There was a fierce quarrel outside the tent, Han Ruzi sat up, his eyes were in a trance, he shook his head vigorously, and finally remembered where he was, and looked at the opposite side, the king of the East China Sea was sleeping soundly, lying on his side, covering his ears with one hand, and muttering: "Presumptuous, who is making noise here?" ”

It was already dawn, and Han Ruzi was surprised to find that he and the boots of the East Sea King were all cleaned up, he didn't take off his clothes when he slept, put on his boots, and dragged his stiff body out of the tent, the sun was dazzling, and he had to lower his head.

"I'm looking for him, and it's him. Hey, Emperor, let me in! Someone shouted.

Han Ruzi's tent was closest to the entrance of the camp, and he looked at the door, "This person is my guard, let him in." ”

Several of the guards guarding the camp gate finally let them go, pretending not to hear the word "emperor".

"You're back." Han Ruzi woke up and found that the sun was close to mid-heaven, and he had slept long enough this night.

Martha was covered in dust, his hair was unkempt, and he glared at him and said angrily, "Okay, I really know how to play." ”

"What's wrong?" Han Ruzi's anger towards him is unknown.

"Let me enter the city from the east, and then run away without saying a word, without informing me, I came out of the same road in the east city, rowed back to the riverside village, good fellow, even the rats ran away. I followed the footprints, and when I got to the official road, there were no footprints. I met a few fellow villagers, saying that yesterday a group of people called Huazi went to the city, I continued to chase, almost chased over, and in the town I heard that there was a group of beggars and rebels stationed nearby, I immediately came, but was stopped and not allowed to enter the ......"

Ma Da complained, and Han Ruzi pulled him into the account, "I didn't do it right, and I didn't leave you a letter." ”

"Hmm." Martha nodded at this time, indicating that he was not angry, "'I have written to ask for war on behalf of the tired marquis, my husband is relieved, you must not return to Beijing, remember.'" ’”

This is Cui Xiaojun's words, Han Ruzi understood, "Thank you." ”

"Early in the morning, what's the noise?" The king of the East Sea sat up, stunned for a while, and suddenly covered his face with his hands, gritting his teeth and screaming.

Martha whispered with a little horror, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"Nightmares. You go to rest. ”

Martha walked to the door and looked back again, expressing deep sympathy for the King of the East Sea.

"By the way, don't call me 'emperor' in the future, call me 'tired marquis'."

"Monkeys? You're straight, why are you called a curly monkey? ”

"Because...... I wasn't so straight when I climbed the tree. ”

Martha went satisfied.

The king of the East Sea still covered his face with his hands and said in a dull voice: "I dreamed that I was at home, and many servants were holding good things for me to choose, and my mother was watching from a distance, and I asked her to come over, but she just laughed and refused to move. ”

Han Ruzi also sympathized with the King of the East China Sea a little, "Mrs. Cui wants to kill you, but your mother won't." ”

"It's useless, she is living in the Cui family, she has no power and power, and she can't help me."

"Don't you have your own palace?"

"Yes, but I've never lived there, and I regard Cui's Mansion as my home." The East Sea King punched the blanket, "Is this what it's like to be abandoned?" I really don't know how you've survived all these years. ”

Han Ruzi smiled, and suddenly saw a stack of clothes on his bed, he didn't notice it in a daze just now, and walked over to pick it up, sure enough, it was all his own clothes, spotless.

The King of the East Sea didn't hear the sound, he removed his hands and glanced at his bed, "Hey, why do you have new clothes and I don't?" Don't the generals of the new barracks know that I'm here too? ”

"This is from the Tired Hou Mansion." Han Ruzi said.

"Oh." The king of the East China Sea was even more sad, and some people still remembered that he had become a complete outcast.

Han Ruzi was wondering when someone came in outside, "Master, are you awake." ”

"Zhang Youcai! You...... When did it come? ”

"I came early in the morning, and when I saw that my master was sleeping, I went out for a walk."

"Do you want to go to the house?"

"That's right, he's such a strange person, obviously he came from the master, but he asked me to tell the master, saying that he was going back to cooking, and he wouldn't send you a hundred miles."

Don't die is indeed a weirdo, a very powerful weirdo, can capture the head of the enemy alive in the chaos of the army, but it is a pity that such a person is unwilling to be used by the tired marquis, Han Ruzi can only feel regretful, now he can't subdue ordinary heroes in the rivers and lakes, let alone don't kill such a strange person.

"By the way, I just bumped into the man named Martha, for some reason, he was very angry when he saw me, and shouted a few words, where did I offend him?"

Han Ruzi smiled: "You set off later than him, but you arrived at the barracks first, so he was unhappy." ”

"I see. The owner first took a bath, and then changed into new clothes, old clothes...... I don't think so. ”

Before Han Ruzi could speak, the King of the East China Sea looked up to the sky and roared, "You did it on purpose, you did it on purpose, just to see my jokes, right?" ”

Han Ruzi had someone to serve, but the king of the East China Sea did not, which made him crazy with jealousy.

There is only one master in Zhang Youcai's eyes, and he disdains the king of the East China Sea, but he is in the way of the master's face, so he can't say anything, his eyes are turned up, and he ignores it.

The king of the East Sea put on his boots and strode out of the tent, not asking who had cleaned them up.

"Madame will be here later." Zhang Youcai said.

"She's coming? It's not safe here......"

"Madame said, if it is not safe, it is the same inside and outside the city." Zhang Youcai replied, Mrs. had expected what the tired marquis would say.

"Then I should indeed take a shower and change clothes, but there are many inconveniences here......"

"That's why you need someone like me." Zhang Youcai turned around and walked to the door, held up the tent curtain, and two volunteers carried in a large wooden barrel, followed by more than ten volunteers each carrying a small bucket of hot water, filled the big bucket, and retreated one by one.

"It's good that there's a town nearby." Zhang Youcai said with a smile.

Han Ruzi felt that his whole body was dirty, so he quickly took off his clothes, soaked in the water, and snorted comfortably.

"Alas, how can the master endure such suffering?"

"I can stand it, there will be more bitter days in the future, and it will be a hundred times stronger than being trapped in the Hou Mansion." Han Ruzi enjoyed the comfort of this moment down-to-earth, but he was also ready to roll in the dirt again, "You stay in the capital and ...... well"

"Stay in the capital? No, no, I told Madame, and Madame agreed, I left the palace because of the master, and I will follow the master wherever he goes. ”

"But ......"

Zhang Youcai wiped his back for the tired marquis, and said: "If there is no place in the master's army, I will ride a little donkey and follow behind, it may be a little slower, but I can always catch up." ”

Han Ruzi smiled: "Of course it's better to have you to serve, I just think we should share the weal and sorrow with the soldiers, they have no one to serve." ”

"Hehe, I'm afraid that the master misunderstood the meaning of the words 'sharing weal and woe': food, clothing, housing and transportation are the same, and people think, what is the purpose of being a soldier? Do you end up living a hard life like your master? The soldiers charged, and the master was going too? A few soldiers were killed, the army was still there, and if the master was ...... Then there would be nothing. ”

"Hey, you're getting sharp."

"It's not that I'm sharp-toothed, I went around the camp and heard a lot of good things about the master, but they were also very confused, they didn't know what to do in the future, fighting against the Huns really didn't have much attraction to them, it was not as good as the glory and wealth of reality, if the master was too poor, it wouldn't be able to attract them."

Han Ruzi smiled, feeling that Zhang Youcai was very reasonable, he only thought about "sharing weal and woe", but forgot one of the most important things: the people had already suffered enough and just wanted "weal and woe".

After taking a bath and washing his hair, Zhang Youcai dressed the tired marquis, combed his hair, and put on a hat, and after everything was in order, he said casually: "There is something very interesting, I heard many people talking about the 'queen mother', where did the 'queen mother' come from?" ”

"That's the daughter of Guiyihou, who is also in the army, and the volunteers don't recognize her and scream nonsense." Han Ruzi said calmly.

Zhang Youcai didn't ask too much, exited the tent, and asked someone to carry the bucket out.

After noon, another group of people came to the Tihou Mansion to remove the weeds and felt blankets in the tent, and put up simple beds, tables and chairs to make the accommodation as comfortable as possible.

The king of the East China Sea was envious and jealous, hiding in the distance and refusing to come, and soon after, the Cui Mansion also sent servants to send things to be used, even including a huge tent, he felt a little balanced, but he kept a cold face, pretending not to care.

At dusk, Cui Xiaojun came, entered the tent directly from the sedan chair, and smiled at the tired Hou Yanran.

The two sat opposite each other, hand in hand.

"I'm sorry I didn't keep my promise." Han Ruzi said guiltily.

"I'm not here to listen to an apology, I'm here to help you." Cui Xiaojun smiled, although she longed for a peaceful and quiet life for life, she knew that her husband was not an ordinary person, and she was proud of it, "Has the imperial court given the righteous army an official banner?" ”

"No, I'm still wondering, why didn't anyone urge me to enter the palace today?"

"That's because the Queen Mother doesn't think it's necessary. I met Yang Gong yesterday. ”

"What did he say?" Han Ruzi held his wife's hands tightly.

"He advised the Tired Marquis not to use the banner and turn the rebel army into a private army."

"Private part?"

"Well, the generals of the frontier can raise a group of soldiers by themselves, and they are not paid by the imperial court, usually no more than five hundred, but it doesn't matter if there are more in special periods."

"There are more than 700 rebels, how can I afford to raise so many people." Han Ruzi was deeply touched by the difficulty of raising an army.

"No matter how much you can afford." Cui Xiaojun said with a smile, "I got a sum of money, and when the tired marquis set off, Xiao Du Jiaotou will send it to the army." ”

"Where did you get the money?" Han Ruzi was surprised.

"There are not many people in the house, I can save a lot of money, and my mother also helped me get some, in short, you don't have to worry, if you lack anything, even if you send someone to send me a letter, I can always think of a way in the capital."

"Why am I so lucky to marry you? How much you're going to suffer if you marry me. ”

"I'm also lucky, you don't know how many noble children I've seen since I was a child......"

Han Ruzi let go of her hands, gently held her wife in her arms, her mood was rippling, and she said her truth for the first time, "I am the emperor, you are the queen, and no one can change it." ”

No one needs to be taught, and there is no need to prompt, Han Ruzi wants to leave an indelible memory on this night.
