Chapter 383 - Acting Style
On this day, the day is beautiful.
Under such a bright sky, even the dust is a little lovely. Cui Zixuan and Jiang Mi stood hand in hand in the attic of Cui's mansion, looking at the purple courtyard.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and a guard came behind Cui Zixuan and said, "Childe, the Fanyang Lu clan and the Taiyuan Wang clan have all been prepared, they sent a letter to ask when Gongzi's soldiers and horses will arrive?"
Cui Zixuan bowed his head slightly, signaling that he knew, he turned his head to Jiang Mi, smiled and said, "Ah Mi, how about borrowing 2,000 soldiers and horses from you?"
Jiang Mi has 10,000 soldiers and horses on hand, and the real elite is the number of 2,000.
Jiang Mi turned her head, and under the sun, her eyes were like glass, shining with a clear and beautiful light. Looking at Cui Zixuan, Jiang Mi responded: "Okay." ”
Her good words without hesitation made Cui Zixuan take a deep breath, he held Jiang Mi's hand tightly, and said with a bit of self-deprecation and astringency: "In this world, I have many confidants and friends who can trust each other with my life, but the only one who can lean on my back is my wife." Obviously, his family has a big business and countless supporters, but since he is sensible, he always has the feeling of fighting alone, and only after meeting Jiang Mi does he know what peace of mind is. And now, he really understands what the word "peace of mind" feels like.
In the blink of an eye, Cui Zixuan explained to Jiang Mi in a low voice: "Now that even Li Mo of the Southern Tang Dynasty has been surrendered to Chai Rong, looking at the princes from all walks of life, a king who can have a holy heaven like Chai Rong really can't find a second one." After discussion, several other major families also have the intention of moving to Bianliang. At this point, he didn't know what to think, looked at the clouds in the sky, and sighed softly.
After a while, Cui Zixuan said again: "However, they are now moving over, and they are also the main figures of the relocated branch. Worried about the insecurity on the road, the Taiyuan Wang clan and the Fanyang Lu clan and the Qinghe Cui clan all borrowed troops from me. My 6,000 soldiers and horses, plus your 2,000 soldiers and horses, should be able to protect them all the way to the safe arrival. ”
Jiang Mi knew that the elders of the Boling Cui clan had also left for Bianliang, and after thinking that after a while, the children of the five and seven sects would gather in Bianliang, and this Bianliang City would be a little prosperous.
She looked at Cui Zixuan with eyes as clear as water for a while, and secretly thought: If it was before, I would definitely be anxious and worried when I heard that people from the Five Hopes and Seven Sects were coming to Bianliang. But now I have a two-year covenant with him, and at least for those two years, he will not break that vow.
As for what will happen in two years, Jiang Mi doesn't want to think about it, and even Cui Zixuan doesn't want to think about it. In these turbulent times, they have already lived a day to take advantage of a day, and two years is too long in the eyes of many people.
Not to mention that Jiang Mi and Cui Zixuan are in love with each day as the last day, on that side, Fan Yuxiu is also on the road.
Shao Jun sent 200 people to pick her up and return to Bianliang, which made Fan Yuxiu, who thought she would die in the countryside, both happy and worried.
Fan Yuxiu has a straightforward personality and no city government, and because her appearance and figure are too ordinary, deep down, she even has a little inferiority. Especially when she thinks of the beautiful concubine who grew up with Shao Jun's childhood sweetheart in Bianliang City, she is even more timid.
Looking at the dust raised on the official road, Fan Yuxiu squeezed out a smile and wondered: Why do you want to do so much? Everything will wait until Bianliang.
Seeing her poking her head out of the carriage, a round-faced young man approached her, and he smiled and asked, "Madame, are you tired?"
This young man appeared not long ago, he followed the guards sent by Shao Jun, although this kid insisted that he was also a guard sent by Shao Jun, but Fan Yuxiu just felt that this young man with a Youzhou accent seemed to have another purpose.
Fan Yuxiu, who has a lively personality and no arrogance, glanced at the young man when she heard this, and replied: "I'm tired and can't rest, why are you asking these useless words?"
The young man Ah Jing squinted his round eyes with a smile, and he said crisply: "If Madame is tired, A-Jing will accompany Madame to talk." In a blink of an eye, he said: "Madame, are you worried that life will not be easy after arriving in Bianliang? ”
Ah Jing's words really touched Fan Yuxiu's heart. Thinking of the mother-in-law who hated herself, the concubine who was very cherished by her mother-in-law and husband, Fan Yuxiu sighed bitterly and said, "How can you not be worried?"
Ah Jing grinned and said happily: "That's because there will be someone to help Madame when you get to Bianliang City." ”
"Someone to help me?" Fan Yuxiu didn't believe it, she widened her eyes and asked repeatedly, "Who?
Ah Jing said with a smile: "Madame doesn't know, Li Mo and Prince Li, who came over from the Southern Tang Dynasty just now, are very valued by His Majesty, and his wife is Madame's friend Zheng Wen when you were in Shu Kingdom." ”
"Zheng Wen?" Fan Yuxiu screamed with joy, and she asked anxiously, "Is it really Zheng Wen?"
Ah Jing became serious, and he said seriously with a round face: "Don't dare to deceive Madame!"
Fan Yuxiu was really overjoyed at this time, she casually pulled the curtain of the carriage, and said happily while unconsciously pulling: "Zheng Wen has also arrived in Bianliang? Great, great, I have someone to talk to." In a blink of an eye, she said to herself, "Mother won't let me go out then, will she?" She was happy and sad for a while, and her round face, which had lost a lot of weight, was very rich.
In a carriage not far away, several Shaw servants frowned at the same time when they saw Fan Yuxiu's appearance, revealing a look of disdain.
After walking on the official road for seven or eight days like this, in the afternoon of this day, Fan Yuxiu was swaying in the carriage after dinner, and suddenly, there was a sound of fighting and crying outside.
Fan Yuxiu woke up suddenly.
When she woke up, she suddenly found that a group of mountain bandits appeared at some point, and those mountain bandits blocked the way of the official road, and were rushing towards the team with Han Sensen's big knife!
Fan Yuxiu was born in a family of military generals, seeing this, after she gasped, she quickly picked up the bow and arrow hanging on the wall of the carriage, and after tidying up her clothes, she quickly jumped off the carriage, cut a rope, and then turned over and jumped on the horse pulling the carriage.
......
Listening to the sound of fighting in the night, Zhao Kuangyin suddenly stopped his galloping horse, and before he could ask, several soldiers in charge of detective news hurriedly ran over and reported to him: "General Yu, on the narrow road ahead, the Black Tiger Mountain bandits are surrounding a team of several hundred people, and the two sides are fighting!" As soon as the soldier's voice fell, another soldier rushed over, and the soldier turned over and dismounted, and reported to Zhao Kuangyin: "General Yu, the team of people who were surrounded, looking at its banner, seems to be the family of Lord Shao!"
"Shao Jun's family?" Zhao Kuangyi, who was following behind Zhao Kuangyin, gasped and said to Zhao Kuangyin: "Big brother, it seems that this matter has to be taken care of." ”
Zhao Kuangyin nodded, and he ordered: "Send someone to rescue immediately." ”
"Yes. ”
However, they were late to go. When Zhao Kuangyin and others arrived, they saw a stubborn woman with a dozen guards fighting against the bandits. After only a brief sweep, Zhao Kuangyi snorted coldly and said, "Shao Jun is not strict in governing his family, his guards actually left their masters and fled!" Under the remnant sun, you can also see the figures of those guards who fled in a hurry. This scene made Zhao Kuangyin also frown.
At this time, Zhao Kuangyi turned to Fan Yuxiu, who was desperately resisting and dressed as a woman, and said in admiration: "This woman is bloody, and I don't know who Shao Jun is?"
While the two brothers were talking, their men had already outflanked them, and in a few moments they had beheaded the bandits with their sabers. On that side, Fan Yuxiu saw that he was finally saved, and the whole person knelt towards the ground, fortunately being held by Ah Jing.
Ah Jing helped Fan Yuxiu to walk towards the Zhao brothers, and when he came to them, Fan Yuxiu gave a salute and said gratefully: "Thank you to the two generals for saving their lives." ”
Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and after turning his head and giving a few orders, he took Fan Yuxiu and the others towards the camping place.
After a while, Fan Yuxiu sat down beside the burning fire, and while warming her hands with a warm wine cup, she replied to Zhao Kuangyin's question in a low voice, "The concubine's surname is Fan, and my husband's name is Shao Jun." ”
......
Shao Jun returned relatively early this day.
As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw the reddened eyes of the concubine Su Qiu who greeted him.
Seeing that her expression was wrong, Shao Jun felt a moment in his heart, and he asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
Su Qiu's eyes became redder and redder, she looked at Shao Jun, and said in a low voice: "Yes, it's Sister Fan......" In Shao Jun's serious staring, Su Qiu said with a worried face: "The team that picked up Sister Fan met the mountain bandits, sister her, she fell into the hands of the mountain bandits." ”
Shao Jun nodded slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry, I just received the news that she has been rescued." ”
"But, Sister Fan, she ......" Su Qiu's voice was a little quieter, she looked at Shao Jun uneasily, bit her lip and whispered: "I'm afraid that Sister Fan will fall into the hands of bandits and spend the night spreading the news......"
At this moment, Mrs. Shao came over with the support of the maidservant, and she said angrily with a cold face: "No matter what, my Shao family can't have a daughter-in-law who has lost her innocence." Jun'er, since she is the daughter of the Fan family of Shu Kingdom, let her go to the family temple to pray for our family. This old lady Shao obviously had already made up her mind, and after saying this in one breath, she stared at Shao Jun with a straight face, and said with disgust: "Although my Shao family is not a famous family, it is also a white family that has been clean for hundreds of years, and this kind of thing is absolutely intolerable. Jun'er, you should send someone to pick up the woman immediately, and don't let her enter the door, just go directly to the temple. ”
Shao Jun frowned, and he said in a deep voice: "It's a big matter, my marriage with her doesn't just represent our two families. Well, take her home first, and then make plans when you figure things out. He stretched out his hand to interrupt the unhappy Shao mother, and said categorically: "I will deal with this matter, and my mother should not worry." Speaking of this, he turned to Su Qiu, "It's night, the wind is a little strong, you can help your mother into the house." Su Qiu responded with a respectful yes, lowered her head to cover the smile that couldn't be suppressed at the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "Husband, go and rest, it's not too late to think about Sister Fan's affairs tomorrow." Speaking of this, she turned around respectfully and carefully helped Old Madam Shao towards the inner house.
