Chapter 295

On the river outside Jingzhou City, there was a fishing boat drifting with the current. Sitting on the bow was a handsome young man wearing a raincoat and holding a fishing rod in his hand.

Through the loose raincoat, the young man's inner clothes are exquisitely crafted, especially the white jade around his waist. The carvings are delicate and smooth, with rounded corners, and the whole body is as smooth as fat, with no trace of variegation visible.

Obviously, the young man has an extraordinary status. Indeed, the young man was none other than Liuloulou, the second son of the governor of Hexi Province.

Despite his noble status, there were no guards on the shore. There was only an old man sitting in the cabin of the fishing boat with a sword on his back. But for Liulou, an old man carrying a sword is enough.

It's not about having many soldiers, it's about being skilled. These were the words that impressed him the most since he was a child.

The fishing rod moved slightly, and Liulou quickly pulled up the fishing rod, which was quite difficult. He was instantly overjoyed, it looked like a big fish!

Skillfully operate the fishing rod and slide it in and out to wear down the strength of the big fish. He was not in a hurry, and spent his time beating the big fish in the water until the force on the fishing rod became less and less, and then he slowly lifted it out of the water.

It is indeed a big fish! The whole body is blue and white, the fish tail is still swinging, and it weighs eight or nine pounds at a rough glance.

"Young Master is very skilled!" The sword-carrying old man praised him without hesitation.

"Hahaha." Liuloulou also laughed proudly. I unhooked the fish, admired it for a few times, and then threw it back into the water.

The old man carrying a sword has long been used to it. The second son of the Liu family in front of him has always been a lecherous and unfashionable man. He treats others politely and behaves appropriately. His only hobby is fishing.

They don’t eat the fish they catch, they release them all. What you enjoy is just the process.

Just as I baited the fishhook, I heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance. The movements of Liuloulou's hand stopped, and he looked up following the sound, only to see a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi swinging his riding whip vigorously, with an anxious look on his face.

Stopping the horse on the shore, he saw Liu Loulou on the boat, so he simply used Qinggong to tread water and float up.

When he got to the boat, he didn't have time to stand still and catch his breath, so he hurriedly said: "My lord, my lord, something big has happened. Some of the barbarians who burned down the official warehouse have escaped from prison!"

What’s a big deal about jailbreaking? Liu Loulou and the old man carrying the sword both looked at the visitor with doubts on their faces and motioned for him to continue.

The visitor took a few deep breaths and told the story in detail and clearly. It is important to mention that there is a high probability that the barbarian is still alive.

"Whose information is it? Has it been verified?"

Liuloulou has a quick mind. The old man carrying the sword still looked puzzled, but he thought about the whole matter clearly. The puzzled expression on his face had long since disappeared, and was replaced by seriousness.

"The information about Wu Sheng's mother and the scholar has been verified by Chuzhou Prison. I don't dare to delay for even a moment. I will run back and report as soon as possible. It should not be too late."

"Okay!" Liuloulou clapped his hands with joy.

He ordered: "Uncle Zhou, get to the shore. I have to go to the barracks to have a detailed interview with my father. Hurry!"

The old man carrying the sword gathered his true energy, and the boat sailed like flying, reaching the shore in the blink of an eye. Before the boat could stop, Liulou ran out of the boat in a hurry, climbed onto the horse on the shore, and galloped towards Jingzhou City.

The old man carrying the sword and the man in Qingyi mobilized their true energy and opened the way ahead. Two people escorted him, and the journey was smooth, heading straight to the barracks in the north of the city.

"Second Young Master, dismount!" the patrol soldier raised his hand to stop. Liu Huanzhou has a rule that all visitors must dismount and walk, and his own son is no exception.

Throwing the whip to the soldiers, he asked anxiously: "Is the general here?"

"On the school grounds."

After getting the exact location, Liulou stopped replying and ran towards the school grounds. But he had no military position and could not enter the school grounds, so he had to ask the school captain to report.

After a while, Liu Huanzhou, wearing old iron armor and a scimitar at his waist, walked out, frowned and asked, "What's the big deal? You're so anxious."

"Dad, can you find a private place?" Liu Loulou asked.

"Come with me." Although Liu Huanzhou had doubts, he still led Liu Huanzhou to a room. After Li Jia sat down, he asked curiously: "Soldier training is very important in the army and cannot be delayed in the slightest. If you need anything, please tell me quickly!"

"Yes!" Liulou nodded.

He recounted the whole story and then expressed his thoughts, "Dad, we can secretly push for the Hu to be sent back to Beihu. In this way, the Hu will be on guard, and we will have reason to stalemate with the Hu. Confrontation, no war!”

Liu Huanzhou listened with a calm face. He was embarrassed to sit comfortably, with his feet spread to the left and right, one hand on the armrest of the chair, and the other on the handle of the knife. After thinking quietly for a long time, he nodded slightly and shouted: "Here, go and call Mr. Liu."

After a moment, Mr. Liu walked in briskly and saluted: "General, have Liu come here to discuss a major matter of sending troops?"

He raised his head and caught a glimpse of Liulou standing on the side. He bowed again and said apologetically: "Second Young Master, please forgive me. Someone's eyesight is poor and I didn't see Second Young Master."

"It's okay." Liu Huanzhou waved his hand, tilted his head to look at Liu Loulou, and said, "My son, tell Mr. Liu about the matter. Mr. Liu is very thoughtful and can analyze it."

Liulou nodded and spoke again. Mr. Liu pinched a few strands of white beard on his chin and couldn't help but nodded and said: "This is a good way. It will not follow the truth and it is not risky. The most important thing is that it can avoid fighting and delay us. !”

"It's just... is the news reliable? If it's the court's plan to lure the snake out of its hole, it won't be pretty."

Liu Huanzhou echoed, "This is exactly what I'm worried about! And the court keeps urging me, so I don't know if it can be done in time?"

"Five days! I only need five days! If there is no news within five days, father will send troops." Liu Cenglou, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

He raised his eyes and promised: "And there is no need to use father's people, I will deal with it myself. Even if it is a vicious plot of the court, it will never involve Hexi!"

Mr. Liu's face changed drastically when he heard this. How could this be said to be a break between father and son? He waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Second Master, the general did not mean that. The land of Hexi prospers together and suffers together, and we are all one body!"

"How can it be involved in anyone? This is such a ridiculous statement? Second Master, you are wrong."

But Liu Huanzhou was not angry, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. He looked at Liu Cenglou with satisfaction and praised: "Good! Good! Good! You are worthy of being my son, Liu Huanzhou! I agree! If this can be done, you can come to the army to serve."

Liu Cenglou's eyes were shocked, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Thank you, father, I will do it now."

"Go!"

Until Liu Cenglou's back disappeared outside the door, Mr. Liu asked doubtfully: "Old Liu, they are still young, isn't it too fast?"

Liu Huanzhou knew what he meant, pointed at the handle of the knife, shook his head and smiled: "Not young anymore! When we joined the army, we were only sixteen years old. At their age, I was promoted to a colonel by military merit."

He squinted his eyes slightly, as if he missed it a little. But he opened them again soon, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"It is said that a kind person cannot lead an army, but it is not only necessary to be ruthless to others, but also to yourself..."

"Let them be!"
