Chapter 162: Everyday Snow Day
At the end of October of the 14th year of Liyang, Yanlin Tushan camp
Heavy snowfall
Yan Kui was dressed in a big hat, guarding the tent in the tent to see the new letter that the dark web had just sent from Qingyuan.
The content happened to be that Duanwangfu sent someone to send a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and Bai Qianyu opened the furnace to refine the Ten Perfections and Replenish the Essence Pill successfully, guaranteeing that Huang Wei'er's condition was very likely to be cured.
Because the alchemy time is not short, in order not to make Yan Kui anxious when waiting for the results, the dark web also deliberately pressed the date of sending the letter for one day, and after the results came out, the letters would be sent together for two days, saving Yan Kui the pain of worry.
In the account
Yan Kui read the letter, his eyes flashed, he was not only happy that his wife and children were protected, but also a little bitter smile and entanglement.
"Millennial Ganoderma lucidum, 100 miles to send medicine, this favor of Duanwangfu is too much."
To tell the truth, Yan Kui didn't expect that this matter would involve Duanwang, and when he first saw the content of the letter, he was quite surprised how Duanwangfu could know so much about Huang Weier's situation.
After thinking about it, I can only attribute this to the fact that the third prince has the intention to recruit himself, and then found out about Huang Weier, after all, the Yan Mansion asked doctors to buy medicine everywhere, and there was a lot of trouble, and there was no way to hide it from the outside world.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The rest of the matter is simple, Duanwang Mansion sent someone to give medicine and grace for hundreds of miles without Yan Kui himself, not only did he sell enough face to Yan Kui, but even blocked the opportunity to refuse.
The letter to Yan Kui on the dark web is clearly written that the steward sent by Duanwangfu to give medicine is in the name of Princess Duan, and the reason is also to admire Yan Kui and his wife for their deep affection, and when General Yan serves the court and can't get out, he helps out of morality.
Look, look at what people say, it's leaky and impeccable.
It is difficult for people to know your purpose, and it is difficult to have any disgust, and others cannot do anything about it.
"Tsk, there are capable people around King Duan."
Yan Kui sighed with emotion, and then others got the bookcase to the carbon basin, the weather was cold, and the brush and ink blocks became "iron and stone iron pens", Yan Kui warmed the bowl of water with fire chopsticks, melted the ink, and then dipped the ink with a semi-hard and not soft brush, and worked the bookcase.
He was writing a letter of thanks to King Duan, regardless of the purpose of the other party's rescue, but the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum family gave it in a real way, Yan Kui is not a kind person who does not return it, King Duan saved his wife and children, and he is very grateful to the other party.
Of course, it is impossible for Yan Kui to gamble on a family to serve Duanwang for the sake of a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, but it does not prevent him from showing closeness to Duanwang, or supporting Duanwang's party to a certain extent, or even helping.
To put it simply, at this moment, Yan Kui's attitude towards the battle for the crown prince, whether voluntary or involuntary, began to slowly shift from the initial neutral camp to the Duanwang Party.........
β¦β¦β¦β¦
About half a column after incense
Yan Kui put away his pen and rubbed his hands that were a little cold because of writing the letter, Yan Kui took the envelope and sealed it, thought about it, and called Guangshan.
"Send for this letter...... Send it to the general Guanduan Wang, and then leave a secret line for us to contact, no need to pick it out, just inform it. β
Originally, Yan Kui wanted to send the letter to Duanwang's Mansion in the capital, and then they handed it over to Duanwang, but after thinking about it, it was still too much, and people gave medicine, and he played these careful thoughts, which was not authentic.
Hearing that the object of the letter was Duanwang, Monk Guangshan's face became solemn, and the time he spent with Yan Kui was not short, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he knew that some things were powerful.
Putting the envelope into his arms first, Guangshan hesitated a little and said: "It's a big matter, do you want your subordinates to go there in person." β
"You're too conspicuous and easy to notice."
Yan Kui thought about it, shook his head and vetoed, Monk Guangshan is his personal guard, and in the eyes of outsiders, he is an absolute confidant, and sending him to deliver a letter is undoubtedly to inform the outside world that he has a leg with King Duan.
Although this is also the case, Yan Kui still doesn't want to show that he is too deeply involved with King Duan, it's not that he is ungrateful, it's just that Yan Kui simply wants to keep a low profile.
Guangshan touched his slippery head and smiled: "My subordinates understand." β
After Guangshan left, Yan Kui cleaned up the bookcase casually, leaned on the pot to bake the fire, the firelight exploded, and the occasional spark was reflected on his face, which corresponded to Yan Kui's relaxed and relieved expression.
Although he owes King Duan a big favor, and may even be pulled into the whirlpool of seizing the heir, but Huang Weier's matter can be regarded as a reassuring result, and Yan Kui can finally put it down after two months.
That night, Yan Kui snored like thunder, and slept comfortably for the first time since receiving the news of Huang Weier's condition.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The next day, Yan Kui walked out of the tent with a refreshed expression, and the guards wanted to fetch water for him to wash, but Yan Kui raised his hand to stop him, he grabbed a handful of snow, rubbed it in his hand, melted a little snow water, covered his face and cleared his mouth.
Poof.
Spit out the remnant snow in his mouth, Yan Kui shouted cool, and his already relaxed spirit was excited by the ice and snow, and he was even more excited.
Niu Zhan came from afar, and when he saw Yan Kui's actions, a smile appeared on his chubby face: "It seems that the general is in a good mood today, it's rare to see you so relaxed." β
As the saying goes, the face is born from the heart, Yan Kui has been thinking about his heart during this time, even if he deliberately shows a light wind, but the whole person still unconsciously gives others a sense of pressure, Niu Zhan, who gets along with him day and night, feels the most profoundly.
And today, Yan Kui unloaded the burden in his heart, his body and mind were transparent, although he just washed his face with snow, but the comfort of his gestures immediately made Niu Zhan, an old oilman, discover Yan Kui's mood change.
patting his face, which was a little red by the snow water, Yan Kui turned his head to look at Niu Zhan, who was wrapped like a dumpling, smiled dumbly, and teased.
"Lao Niu, you can't do it with bones, you're so afraid of cold, I'm afraid it's not kidney deficiency, I just happen to have a snake yang vine garden in my hand, I'll get you some supplements another day."
Men have the best face, Niu Zhan is no exception, and when he heard this, he blushed suddenly: "General, you can't ruin my old cow's reputation, just our body, I hugged a big fat son last year, and I wore a lot, I was born intolerant of cold." β
Yan Kui pursed his lips and said lightly: "Whatever you say, if you don't want it, I will save some, this snake yang vine is not cheap, and the good quality of the vine is gold." β
"Thank you for the kindness of the general, my old cow really doesn't need it."
Niu Zhan spoke for his body with righteousness, but when Yan Kui turned around to go to breakfast, this guy saw that there was no one left and right, and he came to Yan Kui's side with a fat face, and said a little embarrassed.
"That...... Ahem, general, can you give me some good quality on that snake yang vine, you don't need to send it, I'll buy it with silver, don't get me wrong, my old cow doesn't use this, but I have a few friends who are older...... This, hehe......"
Yan Kui glanced at Niu Zhan with slanted eyes, Lao Niu's trick of "making friends out of nothing" is very skillful.
Smacking his mouth, Yan Kui pointed out with some meaning in Niu Zhan's expectant eyes: "Listen to Guangshan, your subordinates got a few grouses before." β
Niu Zhan understood: "It's cold today, I'll tell you to stew a cup of grouse soup to warm your body." β
"Yes."
When the chicken soup arrived, Yan Kui no longer hung his appetite: "The next time I write a letter to my family, ask the family to bring you some high-quality products, you don't need to give the silver, say a word for me to your friend, and be modest." β
Niu Zhan smiled and pretended to be stupid: "I will definitely bring the general's words." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
exchanged the snake yang vine with an inch of gold and a vine for a cup of grouse soup worth less than one or two silver, Yan Kui undoubtedly did a "discounted business", but Yan Kui did not look unhappy at all.
On the contrary, after a meeting with Wagyu Zhan, his already good mood became more cheerful.
Money is just something outside the body, Yan Kui does not lack those few snake yang vines, but it is better to use them for his subordinates to give a little favor, and do not ask for Niu Zhanji's favor, as long as he can do errands with his heart and share more military affairs with him, this snake yang vine will not give a loss.
After having breakfast at the Wagyu Cattle Exhibition in the room, the two of them found that the snow had stopped in the middle of the night from the tent where the generals had dined.
When Niu Zhan saw that the snow had stopped, he wanted to call the soldiers to continue to build the camp, but was stopped by Yan Kui: "The snow is slippery, and the weather is cold, the brothers probably don't want to move, so don't force it."
Let me give you a day off today, and let you not work and practice today, except for the sentries on duty, so that everyone may rest for a while.
There are only two points, the first is not to leave the camp, and the second is that the troops have cleared the snow in the camp for me, otherwise it will be impossible to dry if it freezes. β
It is rare for Yan Kui, the boss, to open his mouth for a holiday, Niu Zhan naturally will not be a villain, he called a few heralds and passed on Yan Kui's words, and it didn't take long for the entire Tushan camp to sound the excited shouts of the soldiers.
Yan Kui, who heard the joyful shouts of the soldiers, smiled faintly, and was about to retire when a hundred households ran over with sweaty faces.
"General, there is a group of people from outside the camp, claiming to have been sent by King Jing, the fourth prince."
"King Jing?"
Yan Kui's eyebrows wrinkled into Sichuan characters, and for some reason, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Please come in."
"Yes."
The hundred households who reported the news left quickly.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Just half a column of incense in time
Yan Kui saw the person sent by King Jing in his big tent, a middle-aged fat man who was short and dundun.
"Xia Guanjing Wangfu Book Peng Ziyi, I have seen General Yan."
The official position of the palace book belongs to the palace chief Shi Si, and the grade is not high, only from the seventh grade, but no one will really regard it as a seven-grade petty official, with King Jing's current prestige in the court, the idle four or five grade officials do not dare to hold up in front of this Peng Dianshu.
Yan Kui was naturally no exception, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "It turned out to be Master Peng, so there is no need to be polite." β
Then, Yan Kui instructed Guangshan, who was guarding next to him, to invite Peng Ziyi to sit down, and after he was in place, the two exchanged a few words according to the clichΓ©, and Yan Kui took the initiative to ask: "I don't know what Lord Peng came to find Yan this time, what is the so-called matter." β
Peng Ziyi smiled, and the flesh on his cheeks trembled slightly: "The lower official was ordered by King Jing to specially send medicine to the general." β
Combined with the previous Duanwang sending medicine, Yan Kui still didn't understand what was going on, and his heart was clear, and a faint wry smile flashed in his eyes.
How can I be so "favored" by the two princes, I am tired.........
