Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

This Dongyang main store is worthy of being a big store in Bianliang, Tokyo, and there are young ladies who accompany the guests to drink and have fun. As long as the guest officials are willing to spend money, these girls will also accompany the guests to bed.

Ximenqing had Yulan by his side, so naturally he didn't need these beautiful girls to accompany him.

"Money Leopard" Tang Long was not polite tonight, and chose the most plump girl to accompany him.Everyone was drinking, but this guy held an empty wine glass and put it straight to his mouth. He didn't realize that the glass was empty, and his eyes never left the full breasts of the girl beside him.

Seeing Tang Long's impatience, scratching his ears and cheeks, Ximen Qing secretly laughed in his heart, maybe this guy is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking, but cares about the "landscape"!

Not only Tang Long, Ximen Qing recruited two young ladies for Jiao Ting and Brother Qiao Yun.

My brother is "faceless" Jiao Ting, when has he not fought forward bravely when fighting with others? Brother, I can't treat such a good brother badly!

Brother Yun is the confidant of my high official Ximen, the future general under his command.Naturally, I, a senior official from Ximen, will speed up his training!

How to conquer the beautiful little lady beside him tonight is a new training for me as a senior official.

Everyone was beauties in their arms, so they drank a few more glasses.After getting drunk, Ximen Qing took Yulan back to his room.Tang Long and the others were also helped away by the little ladies around them, and they all returned to their gentle hometown.

That night, in the Gaoyangzheng store, there was a slow and slow singing, and the singing was endless...

The next day, after Ximen Qing and others woke up, they decided to visit Tang Long's uncle and cousin, "Golden Gunner" Xu Ning.

Ximenqing left Yulan at Dongyang Zhengdian, and asked Jiao Ting and Brother Qiao Yun to accompany her for a walk in the nearby streets.On the other hand, he and Tang Long left No. [-] Tianshui Street and walked towards the gate.

Tang Long used to visit his aunt's house in Tokyo with his father, so he remembered the way to Xu Ning's house. The "Golden Gunner" Xu Ning lived in the fifth house on the east side of Banmen.

The two walked all the way, and soon entered the class.

Tang Long went straight to the door of the fifth black corner on the east side of the door and knocked on the door.Knocked a few times, but no one answered the door.

Seeing this, Tang Long turned to the neighbor and asked, "Brother, do you know that Teacher Xu is at home?"

The neighbor replied: "Teacher Xu didn't come back until evening, and he went to follow the class inside at five o'clock."

Tang Long asked again: "I remember Teacher Xu has already married a wife, why is his wife not at home?"

The neighbor replied: "Perhaps his wife took her child to the temple to burn incense. I'm afraid she won't return until evening. Brother, you might as well go back and come back later."

Tang Long heard the neighbor's words, thanked him, and came back to celebrate with Ximen.

Ximen Qing was not in a hurry, and took Tang Long out of the class, wandering around this Tokyo city, familiarizing himself with the geography.

After wandering around Daxiangguo Temple for half a day, Ximen Qing and Tang Long went to Granny Cao's meat pie shop to eat her special meat pie.Seeing that it was getting late, Tang Long led Ximen Qing to the door of the class again.

After entering the classroom, Tang Long found another neighbor and asked, "Is Teacher Xu coming back?"

The man replied: "I just saw Teacher Xu returning home with a golden gun in his hand."

Tang Long heard that Xu Ning was back, and immediately took Ximen Qing to Xu Ning's house.

Tang Long grabbed the door knocker and knocked on the door a few times, then he heard a lady's voice inside the door asking, "Who is knocking?"

Immediately afterwards, the black corner door was opened.A servant girl appeared by the door and poked her head out of the door.

Seeing this, Tang Long said to the little girl: "Tang Long, the son of Tang Zhizhai in Lower Yan'an Prefecture, is here to pay a visit to my aunt's elder brother Xu Ning, Teacher Xu."

"Wait a while, I'll report back to my master." The little maid walked into the courtyard with the door open.

Chapter 94 First Meeting with Xu Ning

Xu Ning heard from the servant girl that Tang Long, the son of Tang Zhizhai in Yan'an Prefecture, was visiting, so he hurriedly asked him to come in to meet him.

Tang Long and Ximen Qing entered Xu Ning's house and met Xu Ning.Tang Longna bowed his head and said in his mouth: "Brother has always been happy?"

Xu Ning saw that besides Tang Long, there was another person who came in. The person who came was handsome and energetic, and he was absolutely extraordinary.When did my brother know such a character?

Xu Ning was puzzled, and quickly replied: "Good brother, long time no see! I heard that my uncle has passed away. One is tied to an official body, and the other is that the journey is far away. I can't come to ask questions. I don't know the brother's information. Where is the brother all the time?" Where did you come from this time? I don’t know who is the man who came with you, brother?”

Seeing Xu Ning's question, Tang Long said to him: "I can't say enough! Ever since my father died, my brother and I have been greedy for gambling, lost our fortune, and lived in the rivers and lakes. I am lucky to have my Ximen My brother did not give up, and invited me to Yanggu County, Shandong Province, to be in charge of the blacksmith workshop in his village. Only then did my brother have a place to live and live. My brother’s surname is Ximen, and his single name is Qing, which is from Yanggu County, Shandong Province. The richest man, everyone in the whole county respects my brother Ximen. My brother Ximen is both civil and military, and he likes to make friends with heroes. He heard that his brother is a hero, so he and his brother came to the capital from Shandong to visit him.”

At this time, Ximen Qing also clasped his fists to Xu Ning and said: "I met Teacher Xu in Ximenqing, Yanggu, Xiashan! I have admired Teacher Xu's name for a long time, and my cousin, Yanggui, brought me to visit. When we met today, Teacher Xu really He is a hero who is not born in the world! Meeting with the teacher will give me comfort for the rest of my life."

Xu Ning hastily returned the salute and said: "The high officials of Ximen have praised me so much, I am ashamed. My brother has always been taken care of by the high officials of Ximen, and I am very grateful!"

Xu Ning asked Ximen Qing and Tang Long to sit down for a while, and asked the servants to arrange wine and food for each other.

Tang Long took out two gold ingots of garlic strips, weighing 20 taels, and gave them to Xu Ning, saying: "On the day my father died, I left these things and sent them to my brother as a memorial. Because no one has a confidant, I never brought them here. This time, my brother specially went to the capital to pay back my brother.”

Xu Ning said: "Thank you for your uncle's concern, and I have never been half filial. How can I repay you?"

Tang Long said: "Brother, Hugh said that. When my late father was in Japan, I often missed my brother's martial arts. I only hated that the mountains and rivers are far away, and I can't meet each other, so I left these things with my brother as a memory."

Xu Ning listened, thanked Tang Long, and accepted the gold.

Ximen Qing took out another good Persian knife from the package and gave it to Xu Ning.

Xu Ning saw that the Persian short knife was extremely sharp, and the handle was inlaid with gemstones, so he knew that this knife was very valuable.He couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept this expensive gift from Ximen Qing, and he had a lot of good feelings for this high official Ximen in his heart.

The two maids set up the food and drink, Xu Ning invited Tang Long and Ximen Qing to sit down, and invited his wife out to meet Tang Long and Ximen Qing.

Xu Ning had a young child who was only three years old. His wife had to take care of the youngest child, so she went upstairs after exchanging pleasantries with the two of them.Xu Ning accompanies Tang Long and Ximen Qing to drink and talk.

Xu Ning first talked to Tang Long about the death of his parents, and had a few glasses of sad wine together. Ximen Qing accompanied the two cousins ​​to feel sad.

Then, in front of Xu Ning, Tang Long greatly praised Ximen Qing's elder brother for his wisdom, courage, and spirit. Zhen Jingshi.

Xu Ning received a great gift from Ximen Qing, and saw that the official Ximen Qing was a good-looking person, so he had a good impression of the official Ximen Qing.When Tang Long talked about his pride, he was very happy.Therefore, he let go of his arms and chatted heartily with this senior official from Ximen.

Ximen Qing is a college student from modern times, and he has integrated the memories of his predecessors as a local tyrant. His knowledge is far beyond Xu Ning, the teacher of the golden gun class.Even Zhao Huizong, the current official of the Great Song Dynasty, and Cai Jing, the prime minister, are nothing more than two big bumpkins in front of Ximenqing in terms of knowledge.

Ximen Qing chatted with Xu Ning, and Xu Ning was shocked by many novel insights, and almost wanted to recognize Ximen Qing as his teacher.When talking about martial arts with Ximen Qing, Ximen Qing can also speak clearly about fists, feet, spears, sticks, and sword skills on horseback.

After a long talk, Ximen Qing was completely impressed by the "Golden Gunner" Xu Ning.The two had cups and cups, and their relationship was harmonious. They hated seeing each other too late, so they changed their address to brothers.

Seeing that the fire had arrived and the night was dark, Ximen Qing bid farewell to Xu Ning and left Xu Ning's house with Tang Long.

Ximenqing and Xu Ning agreed that they would meet Xu Ning at the famous Fan Tower tomorrow after Xu Ning was on duty.

Ximen Qing thought to himself, for a talent like the "Golden Gunner" Xu Ning who is outstanding in martial arts and has a serious military position in the court, he should simmer slowly and draw pictures slowly.One day, this Xu Ning will be used by my Ximen official.

After leaving the class, walking on the night market street in Tokyo, Tang Long asked Ximen Qing why he didn't ask Xu Ning to borrow his precious armor today?

One of the most important purposes of Tang Long's trip to Bianliang, Tokyo was to carefully observe the Yanling chain mail passed down by Xu Ning's family, draw a pattern, and imitate it after returning to Yanggu County.So, he was a little restless.

"Golden Gunner" Xu Ning's family handed down a pair of goose feather chain mail, which is light and stable to wear on the body, invulnerable to knives, guns and arrows, and is the most precious item for the generals in battle.

This armor is also called Sai Tangyi. From this name, we can see the contentment in Xu Ning's heart.You know, the unparalleled fierce general Lu Bu in the Three Kingdoms period was wearing Tang Yijia.Xu Ning's armor is called Sai Tangyi, which means it is better than Lu Bu's armor.

Ximen Qing also wanted to see the magic of Xu Ning's family heirloom armor, but he didn't think there was any need to rush it for a while.Ximen Qing intends to stay in Bianliang, Tokyo for a while longer, but it doesn't hurt to observe Xu Ning's armor in a few days.
