158. Old knowledge of Tumochuan
The South Shop closed early, and all the goods were unloaded at the front store. Nangong Jin helped Yan Shuhan cook, and Du Ling took the children to clean up their things.
One night, Yan Shuhan was very happy, and so were the children, who were excited and didn't want to go back to the house to rest, so Nangong Jin simply took the family out to visit Tumochuan at night.
Yan Shuhan walked up to Nangong Jin and whispered, "There is a mission this time?" ”
"Yes."
"The brothers in the city seem to be almost gone, is there something wrong?"
Nangong Jin nodded, "It's because I'm afraid that something will happen to the brothers, and I may come back in a while." ”
"What are you going to do this time?"
"Is there any news about the Ming peace talks recently?"
Yan Shuhan shook his head, "After you left, the county lord of Nomin often came, but he didn't say anything. Originally, the little steward in the imperial tent said that he had accompanied the old princess to visit relatives, and he had been gone for half a year, and he would not come back until the beginning of spring. Before he left, he said that Zhao Shengenvoy wanted the Great Khan to fight the capital again, but the Great Khan did not agree immediately. ”
Nangong Jin sighed, "At the end of last month, Altan Khan hit Gyeonggi. After a pause, he said hatefully: "White Lotus Sect, the above told me to leave it alone." ”
"Yunshi, don't be impulsive. Now there are more congregants in the city. Even if there is only Zhao Sheng, he will know all kinds of demon methods, and you only have one person, and you have no chance of winning, forget it. ”
"Don't worry, I know my mission and won't act rashly." Nangong Jin smiled, "In the past few days, I'll go to find a man first, he's in the city?" ”
Yan Shuhan nodded, "Originally, I was going to visit relatives with the old princess, but I said that a marksman came from the north, so I didn't go." Now, you, the captain of the red team, have arrived, and he's afraid he's going to organize everyone to play polo again. ”
Nangong Jin sighed, "I haven't played for more than a year, and I'm rusty." ”
"You're not going to see Nomin?"
"What are you doing with her?"
Yan Shuhan looked at him helplessly, "At the beginning, you were the first to provoke others." Always give her an explanation, nothing, just break it? She is also a girl, and she waits for more than a year after you have been gone. ”
"I didn't tell her to wait. The task is over, is it still dragging on? It's not that I didn't break up with her, she wants to be like this, what can I do? ”
The two chatted, and the children finally got tired of shopping.
Nangong Jin built two bed boards in his room, let the children sleep on the pit, and he and Du Ling will spend one night, planning to clean up an empty room on the side tomorrow, and then build a pit in the room to live with Du Ling.
After two busy days, the problem was finally solved. Du Ling really gave people a consultation, because he didn't charge a consultation fee, which made people suspicious, and he only saw two poor men and didn't ask anything.
Nangong Jin cleaned herself up and went to the imperial tent area.
When Hannaji heard that he had arrived, he ran out of his arms, first giving him a big hug, and then pulling him directly to the racecourse to see if his equestrian skills had regressed, and whether he was qualified to play polo.
Nangong Jin was embarrassed by him, and after trying three times, he finally made Han reluctantly nod. He refused to let him go, saying that he would wait here for a few days, and when the marksman from the north came back from the other battalions, he would go to the competition again.
The two were talking excitedly, and they were still thinking about asking someone to compete with arrows.
The servant came to report, "Wang Sun, the lord of Nomin has arrived." ”
The two of them frowned at the same time, and Hannaji said unhappily, "Let her wait first." He still dragged Nangong Jin to the shooting range, and asked Nangong Jin to see a few tricks he learned from the marksman.
Before Han could shoot a few arrows, a woman in purple walked over, "Luo Yunshi! ”
Han frowned, blocking between her and Nangong Jin, "We are still competing with arrows, and we are not free now." ”
The woman didn't look at him at all, and stared straight at Nangong Jin behind him, "You come out." ”
Nangong Jin didn't move, "I don't think we have anything to say." ”
"What do you mean there's nothing to say? You go to the Central Plains and say go, why don't you tell me? I've been waiting for you! ”
"I've told you before, let's settle it. I don't know what you're waiting for. ”
The woman said angrily: "What do you mean? Did you ask me? ”
Han was also angry, "Okay, okay, he doesn't like you, I know it." Your marriage has already been decided, and even if you refuse to marry, it is impossible to marry a Han Chinese. We have to compete with arrows. ”
Nuo Min stared at Nangong Jin, "Is it because of this that you said forget it?" ”
"Why are women so annoying! Even if you are my clan sister, I will be angry. ”
Nuo Min ignored Han Naji and just stared straight at Nangong Jin. Nangong Jin ignored him, and Gu Zizi adjusted the bowstring.
After a while, Han felt that it was too boring, stomped his feet, and said to Nangong Jin: "It's boring, you make it clear first, and then look for me in the tent." ”
Seeing Han leave, Nuo Min took a few steps forward and looked up at him stubbornly: "Luo Yunshi, you said that although you are Han, you prefer the freedom of the grassland; You said that together you live very well; You said that if you are not there, the wild goose on the edge of the sky will represent you. You made me believe in you, and I believed. And you say, forget it? I disagree. I've been waiting for you for a year to tell you that I have my choice. ”
Nomin strode forward, as if to hug him. Nangong Jin hurriedly retreated to avoid it, and Nuo Min only grabbed his sleeve. A little annoyed, he looked at Nangong Jin even more sadly, "Why?!" My father told me that Han Chinese are not good people, but I don't believe it! I don't even need Han slaves anymore. Why? ”
Nangong Jin looked up at the sky, "Okay, your Abba is right." No, I just don't like it. ”
"It's that simple? I don't believe it. ”
"I also feel like I'm bad. I'm sorry, it's my fault. But after all, I am Han, and we should be realistic ....... ”
"What happened to the Han people? I've never disliked you! ”
"But I would at home! I won't marry you, you have to understand that the Ming and Tatars are still at war ....... ”
"What does this have to do with us?" Nuo Min was ruthless, "I can go with you!" ”
"Where to go? I have a home in Tomogawa! ”
"I know, she's your eldest brother's wife, and I don't mind if you take care of her."
Nangong Jin shook his head, "Nuo Min, forget it." If you want to feel good about the past, keep that memory. Hello everyone, get together, disperse, and be friends. ”
Everyone was silent for a long time, and Nuo Min stared at him, his expression slowly calming down, "My Abba wants to see you." Seeing Nangong Jin's impatient expression, "Don't get me wrong. Half a year ago, Zhao Quan wanted the Great Khan to attack Daming and came to find my father. You said that you can only use soft ones to deal with Zhao Quan. So, that time, my father was also polite, but he didn't agree to anything. A few days ago, Zhao Quan came again, and he borrowed 500 cavalry from my father, saying that it was the meaning of the Great Khan. Five hundred is not less, and my father doesn't want to borrow it. If you don't come back, you may borrow it in the next few days. I heard you're back today, so my Abba wanted to ask you what you have in mind. ”
Nangong Jin frowned, "Didn't you just fight, but you still want to fight?" I'm afraid that it is deliberately consuming the troops of the Jinong family, why didn't the Great Khan borrow it? ”
That's what my Abba meant. Now in the past? ”
"I'll ask if Han is willing to be together, after all, he is the grandson of the king."
Nomin looked disdainful, "He only knows wrestling, hunting, polo, and he is a teenager, and he still seems to have not grown up." ”
"Although your clan is after Jinong, it is Altan Khan who is now in power. It doesn't hurt for you to raise Han by the Great Khan since he was a child, and to be close to you Abba. Nangong Jin walked past her as she spoke, and went to take Hannaji's big tent.
Nomin followed behind him, looking at his back with a slight smile on his face.
**********
When Hannaji heard that he wanted him to discuss some matter of borrowing cavalry, he was instantly uninterested. Nangong Jin was so good at talking about it, and even moved out of his ancestor Genghis Khan, so he reluctantly said that he would go with him. pouted all the way, and even more incorrectly looked at Nomin.
Amurtaiji was the youngest son of Melgenjinang, and after his father's death, he followed his uncle Altan Khan until he settled in Tabansheng. Although I was grateful to my uncle for raising me when I was a child, when I grew up, I somewhat understood the meaning of nearby surveillance. Because even after so many years, Amur can still command some of the old troops in Ordos. However, Amur responded to his name - peace and ease.
"Taiji." Nangong Jin followed Hannaji and saluted Amur.
When Amr saw him, he seemed to be more enthusiastic than when he saw Jianghan, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, calling him by his name, "Chaolu, I haven't been here for a long time." ”
On the side, Nuo Min smiled and said, "Abba, it's been more than a year." ”
"Yes, yes, our family Nuo Min counts the days every day, and he doesn't even marry anyone, just waiting for you to come back. Chaolu, you can give a word. Although Amr smiled, his eyes were no longer so kind.
Nuo Min hurriedly said to Nangong Jin in Chinese: "Don't get me wrong, my Abba really asked you to talk about that matter." Now it's just, it's just ....... "I didn't know how to explain it for a while. But Nangong Jin didn't look at him, as if he hadn't heard.
Although Amr didn't understand, he still frowned, "Nomin, you still have to explain to him?" Well, okay, Abba won't bully him again. He waved his hand, "We're going to talk about men, you go out first." ”
"Abba......." Nuo Min looked at Amur, then at Nangong Jin, pouted and left the room unhappy.
Seeing her go out, Amr said with some reproach: "You told her?" ”
Nangong Jin nodded
"Then why did she wait for you for a year?" Amr changed his tone and said seriously: "I'm not a stick to beat mandarin ducks, don't blame me, this is no way." Didn't you Han people say that you are the right family? ”
Nangong Jin smiled, "Taiji, Chaolu understands." In the Central Plains, I also have a family, and it is not suitable for the county lord. ”
Amur smiled and said, "I know that you are a person who understands, and I like you." Then he looked at the man who was slumped in his chair and shook his head. continued to say to Nangong Jin: "I will compensate you." Even if I can't give it to high-ranking officials, but Houlu, I can still afford it, just do things for me. ”
"Money?" He yawned and jumped up on the side, and said to Nangong Jin, "I can afford the money." Look at Amur again, "Taiji, Chaolu is very busy, I also want him to help, I may not have time to do things for you." ”
Nangong Jin smiled and pulled over the handler, "Don't worry, I've always been relieved about your business, and I brought you something this time, remember what you said about the Kowloon Cup last time?" ”
"You brought it?" Han asked happily.
"yes."
"Don't say it sooner!"
"It's not that I'm not available. Now, let's do Taiji a favor together and go get the Kowloon Cup later. ”
Hearing him say this, Han sat back happily again, Amur shook his head helplessly, and also beckoned Nangong Jin to sit down, and let people serve milk tea.
"It's not too big, it's just that Zhao Sheng's envoy borrowed five hundred cavalry from me, and I was a little reluctant. He also said that he meant the Great Khan, but if the Great Khan borrowed it, why didn't he tell me himself? But it's not good to ask like this, it's too bad to give Zhao Sheng's face, and it's not a big deal, maybe the Great Khan will admit it, so won't I be very faceless? Amr was in a dilemma.
"Zhao Shengenvoy didn't say why?" Nangong Jin asked.
"Say, war."
"War? Five hundred cavalry, it's not enough to fight, right? Did he ask anyone else to borrow it? Nangong Jinqi said.
Amr was embarrassed, "I don't know about the others, but my friends and brothers don't here. ”
"When?"
"Yes, he'll be back in the next few days. I borrowed it half a month ago last time. Amr was helpless, "I know I'm too good to say, but I can't say anything if I refuse." ”
Nangong Jin thought for a while and asked, "Where is the county lord?" ”
Amur looked at Nangong Jin inexplicably, "The Great Khan wants her to marry farther away, saying that it is from the Warat Department." But I think she can marry back to Ordos, and I was optimistic about it a year ago. Nomin has always disagreed, and the people of Warat have not been so kind to wait for her, so they ....... When Amr said this, he felt that Nomin's wait for this year was worth it, and he was secretly happy.
"In this case, it is better for Taiji to take the whole family back to the Ordos grassland to have a look, and let Nuo Min get in touch with the men on the grassland, maybe Taiji doesn't have to worry so much about coming and going."
Amr still didn't understand that this was talking about borrowing soldiers, how to talk about Nomin's marriage. nodded, and said indispensably: "This is okay, you are in the big board, and it is not so easy for her to die." ”
"So, it's better to leave now." Nangong Jin smiled.
"Now?" Amr was a little reluctant, "It's snowing, the road is difficult to walk, and Ordos is not close." ”
"yes. Therefore, Taiji asked for cavalry protection. After all, I didn't come, and Taiji wasn't in such a hurry, since I came, Taiji had to be in a hurry to break Nuomin's thoughts. ”
Amur seemed to be enlightened in an instant, and said happily: "Yes, yes! I only have a total of 800 cavalry in Tumochuan, and I can take them all. After all, if you want to travel with a family, you should have more people to escort you. Then he asked worriedly, "Why don't you leave?" Why don't you go talk to her? ”
"Let's just say that my grandmother dreamed of God, and she had to be the chief priest and sacrifice to the gods."
Amur laughed, "Chaolu, you really have any idea, just open your mouth." It's a pity that you're not a Mengren, otherwise, I wouldn't object to it. ”
"Taiji is lifted."
"Okay, don't you want to go to see a cup with Han?" Look at the impatient Hannaji, "Go, go, I'm going to leave here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I have to prepare, and I have to go and say goodbye to the Great Khan in a while." ”
