One hundred and ninety-nine, back to the dynasty (1)

Three days later, Wei Ling escorted hundreds of thousands of gold of property, more than 10,000 horses, and 3,000 slaves seized from the court of the Xiongnu and the Liwang court of Yougu, and marched in the direction of Chang'an City.

50,000 Weijia troops are guarding in a group, and the entire Western Regions are shaken by the huge team, this is the result that Chang Hui wants, he wants to let the tribes and countries in the Western Regions know that the Han army returned triumphantly this time, and the Xiongnu were almost wiped out, and the remaining remnants of the defeated army have also retreated to the north of the Ehe River, and they can no longer pose a threat to the Han Dynasty.

The conditions on the way back to the DPRK were much better than when they came, Huo Mei was arranged in a big carriage, Wei Ling was supposed to ride a horse, but he was not worried about Huo Mei, so he accompanied Huo Mei in the carriage.

"Is it okay for you to stay in the carriage all the time? It's going to be a mess out there, so go out and take a look! Wei Ling didn't move, let Huo Mei rest on the soft pillow, and sat on the side, putting Huo Mei's leg on his lap, holding the bamboo slip in one hand to see, and massaging Huo Mei's calf with the other hand.

"There is a grandson of the outside world, don't worry, if there is anything he can't handle, he will come to me! But you, you haven't slept well these days, will you be sleepy? With that, Wei Ling put down the bamboo slip, picked up a nut and pinched it, took out the kernel inside and put it into Huo Mei's mouth.

"This was sent by Gongzi An before leaving, saying that the pregnant woman ate it well! Sleeping on the road, your diet has not been good recently, what do you want to eat, tell me, I'll let people get it for you! ”

Huo Mei chewed the nuts handed by Wei Ling, the taste was not unfamiliar to him, it was the taste of walnuts. In addition, An Gongzi also specially sent cantaloupe and grapes to Huo Mei, which can only be eaten in summer. I don't know where Mr. An got it.

"Can you take me out for a horseback ride, it's very uncomfortable to be trapped in this carriage all day!" Wei Ling naturally knew that Huo Mei was too stuffy, but looking at her belly for seven months, how dare he take her out for horseback riding.

"I'll take you out for a walk when I'm camping, and you're not fit for horseback riding. Good boy, okay? "Now that Wei Ling has completely raised Huo Mei as a daughter, Xiaohong can't stay in the carriage. Because there will be goosebumps at every turn, she really can't stand such a meaty scene, so she simply went out to help Gongsun Shi.

Wei Ling in this compartment was serving Huo Mei comfortably in the carriage. The grandson of the car over there was very busy. Worth hundreds of thousands of gold, as well as more than 10,000 war horses, such a huge wealth naturally attracted the attention of many parties, especially the robbers in the mountains, looking at the property of this cart of property are green, this is a bitter Gongsun Shi, not only to take care of the 50,000 army of the Wei family, but also to take care of the property. In addition, he also has to take care of the more than 10,000 war horses, Gongsun Shi is already tired and is about to vomit blood.

After camping in the evening. Wei Ling helped Huo Mei to walk around the camp, Huo Mei first looked at the surrounding environment, this is a leeward valley, and it is not enough to set up camp, but when he walked into the camp of Guan War Horse, it was chaotic, and there was a constant sound of war horses neighing, which made Huo Mei frown.

"Feeling uncomfortable? Or do you not get used to the smell here? Seeing Huo Mei frowning, Wei Ling thought she was uncomfortable there, so he wanted to pick her up.

Huo Mei pushed his chest, but instead grabbed Wei Ling's hand and said, "How many cavalry are there in the Wei family's army?" ”

Wei Ling was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Huo Mei asked this, but he still answered.

"20,000 cavalry, 30,000 infantry!" Huo Mei frowned and thought for a while, before he said: "In this case, why do you want to drive out so many horses, if these horses are distributed to the soldiers, and handed over to the soldiers to take care of them one-on-one, wouldn't it be more secure, neither worry about the horses running away, nor worry about the damage to the war horses because they can't take care of them!" Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”

Wei Ling lowered his head as if he was considering Huo Mei's suggestion, and only after a long time did he raise his head and say, "But there are military regulations, and I have no right to use these captured war horses!" ”

Huo Mei naturally knows this truth, but this time there are many treasures, and driving these more than 10,000 war horses alone has no benefit except for tiring the soldiers and slowing down the marching speed.

"Military regulations are important, but now the more important thing is the safety of the Wei family army, this way we have brought so much property with great fanfare, it has long attracted the attention of the robbers around, if they form a group, even if we have an army of 50,000, it is difficult to keep a place that is not thorough, if something happens accidentally, then ......" The result of conformism, I am afraid that I will be raided by someone and lose my property, which is a serious crime for Wei Ling, which is enough to destroy the five clans.

Wei Ling lowered his head and thought about it, he couldn't decide this matter alone, so he asked Gongsun Shi to discuss it when he sent Huo Mei back to the big tent, Gongsun Shi heard Huo Mei's construction, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he seemed to approve of Huo Mei's method.

"This is the main thing! The general didn't know that in order to take care of more than 10,000 war horses in the past few days, a lot of troops have been spent, not to mention, and the speed of the march has been slowed down. Wei Ling nodded, and thought for a while before instructing Gongsun Shi.

"Since it's a good idea, go for it! Be sure to find experienced cavalrymen with these horses, try to protect them as much as possible, and don't make mistakes! Over there, I will write it into the newspaper and ask for your grace! ”

Gongsun Shi hurriedly went out to make arrangements, selected those who could ride horses from the 30,000 infantry, and then distributed more than 10,000 war horses to each soldier.

After ten days of marching, Wei Ling and the others came to Yumen Pass, this time Wei Taishou was obviously much more humble, after all, Wei Ling now holds the title of general, and there are 50,000 Wei family troops in his hands, which is naturally something that he can't compete with as a small Taishou.

"The old minister greets the triumphant general of the guard!"

Bowing down, many officials behind Wei Taishou were saluting Wei Ling, Wei Ling didn't have any arrogance for such an occasion, compared with the officials next to him, Wei Ling would not be able to put on a show.

"Wei is too polite, you and I are officials in the same dynasty. It's all for His Majesty, and such a courtesy is to see the outside! Wei Taishou smiled, but unfortunately the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

At this time, Wei Taishou's two daughters. I had long been fascinated by Wei Ling's appearance in armor, and I couldn't wait to lean over.

"The courtiers have seen General Wei, but I didn't expect that after half a year, General Wei would have been promoted to general! The courtiers are here to congratulate the general! The two women deliberately put on a delicate demeanor, and their eyes kept throwing flattering glances at Wei Ling, and the corners of their little red eyes twitched.

For this blatant seduction, Xiaohong is extremely shameless. "Master. They're too ...... Shameless! ”

Compared with Xiaohong's anger, Huo Mei only smiled slightly, and for Wei Taishou's two daughters. Wei Ling didn't have the slightest interest, but looked at them and frowned.

"Thank you for the compliments of the two young ladies, Wei Ling is today, and it is the result of the concerted efforts of the Wei family. I'm not alone! ”

Wei Ling had such a modest attitude. made these two young ladies have a little more affection for Wei Ling, so the two of them rushed directly towards Wei Ling, and as soon as they stretched out their hands, they wanted to hold Wei Ling's arm, not caring at all that there was a lively crowd at the gate of the city.

Gently taking two steps back, dodging the left and right attacks of these two Taishou daughters, Wei Ling looked at these two with a gloomy face, making these two women afraid to continue to approach. Wei Ling turned around and walked directly to the carriage, lifted the curtain, and helped Huo Mei down.

I saw a pregnant woman standing next to Wei Ling. Wei Taishou was also stunned for a moment, and a sly look flashed in his eyes. But it was soon replaced by a smiley face.

"General Wei, who is this?"

Huo Mei didn't squirm, she was slightly shorter, and gave Wei Taishou a salute.

"Concubine Huo Jun, I've seen Lord Taishou!"

claimed to be a concubine, and was protected by Wei Ling like this, even if Wei Taishou was dull, he could guess Huo Mei's identity, and as soon as he heard the surname Huo, Wei Taishou knew even more in his heart.

"It turned out to be Mrs. Wei, Weichen was snubbed, and he didn't know that Mrs. was in the army!" Huo Mei smiled faintly and didn't speak, while Wei Ling directly grabbed her waist and lowered her head and asked softly.

"Tired or not? If you're tired, I'll carry you in! Soft-spoken, it was like the iron-masked general just now, and Wei Taishou's two daughters were stunned.

"Who is this woman? How could she be with the general? "It's Wei Taishou's eldest daughter who is disrespectful, this girl is used to being domineering in Taishou's mansion, and when she sees that the man she likes is occupied by a pregnant woman, she is naturally uncomfortable.

"Gui'er, Hugh is rude! This is Mrs. Wei, General Wei's wife, how can you be presumptuous in front of Mrs. Wei! Wei Gui'er, who was reprimanded by Wei Taishou, turned pale, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Wei Taishou, but looked at Huo Mei with resentful eyes from time to time, as if she was going to eat Huo Mei alive.

"Lord Taishou, the contemptible lady is unwell and can't stand for a long time, forgive the minister for being rude!" After saying that, Wei Ling didn't look at Wei Taishou and his two superb daughters, bent down and picked Huo Mei up horizontally, and walked into the city gate.

Being hugged by Wei Ling in front of so many people, Huo Mei blushed, "I'm not as delicate as you say, so many people are watching, you let me down!" ”

Wei Ling didn't seem to hear Huo Mei's words, and continued to carry Huo Mei inside, without hesitation at all. It wasn't until he came to the room specially prepared for Wei Ling in the Taishou Mansion that Wei Ling finally put Huo Mei on the bed.

"You lie down and rest, I'll go get some hot water to soak your feet first!"

After speaking, he was about to leave, and Huo Mei grabbed his sleeve helplessly.

"I'm fine, this is also Wei Taishou's place, you better go to the front hall and have a good chat with Wei Taishou! Business matters, don't let people take the handle for me! Wei Ling naturally knew what Huo Mei was referring to, Wei Taishou was jealous and narrow-minded, Huo Mei was worried, they left on the front foot, and this Wei Taishou was afraid that he would write a letter to the emperor to complain.

Liu Xun is suspicious, even if Wei Ling didn't do those things, as long as Wei Taishou said it, Liu Xun would be a little wary of Wei Ling, which is also what Huo Mei is most worried about.

You must know that the most difficult thing to deal with in this world is the villain, and Wei Taishou is the best among the villains. Following Huo Mei's advice, Wei Ling still went to the government to discuss some government affairs with Wei Taishou, Wei Ling was ready to rest here for two days before returning to Chang'an, but Wei Taishou didn't care much about what Wei Ling said, what he cared about now was the two anxious daughters who were hiding behind.

"The general is still in the court, His Majesty will definitely reuse the general, Weichen heard that the general's family is not prosperous, if the general does not dislike it, will Wei's two daughters be taken in?"

Wei Ling frowned when he heard this, looking at Wei Taishou's gaze was extremely cold, and Wei Taishou's figure was shocked, because Wei Ling's gaze was too sharp, which made Wei Taishou very uncomfortable.

"Thank you for being too good-willed, it's just that General Ben has made a heavy oath at the beginning of his marriage, and Wei Ling will not need to take concubines in this life! I will only like Mrs. alone with all my heart, so I am afraid that Lord Taishou's good will Wei Ling will be disappointed! ”

Do you need to take a concubine? There are still people who make such a poisonous oath, which makes Wei Taishou quite surprised, in today's officialdom, how can there be officials who do not accept concubines, even if it is a civilian, the people who live a little better will also accept two concubines, but this general said that he will not accept concubines in his life, how can this not make Wei Taishou surprised.

"The general is really temperamental, and he has such a deep friendship with his wife, Weichen really admires it! In fact, the little girl just admires the general and wants to accompany the general to serve around, the general doesn't have to feel pressure, they are all well-behaved children, and they still know how to be measured! ”

Wei Ling sneered in his heart, do you know how to be measured? dared to seduce Wei Ling on the street today, if this was to really ask for them, I don't know what the General's Mansion would be like by them?

Thinking of this, Wei Ling's smile narrowed. "Taishou's daughters are all golden branches and jade leaves, how can they be wronged, if Taishou intends to marry his daughter into Chang'an, Wei Ling can help Taishou find a good family!"

Anyway, no matter what Wei Taishou said, Wei Ling just didn't want his daughter, which made Wei Taishou very faceless, he pulled down his face and begged, this Wei Ling was still indifferent, how could this not make Wei Taishou angry.

After discussing political affairs, Wei Ling went back to his residence, and not long after Xiaohong helped Huo Mei take a bath, Huo Mei fell asleep, so when Wei Ling came in, Xiaohong was lightly preparing to exit the room, and when she saw Wei Ling coming in, she put her finger on her mouth and motioned for Wei Ling to be lighter.

Wei Ling nodded, first went to the bed to look at the sleeping Huo Mei, and then retreated to the door and instructed Xiaohong.

"You go and prepare some meals for Mei'er first, she can't eat and sleep well these days, she must be tired, let her sleep well, and wait for her to wake up and eat!"

Xiaohong went out in response, and Wei Ling walked behind the screen on the side, hurriedly took a brief bath in the bathtub, and then changed into a clean middle coat and walked to the bed.

Lifted the quilt and lay down, reached out to hold Huo Mei in his arms, patted her arm gently, and looked at Huo Mei's sleeping face with pampering/doting in his eyes for a long time, before he accompanied her to sleep. (To be continued......)
