Chapter 30: A war of words

Jia Zhenxuan stood up and reached out to pat his father's shoulder and said, "Mother will be handed over to you, I will write a letter to my father." Let's go, take care! With a wave of his hand, he resolutely left his hometown.

Jia Yihan sighed and said, "My son can't help it, let him go!" Wife, Ling Lang is gone, let's go downstairs to eat! ”

When did Zhang Bixue, who was standing behind him downstairs, reach out and touch Jia Yihan's back and said: "Da Linglang ran away from home, according to my feeling, he will no longer go home, Xiao Linglang is still studying, Ling Ai will marry sooner or later, the lively home is deserted all of a sudden, I am not used to it." You also know that I love Da Linglang alone, and now Da Linglang has abandoned me, and my heart has been taken away by him, I don't know how long I can live. Lang Jun, can you persuade him to come back? ”

Jia Yihan put his arm around Zhang Bixue's shoulders and said, "Good wife, you are sentimental, boys should go out for a while when they grow up, and staying at home all the time can't become a big climate." I listened to his tone last night, as if he was going to join some kind of team, and solve problems for the court while he was young. Since he has great ambitions and strong blood, we should support his ideals. Today's world is not very peaceful, the eunuch dictatorship is rampant, the feudal towns are divided and set up their own small worlds, the civil and military generals are their masters, and the emperor is difficult to be! The country is in need of talents, and we should serve the imperial court if we have both civil and military skills! You have to relax and take care of your body and wait for Ling Lang to go home. Got it? ”

Zhang Bixue said sullenly: "Ling Lang said everything to you, but he didn't tell me the truth, and he said that he went to open a tailor shop in a nearby big city, but actually wanted to guard the frontier." ”

Jia Yihan comforted: "You are a woman, Ling Lang didn't tell you because he was afraid that you would worry about him." Because I run a cloth shop as a tailor, people come and go every day, and there is naturally a lot of news from the imperial court, so Ling Lang often asks me about the affairs of the imperial court, and knows that I also care about the affairs of the imperial court, so he tells me the truth without any scruples. ”

Zhang Bixue stared up at him and asked, "Then how is the situation in the imperial court now?" I've also heard a little, don't forget that my family background is not bad, my younger brother Zhang Runhou is a ranger general, brother-in-law Yu Wensi is also a thorn in the history of the adult, and there are two miles of relatives who are petty officials in the imperial court, there is some news, but you still hear a lot in the store, I also had breakfast, I have nothing to do this morning, you might as well talk to me about the affairs of the imperial court, okay? ”

Jia Yihan patted his wife's shoulder and said: "It's rare to be confused, it's good for you to take care of this family, there is no need to be frightened for Ling Lang inexplicably." The emperor just wants to set up a mysterious army to fight against the forces of the feudal town, and after Jia Zhenxuan received your brother's letter, he was distracted, and planned to gather a group of young people who were both civil and military to form a team to defend the country and do a great job to protect the family and defend the country. ”

"Oh, I see, I hope he is well in life."

Zhang Bixue saw that Jia Yihan had made a long shirt, hurriedly pulled his arm, and asked worriedly: "Did Jia Zhenxuan really decide to join any army?" What the hell do you do, do the security work by the emperor's side? Or go to Nanzhao, Tuqichi, Khitan, Tubo and other places to guard the frontier? ”

Jia Yihan shook his head and said, "How do you know the emperor's heart? I heard that the emperor wants to do something to rectify internal affairs, and this recruitment may be to strike at the power of the feudal town again and consolidate the power of the imperial court! Jia Zhenxuan went out to find Zhang Jianshuo today, and he didn't know what kind of army he joined until they met. Maybe it's the Shence Army, which has to defend all parts of the country and defend the palace. ”

Zhang Bixue frowned and said: "I once heard my younger brother say that there are ten armies in the palace, including the left and right Yulin, the left and right Longwu, the left and right Shenwu, the left and right Shence, and the left and right Shenwei, mainly to defend the palace, and what are the sixteen guards of the Southern Ya, I don't remember clearly, after Zhen Gong finds Zhang Jianshuo, will he go home once?" I'm so worried. ”

Jia Yihan smiled bitterly: "It's useless to worry." Zhen Gong not only knows martial arts, but also shoots, kneels, stomps, and is good at riding and shooting, Zhang Jianshuo also has eighteen kinds of martial arts, of course such a young man has to serve the imperial court! What can't you figure out? If the country is gone, we will not be at peace. If there is no hair in the skin, it will be attached. Just relax and wait for a letter from Zhen Gong! ”

"Well, that's all there is to it. It seems that the tax revenue of the imperial court has also increased, and the war is not good for the common people. ”

"As the saying goes, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and now the country is not peaceful, and the emperor is not reconciled, so he decided to rectify the forbidden army, recruit shrewd and capable young men from the people, and set up an independent army that is brave and good at fighting. Be patient! ”

"Oh, somebody's coming to buy fabric, I'm going to make lunch." Zhang Bixue said sullenly

"Oh, don't think about it, stretch your frowns." Jia Yihan waved his hand.

The person who stepped into the cloth shop to buy fabrics was Yu Wensi, and when he saw Jia Yihan busy making tailor's gown, he shouted loudly: "Tailor Jia, hello!" Look, you're very busy, I want to order thirty sets of old blue kaftan in your store, I don't know how many days will be done? ”

Jia Yihan was shocked when he heard this, thinking about what's wrong, Zhang Xiaofang ordered thirty sets. One set inside and outside, and Yu Thorn Shi also came to order thirty sets, what is it for, and who is it for?

Seeing that he frowned and didn't answer, Yuwen Si asked in surprise: "Tailor Jia, look at your confused face, didn't you hear me talk to you?" When a big deal of business comes, why not smile? ”

Jia Yihan smiled; "Yu Thorn Shi, I'm sorry, I was talking to my virtuous wife about the child just now, and I haven't come back to my senses yet, when will I get the thirty sets of cheongsam?"

Yu Wensi asked in surprise: "I heard that people in your shop often come to talk about the affairs of the imperial court, and there are characters from the three religions and nine ranks, maybe you know more about the affairs of the imperial court than I do." ”

Jia Yihan raised his hand and said, "Where?" I'm a businessman, how do I know about the court? If you'd like to, come in and sit down and have a good chat. ”

Yu Wensi stepped into the door of the store and sat at the counter, sighing and said: "Now I heard that the imperial court is going to form a special army, recruiting smart and capable young people from the people to guard the frontier and defend the palace. I wonder if you've heard of it? ”

Jia Yihan hesitated for a moment, stared at Yu Wensi and said solemnly: "I heard that a young man with strong martial arts and both wisdom and courage should serve the imperial court!" ”

"Well said, I heard that your family Linglang is quite good at martial arts, and he can ride and shoot, will he go to this special army this time?"

"He's out on business, and I don't know the truth yet. Now let's get down to business! May I ask what you are doing with 30 sets of old blue robes? My store is not big, and I don't know if the old blue fabric is enough to make 30 sets of kaftans, if it is not enough, can blue or black be replaced? How tall is the cheongsan worn by people of height, and is each suit the same length and width? ”

Yu Wensi hesitated for a moment, looked at Jia Yihan and said, "Our uncle-in-law Zhang Runhou is a ranger general, and now he is guarding the frontier in Nanzhao, so I won't hide it from you." It was General Zhang Runhou who sent a letter asking me to order thirty sets of old blue caftans in your store, no other colors, the same size of the caftan as long and wide, all for young people about eight feet tall to wear, about a month or so I came to pick up the clothes, the store has your Lingtang guard, you hurry up and take the time to buy it! ”

Jia Yihan asked in surprise: "Why didn't Zhang Runhou write directly to tell Zhang Bixue?" After all, it's a brother and sister, why do you want to make a trip? ”

Yu Wensi smiled and said: "This is a matter of the imperial court, it may not be convenient for him to tell you!" Who are these thirty sets of cheongsams for, the letter didn't tell me, you don't have to ask so much, hurry up and cut the fabric to make cheongsam, I should also go back to have something, thank you. A few pennies are calculated, and all the clothes will be paid to you when I pick them up, is it okay? ”

"Okay, you're busy, let's go back first, I'd better go into the fabric first." The store only has enough stock to make five kaftans. ”

"Then you can arrange it yourself, I will pick up the clothes in about forty days at the latest, don't forget the size. Good bye! ”

Jia Yihan smiled and said, "Lord Yu Thorn Shi, don't send it, please go slowly." ”

After Yuwensi went back, Jia Yihan hurriedly went to the dining hall to find Zhang Bixue, Bixue looked up and asked, "Lang Jun, is there anything urgent?" The meal wasn't ready. ”

"Just now, your brother-in-law Yu Wensi came to me to order thirty sets of old blue kaftans, and Zhang Xiaofang came to order thirty sets of black caftan at the beginning, are the two of them for the same thing? Yu Wensi said that it was your brother who asked him to do it, and he didn't say who he was wearing. Jia Yihan said worriedly.

Zhang Bixue hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "We are businessmen and we have money to make, and there are so many other questions." Hurry up and sew a cheongsam, I'll call you for dinner. In the afternoon, you go to buy, and I will come to the store to sew and help you get started. ”

"Well, I'll go back to the store then."

Jia Yihan returned to the counter, and suddenly saw Zhang Xiaoli choosing fabrics, and asked in surprise: "My father-in-law just left with the front foot, and my daughter-in-law arrived with the back foot, Mrs. Yuzhuxiao, what are you doing?" ”

Zhang Xiaoli asked impatiently, "Didn't you see that I was looking through the fabric?" What else can you do in your store besides making clothes? A businessman who asked knowingly. ”

Jia Yihan glared at her and asked solemnly: "The newlywed Yan'er should be full of smiles, why is it sullen, is it difficult to be the daughter-in-law of the assassin family?" ”

Zhang Xiaoli said angrily: "It's not difficult to be a daughter-in-law, it's your family's general who makes me angry, and when I get married, I will be widowed and angry, please come out of your Lingtang, I want to ask something." ”

Jia Yi said calmly: "Sensei is looking for my good wife, I just learned from your father-in-law's mouth, General Zhang Runhou wrote a letter to your father-in-law, the imperial court wants to recruit a mysterious army, does your father-in-law also want to participate?" My daughter-in-law is no exception. Hearing that Zhang Xiaofang, who had just gotten married, was gone, Wang Xiaohua was so anxious that he turned around. ”

Zhang Xiaoli was taken aback when she heard this, stared at Jia Yihan with wide eyes and asked, "Could it be that Zhang Xiaofang found out that she was a bride who had dropped her bag, and she had no choice but to run away from home silently." ”
