Chapter 354: Loopholes
As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread, Yin Susu's disease is caused by long-term overwork, so even if she is a martial arts master with deep internal strength, she is really sick for several days before she fully recovers. She is so sick, her energy naturally can't catch up, but fortunately, she is in Layue, everyone is busy with the New Year, plus the snow has been heavy in the past few days, and the weather is cold, so the weather is really inconvenient, and there is no major event.
And the news of the princess's miscarriage has also occupied a lot of people's attention, and several princes who are interested in competing for the crown prince are secretly glad that if the crown princess really gave birth to a boy, it is not sure what the situation will be. On the one hand, he was happy, but on the other hand, he suspected that his other brothers did it, if he could find out the other party, not only would he have one less competitor, but he would also be able to add some points to the hearts of his father and the prince. Therefore, these people all stared at each other, saving a lot of energy.
On Yin Susu's side, Ben is in the middle of the year, the family business is big, and there are many affairs, so when she is so sick, many jobs have to be shared by others. Even Lin Yu was a lot busy, helping to deal with a lot of affairs, and he didn't go back to his house until the 26th of the lunar month. Of course, it was also because of the cold and slippery roads and deep snow, she lived alone, and in fact, there were not many housework to deal with.
By the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Lin Yu was almost idle, and it had been sunny for two or three days at this time, and the snow on many roads had been almost cleared. The sun was bright, and although it was not as scorching as in summer, it gave a warm feeling when it shone through the glass windows, even if it was actually provided by the hearth.
In the sunny place by the window, Yin Susu and Lin Yu were drinking tea. Choose from warm teas and beautiful flower teas, and there are several small snacks on the table that are both attractive in terms of appearance and taste.
"I've been helping me these days, thanks to you." Yin Susu took a sip of tea lightly and let out a comfortable sigh. "I didn't expect your ability to be very good, although it can't be regarded as a natural posture, but you handle its affairs very methodically and steadily, which is very different from when you were a child."
Lin Yu said in his heart, of course it is different, after all, I am Lin Yu and not Lin Ruoyu. But this is something that no one can say. Lin Yu didn't want to have an in-depth discussion on this topic, so he just changed the topic and said, "My sister suddenly fell seriously ill before. But it scared the hell out of me, and now it's almost good. ”
Yin Susu didn't care too much, "Actually, it's okay if I'm sick now, and it's a proper rest." Otherwise, the string on a bow will break if it is always very tight. Even people like me are no exception. ”
This is true, it's not a good thing not to get sick all the time, which shows that the body's immune system is too sluggish, but of course Lin Yu can't say that, just took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "But Sister Susu, although you are sick urgently, your health is getting better quickly." Doctor Hu also said that it will take a month or two for you to get well. ”
After all, Yin Susu is a martial arts master with deep internal strength, and his recovery power is very strong. There are also famous doctors and all kinds of precious medicinal materials that can be used, with her condition at that time, ordinary people do have to delay a month or two, and she will be cured in ten days.
This also liberated everyone in the dire situation, from the intelligence department to the head of the business group to Lan Yuan, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, after Yin Susu fell ill all of a sudden, these things that were originally handled by her alone, even if they were each of them, were tired enough. Fortunately, Yin Susu recovered quickly, and there was no unexpected situation recently, and he finally passed it safely.
May the Bodhisattva bless this woman from ever getting sick again, and many people pray this during the year-end ritual incense. But it was not that no one profited from it, such as a certain person surnamed Zhang, who hurried to leave the capital when the cunning fox-like woman fell ill.
Zhang Bailong has been in the capital for a long time, long enough for him to discover certain things, make appropriate arrangements, and then start to get impatient, and there are many things on the Zhang family in Longxi that he needs to go back to deal with, and being trapped in the capital is definitely a painful thing for both him and the Zhang family.
Before the war began, he tried to leave, but at that time, although the court did not show the intention of starting a war, it had been arranged loosely on the outside and tightly on the inside, and he tried once and was almost caught. In the cautious consideration, had to stay, when Yin Susu was sick, he keenly noticed some differences, immediately acted, and finally on the twenty-second day of the lunar month, he took Xiaoba out of the capital, and on the twenty-sixth of the lunar month, he almost broke away from the strict control of the imperial court and entered a small town.
"Childe, there shouldn't be any major problems with the rest of the journey, right?" His little servant Xiaoba looked back at the way he came and couldn't help but sigh. "Even though it wasn't discovered in the end, there were still a few times when it was dangerous."
"Women really need to be sharper." Thinking of the previous failed attempt to leave, even Zhang Bailong sighed with two sighs. However, the cold north wind blew on his face, and he cheered up again, "Although the control of the imperial court here is much smaller, and it is correspondingly much safer, but after all, it is not our own territory, so we still have to be careful." ”
"I naturally know this, and Childe doesn't need to say more." Xiaoba nodded, "Let's eat something and start again, or go back early and feel at ease." ”
"It's okay, the Zhang family has suffered two defeats in a row, I'm afraid some people are panicking." Zhang Bailong was silent for a moment, then nodded.
He was right, the Zhang family fought against the whole country in one place, and it was already very bottomless, and it failed to break through in the rush to meet the battle, so naturally many people panicked. Especially many ordinary clansmen of the Zhang family, who do not get many benefits from the Zhang family on weekdays, but now they are tied to the chariot of rebellion, how can they be happy?
Moreover, Zhang Bailong has never returned, which makes many people in the power center of the Zhang family not very happy. The patriarch and several elders supported him to become the next generation of heirs, not only because he was particularly able to read people's hearts, or because he was good at scheming, but because he showed more genius in military affairs! The Zhang family, who suffered two defeats in succession, desperately hoped that Zhang Bailong would come back to reverse the decline, of course, there were also some people who coveted the position of heir and continued to hype Zhang Bailong's dissatisfaction with the Zhang family and deliberately did not return.
It can't be helped, infighting is also human nature.
"Master, Young Master Bailong has sent a letter back!"
"White Dragon's letter has arrived?" The patriarch took the letter in surprise and opened it to read it.
The patriarch of the Zhang family has been very calm recently, and he seems to be confident, which makes many clansmen think that he must have a plan, and he is a lot more relieved. But it doesn't mean that he is not anxious in his heart, Zhang Bailong's side has not been very smooth. There was almost no news since the start of the war, and he was worried that something unexpected would happen.
He himself was born in the army, but even if he was sixty years old and strong, he would be in charge of the battle situation at the front, and someone else would preside over it on the master's side. Several other people are not the opponents of Lu Pingzhi and others, and the strength and territory of the Zhang family cannot withstand consecutive defeats. Even Lu Pingzhi, the youngest and weakest of several people, although he is a little confused in family affairs, can shock the southwest and bring out an elite soldier, he also has real skills, and his own martial arts are extremely high, and it is difficult to assassinate him.
Therefore, Zhang Bailong must come back and lead the elite soldiers of the Zhang Chen family to reverse the decline, if he does not come back, he will really be given a quick victory by the imperial court, and it is impossible to turn things around.
At this time, receiving Zhang Bailong's letter was undoubtedly a shot in the arm, and when he finished reading the letter and knew that Zhang Bailong was not far from here, he was even more happy and relaxed. At the moment, eating a few not too big defeats is just a decline, far from the time when it is a foregone conclusion, as long as Zhang Bailong comes, as long as he wins a few battles in a row, there will be no big problem.
In this regard, when Yin Susu picked up his work again, he was not unaware of it at all. Like her before, Zhang Bailong's specific identity is secret, she only knows that a very important person is in the capital, of course, it is best to catch it, if she can't catch it, it's good to be trapped. It's a pity that during her illness, her subordinates and colleagues didn't pay enough attention to this matter, and they weren't sharp enough, according to the latest news confided by the Zhang family spies who were caught, that person had successfully left.
"I'm sorry, it was my negligence." This matter is indeed negligent, and her deputy, who shares this part of the work, can only bow his head and admit his mistakes even if he does not have a harmonious relationship with her.
Yin Susu's beautiful dark and deep eyes stopped for a moment on the intelligence, and then stopped on the face that confessed his mistake in front of him, and said lightly, "If you keep following my previous arrangement, he will have no chance to escape." It is said that that person is very good at leading troops to fight, you are a smart person, you know what the consequences of the Dao will be."
"But because of the prince's affairs, there are not enough people, so I transferred some people." The sub-seat argued. "You're sick after all, why am I embarrassed to keep bothering you?"
"Do you know why you didn't sit in the position I am doing now?" Yin Susu didn't continue to discuss this issue, but said lightly, "Because your overall view is really average." ”
"Yes, but right now I-"
"Now is the time to employ people, but there is no next time." Yin Susu said indifferently, "Of course, it is impossible for me to hide such a thing for you, after all, this news must be sent to the front line as soon as possible, if there is really a big problem because of lack of defense, even if you die ten thousand times, it is not enough to atone for your sins." ”
This is already a very good ending, I didn't expect this matter to be hidden, Yin Susu's deputy seat breathed a sigh of relief, but I thought that my work was done, but I didn't expect such a big problem to appear.
"In that case, the subordinate has retired." (To be continued......)
