Liang Qu stopped rowing and waited for the newcomer. When he got closer, he found that the newcomer was standing on an extremely narrow canoe, which was quite similar to a single-person rowing boat, but slightly wider, and there were things like fishing rods hanging on the side. But these are not the main points. The main point is that the other party can quickly approach him without rowing! He is a master! Liang Qu was awed and alert. Ordinary people don’t have his means of controlling water. He can move without wind, which must be some kind of strange power. It’s also true. He should have noticed when he was called - the sound of ordinary people in open areas can only be heard for a hundred meters at most. Previously, the other party was at least a mile away from him, but the sound was extremely clear. With Liang Qu’s current strength, his means are a little worse, but fortunately his foundation is strong enough, and he can be about equal to the martial artist who just entered the running horse, but on the river, the running horse’s great perfection is not a bad thing to try. The visitor was about thirty years old, between young and middle-aged, and was wearing a gray coat embroidered with golden patterns. But warriors cannot simply judge age from appearance. Some people look young but may be in their early fifties.
When they came to Liang Qu, Xu Yuelong bowed his hands: "Little brother, do you know which direction Pingyang County is? How far is it?" "That way, about twelve miles away." Liang Qu pointed with his hand. "Thank you for showing me the way, little brother." Xu Yuelong bowed his hands and was about to leave. He accidentally looked at Liang Qu twice more, with surprise in his eyes. Then he looked up and down carefully and saw that his boat was full of fishing gear. He was quite curious, "Little brother, are you a fisherman? You have good kung fu? You are a warrior and still come out to fish? You should be able to find other better jobs, right?" Liang Qu became more alert. The other party could actually tell at a glance that he had practiced martial arts. He thought that his level of Qi Condensation was still good, and unless he was at the Wolf Smoke Realm, he should not be able to easily see his background. Great master! Unexpectedly, the other party's subsequent performance made Liang Qu puzzled. After Xu Yuelong finished his own analysis, he kept nodding his head and sailed around the boat: "A warrior who was born as a fisherman, not bad." He got off the building ship and went fishing alone in a small boat. He was so engrossed in fishing that when he reacted, the fleet had disappeared. Xu Yuelong did not have a map with him, so he could only sail alone in the direction he remembered. It took him a long time to see a figure. He wanted to ask for directions, but it was such a coincidence that he met a good seedling. He was so young and a fisherman. His blood and qi were not bad. He was naturally a good material for a river official! He was just worried that he did not have enough manpower under his command, and the locals in front of him were perfect. Xu Yuelong made an invitation: "Are you interested in coming to the river and lake office? Start as a minor official. After working for a few more years, you may be able to get a river chief, which is a formal official position." River and lake office? ! Is it such a coincidence? Liang Qu was quite surprised: "May I ask who you are, sir?"
"Xu Yuelong, the new deputy leader of the Hebo Office of Pingyang County." Xu Yuelong lifted up a corner of his clothes, revealing a waist badge with a big Xu character on it. My boss? Liang Qu was confused. Calculating the date, the officials of the Hebo Office should indeed arrive in the next two days. But he didn't know why it was so coincidental that he ran into him when he went out! Are the people of the Hebo Office so stylish, floating on the river with a small boat? Liang Qu quickly bowed and took out a waist badge of Hebo, which was similar in shape: "Liang Qu, the new Hebo of the Hebo Office, greets Lord Xu." Xu Yuelong glanced at the waist badge: "Liang Qu, disciple of Uncle Yang Dongxiong?" The other party's address to Master Yang was strange, but Liang Qu still nodded: "That's right." Xu Yuelong was very surprised. He came out today casually, and meeting Liang Qu was a coincidence. It's impossible to fake an identity to meet by chance! The fisherman in front of him was really Yang Dongxiong's disciple! Recalling the official report he had read before, Xu Yuelong was overjoyed: "You are the one who invented Pinyin. I wonder why warriors would come to fish for no reason. It seems that they are our own people." Liang Qu didn't quite understand. What is our own people? Seeing Liang Qu puzzled, Xu Yuelong explained: "My father is Guanying Bo Xu Wenzhu, and my grandfather is Wei Guogong Xu Youguang. Uncle Yang risked his life to save my father on the battlefield. Since I can remember, my father asked me to call him Uncle Yang. Later, Uncle Yang's second son died on the battlefield and wanted to retire and return home. It was also my father who agreed. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Uncle Yang to retire with his strength at that time." So that's it! Liang Qu suddenly realized. He knew that Master Yang had worked under General Xu Wenzhu before, but he didn't expect Master Yang to have such a glorious past, and he didn't expect that his boss would have such a connection with him. Good thing! Great good thing! His boss calls his master "uncle". If Liang Qu had such a strong relationship in his previous life, he would have risen to prominence long ago, and would not have become an overtime dog, coming and going at will. Xu Yuelong sighed: "What a pity." Liang Qu felt something was wrong. Why is there a twist? "Originally, I was supposed to be the main leader, but I never thought that someone would intervene and make me a deputy." "Originally?" Liang Qu smelled the smell of gunpowder.
Xu Yuelong sat in his boat, took out a fishing rod from the side, skillfully hung the bait, threw it into the river, and patted the boat, motioning Liang Qu to sit down and chat. Liang Qu sat at the bow of his black-sailed boat and listened to Xu Yuelong. "Do you think the Ghost Mother Sect can beat Dashun?" "Of course it's impossible. The Ghost Mother Sect is no match for the past. It can only survive by hiding in the water." "So this is a battle that must be won, is that right?" Liang Qu nodded and shook his head. "Oh? What do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?" "From the big trend, it is indeed a battle that must be won, but from the specific things, it is not necessarily the case. The Duke of Wei did not do his best, and the water was difficult to attack. On the one hand, the Ghost Mother Sect had three nails on the rotten boat. If it was really that easy to deal with, the court would not have set up Pingyang County, or even Pingyang Prefecture in the future." Xu Yuelong laughed: "You kid has some insights. Have you read books?" "I read for half a year." "Well, that's true, but it's true. In the end, the only party that could win this battle is Dashun, but who will take the credit for the victory? "
Liang Qu's thoughts raced through his mind: "Does everyone think that suppressing bandits is a lucrative job?"
Xu Yuelong nodded: "That's right, my father asked me to be the leader of the Hebo Office, just to get some credit, it should have been decided, but who knew that the Duke of Liang intervened and sent his grandson to be the chief leader, so I could only be the second in command."
Liang Qu was a little confused, he was studying in the academy, and he had some understanding of the court relationship of Dashun.
If I remember correctly, the Duke of Liang should not be as powerful as the Duke of Wei, right? The Duke of Wei was the Duke of Liang who was canonized at the beginning of the founding of the country, while the Duke of Liang was later awarded for his meritorious service, the gold content is completely different, Xu Yuelong was so easily pushed down?
"I guess you are wondering why I was so easily pushed down, right?"
Liang Qu nodded. "The reason is very simple, that is, my grandfather is more powerful than the Duke of Liang, and my grandfather's sons are also more powerful than the Duke of Liang's sons, so I can't compete with the Duke of Liang, do you understand?" Liang Qu thought about it and understood a little. This is how feelings work. If you are too powerful, you can't compete with those who are not so powerful. After all, the emperor is the master of the house. "If you want me to be the leader, you will feel comfortable, but unfortunately, the grandson of the Duke of Liang is not easy to deal with!"
