Chapter 326: The Literate Man

In the evening, Jiang Mi led the people to join the Zhao brothers.

The place where they camped yesterday is now desolate, countless soldiers with broken limbs lying on the ground groaning, soldiers and doctors coming in and out, and even people like the scribe surnamed Shao are covered in blood.

Seeing this scene, the Cui clan people who lived for the rest of their lives after the disaster did not have the mood to celebrate, they sat honestly in a corner, and Mrs. Cui even sent maidservants to take care of these injured soldiers.

According to everyone, last night's war was a great victory, 20,000 enemies were wiped out by them, and countless cattle and horses were harvested. According to the big man surnamed Niu, the enemy not only has twice the strength of their troops, but also has strong soldiers and horses and is prepared, so they have been defeated by them.

After three days of repairing in situ, the team set off again.

After this march, Jiang Mi's status in the hearts of everyone has risen to a new level, and it can be said that her current prestige is only below that of a scribe surnamed Shao. In the entire team, after the Zhao brothers and Cui Zixuan, Jiang Mi's status in the army can be ranked fifth.

It may be that the battle was fought majesticly, and the next journey was extremely smooth, and the speed of the team was nearly doubled, so after walking for three days, even the ordinary soldiers also recovered from the pain caused by the battle, and they talked and laughed one by one.

In the evening of this day, after the team stopped camping, Jiang Mi received an invitation from Mrs. Cui, saying that she was grateful to Jiang Mi for finding the valley in time that day. saved the lives of the Cui family, so she was specially invited to the banquet.

When Jiang Mi rode a horse to Cui's camp, he saw from a distance that the smoke was curling not far from Mrs. Cui's tent, and the beef, rabbit and venison were burned golden on both sides.

Jiang Mi swallowed a few times.

After she turned over and dismounted, and threw her mount to Chen San, Jiang Miti stepped into Old Madam Cui's camp.

In Mrs. Cui's camp, in addition to a few women, there are also a few clan elders. Seeing Jiang Mi coming in, Mrs. Cui hurriedly stood up, and she said lovingly, "Child." Come on in. Come on in. ”

Jiang Mi walked over.

In the smile of Old Madam Cui, Jiang Mi sat down in the guest seat.

Old Madam Cui kept looking at Jiang Mi with a smile on her face, and looking at it like this, she felt more and more that this kid's eyebrows were exquisite. No wonder those people say he is "like a good woman".

looked at Jiang Mi lovingly. Old Madam Cui said gratefully: "Fortunately, Xu Lang is talented. That day, I helped Xuan'er find that valley and saved me from a catastrophe!" she motioned to the maid to fill Jiang Mi with wine, raised the wine cup and said to Jiang Mi: "This cup of wine is the heart of the old body!"

Jiang Mi hurriedly picked up the wine cup and drank it all. She said politely: "That's just a matter within Xu's share, and I don't deserve the old lady's thanks." ”

After Jiang Mi drank the wine, two more elders stood up and toasted Jiang Mi.

Jiang Mi did not refuse, and the action of raising his head to drink was very happy.

Old Madam Cui has been looking at Jiang Mi, she didn't care much about this young man before, but now she looks at her movements are refreshing and elegant, she is sitting here with so many nobles, but she behaves calmly, she can't see the slightest stage fright in her speech, nor the slightest rudeness, there is a faint calm demeanor that makes people break their hearts. couldn't help it, Old Madam Cui asked with a smile: "Seeing that Xu Xiaolangjun is so extraordinary, but he is also a child of the family?"

She looks like a child of a family? Jiang Mi was stunned when she looked at Old Madam Cui.

Jiang Mi didn't expect that after Cui Zixuan's special training some time ago, her speech and demeanor already met the requirements of a nobleman. She used to be looked down upon, and the biggest reason was that she was not confident, and when people were not confident, they would seem to be cringe, and when they flinched, they would naturally have no bearing.

And after last night, Jiang Mi suddenly discovered that the nobles who were high up in the sky were actually not as good as her, her heart and vision had changed, and the pattern had naturally changed. So this old lady Cui actually thinks that she is like an excellent heir cultivated by a family.

Looking up at Old Madam Cui, Jiang Mi shook her head, and she smiled: "No, my family background is very ordinary." ”

Old Madam Cui smiled, and she hurriedly said: "There is a so-called hero in troubled times, and Little Brother Xu is talented, and sooner or later he will get ahead in this troubled times." This sentence is also everyone's perception of Jiang Mi, and Mrs. Cui didn't praise her at all.

When Cui Zixuan came back, before he entered the tent, he heard the voices of Jiang Mi and Mrs. Cui and others, he stood for a while, but turned to leave.

Not long after Cui Zixuan left, Jiang Mi also came out surrounded by several servants. Now there is still a little time before dinner, Jiang Mi has drunk too much wine and is about to go to the toilet.

With a red white face, Jiang Mi walked towards the front a little unsteadily.

Li Jun'er, the seventh lady of the Li family of Zhao County, saw such a Jiang Mi.

She was walking towards Mrs. Cui with more than a dozen servants, and when she met Jiang Mi in a narrow way, Li Jun'er's eyes fell on Jiang Mi's delicate eyebrows and crimson cheeks a little uncontrollably.

She has no good impression of this skinny kid who doesn't look manly at all, and makes Cui Zixuan admit in public that he gave birth to a child.

Originally, Li Jun'er didn't think that this kid was worth taking care of herself, but that night, Cui Zixuan returned from the battle, and just after talking to his grandmother and sisters, he went to see this kid for the first time.

So, when she saw Jiang Mi walking towards her, she involuntarily stopped.

Looking up at Jiang Mi up and down for a moment, Li Jun'er blessed her, and said softly, "Where is Xu Xiaolangjun going?"

Jiang Mi was a little drunk, she tilted her head towards the woman who was blocking the way and looked at her for a long time, but she didn't answer.

Jiang Mi's negligence of Li Jun'er made this proud girl of the sky more and more displeased, Li Jun'er lowered her eyes, glanced at Jiang Mi from the corner of her eyes, and said softly: "Xu Erlang's face is quite like a woman, I hope that his temperament is not like a woman." After all, a dignified husband. It is not appropriate to be subservient to others. ”

Jiang Mi tilted her head and thought for a while before she understood the meaning of Li Jun'er's words. Is she reminding her not to break her sleeves with Cui Zixuan?

Thinking of this, Jiang Mi smiled.

She's already a little drunk, and she's a lot more reckless. At that moment, Jiang Mi walked in front of Li Jun'er.

Li Jun'er was half a head shorter than Jiang Mi, and at this moment, Jiang Mi looked down at Li Jun'er while actually circling around her.

After looking Li Jun'er up and down, Jiang Mi laughed softly: "Miss Li Qi really deserves to be from a big aristocratic background like the Li family of Zhao County, and even scolding a person is so elegant that she seems to be a gentle mention. It's almost grateful!"

Li Jun'er lowered her eyes. She gracefully blessed Jiang Mi, and said expressionlessly: "Thank you Xu Lang for your praise." ”

Jiang Mi stopped when she turned to her, she tilted her head to look at Li Jun'er, and said with a smile: "You look down on me?" didn't wait for Li Jun'er to answer. Jiang Mi said to herself again: "Yes." Of course you look down on me...... Who can you look up to with people from such backgrounds?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Mi shook his head. She looked down at Li Jun'er, chuckled and continued: "But, Miss Li Qi, do you know that when I see you now, girl, I really feel that you are also pitiful?"

As soon as Jiang Mi's voice fell, Li Jun'er smiled, she covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said contemptuously to Jiang Mi: "You also deserve to pity me?"

In the face of Li Jun'er's rhetorical question, Jiang Mi had a very graceful chin, she held her hands behind her shoulders, and said with a shallow smile on the corner of her lips: "Li Qixiang wants to know why I think you are pitiful?" Without waiting for Li Jun'er to answer, Jiang Mi had already said in a clear voice, "Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the family gate valve has prevailed in the world. Miss Li Qi, do you know that all along, what is the name of the family?"

Hearing this, a contemptuous smile appeared on Li Jun'er's face, and she was about to answer Jiang Mi's ignorant question. Jiang Mi was already there and smiled and said: "Without him, it's just the words people, money, and power." Well, a large number of fields under the family circle are private property, and there are countless agricultural departments under his hands. Wealth, every manor is a cornucopia, power, there are people in the court who are officials, big officials. ”

Speaking of this clearly, Jiang Mi turned her head to look at Li Jun'er, and she said with a smile: "Miss Li Qi, now that you are in troubled times, the Boling Cui clan still has a Cui Zixuan who is exhausted, and finally made a contribution in front of the new master, and can make a territory that makes the family prosperous." I heard that your manor has been wiped out of nine, and the hired peasants have also been gone, and now you have not made the slightest contribution in front of the new emperor. I don't know if Miss Li Qi has ever thought that once the new dynasty is established, can your family still be called a family?"

If it had been in the past, Jiang Mi wouldn't have been able to say this!

If she hadn't been drunk, she wouldn't have been able to say this!

But after passing through the valley that night, Jiang Mi, who drank a little wine, said such a thing here!

All of a sudden, all of a sudden, the four fields are quiet!

Li Jun'er has always thought that her nobility is because of her blood, because of her surname, and no one has ever told her that they are noble because they have property, manpower and official positions.

What's even more terrifying is that being reminded by Jiang Mi like this, Li Jun'er was shocked to understand why the elders of the family have been frowning all along!

Li Jun'er's face was pale, and after Jiang Miyi's reminder, she suddenly found that her family might really be on the wrong side!

At this time, Jiang Mi saw that she was about to cry when she said Li Jun'er, so she couldn't help but snort for a drink, and fled in a hurry.

Jiang Mi didn't notice that she had just left with her front foot, and on her back foot, Mrs. Cui and those clan elders appeared.

Old Madam Cui's face was very ugly.

With a gray face, she stared blankly at the direction Jiang Mi left, and after a while, she pursed her lips, turned to several clan elders and said in a dumb voice, "Is this the case?"

Several clan elders were silent, all the time, they had been discussing how to revitalize the family, but they thought about it the most, and it was far less deafening than the words of Xu Er who heard it at this moment!

In the collective aphasia, Mrs. Cui looked at Li Jun'er and the others who were as pale as snow from afar, and it was only at this time that she realized that these six women were actually not so necessary to marry......

Turning back slowly, Mrs. Cui seemed to have lost all her strength, and walked unsteadily towards the camp with the handmaid's hand. As she walked, she muttered to herself, "Is this the case? Why has no one ever told the old man so clearly after all these years?"

Not far away, Cui Zixuan also took his eyes off Jiang Mi, he glanced at Mrs. Cui, who was staggering while walking, sighed lightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, let's go back to the camp." ”

"Yes. ”

The guards hurriedly responded, and they were still in a bit of a trance as they walked. After a while, one of the guards whispered: "Childe, this Xu Erlang is a rare smart person!"

The other guard sighed and said, "It's just too smart, the words just now hit the nail on the head, and it stabbed people's hearts in panic!"

As they talked, they couldn't help but be surprised when they found that Cui Zixuan was smiling delicately with his head down. One of the guards asked curiously, "Childe, what are you thinking?"

Cui Zixuan raised his head, and he whispered, "It's okay......" It's just that every time he finally makes up his mind not to pay attention to this Xu Er, but the next time he sees him, he will always let him overturn his previous conclusions. This feeling is really only experienced in Jiang's body.

After a while, Cui Zixuan casually ordered: "Let them intensify their investigation of Xu Er, I want to know everything about him, including how old he is that he doesn't pee on the kang!" As soon as these words came out, several guards looked at each other, just yesterday, his son-in-law had just given an order, saying that he was taking back the manpower to investigate Xu Er......

After Jiang Mi came back from the latrine, she found that Mrs. Cui and several clan elders were sick and could not accompany her to eat.

If you don't accompany you, you won't accompany them, they won't eat more fragrant in Jiang Mi.

So, after a full meal, Jiang Mi happily returned to her tent.

Now, Jiang Mi's personal guards have as many as ten people, and when they saw her coming, the guards saluted her with brushes, and Shao Xiaozi, who had been beaten by a scribe surnamed Shao on one side, also saluted Jiang Mi with a complicated expression at this moment.

After the aftermath of that night, Jiang Mi didn't want to be too smiling with Shao Xiaozi, so she didn't see it and strode into the camp.

The tent was full of geographical records collected by the army. As Jiang Mi showed his tactics several times, the Zhao brothers had already regarded Jiang Mi's analysis of geographical records as an important part of the military intelligence report. In fact, most of her ten personal guards are literate people, and they also have the meaning of assisting Jiang Mi in this regard.

When Jiang Mi opened a volume of geographical chronicles, Chen San walked in. He saluted Jiang Mi and said happily: "Xu Erlang, the general sent someone just now, because it will be winter soon, after discussing with Cui Jialangjun, they are going to find a big city in front of them to settle down first, and then leave when the spring flowers bloom." ”
