The Sixty-Third Reckoning (Part II)

Lu Yuanwailang welcomed the father and daughter of Huangfu Jingde into the Dingbei Marshal's Mansion under repair, and Huangfu saw that the craftsmen were not working at this time, and everyone was busy with their own work, so he asked with a smile: It's so late, why don't they finish work?

Lu Yuanwailang explained with a smile: Everyone heard that it was for the marshal to repair the house, and they were all very willing to put in the effort, and they came early and returned late every day, and everyone wanted to clean up as soon as possible, so that the marshal and the major general could live in their homes as soon as possible.

When the craftsman next to him heard Lu Yuanwailang's words, he immediately put down the work in his hand and shouted: Marshal Huangfu is here...... He didn't stop screaming, and all the craftsmen put down their work and knelt down to kowtow to Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter. All of them had relatives who were slaughtered by the Khura people.

Huangfu Jingde hurriedly raised his hand and shouted: Everyone please get up, protecting the territory and the people is the duty of my Dachen soldiers, there is no need to say thank you, everyone gets up early and is greedy for me Huangfu Jingde to repair the house, Huangfu Jingde is here to thank everyone. For many years, Huangfu Jingde, who has eaten and lived with ordinary soldiers, has no frame at all, and treats both dignitaries and ordinary people the same, which is also the reason why Huangfu Jingde is deeply popular.

Huangfu Jingde saw that the craftsmen still refused to get up, so he laughed loudly: If everyone doesn't get up again, Ben Shuai won't be able to visit his own house.

All the craftsmen never expected that the mighty Marshal Huangfu would be so approachable, and they all stood up with a smile and turned around and went about their own work. Everyone secretly decided that Marshal Huangfu was so good, and they had to show all their skills to build the Marshal's Mansion for Marshal Huangfu.

Lu Yuan Wailang accompanied Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter to see the house, and Huangfu Jingde only made one request, he asked Lu Yuan Wailang not to knock down a courtyard that was originally intended to be bulldozed and exercised, and asked him to carefully repair the courtyard here, and compare the specifications with the main courtyard. Although Lu Yuanwailang didn't understand why he was repairing like this, he didn't even fight for a moment.

Huangfu Yongning knew that it was a courtyard for her brother. He also said: Lord Lu, this courtyard must be exquisite, there is no need to plant any flowers and trees in the courtyard, just transport more fertile soil to level the land in the courtyard.

Lu Yuanwailang responded one by one, but he was puzzled in his heart, and secretly speculated: Could it be that the major general wants to be in such a place? Of course he didn't know. Huangfu Yongning heard her brother say that he likes to grow medicinal herbs, so he secretly kept his mind, since it is a yard prepared for her brother, of course, there must be a large piece of land for her brother to grow medicinal herbs. This is what her brother said, Huangfu Yongning would be so attentive, otherwise with Huangfu Yongning's temperament, she would not be so careful.

The three of them walked to a yard in the west that was cleaning up the backyard, looking at the empty backyard, Huangfu Jingde said: Lord Lu, here to dig a pond, lead a vein of living water, the pond does not have to be too deep, seven or eight feet deep, plant a few big trees by the pond, there is a cave, at least three zhang deep and one zhang high and three zhang wide, if it can be bigger, better.

Lu Yuanwailang wondered even more, and said in his heart that the requirements of the Huangfu Marshal and the Major General were so strange, the yard over there was not allowed to plant flowers and plants, and the fertile soil had to be transported to fill the yard, and the pond was dug to build a cave here, could this still be the Marshal's Mansion?

As soon as Huangfu Yongning heard that his father asked him to dig a pond and build a cave, he knew that these were all prepared for Ah Hei. Hei is a tiger, of course, he likes to live in caves, and he is a tiger who is particularly afraid of heat, and likes to spend time in the water every summer. Lord Lu, after repairing the mountain pond, sprinkle more grass seeds here. Huangfu Yongning chased another sentence that made Lu Yuanwailang wonder.

Puzzled, Lu Yuanwailang still carefully wrote down every request of Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter, and had already sketched out the architectural sketch in his mind. Even if he was just building caves and digging ponds, he had to build the most perfect caves and ponds for Marshal Huangfu and major generals.

The marshal and the major general understood the request of the subordinate officer, and the subordinate officer must do what the marshal and the major general asked, and in about twenty days, the marshal and the major general will be able to move in. Lu Yuanwailang secretly calculated the construction period in his heart and gave an answer that made Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter overjoyed. They originally thought that the house would take at least a month to repair.

It was already dark, and the craftsmen spontaneously lit torches and continued their work, and there were nearly two hours left until the curfew, and the craftsmen wanted to work for another hour before they went home. Seeing this situation, Huangfu Jingde felt a little reluctant in his heart, and when he left, he called his own soldier to whisper a few words, and the personal soldier ran away quickly.

About two quarters of an hour later, the group pushed a cart and carried a basket to the Dingbei Marshal's Mansion, which was under construction. It turned out that Huangfu Jingde ordered his soldiers to buy hot soup and rice, and brought food to these craftsmen. When the craftsmen saw the steaming white flour buns and smelled the fragrant haggis soup, everyone was speechless with excitement.

These craftsmen are all craftsmen, and they have been working in the Ministry of Industry for generations, and the Ministry of Industry only pays wages and does not care about three meals. Even if it is a daily errand, the monthly salary is only enough for the family to chew two meals a day, white flour buns and haggis soup, even if they have a tooth sacrifice during the New Year, they are not willing to eat once.

Lu Yuanwailang was also stunned, and at this time, Huangfu Jingde's personal soldiers stepped forward and bowed to him and said: Lord Lu, this is what our marshal invited everyone to eat. The marshal ordered, and from now on, he would order someone to bring food every day at noon and evening. Let's just let go of our belly and eat. Let everyone work hungry, our marshal can't be happy. Then he said loudly to all the craftsmen: 'Brothers, eat it, if you have enough, each of you can bring a jar of soup and four steamed buns.' Houfu Jingde ate and lived with the soldiers in the Dingbei Army, and he didn't listen to them talk about how difficult it was to live at home, so Huangfu Jingde not only prepared meals for everyone, but also thought of their families.

Lu Yuanwailang suddenly remembered the situation when Huangfu Jingde saved their family of three five years ago, and he nodded excitedly: Okay, Marshal Huangfu is a good person, a good person! The soldiers laughed proudly, of course the marshal of his family is a good person, does this still need to be said by Lord Lu.

After the craftsmen had eaten the food sent by their own soldiers, they gathered around and discussed, only to see that they sent four people to send back the haggis soup and white buns brought to their families, and the others simply did not go home, and worked until the curfew before they slept on the floor, and the next day when the sky was dark, the craftsmen had already gotten up to work. Until dawn, their families came to deliver breakfast one after another, which was also the greeting to the family when they returned from delivering things last night. Marshal Huangfu was so kind to them, of course they had to do their best to repair the house for Marshal Huangfu.

Huangfu Jingde didn't know about the actions of the craftsmen, and he had just returned to Gongsun Mansion with his daughter, and Gongsun Sheng, who had received the news, came over.

Brother Huangfu, I'm afraid the emperor will summon you after tomorrow's court meeting. Gongsun Sheng said with a frown.

Huangfu Jingde was stunned for a moment, his face became solemn, and he asked anxiously: But the border is in a hurry? Now that Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter are on vacation, if there is no important matter, Emperor Zhaoming will not summon him.

Gongsun Sheng shook his head and said: Brother Huangfu has just won a big victory, and now it is Siyi who has surrendered, and the border pass is very stable. It's just that Jingbian is in big trouble today.

Brother Xian is talking about Miss Thursday? Huangfu Jingde understood a little, frowned and said.

Gongsun Sheng nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Huangfu, do you know who Miss Thursday is?"

Huangfu Jingde shook his head and said: How can I know about a little girl's family.

Brother Huangfu, Zhou Xingtian, the left attendant of this ministry, is the distant nephew of the Queen Mother, and his wife is the cousin of Liu Guifei. This Thursday Miss is a concubine, and she is quite famous in the capital, and the Queen Mother and Concubine Liu Guifei like her very much. He is called into the palace several times a year. Gongsun Sheng frowned and said, obviously looking down on this famous Miss Thursday in the capital.

Huangfu Jingde was really taken aback, even if he was far away from the capital, he also knew that the Queen Mother and Liu Guifei had never dealt with each other, how could a girl who was only a teenager please the Queen Mother and Liu Guifei's will, if this girl did not have some means, Huangfu Jingde would not believe it.

Sure enough, it has a means. Huangfu Jingde frowned and said.

Gongsun Sheng hurriedly asked: Brother Huangfu, Yuan Qing has already said the later situation, what else happened before that?

Huangfu Jingde immediately shouted outside: Someone, send the young general over. The soldiers outside the door answered. After a while, Huangfu Yongning walked in.

Dad, Uncle Gongsun, are you looking for me? Huangfu Yongning asked with a smile.

Huangfu Jingde asked with a stern face: Jingbian, from the time you heard someone call for help, until your father rushed over, you will tell you in detail about the events during this period.

Huangfu Yongning was stunned for a moment before he realized that her father was talking about saving Miss Thursday during the day. I frowned and thought for a while before I said: At that time, I was riding a thunderbolt to the city gate, and suddenly I heard someone in the woods on the right calling for help, so I went into the woods to investigate, and there were five men around Miss Thursday tearing her clothes, I immediately rushed over to save people, I grabbed Miss Thursday and clamped it under the ribs, cut the heads of the five men with a sword, and then put Miss Thursday on the ground, and saw that she was unconscious, I doused her with water in a water bladder to wake her up, Miss Thursday woke up and was stunned by my mask, I poured water on her again, she woke up again, and this time she did not faint again, and called out my identity, Dad, Uncle Gongsun, am I already so famous?

Huangfu Yongning's rhetorical question really made Huangfu Jingde and Gongsun Sheng cry and laugh, this kid is missing eyes or eyes, he is really a master with a stick and a needle.

Jingbian, get down to business! Huangfu Yongning frowned and scolded, Huangfu Yongning sighed, and said: Then I don't know what to do, so I sent a signal to my father for help, and then my father came. Then Yuan Qingyuan, Zi Yuanniang also came.

Gongsun Sheng frowned and shook his head after hearing this, and Huangfu Jingde also thought of something, and smiled helplessly and bitterly.

Jingbian, are you sure you put Miss Thursday under your ribs and poured water on her head and face? Gongsun Sheng confirmed again. Huangfu Yongning nodded, she really didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what she was doing.

Seeing that Huangfu Yongning's eyes were full of the look that I had done nothing wrong, Gongsun Sheng couldn't help but sigh and called: Come on, call the eldest prince to come over.

When Gongsun Yuanqing came, Gongsun Sheng asked Huangfu Yongning to speak again, and when Gongsun Yuanqing heard that Huangfu Yongning sandwiched Miss Thursday under his ribs and wet people's clothes, his face was not very good-looking.

Dad, Uncle Huangfu, Jingbian's identity is afraid that it has to be announced to the world. Gongsun Yuanqing said very heavily.

Huangfu Yongning hadn't reacted yet, but asked in surprise: What is my identity? After asking, she thought for a while, and then she understood, and then stared at Gongsun Yuanqing with wide eyes, and shouted as if she was looking at some kind of monster: You actually know?

Gongsun Sheng also looked at Huangfu Jingde in surprise, and the meaning in his eyes was clear: You didn't tell her that Yuanqing knew her true identity?

Huangfu Jingde naturally did not sue sรน. Xu is because he has trained his daughter a little too many times these days, so Huangfu Yongning has the intention of turning into a slippery little loach, and he either sneaks to Prince Le's mansion to find his brother or pulls Yuan Qing Yuanzi to ride a horse, otherwise it is good to mix in front of the old lady Gongsun for a while, but he refuses to stay alone with her father, so Huangfu Jingde has no chance to say. At first he wanted to say it, but then he forgot about it.

Belch...... This, Jingbian, Yuan Qing already knows that you are Yongning. Huangfu Jingde touched his nose a little unnaturally, and said quickly.

Oh. Eh, you'll know if you know, what a big deal! Yuan Qing, even if you know that I am Yongning, you are also my good buddy, right? Huangfu Yongning screamed heartlessly, and slapped Gongsun Yuanqing with his hand.

In fact, this girl has never regarded the fact that she is a daughter's family as a big deal. If it weren't for her father's life in Chengri's family, Huangfu Yongning would almost forget that he was a girl's family. She once thought that she was a man like the soldiers in the Dingbei Army.

Gongsun Yuanqing hummed embarrassedly, two smears of red light flew on his face, but he secretly said in his heart: I don't want to be your good buddy, I want to be your husband. It's just that Gongsun Yuanqing was embarrassed to say this.

The eyes of the two fathers are straight, this ...... This...... What the hell is going on? The one who should be shy is not shy, and the one who shouldn't be shy blushes in embarrassment, it's really a complete mess. Gongsun Sheng couldn't help but glance at his friend complainingly, and said in his stomach: Look at what you have raised a good daughter!

Hey, Yuan Qing, are you very hot, why is your face red? Emperor Fu Yongning, who has few tendons, is still outspoken, and she saw that Gongsun Yuanqing blushed, and even stepped forward to express her concern.

Huangfu Jingde couldn't stand it anymore, so he dragged his daughter rudely and yelled: Go back to the room.

Huangfu Yongning was puzzled, and got rid of her father's restraint very easily, and asked stupidly: Dad, why did you let me go back to the room, aren't we discussing things? By the way, Dad, you and Uncle Gongsun asked me to come over and talk twice about saving Miss Thursday, but you haven't told me anything?

As soon as Huangfu Yongning said this, Huangfu Jingde and Gongsun Sheng's father and son all looked at her with the eyes of a little monster, and then, Gongsun and his son looked at Huangfu Jingde with condemnation.

Dad, you're so weird, do you have a toothache? Huangfu Yongning saw her father gritting his teeth, so he asked with concern.

You...... Huangfu Jingbian, you get out of here, how far and how far you go! Huangfu Jingde, who was so angry with his heartless daughter that he almost vomited blood, yelled.

Gongsun Sheng immediately didn't agree, he glared at Huangfu Jingde and said in a deep voice: Brother Huangfu, Jingbian has a pure heart, what's wrong with her, what kind of evil fire are you sending at her!

Huangfu Yongning and Huangfu Oude depend on each other, even if they are yelled at by her father, it does not mean that others can yell at her father in person. Huangfu Yongning immediately shouted: Uncle Gongsun, my father is right, I must be wrong, don't say my father.

At this time, Gongsun Sheng realized the mood of Huangfu Jingde yelling just now, he was really aggrieved! It's just that he can't shout out directly like Huangfu Jingde.

Gongsun Yuanqing looked at the situation that was out of control in an instant, and he couldn't take care of his own careful thoughts. Busy stepped forward to play the round and said: Jingbian, you tell us what happened, there will be nothing for you, you have been running around for a day today, go back and rest early. Uncle Huangfu and my father...... Speaking of this, Gongsun Yuanqing looked at the two people whose faces were purple, and then turned his head to Huangfu Yongning and smiled: I am here, don't worry.

Huangfu Yongning looked at his father and Uncle Gongsun's chest bulging like a frog croaking in the field, his face turned purple, and he also knew that it was best to flash away, so as not to turn around and be reprimanded again, so he responded obediently, quickly saluted and retreated, and left without a trace in a short time.

Seeing Huangfu Yongning walking away, Gongsun Yuanqing let out a sigh, but he could be regarded as coaxing her away, otherwise the subject would have to go from Yanjing City to Ninghai Customs today. Ning Customs is the southernmost pass of Dachen, thousands of miles away from Yanjing City.

Uncle Huangfu, Dad, Jingbian's identity can no longer be kept secret, otherwise the Queen Mother and Liu Guifei will definitely join forces to put pressure on Jingbian to marry Miss Thursday as his wife. Without Huangfu Yongning, the factor that made Gongsun Yuanqing uneasy, Gongsun Yuanqing's mind became clear again.

The Queen Mother should not, if my prediction is right, the emperor should have told the Queen Mother about Jingbian's life experience, but it is difficult to say about Liu Guifei. Huangfu Jingde pondered for a moment before he said hesitantly.

Gongsun Yuanqing said: For today's plan, the only way to deal with all changes is to remain the same, in fact, Miss Thursday's dangerous move has put herself in an extremely embarrassing situation. We're not completely passive. Uncle Huangfu, Dad, you don't have to worry too much, it's not too early, let's rest early, and everything will be clear tomorrow.
