502. Twelve gold medals
Saying goodbye to Arashi and no regrets, I led the convoy back to Seoul, and I still have some things to do before I go back to Gyeongshi.
I'm not afraid of Zhu Yijun, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to go into battle shirtless and throw myself into the net.
When I docked, Li Rusong, Ye Sizhong and others received the news and came to the port to pick me up.
When they saw me, they had different expressions, and I could guess that they certainly didn't get any good news.
In public, the two didn't say anything, just said that it was safe. Then he asked people to count the money and food, and took me back to the City Lord's Mansion.
Entering the courtyard, Li Rusong took us straight into the inner house, we sat down, poured tea from the person who came in, Li Rusong asked him to bring the door, and the person immediately understood that we had something to say, silently walked out of the door, and brought the door from the outside.
"Why did you want to come back?" Li Rusong suddenly asked, "Haven't you heard the meaning of the above?" That's absolutely impossible. With your intelligence skills, you must have gotten this news before we did! ”
Ye Sizhong didn't speak, just looked at me with concern, and his eyes were full of unwillingness and regret.
"Why don't I come back? Do you just abscond in fear of sin? Isn't that in the hands of Zhu Yijun? I sneered. You are innocent! I will know to anyone! Ye Sizhong said in a deep voice: "The Beijing master has passed many holy decrees and announced that you will return to Beijing to report on your work." Everyone knows what this debriefing is all about! Why is that? You have given so much for your country, why should you be treated like this? ”
As he spoke, he slammed his fist on the table, his eyes flushed!
I smiled faintly and didn't make a sound, Li Rusong stared at me tightly and asked, "Qilan, you don't really plan to go back to Beijing, do you?" Now that the Holy Lord has spread that rumor, you will definitely not be able to please it when you go back! ”
I glanced at Li Rusong with an indifferent expression: "Then brother, what should I do if I don't go back?" ”
"The sea is wide and the fish jumps, the sky is high and the birds fly, Qilan, you have your own place to go, why do you have to go to your own death?" Li Rusong sighed.
I silently looked up at the ceiling and said softly: "Thank you for the kindness of the two brothers, it's just that my father-in-law and wife are still in Beijing, and they must have been monitored for a long time." If I don't go back, I'm afraid that it will be bad for them, then how can I do it? ”
Li Rusong and Ye Sizhong were suddenly silent. Yes, if the husband stands up to the sky, if he can't even protect his wife and children, even if he makes great achievements in life, what is there to boast about?
Thinking of this, Li Rusong swallowed back the words "brothers are like siblings, and wives are like clothes", and he could only sigh, and then asked: "I see that Qilan is confident, and you must have a way to deal with it, so I'm too worried!" I wish you all the best. ”
Ye Sizhong also looked at me, and the meaning in his eyes was obviously asking me: "Is there really a plan?" ”
I glanced at him and said guiltily: "It would be a lie to say that there is no plan, but it is still an idea, and it is still very immature, so let me think about it again." ”
The two of them didn't say anything else, just picked up the teacup and drank water one by one.
At this moment, the herald outside came and knocked on the door, Li Rusong came in with a shout, and the herald pushed the door in.
When he walked in the door, he suddenly saw me sitting next to Li Rusong, his face was stunned for a moment, and then he arched his hand and said, "Handsome!" Jingshi came to the holy decree again, announcing ...... Admiral Xuansun went to Beijing to report on his work! ”
Li Rusong was silent for a moment before he stretched out his hand and said, "Take it!" ”
The herald immediately came over and bowed, and handed the holy decree to Li Rusong with both hands.
Li Rusong unfolded it gently, frowned and looked at it for a moment, then closed the holy decree casually and handed it to me.
I opened it and almost didn't laugh out loud!
The holy decree of the Ming Dynasty is different from other dynasties, and the holy decree of other dynasties pays attention to a literary crepe and an official tone, but the holy decree of the Ming Dynasty is one and the other, without embellishment.
It is said that this is a tradition left by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the filial sons and grandchildren behind him have not broken this rule.
This Raushzi holy decree said: "I heard that Sun Qilan has made meritorious contributions on the front line, and now that the war has stopped, let him return to Beijing as soon as possible, report on his work and receive the reward." ”
In just twenty-six words, he wrote all the words that the little emperor Zhu Yijun wanted to say.
If I hadn't known him well, I would have been grateful to Dade in my heart and shouted the wisdom of the saints!
But now that he knows his face, he only feels ridiculous, and he even sighs at the sinister heart, because he is such a person.
After I finished reading it, I handed it to Ye Sizhong, the old brother looked at it for a while, and suddenly his heart was on fire, and he was about to tear up the holy decree, and shouted in his mouth: "Treat the hero like this!" Could it be that the Ming Dynasty is really as your master said, Shou Zuo ......"
When the words came to his lips, he held back the second half of the sentence. After all, the partition wall has ears, and it would be a big bad thing if it was spread out.
I gently took back the decree, and if he tore it up by mistake, I was afraid that it would be a disaster in the future.
Li Rusong sighed and said: "There are several holy decrees in two days, is the Holy Lord really going to perform another storm pavilion?" ”
I snorted coldly: "He wants to be Zhao Gou, but I am not Yue Fei!" If you want my life, I'm afraid it's not that easy! ”
"Good! Good man! Good boy! I, Li Rusong, have always been above the top, but you absolutely admire Qilan! Someone, prepare wine! Li Rusong shouted.
The banquet was coming, the three of us sat opposite each other, Li Rusong took the lead in raising his glass and got up and said: "My cup, I wish Qilan a smooth and safe return when he goes to Beijing!" ”
The three of us didn't talk much, and we were all touched by it, and we drank it all up!
Ye Sizhong then raised his glass and said loudly: "The sky has eyes, and it will not treat those who have a heart lightly!" Qilan, brother is waiting for you here! If the above is really unfavorable to you, I, Ye Sizhong, will be the first to refuse! Even if it's the other way around......"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he was stopped by me and Li Rusong, I didn't dare to say this! In case someone else listens to it, I'm afraid that in addition to me, I will have another unjust soul!
In order to gag his mouth, we hurriedly drank the wine.
They both looked at me with blank eyes, waiting for me to say something.
I thought about it, raised my glass and said: "Two brothers, the younger brother is going to Jingshi Mountain and the water is far away, and he doesn't have to worry about it. ”
The two of them didn't know what I was going to say, so they could only drink with me before they heard me say, "Brother Li, you need to remember that in eight years, the Tatars will attack again. If the imperial court sends you to meet the enemy, you will play dead or call yourself sick, and you must not go to the front line! Remember! Remember! ”
Li Rusong didn't know that I had a "prophecy" skill, and he didn't know what I meant, so he asked suspiciously: "Why is this?" What Qilan said is so strange. ”
I smiled and shook my head: "Just do what I say, man, little brother won't hurt you!" ”
Ye Sizhong added beside him: "Master Qilan's Xuangong is superb, and many major events are expected. If you listen to him, there is no mistake. ”
Li Rusong glanced at Ye Sizhong, he always knew that Ye Sizhong was the most cautious, never fought uncertain battles, and never said uncertain words, since even he said so, this matter is reliable.
So he frowned and asked, "Could it be that there is any disadvantage to going there......
I looked like a magic stick: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, but I have already violated the law for the sake of my brother, how can I be wrong again and again?" ”
Li Rusong immediately pecked at the rice: "Understood!" Got it! ”
I turned to Ye Sizhong again: "Brother, you also remember that after more than ten years, the Northeast boundary will not be peaceful, and when the time comes, there will be Brother Li's family going around, and you must not bring troops here!" Remember! Remember! ”
"Northeast?" Ye Sizhong and Li Rusong glanced at each other, and Li Rusong waited for Ye Sizhong and asked, "What's going on in the Northeast?" ”
I glanced at Li Rusong deeply and chuckled: "Brother Li, you understand!" After this fight, Brother Li, your family will have no trouble dealing with it, but if others go, it may not be beautiful! ”
Li Rusong immediately understood, I was talking about the Jurchens who had a close relationship with the Li family. Ye Sizhong also had a lot of news from me, and when he heard this, he immediately understood, and he was speechless, and said for a long time: "I wrote it down!" ”
The two of them saw that I continued to leak the heavenly secrets before leaving, but they were all for the sake of the safety of their lives, and they were moved not to want it, and they could only toast me one after another under the condition that they could not express it.
We were all seven or eight minutes drunk that night, and we didn't disperse until late at night.
I returned to the post station and thought about it, why wait until tomorrow to see off, let them send each other is reluctant, men stand in the world, how can there be so much spirit of being a daughter?
Why don't I leave tonight!
So I asked people to summon the nine ghosts and political filial piety, explain it, and set off for the west overnight, straight to Beijing.
Presumably Li Rusong and Ye Sizhong will wake up tomorrow, and they will also understand my mind!
In addition to Seoul overnight, I did not delay on the road, and rushed to Jingshi all the way day and night. Not for anything else, just for my wife and children are still trapped in Beijing.
As a man, it is my duty and obligation to protect my wife and children.
In addition, the things I explained to Arashi and Unregretted are also time urgent, and if they can't be connected, it will be a fatal thing.
All the way, when I entered the Shanhaiguan Pass, it was already early March, and I walked in for more than ten days, and I had seen the Yanshan Mountains in the distance.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, how many heroes and heroes have been bred in the sixteen states of Yanyun. But this time, I'm afraid that it will be the last time I come back, and in this life, it can be regarded as a farewell to the mountains and rivers of my hometown! 、
Unconsciously, my heart turned from sadness to anger, from anger to helplessness.
The country of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is going to be destroyed, so how can I, an outsider, interfere?
Since you refuse to break the trajectory of history, then I will fulfill you, and even push you again!
After all, it's all your own choice!
"Zhengxiao, let the team speed up! Tomorrow morning, we will enter Beijing on time! ”
