I'm a Buddhist foster child
Chapter 52
Yang Jian came out of the tent of the shogunate, and the third brother Yang Zan had already greeted him. He excitedly grabbed Yang Jian's hand and said, "Brother! Did you hear that? Did you hear that! The second brother is not dead yet. Not his, not... not his..."
Yang Jian said comfortingly: "Brother Wei heard it, let's go find the second brother and come back."
Yang Zan personally arranged the manpower, and even went out to look for it himself, but after several days, he found nothing. No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a hair of Yang Zheng.
Everyone sat in the shogunate council, and gradually calmed down from the initial surprise. In fact, everyone had a doubt, Yang Zheng...
Didn't you die in battle?
According to what the traitor said, Yang Zheng was seriously injured and fell into the river. The river was so fast that Yang Zheng went down the river, and he didn't know what would happen. Moreover, it had been so long, even if he searched along the river, he might not be able to find it. turn up.
Gao Yanzong couldn't sit still anymore, and said in a low voice, "The Great General Chaqi really didn't..."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Changgong stopped him. Gao Changgong shook his head at him. Gao Yanzong curled his lips and did not speak again.
Yu Wenxian, the Duke of Qi, said: "General, we have wasted too much time in Longmen. If this continues...if we find the General Chariot and Rider, we have gained something. If...if we can't find the General Chariot , the number of troops in Yiyang is small, and He Shikai wants to quickly capture Yiyang, I'm afraid..."
You don't need Yu Wenxian to tell the whole story, everyone knows very well that if they don't set off for Yiyang now, Yuwenhui will definitely not be able to withstand the [-] troops led by Heshi, and Yiyang will fall by then.
On the one hand, there are illusory hopes, and on the other hand, Yiyang is at stake. What should we do?
Yang Guang raised his head, squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Jian, who closed his eyes. Yang Jian seemed to be asleep, neither opened his eyes nor spoke.
At this moment, there was a sound of "哗啦——" and the curtains were slammed up. Someone walked in from the outside. It was Yang Zan who had just rushed back from the outside.
When everyone saw Yang Zan coming in, they immediately looked at Yang Zan as if every day, wondering if they had found General Yang Zheng today. Still haven't found Yang Zheng.
There is no time to lose...
Yang Zan looked at Yang Jian and said, "Brother... are you going to leave?"
Only then did Yang Jian open his eyes. Before he could answer, Yang Zan's voice gradually became very low, and he said, "We...we have spent too long here, and it is indeed time to leave. I... I I thought the second brother was not dead, I..."
When he said this, his voice was choked up, and he couldn't say a word anymore.
Gao Changgong sighed, stood up, and said, "Let's go back first."
As he said that, he pulled Gao Yanzong out of the shogunate camp, and left first, and the others also left with interest after seeing the scene.
Yang Jian stood up, walked in front of Yang Zan, put his arms around Yang Zan, patted the top of his hair lightly, and said, "Don't worry, the second child will definitely be found."
Yang Zan's voice was hoarse, and he said, "We can't waste time in Longmen. If we delay any longer, what will happen to Yiyang? There are still so many soldiers in Yiyang, they can't be like us..."
One more day of delay would make Yiyang more dangerous. There might be many "Yang Zhengs" and many poor people who lost their loved ones. Although Yang Zan was unwilling to do so, he also considered this point.
Yang Jian narrowed his eyes and said: "Now He Shikai must be stealing us secretly, so the third brother can't stay in Longmen. To be safe, we need to go on the road together. The eldest brother will arrange people to continue searching. Don't worry, we can definitely find the second brother." .”
Yang Zan is a "cultural person", and he doesn't need others to explain many truths. He also understands that He Shikai is eyeing each other, and they need to move forward in groups.Yang Zan really wants to say some willful words, and wants to stay here and continue to look for his second brother Yang Zheng, but if he stays, He Shikai will sneak behind him, which will cause a great burden to Yang Jian, and he doesn't want to hold back others .
Yang Zan said in a low voice: "Brother, I know, let's go tomorrow... let's go."
Yang Jian's army set off from Longmen, marched all the way, went straight south, and marched towards Yiyang.
When He Shikai received the traitor's head, he was terrified, and immediately sent troops to stop them. Yang Jian and the others encountered many ambushes along the way, but because Tang Yong arranged a secret operation in He Shikai's army, they all resolved them one by one. , There is no surprise or danger at all.
The army approached Yiyang, and He Shikai's actions increased. The Yang family ordered to camp nearby and confront Yiyang.
The camp had just been built, Tang Yong had strode in from the outside, and hurriedly said, "Brother Bai, have you seen the general?"
Bai Jian replied, "The general is in the shogunate."
Seeing Tang Yong's hurried appearance, he knew that He Shikai must have made another move.
Soon, Yang Jian summoned all the people in the shogunate to discuss matters. When they entered the shogunate, they all sat down. Yang Jian said, "General Tang, tell me what you heard."
Tang Yong nodded and said, "Heshikai has made another movement. He secretly contacted a group of thieves around Kongcheng, and wants to help them break through Kongcheng."
This year is full of thieves and horse bandits, which is not uncommon. Because the area around Kongcheng is the dividing line between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty, there are many more thieves in this place than in other places.
He Shikai secretly contacted a group of thieves. These thieves are local snakes in Kongcheng, who specialize in attacking passers-by. Sometimes they even dare to rob the army's food, grass and money.And these thieves don't care whether you are in the Northern Zhou Dynasty or the Northern Qi Dynasty, as long as it is profitable, they will burn, kill and loot. The defenders of Kongcheng have repeatedly mobilized troops to condemn them, but it is a pity that these thieves are very alert. The defenders of the city have not found their lair, so they always hit and run, and they can never be eradicated.
He Shikai contacted such a group of people, bribed them with a lot of treasure, and reached an agreement with the thieves.
Tang Yong frowned and said: "If the thieves can kill the defender of Kongcheng and occupy Kongcheng and give it to He Shikai, He Shikai will be grateful."
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this, He Shikai actually invited robbers to steal Kongcheng, once Kongcheng fell, Yiyang would not be far away...
Yang Jian said: "But who are these thieves?"
Tang Yong said: "The horse bandits near Kongcheng, but who they are and where their lairs are, no one knows. The nobles are still ordinary people, they will all rob, if there is no money, they will kill people, the method is extremely cruel, not only that, the horse bandits also like to rob women, the defender of Kongcheng has sent troops to strangle them many times, but they have not gained much .”
Yang Jian glanced sideways at Yang Guang who was sitting on the table. Yang Guang was a natural hacker. It was Yang Guang who found out the base of Hao Abao and Langpi before.
Yang Jian lowered his head and said softly, "Do you have any clues about these thieves?"
Holding his short arms, Yang Guang shook his head and said in a low voice, "No clue."
In his previous life, Yang Guang also heard about the thieves in Kongcheng, and these thieves were very famous.Yiyang has always been a battleground for military strategists, not only because Yiyang is close to Luoyang, but also because Yiyang is the central hub. As long as Yiyang is occupied, it can expand in all directions, so the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi paid great attention to it. Yiyang.
The two sides have been robbing Yiyang. In Yang Guang's memory, there was indeed an incident where thieves killed the defender of Kongcheng and stole Kongcheng and gave it to Beiqi. The war lasted for a long time.
And these thieves, because they were elusive, so after they got the benefits, they patted their buttocks and left directly. When the follow-up soldiers and horses came to Kongcheng, they never saw the thieves again, and they had already fled.
Northern Zhou and Northern Qi were devastated because of Yiyang, who was in the mood to take care of those thieves?So even if Yang Guang knew about it, he didn't know who the thief was or where his base was.
Yang Jian pondered for a while. Although Yang Guang didn't know the details of the thief, he was sure that the thief was indeed bought by He Shikai. If he didn't stop it, the defender of Kongcheng would be killed by the thief. If the city falls, Yiyang will be in danger.
Han Feng sneered and said, "If you're a thief, give me a thousand soldiers and horses, and I'll take him now!"
Yu Wenxian said: "General Han, don't be arrogant."
Tang Yong said: "As far as I know, this group of thieves are haunted. If we don't find their lair and uproot them, Yiyang will always be in danger. Even if we take Yiyang and move to Luoyang, we may be threatened by them. At that time, there will be Qi soldiers and horses to the east, and greedy thieves to the west, and we will be attacked from the front and back, and the situation will only be extremely passive, so we must deal with this group of thieves right now, and we need to root them out!"
Yang Jian nodded slightly, and said: "This is indeed the truth, what General Tang said is correct."
Gao Yanzong propped his cheeks and said: "But...how can we find the lair of the thieves?"
Gao Changgong pondered for a while, and said: "The thieves are greedy for money and like to plunder women. Why don't you use this to lure the thieves out and follow the vines to find the thieves' camp."
It is indeed a good idea. After the thieves catch the "prey", they must bring it back to their base camp. If they can follow the vine, it is naturally the best.
Of course...
Gao Yanzong frowned and said: "We have money, but this female sex... our entire military camp is full of rough men, where did the female sex come from?"
There was Feng Xiaolian before, but now she has been sent to Yecheng in the Northern Qi Dynasty. The closest "female sex" is probably the Ashina girl from Jinyang, but the Ashina girl Nine years old, talkative, although the nobles in the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi scrambled to marry the daughter of Ashina, but in the end, it was all because of her status as the daughter of Ashina. If you put aside this identity, Ashina The country girl is really too young and too young, and the company leader hasn't grown up yet.
Everyone fell into a headache and fell silent for a moment. Han Feng sighed and said, "It would be great if Xiaomai was here. Xiaomao looks so good-looking and has a suitable size."
Yuchi Youqi was relatively late in development, and it is reasonable for boys to grow slowly.The baby girl has delicate features, red lips and white teeth, and a slender figure. At first glance, she really looks like a beautiful lady.
Yu Wenxian glanced at Han Feng sideways, and said: "General Han, don't forget that Mr. Yuchi is far away in Yiyang now. The general asked Mr. Yuchi to deliver a letter a few days ago. The thieves may have stolen the Kongfu a long time ago. city."
Han Feng said: "Then what do you think should be done?"
Gao Yanzong suddenly laughed and said, "He!"
He said, pointing at Gao Changgong, Gao Changgong's forehead twitched suddenly, and then Gao Yanzong continued: "Look at how good-looking he is, let him pretend to be a woman, and he will definitely not reveal his secrets!"
Gao Changgong rubbed his forehead and said, "Ayan, do you think my figure is suitable?"
Gao Changgong was indeed handsome. If he dressed up as a woman and added some pink and black, he would definitely be stunning, but it's a pity...
Gao Changgong belongs to the tall, broad-shouldered type. Even if you can see your face behind women's clothing, you can't see your figure. He is taller than ordinary men, and he will definitely show his secrets when he walks out.
Gao Yanzong gave a "tsk", as if he felt that it was impossible, and it was completely off-putting, so everyone looked around with their eyes, and everyone present was sized up, as if they were wondering who would be the most suitable to dress up as a woman.
Everyone checked back and forth, but Yang Zan was the only one sitting on the table, a little lost in thought, maybe he didn't hear them talking.
Their army had already approached Yiyang, but there was still no news from Longmen. Yang Zan was a bit out of his mind these days, and anyone who spoke to him had to yell several times.
Yang Jian's eyes rolled slightly, and he said thoughtfully: "Do you think... the third brother is suitable?"
"Join the army?" Everyone's gazes gathered together, all fixed on Yang Zan.
Yang Zan said "Ah?", and then he came to his senses and said, "What...is it suitable?"
Yang Zan didn't hear clearly at all, he just nodded and said, "It's suitable...does the eldest brother send the younger brother to do something? It's suitable, the younger brother can do anything."
Everyone's gaze immediately "sharpened", indeed... very appropriate.
Yang Zan's figure is tall, not the tall type, and he is a cultural person on weekdays, very gentle, although a little taller than ordinary women, but it is much better than Gao Changgong's broad shoulders.
In addition, Yang Zan himself is delicate and elegant, with a gentle temperament, if he can cover it with makeup, it should... not be a problem.
Brother Gao Yanzong, Yang Jian turned out to be a brother, Yang Guang rubbed his forehead helplessly.
In fact, Yang Jian also has "difficulties". These days Yang Zan is always out of his mind, and he is always in a daze on weekdays.
Yang Zan didn't know why, but seeing other people staring at him was full of "urgency", as if he was a hero of the world.
Gao Yanzong smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad, suitable and suitable!"
Han Feng also said: "Why did I forget to join the army, it's appropriate!"
Yu Wenxian said: "It should be able to deceive people's eyes and ears."
Gao Changgong avoided a catastrophe, although he was a bit unkind, he coughed and said, "Chang Gong also thinks that joining the army is the best choice."
Yang Zan said confusedly, "What is the mission? Is it so important?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows at Yang Zan, and then said, "Why don't you call me to join the army?"
There was no one in the army who could put makeup on Yang Jian, so I found one temporarily. The old woman stared at Yang Zan with bright eyes, and said with a smile: "Oh, Mr. Xiaolang's face is so good! Oh, it's so delicate. Hey, hey, look at this Liu Yeermei, it really compares to ordinary women! I can guarantee that after I have done it, this young master is probably five hundred miles away. Beautiful little lady!"
"Little..." Little lady! ?
Yang Zan stared at the rouge and gouache on the table, and then vaguely felt that something was wrong. He was clearly a man, so why did he become a lady?And what are these rouge powders for?
The old woman wanted to "trick" Yang Zan, but Yang Zan was a man of culture, how could he be so unruly, he was so frightened that he stood up immediately and wanted to run away.
Yang Jian squeezed the third younger brother's shoulder, pushed him back onto the mat, and said with a smile, "Third younger brother, where can we escape?"
Yang Zan's eyelids twitched wildly, and he said, "Brother... what's going on, brother?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "Just now, the third younger brother has agreed, a man, how can you go back on your word?"
"I..." Yang Zan said, "What did I promise?"
Yang Jian showed a "secret" smile and said, "A man disguises himself as a woman."
"Women's clothing!?" Yang Zan, the third child who had always been refined and refined, yelled out, with an expression of disbelief.
The old woman stared at Yang Zan like a wolf, and Yang Zan couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "But...but my brother is a man, absolutely not...no...or let's discuss it and find someone... ... find a woman."
Yang Jian sighed and said, "Third brother, if you don't want to disguise yourself as a man, we can find any woman to replace you. If someone refuses, it's not difficult to forcefully arrest a woman, but..."
Yang Jian changed the subject and said: "Third brother, think about it. Those thieves are wolves. This little lady doesn't know martial arts. If she is captured and abused, what should I do? They can protect themselves? Third brother? Didn't you entrap the innocent little lady?"
Yang Zan's face froze, indeed... this is indeed the truth, he has always had a sense of justice, he is an "angry youth", and immediately said: "No! Absolutely no!"
Yang Jiansha nodded wisely and said, "Yes, of course not, so I can only trouble my third brother."
"But..." Yang Zan always felt that something was wrong, and tried his best to make the last struggle, saying, "But you, brother... you are born much more handsome than my brother, or else...you should come here in person."
Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, my brother, of course the eldest brother will come in person, and the eldest brother will personally see off the third brother."
"Send..." Send off the kiss! ?
Yang Zan thought he heard it wrong, but in fact he didn't, he just sent off his relatives.
Yang Jian has already written the script. The content of the script is that a certain rich lady gets married, beating gongs and drums all the way, bringing a generous dowry, and being escorted by her elder brother Yang Jian.In this way, with money and beauties, and drums and gongs, are you afraid that those thieves will not hear you?
Yang Jian smiled and said to the old woman: "Please trouble the old man, give my brother a pure and charming makeup."
The old woman laughed "Ouch" and said, "Don't worry, don't worry! That's great, this young master is very talented! Look, the skin is so beautiful without makeup, just a little bit of paint, it will definitely fascinate a man." Already!"
Yang Zan: "..." It sounds weird.
"Brother!"
"Brother, let's discuss it again!"
"Big Brother... Big Brother, don't go, Big Brother——"
Yang Jian gave Yang Zan a reassuring look, turned around and left the house with a smile, and closed the door thoughtfully before leaving.
As soon as the door was closed, Yang Zan's shouts were stopped immediately, but a thrilling "scream" was still vaguely heard from inside.
"Hey! Young master, your face is so delicate. Look at the color of this makeup, it suits you very well. If I were a man, I would definitely be fascinated by you!"
"Oh! The color of this hairpin makes the young master's skin so white!"
"My lord, do you like cross temples or single snail temples? Are cloud temples too ordinary to complement the beauty of my lord!"
Yang Jian heard the voice in the house, chuckled lightly, and said, "It seems that the third brother is busy."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched wildly, and he always felt that his father treated him too softly, and being a child really had privileges.
Yang Jian said again: "Let's go, son, we can't be idle."
Yang Guang raised his fleshy face and said, "Father, where are you going?"
Yang Jian said: "Since we are going to see off relatives, why don't we make some wedding cakes?"
As he spoke, he took Yang Guang's little hand and walked towards the dining room.
Xu Minqi happened to be in the dining room, when Yang Jian saw him, he smiled and said, "Doctor Xu."
"General." Xu Minqi bowed his hands "timidly". He is so tall and big, with a "little white rabbit" expression on his face. Anyone who sees him for the first time may be shocked and get goosebumps all over his body. Fortunately, Yang Jian is no longer surprised.
Xu Minqi was the only one who surrendered without being persuaded to surrender. Because Xu Minqi was timid and very afraid of strangers, after he came to Yang Jian's barracks, he would do whatever Yang Jian asked him to do, and he never dared to say a word , full peace of mind.
Yang Jian said: "I don't know if Dr. Xu can mix some medicinal powder and put it in the cakes and food. After eating some, he will feel like drunk. He will be so sleepy that he can't wake up no matter how much he screams."
When Xu Minqi heard this, his face was full of embarrassment, and he didn't dare to look up at Yang Jian. Yang Jian instantly understood that Xu Minqi must be able to make this kind of medicine powder, but this kind of medicine powder is not upright enough, so it's hard to open his mouth.
Yang Jian said: "Jian urgently needs such medicinal powder, please make some."
"Yes..." Xu Minqi dared not refuse, and immediately began to prepare the medicine powder.
Yang Guang was a little surprised, what did Yang Jian want such a "dirty" medicinal powder?In fact, this kind of medicinal powder is not uncommon, and it is used by dirty people to do bad things, and it is quite common among nobles.
Yang Jian began to wash his hands, rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's time to give the thieves some extra food."
How can you miss the wedding cake when sending off your relatives?Wedding cakes were very popular when Yang Jian was a child, but they gradually became less and less popular when he grew up, and were replaced by many western-style breads.
In fact, the taste of wedding cakes is just like Chinese bread. It is also leavened. It can be directly made into slightly sweet white cakes, or you can add fillings inside. It tastes soft and sweet, and it is a good snack.
Yang Jian neatly kneaded the noodles and prepared spices. Naturally, all kinds of traditional jujube paste and sesame spices were indispensable. Yang Jian also prepared some quicksand and salted egg yolk fillings. When he was ready, Xu Minqi brought the finished medicine powder over. , Pass it to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian was also unambiguous, and immediately "swish, swish, swish" a few times, sprinkle the medicinal powder on various fillings, stir evenly, then wrap it in the noodles, press the wedding cakes into small pancakes, and then bake them in the pan cooked.
The smell of the baked wedding cake is overflowing. The surface of the wedding cake is baked and becomes slightly browned, while the inside is white. When you break it open, a strong aroma bursts out.
There was medicinal powder in the stuffing, so it was inedible, so Yang Jian handed Yang Guang a baked plain wedding cake without filling, and asked Yang Guang to try it.
Slightly sweet, not greasy, the newly baked wedding cake is still a little hot, but it does not hinder the deliciousness, the skin is brown and attractive, the taste is soft, the more you chew, the more delicious it is, the little bun Yang Guang is holding a plate that looks like his face The round wedding cake, I ate it with relish, the crumbs of the wedding cake were all over my face, I nodded seriously, and said, "It's so thick!"
Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "It's good if it's delicious, and if you ask them to eat more, it's cheaper sometimes."
Yang Jian's plan is very clear, Yang Zan will dress up as Xi Niang, and he will follow to see off his relatives. There should not be too many people in the team, lest they show their feet. Except for some soldiers dressed as servants, everyone else must stand by and wait for the thieves to catch him. The team that saw off the relatives went up the mountain, and after entering the base camp, they left with the pot.
At that time, the thieves ate the wedding cakes with extra ingredients and fell asleep, and the soldiers rushed to the village without doing anything, wouldn't it be very convenient?
Yang Jian made the wedding cake and walked back with Yang Guang, the little bun. Yang Guang was holding a half-bitten wedding cake in his hand and gnawing on it.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the house, the door of the house had already been opened, and Gao Yanzong's "hahaha" laughter came from inside, the laughter almost knocked the house down.
"Hahahaha! Dressed like this for joining the army, you look decent!"
"Sure enough, she looks like a little lady, no, no, she is much more beautiful than ordinary little ladies!"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and walked in. Yang Zan was surrounded in the middle, three floors inside and three floors outside, and no one could be seen for a while. When everyone saw Yang Jian, they immediately moved out of the way. Gao Yanzong said: "Look at this Lord Sanlang, it’s really like that! That old woman’s technique is really amazing!"
Yang Jian looked at it, couldn't help laughing, and said, "What a symbolic little lady."
Yang Zan had already put on makeup, and more than that, he also put on a wedding dress, which was wide and wide, and covered Yang Zan's body, making him look extremely thin. It was completely impossible to tell that Yang Zan was actually a martial artist.
Yang Zan's skin was originally cold white, but with the addition of some powder, it looked even fairer and more translucent, like a flawless jade, his cheeks were slightly red, his eyebrows were painted, his lips were stained with crimson balm, and his hair was loose. The temples were loosely tied, under Yang Zan's strong request, instead of the soaring snake temples, the most common cloud temples.
The temple hair is combed into a thin piece, like the clouds in the sky. Although the cloud temple is the most common hairstyle at this time, there is also a reason for being ordinary. Because most women comb this kind of temple hair, it becomes common over time. It is because of the classics that so many women like this ordinary hairstyle.
The daily life is simple, not too high-profile, but not lacking in fairy spirit. The biggest feature of Yunbin is that it is full of fairy spirit.
When Yang Zan heard his elder brother teasing him, he immediately stared. Because of Fen Dai, the staring became soft, not staring at all, it was coquettish, at most coquettish.
Yang Jian clapped his palms and said, "It's very good. When those thieves saw my third brother, they must have lost their minds and stopped running away."
Yang Guang: "..."
Everyone was almost ready, so it was time to start acting. Seeing that the sky was dusk, it was time to act.
Yang Jian withdrew his official robes, put on ordinary uniforms, and pretended to see off his relatives. Gao Changgong was a little worried, and said, "General, do you really need us to follow? We can also pretend to be servants to see off our relatives."
Yang Jian shook his head and said, "No need, there are so many people, it's easy to reveal the truth, and look at yourself, which one looks like a servant?"
Gao Changgong pretended to be a refugee, but Yang Jian recognized him at first glance. He really didn't look like a refugee, let alone other people.
Yang Jian got on his horse and said, "If the thieves show up, don't act rashly, so as not to scare the snakes. Make sure the thieves enter their lair, wait for the opportunity, and catch them all. If you miss the opportunity this time, it will be difficult to strike next time."
Everyone nodded and said, "Yes, General!"
Yang Jian said to Yang Guang again: "My son is waiting obediently, father and father will be back soon."
Yang Guang wants to follow the team, but with his current appearance, it is absolutely impossible to follow the team. After all, who is married with a baby?
Yang Guang nodded like an adult, and said, "Father, be careful."
Yang Jian said loudly: "Let's be more lively, let the little lady get married!"
As soon as his words fell, the soldiers disguised as servants began to beat gongs and drums, and walked forward in a "swaggering way".
The fiery red send-off team was like a long dragon, with exquisite dowry and strong horses. Yang Jian couldn't believe it. With such a big fat sheep, wouldn't the thieves be envious after seeing it?
The crowd set off at dusk and walked all the way through the remote mountain road. Seeing that the sky was getting dark and it was going to be dark, there was still no trace of the horse bandits.
Yang Zan was a little anxious, the main reason was that he was sitting in the luggage cart, and felt a little nauseous from being shaken, so he lifted the curtain of the luggage cart slightly, and said softly, "Brother..."
Yang Jian saw that he poked his head out, and immediately pushed him back, saying, "Don't come out, don't make a sound."
Although Yang Zan could dress up as a woman, his voice could not be changed, it was a little low and might give away his secrets.
Yang Zan was pushed back into the carriage, and at this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of "Boom--", it was the sound of horseshoes, coming from all directions, directly surrounding them.
Yang Jian squinted his eyes and smiled, and said in his heart.
Sure enough, it was thieves. A large number of thieves rushed down from the mountain, laughing and saying, "Look! A fat sheep!"
"The team to send off relatives? Looks like a rich family!"
"Don't talk about money, I just want to see if the little lady is beautiful or not!"
The thieves swarmed up and surrounded their team. Yang Jian pretended to be very scared and said: "Heroes and heroes, we pass by a treasure land and don't want to disturb you. Please be flexible. This is... this is ours. Your filial piety!"
As he spoke, he quickly took out some money. The box was opened, and the money inside was piled up in pieces. When the thief saw it, his eyes lit up immediately, and he burst out with a greedy wolf light.
The thief laughed loudly and said, "Is this little money going to send a beggar!? Brothers?"
"Yes! Yes! That's right!"
"I think we just robbed their family sending team. The money and coins are all ours, and this little lady, hahaha, I don't know what to do with the little lady from a rich family. Let's take it up the mountain and honor the elder brother!"
"Yes! Catch them all!"
The thieves were really greedy, Yang Jian showed some money, those thieves immediately took the bait, rushed up to arrest them, the soldiers pretended to be servants, did not resist at all, and were all caught soon.
Yang Jian yelled "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Ho-"
The curtain of the car was pulled down, and the thieves gasped immediately, staring at the "bridal" Yang Zan in shock, Yang Zan also gasped, afraid that they would see the clue, and his heart would tremble with fright stand up.
Unexpectedly, the thieves sighed at the next moment: "It's so beautiful!"
"I'm afraid it's a fairy!"
"I've never seen such a beautiful little lady!"
"Take it up the mountain, honor the elder brother, hahaha!"
Yang Zan turned pale with fright, but it wasn't because he was afraid of thieves, but because he was afraid of being discovered. After all, it was his first time to drive ducks to the shelves, and he had no experience in this field at all. Pale, no doubt at all, just feel more lovely.
Yang Jian pretended to be panicked and shouted: "What are you doing! Let go of my sister! Do you know who my sister is!? She is going to marry Kong Chengfang as his wife! You horse thieves, you can afford it!" ?"
"Kongcheng defender?"
Yang Jian just tried it a little bit, and the thieves immediately laughed and said: "What is the defender of Kongcheng!? Our elder brother took his head in the past two days! You are so beautiful, little lady, don't marry me!" For that short-lived defender, I'm afraid he will soon become a widow! Come on, it's better to follow us up the mountain!"
Yang Jian narrowed his eyes calmly, and sneered in his heart, as expected, he knew it was really this gang of horse thieves after he tried it.
The thieves laughed at Yang Jian, feeling that they had taken advantage of it, because they thought that the bride was going to marry someone who defended Kongcheng, so it was reasonable to take this remote route and have a lot of generous dowry, so they didn't do much Suspect.
The thieves shouted: "Let's go! Take them all back and go up the mountain!"
The thieves went up the mountain, Gao Yanzong and others were in ambush in the dark, Gao Yanzong was a little impatient and said, "Let's follow!"
"Wait," Gao Changgong said: "Don't be impatient, these horse thieves are elusive, it must be not easy, you can't follow too close, lest all previous efforts will be wasted."
Sure enough, these thieves were very cautious. Although they wanted to take the captives up the mountain, they didn't go straight to their lair immediately. Instead, they turned around the mountain twice, and after a long circle, they quickly returned to their original place, as if they were afraid that someone would follow them. generally.
"I'll just say it, it must be true."
"Yes, it belongs to you who are suspicious. Let's get better now. It can't be a trap. Let's go up the mountain quickly!"
"Yes, back to the village!"
Only then did the thieves start to go up the mountain again. Gao Yanzong squatted in the grass, frowned and said, "This thieves are quite cautious."
Gao Changgong said softly: "Follow carefully, don't be reckless, now that the general and Lord Sanlang are in the hands of thieves, we must be more careful."
Yang Jian and Yang Zan were taken up the mountain by thieves, and there was indeed a cottage on the mountain, the location was very hidden, no wonder the soldiers of Kongcheng couldn't find it, if there were no acquaintances to lead the way, outsiders would not be able to get here.
The scale of the cottage is not too big, but it is enough to accommodate 1000 people. When the thieves saw them coming back, they immediately laughed and said, "They even brought back a woman!"
"What a beautiful little lady!"
"Today's harvest is quite good!"
Yang Jian and Yang Zan were escorted into the lobby of the cottage, "Boom!" Pushing in, several thieves followed up laughing and sizing Yang Zan carefully.
Yang Zan fell to the ground, his sideburns were pulled lazily, but when he was pushed, they became a little loose, which was unavoidably more charming. The thief seemed to have never seen such a beautiful "little lady", and said happily, "Little lady is so beautiful." Zhen'er is beautiful, the eldest brother has not come back yet, come here, let the brothers kiss first."
As the thieves said, they all gathered around, Yang Zan narrowed his eyes, although he was a literati, he actually practiced martial arts, and immediately his fists crackled.
"Ouch! This little lady is staring at me!"
"The little eyes are so pretty! It makes my heart itch!"
"Oh, you want to tickle me to death!"
Yang Zan couldn't bear it anymore, and when he was about to have an attack, Yang Jian quickly stepped forward to stop him. It seemed that he was afraid that the thieves would bully his "sister", but in fact, he was afraid that the third brother would rush up and beat her up, and said Those who folded were all begging for mercy, saying: "All heroes! All heroes! Hold your hand high, hold your hand high, my sister is going to marry, this can't... can't... Heroes, please spare us, and all the money will be given to you , all for you, as long as you let us go,
Yang Jian said comfortingly: "Brother Wei heard it, let's go find the second brother and come back."
Yang Zan personally arranged the manpower, and even went out to look for it himself, but after several days, he found nothing. No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a hair of Yang Zheng.
Everyone sat in the shogunate council, and gradually calmed down from the initial surprise. In fact, everyone had a doubt, Yang Zheng...
Didn't you die in battle?
According to what the traitor said, Yang Zheng was seriously injured and fell into the river. The river was so fast that Yang Zheng went down the river, and he didn't know what would happen. Moreover, it had been so long, even if he searched along the river, he might not be able to find it. turn up.
Gao Yanzong couldn't sit still anymore, and said in a low voice, "The Great General Chaqi really didn't..."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Changgong stopped him. Gao Changgong shook his head at him. Gao Yanzong curled his lips and did not speak again.
Yu Wenxian, the Duke of Qi, said: "General, we have wasted too much time in Longmen. If this continues...if we find the General Chariot and Rider, we have gained something. If...if we can't find the General Chariot , the number of troops in Yiyang is small, and He Shikai wants to quickly capture Yiyang, I'm afraid..."
You don't need Yu Wenxian to tell the whole story, everyone knows very well that if they don't set off for Yiyang now, Yuwenhui will definitely not be able to withstand the [-] troops led by Heshi, and Yiyang will fall by then.
On the one hand, there are illusory hopes, and on the other hand, Yiyang is at stake. What should we do?
Yang Guang raised his head, squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Jian, who closed his eyes. Yang Jian seemed to be asleep, neither opened his eyes nor spoke.
At this moment, there was a sound of "哗啦——" and the curtains were slammed up. Someone walked in from the outside. It was Yang Zan who had just rushed back from the outside.
When everyone saw Yang Zan coming in, they immediately looked at Yang Zan as if every day, wondering if they had found General Yang Zheng today. Still haven't found Yang Zheng.
There is no time to lose...
Yang Zan looked at Yang Jian and said, "Brother... are you going to leave?"
Only then did Yang Jian open his eyes. Before he could answer, Yang Zan's voice gradually became very low, and he said, "We...we have spent too long here, and it is indeed time to leave. I... I I thought the second brother was not dead, I..."
When he said this, his voice was choked up, and he couldn't say a word anymore.
Gao Changgong sighed, stood up, and said, "Let's go back first."
As he said that, he pulled Gao Yanzong out of the shogunate camp, and left first, and the others also left with interest after seeing the scene.
Yang Jian stood up, walked in front of Yang Zan, put his arms around Yang Zan, patted the top of his hair lightly, and said, "Don't worry, the second child will definitely be found."
Yang Zan's voice was hoarse, and he said, "We can't waste time in Longmen. If we delay any longer, what will happen to Yiyang? There are still so many soldiers in Yiyang, they can't be like us..."
One more day of delay would make Yiyang more dangerous. There might be many "Yang Zhengs" and many poor people who lost their loved ones. Although Yang Zan was unwilling to do so, he also considered this point.
Yang Jian narrowed his eyes and said: "Now He Shikai must be stealing us secretly, so the third brother can't stay in Longmen. To be safe, we need to go on the road together. The eldest brother will arrange people to continue searching. Don't worry, we can definitely find the second brother." .”
Yang Zan is a "cultural person", and he doesn't need others to explain many truths. He also understands that He Shikai is eyeing each other, and they need to move forward in groups.Yang Zan really wants to say some willful words, and wants to stay here and continue to look for his second brother Yang Zheng, but if he stays, He Shikai will sneak behind him, which will cause a great burden to Yang Jian, and he doesn't want to hold back others .
Yang Zan said in a low voice: "Brother, I know, let's go tomorrow... let's go."
Yang Jian's army set off from Longmen, marched all the way, went straight south, and marched towards Yiyang.
When He Shikai received the traitor's head, he was terrified, and immediately sent troops to stop them. Yang Jian and the others encountered many ambushes along the way, but because Tang Yong arranged a secret operation in He Shikai's army, they all resolved them one by one. , There is no surprise or danger at all.
The army approached Yiyang, and He Shikai's actions increased. The Yang family ordered to camp nearby and confront Yiyang.
The camp had just been built, Tang Yong had strode in from the outside, and hurriedly said, "Brother Bai, have you seen the general?"
Bai Jian replied, "The general is in the shogunate."
Seeing Tang Yong's hurried appearance, he knew that He Shikai must have made another move.
Soon, Yang Jian summoned all the people in the shogunate to discuss matters. When they entered the shogunate, they all sat down. Yang Jian said, "General Tang, tell me what you heard."
Tang Yong nodded and said, "Heshikai has made another movement. He secretly contacted a group of thieves around Kongcheng, and wants to help them break through Kongcheng."
This year is full of thieves and horse bandits, which is not uncommon. Because the area around Kongcheng is the dividing line between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty, there are many more thieves in this place than in other places.
He Shikai secretly contacted a group of thieves. These thieves are local snakes in Kongcheng, who specialize in attacking passers-by. Sometimes they even dare to rob the army's food, grass and money.And these thieves don't care whether you are in the Northern Zhou Dynasty or the Northern Qi Dynasty, as long as it is profitable, they will burn, kill and loot. The defenders of Kongcheng have repeatedly mobilized troops to condemn them, but it is a pity that these thieves are very alert. The defenders of the city have not found their lair, so they always hit and run, and they can never be eradicated.
He Shikai contacted such a group of people, bribed them with a lot of treasure, and reached an agreement with the thieves.
Tang Yong frowned and said: "If the thieves can kill the defender of Kongcheng and occupy Kongcheng and give it to He Shikai, He Shikai will be grateful."
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this, He Shikai actually invited robbers to steal Kongcheng, once Kongcheng fell, Yiyang would not be far away...
Yang Jian said: "But who are these thieves?"
Tang Yong said: "The horse bandits near Kongcheng, but who they are and where their lairs are, no one knows. The nobles are still ordinary people, they will all rob, if there is no money, they will kill people, the method is extremely cruel, not only that, the horse bandits also like to rob women, the defender of Kongcheng has sent troops to strangle them many times, but they have not gained much .”
Yang Jian glanced sideways at Yang Guang who was sitting on the table. Yang Guang was a natural hacker. It was Yang Guang who found out the base of Hao Abao and Langpi before.
Yang Jian lowered his head and said softly, "Do you have any clues about these thieves?"
Holding his short arms, Yang Guang shook his head and said in a low voice, "No clue."
In his previous life, Yang Guang also heard about the thieves in Kongcheng, and these thieves were very famous.Yiyang has always been a battleground for military strategists, not only because Yiyang is close to Luoyang, but also because Yiyang is the central hub. As long as Yiyang is occupied, it can expand in all directions, so the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi paid great attention to it. Yiyang.
The two sides have been robbing Yiyang. In Yang Guang's memory, there was indeed an incident where thieves killed the defender of Kongcheng and stole Kongcheng and gave it to Beiqi. The war lasted for a long time.
And these thieves, because they were elusive, so after they got the benefits, they patted their buttocks and left directly. When the follow-up soldiers and horses came to Kongcheng, they never saw the thieves again, and they had already fled.
Northern Zhou and Northern Qi were devastated because of Yiyang, who was in the mood to take care of those thieves?So even if Yang Guang knew about it, he didn't know who the thief was or where his base was.
Yang Jian pondered for a while. Although Yang Guang didn't know the details of the thief, he was sure that the thief was indeed bought by He Shikai. If he didn't stop it, the defender of Kongcheng would be killed by the thief. If the city falls, Yiyang will be in danger.
Han Feng sneered and said, "If you're a thief, give me a thousand soldiers and horses, and I'll take him now!"
Yu Wenxian said: "General Han, don't be arrogant."
Tang Yong said: "As far as I know, this group of thieves are haunted. If we don't find their lair and uproot them, Yiyang will always be in danger. Even if we take Yiyang and move to Luoyang, we may be threatened by them. At that time, there will be Qi soldiers and horses to the east, and greedy thieves to the west, and we will be attacked from the front and back, and the situation will only be extremely passive, so we must deal with this group of thieves right now, and we need to root them out!"
Yang Jian nodded slightly, and said: "This is indeed the truth, what General Tang said is correct."
Gao Yanzong propped his cheeks and said: "But...how can we find the lair of the thieves?"
Gao Changgong pondered for a while, and said: "The thieves are greedy for money and like to plunder women. Why don't you use this to lure the thieves out and follow the vines to find the thieves' camp."
It is indeed a good idea. After the thieves catch the "prey", they must bring it back to their base camp. If they can follow the vine, it is naturally the best.
Of course...
Gao Yanzong frowned and said: "We have money, but this female sex... our entire military camp is full of rough men, where did the female sex come from?"
There was Feng Xiaolian before, but now she has been sent to Yecheng in the Northern Qi Dynasty. The closest "female sex" is probably the Ashina girl from Jinyang, but the Ashina girl Nine years old, talkative, although the nobles in the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi scrambled to marry the daughter of Ashina, but in the end, it was all because of her status as the daughter of Ashina. If you put aside this identity, Ashina The country girl is really too young and too young, and the company leader hasn't grown up yet.
Everyone fell into a headache and fell silent for a moment. Han Feng sighed and said, "It would be great if Xiaomai was here. Xiaomao looks so good-looking and has a suitable size."
Yuchi Youqi was relatively late in development, and it is reasonable for boys to grow slowly.The baby girl has delicate features, red lips and white teeth, and a slender figure. At first glance, she really looks like a beautiful lady.
Yu Wenxian glanced at Han Feng sideways, and said: "General Han, don't forget that Mr. Yuchi is far away in Yiyang now. The general asked Mr. Yuchi to deliver a letter a few days ago. The thieves may have stolen the Kongfu a long time ago. city."
Han Feng said: "Then what do you think should be done?"
Gao Yanzong suddenly laughed and said, "He!"
He said, pointing at Gao Changgong, Gao Changgong's forehead twitched suddenly, and then Gao Yanzong continued: "Look at how good-looking he is, let him pretend to be a woman, and he will definitely not reveal his secrets!"
Gao Changgong rubbed his forehead and said, "Ayan, do you think my figure is suitable?"
Gao Changgong was indeed handsome. If he dressed up as a woman and added some pink and black, he would definitely be stunning, but it's a pity...
Gao Changgong belongs to the tall, broad-shouldered type. Even if you can see your face behind women's clothing, you can't see your figure. He is taller than ordinary men, and he will definitely show his secrets when he walks out.
Gao Yanzong gave a "tsk", as if he felt that it was impossible, and it was completely off-putting, so everyone looked around with their eyes, and everyone present was sized up, as if they were wondering who would be the most suitable to dress up as a woman.
Everyone checked back and forth, but Yang Zan was the only one sitting on the table, a little lost in thought, maybe he didn't hear them talking.
Their army had already approached Yiyang, but there was still no news from Longmen. Yang Zan was a bit out of his mind these days, and anyone who spoke to him had to yell several times.
Yang Jian's eyes rolled slightly, and he said thoughtfully: "Do you think... the third brother is suitable?"
"Join the army?" Everyone's gazes gathered together, all fixed on Yang Zan.
Yang Zan said "Ah?", and then he came to his senses and said, "What...is it suitable?"
Yang Zan didn't hear clearly at all, he just nodded and said, "It's suitable...does the eldest brother send the younger brother to do something? It's suitable, the younger brother can do anything."
Everyone's gaze immediately "sharpened", indeed... very appropriate.
Yang Zan's figure is tall, not the tall type, and he is a cultural person on weekdays, very gentle, although a little taller than ordinary women, but it is much better than Gao Changgong's broad shoulders.
In addition, Yang Zan himself is delicate and elegant, with a gentle temperament, if he can cover it with makeup, it should... not be a problem.
Brother Gao Yanzong, Yang Jian turned out to be a brother, Yang Guang rubbed his forehead helplessly.
In fact, Yang Jian also has "difficulties". These days Yang Zan is always out of his mind, and he is always in a daze on weekdays.
Yang Zan didn't know why, but seeing other people staring at him was full of "urgency", as if he was a hero of the world.
Gao Yanzong smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad, suitable and suitable!"
Han Feng also said: "Why did I forget to join the army, it's appropriate!"
Yu Wenxian said: "It should be able to deceive people's eyes and ears."
Gao Changgong avoided a catastrophe, although he was a bit unkind, he coughed and said, "Chang Gong also thinks that joining the army is the best choice."
Yang Zan said confusedly, "What is the mission? Is it so important?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows at Yang Zan, and then said, "Why don't you call me to join the army?"
There was no one in the army who could put makeup on Yang Jian, so I found one temporarily. The old woman stared at Yang Zan with bright eyes, and said with a smile: "Oh, Mr. Xiaolang's face is so good! Oh, it's so delicate. Hey, hey, look at this Liu Yeermei, it really compares to ordinary women! I can guarantee that after I have done it, this young master is probably five hundred miles away. Beautiful little lady!"
"Little..." Little lady! ?
Yang Zan stared at the rouge and gouache on the table, and then vaguely felt that something was wrong. He was clearly a man, so why did he become a lady?And what are these rouge powders for?
The old woman wanted to "trick" Yang Zan, but Yang Zan was a man of culture, how could he be so unruly, he was so frightened that he stood up immediately and wanted to run away.
Yang Jian squeezed the third younger brother's shoulder, pushed him back onto the mat, and said with a smile, "Third younger brother, where can we escape?"
Yang Zan's eyelids twitched wildly, and he said, "Brother... what's going on, brother?"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "Just now, the third younger brother has agreed, a man, how can you go back on your word?"
"I..." Yang Zan said, "What did I promise?"
Yang Jian showed a "secret" smile and said, "A man disguises himself as a woman."
"Women's clothing!?" Yang Zan, the third child who had always been refined and refined, yelled out, with an expression of disbelief.
The old woman stared at Yang Zan like a wolf, and Yang Zan couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "But...but my brother is a man, absolutely not...no...or let's discuss it and find someone... ... find a woman."
Yang Jian sighed and said, "Third brother, if you don't want to disguise yourself as a man, we can find any woman to replace you. If someone refuses, it's not difficult to forcefully arrest a woman, but..."
Yang Jian changed the subject and said: "Third brother, think about it. Those thieves are wolves. This little lady doesn't know martial arts. If she is captured and abused, what should I do? They can protect themselves? Third brother? Didn't you entrap the innocent little lady?"
Yang Zan's face froze, indeed... this is indeed the truth, he has always had a sense of justice, he is an "angry youth", and immediately said: "No! Absolutely no!"
Yang Jiansha nodded wisely and said, "Yes, of course not, so I can only trouble my third brother."
"But..." Yang Zan always felt that something was wrong, and tried his best to make the last struggle, saying, "But you, brother... you are born much more handsome than my brother, or else...you should come here in person."
Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, my brother, of course the eldest brother will come in person, and the eldest brother will personally see off the third brother."
"Send..." Send off the kiss! ?
Yang Zan thought he heard it wrong, but in fact he didn't, he just sent off his relatives.
Yang Jian has already written the script. The content of the script is that a certain rich lady gets married, beating gongs and drums all the way, bringing a generous dowry, and being escorted by her elder brother Yang Jian.In this way, with money and beauties, and drums and gongs, are you afraid that those thieves will not hear you?
Yang Jian smiled and said to the old woman: "Please trouble the old man, give my brother a pure and charming makeup."
The old woman laughed "Ouch" and said, "Don't worry, don't worry! That's great, this young master is very talented! Look, the skin is so beautiful without makeup, just a little bit of paint, it will definitely fascinate a man." Already!"
Yang Zan: "..." It sounds weird.
"Brother!"
"Brother, let's discuss it again!"
"Big Brother... Big Brother, don't go, Big Brother——"
Yang Jian gave Yang Zan a reassuring look, turned around and left the house with a smile, and closed the door thoughtfully before leaving.
As soon as the door was closed, Yang Zan's shouts were stopped immediately, but a thrilling "scream" was still vaguely heard from inside.
"Hey! Young master, your face is so delicate. Look at the color of this makeup, it suits you very well. If I were a man, I would definitely be fascinated by you!"
"Oh! The color of this hairpin makes the young master's skin so white!"
"My lord, do you like cross temples or single snail temples? Are cloud temples too ordinary to complement the beauty of my lord!"
Yang Jian heard the voice in the house, chuckled lightly, and said, "It seems that the third brother is busy."
Yang Guang's eyelids twitched wildly, and he always felt that his father treated him too softly, and being a child really had privileges.
Yang Jian said again: "Let's go, son, we can't be idle."
Yang Guang raised his fleshy face and said, "Father, where are you going?"
Yang Jian said: "Since we are going to see off relatives, why don't we make some wedding cakes?"
As he spoke, he took Yang Guang's little hand and walked towards the dining room.
Xu Minqi happened to be in the dining room, when Yang Jian saw him, he smiled and said, "Doctor Xu."
"General." Xu Minqi bowed his hands "timidly". He is so tall and big, with a "little white rabbit" expression on his face. Anyone who sees him for the first time may be shocked and get goosebumps all over his body. Fortunately, Yang Jian is no longer surprised.
Xu Minqi was the only one who surrendered without being persuaded to surrender. Because Xu Minqi was timid and very afraid of strangers, after he came to Yang Jian's barracks, he would do whatever Yang Jian asked him to do, and he never dared to say a word , full peace of mind.
Yang Jian said: "I don't know if Dr. Xu can mix some medicinal powder and put it in the cakes and food. After eating some, he will feel like drunk. He will be so sleepy that he can't wake up no matter how much he screams."
When Xu Minqi heard this, his face was full of embarrassment, and he didn't dare to look up at Yang Jian. Yang Jian instantly understood that Xu Minqi must be able to make this kind of medicine powder, but this kind of medicine powder is not upright enough, so it's hard to open his mouth.
Yang Jian said: "Jian urgently needs such medicinal powder, please make some."
"Yes..." Xu Minqi dared not refuse, and immediately began to prepare the medicine powder.
Yang Guang was a little surprised, what did Yang Jian want such a "dirty" medicinal powder?In fact, this kind of medicinal powder is not uncommon, and it is used by dirty people to do bad things, and it is quite common among nobles.
Yang Jian began to wash his hands, rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's time to give the thieves some extra food."
How can you miss the wedding cake when sending off your relatives?Wedding cakes were very popular when Yang Jian was a child, but they gradually became less and less popular when he grew up, and were replaced by many western-style breads.
In fact, the taste of wedding cakes is just like Chinese bread. It is also leavened. It can be directly made into slightly sweet white cakes, or you can add fillings inside. It tastes soft and sweet, and it is a good snack.
Yang Jian neatly kneaded the noodles and prepared spices. Naturally, all kinds of traditional jujube paste and sesame spices were indispensable. Yang Jian also prepared some quicksand and salted egg yolk fillings. When he was ready, Xu Minqi brought the finished medicine powder over. , Pass it to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian was also unambiguous, and immediately "swish, swish, swish" a few times, sprinkle the medicinal powder on various fillings, stir evenly, then wrap it in the noodles, press the wedding cakes into small pancakes, and then bake them in the pan cooked.
The smell of the baked wedding cake is overflowing. The surface of the wedding cake is baked and becomes slightly browned, while the inside is white. When you break it open, a strong aroma bursts out.
There was medicinal powder in the stuffing, so it was inedible, so Yang Jian handed Yang Guang a baked plain wedding cake without filling, and asked Yang Guang to try it.
Slightly sweet, not greasy, the newly baked wedding cake is still a little hot, but it does not hinder the deliciousness, the skin is brown and attractive, the taste is soft, the more you chew, the more delicious it is, the little bun Yang Guang is holding a plate that looks like his face The round wedding cake, I ate it with relish, the crumbs of the wedding cake were all over my face, I nodded seriously, and said, "It's so thick!"
Yang Jian smiled faintly and said, "It's good if it's delicious, and if you ask them to eat more, it's cheaper sometimes."
Yang Jian's plan is very clear, Yang Zan will dress up as Xi Niang, and he will follow to see off his relatives. There should not be too many people in the team, lest they show their feet. Except for some soldiers dressed as servants, everyone else must stand by and wait for the thieves to catch him. The team that saw off the relatives went up the mountain, and after entering the base camp, they left with the pot.
At that time, the thieves ate the wedding cakes with extra ingredients and fell asleep, and the soldiers rushed to the village without doing anything, wouldn't it be very convenient?
Yang Jian made the wedding cake and walked back with Yang Guang, the little bun. Yang Guang was holding a half-bitten wedding cake in his hand and gnawing on it.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the house, the door of the house had already been opened, and Gao Yanzong's "hahaha" laughter came from inside, the laughter almost knocked the house down.
"Hahahaha! Dressed like this for joining the army, you look decent!"
"Sure enough, she looks like a little lady, no, no, she is much more beautiful than ordinary little ladies!"
Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and walked in. Yang Zan was surrounded in the middle, three floors inside and three floors outside, and no one could be seen for a while. When everyone saw Yang Jian, they immediately moved out of the way. Gao Yanzong said: "Look at this Lord Sanlang, it’s really like that! That old woman’s technique is really amazing!"
Yang Jian looked at it, couldn't help laughing, and said, "What a symbolic little lady."
Yang Zan had already put on makeup, and more than that, he also put on a wedding dress, which was wide and wide, and covered Yang Zan's body, making him look extremely thin. It was completely impossible to tell that Yang Zan was actually a martial artist.
Yang Zan's skin was originally cold white, but with the addition of some powder, it looked even fairer and more translucent, like a flawless jade, his cheeks were slightly red, his eyebrows were painted, his lips were stained with crimson balm, and his hair was loose. The temples were loosely tied, under Yang Zan's strong request, instead of the soaring snake temples, the most common cloud temples.
The temple hair is combed into a thin piece, like the clouds in the sky. Although the cloud temple is the most common hairstyle at this time, there is also a reason for being ordinary. Because most women comb this kind of temple hair, it becomes common over time. It is because of the classics that so many women like this ordinary hairstyle.
The daily life is simple, not too high-profile, but not lacking in fairy spirit. The biggest feature of Yunbin is that it is full of fairy spirit.
When Yang Zan heard his elder brother teasing him, he immediately stared. Because of Fen Dai, the staring became soft, not staring at all, it was coquettish, at most coquettish.
Yang Jian clapped his palms and said, "It's very good. When those thieves saw my third brother, they must have lost their minds and stopped running away."
Yang Guang: "..."
Everyone was almost ready, so it was time to start acting. Seeing that the sky was dusk, it was time to act.
Yang Jian withdrew his official robes, put on ordinary uniforms, and pretended to see off his relatives. Gao Changgong was a little worried, and said, "General, do you really need us to follow? We can also pretend to be servants to see off our relatives."
Yang Jian shook his head and said, "No need, there are so many people, it's easy to reveal the truth, and look at yourself, which one looks like a servant?"
Gao Changgong pretended to be a refugee, but Yang Jian recognized him at first glance. He really didn't look like a refugee, let alone other people.
Yang Jian got on his horse and said, "If the thieves show up, don't act rashly, so as not to scare the snakes. Make sure the thieves enter their lair, wait for the opportunity, and catch them all. If you miss the opportunity this time, it will be difficult to strike next time."
Everyone nodded and said, "Yes, General!"
Yang Jian said to Yang Guang again: "My son is waiting obediently, father and father will be back soon."
Yang Guang wants to follow the team, but with his current appearance, it is absolutely impossible to follow the team. After all, who is married with a baby?
Yang Guang nodded like an adult, and said, "Father, be careful."
Yang Jian said loudly: "Let's be more lively, let the little lady get married!"
As soon as his words fell, the soldiers disguised as servants began to beat gongs and drums, and walked forward in a "swaggering way".
The fiery red send-off team was like a long dragon, with exquisite dowry and strong horses. Yang Jian couldn't believe it. With such a big fat sheep, wouldn't the thieves be envious after seeing it?
The crowd set off at dusk and walked all the way through the remote mountain road. Seeing that the sky was getting dark and it was going to be dark, there was still no trace of the horse bandits.
Yang Zan was a little anxious, the main reason was that he was sitting in the luggage cart, and felt a little nauseous from being shaken, so he lifted the curtain of the luggage cart slightly, and said softly, "Brother..."
Yang Jian saw that he poked his head out, and immediately pushed him back, saying, "Don't come out, don't make a sound."
Although Yang Zan could dress up as a woman, his voice could not be changed, it was a little low and might give away his secrets.
Yang Zan was pushed back into the carriage, and at this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of "Boom--", it was the sound of horseshoes, coming from all directions, directly surrounding them.
Yang Jian squinted his eyes and smiled, and said in his heart.
Sure enough, it was thieves. A large number of thieves rushed down from the mountain, laughing and saying, "Look! A fat sheep!"
"The team to send off relatives? Looks like a rich family!"
"Don't talk about money, I just want to see if the little lady is beautiful or not!"
The thieves swarmed up and surrounded their team. Yang Jian pretended to be very scared and said: "Heroes and heroes, we pass by a treasure land and don't want to disturb you. Please be flexible. This is... this is ours. Your filial piety!"
As he spoke, he quickly took out some money. The box was opened, and the money inside was piled up in pieces. When the thief saw it, his eyes lit up immediately, and he burst out with a greedy wolf light.
The thief laughed loudly and said, "Is this little money going to send a beggar!? Brothers?"
"Yes! Yes! That's right!"
"I think we just robbed their family sending team. The money and coins are all ours, and this little lady, hahaha, I don't know what to do with the little lady from a rich family. Let's take it up the mountain and honor the elder brother!"
"Yes! Catch them all!"
The thieves were really greedy, Yang Jian showed some money, those thieves immediately took the bait, rushed up to arrest them, the soldiers pretended to be servants, did not resist at all, and were all caught soon.
Yang Jian yelled "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Ho-"
The curtain of the car was pulled down, and the thieves gasped immediately, staring at the "bridal" Yang Zan in shock, Yang Zan also gasped, afraid that they would see the clue, and his heart would tremble with fright stand up.
Unexpectedly, the thieves sighed at the next moment: "It's so beautiful!"
"I'm afraid it's a fairy!"
"I've never seen such a beautiful little lady!"
"Take it up the mountain, honor the elder brother, hahaha!"
Yang Zan turned pale with fright, but it wasn't because he was afraid of thieves, but because he was afraid of being discovered. After all, it was his first time to drive ducks to the shelves, and he had no experience in this field at all. Pale, no doubt at all, just feel more lovely.
Yang Jian pretended to be panicked and shouted: "What are you doing! Let go of my sister! Do you know who my sister is!? She is going to marry Kong Chengfang as his wife! You horse thieves, you can afford it!" ?"
"Kongcheng defender?"
Yang Jian just tried it a little bit, and the thieves immediately laughed and said: "What is the defender of Kongcheng!? Our elder brother took his head in the past two days! You are so beautiful, little lady, don't marry me!" For that short-lived defender, I'm afraid he will soon become a widow! Come on, it's better to follow us up the mountain!"
Yang Jian narrowed his eyes calmly, and sneered in his heart, as expected, he knew it was really this gang of horse thieves after he tried it.
The thieves laughed at Yang Jian, feeling that they had taken advantage of it, because they thought that the bride was going to marry someone who defended Kongcheng, so it was reasonable to take this remote route and have a lot of generous dowry, so they didn't do much Suspect.
The thieves shouted: "Let's go! Take them all back and go up the mountain!"
The thieves went up the mountain, Gao Yanzong and others were in ambush in the dark, Gao Yanzong was a little impatient and said, "Let's follow!"
"Wait," Gao Changgong said: "Don't be impatient, these horse thieves are elusive, it must be not easy, you can't follow too close, lest all previous efforts will be wasted."
Sure enough, these thieves were very cautious. Although they wanted to take the captives up the mountain, they didn't go straight to their lair immediately. Instead, they turned around the mountain twice, and after a long circle, they quickly returned to their original place, as if they were afraid that someone would follow them. generally.
"I'll just say it, it must be true."
"Yes, it belongs to you who are suspicious. Let's get better now. It can't be a trap. Let's go up the mountain quickly!"
"Yes, back to the village!"
Only then did the thieves start to go up the mountain again. Gao Yanzong squatted in the grass, frowned and said, "This thieves are quite cautious."
Gao Changgong said softly: "Follow carefully, don't be reckless, now that the general and Lord Sanlang are in the hands of thieves, we must be more careful."
Yang Jian and Yang Zan were taken up the mountain by thieves, and there was indeed a cottage on the mountain, the location was very hidden, no wonder the soldiers of Kongcheng couldn't find it, if there were no acquaintances to lead the way, outsiders would not be able to get here.
The scale of the cottage is not too big, but it is enough to accommodate 1000 people. When the thieves saw them coming back, they immediately laughed and said, "They even brought back a woman!"
"What a beautiful little lady!"
"Today's harvest is quite good!"
Yang Jian and Yang Zan were escorted into the lobby of the cottage, "Boom!" Pushing in, several thieves followed up laughing and sizing Yang Zan carefully.
Yang Zan fell to the ground, his sideburns were pulled lazily, but when he was pushed, they became a little loose, which was unavoidably more charming. The thief seemed to have never seen such a beautiful "little lady", and said happily, "Little lady is so beautiful." Zhen'er is beautiful, the eldest brother has not come back yet, come here, let the brothers kiss first."
As the thieves said, they all gathered around, Yang Zan narrowed his eyes, although he was a literati, he actually practiced martial arts, and immediately his fists crackled.
"Ouch! This little lady is staring at me!"
"The little eyes are so pretty! It makes my heart itch!"
"Oh, you want to tickle me to death!"
Yang Zan couldn't bear it anymore, and when he was about to have an attack, Yang Jian quickly stepped forward to stop him. It seemed that he was afraid that the thieves would bully his "sister", but in fact, he was afraid that the third brother would rush up and beat her up, and said Those who folded were all begging for mercy, saying: "All heroes! All heroes! Hold your hand high, hold your hand high, my sister is going to marry, this can't... can't... Heroes, please spare us, and all the money will be given to you , all for you, as long as you let us go,
