Chapter 443: Escorting Grain and Grass

In the north of Shaoxi Mansion, under the city gate tower, there are two groups of officers and soldiers with torches in their hands. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info A city guard team leader hurriedly ran up to the city gate tower and saluted respectfully to a young man: "Lord Li, the convoy is here." ”

Li Xiang's eyes were slightly closed, half lying on the Taishi chair, his feet stretched out on the tea table. At the first sound, he hummed, as if he was half asleep and half awake.

Hearing this, the head of the city guard team quietly retreated.

Honglian changed into men's clothes, looking heroic, a little less feminine and a little more heroic.

"Hey, lazy pig, you know how to sleep!" Red Lotus said angrily.

"Ahh Oh......" Li Xiang woke up, stretched his sleeves and wiped his saliva, looking like he hadn't woken up in a daze.

"What's the matter?" Li Xiang looked at the red lotus and asked.

"Zhao Er, they're here." Red Lotus gave him an angry look.

"Oh?" Li Xiang rubbed his eyes, got up and went downstairs.

Zhao Er rode his horse to the city gate, turned over and dismounted, and saluted Li Xiang: "My lord, all twenty carts of grain and grass have arrived." ”

"Okay, good work."

"Hey, hey! It's a bit tiring indeed. Zhao Er said with a smile.

"Let's go, go upstairs for a cup of tea, rest for a while, and wait for Feng Kang's gang to receive the grain and grass."

Twenty taels of carriages full of grain and grass were parked in the open space in front of the city gate, and Li Xiang and Zhao Er sat on the city gate tower drinking tea and chatting, waiting for Feng Kang and others to come to receive the grain and grass.

Zhao Er took a sip of tea, frowned, and said, "My lord, this matter is very important, and I am a little worried about my humble position?" ”

"Oh? Tell me about it? ”

"I'm worried that someone will sabotage your lord's plan, and if someone opens the box without permission, it will be troublesome." Zhao Er said worriedly.

The grain and grass on the carriage were not packed in sacks, but in large boxes.

"Didn't you have a seal on the box?"

"Yes! I put a seal! ”

"That's fine, it's fine!"

Zhao Er was surprised, and said in his heart, is Li Xiang really not afraid of someone opening the box? Why did he dare to be so relieved?

Just when Zhao Er was thinking about it, Feng Kang came on horseback with three hundred heroes from the rivers and lakes.

Seeing this, Li Xiang hurriedly went downstairs to greet him. More than 300 people rode a tall horse, the momentum was huge, the person in front of that was Feng Kang, on the left was a handsome young man in white riding a white horse, and on the right was Luda.

When Li Xiang saw the handsome guy riding a white horse, his eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: It seems that this chick really loves to be in the limelight, not to mention, she really has a bit of the temperament of Prince Charming.

The group rode to a stop five feet in front of Li Xiang. Feng Kang, Luda, and Wu Lie turned over and dismounted, bowed down and said, "Grass people Feng Kang, see your lord." ”

Li Xiang returned the salute with a smile and said, "Brother Feng, there are all the brothers." As he spoke, he glanced at the handsome young man on the white horse, and saw that he had not dismounted and saluted himself.

"Don't dare, don't dare, the country has difficulties and responsibilities, and I will do my best!"

Li Xiang nodded, raised his hand and pointed to the more than twenty carriages: "You see, this is the grain and grass transported to the naval army camp, a total of twenty carts." All of them are loaded in wooden crates and affixed with the seal of the imperial court. It's not that I, Li Xiang, don't believe you, everyone understands that now that the two countries are at war, the enemy army is pervasive, and there is no big mistake in prudence, I hope you brothers can understand the painstaking efforts of this official. ”

When Feng Kang heard this, he thought for a while and said, "My lord, what do you mean ......?"

"Not bad! Whoever takes the initiative to open the seal will be a spy of the enemy, and everyone will be punished. Please brothers supervise each other, these 20 carts of grain are related to the safety of thousands of soldiers in the naval camp, here, I Li Xiang promised, after the grain and grass are transported to the naval camp, each person will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver, everyone will take it to buy wine and eat, if you want to join the army, it is naturally the best, this official will never treat everyone badly. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone talked about it, and Zhao Er finally knew why Li Xiang dared to make a guarantee, it turned out that he had already thought of a countermeasure. The heart said: It seems that I am far from Master Li, alas......

"Master Li is right, if anyone dares to open the box, that person must be a spy of the enemy country. I, Xiong Tianfei, support Master Li......"

"I also support Lady Lee's ......"

"We must all supervise each other, and we must not let the spies of the enemy country destroy this batch of grain and grass."

Li Xiang looked around at everyone and said firmly: "Brothers can understand the painstaking efforts of this official, this official is very pleased, everyone must strictly guard these grains and grasses to prevent the enemy country's spies from poisoning the grain and grass!" ”

"Ah......h

Everyone exclaimed, their hearts were half cold, in case someone poisoned the grain and grass, wouldn't it harm the soldiers of the naval battalion, thinking of this, everyone's eyes were cold, seeing that no one wanted to be a good person, and they were more cautious.

"Lord Li, I must strictly guard the grain and grass, even if I sleep, I have to keep one eye open." Feng Kang said with an oath.

"Okay, Brother Feng, it's hard all the way, be careful, this is a thousand taels of silver tickets, take it on the road, don't treat your brother badly." Li Xiang handed a thousand taels of silver tickets to Feng Kang and arched his hand.

Feng Kang took the silver ticket and thanked him.

Li Xiang looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost dawn, let's go!"

"Yes!" As he spoke, Feng Kang turned around and shouted to the people behind him, "Brothers, let's go!" ”

"Da Da Da ......"

Twenty-two carriages loaded with grain and grass slowly walked out of the city, Feng Kang walked in the front, and the rest of the people guarded on both sides of the convoy. Li Xiang looked at the fading convoy, sighed lightly, and wanted to leave, but at this moment, he caught a glimpse of an extremely familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

The chick didn't even leave? Oh my! She was looking at me, and her eyes scared me, like a hungry she-wolf staring at a lovely prey. Oh no, she's attacking me, she's coming, and there's still ten steps left, should I turn around and run?

Ouyang Qiao led the white horse towards him, his arrogant expression was like a little mare in heat who couldn't find a mate, and it was not pleasing to anyone.

"I'm also going back to Chongqing, and I'll go with you by the way." Ouyang Qiao said lukewarmly, and led the little white horse away in a chic manner.

"Ah......, she will also be in Chongqing? And with me, hehe! It is destined to be an extraordinary trip. ”

Ouyang Qiao's arrogance and arrogant ambition teased the man's strong desire to conquer, Li Xiang's excitement was overflowing, it seems that the old saying is true, what is not easy to get is the best. When the group returned to the Li Mansion, Li Xiang had always been very arrogant, and he rarely paid attention to things in life, usually because of the subordinates.

Zhao Er went back to the room to pack up his things, and Zhao Yi and Zhao Si each sat at the stone table in the front yard with a burden on their backs, chatting.

Li Xiang returned to the room, searched everywhere, and after looking for no result, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Where are the underwear?" Whoever sees it, hand it over quickly......"

When Honglian heard this, she shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said to herself: "It's really a master's life." ”

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Who? Are you here to deliver panties? ”

"Open the door!"

"Bah! It's Lian'er......" Li Xiang smiled and opened the door.

Seeing Honglian looking at him coldly, Li Xiang subconsciously took a step back and said in horror: "You...... You don't come over ......."

Honglian glanced at him, stretched out his hand and pointed to the dresser, and said coldly: "Go and sit down, if you dare to talk nonsense again, hum!" You know the end. ”

Li Xiang muttered his face and sat honestly opposite the dresser, Honglian personally groomed and dressed him, and Li Xiang stared at the "beautiful man" in the bronze mirror opposite. After a long time, Li Xiang's originally frightened expression gradually became natural.
