Chapter 92: Throwing Yourself into the Net
"Daddy, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Ruolan hurriedly came to the hall when she heard the news, and saw that her father and the others were all embarrassed, and Lang Zhong of the cottage was squatting on the ground to bandage her father's feet, and she was immediately stupefied.
"Lan'er, what are you doing here? Go back quickly. Liu Xiaotian leaned back on the tiger skin chair, panting, and waved his hand.
"Daddy, what the hell is going on?"
Liu Ruolan hurriedly came to his side, squatted down to check his injuries, and tears burst out of her eyes instantly.
"Lan'er don't worry, it's okay for her father, it's just a little injury."
Liu Xiaotian hurriedly pulled her up, patted her arm, squeezed out a smile, and comforted.
Then let everyone retreat, and then sighed.
"Hey! Daddy is really old..."
After explaining today's war, Liu Xiaotian's face was also a look of defeat, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old.
Although the cottage left five hundred people to watch the house, the real elite were taken away by him, and now only nearly 100 people have returned.
Especially the more than 50 cavalry, which is the killer weapon of the cottage, and now there are only more than ten horsemen left, and most of the war horses are injured and scrapped.
The reason why he took the risk to take in Hongying and accepted her as a righteous daughter was that he took a fancy to her equestrian skills and horse skills, so he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy more than 50 war horses and let her form a cavalry.
And for more than a year, with more than 50 cavalry, his Wufeng Village is indeed powerful, no one dares to provoke, who would have thought, but today he was defeated by a group of hairy children and croppers.
After Liu Ruolan listened, the whole person was stunned, except for her sister, her father was the most powerful in her mind, and now he was defeated by that little Hua Wang.
"Daddy, let's get my sister back!"
"Lan'er, don't be afraid, although Daddy has lost the battle and his strength has been greatly damaged, that kid Liang doesn't dare to make a mistake."
After speaking, he sighed: "Hey! Daddy originally wanted to recruit that kid as a son-in-law, but now he has formed a mortal enemy, it is impossible, you can't look down on any of the heroes who came this time, that Yang Xian's nephew has always been obsessed with you, and he looks like a talent, and his performance is okay for a while, so his father plans to recruit him to come to the door and hand over this inheritance to him..."
"Daddy, even if my daughter dies, I won't marry a despicable villain like him." Liu Ruolan bit her lip and said, obviously Hongying told her about that night.
"But my father is old, you have to marry someone after all, and the cottage can't be without a principal in the future!"
"Isn't there a sister? You can call her back! Liu Ruolan hugged his arm and said expectantly.
"Don't mention her to me!"
Liu Xiaotian was furious, and when he saw that his daughter was scared, he slowed down his tone and said: "You don't want to marry him, but you have to choose one, I'm afraid to be a father... Ahem..."
"Daddy..."
Liu Ruolan saw that the wrinkles on his forehead were deeper than before, and his temples were whiter, only then did she realize that the burly father who carried him on his shoulders when he was a child was really old, and threw himself into his arms, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
Finally, he took a deep breath, raised his head and said, "Daddy, let's marry my daughter to the master of Li Zhai in Shuizhai that day!" ”
"What? Absolutely not, how can Li Meng's vulgar fool be worthy of my daughter? ”
"Daddy, now the strength of the cottage has been greatly damaged, that day the water village soldiers are strong and strong, second only to our Wufeng Village, if the daughter marries, the two families can merge, and Daddy will not have to worry about it in the future."
"But..."
Liu Xiaotian also knew that it was the best choice to marry Tianshuizhai now, but looking at his daughter like a flower, he really couldn't make up his mind to marry her to the black pig.
"Daddy has loved his daughter since she was a child, no matter what her daughter wants, in the end Daddy will try her best to get it, and now that her daughter has grown up, she also wants to contribute to the cottage and Daddy, and I hope Daddy will be successful!" After Liu Ruolan finished speaking, she got up and knelt down with tears in her eyes.
"Hey! It seems that my Lan'er has really grown up, no matter what, although Li Meng is vulgar and much older than you, if you marry, he will definitely love you very much, and he will not let you be wronged in the future. ”
Liu Xiaotian looked at his daughter who usually spoke a little louder, and her eyes would be red, but this time her face was unusually stubborn, and after sighing with some relief, he helped her up.
Next.
Liu Xiaotian took more than a dozen horsemen to the county seat, preparing to report the war to Lu County, after all, he is now an official.
At the same time, see if you can replace the inspection of Blackstone Town with the inspection of the town near Wufeng Village.
Although he didn't win the battle and lost Blackstone Town, he gave Lu County Ling a full 10,000 taels of silver, and today he brought another 5,000 taels, so it should still be okay to come and change for an inspection.
In fact, he didn't care about a single inspection, but he wanted to get a serious background for his daughter and the old brothers in the cottage.
As long as they can wash away the bandit name on their bodies, in the future, their daughter and Li Meng can build a house at the foot of the mountain and buy a field.
In the future, the grandchildren can study and test for fame, and the old brothers can also take their families to farm and live a peaceful life.
But he never imagined that he would be taken down as soon as he entered the county office, and he was suddenly shocked: "Lord Lu, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Hmph, Liu Xiaotian, this official asks you, do you have a righteous daughter named Hongying?"
"Lord Hui, Lao Yu did accept a nominal daughter, but he had already expelled her from the cottage and severed the relationship." Liu Xiaotian was shocked and hurriedly replied.
"Smack! Do you know who that red warbler is? Lu Xianling was shocked.
"The old man only knew that she was originally a northerner, and she was exiled to the foot of Wufeng Mountain, and the old man saw that she was pitiful, so he took her in."
"Dare to quibble, the official will tell you who the red warbler is, her original name is Hong Luanying, and her father Hong Bo is the leader of the anti-thieves, last few years in the spring, their father and daughter assassinated the prince of Xiangwang in Xiangyang City, so that His Royal Highness the prince was seriously injured and disabled.
She is still catching her everywhere, who would have thought that you would be harbored in Wufeng Village, you are really bold, if this matter is known to the prince, even the official will be implicated. ”
After Lu Xian Ling finished speaking, he slapped the shocked wood again, his face was gloomy and scary, he knew that this Liu Xiaotian was so bold, he would never surrender at the beginning, and he couldn't afford to offend King Xiang.
It is rumored that Hong Luanying was at the beginning, but he kicked His Royal Highness the prince to bed for three months, but he has not been humane since then, which shows the anger in King Xiang's heart.
"My lord, I really don't know about it, and I hope your lord will see it." Liu Xiaotian really didn't know that Hongying had kicked that son of the world to cripple at the beginning, and he was a little anxious.
"Humph! The mud can't support the wall, the official thought that you were a person who knew how to advance and retreat, so he lifted you, who would have thought that you would harbor the invasion of the imperial court, and collude with the anti-thieves of the Black Mountain Village, and give the official a good show, is it really that the official is stupid and incompetent? ”
"My lord, where does this collusion and anti-thief acting begin?"
Liu Xiaotian saw that another big hat was buttoned down, and he really wanted to cry without tears.
"Hmph, don't quibble, the official asked you where is that Hongluan Ying now?"
"It's... I don't know. ”
"Good! This official sees that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, bring a witness! ”
Lu Xianling shouted.
Immediately, a young man and a short and thin man were led into the lobby.
