I do research in ancient times

Clay was reluctant to go on this errand, but he had to listen to little brother Jizi's words, so he had no choice but to go on the road with a knife box on his back.

In order to cover his identity, he first sneaked back to the Ningfu workshop on Zhuque Street, and then brought his "man" to make a big show, and openly went to the door to give gifts to Mr. Feng.

The reason is that the Feng family sent troops to Shizikou, and the Xihai trade route benefited a lot, so they specially found the Xihai sword to give to the heroes.

Now Mo Zong's route to Ding'an City has been cleaned up, and occasionally there are caravans and horses transporting supplies on the official road, most of them are going to the front line of Xiaoling.Clay, a child with a barbarian face, after turning on the official road, from time to time, patrolling black armor soldiers will check his guide, and when they see that it is a wooden sign made by Ding'an City for "Ningjia Workshop", they will let him go quickly. pass.

So along the way, Clay didn't encounter too many obstacles.

Walking and walking, you can see the city wall of Ding'an City from a distance.The dilapidated exterior walls in the past have been repaired and replaced with a gray-white cement coating. It seems that the ancient walls have lost a bit of the vicissitudes of life, but they look extraordinarily clean and tidy.

When Clay arrived, there was a long motorcade parked outside the south gate of the city.A man wearing a cage crown, long-sleeved loose coat, and brocade-hair cloak was riding on a tall horse, with a haughty expression on his face, directing his servants to report to the city guards.

Seeing this scene, the child sneered.

Yongxi Pass is windy and sandy, and now it's snowing outside the pass. Does this idiot want to freeze to death in this kind of clothes that leak air everywhere? !

But the logo on the carriage caught the child's attention.In recent days, he has been with little brother Jizi, and he has begun to read and write. He remembers that the ghost-like symbol on the carriage is actually a variant of the word "Xue".

Why does he know?Because those old smelly feet in the blacksmith workshop are always talking about it!There is also this word on the recording board hanging in the blacksmith workshop. Longquan Jianfang belongs to the Xue family and is the enemy of the Zongmen blacksmith workshop.

Children are especially wary of the word "enemy".

In order to get rich, Wang Mazi's family in the east of their village set fire to the warehouse of Liu Erlianzi's house next door, just to prevent others from selling the same mountain products as his family's.

I heard that Xue's family is far away in the Central Plains, why did they suddenly bring so many people to Ding'an City?Is there any intention?

The alarm bells in the child's mind rang loudly, and he was not in a hurry to go to the Dadu Hufu, so he found an alley and got in to observe secretly.

He guessed right, this train team was exactly the Xue family who came from Hengshou.It was led by Xiaodi Feng's old acquaintance, Third Young Master Xue Yixiao, who nominally took his younger siblings on a trip to Ding'an City to visit old friends and see the scenery beyond the Great Wall.In fact, the highlight was the accompanying luggage convoy, which was full of swords produced by Hengshou Jianfang. Although the quality was not as good as the first-class products from Changzhou Jianfang, the Xue family's second room felt that the Feng family would definitely accept the deal.

After all, even if it is an inferior product, it is much better than the current equipment of the Yongxi Guan garrison.

So this time, Third Young Master Xue's back was extremely rigid, like a big rooster with its chest up and its head up, riding on a tall horse to boss around, yelling at people to come into the city to inform the Feng family.

After the Feng family conquered Shizikou, part of the army was led by Feng Kang back to Ding'an City to rest and recuperate, while the other elite team was commanded by Feng Kai alone, and its whereabouts are currently unknown.

Even the inside of the Feng family didn't know where Feng Kai was now, and the Chief Protector of Feng didn't seem to care, and called the lieutenants to study military affairs as usual every day.

Brother Feng went back to the city after a rest with the army. This experience made him grow a lot. After witnessing the cruelty and blood of the war, the naive and innocent middle school boy seemed to have an epiphany.Since returning to the city, little brother Feng has been concentrating on practicing martial arts at home. No matter how his old friends call him, little brother Feng won't go out to play with them.

Seeing him working hard, all the cousins ​​couldn't hold back their curiosity.

"Yo, Twelve Lang, why are you suddenly enlightened?"

"Dangtang Ding'an Fourth Young Master, how come you only see three in the city recently, three are missing and one is too many?"

Xiaodi Feng, who was zipping around, cast a glance at the people who were watching the joke, disdainful to answer such yin and yang questions.

But there are many brothers in his family, and everyone came to watch together, which made little brother Feng really unbearable, so he had to honestly admit that he was stimulated on the battlefield.

"I used to think that fighting and killing the enemy was awe-inspiring, but it was only when I went to the battlefield that I realized that human life is not life."

"Big brother always has to calculate before going to war, and he can complete the task with the least cost. I am far behind him."

Brother Feng said sullenly.

"My brain is failing, I can't think about so many things, why not practice martial arts well, maybe I can help the boss."

Hearing what he said, Feng Wei patted his cousin on the shoulder.

"Brother, you don't have to be so depressed, there is a big thing you need to do now."

Oh?

Brother Feng raised his head, his face was unclear.

"It's your former wine and meat friend, that surnamed Xue, and he's here again."

Feng Wei had a look of disgust, as if the Xue family were some maggots who couldn't stand on the stage, and they would gag when they mentioned it.

"He said he came to visit you, so Uncle asked you to meet him. The Xue family's second wife and our Feng family don't have any apparent friendship, so you can set a good standard."

Brother Feng was very reluctant.

Now that he has recuperated, why should he deal with a greasy guy like Xue San! ?Isn't this forcing someone into prostitution? ?

Pooh!It seems that you can't say that, anyway, that's what it means, he really doesn't want to play with a coward like Xue Yixiao now!

But there was no other way, he still had to listen to his father's words, so Xiaodi Feng went back to change his clothes with a smug face, and then led the horse out of the mansion with a slap in the face.

From a distance, I could see the carriages and horses of Xue's family, they were so fancyly decorated, and Xue San was ostentatious in front of him in a wide-sleeved toga.

He wore that thing, and it was all naked inside, and the current weather...doesn't it feel windy? !

Xiaodi Feng rode forward, and when he approached the city gate, he automatically changed into a smiling face, and bowed his hands to Xue San who was in front of the convoy.

"Brother Yixiao, long time no see! You left in a hurry before, and I didn't have time to see you off. I'm still thinking about it and I don't know when we can meet again!"

Hearing this, Xue Yixiao's expression froze.

The last time he ran at night was Xue San's shame in his life. He was too hasty when he ran away, and all his luggage and clothes were thrown in Ding'an City.

This boy Feng Kang really has no eyes, which pot does not open and which pot is lifted, Xue San is so angry that his liver hurts.

But he still had to keep the family smile on his face.

Xue Yixiao also cupped his hands.

"Where, last time I was entertained by Twelve Lang, and this time I have the cheek to bother you again."

He turned slightly sideways and pointed to the convoy behind him.

"My brothers and sisters are coming with me. My father means to let them go out for a study tour and see the great mountains and rivers of my career. By the way..."

He suddenly rode his horse forward, lowered his voice and said to Xiaodi Feng.

"My father also asked me to bring a batch of good things, and I want to do business with the chief guardian and the eldest son."

Brother Feng was taken aback.

He didn't believe a word of what Xue Yixiao said in the first half, what kind of knowledge is so good, is there anyone who goes on a study tour and brings a girl with him? !Aren't those girls from aristocratic families not going out of the door and not going out of the second door, and they feel that their innocence has been tarnished when they take a look at a man? !

But after hearing the second half, Twelve Lang instantly understood what the Xue family meant.

It's best to get married, and if you can't get married, you can also talk about money. The second wife of Xue's family came here with sincerity this time.

But... his elder brother?

Brother Feng spat in his heart.

Xue San's vision was quite high, and he aimed directly at the head of their Feng family's next generation.I heard that the Xue family has a complex root system, and Xue San, who has no family division, can still be said to be the direct lineage of the Xue family. Now Changzhou Xue and Hengshou Xue have become two branches, and the Xue family's direct lineage is in Changzhou!

Xue Yixiao himself has a biological sister, but she is now the queen mother in the palace, so I don't know which side sister is here this time, does he think his elder brother is a fool?

Thinking of this, Feng Kang became more and more unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face.

He led the crowd into the city, booked the largest inn in the city, and followed the mysterious Xue San to the backyard.

"This is the sincerity of my Xue family."

Saying that, Xue San boarded the carriage, and pulled the tarpaulin in the carriage, revealing the wooden boxes packed full inside.

"Let Twelve Lang check it out!"

Xue San said triumphantly.

Xiaodi Feng stepped forward, only took a look, and his face changed instantly.

I saw that there were swords in the wooden box, and the imprint of "Xue" was printed on each handle, which was the symbol produced by Xue's Longquan Jianfang.

Xiaodi Feng picked up the knife, his hands were heavy and cold, and the blade was sharp and shiny.Although it was not comparable to the big and small Quenyun he had obtained before, it was already a far cry from the current equipment of the frontier army.

Xue San was very satisfied with Xiaodi Feng's reaction, and said generously.

"This car is considered as a meeting gift from my Xue family to the general guard. It is all first-class products shipped from Changzhou General Square, and it is no different from the ones used by my own soldiers!"

"Back then, the late emperor only used the same things when he wanted to build a pro-army. Our Xue family is very sincere this time, and I hope Twelve Lang will report to the chief guardian and the eldest son. I, Xue San, will wait for the good news here."

So, Xiaodi Feng returned to the Dadu Protectorate with a cart of weapons.

He didn't dare to make his own opinion on this matter, as soon as he entered the door, he turned directly to the main courtyard, and was going to tell his father exactly what happened.

Unexpectedly, Chief Guard Feng was not in the study, and asked the servants, saying that he was checking the martial arts of several cousins ​​in the martial arts arena.Brother Feng remembered that this was the regular school examination day every ten days, and it was not a secret at home that the Xue family sent weapons, so he turned and went to the martial arts field.

On the way, Chang Sui Badou, who was meeting him, hurried forward, leading a barbarian child towards him.

Brother Feng stared, isn't this the kid Clay who showed his brother Fei the shop?

It is said that Brother Xiao Fei has not come to Ding'an City for a long time after the eldest brother went out to fight.Clay came here today, could it be that he caused some trouble in the city?

"Who is causing trouble!?"

The child rolled his eyes, and reluctantly handed the package to Xiaodi Feng.

"Here, brother Jizi gave it to your brother. I heard that he is not here, so when he comes back, you hand it over to him. Don't lose it!"

Oh.

Brother Feng nodded, not caring about Clay's attitude.

He is a mature adult now, and he still has big things on his shoulders, so he doesn't have to get angry with a little kid.

Now he doesn't envy little brother Fei who only gives things to elder brother, not his share.The eldest brother is very powerful, he is incomparable to Feng Kang, and brother Xiaofei is partial to what he should think.

But today, what kind of day is this? How come one or two give gifts to their family? !
