Chapter 361: Suspicion
Lu Li had just finished drinking the wound medicine that Bu Xun had specially prepared for himself, and now he was sitting and reading through the information that had been newly sent, Leng Buding An Xia Bai rushed into the camp tent and asked, he was a little surprised, and immediately stood up from his position: "Madam, what are you talking about, girl?" ”
Originally, when she saw the woman coming and going freely in Lu Li's tent, An Xiabai's mood was not very good, and when she heard Lu Li's puzzlement, her face became more and more ugly.
"When I first arrived, I saw a girl at the door."
Seeing that her face was gloomy and like rain was about to come, where did Lu Li dare to slack off, and after thinking about it carefully for a while, he realized that the girl An Xiabai said was the one who delivered the medicine just now.
God is pitiful, he only paid attention to looking at the military situation just now, and he didn't pay attention to who the person who delivered the medicine was, and he didn't even know whether the gender of the person was male or female.
Lu Li hurriedly hugged An Xiabai and shouted: "Madam, I just looked at the military information sent from other places, and I didn't notice who the person who came to deliver the medicine was, you said it was a girl, it may be Bu Xun's relatives, saying that her hometown was in trouble, and all the relatives in the family died in the war, so Bu Yan took her in, usually she was responsible for beating him around, just now, it is estimated that it was because Bu Xun was not available, so he came over to give me medicine." ”
This explanation is reasonable, but An Xiabai's psychology felt flustered for no reason.
Could it really be that woman just a refugee?
But it doesn't look like it......
was interrupted by this incident, but An Xiabai turned over what she originally wanted to say to Lu Li, a young man accosting herself, and it wasn't until dinner time that Ruqing came to talk to An Xiabai when she had nothing to do, and she didn't think of this stubble.
"Why is your face so ugly?" Ruqing has become more and more careful since she experienced the turmoil, and now just by glancing at it, she can see that An Xiabai has something in her heart.
"Didn't you quarrel with General Lu?"
An Xiabai shook his head with a complicated expression, thinking that Lu Li let himself do everything as much as possible, where would there be a quarrel?
Even if the two really quarrel, they won't pick this time.
"It's either a quarrel, or I don't know what's going on, and I've been restless lately." An Xiabai thought to herself that Ruqing had been living in the barracks with Shen Ya for a while, maybe she was more familiar with what was happening in the barracks than herself, so she wanted to inquire with her about the news, "Ruqing, have you noticed that there is an extra girl in the barracks recently, claiming to be a relative of Bu Yan, and she is still helping under him?" The girl was so tall, and she stood out in terms of appearance and stature. ”
As soon as An Xiabai described it, Ruqing remembered.
"I know her!"
Ruqing glanced at An Xiabai, as if she was hesitating about something, and spoke after a long while: "Actually, I don't want to tell you about this matter." ”
It turned out that Ruqing discovered Lu Shu'er's existence earlier than An Xiabai.
When she first arrived at the barracks, Bu Xun explained to the soldiers the relationship between this woman and herself, there are not many women in the barracks, let alone a good-looking woman like Lu Shuer? The entire military camp can be compared with An Xiabai, but An Xiabai is the general's wife, even if she borrows hundreds of courage from those soldiers, they don't dare to look at An Xiabai more, so this Lu girl has become the object of their attention.
"Actually, the main reason why I remember her is because she is very wrong," Ruqing said with a solemn face, "The person who was supposed to deliver medicine to the general was another doctor in the army, but this Lu girl didn't know what was going on, and as soon as she came over, she snatched the errand, and later when I paid more attention to her, I also found that she always likes to appear in the places where the general often passes, and at a glance, I know that this person has a ghost in his heart!" ”
What troubled Ruqing the most was that Lu Li didn't seem to care much about the existence of this girl.
Before Ruqing said that she didn't want to mention this matter to An Xiabai, it was also because of Lu Li's attitude, she was afraid that An Xiabai would be sad.
"The general doesn't care, not because he likes it, but because he hasn't noticed," there is no second person in the world who knows Lu Li better than An Xiabai, so she naturally said the reason, "The general is so busy on weekdays, where can he have time to pay attention to such a girl....."
Ruqing nodded in agreement, but her heart was mixed.
I don't know if Lu Li can bear An Xiabai's trust.
"By the way, since you believe that the general will not have any other thoughts about this girl, why did you come to ask me about the situation?" Ruqing was puzzled and said, "Could it be that something strange was found in her?" ”
An Xiabai nodded tangledly, and shook his head again: "It's not that there is something strange about her, but something strange about them." ”
An Xia Bai dared Ruqing to say that he saw a young man in the city, and also told him about the similarity between that son and Lu Shu'er.
In this way, Rao is big grinning Ruqing's face also changed.
"After Xia Bai said that, I also felt a little strange.......
The two glanced at each other, and hurried to see Lu Li without even eating two bites of dinner, and it happened that Shen Ya was also there when they arrived at the place, so he told them all his suspicions.
Lu Li and Shen Ya both kept an eye on it.
They ordered someone to inquire about Lu An, and asked people to secretly observe Lu Shu'er and Bu Ying, but they never found anything unusual, so they suspected that An Xiabai and Ruqing were women's psychology, so they thought too much.
What Lu Li and the others didn't know was that they hadn't found anything strange recently, mainly because Lu Shu'er had discovered their suspicions about herself, she told Bu Li and Lu An about it, and told them to usually behave in a low-key manner.
Lu Li truthfully told An Xiabai the results of his investigation, and the latter subconsciously raised his eyebrows.
Is it really that you are thinking too much?
When the two were puzzled, the general in charge of the internal affairs of the military camp hurried over, and then knelt down in front of the two of them with a look of shame, and said in a solemn tone: "General, madam, there is not much food and grass left in the army. ”
An Xiabai didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, since the incident, the grain and grass in the barracks have been allocated by her, and now that the grain and grass are insufficient, she is naturally nervous: "How long can the remaining grain and grass last now?" ”
"Madame Hui, at most one month!"
An Xiabai's cold sweat came down.
The grain and grass used in the military camp before was bought by someone on the way to escape, and for these grains and grass, she used up more than half of her savings, and now it is difficult to buy them on a large scale.
"I will take care of the matter of grain and grass," An Xiabai said softly to reassure the general, "you tell me to go down, everything will go as usual, and within a month I will definitely be able to get grain and grass, so that the soldiers will not panic." ”
With An Xiabai opening his mouth and Lu Li beside him, the general was naturally convinced, and after saying a word of hard work, he left the camp in a hurry as when he came.
As soon as the curtain of the camp tent was closed, An Xiabai half frowned.
"Now that there are wars going on in many places, and some wild places are being infested by mountain bandits, where can we get food and grass? It will definitely not be possible to buy as much as before......." The more An Xiabai thought about it, the more he felt a headache, "I don't know if it will be feasible to go to Zhouguan to grab some grain and grass." ”
Lu Li knew that she was just talking, and she didn't take it to heart.
Seeing An Xiabai's distressed expression, Lu Li hooked the corners of his lips and smiled slightly: "Madame, why worry about the matter of grain and grass, isn't this Nanhuai City a rich place, and it is also a country of abundance, presumably the surplus grain in the people's homes will not be too small, and there should be a lot of grain in the hands of the merchants in the city, we can ......"
"No!"
Before Lu Li's words could be finished, An Xiabai hurriedly interrupted, not only that, but she also covered Lu Li's mouth tightly with her hand, as if she didn't want him to continue.
"Husband, how can you say that, even if our army is short of food and grass, we can't do anything to the surplus food in the homes of ordinary people, if we do, then what is the difference between us and those mountain bandits and robbers?"
Lu Li was stunned at first, and it took a while to understand that it was An Xiabai who was wrong.
"Madam, I didn't mean that, I was thinking that the people of Nanhuai City had surplus grain at home, and he was wealthy, so it would not have much impact on life after selling some food to us, I wanted to buy food, not to grab food, you misunderstood me."
An Xiabai realized that he was wrong, and hurriedly took two steps back, his cheeks flushed: "It turned out to be a ..... It's me thinking wrong. ”
Lu Li smiled, stepped forward and hugged the person into his arms: "That robbery is something that only bandits do, and the people are really obedient to me, how can I do it?" ”
Lu Li said that he wanted to buy some food from the people of Nanhuai City, and he made a move the next day.
After the price was clearly marked, he originally wanted to use the money collected from the corrupt officials to buy food, but what he never expected was that when the news of the army's grain collection was released, the people did not sell the food in their homes, but donated it for free, and said that Lu Li is a wise person, if he can be the master of the world, the people's life will be better, these food donations, is to hope that Lu Li can have no worries.
There were even people who patted their chests in front of Lu Li and said: "General Lu, if this food is not enough, my family still has it, I will keep some for my life, and the rest can be donated, as long as you can win the battle, we can make up as much food as possible!" ”
Lu Li's heart was hot, and he respectfully made a compilation to them.
But the army is an army after all, and tens of thousands of soldiers rely on the grain and grass in the army to eat, and there are people who donate voluntarily, but they can't fill this huge hole.
Just when the generals in the military camp were scratching their hearts and livers about the matter of grain and grass, An Xiabai suddenly had an idea and said that he had a bold idea.
The so-called idea is to rob, but not from the hands of the people, but from the hands of the army of Zhouguan. King Li sits on most of the world, has a lot of money, and never treats his soldiers badly, if he can steal their supplies, the army here should not have to worry about Lang Cao's affairs for a long time.
