Chapter 79: The First Love Letter
Sending Pei Jin away, Zhao Junsheng felt that time was pressing, and he had to send the news to Huajiabao as soon as possible to let Mulan stop the price increase, and he couldn't leave a handle on people.
He took a piece of white paper and spread it on the table, dipped the pen in ink, thought for a moment and wrote, and waved it.
He packed the letter paper in an envelope, sealed it with fire paint, and called Liang Yi, who was reading a book next to him, and asked, "Liang Yi, come here!" ”
Liang Yi, a half-grown child, immediately put down the scroll and walked over and asked, "Young Master, what do you want to order?" ”
"How are you learning to ride a horse these days?"
Liang Yi replied: "Back to the young master, you can ride a horse and run!" ”
Children learn things quickly, Zhao Junsheng sighed in his heart, looked at the half-grown child, and said: "Liang Yi, you are thirteen years old, you are all people who can start a family and become the master of the house, today I will give you an errand, which is a test for you, how about it?" ”
Liang Yi straightened his small chest: "Please command, young master!" ”
"You should have heard your grandfather say about Huajiabao, today you send a letter to the young master to Huajiabao, and give the letter to Sister Hua you saw last time! You rode out of the south gate, ran south along the river, ran for more than an hour and saw a large number of cattle and sheep, and asked where Sister Hua was, naturally someone will take you to find her, understand? ”
"Understand, young master, don't worry, I promise to deliver the letter to Sister Hua!"
"Good!" Zhao Junsheng patted Liang Yi's little shoulder, and said: "After the letter is handed over to her, tell her the two words 'up limit', and she will know what's going on." Have lunch in Huajiabao and come back, don't delay on the way. Let's go, I'll send you out! ”
Seeing Liang Yi riding a horse and leaving the gate of the Taishou Mansion, Zhao Junsheng turned around and returned, and was stopped before he reached the door of the class room of the Fa Cao Department: "Zhao joins the army!" ”
Zhao Junsheng stopped and looked back, it turned out to be a small official under the guard, equivalent to an ordinary staff member of the city government office, and asked jokingly: "Hu Menxia, what are your orders?" ”
"Oh, how dare I tell you? That's the case, Lord He, who is in charge of the army, told the chief officers of each department to go to the lobby to discuss the matter, and go immediately, don't let the general wait for a long time! ”
After the reform of the imperial court, all the history of Peng was renamed to join the army, and this Lord He is called He Min, and he is an official who presides over the meeting in the Taishou Mansion.
As soon as Zhao Junsheng heard it, he knew that Wan Dugui had already seen the official document sent by Pei Jin, and he was afraid that he would immediately organize officials and carry soldiers and horses to meet him.
"Then we have to get there!" Zhao Junsheng said and immediately walked briskly towards the Taishou Hall.
When he came to the meeting hall, Wan Dugui was already sitting in the hall, and the chief officials of each department walked in one by one to bow their hands to Wan Dugui, and then walked to the side to stand, and he did the same, standing on the left side next to the superintendent of the post and joining the army.
The officials soon arrived, and Wan Dugui asked, "He Min, are all the people here?" ”
He Miao swept his eyes, bowed and said, "General Hui, everyone is here!" ”
"Let's get started!"
"Yes!" He Min agreed, and immediately said to the officials: "This time I summoned you to follow the general out of the house, give you half an hour, go home and pack two sets of clothes, you can bring an entourage to accompany you, you are not allowed to bring more." Liang Sima, the barbarian Duwei Tuoba Qin, Deng Tong, and Duwei Tang Mang stayed, and the others could go and prepare! ”
The officials didn't have time to know where to go and what to do, they didn't ask rationally, and they didn't dare to ask, if Wandugui wanted to let them know, he would definitely say, if he didn't say it, he would keep it secret for the time being, they stood up and saluted, and then exited the hall in turn, and each quickly dispersed.
Wan Dugui looked at Liang Peng, Tuoba Qin and Deng Tong, and said slowly: "General Ben has just received the official letter from above, and in two days, His Majesty the Emperor's imperial car will enter the territory of my Liang County!" ”
The three of them were a little shocked when they heard the news, after all, there were no relevant rumors and news before, and the sudden arrival of the emperor made them inevitably a little at a loss.
Regardless of whether they accepted the news or not, Wan Du Gui continued: "General Ben has ordered two thousand soldiers and horses to be gathered to meet and escort them!" Liang Peng, you command the remaining 3,000 soldiers and horses for me to sit in the camp and deal with emergencies at any time! Deng Tong, before the royal driver arrives in Suiyang City, you must organize the people to go out of the city to meet the imperial driver; Captain Tang Mang, when the royal car arrives, you must arrange sentry posts along the way, and do not let the people and people with bad intentions rush to the middle of the road to collide with the royal car, if something goes wrong, your head is not enough to cut off! Tuoba Qin, you give General Ben a good management of the Hu people of all ethnic groups, and you can't let them make trouble! General Ben said again, if something happens, Your Majesty wants to cut off General Ben's head, and General Ben will cut off your head first, understand? ”
These people looked awe-inspired, and immediately clenched their fists and agreed loudly: "The lowly (last general) understands!" ”
In less than a quarter of an hour, two thousand cavalry had arrived at the gate of the Taishou Mansion, all of them barbarian warriors, all of them fierce.
Soon, Zhao Junsheng returned to the Taishou Mansion with a cloth bag on his back, and while walking, he looked at the two thousand barbarian cavalry, and it was the first time he saw the garrison soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and this oppressive momentum alone was extraordinary.
Since crossing over, Zhao Junsheng also has some understanding of the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty, as far as he knows, the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty at this time consisted of three parts: the first was the middle soldier, that is, the central army; the second is the garrison; The third is the county soldiers. Among them, the middle soldiers were mainly Xianbei soldiers, who were responsible for guarding the palace and foreign expeditions; The soldiers of the garrison are all from the barbarian tribe and are responsible for guarding the border passes; Most of the soldiers of the county soldiers came from the Han people, and were responsible for maintaining law and order, transporting grain and grass materials, siege equipment, etc., and the Han soldiers generally did not participate in the conquest and could only serve as auxiliaries.
Zhao Junsheng had also killed many people after crossing over, he could feel the murderous aura emanating from these barbarian soldiers, they should have had several combat experiences, in terms of military discipline and military appearance, the quality of these people was already quite good.
Wandu Gui Commander really has a set! Zhao Junsheng sighed in his heart.
The officials and their entourage quickly gathered in front of the Taishou Mansion, and Zhao Junsheng also called a scribe named Han Kun from the Facao Office to be his entourage.
With the wave of Wan Dugui's raised hand, the soldiers and horses and the officials who went to the county border to meet them slowly set off.
Huajiabao.
Ma Er was riding a horse and grazing with a few burghers, when he saw a child running over on a horse in the distance in the north, and when he got closer, it turned out to be Liang Yi, the son of Liang Lone, knowing that he was now following Zhao Junsheng, he immediately shouted: "Liang boy, why are you here?" ”
Liang Yi had been with Ma Er for a few days, so he naturally recognized him, and Le Ma stopped and said, "Uncle Ma, my young master asked me to deliver a letter to the young lady!" ”
"Young lady? Oh, oh, you come with me, I'll take you to Miss! Ma Er explained to a few burgers, and then rode towards Huajiabao with Liang Yi.
Ma Er and Liang Yi met Mulan at the fur warehouse in the fort, and Mulan was directing the burgers to pile up bags of washed and dried wool.
"Miss, my uncle sent Xiao Liangyi to deliver a letter to you!"
Hua Mulan looked back and said with a smile: "It's Liang Yi!" Let's go, go to the house with my sister to drink saliva! ”
"Yes, young lady!"
Hua Mulan's face flushed when she heard this, and the two then came to Hua's house.
Liang Yi took a sip of water and took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Mulan, who took the letter and opened it, only to see a few lines of poetry written on the white paper: "Last night's stars and last night's wind, the west side of the painting building and the east of Guitang; There are no colorful phoenix wings, and the heart is a little clear."
Hua Mulan's face was flushed after reading it, but her heart was sweet, and she muttered to herself shyly: "Bad guy! This is the first time he's written a love letter to me! ”
