The dream of a lonely hero

Yan Yun was not afraid in the face of danger and remained motionless.

Shang Feiyan's sword pierced his clothes and pierced his skin. Blood flowed down the blade, and he sat there waiting for death.

Shang Feiyan was shocked, and after a while, he became furious and said:"Okay! What a desperado, extremely cruel. You don't cherish your own life, let alone pity the lives of others. Your chivalry and righteousness are just for fame! Today! I can't do anything to you, remember, I will make you never live in peace forever!""Danglang" dropped the dagger and left in anger.

Yan Yun stood frozen and asked himself: Am I just trying to gain fame? Am I cruel? Am I a coward? Who am I, who am I? Have I made the decision for myself? Is Shang Feiyan crazy? A series of questions confused him.

Shang Yuanzhong loved his daughter Shang Feiyan with all kinds of love, and he was not willing to be careless about her marriage. He had a lot of three books and six etiquettes. Although he knew that Yan Yun was in a tight situation and kept everything simple, he still cared about Yan Yun, who was a low-ranking official in the Yamen and only had a monthly salary of several thousand dollars. We are already stretched thin. Yan Yundong borrowed 700 to 800 guan from the west to buy a first-floor house in the west lane of the county and buy some personal belongings. He also spent a lot of money on gifts such as jewelry and fine silks. Half a month later, the Shang and Yan families were all ready. They chose an auspicious day and began the last step of the wedding process.

Although Yan Yun was only a county official, he was still a prominent figure in the eyes of ordinary people in Yulong County. He was also a close friend of the county magistrate Fang Xun. His marriage shocked half of Yulong County. On the day of welcoming the bride, there was a rush of pipes and strings, noisy drums, people cheering and horses barking, and the spectators were like a crowd.

A welcoming procession surrounded the bridegroom Yan Yun, and they walked on the road to welcome the bride with winds and drums, people singing, and horses neighing. Fang Xun and Yuanda were among the procession. Yan Yun was riding a horse in red with flowers, and behind him was Shang Feiyan's eight-carriage sedan.

Not long after walking, five people on horseback came from a distance, four of them were attendants of the public servant and one was an official of the public servant. The official has a white dragon horse under his crotch. He has a face like a crown of jade, with thick eyebrows and high eyebrows, long eyelashes, water-cut pupils, and red lips. He is elegant and suave, with a jade tree facing the wind. He is wearing a light blue official robe of the ninth grade. Wearing black boots with white soles; when she saw Yan Yun and others, she took out her jade-screen flute and started playing it; the sound of the flute rose like clouds and flew like snow, changing in a graceful and melodious way, which was incompatible with the sound of the wedding drums.

The bride in the sedan chair, Shang Feiyan, is quite familiar with music. Amidst the mingled sounds of people and drums, she can still hear the lingering and lingering sound of the jade flute, just like the silent spring rain that"sneaks into the night with the wind", He played the endless rainy clouds, and was intoxicated in the tender and affectionate music melody,"I don't know the way back". After a while, I was overjoyed and exclaimed:"Yan Feng - it's Yan Feng! Who else can play this song except him?""This heavenly sound of rain and clouds"; he raised his red hijab and opened the curtain of the sedan chair, looked up and saw that the official playing the flute was Yan Feng; he stamped his feet and said:"Stop, stop!". Before the bearer stopped, Shang Feiyan jumped off the sedan and ran towards Yanfeng desperately.

Yan Feng came to Zhenzhou with official robes.

This started with Jin Huarong, the magistrate of Tuzheng County eight years ago. Jin Huarong was originally a scoundrel in Zhenzhou. When he was young, he joined the army and was promoted step by step with his cunning, alertness, desperation, and ruthlessness. He was appreciated by his immediate boss, Li Weidong, and finally became the magistrate of Tuzheng County. On the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month in the first year of Qiande, Liao soldiers massacred Tuzheng County in Dingzhou. Yan Bozheng was stabbed several times in the chest by the county magistrate Jin Huarong. Shang Yuanzhong was about to kill Jin Huarong, so he let Jin Huarong go after Yan Bozheng persuaded him.

Jin Huarong, his wife and children fled for their lives in a hurry under personal escort, and their youngest son died in the rebellion. Two months after the Liao soldiers sacked Tuzheng County, Jin Huarong defected to his boss Li Weidong. Li Weidong was promoted to the military envoy of Anguo because he assisted Zhao Guangyi, the prince of Liangcheng County and Kaifeng Prefecture, in completing the"Great Victory of Tuzheng". Li Weidong's widowed and lame sister Li Weiqing fell in love with Jin Huarong, who married his wife He Meiqi. He Meiqi hanged herself in anger, and her daughter Jin Zhumei was not ashamed of her father's actions and severed the relationship between father and daughter and ran away from home. Jin Huarong was promoted to the governor of Sanwei Prefecture by Li Weidong.

Yan Feng returned from studying with an expert who had special skills and demanded high tuition fees. He used despicable means of extortion, extortion, and hard and soft tactics to seize most of the business in Sanwei Prefecture, and destroyed many merchants in Sanwei Prefecture. His wife was separated and his family was broken up. The people of Sanwa Prefecture were afraid of him like a tiger and called him"Zhen Sanwa". The Wudu Shenwu Team of the Sixth Battalion of the Jinzhou Xiang Army had a new team leader after Yan Feng left. The new team was using its own people to replace Xu San, the officer in charge when Yan Feng was the team leader. Xu San wandered around, and met Yan Feng by chance in Sanwa Prefecture, and was taken in by Yan Feng as his confidant. When Xu San saw that Yan Feng had turned Sanqi Prefecture upside down, he was very alarmed and advised:"Master Yan, you can't do this anymore. It's a big deal to alarm the Yamen, it's a big deal!"

Yan Feng said with a smile:"Look You look like a bear! Grandpa just wants to alarm the Yamen."

Xu San was stunned and said:"Master Yan, you - you are crazy, you were caught by the Yamen and wanted to be sent to Junshamendao!"

Yan Feng said"You're afraid! If you're afraid, just leave. I won't force you to stay." Xu San was emboldened by him and said,"Who - who is afraid? Master Yan is not afraid, so what else should I be afraid of?"

As soon as he arrived, Hong Ke, the housekeeper of Jin Huarong, the governor of Sanwa Prefecture, came to the door with his bow-legged legs and two followers. Yan Feng secretly rejoiced: Jin Huarong, the governor, was indeed as greedy as before.

Yan Feng patted Hong Ke's buttocks and held his butt in his arms, setting up wine and a banquet to take care of him. After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Yan Feng said with a smile,"I'm so flattered when my boss comes to my humble abode. I'm so flattered!"

Hong Ke said with a sullen face:"Okay, okay! Master Hong has never seen anything before. Don't use good-sounding things to fill Mr. Hong, I think good-sounding things are just farts!"

Yan Feng smiled apologetically and said:"What Mr. Hong said is true, what I'm talking about is just farts - no, not even as good as farts. Come on!"

Xu San has already prepared three packages of silver and presented them, one package of one hundred taels, and two packages of fifty taels each.

Yan Feng held a bundle of one hundred taels of silver in his hands and gave it to Hong Ke, and said with a smile:"It's just a small thing, I hope Master Hong will accept it!"

Xu San gave the two bags of silver to Hong Ke's two followers respectively. Smiling:"The superior is happy to accept it, the superior official is happy to accept it!"

The gift given by Yan Feng was certainly not thin, and the two followers did not dare to accept it and looked at Hong Ke.

Hong Ke took the baggage, weighed it, and said with a sneer:"Haha! The monthly income you robbed from your business in Sanchu Prefecture is two thousand taels less. This kind of thing can only send us beggars away, but don't Forgot about the Bodhisattva (prefect Jin Huarong) in this three-thirds of an acre! Grandpa has no time to beat around the bush for you. How many percent of the Bodhisattvas do you have to worship San'an?"

Yan Fengmei smiled and said:"Good morning, little one. I have the heart to show filial piety to the Bodhisattva Sanwa, but I don’t have the chance! I plan to pay 100% to show filial piety."

Hong Ke was suspicious: Yan Feng is crazy! All income should be used to honor the governor?

Yan Feng looked at Hong Ke, who was suspicious of ghosts and gods, and said solemnly:"My sincerity is sincere, and Wanwang Bodhisattva will never give up!"

Hong Ke looked at Yan Feng, who was sincerely respectful, but still doubtful, and said:"One word is settled. ?"

Yan Feng said categorically:"Young man, I will never regret it!"

Hong Ke looked at him again, thought for a moment, and said,"You must ask for something when you are polite. Do you really have nothing else to ask for?"

Yan Feng said:"Master Jin is the parent of Sanxiaozhou, and the younger one is the innocent son of his parents. As a son, how can we ask for filial piety to our parents?"

Hong Ke said:"Then let's establish the word as proof!"

Yan Yan said :"Young one - I still want something I don't want."

Hong Ke said:"Haha! Huangkou boy, what are you playing?"

Yan Feng said:"I just want to see the dignity of my 'parents', Wanwang Mr. Hong makes it happen!"

Hong Ke said:"You have such a big face. My master is a prince, how can you just meet him when we meet him?"

Yan Feng wanted to see the two followers, but Hong Ke clearly ordered the followers. avoid.

Yan Feng said:"I am willing to give half of my business to Mr. Hong, and I hope that Mr. Hong will fulfill my sincere heart."

Hong Ke said:"It is rare for you to be filial to my master."

Yan Fengdao ordered Xu San to take the Four Treasures of the Study He took it and signed a document on the spot to present half of his property to Hong Ke. He dried the ink, folded his hands and handed it to him.

Hong Ke took the receipt and put it in his arms, with a smile on his face and said:"When you find the right opportunity, Mr. Hong will introduce it to you. Just wait for the good news!"

Then Yan Feng sent Hong Ke and his two entourages away attentively. Go away, Hong Ke and others happily left with the money on their backs.

Hong Ke benefited from Yan Feng and naturally said a lot of good things in front of the governor Jin Huarong. Jin Huarong was so cunning and deduced that there was something fishy going on, but he didn't want to tell the truth. He also wanted to see who Yan Feng was who was so willing to spend money. One day, Jin Huarong summoned Yan Feng at the Cuju court of his residence.

Jin Huarong is of medium build, with a fair complexion, swollen eyes, and a garlicky nose. He wears a soap gauze corner cluster flower scarf on his head, a purple embroidered tunic-collared robe, an exquisite jade sash around his waist, and a pair of gold threads on his feet. Apply green soap to your boots. I was playing Cuju with six or seven Qing guests.

There are two tutu standing next to the Cuju court. They are both in their twenties and thirties, with strong builds, wearing monk robes and swords hanging from their waists. One has a white face and blue eyes, and the other has a rhinoplasty and deep eyes. Not like a Middle-earth person. These two monks are disciples of Zen Master Huiguang, the abbot of Changshou Temple in Xijing, the"Blue-Eyed Golden-haired Jialan Town in Zhongzhou". The white-faced one is Xiang Zechun, the"Iron-Arm Toutuo", and the one with the nose job is"Gunlang Novice" Li Youcun. Jin Huarong knew that he relied on his official position to prey on the people, fearing that the assassin would seek revenge, so he hired two disciples of Zen Master Huiguang,"Iron Arm Toutuo" Xiang Zechun and"Gunlang Novice" Li Youcun, to serve as his bodyguards. Although he was at home that day, he was still afraid that Yanfeng would come to assassinate him in the name of Jin Jian, so he immediately summoned Xiang Zechun and Li Youcun to follow him.

Jin Huarong played football with Qingke with great interest, while Yan Feng stood carefully and watched from behind. After playing for a while, several young players showed poor skills. Jin Huarong lost interest and turned to the people around him, saying:"Alas! There is no one in such a big Sanxia Prefecture who can play a few games with me. It's disappointing, it's really disappointing!

" Feng had the courage to step forward and salute, saying:"Enxiang! I kicked you a few times randomly, I wonder if I can accompany Enxiang to kick a few more times?"

Jin Huarong looked at Yan Feng, who was handsome and handsome, and felt a little embarrassed. Feeling good about it, he said:"Since you are playing football, there is no need to be restrained. Let's get on the field quickly!"

Yan Feng pulled up the front of his robe and tied it at the side of his belt, and cautiously entered the Cuju field. Yan Feng is skillful in turning, creeping, riding, kicking and twisting with ease."The wind moves the lotus, the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves, and the world is turned upside down." After only a few kicks, Jin Huarong couldn't help but cheer. Yan Feng used all his skills in his life."Fishing on dry land, Buddhas entering the house, mandarin ducks turning around, dragons swinging their tails, fish hooks hanging, swallows returning to their nests" This ball is like a swim bladder glued to the body. Jin Huarong cheered continuously and couldn't help but kick up the ball with Yan Feng. Jin Huarong had a great time kicking the ball. After about half an hour, he collected the ball and asked with great interest:"What is the descendant's name?"

Yan Feng said:"In return for my kindness, I am a small businessman Jia Yanfeng."

Jin Huarong remembered Hong The person whom Ke had spoken kindly to was smiling calmly and said:"Yan Feng is so courageous! He bullied the city in Sanchu Prefecture, illegally amassed money, and wanted to bribe this prefecture. Are you aware of your crime?"

Yan Feng knelt down and said:"The little one knows that it is true to amass money, but it is false to bribe the favor. The favor is for the country and the country, and he is working hard for the common people. However, he is a commoner and a vegetarian, and his sleeves are cool, dragging his body to the point of becoming emaciated. The little one can't bear it.! Don’t say that paying filial piety to the Prime Minister by doing business in San Locus City means paying half of the taxes of San Locus to honor the Prime Minister. It cannot make up for the hard work that the Prime Minister has done for the country and the people. Small things are not for the Prime Minister, but for the country. The common people are doing their best to represent the tens of thousands of households in Sanlu Prefecture. They are really asking for orders for the people, and everyone will accept their kindness!" He took out the account books of all his business in Sanlu City from his arms.

Jin Huarong sneered:"Haha! What a clever talker, he dares to trap this state into dishonesty and injustice! Someone come and kill me!""

""Iron-armed Toutuo" Xiang Zechun drew his sword across Yanfeng's neck. Yanfeng didn't move and he held his neck and killed him.

Jin Huarong said:"Do you think this state dare not kill you?" Yan Feng said:"

If the king wants his ministers to die, the ministers will have to die; if the father wants his sons to die, the sons will have to die." Enxiang is one of the parents, Yanfeng is Enxiang's innocent son, and Yanfeng deserves to die."

Jin Huarong thought for a moment, took the account book from Yanfeng's hand, and said:"Yanfeng, you want to see Benzhou, and it's not just for this, right?"He signaled to Zechun"Iron Arm Toutuo" and returned the sword to Zechun.

Yanfeng said:"Yanfeng is willing to be a benevolent and wealthy boy, and follow the work of dogs and horses."

Jin Huarong said:"There is no shortage of such talents in this state."

Yan Feng said:"Yan Feng knows that En Xiang has hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and Yan Feng doesn't dare to make up for it, but Yan Feng is the person En Xiang needs."

Jin Huarong said:"Oh! What other means are there?"

Yan Feng said:"I know a thing or two about the skills of fists, feet, and swords."

Jin Huarong said:"Oh! It just so happens that there are two people in this state who are proficient in martial arts. Do you dare to compete with them?"

Yan Feng said:"I am willing to learn from you, but these two masters are guests of Enxiang's house. If I hurt them with fists and kicks, how can I afford it?" It would be safer to make a life and death document."

Jin Huarong looked at"Iron Arm Toutuo" Xiang Zechun and"Gunlang Novice" Li Youcun.

Xiang Zechun and Li Youcun were all angry.

Xiang Zechun laughed and said:"You little pretty boy who doesn't know how to live or die. If you say such a big thing, the monk will help you. Bring me a pen and paper."

A servant had already prepared paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and Xiang Zechun and Yanfeng each wrote a document of life and death. Xiang Zechun took off his sword and dropped it to the ground. He jumped into the courtyard eagerly and said,"Young little white-faced boy, The monk told you to know that the sky is high and thick, come on!

Yan Feng didn't show any weakness and said,"Master, please give me some advice.""

Xiang Zechun waved his iron fist like a galloping horse and hit Yan Feng with several"Raging Waves" in succession. Yan Feng used"Shocking Snake to Pull Grass" to dismantle them carefully. The two fought for three to five rounds. Yan Feng He thought that if he couldn't win within ten seconds, Jin Huarong would look down on him, so he planned to fight quickly. Xiang Zechun was a disciple of Zen Master Huiguang, the abbot of Changshou Temple in Xijing,"the blue-eyed golden-haired Jialan Town in Zhongzhou". Taking Yan Feng's skin and tender flesh into his eyes, he thought that Yan Feng would be deflated with two or three punches. Unexpectedly, he lasted for three or five rounds during the fight. He was so angry that he resorted to his special skills, one move. More fierce and swift than a move,"counting sand in the sea""、""The quiet sea is turning over waves" and"the mountains and the sea" are approaching Yanfeng's Xiasanlu and Shangsanlu are galloping away. Yanfeng is"crouching snake and crouching in the grass""、""Soaring Snake Jumps over the Stream" to resolve the incoming move, and suddenly turned from defense to attack, using the"Spiritual Snake Wrapping Branch" move to wrap his right arm around Xiang Zechun's right arm and pull it violently in the opposite direction,"Strange python regurgitates""""Crack!" Xiang Zechun was pushed out more than ten feet away and fell heavily to the ground. The pain was excruciating."Ouch!""It was inferred that Yan Feng's arm was wrapped around him."Iron-armed Tutuo" Xiang Zechun was by no means an ordinary person. His defeat was mainly due to his arrogance and underestimation of the enemy. Yan Feng took advantage of his weakness and focused on defense to show weakness and lure the enemy into the front. Move to check the opponent's true and false situation, and when you see the opponent's flaws, you will not hesitate to strike back quickly.
