suspicious eyes and asked, "Did the official send Miss Qinglian and Commander Liang on purpose?"

Li Xin laughed and said, "That's really not true. Whoever was selected was decided by lots."

Liang Hongyu said: "Well, it seems that there is also Tianxiang Tower in Liao Kingdom."

Li Xin waved his hand and said: "No, no, there is no Tianxiang Tower in Liao Kingdom, only Shuixianju. If the names are the same, it will easily arouse suspicion. I still understand this principle."

After Liang Hongyu wrote her reply, Li Xin read it and sent it out.

A few days later, Liang Xing received a reply from Li Xin. After reading the letter, Liang Xing called Niu San: "Niu San, go and notify Sun Xing and ask him to stop action after completing the current horse transaction, and notify him again by the way." Vice Commander Zhao asked him to come over in the evening."

Niu San cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Mr. Lang, I understand."

After Niu San left, Liang Xing took the letter to Qinglian and said, "Qinglian, your Excellency has replied."

Qinglian asked: "What do you say, sir?"

Liang Xing replied: "The adults don't agree to send you back now. The reason is the same as what you said. The children are too young to travel long distances. However, the adults have told me to wait until the children are one and a half years old next year before sending you back. "

Qinglian said: "My lord, wait until next year to send Lei'er back by yourself. The slave family and Hanxing will stay with you. Hanxing is getting bigger and bigger, so they won't drag you down, and neither will the slave family. "

Liang Xing said seriously: "No, you all have to leave. Only when you leave can you work with peace of mind. This matter is not negotiable."

Qinglian cried and said: "If I don't leave, I don't know when I can go back. If I don't leave, I don't want to stay alone in my empty boudoir and endure the pain of lovesickness."

Liang Xing sighed: "Qinglian, you'd better leave. What will happen if Lei'er gets there if you don't leave?"

Qinglian said: "There are father and mother over there, as well as adults. They will take good care of Lei'er. Anyway, the slave family will not leave next year. If the officials forcefully drive away the slave family, the slave family will not survive."

At this time, Han Xing also ran out and grabbed Liang Xing's trouser leg and said angrily: "Daddy wants to send Han Xing away? If Han Xing doesn't leave, Han Xing wants to be with daddy."

Liang Xing picked up Han Xing and said, "If you don't leave, it will be dangerous to follow dad."

Han Xing said coquettishly: "If Han Xing doesn't leave, Han Xing just wants to be with daddy."

Qinglian wiped away her tears and said, "You see, your child is not willing to leave you."

Liang Xing surrendered and said, "Okay, okay, let's discuss this issue later."

In the evening, Zhao Yun came over quietly after receiving the letter. When he saw Liang Xing, he couldn't wait to say: "Your Excellency has received a letter."

Liang Xing nodded and said, "Yes, your Excellency has replied."

Zhao Yun asked: "What does the letter say?"

Liang Xing replied: "Your Excellency asked a certain person to suspend horse trading, and also asked a certain person to be prepared to close Shuixianju at any time, as well as your shop over there."

Zhao Yun thought for a while and said: "Horse trading really needs to stop. It will become more and more dangerous if it doesn't stop. But how can we maintain the activities of the entire secret spy network if Shuixianju and shops are stopped."

Liang Xing waved his hand and said: "It's not as serious as what Brother Zhao said. Brother Zhao should know the earning power of Tianxiang Tower. Narcissus Residence is not much worse than it. Even if we stop Narcissus Residence and shops now, we can only rely on Narcissus Residence." The money I earned before I was enough to last us at least ten years."

Zhao Yun said: "That way I don't have to worry anymore. The shops here are not as profitable as your Shuixianju. We are short of money. Brother Liang, you have to support me."

Liang Xing replied: "No problem. When Brother Zhao needs money, just send someone to tell him directly. Besides, Shuixianju and the shops will not stop immediately. Even if they stop, they will not stop forever. We will wait for the situation." It will definitely reopen once it stabilizes."

Zhao Yun asked: "Your Majesty didn't tell us when to stop."

Liang Xing replied: "I didn't say. Your Excellency asked us to decide according to the situation, but I estimate it should be next year."

Zhao Yun was surprised and said: "Oh, is this why Brother Liang has heard something?"

Liang Xing said: "My lord told me. Although my lord did not tell us when to stop in the letter, we did tell you a certain important piece of news. Next year, the imperial court will send troops to the Northern Expedition to Yanyun."

Zhao Yun took a breath and said, "This is true."

Liang Xing nodded and said: "Of course this is true. What my lord said could be false. Your lord's letter said that the imperial court was supposed to send an army to the north to attack Yanyun this year. However, due to the peasant uprising in the southeast, the army that was supposed to go to the north to attack Yanyun was He was sent to suppress the peasant rebels, so it was delayed.”

Zhao Yun asked: "What do you want us to do? Do we need to cooperate with the imperial army?"

Liang Xing shook his head and said: "Your Excellency asks us not to do anything, and not to expose our identity and take the initiative to contact the imperial army. We only need to evaluate the combat power of the imperial army."

Zhao Yun nodded and said, "That's right. We are acting as spies here on our own initiative without the permission of the court. If we are discovered, it will be a crime of beheading."

Liang Xing said: "And I also saw from your letter that your Excellency does not seem to be optimistic about the imperial court's Northern Expedition."

Zhao Yun said thoughtfully: "Well, it seems that the situation in the Liao Kingdom will be very serious next year. The Jin Kingdom and the imperial court will advance from the north to the south."

Liang Xing nodded and said: "So next year is the time for us to close Shuixianju and shops."

Zhao Yun asked: "Well, Brother Liang, how are things going with my sister-in-law and the children?"

Liang Xing scratched his head and said: "I am having a headache about this matter. I have asked the adults for their opinions. The adults do not agree to send Qinglian and the child back now. They say that Lei'er is too young to travel long distances. The adults said to wait until next year. Send them back when Lei'er is one and a half years old."

Zhao Yun said: "But next year when the imperial court launches its northern expedition to Yanyun, wouldn't it be very dangerous here? How can we send it off then?"

Liang Xing replied: "Your Excellency said it is not that dangerous. Even if Yanyun is captured by the imperial army, in order to better rule Yanyun, the imperial army will not act recklessly."

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "That's true. Brother Liang, what else do you have to worry about?"

Liang Xing sighed and said, "Your sister-in-law doesn't want to leave. Qinglian just wants to send Lei'er away next year, and she and Han Xing will stay."

Zhao Yun was shocked: "How is this possible? This will be very dangerous in the future."

Liang Xing said: "I told you, but they didn't listen. Qinglian said that she had figured it out in the past two years. We were working as spies in the Liao Kingdom and we don't know when we can go back. She doesn't want to be alone." She takes the children to guard the empty boudoir alone every day, and we as spies are also easily in danger. She is afraid that she will never see X again."

Zhao Yun sighed: "Oh, it's not easy for my sister-in-law. It's normal for her to have such thoughts."
