Chapter 112: Digging a Pit
Boss Zhe's riding skills are really not blown, Fang Zhongyong and his party just came out of the West Water Gate, and they saw Boss Zhe chasing after them.
came together, and there were a few strong men with big shoulders and round waists.
The leader is also an acquaintance, Chen Lin's henchman Dou Shouzhi, and his official position on the surface is the internal worship official - a position with unknown authority, and in private he is the small leader of the secret agent. Of course, they also have another title, the military eunuch. Although I haven't practiced the Sunflower Treasure Book, it's also very neat to kill people.
With the consistent style of a yin person like Chen Lin, how can you rest assured if you don't send a few people to stare at the expatriate officers?
Dou Shouzhi was very polite, and said: "The slave maid was ordered by Gonggong Chen to accompany the adults out of Beijing for disaster relief. If there is anything inconvenient for the adults to come forward, just leave it to the slave and maid to do it. Make sure they are convinced, and there will be no consequences. ”
Believe in your wickedness! If Lao Tzu really has anything out of the ordinary, I'm afraid you will be the first to kill Lao Tzu!
Fang Zhongyong said: "In this way, there will be Lao Dou's father-in-law." ”
Dou Shouzhi is also a sensible person, and hurriedly said: "Just call the slave and the maid Xiao Douzi, but you don't dare to be the title of an adult." ”
In his heart, he complained wildly: I heard that this Lord Fang is ruthless, but don't accidentally be accidentally killed by him, you have to respect it well!
The boss and others, who had a strong male hormone secretion and were a little redundant, looked down on this group of eggless things, and joked: "The gentlemen of the Inner Servant Province can also ride horses?" ”
Dou Shouzhi said proudly: "Whether it's a gentleman or not, it doesn't all depend on whether there are eggs or not." If it's a gutless rat, no matter how vigorous the hair is, it's just a hairy beast. ”
Yo, this is the rhythm of the battle! Cut him!
The forbidden soldiers all pulled out their waist knives and surrounded Dou Shouzhi and the others. Where have these military eunuchs suffered, they also confronted each other with their blades.
Fang Zhongyong shouted: "I want to rebel!" What kind of ability is it to aim a knife at one's own person, and he has the ability to take off the head of Yelu Zongzhen. If there is anyone who dares to show his sword in front of his own officials, die!
Father-in-law Dou, I know that you have another task, this is the practice of the imperial court, and this official will not mind. But just do your duty, and don't question the official's arrangement. ”
Dou Shouzhi didn't dare to speak.
The forbidden soldiers saw that their marshal had given themselves a long face, and shouted: "The marshal is mighty!" ”
Fang Zhongyong turned his head and changed his face: "Mighty fart!" With you guys who know how to cause trouble, can you be mighty? Before he left Beijing, he offended the people in the palace. Besides, what Dou Gonggong said is also right, do you have to rely on your ability to speak. The official has a brocade robe, and those who arrive in Zhengzhou first can wear it. Which of you has the ability to wear it? ”
Dou Shouzhi laughed and said: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't prepare winter clothes." For the kindness of the adults, the slave and maid thanked me in advance! After saying that, he grabbed the war horse between his legs and rushed straight out.
Boss Zhe said angrily: "These eggless things are insidious!" Brothers, you can't be looked down upon! Come on! He also led the people to chase after him in a hurry.
Di Qing sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and was unmoved.
Fang Zhongyong asked, "Why don't you go?" ”
"In the end, I think it's more important to follow the adults."
There's a future! Just fold the goods like the boss, and throw the main general aside on impulse, and no general will promote him! If you want to be promoted, let's go in the next life!
However, these veteran ruffians still have the ability. It's not like those recruits who only play stirrups and other tricks on their horses, and they don't have any superfluous movements, and their bodies seem to grow on the back of horses, undulating with the horses. It's like he's not riding a horse, but like a horse galloping consciously, the so-called unity of man and horse. It doesn't seem to be brilliant, but it's not slow at all.
Of course, looking at the boss and a few guys, Fang Zhongyong preferred to call them "Remy Martin".
Kaifeng to Zhengzhou for more than 200 miles, by no means a war horse can be reached in a sprint. Dou Shouzhi took the lead at the beginning and took a lead, but as the horse's physical strength declined, the opportunity gradually disappeared.
At this time, the "Remy Martin" began to show their advantages.
Anyone who has ever run a long distance knows that a person who sprints hard at the beginning will not win in the end. Dou Shouzhi unsurprisingly failed, but he was also convinced.
Although the boss picked up the trophy, uh no, the brocade robe, he was no longer as arrogant as before, thinking that the father-in-law would only be the color of the orchid.
Fang Zhongyong said with great satisfaction: "This is a long time, and the affairs are complicated, and we need to work together to save the people in danger." If there are any more half-hearted people in the future, don't blame the official for being ruthless! ”
Boss Zhe smiled and said: "The big man is right, I don't talk long, and I ask Dou Gonggong not to be like me." ”
Dou Shouzhi said: "The prestige of the heroes of the forbidden army is really not blown, and our family admires it." Defeated today, I only have to wait for the next day to go to the battlefield, and see who kills more thieves and then talk about heroes. It's just that the slaves and maids don't understand something, our horses are better than the forbidden army, why are we still defeated today? ”
Fang Zhongyong knew the answer, for such a thing as riding, teaching by words and deeds alone would not make much difference, only by relying on one's own tempering. Whoever grinds for a long time is a master.
Take Fang Zhongyong's personal experience.
A day later, there was a bleeding blister between the crotch.
Two days later, there are blood blisters on the scar.
After three days, there were no blood blisters in sight, only a patch of blood.
The most uncomfortable thing is Gongsun Ce, the carriage has never been on a few times, where can he stand the bumps on the horse's back.
Isn't it beautiful to say poetry every day, why bother to suffer this living sin? If it wears out the little grandson, causing the grandson to have no queen, Fang Zhongyong will be guilty!
Fang Zhongyong persuaded: "Hongxuan, a scholar, has suffered with this official!" Li Er is vulgar, and there will inevitably be omissions in handling matters, you can go to Xijing to take charge of relevant matters, and then ask Lord Qian Weiyan to send soldiers and horses to escort you, and you can accompany you all the way. ”
Gongsun Ce was very ashamed: "It's all useless and it drags down the trip."
Fang Zhongyong said: "I didn't think about it, and I didn't think about whether Hongxuan's body could adapt to long-distance running. To tell you the truth, my crotch is also a mess, and it is miserable! ”
Gongsun Ce persuaded: "Since the adults are also very hard, it is better to go to Xijing to rest for a while." The students heard that Master Qian liked to make friends with young Junyan the most, and Ouyang Xiu, Yin Zhu and others often regarded him as confidants. ”
Fang Zhongyong smiled bitterly: "Where is the time to see this old man, you go and apologize on my behalf!" Just say that the situation is urgent, please help, and he will be grateful in the future. ”
The heartless thing of the boss said with a smile: "Don't worry, the handsome man is the same when he first started riding a horse." Grinding, grinding, it's good to get used to it, it doesn't have a big impact. ”
That's right, the Northern Liao people rode on horses all day long, and they didn't see them looking for those old military doctors to treat the unspeakable secrets, probably it didn't have any effect.
No matter what, it's important to save people.
On the afternoon of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the group finally arrived in Xinzhou, and they were already temperless. All of them are gray-headed, sleepy and tired.
I wanted to find a place to rest, but I saw broken walls and ruins, and mourning was everywhere.
Although it is the Chinese New Year's Eve, there is no festive atmosphere. There were only a few ignorant children playing on the side of the road, all dressed in tatters, and they could barely see their eyebrows.
Fang Zhongyong fought hard and arranged for the flag officer to put on a guard of honor, and showed the official certificate and seal the letter to the ancestor Baishi who came to greet him.
Only then did Zu Baishi salute and said: "Xiaguan Xinzhou, Zhizhou Zu Baishi and others will see the appeasement envoy." Adults have worked hard all the way! Please take a break at the museum! ”
Fang Zhong Yongqi said: "Is there still a pavilion that has not been destroyed?" Why not resettle the victims? ”
Zu Baishi hung his shoulders and said, "I'm not afraid of adults being surprised." The so-called pavilion is actually just a broken temple, I have simply repaired it, but it doesn't hurt to stay temporarily. As for the victims, because of the large number of people, they really can't afford to resettle them! ”
"It doesn't matter if the conditions are worse, we didn't come here to enjoy happiness in the first place. Lord Zu, what about the casualties in Xinzhou this time? What's the difficulty? ”
Zu Baishi sighed and said: "A total of more than 20,000 people were killed and wounded, countless houses collapsed, and the loss of money, grain, and livestock was incalculable. There is still some food, but what is most lacking at the moment is clothing to keep out the cold and medicinal materials to heal the wounded. ”
Fang Zhongyong's face turned red and said, "This official came in a hurry, and he didn't bring clothes or herbs. Seeing the disappointed expressions on the faces of the officials in Xinzhou, they hurriedly said: "The official family has instructed Xijing to prepare a supply that will arrive in a few days, and please wait patiently." As for the problem of keeping the people warm in front of him, the official has thought of a way, I don't know if there are people living in caves here? ”
Caves? Isn't it just digging a hole in the soil and living in it like a rat? Everyone is a Sven, how can they understand this?
Di Qing said: "Lord Qiyu, the last general knows about the cave. The last general's hometown of Fenhe is not far from here. If there are those who can't afford to buy brick houses, they often dig holes and live there. Later, people liked that the cave was warm in winter and cool in summer, so they dug the cave bigger and bigger, and the more they dug it, the better. A spacious cave can have more than a dozen rooms and can accommodate 100 people. But according to what the last general saw along the way, there were many people destroying the caves, and it was not safe to live in them! ”
There was a sneer from behind the people in Xinzhou: "You think that digging a cave is simply digging a hole, it almost takes more than a month, and some of the better ones take half a year." I'm afraid that if the adult's cave is dug, the people will already freeze to death. It's really Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road! ”
When the boss heard this, the dog shouted angrily: "Who is there to fart and be tired of being crooked?" ”
Zu Baishi explained: "Your Excellency! The one who spoke was a down-and-out talent, who sighed all day long, and who was stupid when he reads books on weekdays, so he doesn't have to be as knowledgeable as him. The adult's words were very appropriate, and the lower officials organized craftsmen to dig caves and resettle the victims. ”
Fang Zhongyong glared at the boss and scolded in a low voice: "You are such a big official, if you don't know, you think you are a pacification envoy." Then he turned to Zu Baishi and said, "Although the words are ugly, the reason is good. The officer has an expedient solution to the problem of housing for the victims of the disaster. The bearded gentleman, have you ever dug a hole? ”
Boss Zhe attached to Fang Zhongyong's ear and sneered: "The handsome man has good means, we have done this in the army before." He wants to dig his own pit and bury himself. ”
Fang Zhongyong raised his leg and kicked: "Get out of the way!" If you dare to talk nonsense again, you will be punished for washing the feet of the soldiers. ”
