Chapter One Hundred and One
Seeing that Bai Anheng was so knowledgeable and polite, Wu Qiran's face looked better, and he said to him: "It's nothing, I haven't expected to touch the military power again since I returned to Beijing." This time, since His Highness has spoken, the place you went to is close to the border pass, and they have been following me all these years and have no way out......" he said, turning his head to look at the two people sitting beside him, with a trace of indescribable sadness in his eyes, "Let them go with you, there can still be hope." β
The two of them didn't know whether they were happy or worried, and they both looked at Wu Qiran with trembling fists: "General......" The emperor now clearly does not plan to use Wu Qiran anymore, and can only be idle by his side.
Although this little white lord is a civil servant, but he is favored by the emperor, and even the fifth prince regards him as a confidant, now bow his head and help him for a few years, and after three or five years, the two of them may be able to return to the court. But the general ......
Jiang Zhe squinted his eyes, no one could see the look in his eyes, and he suddenly smiled at this time, and held the wine glass in front of him: "In this case, let's have a drink first, which can be regarded as seeing off the three adults." As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at Wu Qiran and smiled, looking as if he was frivolous, "I also wish Lord Wu a promotion and wealth, and every year is auspicious and years old...... Such as, will. β
Wu Qiran's face twitched again, and he looked at Jiang Zhe with a little surprise. This person is crazy and dares to say anything, dare to do anything, although he will also make people feel uncomfortable when he hurts people, but there are some words, but he will never say nonsense.
And what he said now......
The "ping pong" in his heart was dancing louder and louder, but he didn't dare to move a little on his face, picked up the cup in his hand and signaled to Jiang Zheyi, didn't speak, and took a sip.
He is not one of those civil servants who adjust his bookbag all day long, turn his brain, and play tricks, but since he returned to Beijing after winning the battle, he has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is not a fool, so he has naturally learned to ask some things, and some things must be learned to wait patiently.
Now that he has boarded the ship of the fifth prince, he can't say anything, so he has to count on him. Now it seems that this time it was not wrong to send these two people to Bai Anheng!
The sound of firecrackers began, and the year old passed, and the year old came.
Han Yu was busy at the end of the first year, and he didn't think about it until the beginning of the year - it won't work if he doesn't smoke, he has to go to his relatives for the New Year, and some news can't be thought of.
She also got another news when she went to relatives - this year's snow is too heavy, and several places such as Lanzhou, Dexian County in the northwest have all suffered snow disasters. Even in the Hexian County where Bai Anheng was about to go, I heard that many farmers' livestock had frozen to death in the first year, but it was not as nervous as in Dexian County, where many houses had collapsed and countless people were killed and injured.
Hexian County is next to Dexian County, and Han Yu only felt after hearing the news...... Could it be that the emperor asked Bai Anheng to go to the disaster relief?
Although it is not hit, it is not far away. Anyway, when the first month of the new year came out, when the group set off in early February, Bai Anheng not only took his own convoy, but also pressed a large team of grain, grass and other things on the road.
The convoy was lined up on the road, and Han Xiao occasionally opened the curtain to look back and forth, but he couldn't see the head at a glance. Fortunately, such a large group of people went out of Beijing on the road, no matter how remote the road was, no one dared to fight the idea of such a team with officers and soldiers.
Although it was early spring in February, it was still very cold on the road. Han Xiao only felt that when he first left Beijing, the grass and trees in the capital had not yet sprouted and branched out quickly, but after walking for more than half a year, these flowers and trees on the road still did not mean to turn green.
No matter how good and comfortable the car is, the car can't be turned into a house. The daily bumps make people feel like they're about to fall apart. At first, I still had the heart to look at the scenery outside the car window, but after a long time, Han Xiao couldn't wait to just sleep all day, and when he woke up, it was time to rest and play at night.
Bai Anheng had to go out every morning to ride a horse with the convoy for more than an hour, one was to ride a slippery mount, and the other was to see if there was anything wrong with the front and rear of the convoy. He was accompanied by several officials who were ordered to go to Dexian and other places to sow grain and grass, and those few had to escort them all the way, just in case.
After riding, Bai Anheng returned to the front of his car, threw the reins to Fengmo, who was following the car, and got into the car with the curtain.
The car was burning with good silver bone charcoal, and Han Xiao was holding a tiger head hat made for Brother Shun in her hand, which was just halfway made, and she was sewing her eyes and nose on her head at this moment. Seeing Bai Anheng coming in, he hurriedly put his hat on the small table, and got up half-kneeling to pick up the cloak he had taken off.
"It's all loess all the way, but fortunately there is no strong wind at this time, and I heard that if you go into March, even if you are in the car, you can eat a belly of soil." Bai Anheng took off his cloak, sat down at the door of the car and took off his boots again.
Han Xiao smiled and waited aside with a wet towel, and when he saw him take off his shoes, he handed it to him: "After running for half a day, is it hot?" β
"Sort of, pour warm tea."
Han Xiao picked up the warm tea that had been put aside for a while, when he first went on the road a few days ago, he was going to drink herbal tea when he came back from riding a horse, and it was easy to persuade him, and these days he always prepared warm tea for him, so that he could drink it as soon as he came back.
After drinking three cups in one go, Bai Anheng breathed a sigh of relief, pulled her neckline, and was afraid that she would be smoked again by sweat, and she was afraid that something would make her go out for a while, but she was angry in vain.
Just as he was hesitating, Han Yu took the half-dried towel again, and said with a smile: "It's good to wipe your body, so that you don't have to be sticky and uncomfortable." β
There is also a screen on the car, which is not big, just like a kang screen. The two of them entered the back of the screen, Han Xiao wiped the sweat off his body, and Bai Anheng felt much more comfortable.
couldn't help but complained in a low voice: "In this hurry, you can't even take a bath, and when you get to the place, you have to soak it for a day." β
Han Xiaoshu laughed: "If you soak it for a day, won't it be like those dry goods from home - all of them have been sent?" β
"Laugh at your grandfather for becoming a white fat man?" Bai Anheng raised his hand to pinch her nose, and the two joked for a while, then simply pulled her into his arms and hugged her, letting her lean against her chest, "Cooking things for Brother Shun again?" Miss your son? β
The car is shaking, and then moving the needle and thread is eye-consuming and easy to hurt hands. I told her twice before, for fear that she would tie her hands again for a while? She was not allowed to make any more clothes for herselfβwhen she got to the place, if she had nothing to do, she could do any more needlework. But in the past two days, she has made clothes for Brother Shun again, which shows that she misses her son.
Sure enough, Han Xiao's face was a little melancholy, and he sighed lightly: "He is by his mother's side, and I know that my mother will be able to take care of her well." Needless to say, the clothes, shoes and socks on the body are also finely crafted. If I think of these little things, I'll want to make half of them......"
Since Brother Shun landed, he has never left his eyes for a day. Although Han Yu thought about his son, he knew that her husband was serious. And what do you want in Beijing? The school at home has already been made, wouldn't it be more beneficial to go back to enlighten him and study with a few uncles and brothers?
But just think about it, even if you do less? can't be by his side, it's not like I'm a mother.
With his hand gently patted on her shoulder, Bai Anheng comforted in a low voice: "Then when you get to the place in a few days, stop, and give him a brother or sister?" It also makes him no longer alone...... Hiss - pinch lightly! β
On the road from Beijing to Hexian, except for a section of the road in the middle that is full of loess, both sides are all muddy. There is no way, the heavy snowfall at the end of the first year and the beginning of this year has covered the ground thickly. It's just half-melted at this time, and it's not right that there is no muddy water on the road.
Bai Anheng also went from running for an hour every day in the early days, to only going out to ride a horse and turning around a short circle and then returning - as soon as people came back, they didn't dare to step on the shoes, and they had to change their shoes before entering the car. When people enter the car, their pants and coats are about to be changed, and they are all muddy spots.
ββββββββ
Seeing that he was about to enter the city, Han Yu heard Feng Mo, who was following the car in front, say that the city wall of Hexian County could already be seen outside, so he quietly opened a little curtain and looked out.
Far away was the city wall, too far away to see a layer of snow on top of the gray and whiteβjust like the wilderness on both sides of the road, the snow had not yet melted.
Some of the grains and grasses were left to be pulled out to Hexian, and the rest of the carriages and horses stopped for a day, and they had to set off early tomorrow morning to continue to the northwest.
When the convoy arrived at the gate of the city, there were already officials of all sizes who had come to greet Bai Anheng on the scene, standing on both sides one by one, and entering the city with Bai Anheng's guard of honor.
In front and outside, Bai Anheng took care of him, and Han Yu had already changed his clothes, sat in the car and waited to arrive at the county mansion. Along the way, the roads on both sides were cleared, not only to welcome the newly appointed parent official, but also because this time the army that had been given food and grass was also escorted by the two kings, and they were to rest here for a day.
An official from a province who came to welcome the new county order had already inquired, and this Lord Bai was the champion of this department, and he was very liked by the emperor. This time, he didn't say anything about sending him here, but also proudly asked him to come with grain, grass and other things, which can be regarded as the emperor's change of law to give him face.
The courtiers that the emperor likes, and the officials below him, no matter what they think in their hearts, have to give a little bit of thin noodles. And many old fritters are estimated - this adult will only stay here for three years at most, and he will go back after a circle. Everyone can get along with each other, you and I can get by, if you take a step and he takes a step back, won't the road be easy to go? To whom is face not given? After three years of mixing with the amiable ones, they are doing well with each other.
