"Hui Ye, the envoy of the Tang Kingdom in the south, Situ Zhouzong has arrived, and he has just entered the pavilion and is settling down."

Li Zhongyi was about to go out to attend today's businessmen's conference, and Li Yanqing hurried over again to report the details of his father's arrival in the big and small weeks.

"Zhou Zong's entourage, the little ones have also figured it out, in addition to the two deputy envoys, there are also eight bewitching little ladies in the veil." Li Yanqing watched Li Zhongyi's face turn black rapidly, but he had to bite the bullet and continued, "There are as many as seventy or eighty boxes of gifts sent to the pavilion, and looking at the traces of ruts, eighty percent of them are very important for gold, silver, silk and other things. ”

"Hmph, Zhou Zonglao is confused, his daughter and Guben have a marriage contract...... Hmph...... "Just when Li Yanqing thought that Li Zhongyi was about to have a seizure, unexpectedly, Li Zhongyi suddenly laughed, "Hehe, Li Yanqing, tell me, Li Jing of the Southern Tang Dynasty only sent a Situ who had no real power as a courtesy envoy, this weight is not enough, right?" Isn't it disrespectful to Lonely? ”

"Of course that's disrespectful!" Li Yanqing not only immediately responded to Li Zhongyi's desire to add crimes, but also greatly increased the weight, "Since the rise of the Hechi army, the Lord has commanded the army to conquer everything, and the battle is invincible. Lord, you have thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, how can you allow the ministers of the lower states to be so rude? That Southern Tang Dynasty is just a small country, Li Jing dares to be so disrespectful to the lord of the Heavenly Empire, and he should crusade against him! ”

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, Li Yanqing is really a wonderful person, and his hard work is in vain. Li Zhongyi once said the original words, in fact, it is not allowed to let others sleep next to the couch, Li Yanqing did not dare to say this, changed it to be rude, which is even more interesting!

Under Li Yanqing's gaze, Li Zhongyi returned to the inner study, opened a secret box, and took out a letter that had been sealed a long time ago.

"This letter is very important, you send someone to send it to Dengzhou as soon as possible, and you must personally hand it over to the Admiral Zhao Laoqi, the commander of the water division, understand?" Li Zhongyi handed the letter to Li Yanqing's hand and told him repeatedly, "Hurry up a thousand miles." ”

Li Yanqing's fierce look, in the Li family's army, the urgent delivery of 800 miles is already the current limit speed of sending letters.

The so-called 800-mile expedited means that the knight who delivers the secret letter must rush to the military post 800 miles away in one day and deliver it to the final destination within a limited time.

There is no shortage of horses in the Li family's army at present, and it is a trivial matter to run and kill a few horses along the way, mainly because of the eager foot delivery knights who deliver letters.

However, this is the first time that Li Zhongyi has used a thousand miles of urgent delivery, even if Li Yanqing has not read the letter, he can guess that the Lord must secretly mobilize sailors to gather in the Jianghuai region and prepare to cross the river to crusade against the Southern Tang Dynasty!

After Li Yanqing left, Li Zhongyi ordered someone to call Peony, asked her to clean up, and waited in the carriage.

In the morning, the peony was mixed at the end of the women's pile, and after going with Li Zhongyi to meet Mrs. Li and Mrs. Xue, she took off her makeup as soon as she returned to her own house.

It's been many years, Peony's life is bleak, and she has been completely forgotten in a corner where no one cares, and she can only live alone and sad.

When Li Zhongyi's maidservant Xiaolu came to call for peony, she thought she had made a mistake, and asked hesitantly, "You're not mistaken, right?" Did you really call me to wait in the carriage? ”

Xiao Lu smiled lightly and said, "Look at what you said, the master's personal command, unless the little maid doesn't have a head, how dare she spread the word?" ”

"Oops...... I...... My makeup is off, what can I do, what should I do? Peony was immediately carried away by the sudden great joy, dancing with her hands, incoherent, and flustered.

Seeing the peony slipping to the edge of insanity step by step, Xiao Lu was worried about being unlucky and hanging up, so he hurriedly stepped forward, hugged the peony, shook it vigorously, and said loudly: "Lady, lady, the master said, he is not in a hurry, let you slowly groom up, dress up beautifully, and then go to serve ......"

Xiao Lu opened her eyes and said nonsense, but the peony woke up, and she hurriedly called the close maids, waiting for the face to be cleaned, dressed, and powdered.

Just when Peony was dressing up, Xiao Lu quickly ran back to Qiu Tong, she salivated and said: "Sister Qiu Tong, when the little sister went to pass on her life, Peony Lady even took off her makeup, I was afraid that my master would wait for a long time, and now I am in a hurry to catch fire......

Qiu Tong understood as soon as she heard it, Peony obviously thought that Li Zhongyi had forgotten her, but she didn't think that there would be a day when she would be close to serve a man.

"It's okay, my master's student Zuo Jiangming is here, and he is talking about things in the house." As soon as Qiu Tong finished speaking, Xiao Lu wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and made a grimace with his little fragrant tongue, "That's good, that's good." ”

Qiu Tong saw Xiao Lu's playful appearance, couldn't help but smile, raised his hand and pointed at her forehead, and said angrily: "Ye is not a man-eating tiger, as for being afraid of this?" ”

Xiao Lu grinned and said, "Sister Qiutong, my brother-in-law is hiding behind a tree and has been staring at you." Qiu Tong's sidekick is Xiao Lu, the two have always been close, and they often get together to make jokes about meat and vegetarian food.

Qiu Tong raised his hand and twisted the cheeks on Xiao Lu's face, and scolded angrily: "Little hoof, don't learn the good ones, learn the little tricks of deception, see if I don't tear your mouth?" She thought that Xiao Lu wanted to change the topic and deliberately deceive people.

"Sister Qiutong, let go, it hurts. I'm really not lying, my brother-in-law is watching you from under the tree. Xiao Lu was twisted and painful, and hurriedly pointed to the big tree in the courtyard.

Qiu Tong turned his head suspiciously, oops, Chu Xiong was really leaning against the big tree, staring at her with straight eyes and smirking, like a who had never seen a woman.

"I'm going to die." After all, Qiu Tong is a yellow flower virgin, and her face is very thin, her pretty face suddenly turned red, and she turned her back in a panic, not daring to look at Chu Xiong.

After Xiao Lu was let go, he immediately jumped a few steps away, and joked with Qiu Tong: "My brother-in-law is really in love with Sister Qiu Tong, and my eyes are almost bleeding, hehe......"

"Prodigal hoof, see that I don't tear your mouth apart." Qiu Tong was ashamed and embarrassed, so angry that his nose was crooked, and he rushed over to catch Xiao Lu.

Xiao Lu spread his legs and ran away from the distance, Qiu Tong couldn't catch up, and he was worried about disturbing Li Zhongyi in the house, so he had to stop his feet.

Chu Xiong, who was regarded as a nymphomaniac, saw Qiu Tong turn around, crossed his thin waist, and glared at him viciously.

Chu Xiong couldn't help but smile stupidly, and said in his heart, the lady is so good-looking when she is angry, no wonder his colleagues in the army say that his Yanfu is not shallow!

Of course, there are people with pink eye in all eras. Some people said sour things in private, ridiculing Chu Xiong once he married Qiu Tong, and from now on, he will have no worries about his career, and he will definitely soar and rise to the top.

Chu Xiong knew who said the sour words, but he didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of person, he wanted to marry Qiu Tong, just because he really liked her.

After Zhou Zong arrived at the pavilion, as soon as he picked up the teacup, he saw the servant running in in a panic and reported, "Back to Situ, something is wrong, a large number of soldiers and horses of the Tiqi Division suddenly came outside the official post, and we have surrounded us here." ”

"Bang dang!" The piercing cracking sound of porcelain falling to the ground broke the peace of the room, and then set off a stormy wave!
