Chapter 304: Disaster to the Pond Fish
Yu Zhongwen saw Zuo Xiaosi walking out dejectedly, he didn't bother to ask Zuo Xiaosi, and said to Zuo Xiaosi weakly: "Fourth brother, this inn can't live and let it go first, but it's hard to get hungry, and find a place to eat first, and then find an inn when you're full." ”
Listening to Yu Zhongwen, Zuo Xiaosi himself felt hungry. They just had some food in Yanjing City when they came, and then rushed all the way to Danzhou City, of course they were hungry. When they came out today, they thought that when they arrived at Yanqi Island or Danzhou, they would not be short of food, so they didn't bring some jerky or anything like that. These 300 cavalry troops were newly trained by Gao Yuan, and the food bags had not yet been matched. Yu Zhongwen is right, the inn won't run away again, so I'm not in a hurry to find it. Zuo Xiaosi said: "Everyone is looking for some, and if there is anything to sell, they all bought and ate first." ”
Everyone in this group of cavalry was hungry and panicked, and when they heard Zuo Xiaosi say this, they were like wolves, looking around, and continued to walk along the street.
The soldier walking in front of him suddenly quarreled with a shopkeeper on the side of the road, and Zuo Xiaosi hurriedly went over to look. I saw that the soldier was holding a meatloaf in his hand, and the meatloaf seller was holding the soldier's arm and not letting go, and the two were arguing.
Zuo Xiaosi hurriedly stopped the soldier and asked what was going on. The soldier said, "He sells meatloaf, and others buy two pennies each, and I give him five pennies to eat one meatloaf, but he robs it and won't give it to me." ”
The meat patty seller just said: "But those who come from Yanjing will not sell them!" ”
Yu Zhongwen walked over at this time and said, "You don't know what to do, we buy your meatloaf, and it's not short of your money, you just have to sell it, no matter where it comes from." ”
The shopkeeper shouted viciously: "The humiliated princess surnamed Zhou, not only me, who sells meatloaf, but also in Danzhou City, there will be no one to sell food to you." It's okay for you to wait, if the guy surnamed Zhou comes, he will be beaten out of the city! ”
Zuo Xiaosi had no choice but to let the soldier put down the meatloaf and said to Yu Zhongwen: "No wonder the inn refused to keep us just now, so that's the case." ”
Yu Zhongwen is a civil servant, people don't sell it, and they won't rob it, so he said to Zuo Xiaosi: "Little brother Zuo, let's go out of the city first, I'm afraid I can't even drink saliva in this city." ”
Zuo Xiaosi thought about it, this Danzhou City is the princess's closed city, and the people in the city are naturally devoted to the princess, and when they heard that Zhou Nan did not agree to marry the princess, they will definitely be angry for the princess, so they don't want to be able to eat in Danzhou City. When you get to the outside of the city, there may be a roadside wild shop, and if you don't know these things, you may be able to get some food.
The group rode out of the city, it was already dark, and when they got out of the city gate, Zuo Xiaosi knew that what he had just thought was too funny. When I came to Danzhou all the way, there were no roadside shops at all, and I didn't see the village people along the way.
Three hundred people stood outside the gate of Danzhou, and they didn't know where to go, let's stay, look at the city gate of Danzhou that has been closed behind them, and the soldiers gloating on the city wall, they are not welcome here at all, can they only rush back to Yanjing overnight hungry?
Just when Yu Zhongwen and Zuo Xiaosi were worried, the gate of Danzhou City slowly opened again, and a team of soldiers came out from inside, pushing several cars, and walked towards Zuo Xiaosi and them. Walking in front was a forty-year-old man, with lap legs, short and strong, giggling, first saluted Yu Zhongwen, and then said to Zuo Xiaosi: "Fourth brother, it's only been two months, and you don't know each other?" ”
Zuo Xiaosi saw that it was a black-armored army general who was drinking with Xiao Lao Liu on the night of Yanqi Lake, also surnamed Xiao, and hurriedly replied: "It turned out to be Brother Xiao, disrespectful." But I don't know where Brother Xiao goes on business at night? ”
The general surnamed Xiao said with a low smile: "Don't blame me for the neglect of the people of Danzhou, the princess is very popular in Danzhou, and after the people heard about the princess, they all agreed not to sell your food and not to leave you lodging." This is a silver bottle of noble people with a good heart, afraid that you are not familiar with the road and have nowhere to go, so I sent me to send you some tents on my back by the princess, and the mountain wind is cold at night, so that you can live in peace. ”
Zuo Xiaosi looked back and saw that the soldiers had taken down tents from the car and placed them on the ground. Zuo Xiaosi and Yu Zhongwen hurriedly thanked him. The general surnamed Xiao waved his hand and said, "You don't have to thank me, it's just that the nobleman of the silver bottle has ordered, and only let me come to send you a tent, so it's inconvenient to accompany you to drink." Wait for another day......" Speaking of this, I feel that it is inappropriate, the princess and the concubine are nine times out of ten, and Zuo Xiaosi will not necessarily come to Danzhou another day, so he changed his words and said: "See you another day and have a drink!" ”
"Definitely!" Zuo Xiaosi said, the general surnamed Xiao waved his hand, and the soldiers were busy pushing the cart back to the city, and then the city gate was closed again.
Zuo Xiaosi hurriedly asked people to find a flat and sheltered place and set up the tent, and more than ten marching tents were enough for their group to live. What was even more surprising was that in addition to the tent, there were several packages filled with hot lamb, dough, and milk wine.
"The people around the princess are so benevolent!" In the tent, Yu Zhongwen, who was full of food and drink, said to Zuo Xiaosi.
"That's it! A few days ago, I went to Yanqi Island, and the princess insisted on being commensurate with my brother and sister, and when she saw that it was getting late, she asked me to stay for one night before leaving. Although the princess did not agree that time, she was not so angry. Zuo Xiaosi thought about it and said, turned over and sat up again, and asked, "Lord Yu, do you think this marriage can still be done?" ”
Yu Zhongwen swaggered his old qualifications in front of Zuo Xiaosi at this time, and said very experiencedly: "It will definitely not be!" What do you think, the princess is a daughter, arrogant, and an unmarried woman, thin-skinned, General Zhou's refusal to marry is now rumored, how can the princess respond to this marriage again? Alas! It's a pity. ”
Zuo Xiaosi thought about it, if he was a princess, he would send out all the engagement tokens, but the other party didn't want to marry him, or reluctantly agreed because of other people's last words, can he still pull down his face to end this marriage?
Zuo Xiaosi lay down and said, "Master Zhang, rest early, and go back tomorrow morning." ”
The silver bottle complained: "Since they let them go, why do you want me to send someone to bring them tents to eat?" ”
Yu Liyan hurriedly asked, "You sent someone to deliver the tent, but did you say that you secretly let me send it behind my back?" ”
"Oh, it's really verbose, I told you just now, I said I sent it behind your back." Silver Bottle said impatiently. Only then did Yu Liyan put his mind at ease.
After a while, the silver bottle suddenly asked, "Princess, aren't you still thinking about the one surnamed Zhou?" ”
Yu Liyan said hatefully: "Who thought? I just can't bear to let the adults and juniors endure the cold and starve. That guy surnamed Zhou humiliated me so much, how could I despise myself again?! Sooner or later, we must return this humiliation to relieve our hatred! ”
