Chapter 65: Official Documents (1)

His weapon was given to Zhang Shijie, but he worshiped a good brother, and the fire was also extinguished by Zhang Shijie, so it was not interesting to go hunting again.

I planned to blow the wind outside the city, ride a horse, relax and relax, and then go back to my father-in-law's house for dinner at dusk.

In fact, Shi Bin still likes this ancient city very much, although the city wall is not new, there are potholes everywhere; The vermilion paint at the city gate was almost half gone; The bowl of large copper nails was even more rusty.

But it is the hundred-zhang city wall, thousands of vermilion paints, and 10,000 copper nails that make people feel the wind and rain and profound heritage experienced by Ezhou, rather than the frivolous dilapidation.

As soon as he turned around, Shi Bin was attracted by the poetic official road again. At this time, he remembered a famous song "Farewell":

Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road,

The grass is green.

The evening breeze blows the willow flute,

Sunset Mountain Outer Mountain.

The end of the sky, the corner of the earth,

Half of the acquaintances are scattered;

A cloudy wine is full of joy,

Don't dream cold tonight.

Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road,

The grass is green.

When will you come,

Don't linger when you come.

The end of the sky, the corner of the earth,

Half of the acquaintances are scattered;

Life is a rare gathering,

There are only many separations.

The official road is actually a wide bluestone road, lined with rows of willow forests, although the sun is scorching, it is still refreshing. It feels similar to the road in the park in the previous life, so there is a bit of a leisurely feeling when walking on it, as if he is a master of the world who does not care about the world on this quiet official road now.

This narcissistic emotion was pulled back by the sound of horses' hooves coming from the front before it was finished, listening to the crisp and powerful sound is still a good horse, in order to avoid a "horse accident", Shi Bin consciously got off the horse and led it to the side of the road.

Judging from him, it turned out that a famous post man came galloping on horseback, and a military horse was naturally a strong and good horse. Shi Bin drooled when he saw it, how good it would be if he could have such a battalion of cavalry。。。。。。

Before he could finish sighing, the post man flew past him on horseback, but it scared Shi Bin enough, and if he was not careful, he would be hit on the head and bleeding and dying.

But the post man didn't look back at all, just struggled forward. It seems that he doesn't care about Shi Bin's life or death at all, he just wants to send the official document to the destination as soon as possible, and it seems to be six hundred miles in an emergency.

Six hundred miles expedited? This post guard entered from the north gate, that is, from the direction of Xiangyang, the Jingzhou Mansion Yin is only a local administrative official, generally less than 600 li to expedit, and in the north except for Xiangyang, the other territories of the Great Song Dynasty have fallen into the hands of the Yuan people. It is already completely militarized, so this official document must have been given to Jia Rudao, the general of Huguang.

Could it be that the Yuan soldiers, food, grass and troops were all ready, and they began to besiege the city and prepare for the attack? Jinghu pacified the ambassador and the commander of the capital, Meng Heng wanted to send troops to rescue Xiangyang, so he came to Jingzhou to urge food?

Although Shi Bin was very curious about the purpose of this post guard, curiosity killed the cat, and it was better to pretend to be stupid and protect himself in this official mansion. If he really wants to fight, Meng Hui won't be able to think of his subordinates, after all, he is also a fierce general and a lucky general, not to mention that his subordinates are not all martial artists, and there are a few capable people.

It's just that it's getting late, and it's time for dinner, so he should go back to the house for dinner. So, he turned over and returned to the city on his horse.

Before I arrived at Jiafu, I saw the post man galloping across the main street again, still looking like he was burning his buttocks. And there is a Jia Mansion in front of him that is a dignitary, so it can be seen that the post man must have gone to Jia Nidao's mansion.

Although Shi Bin really wanted to fight the Yuan people, he knew that it was best to give orders. At least he can't show his intention to transfer troops without authorization in front of Jia Yidao. It's best to pretend that you haven't even seen this post guard, so that you can repair the plank road and darken Chen Cang.

Shi Bin, who had thought of countermeasures, pretended to be aggrieved and had not completely disappeared and entered Jiafu.

As soon as he entered the house, he found that the atmosphere was not right, so the servants all kept their heads down and did things silently, and no one greeted him.

Shi Bin is strange, it was the official document urging 300,000 stone grain and grass, Jia Rudao felt that he had cut his flesh and was furious, but it shouldn't be a servant who ignored him. This is a strange thing, and it seems that he has to be cautious.

So he didn't think much about it and went directly back to the bedroom dedicated to himself and Jia Ling, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Jia Ling's choked voice, and Xiaoqin was comforting: "Miss, the master is also good for the uncle." After all, this is a war, and a war is to kill people, and he doesn't want his uncle to have an accident. Besides, what you said later is too reckless, and the lord will not agree to it. ”

"Nonsense, I don't know that? If Shi Bin was that kind of bastard, would I follow him? I won't even look at it! Jia Ling said angrily, as if she was not very happy, and said: "Meng Dutong is too ignorant of knowing people and being good at his duties, so he actually asked my husband to only be a grain presser, is there such an arrangement?" As soon as he finished speaking, he began to cry again.

Shi Bin, who was standing outside the door, knew why Jia Ling was crying, most likely because she had a big quarrel with Jia Yidao. And this eldest lady was taught a hard lesson by her father this time, where did she suffer this grievance? Naturally, I cried all over the place.

"Madam, why are you crying?" Shi Bin pretended to be surprised and walked in, holding Jia Ling's hand and asking softly.

"What are you pretending to be, when I don't know you're standing by the door? Did you even see the post guard who delivered the official document, and wanted to go to Xiangyang for a banquet? Jia Ling estimated that she had nowhere to be angry, so she and Shi Bin started a young lady's temper.

Does he know that this Miss Jia is a donkey, as long as she is happy, she will listen to you, and if she dares to touch her scales, she will prepare her to fight with you, so he said with a smile: "Madam is really sharp-eyed, but I just heard that Meng Dutong seems to want me to be a grain presser?" ”

As soon as she said this, she provoked Jia Ling's fire again, and she immediately shouted loudly: "Meng Dutong doesn't know how to use people, how can you only be a grain presser if you can fight so well?" My dad too, I asked him to post a document to discuss with Meng Dutong to let you join the attack sequence, but he didn't agree, only saying that this was not within his authority and had no right to ask. ”

Knowing that Jia Ling must not have finished spilling his anger, Shi Bin knew that not being able to spill his anger was actually a great harm to his body, so he said, "Madam, do you want to continue to fight with me?" I see that your temper is too great, is there anything different about this battle? ”

Seeing Shi Bin ask, Jia Ling nodded and continued, "Can I not fight for it?" This was an offensive campaign planned by Meng Dutong, not a defensive campaign, but he still disagreed, so I planned to take a step back and simply let me escort the grain and grass to Xiangyang with you. But not only did he not let me go, but he also scolded me. ”

finally figured these things out, Shi Bin couldn't help crying and laughing. didn't let me, the uncle who commanded the army, go to the battlefield to fight against the Yuan, how could he agree to let his baby daughter escort the grain and grass? How could such a shrewd person not know Jia Ling? What a bold woman she is, give her a Shibin gun, and she will dare to go into battle and kill Yuan Bing as killing a wild boar.

Seeing that she was still full of tears and looked unwilling, Shi Bin had no choice but to tell Jia Ling what she was planning to do.

Although Xiaoqin couldn't hear what Shi Bin said to Jia Ling like a mosquito, she looked at Jia Ling's face and was no longer depressed, and immediately knew that her aunt must have come up with some "clever plan" that met the wishes of the young lady.

Soon it was time for dinner, and the couple walked to the restaurant together. Along the way, Jia Ling even became overjoyed and hummed a little song. Seeing that this wife, who was smart but didn't have much scheming, actually laughed, Shi Bin immediately squeezed her hand.

was warned by Shi Bin, and this wonderful lady immediately turned into a little daughter-in-law who had been greatly wronged, frowning. Hold your mouth.

In the restaurant, the family had dinner. And Jia Ling still looked angry, not only did she just bow her head to eat, but she didn't even want to look at Jia Yidao. And although Jia Rudao wants to communicate with her, as a father, it is impossible for him to compromise with such a rude and willful daughter, and it is Shi Bin's business to make his daughter happy, so he can only eat his own food.

Those wives and concubines had already learned Jia Ling's temper, and they didn't dare to come out to persuade them.

Seeing that the heat was about the same, Shi Bin knew that it was his turn to act at this time, so he gently patted Jia Ling's table and said to Jia Ling: "Xiaoling, my father is also good to you and me, don't be angry。。。。。 ”

Before Shi Bin finished speaking, Jia Ling stepped on Shi Bin's instep, which hurt him so much that he stopped his mouth, and said angrily: "You want to care? Don't you know if I'm fighting for you? A five-foot-tall man is still afraid of going to war? I didn't expect you Shi Bin to be a bad seed, and you were afraid of death when you became a sesame official! ”

"I'm going to be scared to death? But soldiers have to obey military orders, don't you know? I think you've been too rude and rude to your father! I know that I am willful and tempered, I don't know how to understand my father's hard work, I really don't know how you read the Four Books and Five Classics! Shi Bin sternly reprimanded Jia Ling.

In this way, Jia Ling immediately burst into tears, smashed the chopsticks and bowl on the table, covered her head and cried.

After all, he is a father who loves his daughter very much, and when he saw his son-in-law doing this to his daughter, Jia Rudao immediately became angry and said angrily: "Shi Bin, why are you like this? Is my daughter wrong? Should an iron-blooded man be afraid of death? It should be the battlefield of the death in battle, the horse leather shroud! How she reads the book is something you can evaluate, are you doubting my Jia Nidao's family style? ”

Jia Rudao came to the fire, Shi Bin immediately softened, and apologized: "What my father-in-law taught me is that I really shouldn't be greedy for life and afraid of death, and I should treat death as home." Please write an official letter to Meng Heng and Meng Dutong for me to join the war, thank you! After speaking, he also stood up and saluted Jia Rudao. Then he explained with a smile: "I shouldn't have treated Xiaoling like this just now, but isn't this just to make her sensible?" I can't make you angry at every turn. ”

While apologizing, he still held Jia Ling's hand and looked at her with a smile.

Before Jia Yidao could react, Jia Ling stopped crying, and hurriedly said: "Father, you also think that a man should spill blood on the battlefield, right?" Then please write an official document! You are also a big husband, you can't say one thing and do another! You have to keep your word! ”

At this time, I didn't understand what he and his wife were doing, and Jia Yidao was not worthy of mixing in the officialdom, but the words had been spoken, and he couldn't go back on his dignified Huguang Commander.

But how could he admit defeat so much? And he did other tricks. For example, "good steel is used on the blade", now it is just a small fight, and it is not worthy of a general like Shi Bin; Another example is "the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved", it can be seen that the grain presser has a great responsibility, and he really attaches great importance to Shi Bin.

But his husband and wife are also very smart, and they don't accept Jia Nidao's set, and in the end Jia Nidao "compromised".

After dinner, he went to the study to write an official letter to Meng Heng, the ambassador of Jinghu pacification, suggesting that Shi Bin should be allowed to participate in the war, but he played a trick in it, saying that Shi Bin's troops were insufficient and not enough to undertake excessive tasks, and he was only suitable for being assigned to the rear army to respond to the attacking troops.

Knowing that this father-in-law is cunning, I can't help but admire this old slippery head when I look at the official document. In this way, isn't he Shi Bin still a theater watcher? However, knowing that this was Jia Nidao's bottom line of compromise, he pulled out Jia Ling, who was still having a temper.
