1 "A generation of famous flowers finally fell, and they died in Yingtian Mansion"
? In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the society was dark, and treacherous officials were in power, causing chaos in the court. Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, Tong After all, Yang Jian was the most serious. The four of them were in high positions and acted in a cowardly manner.
? It is said that after Song Jiang's rebel army pacified Fangla, Huizong listened to the slander of Gao Qiu and other villains and gave him poisonous wine. Song Jiang died and was buried in Liao'erwa. After Wu Yong and Hua Rong heard the news, they came to Song Jiang's tomb with mixed feelings and despair. They took off their clothes and hanged themselves under the tree. As the saying goes, one is devoted to loyalty, but one's heart is broken because of loyalty. Poor one hundred and eight generals, scattered to the ends of the earth, each of them perishing.
?
? After Hua Rong pacified Fangla, he was named the capital of Yingtian Mansion. After his death, everyone in the government and the public was shocked. One day, during Huizong's morning visit, Cai Jing held a three-foot ivory wat tablet in both hands and stood in front of his head: "To report to the emperor, I have a memorial. That Hua Rong was an official of the imperial court. He received the emperor's favor, but did not want to serve the country, so he hanged himself in Songjiang River. In front of the tomb, he used his death to frighten the emperor's power, which was really disrespectful. He begged the emperor to put everyone in the Hua Mansion into death row as a countermeasure." At the same time, Gao Qiu, Tong Guan and others were fanning the flames. Huizong's lard fooled his heart, and with one accurate sentence, 38 people in the Hua Mansion were plunged into dire straits.
Let’s talk about Hua Rong’s younger brother Hua Xiangyang, who is known as Ji Lü Ling. This man has an extremely fiery temperament, is uninhibited, has a naturally ruthless appearance, is eight feet tall, has eyebrows that are raised and eyebrows raised, and eyes that are angry. He has a strong back and a strong waist. Although he is a compatriot, he is completely different from the other two. Hua Xiangyang made a single-chain meteor hammer. The handle was made of dark iron, with dark patterns of gilded blood vines printed on both sides. The soft rope was made of fine steel chains, about nine feet long. The mace hammer was made of high-quality tungsten iron. , weighing seventy or eighty kilograms, he usually does not make a living, and makes a living by collecting debts from gambling houses. Occasionally he has some spare money, and he also helps poor neighbors. This shows that people should not be judged by their appearance, and he is not an evil person in his heart.
Dusk fell in the blink of an eye, and a burst of short sighs and rapid braying broke the silence of Yingtian Mansion. I saw this man coming outside the wall of Huafu, kicking his feet on the horse, rising into the air, climbing into the wall, going straight to the east door wing, kicking in the door. Hua Rong's wife, Wang, was shocked. After calming down, it turned out to be her second brother Hua Xiangyang, so she cried to her about Hua Rong's suicide.
"Sister-in-law, don't panic. I already know what's going on with my eldest brother. I expect that Huafu will be implicated and I'm here to rescue you. Time is tight. Don't say more. Please hurry up." Quickly pack up the gold and silver, and I will take you and Feng'er out of the city." While packing up, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but burst into tears while looking at her infant son. Hua Rong and Wang had a son named Hua Rufeng, hoping that he could inherit his wind-like archery skills in the future.
Hua Xiangyang outside the house had already dismissed all the attendants and prepared the carriages and horses. Holding her son in both hands and carrying a baggage on her shoulders, Wang reluctantly got into the car. Hua Xiangyang held the reins and drove the chariot and horse towards the east gate of the city. At this time, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court were also rushing towards Hua Mansion.
"Search, everyone will be taken down. If there is resistance, they will be punished on the spot." This man has a face like a pear blossom, a deep voice, wind-eared ears, and rat-like eyes. There is a certain amount of cunning hidden in his eyebrows, and a certain amount of insidiousness in his steps. His short and lean body makes his mouth cold. The Moon Scimitar, under the afterglow of the moonlight, makes him look like a man. People shudder. He is Tai Fu Tong Guan's minister, You Xin, the military commander of Suizhou, and is known as the Ghost Faced Sword in the world. There were about thirty officers and soldiers. They searched all over Hua Mansion. When no one was found, they quickly chased towards the east gate of the city.
? Hua Xiangyang ran northeast after leaving the city gate. After walking for about thirty to fifty miles, he passed through a red pine forest and heard faintly behind him. The sound of horses crowing and noisy, and if you look closely, there are bright red torches, and you can't help but feel bad. The officers and soldiers all rode on their own horses, and the speed was indeed extremely fast. "Prisoner, please stop escaping. I have been ordered by the imperial court to arrest the young Hua Rong family. I will capture him immediately if he doesn't stop." After saying this, a hail of arrows flew towards his head and face, and then You Xin picked up the reins and jumped three feet on his horse. Standing in front of Hua Xiangyang's chariot, he shouted loudly: "If you don't dismount from your horse and be bound, you will be stained with blood in the red pine forest in no time."
"Hua Xiangyang sat in front of the car, picked up the meteor hammer, supported it with his backhand, and jumped up to You Xin. He was so frightened that the horse took three steps back and stopped moving forward. "You Xin, I know you, so don't fart. , give your grandpa a hammer first. "After that, he picked up the hammer and hit You Xin. You Xin's hands and legs exerted force at the same time. The man and horse moved to the right to avoid the blow. Hua Xiangyang saw that he could not succeed, so he held the hammer handle tightly and used his strength to attack the horse. The leg was swept across. You Xin was by no means an easy man, especially on horseback. He lifted the reins and reined in the horse, causing the horse's front hooves to rise into the air. Hua Xiangyang raised his right hand backwards. Withdrawing the meteor hammer, he then used all his strength and swung forward as fast as lightning. It was difficult for You Xin to avoid it. The mace hit the horse squarely on the forehead. The horse neighed and fell to the ground immediately. At this moment, You Xin jumped up, pulled out the Lengyue knife on his back and slashed at Hua Xiangyang. It was too late, but soon, Hua Xiangyang took back the hammer, holding the handle in his right hand and the soft rope in his left hand, like a piece of paper. The taut string of the bow blocked You Xin's sword. In the blink of an eye, Hua Xiangyang turned his left hand again, causing the mace in mid-air to fly towards You Xin. You Xin couldn't dodge to the left and was scratched by the mace. Then he stretched out his right arm and kicked Hua Xiangyang in the lower abdomen.
"You guys, what are you waiting for? Give it to me." Come on, kill without mercy." The officers and soldiers swarmed forward, most of them ran towards Hua Xiangyang, and eight or nine others rushed towards the carriage. In an instant, more than a dozen spears surrounded Hua Xiangyang, and stabbed Hua Xiangyang at the same time. He spun in the air, kicked down three or five of them, and then quickly fell down. He stepped on the remaining spears with his feet. At this time, the officers and soldiers holding sharp blades slashed at Hua Xiangyang. The man's knife was knocked several feet away, and at the same time, a roundhouse kick knocked down all the officers and soldiers whose spears were under his feet. The five or six officers and soldiers who rushed to the carriage had already captured Hua Rong's wife and child. Wang was holding the child. Very frightened, one of the officers and soldiers raised his knife to chop at Wang. At this time, Hua Xiangyang was dragged by You Xin again. At this critical moment, Hua Xiangyang used enough strength to throw the meteor hammer and its handle. , It was really like a meteor crossing the sky. The mace hit the officer and soldier holding the sword in the face. The officer and soldier's brains burst instantly, and they twitched and collapsed to the ground. Hua Xiangyang was throwing the meteor hammer, and You Xin's sword was already aimed at him. When the blow came, Hua Xiangyang instinctively dodged to the right, but was still hit in the left shoulder. You Xin held the knife with both hands and pressed down with all his strength. Hua Xiangyang grabbed the back of the knife with his right hand. The two were in a stalemate. During this period, another An officer and soldier had already raised a knife and stabbed Wang in the chest. Unfortunately, Wang didn't say a word. He just stared at Hua Xiangyang and died. Hua Xiangyang shouted for his sister-in-law, and then roared, that is the Lengyue knife. How sharp, the knife had already penetrated into the bone. Hua Xiangyang used all his strength with his right hand, pulled out the knife on his shoulder, and kicked You Xin in the chest. The force of this kick was extraordinary. You Xin felt a sweetness in his throat and a mouthful of blood. He spat it out. Hua Xiangyang took three steps at a time and ran towards the carriage. At the same time, the officers and soldiers raised their swords to chop at the baby. Hua Xiangyang jumped into the air and rushed forward. He held the knife with his hand and blood flowed instantly. Hua Xiangyang raised his sandbag-like left fist and swung it at the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers were like reeds in the wind, flipping twice in the air and falling to the ground. Immediately afterwards, Hua Xiangyang knocked down the remaining officers and soldiers with three punches and two kicks. He tore off his coat and wrapped the child around his body. He snatched the horse and ran eastward.
?
? The flowers were running towards the sun. It was already dawn. I don’t know how many miles they had traveled. I could only faintly hear a cock crowing ahead. Looking up, there seemed to be dots of light behind the mountains to the east. He used his last bit of strength to run forward. As they walked closer, a thatched hut came into view. Hua Xiangyang fell to the ground with the sound of a horse's cry, and in a daze, he heard a woman's painful howl. The man in the house heard a movement outside the house, so he walked out and saw Hua Xiangyang, covered in blood, lying on the ground with a crying baby in his arms. Then he carried him into the house, poured a bowl of water, and gave it to Hua Xiangyang. Hua Xiangyang opened his eyes slightly, his lips seemed to be stuck together, and said weakly: "Brother, officers and soldiers They're chasing me," he said before fainting again. The man immediately understood, tore off the skirt of his clothes, bandaged it briefly, then carried Hua Xiangyang into the stable, and covered Hua Xiangyang with grass. Then he returned to the front yard, took off the saddle, and led the horse into the stable. stable. When he returned to the house, he saw the crying baby on the table, and the man suddenly panicked. "What can we do? This child keeps crying, fearing that something big will happen.
"Ah, ah, it hurts me so much, it hurts so much!" "The wife who was giving birth in the back room cried hoarsely. At this time, the sound of impatient horse hooves could be heard outside the house. The man had an idea and took the child to the midwife. "Sister-in-law, hide this child under my wife's quilt. Come on, hurry up! "
"Come on, surround this hut for me. Hua Xiangyang is seriously injured and has a child with him. He will not be far away. "The man heard the sound, walked out, and asked with a smile on his face: "Oh, Master Jun, my family are all farmers who have done their duty. I don't know where I offended Master Jun. You Xin covered his chest and said, "Young lady's nonsense, let me ask you, did you see a man riding a horse, covered in blood, with a baby in his arms?" The man replied: "Master Jun, in this place with no village in front and no store in back, and where you don't see a few people a year, where are the men on horseback coming from?" You Xin glared at the man, "Come here, search for me!" "The officers and soldiers searched the hut inside and outside, wishing they could dig three feet into the ground, but there was no trace of Hua Xiangyang. You Xin searched the front room and saw that the doors and windows of the back room were closed, so he picked up his knife and walked straight in. The man strode forward and blocked You Xin, "Master Jun, your bitch wife is giving birth. I'm afraid she will defile you, so you must not enter. You Xin shouted: "Get away!" "After saying this, he slapped the man with his hand. The man fell to the ground. You Xin kicked the door open and was so shocked that the midwife dropped the basin in her hand. The man's wife howled in pain. You Xin looked around the room and thought that the man was indeed not lying, so he turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly a baby's cry pulled You Xin's right foot back, and he looked at it fiercely. The mother said, "Damn, this baby is crying before it's even born." She reached out and lifted the quilt of the mother, "Where did this baby come from? Fortunately, the man reacted very quickly and opened his mouth to reply, "Master Jun, my wife is pregnant with twins. She gave birth to one, and there is another one in her belly." How could You Xin be so gullible? He turned around and asked the midwife, "Are they really twins?" The midwife was already scared out of her mind. At this time, the man winked at the midwife, and the midwife replied tremblingly, "Yes, indeed... they are indeed twins." You Xin turned to the man again and said, "Damn you, you have a good talent. You can make two at once." " Then he laughed loudly, and all the officers and soldiers also laughed.
? "Boy, if there is any suspicion, report it to Yingtian Mansion immediately. If you dare to hide it, you will have no descendants. "Absolutely, sir, don't worry. Even if the villain has a hundred courages, he won't dare." "After the man finished speaking, You Xin led everyone to disperse, and the man breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was October in the crisp autumn weather, the man's back was already soaked with sweat. The man stretched out his sleeves to wipe the sweat on his forehead. He strode to the stable, opened up the hay, carried Hua Xiangyang to the front room and lay down, fed him a few mouthfuls of rice soup, and then went to the back room to visit his wife and child, "Congratulations, brother, my sister-in-law has given birth. A girl. "The midwife was trembling with fear, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over her body. The man said with a smile, "Thank you, dear sister, please accept these small coins to feel happy. "The midwife stretched out her hands tremblingly to take it, and said repeatedly, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. "He turned around and was about to leave. Just as he was about to cross the threshold, he was stopped by the man, "Sister, what happened today is known to God and earth. You know it and I know it. If even a few words are leaked, you and I can't stand it. We just walked around in circles. The midwife's face turned pale with fear again, "No... I don't dare, I don't dare." " He took small steps and walked out quickly, and disappeared after a while.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the red sun was high in the sky. "Guilan , I will go to the mountain to collect some herbs to replenish your body and heal that brother. I will be back soon. "Huichun, be careful, go early and come back early." "After saying that, the man walked up the mountain with the basket on his back.
? Besides, You Xin led everyone back to Yingtian Mansion. The surname of Yin in Yingtian Mansion was Zhang Wanlin. This person He was the nephew of Tong Guan, the Privy Councilor at that time. With his uncle, he was a popular figure around Huizong, and he could be said to dominate the world in Yingtian Mansion. "Reporting to your lord, I was ordered to capture Hua Rong's family, but unexpectedly, Hua Rong appeared on the way. The younger brother of Hua Rong was a man with big muscles and a strong waist. He fought hard for dozens of rounds with this guy, but he finally escaped. During this period, Hua Rong's wife died unexpectedly, and his son was taken away by Hua Xiangyang. ""What? Hua Rong’s wife is dead? I said to capture her alive, who told you to kill her! "My lord, in a desperate situation, the soldier accidentally killed that...that woman."
"Trash, a bunch of trash. What did that woman say before she died, or did she leave any tokens?" "My lord, it seems that there is no... no." "Idiot," after saying this, Zhang Fuyin slapped You Xin in the face. With a crisp sound, You Xin's face seemed to be sprinkled with flour and then coated with chili pepper. You Xin knelt down with a plop. He fell to the ground and said, "Sir, my incompetence in doing things is really hateful. I hope you will give me another chance and I will definitely capture Hua Xiangyang and the child." "Do you know where that guy fled to?" "My lord, that guy is heading north, probably toward Xuzhou." "Notify the Xuzhou government immediately and be sure to capture him!" ”
? The man was collecting herbs in the mountains with a bamboo basket on his back. Unknowingly, it was already halfway through the day. When he returned home, he found that Hua Xiangyang was still in a coma. So the man went After visiting his wife and children, he took the herbal medicine and boiled it. When the medicine was boiled, he was ready to take it for Hua Xiangyang. Just as he was about to help Hua Xiangyang, he moved his left middle finger slightly and slowly opened his eyes, "Where is this?" Where is the wind? "The chapped lips seemed to be smeared with mud. "Don't panic, strong man. It's safe here and the child is fine. My wife is breastfeeding him. Just rest in peace and recuperate. "In that case, it was my little brother who saved me and accepted my respect." "After saying this, he stood up to thank him, but his physical strength had not yet been restored and it was really difficult to support him. The man stepped forward to support Hua Xiangyang and said, "A strong man does not need to be polite. It is fate that you and I met. You were seriously injured and were chased by officers and soldiers. I How can you sit back and ignore it? Come on, take this herbal medicine first, and then you can heal your wounds with peace of mind. "Hua Xiangyang was greatly moved and couldn't help but feel his eyes moistened. "My brother is so righteous and I won't thank you for your kindness. Hua Xiangyang will definitely repay him with grass in his mouth in the future. "
After lunch, the man held Hua Rufeng in front of Hua Xiangyang and said: "The son of a strong man, with clear features and beautiful eyes, is very cute. Hua Xiangyang frowned and said sadly, "To be honest, little brother, this is not my son, but my nephew. Her parents are no longer alive, and she is afraid that she will follow me around and live in exile." "Hey, I didn't expect that such a young child would have such a miserable life experience." "As soon as he finished speaking, a baby cried, and Hua Xiangyang was very surprised. "Oh, do you think there are children at home? "Yes, my wife gave birth to a baby girl just last night. It may be God's will. It happens that my wife has milk, which can ensure that the young master is safe." Hua Xiangyang burst into tears with gratitude and asked, "Thank you for your great kindness. I don't know my little brother's name yet." "I am originally a herbalist in the countryside. My surname is Bai and my given name is Shouren. I make a living by collecting herbs." "It's true that a person lives up to his name. My surname is Hua and my name is Xiangyang. From now on, how about we treat each other as brothers?" "Hua Xiangyang is in his early thirties, and Bai Shouren is in his early twenties. Hua Xiangyang is his brother.
In the blink of an eye, more than three days later, Hua Xiangyang has mostly recovered and can get out of bed and walk. Bai Shouren Came to visit, "How is your brother recovering from his injury?" "Thanks to my dear brother's herbal medicine and careful care, everything is fine. I have been nagging my dear brother for many days, but why can't I see my sister-in-law?" "I'm sorry to worry about you. My wife's childbirth has greatly affected her vitality. She also has a child to take care of, so we haven't seen each other. I wonder if I can take my brother to meet my wife and my daughter today?" "Very good, very good," so the two of them walked towards the gift. "Brother, this is my wife Yang Guilan." Guilan stood up and saw Hua Xiangyang. Hua Xiangyang returned the gift and said, "My brothers and sisters have worked hard to take care of Feng'er. I don't know how to repay them. I want Feng'er to recognize you two as foster fathers. How about foster mothers?" Guilan smiled and said, "This child is very cute. It is a blessing for Shouren and I to be able to adopt him as our adopted son." When Bai Shouren saw it, he said, "In that case, why don't we get married and marry each other, and let the two children get married when they grow up?" Hua Xiangyang was overjoyed and said, "What my second brother said is exactly what I want. I wonder what my younger brother and sister think?" Guilan said: "This is naturally excellent." "
? Bai Shouren cooked the food himself, mostly game from the mountains, and the home-brewed rice wine was even more fragrant. During the dinner, Bai Shouren said: "Thanks to the eldest brother for your promotion, we have decided. Regarding the marriage between the younger daughter and Feng'er, the younger daughter hasn't given a name yet, so I need help from my elder brother. "Brother, you really praise me too much. I'm such a rough person, how can I name my daughter's family? I'm really ashamed of myself." "Hua Xiangyang knew that he was not very talented and learned a lot, so he refused again and again, but he really couldn't resist Bai Shouren, and he had no choice but to refuse his kindness, so he racked his brains, thought hard, and said to himself: "Oh, Bai and my nephew Hua Rufeng have made an engagement. . The flowers are like the wind, white...white...white like snow, white like snow! Do you think it's as white as snow? "White as snow, flowers like wind, wind and flowers like snow, what a good name!" Brother,” “Hahaha.
"The two couldn't stop laughing. Hua Xiangyang also spent his whole life's talent to come up with this name. The two drank and drank until late at night, both of them were in a daze. Bai Shouren asked Hua Xiangyang about the pursuit by the officers and soldiers. Hua Xiangyang , couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart, and told Hua Rufeng's life experience in detail, but when it came to the pursuit of the officers and soldiers, he dismissed it hastily, saying that it was because of Hua Rong's involvement that the officers and soldiers were killed. But Bai Shouren was dumbfounded when he heard this. He said that when he was a child, he knew the story of the hero of Liangshan in Shuipo. If he had been born ten or eight years earlier, he would have gone to Liangshan to join the army. He didn't expect that the hero of Liangshan, Xiao Li Guanghuarong, would be married today. His younger brother was sitting in front of him, really surprised. Hua Xiangyang was afraid that Bai Shouren would continue to ask about the officers and soldiers' pursuit, so he pretended to be drunk and fell asleep. "Brother, you are drunk, why are you so drunk? Get up and drink... drink." ……drink. ”
