Chapter 50: The War in the North

The next day, Steward Xiao came uninvited. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info actually heard that Sun Yuanqing and Qin Shan had entered the back mountain and made a windfall, so they couldn't wait to come here to find out the reason for the matter, so it was good to report the details to Sun Hao.

Qin Shan also pretended to be a naïve girl, and said that the matter was rough.

Steward Xiao couldn't help but pat his thighs, envious, jealous and hateful! Such a good thing, how come I haven't encountered it once, it's like a treasure in the sky!

Qin Shan pretended to be dependent, and said coquettishly to Steward Xiao: "Uncle, I have never seen so much money!" It was not easy for my parents to raise me, and in order to send me here to study, my family borrowed a lot of silver. I'd like to take a few days off, go home, and send some money back! Honor your parents! ”

"Good boy! What a good boy of filial piety! But here, if you want to learn more knowledge, you need silver, but you have to plan for yourself! Steward Xiao said lovingly.

"Thank you, uncle, I understand this, the family doesn't need too much silver, send some back, pay off the debts owed by the family, and improve the life of the family!" Qin Shan blinked and flickered.

Shopkeeper Xiao got the news he wanted from Qin Shan, and he also felt that Qin Shan was a good girl with filial piety, so he immediately slapped his chest with a "bang", took Qin Shan, found the person in charge, and arranged a few days of vacation for Qin Shan.

Qin Shan got the holiday, trot all the way, and came to Tianyuan Town.

After wandering the road carefully for a while, he made sure that there were no eyes behind him, and went straight to the post station. Because there are good carriages there. Ten taels of silver bought an ordinary carriage, which was simple in appearance, spacious in the car, and strong in horse.

I went to the cloth shop again and bought a set of clothes for a horse boy. On the way back, don't forget to buy some cooked beef and fruit cake to eat on the way. Threw in the storage ring. Qin Shan also found out that the food put in the storage ring would not rot and deteriorate. The spirit meat a few days ago, as well as the food that I originally wanted to bring to Zhao Wanru, are still in good place, very fresh. I guess it's because there's a vacuum inside the ring!

Back at the post station, she couldn't wait to change her clothes, and the appearance of a fat and humble pony boy made Qin Shan very satisfied. I didn't forget to bring enough water and still threw it into the storage ring. Grab the map, whip it up, and ride away.

Along the way, Qin Shan was very excited! Finally, I can gallop freely in this world! That great freedom made Qin Shan's nervous and worried mood a lot easier.

Qin Shan is not afraid of the night, and the special forces often carry out training and tasks in the early morning. Survival in the wilderness is day and night! But you can not rest yourself, but the horses cannot.

Seeing that it was getting dark, I happened to pass by a small town, and I found a small inn and opened a third-class room.

After settling down in the accommodation, he gave Xiao Er silver, beckoned to feed the horses with good food and materials, walked out of the inn, found a lively restaurant, asked for a side dish, a bowl of noodles, and ate it.

"You know what? The North has rebelled! ”

"Really? Didn't you say a natural disaster? How can it be a rebellion?"

"Where is there any natural disaster, it is the collusion of officials in the north, I heard that there seems to be a person named Jing Kangping, self-proclaimed Emperor Yong, ten provinces in the north, not a single soldier has been moved, and they have all been surrendered."

"No, it won't! I haven't heard that the emperor sent troops to fight! ”

"The emperor is probably still in the dark! I heard that Emperor Yongdi is a god! can fly to the sky, have powerful skills, and can pinch and calculate. Who is sincere and who is hypocritically obedient, Emperor Yong can know at a glance. Many officials pretended to be obedient, but they secretly handed over the concert, and all of them were intercepted, and the whole family would be wiped out within half a day. ”

"Where did you get this news? How do you know so clearly? ”

"Don't hide it from everyone, I am a northerner, I came here to do business, and the letter came from relatives and friends in my hometown! Absolutely not! ”

In the restaurant, the diners gossiped and boasted.

When Qin Shan heard this, her heart was very heavy. First, his father and the Nine Princes were sent to the north by the emperor to understand the situation, if it was really a coup d'état, this road must be extremely dangerous. Second, his identity as a special soldier is very sensitive to the political situation and war, Qin Shan seems to smell the breath of conspiracy and the tragedy of flowing blood.

The food is tasteless at the moment, although I know that most of the gossip in this market is bragged about by boring people, and it is unbelievable. But there is nothing to say, and the news and rumors will have some basis after all.

Out of the restaurant, see the night road is still lively, people come and go, peddlers and pawns, play and sing juggling, business contacts, in general, this country is still a country and the people, although ordinary people are not rich, but also have food and clothing, the social style is simple, can also be called a prosperous age.

If there is really a war in the north, I am afraid that it will be the labor of soldiers and horses, and how many hot-blooded heroes will spill blood on the battlefield! How many happy and beautiful families will be shattered, and how many people will starve to death and freeze to death due to the rising prices and lack of food caused by the war!

Qin Shan knew that if this happened, he would not be able to stop it at all.

Fortunately, Qin Shan is not a person who drills the horns of the bull, and it is meaningless for mediocrity to disturb himself. Letting go of the burden in his heart, calculating the distance between Sun Yuanqing's adoptive father and adoptive mother's house, the next day, before dawn, Qin Shan started the trip again.

The road was safe, and at dusk, he came to the mountain forest where Sun Yuanqing grew up, because Sun Yuanqing's introduction was very detailed, and Qin Shan was an expert in searching and searching, and it took almost no effort to find Sun Yuanqing's home.

The house is short and dilapidated, made of wood and stone, rough and simple, with yellow mud mixed with straw to make the wall, and the two rooms add up to less than 50 square meters. Sun Yuanqing's adoptive father and adoptive mother looked very old, originally in their 40s, but they were as haggard as an elderly man. In particular, his adoptive father often went into the mountains to hunt, with new and old injuries, and he became ill from overwork, coughing from time to time.

The two old men learned that Qin Shan was Sun Yuanqing's junior sister, and they specially looked for themselves, and their eyes brightened a little. Happy as if seeing his own child, hurriedly lit a fire to cook. But there was really nothing good at home, and when it was on the table, it was only the gruel that was thickened, and the bacon was stewed with wild vegetables, and the two old men greeted Qin Shan crampedly, and picked the only bacon into Qin Shan's bowl.

Qin Shan also took out the beef and pastries she brought, which was regarded as adding dishes.

Qin Shan felt this simple love, eating and eating, and couldn't help crying. One is pitiful for the simple couple who have missed their son for several years, and the other is envious of a warm and harmonious home! And the two old men couldn't help but miss their children, and secretly wiped their tears with their sleeves.

After eating, Qin Shancai told the two loving old men about Sun Yuanqing's experience after leaving. Qin Shan spoke very slowly, trying to tell everything she knew.
