Chapter 411: The old lover in front of Pei's Mansion 'Gate'

With the payment of the fine required by the holy decree, the last obstacle for Li Huaitang to win Pei Xiaoniang was removed. The happiest people are none other than Pei Xiaoniang and Shui Rou'er, from that day on, they no longer have to worry about someone interfering in their marriage with Li Huaitang, and Pei Fu will not be embarrassed by this, everything is logical.

Early in the morning, Pei Xiaoniang and Shui Rouer hurriedly broke into Li Huaitang's bedroom, and the word was not very rigorous, and Li Huaitang did not close the 'door' tightly at all.

"Ahh Li Huaitang's screams in his bedroom were mixed up. Pei Xiaoniang and Shui Rou'er retreated in panic with red faces, and the big birds in the room were fierce, strongly impacting their sight.

Li Huaitang was awakened in the room, lying beside him was a delicate little lady, looking at him blankly.

"It seems to be the cry of a little girl." Shang Ling was sleepy-eyed, and looked out of the 'door' in confusion.

"Hee-hee, sister, look." Following the direction of Shang Long's finger, Shang Ling covered her mouth and snorted, and immediately realized the meaning of Pei Xiaoniang's exclamation just now.

"I'm ashamed, Li Lang kicked the quilt again!" Shang Ling picked up a thin quilt to cover the vigorous "birds".

"Oh no, I was seen by Ruoxi Xiaoniang, we, how can we meet people?" Shang Ling shook Li Huaitang's arm complainingly. Since the last time the Linglong little lady "played" the flute for Li Huaitang, Li Huaitang has always missed the beautiful 'spring' light of that night, last night, the Linglong little lady had a heart, and found an excuse to run to Li Huaitang's room, and as a result, Li Huaitang got what he wanted.

Li Huaitang laughed and said, "It seems that I am the one who suffers?" ”

"Li Lang is necrotic!" The two sisters were angry together.

"It's still early, how about morning exercise?" Li Huaitang grabbed the delicate lady's hand and extended it down.

"Don't! Did Li Lang forget? Today, I want to go back to Pei's Mansion with Ruoxi Xiaoniang. Shang Ling said faintly, her tone revealing envy.

Li Huaitang heard the little lady's thoughts, and said: "Ningyuan City will no longer be threatened by any war, peace and prosperity are full of business opportunities, businessmen from all over the world gather, and it may not be impossible for your father to move his family to Ningyuan City." ”

"Huh?! Are you sure? Wouldn't we be able to go back to see our grandmother often? Linglong Shuangshu looked forward excitedly, and her little hands tightly grasped Li Huaitang's arm.

Li Huaitang said with a smile: "When I take the Shi Kingdom and occupy the Zhaowu Kingdoms, your father will naturally make a choice." ”

"Li Lang," Ling'er 'waves' and 'waves' rippled, and the slender 'jade' fingers wandered on Li Huaitang's sturdy 'chest'.

"Huh?" Li Huaitang suddenly felt the change in Shang Ling, his big watery eyes greeted him shyly, exuding tenderness and sweetness, and the meaning of invitation was very strong.

Li Huaitang was 'about to turn over' and get on the horse, and Liu Meiren's delicate laughter floated in from outside the 'door': "Did Li Lang sleep well last night?" ”

With the willow beauty into the 'door' is Ji Niang and Feng Niang, they are the willow beauty's 'waiting' maid, the two are very 'serving' talent, well-behaved and tame people are amazing, deeply appreciated by the willow beauty. Several times, when Li Huaitang and Liu Meiren were crazy, Liu Meiren even offered to let Ji Niang Yuefeng Niang replace her and let Li Huaitang enjoy herself, but Li Huaitang refused politely. It's not that he has a high style, but he can't bear to see the resentful eyes of Pei Xiaoniang and other little beauties, before turning Pei Xiaoniang and them into 'women', Li Huaitang can't bear to 'seducing' Ji Niang Feng Niang.

Ji Niang Feng Niang was so clever that she had nothing to say, without any instructions from Liu Meiren, they each carried a plate of warm water, and naturally stood on the edge of the 'bed', put down the sundries in their hands, helped Li Huaitang up, and cleaned him, changed his clothes, and helped him rinse his mouth and wash his face under the jealous gaze of Linglong Shuangshu.

"Li Lang, Ruoxi Xiaoniang is waiting outside in a hurry, and the carriage gifts are ready." Liu Meiren urged gently.

Li Huaitang's schedule was very tight, he returned to Pei's mansion with Pei Xiaoniang in the morning, went to the Longwu Cavalry Barracks to recruit mercenaries in the afternoon, and when he recruited enough 800 people, he set off for Luoyang.

In order to avoid swaggering and causing onlookers, on the way back to Pei's mansion, Pei Xiaoniang's master and servant and Li Huaitang sat in the carriage.

"Li Lang is not ashamed, and he doesn't know how to put on clothes when he sleeps." Pei Xiaoniang hid in Li Huaitang's arms and laughed.

Although Shui Rou'er on the other side was also laughing, her tone was full of jealousy: "Sister Linglong is not ashamed, she has brought Brother Niu badly." ”

"Hehe, do you want to try it?" Li Huaitang's hands began to be dishonest, and he pinched wherever it was soft.

"Crunch!" The carriage braked suddenly, and the carriage didn't know what it had hit, "Bang! With a bang, the whole carriage shook violently, and the strong inertia "sex" threw Li Huaitang and the three of them out of their seats, and in the crisis, Li Huaitang reluctantly protected the two beauties in his arms, and fell on the board of the carriage in embarrassment.

The angry scolding outside the carriage dispelled the suspicion of Li Huaitang's assassination.

"Damn, how can you travel without eyes? This is the son of the prime minister, the concubine of Princess Xinchang, who hit the carriage of the princess, and none of you want to leave today! ”

Li Huaitang held back his anger and helped the two little girls, and he jumped out of the carriage to see who was playing the score.

In front of the 'gate' of Andingfang, two carriages facing north and south were stuck at the entrance, Li Huaitang's carriage came from the south, and the carriage that collided with him had just entered the city from the north 'gate'. At the scene of the car accident, the soldiers on the general's horse and the other party's guards confronted each other fiercely.

The collision between the two cars was not serious, it was just rubbed and it was not a big problem. "It turned out to be a narrow road encounter. Forget it, Hu Yijian, make way for them! "Li Huaitang is very generous, even the gods can't clear the responsibility for this kind of car accident, forget about the small things, so as not to delay the big things.

However, the other party did not appreciate it and had a tough attitude: "Who has the final say?" You have injured my concubine, and if you don't give a satisfactory explanation, don't blame us for being ruthless, and reward you with a prison sentence! ”

Li Huaitang stared at the arrogant family of the other party, and said coldly: "Hu Yijian, I count three times, and after three sounds, I don't want to see them still standing in the way." ”

"Yes! General! Hu Yijian jumped off the horse, the joints of his fists were pinched with a "gurgling" sound, and a hideous smile climbed onto his face, and he looked fierce.

"You, what do you want to do?" Jiading was obviously bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and subconsciously retreated two steps.

"Three!" When threatening, Li Huaitang has always counted down. Hu Yijian and the others were stunned for a moment, and were about to 'want' to make a move, when a 'jade' face walked down from the carriage of the other party, and shouted to stop the imminent fight.

"Excellent, don't mess around! My father and uncle are still waiting for me, so pack up and leave. "'Jade' Langjun dissatisfiedly lectured his family, then turned to Li Huaitang and said apologetically: "I accidentally offended the general when I was in a hurry, and I asked the general Haihan." ”

Li Huaitang nodded, motioned for Hu Yijian to stop, and said: "It's a trivial matter, the master of the horse is generous, and Li has learned it." Please! ”

'Jade' Langjun smiled slightly and said goodbye.

The two carriages were only slightly rubbing, and each side gave way to a step, and the road was suddenly clear. Li Huaitang got into the carriage again, but felt a strange atmosphere.

"What's wrong? Hurt? Li Huaitang found that Pei Xiaoniang's face was not 'colored' and he was uneasy, and his eyes flickered and wandered.

Pei Xiaoniang barely 'revealed' a smile: "No, no." Li Lang, it's better that we won't go back today, okay? ”

Li Huaitang said strangely: "Cowardice at home? Don't be stupid, if you miss today, I'm afraid you will have to wait two or three years next time. ”

"Hmm." Pei Xiaoniang leaned on Li Huaitang tightly, worried, helpless and apprehensive 'mixed' on her face.

The 'interlude' couldn't stop Li Huaitang's trip, and the carriage quickly arrived at Pei's mansion.

There were also two other carriages parked in front of the 'gate' of Pei's house. "Huh?" Isn't this the carriage that collided with us at the junction just now? Hu Yi's arrow was sharp-eyed and found the enemy.

Only then did Li Huaitang notice that there was a small piece of cloth hanging on the side of the two carriages, and the word "Xiao" was printed on the cloth.

"Xiao?" Li Huaitang frowned slightly, this word was a bit dazzling to him, especially in his memory, it didn't feel good.

"Li Lang, I'm not feeling well, I want to go back." Pei Xiaoniang was a little nervous, and actually 'wanted' to return to the carriage.

The big 'door' of Pei's Mansion suddenly opened, and a small servant appeared in the crack of the 'door'.

"Huh? The little lady is back, the little lady is back! The little guy was stunned for a moment, then turned around and shouted in surprise.

Like last time, Pei Xiaoniang's return to the house once again caused a sensation in the house, not only because of the good popularity of the little lady, but also because of Li Huaitang, who was extremely generous, and won the love of all the subordinates.

The scene of Wu holding Pei Xiaoniang laughing and crying was staged again, and the difference from the last time was that Li Huaitang saw a stranger, who was the 'jade' face Langjun he had seen at the intersection.

"It's you?!" 'Jade' face Langjun was quite surprised, looked at Pei Xiaoniang and then at Li Huaitang, his expression was so complicated that he couldn't express it. No one needs to introduce him, 'Jade' Langjun already knows Li Huaitang's identity.

Pei Qing, who was standing on the side, hurriedly introduced to Li Huaitang: "This is the princess of Xinchang, Xiao Heng, the son of Zhongshu Ling. ”

"Xiao Heng?" Li Huaitang immediately realized why Pei Xiaoniang was abnormal, it turned out to be this person!

The green mountains can't cover it, after all, it flows eastward. The scene that Pei Xiaoniang didn't want to see happened suddenly, and she looked at Li Huaitang in embarrassment, like a child who had done something wrong.

"Li Lang, I,"

Li Huaitang said softly: "Don't think nonsense, today is a happy day, don't ruin your good mood for the shadow in your heart." Go ahead and talk to your mother-in-law. ”

"Thank you, Li Lang." Pei Xiaoniang's eyes were filled with tears, and her heart fell to the ground, she was proud of her future husband and his broad 'chest'.

"Li Langzi, Liancheng, he's waiting for you in the study." Wu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, Li Huaitang called her mother, she also recognized this husband, and immediately ordered Pei Qing to take Li Huaitang to the study to meet Pei Guangting.

In the study, in addition to Pei Guangting, there is also Xiao Song, the Chinese scholar of the Tang Dynasty.

"The virtuous nephew came just in time, the old man is a little sleepy and needs to ask you for advice!" Xiao Song looked at Li Huaitang with a smile. Today is the tenth day, and it is a holiday for Datang civil servants. Xiao Song is a very popular minister, busy with affairs, and he can't be idle during the holidays. On official business, he needed the emperor to share his worries, and Li Longji, who was so happy, was in a hurry to launch an offensive against Tubo, completely defeated Tubo, and then turned his head to deal with the 36th Khitan Department that was not inferior to the Tang Realm and repeatedly violated the Tang Realm. 'Private' matters are a matter of money, borrowing money is disdainful of the writer, but the situation forced him to take this step, he can't pull his old face, so he asked Erlang to come forward, so Xiao Heng happened to appear in Pei's mansion. And whether it is public or private, it is related to Li Huaitang, so he found Pei Guangting.

"I heard that the virtuous nephew is going to take down Broken Leaf Town and present it to the Holy Lord as a dowry for the princess?" Xiao Song went straight to the point. This rumor was so mysterious that when he asked for a solution, Li Longji only smiled and said nothing.

Li Huaitang said: "This? ”

Xiao Song said: "Hehe, it stands to reason that the general should respect Liancheng, I am a brother and sister to Liancheng, and it is not an exaggeration to be your uncle." There are no outsiders here, so why not tell the truth? ”

Pei Guangting helped: "Li Langzi doesn't have to hide it, he has something to say." ”

"It was indeed my intention!" Li Huaitang said simply, "It's just that water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent, as for whether and when to take Broken Leaf Town, it depends on the development of the situation." If the Tuqi Shi people cooperate, it may not be impossible for Zhezhi City and Broken Leaf City to take it together. ”

Xiao Song stared at Li Huaitang silently, suddenly laughed, and said: "Liancheng is blessed to have met such a good man." Well, besieging the city for reinforcements, attacking it will be saved, it is indeed good, and the Turgish people may have to fall into the general's hand! ”

Li Huaitang was taken aback, he didn't expect Xiao Song to be so sharp that he could guess his tactical intentions just by his own words. That's right, he did have the idea of encircling the point to send reinforcements, besieging Zhezhi City to attract the Turgish people to come to the rescue, setting up an ambush on their way, annihilating the living force of the Turgish people in one fell swoop, and reducing the resistance to the capture of Broken Leaf Town in the future.

Pei Guangting said with a smile: "In this way, Anxi has no worries. We can concentrate our efforts on dealing with the Tibetans. ”

Xiao Song shook his head and said: "Last year, Zhao Hanzhang sent back news from Anxi, saying that the Tubo people have reached an alliance with the Xiao Bolu people with their in-laws as a link, and if it is true, the powerful Tubo people can use the Dao Xiao Bolu to attack my Green Ridge Town, cut off the back road of Khotan, and thus threaten the safety of Shule Town." ”

Li Huaitang added: "Well, the Tubo people did intend to marry their princess to the little Bolu king, and the Tubo captives I captured confirmed this, and they also had actual collusion, and there were little Bolu people who besieged my Ningyuan City last year. ”

Pei Guangting looked at Li Huaitang and asked, "Can Li Langzi be sure to contain the Tubo people in the direction of Xiao Bolu?" ”

Li Huaitang said with a straight face: "If the Tubo people dare to take the route of Xiao Bolu to send troops to attack Anxi, I will cut off his back road and let him have no return!" ”

"Good! With the general's words, I am relieved. Well, one more thing, I wonder if the general can send us some big food war horses? Xiao Song looks honest, but his face is not ordinarily thick, seeing that Li Huaitang is like a cornucopia, he will give whatever the saint wants, Xiao Song is not far behind. Li Huaitang's personal army rode in pairs, and their war horses were obviously stronger than the Hexi horses and Turkic horses of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Huaitang's face was full of black lines, he was really good and bullied, everyone thought he was a 'fat' sheep, and he opened his mouth casually.

"Zhongshu Ling has a good eye, the big food war horse is fast, bold, easy to feed, born a war horse, it's just that these big food war horses were taken by me from the big cannibal, and I just started to establish a population to breed last year, and I don't have many iron horses in Ningyuan, but if Zhongshu Ling likes it, we can 'exchange' it for a bow and arrow, how about it?"

Xiao Song smiled at Pei Guangting embarrassedly, and said: "Your husband is really a good businessman, it is not easy to take advantage of him, if it is not for the sake of the Pei family, I am afraid that the saint will not be able to please him." ”

"That's it, don't talk about it again. I heard that the virtuous nephew gained a lot yesterday, and the tax paid to the household department alone was more than 30,000 yuan. Xiao Song suddenly shifted the topic to money and silver. Today's conversation went well, and he had a hunch that Li Huaitang would do what he wanted.

Li Huaitang also had a hunch, and someone was eyeing his Kaiyuan Tongbao again.

The hunch is right, Xiao Song is actually like a little daughter-in-law, borrowing money from Li Huaitang with a red face, Li Huaitang is very strange, this Zhongshu Ling was still generous when he asked him for a war horse, but he was so embarrassed to borrow money.

"Twenty thousand?" Li Huaitang was not shocked, although he also needed money, but 20,000 yuan was not difficult for him.

Xiao Song sneered and said: "Alas, the virtuous nephew is a colt, and my dog is also a colt, so it can't be compared." Huang Enhao 'dang', the dog son Shang Xinchang Princess is his blessing, the only regret is that he can no longer set foot in the career, but unfortunately he is full of scriptures, originally thought that let him take care of the family industry will not be idle and looked down upon, did not expect, but he is not this material, lost a lot of money, after many collections, now still owe 20,000. If you don't make up for it, the land left by your ancestors will be repaid, so you have no choice but to come to Brother Liancheng with a cheeky face. ”

"Zhongshu Ling is reassured that money is not an issue. It's just that this copper coin is heavy, I'm afraid I will have to trouble Ling Lang to run to my station, and I will let Ling Lang transport it to the house. "20,000 yuan can buy a favor from the Tang Dynasty Zhongshu Ling, and Li Huaitang will never let go of such an opportunity. But Li Huaitang didn't have enough flying money, in order to recruit mercenaries, he exchanged most of the flying money and almost all the gold and silver valuables into Kaiyuan Tongbao, raising a total of more than 50,000 yuan, plus scraped from Wang Yuanbao, as well as Xian Dalang's sponsorship, a total of 150,000 yuan. The money seems to be a lot, but without 'spending', the 800 mercenaries will be paid more than half of the total amount of 100 yuan per person, and they will also need to be equipped with war horses, sabers and bows, etc., and a large amount of money will be needed for the 'spending' of returning to Ningyuan City. The sudden increase in the budget of 20,000 yuan caused at least half of Li Huaitang's mercenaries to have to wait until they returned to Ningyuan City to be fully armed.

Xiao Song was overjoyed and said: "The virtuous nephew is refreshing, and the old man is overwhelmed with 'excitement'." I'll ask Saburo to give you an IOU, and I'll pay it back later. ”

Li Huaitang waved his hand and said, "This money, just the fine I subscribed, it is really rude to come to Chang'an City for so many days but have not been able to visit the mansion." ”

Pei Guangting said with a smile: "Brother don't have to be polite, I will accept Li Langzi's money for you, and if he dares to ask for it, he will ask me." ”

"Haha, good, good, since the virtuous nephew wants me to owe this love, but Song is disrespectful, what difficulties will the virtuous nephew have in the future, Song will definitely help! Hey? Li Langzi asked for it so soon? ”

Li Huaitang coughed twice and said, "Hehe, it's just a small request, I hope there are more craftsmen for this little girl's dowry......

"Haha, small problem, easy to say, easy to say!" The hearty laughter of the two cabinet ministers filled the study. Please keep in mind the URL, if you like "War Owl in Tang" written by the wolf under the moon
