Chapter 022: Good Brother
Qiao Yun shook his head frequently: "Not only did Xianggong not say it, but he was not allowed to ask, and he was angry when he asked." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I have never seen Xiang Gong angry with Erniang. ”
Swallowing the last piece of snack, Li Ang said frankly: "The Jurchens have indeed sent troops to invade the south again, and this time it ......"
"What's wrong with this?" Qiao Yun suddenly became nervous, and his eyes were full of panic.
Seeing this, Li Ang could only pretend to smile lightly: "Although there is some trouble, Shouchun is far away, and there is a prefect in charge, so it doesn't matter much." Around, you've been going out less lately. ”
"Really? But Erniang said that if she knocked over the bird's nest, the eggs would all be broken, Da Song is the bird's nest, and we are the bird's eggs......"
Li Ang heard that her tone had changed, and sighed secretly, then leaned down to meet her eye level, and said with relief: "Don't worry, it's man-made, Da Song is not so easy to overturn eggs." ”
Qiao Yunxu felt the sincerity, optimism and hope conveyed in his eyes, and after taking a deep breath, the whole person was a little lighter.
However, the girl didn't know that this guy was a part-time actor, and the situation in Da Song had nothing to do with "optimism" at all.
Just five days ago, the Jurchen army of the two routes met in Bianliang and attacked the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.
The people of Tokyo shared the same hatred and did not want to be slaves of the country, so they opened the arsenal that had been sealed by the imperial court for many years, and as many as 300,000 people came to collect weapons.
However, he has the intention to kill the thief, and he has no power to return to the sky.
The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty and the Chinese Wu of the Dynasty had already been frightened by the strong Jurchens, and Zhao Huan personally went to the Jin army camp to offer a surrender table. At the time when Li Ang and Qiaoyun were talking, he also sent Zhao Xu, the king of Ji, and Zhao Qi, the king of Jing, to congratulate the two commanders of the Jin army on the New Year.
And Zong Han and Zong Bi even sent someone back to congratulate them, which made Zhao Huan and his big artist father feel that Dajin was afraid that he was going to leave us as a puppet or something, right?
Facts have proved that the Jurchens later named Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan as "Duke of Dude" and "Marquis of Heavy Faintness", although the original intention was to insult, but they also told the truth nonsense......
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shangyuan Festival.
Compared with the solemn Chinese New Year's Eve and the solemn Zhongyuan, the Shangyuan Festival can be called the most lively festival from the official to the civil in the Song Dynasty.
Every year on this day, all the states, counties and cities with slightly better conditions have to hold lantern festivals without exception. From the emperor to the local officials, they not only had fun with the people, but also distributed red envelopes.
Ordinary people linger in the lantern market for five days in a row, buying lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, watching fireworks, there are many patterns, and they are never tired of it. And women do not have to be bound by etiquette during the festival, "wandering the streets and alleys, from night to night, men and women are confused", and naturally there are some stories of wind and snow, and concubines.
However, in the city of Shouchun Mansion in the second year of Jingkang, there were no lanterns, no fireworks, and no children's laughter on the day of the Shangyuan Festival.
Instead, there were soldiers patrolling the market, and frightened eyes in the cracks and windows of the doors.
It is reported that the giant thief "Ding Yijian" has broken through Maozhou, and is now leading a large army to Shouchun. Today's latest news shows that the thieves have passed Quetuan Town, less than forty miles away from the capital city!
On the tower of the city gate, Li Ang was huddled in the middle of a group of soldiers with guns and sticks, looking out of the city.
Although as early as ten days ago, Kang Yunzhi, the prefect of Shouchun, went to various counties and towns to order the gathering of strong men, the evacuation of villages, and the accumulation of materials to prevent thieves from violating the border.
But where are those peasants who live in the countryside who are willing to give up the pots and pots, chickens, ducks, cows and sheep at home? Until today, as soon as he heard the thief speak, he had to help the old and the young, drag the pig and morning glory into the city to take refuge.
Now most of these people who go to the city live in the suburbs, and those in the remote villages, I am afraid that it will be too late......
sighed in his heart, and turned his head to look at the guards in the city, but he didn't see a set of armor, and the soldiers only wore soap silk cotton jackets and fan yang hats. The instruments are also varied, there are guns with poles, dragsticks, and the most majestic is the military man standing beside him, holding a moon covering knife more than six feet long.
But big brother, can we grind the rust first and then take it out? You're making it like an unearthed artifact, who can you bluff?
Afraid that looking at it any longer would affect his confidence, Li Ang was about to go down to the city, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the crowd of people under the city, and said in his heart, why did he run out of the city?
He hurried down to the city, waited at the entrance of the door, and in a few moments he saw the man come in with a sad face.
"Brother Zifeng."
"Xunchen?" That person was Jiang Jin, and when he saw Li Ang's face, he couldn't help but show joy, but he immediately went away again, and he came up to complain. "Tell me about you, move without notice? It's just a trip for me, I clearly remember that it was your house, and I went straight to the atrium with a big grin, but a big fat man rushed out, and he was going to be rough without saying a word! It scared me...... Look at it, all the shoes have run away! ”
Li Ang didn't care to explain to him, but asked, "Brother has something to do with me?" ”
"Didn't I think the thieves were coming? So he packed up two rooms in the house, and waited for his uncle and aunt and you to come into the city to live. As a result, I waited left and right and waited for no one to come, so I had no choice but to go out of the city to invite. Behold...... Hi! ”
Seeing his gloomy appearance, Li Ang's heart burst with an indescribable feeling.
In fact, the relationship between Li Bai and Jiang Yi, the two brothers, is not very harmonious, if it weren't for the help of his son to get a floating ticket to escape service, Li Daguan would not have had contact with Jiang Xueyu for many years.
But Jiang Zhen was not affected by the grievances of his elders at all, and still regarded Li Ang as his own family. When he was in school, he would come to him twice in three days to have fun, and now he can venture out of the city in times of crisis......
At that moment, Li Ang thanked him for his kindness, and he lost everything, so Jiang Zhen said: "Then let's go, take me to recognize the door." ”
"Don't hide it from my brother, now the house is full of villagers who came to defect, and I slept with two big men who picked their feet last night, that ...... Why is your smile so ambiguous? ”
"You know me." Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows.
"I can't talk to you seriously!" Leon was furious. "Come back, you should have been out for most of the day, and my uncle and aunt must be worried."
Speaking of this, Jiang Zhen stopped joking, and left after telling the little brother a few words.
"Oh, by the way, remember to thank my uncle and aunt on my behalf, and say that I have received it with kindness! Be sure to come to the door another day! ”
"Got it!"
Seeing that the other party limped into the crowd with one bare foot, Li Ang was really moved. It's been half a year since I came here, and I should have met a lot of people, and there are even court officials like Kang Yunzhi.
If you really want to talk about friends and brothers, there is only one Jiang Jin.
sighed for a while, the city gate became more and more crowded and chaotic, Li Ang looked at the frightened faces, and then looked at the guards on the city who had no appearance, and his heart was empty......
