Little Twins and Little Healer

Although the Leiting Escort was established only ten years ago, its scale is already comparable to some old escorts with a history of one hundred years because of the backing of the Wei family and the Thunder Army.

Escort has a good reputation and a lot of business, so the annual profit is naturally very considerable.

Therefore, they rented yards in each post station as a stronghold with their wealth and wealth, and they all chose the most expensive and best locations.

County Captain Lu led the crowd through the announcement wall.

In front of it is a long street with various shops, most of which are taverns.

Lu Xianwei introduced: "This is the place to eat, walk through this street, and the back is the place to live."

Sure enough, after turning this street, there are rows of small courtyards with single-family houses behind.

In the first courtyard, there was a signboard of the Thunder Bodyguard Bureau on the door. The courtyard door was wide open, and there was a lot of noise inside, and someone shouted loudly, "It's green, it's green!".

Lieutenant Lu went straight to the gate and shouted loudly, "Brother Xiang, I'm looking for you!"

"Who called me?" Someone inside responded, and then a big shirtless man in his thirties ran out of the yard.

Seeing Lieutenant Lu, the big man excitedly stepped forward and hugged him, "Brother Lu, how do you know I'm here today?" He pulled Lieutenant Lu and walked in, "Come here, come in quickly, here you go!" You see something rare."

"You guys come in too." Captain Lu turned his head and said to the three people behind him.

"Brother Lu also brought friends here, I—I—" The big man opened his mouth wide and looked at Bai Ziren with an expression of being overwhelmed.

"Brother Xiang, brother Xiang?" Captain Lu held his shoulder and shook him vigorously.

"Ah? Ah!" The big man uttered a few meaningless syllables, and then opened his mouth, "This, this——" He was still speechless.

Lu Xianwei suddenly slapped him on the back.

"Cough-cough--Lu-cough-brother" the big man coughed and said, "Why did you hit me?"

Lu Xianwei said: "I'm here to wake you up."

"Okay, I'm awake." He patted himself on the head hard to show that he was really awake, then he walked around the county captain Lu and walked in front of Bai Ziren, "Xiang Mingda, what is the name of this young master? "

Bai Ziren: What if I have another urge to roll up my sleeves?

Tao Wenyu, Huang Linzhen: Can't you see that there are two young masters by the side?

Seeing Bai Ziren ignore him, Xiang Mingda didn't feel embarrassed, but said cheerfully: "Young master, please come in, please come in!"

Lu Xianwei pulled Xiang Mingda away and entered the courtyard first, followed by Bai Ziren and the other three.

Turning around the screen wall, I saw a group of people surrounded by the yard, all stretching their necks to look in the middle.

Xiang Mingda shouted: "Brothers, here are the guests, welcome!"

A group of people turned their heads in unison, and then there was silence.

While everyone was in a daze, Xiang Mingda pushed aside the crowd and squeezed out a passage, "Come on, let me show you something rare."

Lu Xianwei and the others walked over without knowing why, and saw a pile of gray-black stones on the ground, both large and small, with different shapes.

In the middle sat a man, who was sanding a small stone with sandpaper, and next to him were some tools, even a large guillotine knife.

When Bai Ziren saw this scene, his first reaction was to bet on stones.

"Brother Shi, is it out yet?" Xiang Mingda asked.

Shi Zhuo was still concentrating on polishing the stone in his hand, upon hearing this, he said without raising his head, "Wait a minute, it will be rubbed out immediately."

Lieutenant Lu looked at it for a long time and couldn't understand, so he asked, "Brother Xiang, what is he doing?"

"He's cracking stones." Xiang Mingda pointed to the stones on the ground and said, "These were all brought from Kuncheng. These are not ordinary stones. There are emeralds in them."

"Look at the piece in his hand. Just before you came, you can already see the green color. After he finishes rubbing it, the emerald will come out."

"Oh." Lieutenant Lu was not interested. He was not interested in these jewelry. His wife had a lot of jade jewelry, bracelets, earrings, necklaces and so on.

"Brother Xiang, let's come back later and don't disturb others here. I have something to ask you."

"Okay, let's talk in the room." Xiang Mingda said, "The three young masters also go into the room and have a rest."

……

"Brother Xiang, I'm here this time because I want them to come to Beijing with Thunder Bodyguard.

There were only three of them, and there were not many salutes.Mr. Bai and Mr. Tao share a carriage, and Mr. Tao can drive by himself.Doctor Huang also rides a horse by himself.You don't need to worry too much, just take care of it a little on the way. "

"Okay, no problem, I'll take care of it. Make sure to send them to the capital safely." What a joy it is to be able to walk with the beauty all the way.

Xiang Mingda took a royal blue robe and put it on himself.

"As for the escort fee, brother Xiang, how much do you think is suitable?" Lu Xianwei asked.

"No more, Brother Lu's friend, I'm the head of the escort, so I have the final say on what escort fee to charge." Xiang Mingda, who was dressed, puffed out his chest proudly.

Lieutenant Lu slapped him across the face, "What are you pretending to do with me, as if I don't understand the rules of the Thunder Bodyguard Bureau. Now if you say no, you'll definitely have to pay for it by yourself in the end."

He said: "Hurry up, quickly negotiate a price, don't worry about mother-in-law."

Xiang Mingda saw that he could no longer pretend to be a fat man in front of the beauty, so he could only say, "Three people, no goods, and their own carriages and horses. In this case, the minimum charge will be charged. One person will charge 50 taels of silver, and the escort on the road will be responsible for food and lodging."

"Okay." County Captain Lu took out two banknotes and handed them to Xiang Mingda, "The three of them, please take care of you along the way, especially Mr. Bai, he is not in good health, you should pay more attention."

"Don't worry!" Xiang Mingda thumped his chest twice with his fist, "I will take good care of Mr. Bai!"

Bai Ziren: I don't need your care.

Tao Wenyu: Someone wants to take my job.

……

Lieutenant Lu entrusted him well and went back with peace of mind.

Tao Wenyu and Huang Linzhen went to the assigned room to put their luggage. The three of them will stay at the inn for one night today and leave early tomorrow morning.

Bai Ziren was entangled by Xiang Mingda and couldn't get away, so he could only sit in the living room and wait.

Xiang Mingda chattered endlessly while circling around him.

In the end, Bai Ziren couldn't take it anymore, and rolled up his sleeves to show him, "I'm not Shuang'er."

Xiang Mingda chuckled, "I don't mean anything else. I just want to talk to you because you look good."

Bai Ziren: Rolling up your sleeves for nothing.

Seeing that he couldn't drive him away anyway, he decided to let him say something useful.

"Has Captain Xiang been to many places?" Bai Ziren asked.

"That's right, we run outside every day." Xiang Mingda said, "Our three teams took the North-South route. From the capital to Yunzhou, I have been to all the places along the way. Where is the fun? I know, if Mr. Bai is interested, we can..."

Bai Ziren decisively interrupted his invitation, and asked: "Xiang Biaotou, are the stations in other places the same as the Qingmen station?"

"Stay station?" Xiang Mingda said, "Yes, all post stations are the same."

"All the post stations were built by Lei Tingjun. The layout is exactly the same, and the later expansion is also based on the previous layout."

"Oh? Why did the Lei Ting army build the station? Shouldn't the army go to war?" Bai Ziren asked.

"Mr. Bai, as soon as I heard your question, I knew that you didn't study hard, and you didn't even understand the history of this dynasty." Xiang Mingda straightened his expression, "Come on, I'm Mr. Xiang, and I will be a teacher in the school today. Give you a lecture."

"Let's talk about the Thunder Army first. My brother, I came out of the Thunder Army. When I was selected, my father happily set off ten firecrackers, and even dragged me to the ancestor's grave to kowtow. They said they wanted to set up a water table..."

"Cough—Xian Biao head."

"Okay, let's not talk about me, let's talk about the Thunder Army." Xiang Mingda no longer carried private goods, "The Thunder Army was established in the last years of the previous dynasty, and it was just General Lei Ting's private army at first, and the scale was not large.

Later, they met Gaozu's rebel army, and the two teams merged, and since then they have become more powerful and invincible.Gao Zu was in charge of government affairs, and General Lei Ting was in charge of the army, with clear powers and responsibilities, and soon took down half of the previous dynasty.

Gaozu also formally set up an altar to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, and established himself as king, called Jingwang.Things were going well at the time.

Unexpectedly, at a banquet, Gao Zu was attacked by unknown persons and was stabbed to death on the spot. "

"And then?" Bai Ziren asked curiously.

Seeing that Bai Ziren was interested, Xiang Mingda hurriedly continued: "After Gaozu's accident, everyone in the rebel army supported General Lei Ting to become king. To everyone's surprise, General Lei Ting did not accept it, but instead supported Gao Zu's only son, who was young at the time. Emperor Jingzheng, who was only 16 years old, was the new king.

Fortunately, Emperor Jingzheng was also a Ming lord. He completely entrusted the army to the command of General Lei Ting and named it after the Thunder Army.

Because General Lei Ting possessed magical skills, he could make thunder and lightning fall from the sky, and the war progressed extremely smoothly, and many cities fell upon hearing the wind.

Moreover, the last emperor of the previous dynasty was cruel and heartless, and the people had been dissatisfied for a long time. The Thunder Army hardly encountered any resistance from the people, and many refugees took the initiative to defect.

Fighting all the way like this, gathering surrendered soldiers and refugees all the way, it took only one year for the Thunder Army to reach the capital, encircling and suppressing the remnants of the last emperor of the previous dynasty.

It took another year, either to suppress or gather, to wipe out other small forces in various places.

Since then, the world has been peaceful.

Then, Emperor Jingzheng, who had just completed his full year, formally entered the capital and ascended the throne as emperor. "

"And then, the emperor was dissatisfied with General Lei Ting's great achievements, and sent him to build a post?" Bai Ziren guessed reasonably.
