Chapter 18 Kidnapped a girl
On December 29, the seventh year of Xuanhe in the Song Dynasty, the New Year was approaching.
The snowflakes were still falling, and the sky became darker and darker, and dusk soon passed.
But for Kaifeng Prefecture, where the New Year is approaching, this is just the beginning of the most prosperous period of the day. During the day, it also seemed a bit dull because of the news that the Jin thieves and the palace changes that occurred on the 22nd. As the lights first came on, this might have been the most prosperous metropolis in the world at that time suddenly became noisy and chaotic. With the opening of Zhouqiao Night Market, Maxing Street Night Market, and night markets in Kaifeng Prefecture City, the entire city suddenly fell into an unreal carnival atmosphere.
It's indeed unreal!
All the troops are coming to the city, and the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. The Kaifeng city is still full of bright lights and wine, and it is full of wealth. Judging from this, it means that you will not cry until you see the coffin!
Zhao Kai had already put on a moon-white shirt, wearing a Dongpo towel, and looking like a scholar. He sat in a restaurant near Daxiangguo Temple, drinking tea constantly. He was still not used to drinking, so he used tea instead of wine and ran to the restaurant run by the monk to drink tea.
That’s right, this restaurant was run by monks from Daxiangguo Temple... It is famous for their meat and vegetables! Monks from Daxiangguo Temple in the Song Dynasty are good at roasting pork, and they also open restaurants, specializing in meat and vegetables. The monks from Kaifeng Prefecture of the Northern Song Dynasty really have a firm belief!
Of course, Zhao Kai did not come to Daxiangguo Temple to eat meat. In fact, he came to borrow money... to borrow money from the monks in Daxiangguo Temple!
The monks of Daxiangguo Temple in the Northern Song Dynasty not only opened restaurants to sell meat and vegetables, but also used the money from the Changsheng Bank (the bank that absorbs deposits from believers) to lend money to usury... Zhao Kai didn't think of this at first. It was not until Zhu Fengying, who was responsible for sorting out Zhao Kai's private property this morning that Pan Yulian told him that there was still a lot of real estate and land in his home and no one took care of him that he remembered that there was a good place like Daxiangguo Temple in Kaifeng Prefecture.
So he took Wang Xiaode, Qin Hui, Chen Ji, Huang Wuji and others to mortgage the house deeds and land deeds from the mansion to the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple. Of course, Prince Yun’s mansion cannot be entrusted. The palace is granted, and the property rights belong to the court. Zhao Kai only has the right to live and has no ownership rights. Otherwise, he would have issued it!
However, even if the royal palace could not be escorted, Zhao Kai still got 30,000 taels of gold from the monks of Daxiangguo Temple... In addition to the 3.3 million treasures raised by Zhao Kai from the warehouse and more than 300,000 in the royal palace account, Zhao Kai can be regarded as a huge sum of money on hand!
After getting the gold, Zhao Kai did not return home immediately, but asked Qin Hui, Wang Xiaode and a dozen guards to take Huang Jin back home. He and Chen Ji and Huang Wuji drank tea and meat together.
Tomorrow, the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Kai will lead his troops to leave Tokyo Bianliang. And he will leave early in the morning and will not go to the palace to say goodbye to Zhao Ji, nor will he say goodbye to his group of brothers and sisters... he will only leave quietly.
Although Zhao Kai is not familiar with his brothers - he has only been here for half a month and has not met any brothers and sisters except Zhao Huan, how can he be familiar with him? However, there is a brother and a girl, but he must meet him.
The brother who must meet is named Zhao Zhi, who is the twelfth son of Zhao Ji. He is eighteen years old this year and has been named King Xin. The girl is named Zhao Duofu, who is only fifteen years old this year. He is named Princess Roufu, and is still waiting to be named in the boudoir. Both of them are Zhao Kai's mother and her mother are the late Concubine Yisu.
Because they were born to a mother, the relationship between the brother and sister and Zhao Kai was very close and they were not in harmony with the crown prince Zhao Huan. Of course, Zhao Kai wanted to take the two away and leave Tokyo Bianliang, the city of the Song Dynasty, which was about to be surrounded by Jin thieves. In this way, after Zhao Kai arrived in Hebei, he could have two more helpers - yes, two! Zhao Zhi was both civil and military, and as long as he overcame hereditary cowardice, it would be of great use.
Zhao Duofu was very brave in Zhao Kai's impression. He was a troublemaker since he was a child. It would be useful to take him to Hebei... If Yue Fei had not married yet, he would just marry Zhao Duofu! With her protection, Qin Hui would definitely not dare to bully Yue Fei.
Just as he thought of marrying his girl to Yue Fei, Zhao Kai heard a girl calling from afar: "San Ge'er."
When Zhao Kai heard the sound, he looked up and saw a girl wearing white clothes standing pretty at the door of the box where Zhao Kai was, waving happily to him, her bright eyes and smiled like a flower, which was very charming.
The person who came was Zhao Kai's real sister, Zhao Duofu, the princess of Roufu.
Zhao Kai was of course happy when he saw the girl, and waved to her and said, "Duofu, come and sit here quickly. My brother has asked the monks of Daxiangguo Temple to stew your favorite Dongpo elbow."
Zhao Duofu frowned and looked very unhappy, "San brother said nonsense again, when did I like to eat big elbows? Also, the third brother didn't always call me small words, how could I call me so rich today?"
Your small letter is... Zhao Kai thought about it and remembered that this girl disliked the name "Duofu", so she especially liked to give nicknames, such as Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, Huanhuan, and Nianmei.
"My sister Nian, don't block the door, go in quickly... There are so many people here, so it's not good to ask people to recognize them."
Before Zhao Kai could think of what the girl was called, another voice came from outside the door, and then he saw a big white-clothed boy pulling Zhao Duofu into the box with him. The boy was also very handsome, about 1.8 meters tall, with a beautiful face and a star-like eyes. However, the expression on the big boy's face was so panicked that he couldn't help looking outside when he entered the door, as if someone was chasing him with a knife outside.
Needless to mention this big boy, Zhao Zhi, the king of the Song Dynasty, who was Zhao Kai's mother and his compatriots.
"Twelve Brother Don't panic," Zhao Kai said with a smile, "No one outside stares at you and Nian Mei's side."
Zhao Zhi turned his head to look at his third brother and asked softly: "How does the third brother know?"
"How could I not know?" Zhao Kai smiled, "A marriage commander from the Imperial City Department is still in my hand. As soon as you and Nian Mei go out, my people will be secretly protecting you. If someone keeps an eye on you, you should have passed away now!"
Zhao Kai is still referring to the Imperial City Division, but most of the relatives under the Imperial City Division did not listen to him. Only the two commands controlled by Huang Wuji and Wang Xiaode were still under the firm control of Zhao Kai, the Prince of Yun.
The combat effectiveness of these two commanders is stronger than the remaining nine commanders - the nine commanders are all Kaifeng office workers. Huang Wuji's command post is all heroes from the Western Army, and Wang Xiaode's command is all the heroes who are willing to be hawks and dogs under the command, so Zhao Kai still dares to leave Prince Yun's mansion in plain clothes.
Zhao Zhi frowned when he heard this - didn't he say no one followed him? Isn't your person considered a human?
"Sit down," Zhao Kai smiled at the two of you, "Eat more good wine and good dishes. After we finish eating, we will have to rush the farther we can go, and we may not be able to eat such authentic Kaifeng dishes in the future."
"Hurry the long road?" Zhao Zhi was stunned, "Third brother, you want to hurry the long road, not us want to go long road!"
Zhao Kai smiled and said, "We are going to Hebei together... we will leave tomorrow at Yin hour!"
"San Ge'er, what do you mean?"
"San Ge'er, does your father know?"
Zhao Zhi and Zhao Duofu both exclaimed. They had never thought of leaving Tokyo Kaifeng Prefecture, a good place like a paradise on earth.
