Zheng Guocai looked at him and stopped talking, sighed for a while and slapped him on the shoulder, his face full of embarrassment. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 He looked around, and finally pulled Li Yongzhong to his side, lowered his voice and said to him: "This is not the place to talk, go back to the camp first, there are some things that are your elders, it is not good to open this mouth, and I will talk to Zhong Guan'er when I go back." ”

The two of them went back without saying a word, Zheng Guocai went directly to the camp of Team D, entered Li Yongzhong's tent, sat down on the horse, took off his helmet, and untied the armor on the outside of his straight body, the clothes inside were soaked with sweat, and Li Yongzhong was also sweating profusely. Qin Yong, the personal soldier on duty of Team D, hurriedly went outside to fetch a basin of water for the two people, and served Li Yongzhong to take off his armor and hat, he went out with dirty water again, and then came in to boil water and make tea for the two people, and he was as busy as a spinning top.

Li Yongzhong saw that he was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, so he quickly stopped him, and scolded half-truthfully: "You just have to watch outside, do I have no hands or no feet for your team officer?" Can you keep up with you? Serious errands matter! ”

Qin Yong poured water into the tea bowl first, and then straightened up with the kettle and said with a smile: "Zhong Guan'er has been tired a lot these days, and I am fine now, so what can I do if I serve Zhong Guan'er?" However, seeing that Li Yongzhong's face really sank, he hurriedly said with a smile before Li Yongzhong got angry: "I'll go, let's go!" Sure enough, he put the kettle aside, lifted the tent curtain and went out.

Zheng Guocai looked at the interaction between Li Yongzhong and his own soldiers in amazement, and said with emotion for a while: "The soldiers in Zhongguan'er's team are really of the same heart as you!" Looking at this pro-soldier, you will know that even if you have been with me for a few years, there is no such careful and intimate person in front of Zhongguan'er! ”

"A soldier has a scale in his heart, don't think they are so foolish, the world is average, you treat him well, he treats you well." Li Yongzhong didn't want to talk more about this with Zheng Guocai, so he changed the topic after a brief conversation. He picked up the tea bowl, took the lid and skimmed the tea foam on his head, took a sip, and then asked Zheng Guocai in a slow voice: "What does Brother Zheng mean by that?" How did that Hou officer, who had never been in contact with him before, and had never heard of his deeds, had a problem with me? ”

Zheng Guocai glanced at him, his face became more and more heavy, although he was a little open-minded, but he was quite upright and open-minded, so many of the officials and soldiers were blind. sighed again, didn't look at Li Yongzhong, just stared at the tea bowl in his hand and smiled bitterly for a while, looked up and asked him, but said something else: "Zhong Guan'er's family heard that it is a merchant?" ”

"Yes." Although Li Yongzhong was puzzled, he only pressed it in his heart, his face was not obvious, he nodded slightly, and said: "My family is a salt merchant of the Fushun generation, and when I come here, it is the seventh generation." ”

"Then you want to come to Zhongguan'er's house, and there are some Kabuki officials?" Zheng Guocai didn't wait for Li Yongzhong to answer, and simply said in one breath: "There is an order from the imperial court, officials are not allowed to engage in prostitution, and Zhong Guan'er knows it." Of course, the same is true in our army. At this point, he looked a little embarrassed, obviously deeply embarrassed by what he was about to say: "Although there is a battalion in this army. prostitutes, but they were not allowed to bring them when they went out on the expedition, so they ......" He swallowed his spit and said with difficulty: "There are many people who are good at the south wind." ”

He glanced at Li Yongzhong, turned his head and didn't dare to look at him again, and said very lightly and quickly: "This Hou team official is the person in this way, Zhong Guan'er probably doesn't know, after reading it, he hated you for stealing his limelight, so he told many people, you don't know the current affairs now, what can you do if you have some abilities?" It's not that he has a good face...... It's just a matter of sleeping with you," Zheng Guocai said in a soft voice, and said vaguely: "Finally...... Gotta get you back. ”

Li Yongzhong was drinking water when he paused, and the slightly relaxed expression on his face instantly froze, he couldn't believe his ears! looked at Zheng Guocai dumbfounded, hoping that the other party would suddenly tell him that those were just jokes, but Zheng Guocai avoided his gaze, looked away, and nodded stiffly-

"Smack!"

Like an enraged lion, the young man jumped up from his horse in a rage, and threw the tea bowl in his hand to the ground without thinking! The tea splashed and splashed all over his boots! He fanned his nose, gasped for breath in his mouth, large green tendons bloomed on his forehead, his hands clenched into fists, and his eyes were blood-red!

Outside, Qin Yong heard the movement, his heart was uneasy, and he deliberately raised his voice through the door curtain and asked, "Team officer, but is there something?" ”

Li Yongzhong slowed down his breathing, his chest cavity exploded like a swelling pain, and he squeezed out two words: "It's okay!" He added: "You are optimistic about the outside, and no one is allowed to come in!" ”

Zheng Guocai saw that his teeth were clucking, his face was gray, but his eyes were very bright, and he was afraid of making him angry, so he quickly pulled Li Yongzhong to sit down, deeply regretting that he had more of this mouth, and he couldn't wait to give himself a long memory of a slap! At that moment, he pulled Li Yongzhong with a nervous expression and comforted: "Zhong Guan'er don't be like that bastard!" He is just a nephew of the military gate, and he has a bit of sharpness on the battlefield, which is quite valued by the military gate! You don't have to deal with him in the future, you don't have to take this pickled matter to heart, you don't have to disgust yourself! ”

With his eyes closed and taking a few deep breaths, Li Yongzhong barely calmed down. He opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a clear light inside. Hearing Zheng Guocai's words, he picked the corners of his mouth, barely conjured up a smile, but comforted the other party: "Brother Zheng told me a lot of work in this matter, otherwise the younger brother will be hidden in the bones and become a joke in the mouths of idlers!" This matter came out of Brother Zheng's mouth and into my ears, and there will be no fifth ear to hear. The younger brother must be looking for this surnamed Hou to make it clear, but Brother Zheng can rest assured that he will never be in this situation! ”

Zheng Guocai looked at him suspiciously, and persuaded him bitterly, seeing that Li Yongzhong's face was indifferent, and he didn't see Fang Cai's violence, he was a little relieved, and before leaving, he instructed him in every way: "There are many rough people in the army, and the surname Hou said this ugly, but we have no way to deal with him now, but people are doing it, the sky is watching, such a bastard, he has his own heaven to accept him!" ”

Li Yongzhong's face was the same as before at this moment, and after hearing Zheng Guocai's words, he chuckled lightly, and persuaded him in turn: "Brother Zheng is right. Now that the war is imminent, I shouldn't be distracted, I only keep this matter on the account, and I will slowly clean it up in the future! He Sen smiled coldly, "In short, the comradeship of Officer Hou, I Li Yongzhong wrote it down!" ”

His eyes were shining, his voice was smiling, he was exactly the appearance of a young man who was bright and clear, but Zheng Guo saw it, but he felt that in this hot summer, a cold sweat quietly broke out from his vest, and the mountain wind blew, and his limbs were really cold.

The march was boring. Since Li Yongzhong's return from Aluomi, he has followed the army and has never served as a pathfinder as before. However, the reward for defeating the surrender that day was quickly issued - a reward of 100 taels of silver, which was originally to be promoted to one level, but Hou Liangzhu remembered that when he was in Dayue, he had already promoted this brave team officer once, so he simply said that if Li Yongzhong can make meritorious contributions next time, he will be rewarded with both merits!

Historically, long-distance travel has not been a pleasant experience. Tens of thousands of troops travel, by no means can be easily carried by opening their mouths. What is the front army, what is the rear of the palace, how is the Chinese army, and how to arrange the grain, grass, baggage, heavy and clumsy equipment. As the saying goes, the number of people is boundless, and tens of thousands of people spread out on the mountain road in one go, which is the length of several miles of land!

Especially in the scorching summer, tens of thousands of Ming soldiers got up to make food, set off on the road at the time of the hour, and had to walk for three or four hours before resting, even so, a day of marching is only less than thirty miles, if it is difficult to walk on a mountain road or wind and rain, the time to walk is shorter, since Li Yongzhong returned to the camp, walked for a few days, but walked out of a hundred miles, just like a turtle-like marching speed, actually by some veterans boasted that General Fei was alive! As soon as Li Yongzhong heard that, he really used all his strength to barely hold back his laughter, and he almost didn't let himself burst into laughter!

After Guan Lao Er was sent to the Chinese army, he was closely guarded. In the end, Hou Liangzhu discussed with his adjutant Deng Xi and the prison guard Liu Kexun, and his confidant Liu Zhou a few times, and was convinced that what Guan Lao Er said was true, but unfortunately he didn't know more. He did know about Zhenchuandong's plan, but he didn't know the details of the plan, let alone where Zhenchuandong was now!

"Zhenchuandong and the barbarian have their own contact information, and the small one only knows one of them, but now that the small one has been captured by the official army, I am afraid that the barbarian and Zhenchuandong already know it, and this method will be useless." These days have been beaten a lot, Guan Lao Er does not have a piece of good meat on his face, and the so-called arrogance in the past has disappeared cleanly, and now he is kneeling in the tent of the Chinese army, and he doesn't dare to look up.

Hou Liangzhu frowned and didn't speak, waved his hand for a while and let the soldiers escort Guan Lao Er down, and the three senior officers of the Sichuan Army and a useful staff member, the four of them sat together and discussed.

"The White Lotus Sect is not trivial." Liu Kexun said in a deep voice: "Let's go in Chishui, originally thinking of working together with Xu Junmen to trap the barbarians in Chishui." But now that there is more variable in the White Lotus Sect, we have to discuss with Zhu Zhitai Haosheng, together with Xu Junmen. ”

Deng Xi had other opinions. He sat on top of the horse with a golden sword, and after listening to Liu Kexun's words, he frowned and said: "The last time I sent the letter, Zhu Zhitai was still generous, even if we can contact Xu Junmen, but it is very difficult to wait for Zhu Zhitai's news." The soldiers are fast, and the opinion of the lower officials is that it is better for us to act according to the original plan, while rushing towards the red water, and contacting the control station on the other hand, and not delaying in the two times. ”

1. Xie family has a lack of knowledge

The apricot blossoms are drunk with clothes, and it is the season to go green.

The sun is not decently warm, and the new leaves are thin and transparent in the light. The clouds are flowing and the blue sky is set against the shallow blue sky, the tail wings of songbirds pierce the sky and disappear in a moment, the fields are green and green, and even the busyness of the farmers has a soothing taste.

The corner door of the back of the house creaked open, and a pair of dark eyes looked left and right, and then held a huge paper kite, and the drooping boy in Tsing Yi poked out lightly.

"Where are you going?" The clear, unhurried young voice didn't know where to hit it.

The boy stood abruptly, his hand was pricked, and the paper kite swayed and fell to the ground.

"Big brother......" He turned around, and sure enough, he saw his eldest brother, who should go to rest after lunch, standing lazily in the courtyard with a cloak.

"Have you written ten big letters?" Looking at his younger brother for a long time, the young man nodded, "It seems that there is none." ”

"Big brother ......" is flattering, and the soft and glutinous children's voice drags on for a long time.

"It's nothing." A smile bloomed at the corner of the young man's mouth, and at a glance, it was a little more beautiful than the apricot blossoms on the branches in the soft wind. "But my mother said that Grandpa would come back in the evening and that he needed to check his homework. Ah Wei, I remember that you still have five small boards to keep in your account. The deeper the boy's smile became, "The spring colors are all in the painting, and it must be okay to have five more small boards." ”

Ah Wei's shoulders drooped suddenly.

"At the end of the moment, you still have two hours, hmm, where did you memorize the last book?"

"...... "Analects of Politics", Meng Yizi asked filial piety."

The young man nodded, "When Grandpa left, he said that he would come back to find out if the gentleman was wrong." He looked at his younger brother's shocked face playfully, "Who told my mother that I would study hard during the day?" Well? The young man who was called the eldest brother by Ah Wei said with a smile, "It's okay, Ah Wei went to play by himself, but this time he miscalculated for his brother, and he didn't memorize the book well, I'm afraid that there are not only five boards." "Add five more, almost.

was stared at by the younger brother with tears in his eyes, and the young man was also leisurely, lined with spring light, and wanted to compare the flowers and trees in the yard.

"Ah Wei, Ah Wei knows his mistakes...... Big brother, don't tell grandpa...... The board is afraid of people...... "Ah Wei's eyes were red, and he leaned towards his brother slowly, "Don't tell Grandpa......"

The young man sighed, touched his younger brother's head, squatted down and took Ah Wei's hand and said seriously: "Ah Wei wants to play, it's not a bad thing, but because he is greedy for play, he forgets what he does, which is wrong." ”

"Ah Wei, Ah Wei knows that he is wrong." The younger brother looked at him blankly, his dark and wet eyes like a small animal did not blink, "Big brother, don't tell Grandpa." ”

The young man smiled, but deliberately straightened his face, "Then I don't tell my father, what is Ah Wei going to do?" ”

The younger brother immediately said smartly, "I'll go to the study." He reluctantly put the paper kite into his brother's hand, "Big brother will take me to put the paper kite tomorrow......"

"Then you have to pass Grandpa's exam tonight......"

Sending the younger brother to the study, the young man closed the door and stood for a while, and only nodded with satisfaction when he heard the sound of the book, and walked towards the corridor with the clogs in this spring light.

"Dalang." Bumped into a young servant in a green hat and green clothes, tied his hands and feet and saluted, saying, "The master mother invites Da Lang to go." ”

He straightened his clothes and couldn't take care of his cloak well, so he simply took it off and handed it to the servant, "I'll go now." (To be continued.) )
