Chapter 131: Northwest Hou Mansion
Now that he had met Leng Yushu and Xue Biwu, Jing Wushuang naturally wanted to meet Leng Hansong, Hou of the Northwest, and his uncle Leng Su. Just as he was about to set off, Han Qi beside Ji Junluo suddenly arrived, and coincidentally, the Yunzhou Lin family also arrived in Beijing today, and now they have arrived at Princess Ronghua's mansion.
According to Qin Ruixi's meaning, of course he wanted to accompany Jing Wushuang to meet the Northwest Hou, but Jing Wushuang knew that the people of the Lin family in Yunzhou came to Beijing for a few businesses proposed by Qin Ruixi. She didn't understand, but she didn't want to delay his business because of the matter on her side, and after weighing it, Jing Wushuang pulled Qin Ruixi aside and asked him and Hu Er to follow Han Qi home first.
Qin Ruixi naturally has no problem with going home, but think about Xue Biwu, who is watching from the side, his head is shaking like a rattle, and he doesn't dare to say that he is afraid that Jing Wushuang will have an old affection for Xue Biwu, so he can only grab Jing Wushuang's sleeve and be coquettish, "Grandfather and uncle rarely enter Beijing once, I should go to visit." ”
"I didn't say you shouldn't go," Jing Wushuang looked at the sky, "Grandfather, they don't have a house in the capital, I'm going to the post house to pick them up and take them to our house, won't you be able to meet them at night?" ”
"But...... "Qin Ruixi is really not worried about Xue Biwu who is waiting in the distance." But Jing Wushuang just wanted to see his grandfather and uncle as soon as possible, and he really admitted his mistake, and before Qin Ruixi could finish his "but", he beckoned Su Fang and hurriedly walked in the direction of Leng Yushu and Xue Biwu, "Cousin Shu, Brother Xiaowu, let's go to the palace gate and wait for my grandfather and uncle." ”
After thinking about it, Qin Ruixi called Han Ni, who was about to go back to the shop, "You follow Shuangshuang, you are not allowed to be alone with that man, and you have to find an opportunity to make them lose the furniture money." He can see it clearly, Han Ni is not as good as Leng Yushu quarreling is on fire in his heart, and he gives her a chance to fight back, presumably she can help him guard Jing Wushuang very well.
Qin Ruixi expected it to be good, Han Ni's eyes lit up, and he really followed happily, so he went home with Hu Er and Han Qi with confidence.
"Wushuang, you're suffering!" Missing the shadow of Qin Ruixi and his subordinates, Xue Biwu couldn't help but mutter.
Suffer? Jing Wushuang shook his head, "No, there has never been a better time than now." ”
Leng Yushu had already looked at Jing Wushuang's dress and complexion at this time, and sighed and said, "Yes, Tianli Zhaozhao is not happy!" If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Weiyuan Marquis coveted the family background of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites and changed your family affairs, I am afraid that your current life will be even more difficult. ”
Leng Yushu doesn't look like a baby face, but in fact, he is the most master of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. In a few words, he asked Jing Wushuang about his experience over the years, and there was a little anger on the baby's face, "Jing Huatai is too deceitful!" It's just a discredit to the Marquis of Weiyuan! Wushuang, you don't have to force a smile, my cousin knows that you have been wronged, and we must ask my grandfather to seek justice for you. ”
Sometimes smart people will inevitably think too much, Jing Wushuang is obviously telling the truth, let him boil it down, and now he will become Jing Wushuang is just rejoicing, glad that marrying a fool with an extraordinary status is better than marrying a person who is disgusted by the emperor and cuts off his tongue and hand.
Xue Biwu couldn't control anything else, he only knew that Qin Ruixi was not worthy of Jing Wushuang at all, and Jing Wushuang deserved better. For example, he!
Northwest Hou Leng Hansong and his son Leng Su were left in the imperial study by the emperor at this time, Leng Hansong, who was nearly sixty years old, was burly and not angry and mighty, and Leng Su, the son of the Northwest Marquis, looked like a Confucian general, and his speech and actions were gentler and more detailed than that of Northwest Hou. At this time, he was reporting to Ji Sheng about the changes in the Xiliang Kingdom outside the northwest border.
Although Ji Sheng is occasionally a little confused, he will never grind on major matters, and after listening to it, his eyebrows are all in one place, "That Gongzhikang has been in my Daqi Dynasty for many years, and he can still let most of the courtiers in Xiliang support him to return to China and ascend the throne, which is really not to be underestimated!" Tomorrow, I will let Shunzi's father-in-law pay attention, firstly, I will not accept Gongzhikang's request to return to China for the time being, and secondly, I will see who is pleading for Gongzhikang. ”
"The Emperor Shengming!" Leng Su appropriately slapped Ji Sheng's sycophant, and made a request by the way, "The garrison of the Northwest Pass is limited and can ensure that the Xiliang Pass is foolproof, but recently our army scouts have discovered that the Xiliang Kingdom is moving frequently in the area of Qishan, and wants to ask the emperor to order the mobilization of the Lianzhou army to assist in patrolling the Qishan." ”
Qishan, which is close to the border pass, stretches for tens of thousands of miles, the Northwest Army has a limited number of people and is simply beyond the reach of the whip, and the Xiliang Kingdom has frequent changes, and Leng Hansong and Leng Su are worried that there will be some mistakes. This time, only Leng Su should have returned to Beijing to report on his work, and Leng Hansong remembered that he would return to Beijing together, and when he heard his son talk about it, his expression moved slightly, and he looked at the emperor together.
Ji Sheng carefully looked at the map of the northwest border pass on the imperial case for a while, and shook his head, "After the snow disaster in Lianzhou last year, mountain bandits were rampant, and Lianzhou belonged to the fiefdom of King Cheng, King Cheng said that he was sick for two consecutive years and should not be called, and the army of Lianzhou could not move for the time being. The Xiliang Kingdom has been surrendered for many years, and even if the army has the heart to turn against it, it is sad to pass the Xiliang Pass. Besides, Qishan Mountain is steep and can't march at all, Aiqing is too worried. ”
After a pause, he seemed to feel that it was not very good to deny the construction of the Northwest Hou father and son, and he was busy telling the Northwest Hou father and son what should have been announced in the morning tomorrow, "The Leng family has been guarding the northwest border for many years, and their achievements are seen in the eyes of the world. I have asked the Ministry of War to draw up an order to build a new border guard army of 20,000 with Hou Shizi in the northwest, and the household department will allocate grain, grass and military supplies to the border pass in the near future. ”
"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen!" Compared with the emperor's direct refusal, the news of the new garrison still made Leng Su a little happier. Qishan can only say that there is some movement, if the Lianzhou army is mobilized to go to the labor division and mobilize the people, in case King Cheng takes the opportunity to start an incident, it will be a big matter.
"In addition, the Northwest Hou is getting older. You won't even have a place to live when you return to Beijing, and a few days ago, I had already asked the Internal Affairs Office to choose a suitable house as the Northwest Hou Mansion, and there is no need for you to live in a post house in the future. ”
If you want to say that the expansion of the army is still Ji Sheng thinking about the border pass and thinking about state affairs, this mansion is a real family matter, and the father and son once again sincerely thanked the emperor once. The emperor left the two of them for lunch in the palace, and finally let the two out of the palace.
This is bitter, Jing Wushuang and the others, who were waiting at the palace gate before the meal, waited for a long time before seeing Leng Su helping Leng Hansong out of the palace gate. Looking at the two of them getting closer and closer, Jing Wushuang's eyes gradually moistened, she didn't expect to be so excited to see her relatives again, so much so that she couldn't cry after saluting and shouting "grandfather", and was dragged by Han Ni and Su Fang to a restaurant not far from the palace gate before she gradually stopped crying.
As everyone knows, she vented all her grievances and self-blame in this crying, and Leng Hansong and others also misunderstood a lot because of her crying!
