"Brother Liu, Brother Wan, I'm tired."

Liu Kaishan and Wanyifu hurriedly returned the salute, and they didn't even dare to say it. Li Luo immediately ordered Qian Yi to go and give the order, and the army set off immediately, but he didn't want to stay for a moment.

"General, please slow." Pang Wanci saw that the army was showing signs of moving, so she said that she would leave, and hurriedly shouted.

"Is there anything else with Mrs. Cheng?" Li Luo looked at Pang Wanci in surprise.

"I see that the generals under the command of the general are all light horses and simple clothes, and there should not be much dry food, and there is still some surplus food in the city, if the general does not dislike it, please take it, if it falls into their hands, these grass sea thieves will be cheapened for nothing." Pang Wanci said hatefully.

Li Luo secretly praised, this county magistrate is not very old, but her eyesight is not weak, and there is indeed not much grain and grass in the camp. Li Luo thought about it for a while, and was not polite, and said loudly: "Take enough for the people in the city, please lend me the remaining surplus food, and I will return it in the future." ”

"No need, although Xiuchuan County is not famous, it has never starved to death." Pang Wanci said proudly.

Li Luo smiled warmly, Pang Wanci's move was no less than to solve the urgent need of the Northern Expedition army, thanked him, and ordered Yingfeng to go to the order, Yuan Jun led the soldiers to get food, and it must be enough for the people.

The people of Xiuchuan City have rarely seen such a polite and polite Dagan official, and he is also a young general, Pang Wanci's husband is one, and there is another one in front of him.

Pang Wanci summoned Li'er and another citizen of the city, and took Yuan Jun's soldiers into the city to get food. Pang Wanci's prestige is very high, seeing that Li Luoxing is in a hurry, he did not discuss with others, and made his own decisions, and there was no shortage of people muttering to themselves about the act of giving food, but no one was resentful, and the young general also said that he would pay it back.

Li Luo must be sure in his heart that with food, at least the army's heart can be more stable. If you can't even eat enough, it is simply unreasonable to rely on the reputation of the coach to unite the hearts of the army.

"Do you have pen and paper?"

"What does the general want pen and paper for?"

"Based on the word, how much grain you borrow today, you will have to pay it back tomorrow."

"Ah, the general is too worried, I really don't need to."

"I want to pay it back." Li Luo said loudly, and there was an undoubted meaning in his words.

Pang Wanci froze, bit her lip, and excused: "I can't find a pen and paper for this meeting." ”

"Didn't Lao Xiucai take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone with him wherever he went, just look for him." Someone responded casually, and Pang Wanci glared at the villagers who spoke angrily.

Li Luo laughed and said, "Very good, but this old gentleman? ”

The old man surnamed Qi quietly moved to the side since Li Luo rescued him, and did not speak again except for persuading Pang Wanci, and he was very quiet. It's just that the people guarding the city didn't notice the abnormality of the old man surnamed Qi, and they didn't remember it until Li Luo came to borrow pen and ink.

The old man surnamed Qi shrunk his neck and muttered: "It's time to lose your head in the war, who will carry pen, ink, paper, inkstone, pedantic." ”

"Hehe, old Xiucai, aren't you talking about yourself? You sleep in the thatched hut with your few things, I'm afraid you don't plan to bring them into the coffin, will you not bring them with you at this time? The devil believes it. ”

The old man surnamed Qi blushed, and shouted with a thick neck: "If you don't believe it, you can't stand up, if you don't believe it, you people can't do it, what nonsense are you people talking about!" ”

The old man surnamed Qi said it well, but it was a pity that the appearance of covering the front of his shirt as if he was dying, but it also exposed the truth, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that the villagers said must have been brought on the old man surnamed Qi. Pang Wanci secretly glanced at Li Luo, and saw Li Luo looking at the old man surnamed Qi with a strange expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

Pang Wanci coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: "Old Mr. Qi, since you have it on you, let's lend it to the general." ”

The old man surnamed Qi stretched his face and was silent for a moment, then he reluctantly took out a few things from his arms, handed them to Li Luo, and said in a mean voice: "You can be careful, don't break the old things." ”

Li Luo received it in his hand, the pen is a silver fox pen, the ink is crane ink, the inkstone is a rain mountain inkstone, and only the paper is ordinary. It is indeed surprising that these things appeared in a poor and sour old man. However, although the thing is extraordinary, it is very ordinary in Li Luo's eyes. If there is anything different, it is about these things that make the old man play with the black and bright, and at first glance it is an antiquity of the old age.

The pen inkstone can be worth some silver taels, and the old man surnamed Qi has fallen into such a field today but still treasures these two things, which must be the old man's beloved things, and he is reluctant to have a moment of separation.

Li Luo didn't make fun of the old man surnamed Qi, and looked at the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in his hand with a flat expression. Yushan inkstone is a good stone jade, there is a cool feeling in the hand, the back seems to be a little rough, Li Luo did not turn it over to take a closer look, his fingers brushed it gently, it should be carved a word, word.

The old man surnamed Qi was afraid that his treasure would be bad in Li Luo's hands, and he stared at it with a painful face, which made people laugh. Pang Wanci smiled but did not speak, and called someone to bring some clear water and personally study ink for Li Luo. Maybe he was mistaken, but when this Yushan inkstone was in Pang Wanci's hands, the tense face of the old man surnamed Qi eased slightly.

The pen and ink were ready, Li Luo waved it, wrote a letter of arrears, handed it to Pang Wanci, and said in a harmonious voice: "Mrs. Cheng, if Liangzhou is too peaceful in the future, or if you go to other places in Beifu, or Zhongfu, with this letter, you can go to the Yamen of the Tomb Zaifu to govern Su Neishi and the yamen can redeem the grain borrowed today. ”

Pang Wanci took the note, and couldn't help but feel nervous, the young general in front of him was so loud, but he looked so indifferent, it was definitely not a lie.

Li Luo handed back the pen and inkstone to the old man surnamed Qi, and the old man jumped up, cherishing the protection of a treasure in his arms, and his expression was comparable to that of an iron rooster that did not pull out a hair.

Li Luo smiled slightly and said, "Does the old gentleman deny me?" ”

The old man surnamed Qi froze, and everyone around him, including Pang Wanci, looked at Li Luo and the old man surnamed Qi in surprise. The old man surnamed Qi grinned, lowered his head and flattered and replied: "This, forgive the old man for his clumsiness, hey, maybe I've really seen the general, but the old man is old and his memory is not very good, this, this, let the old man think about it." ”

Li Luo said with a smile: "It's okay, forget it if you can't remember, maybe I remember it wrong." ”

Pang Wanci didn't take this small change to heart, and the people guarding the city also thought that Li Luo was wrong, and the old man surnamed Qi said this about putting gold on his face, so that he could use this name to deceive in the future.

Pang Wanci looked at the handwriting notes of Li Luo's book in a daze, and Mrs. Qi curiously probed over to take a few looks, her words were very ordinary, but the handwriting was very beautiful.
