Chapter 44: Night, Back Garden, Corruption, and Kissing

It is said that Xiao Biesheng is newly married, but Yang Hao does not feel this way at all, is it because they have been separated for too long, and there is a gap between them, or because they married Yuegu again, the atmosphere of the first family banquet after returning to Feng'an is extremely depressing, Yuegu immediately felt the hostility from Xiaoyu and Lu Rui, and her method of fighting back was direct and powerful,

Halfway through the family banquet, she suddenly asked Yang Hao, "Have you eaten well?" "Ahh Yang Hao nodded subconsciously, Yue stood up slowly, pulled Yang Hao's arm and said, "Eat enough, it's time for us to go back to the tent and rest." Yang Hao was pulled by her and staggered, and walked to the door involuntarily, Yuegu paused at the door, turned around and stuck out his tongue at Xiaoyu, and went victorious,

Xiaoyu was so angry that his face turned blue, he dropped his chopsticks and left the table, but Lu Rui leaned back and fell back with laughter, laughing so much that tears flowed out, Qing'er couldn't help laughing and scolding: "It's crazy to be angry, it's stupid again, it's really strange every year, especially this year." ”

It was easy for Lu Rui to stop laughing, pointed to Xiao Yu's distant back, and said: "Who joked that day, General Yang has been out for so long, will he be fascinated by the fox spirit, someone shouted with righteousness at that time: 'If he dares to bring a fox spirit back, I will ×× him,' but now...... Haha......"

Qing'er glanced at Lu Rui, and said to Dongyu on the side: "Third Lady Fu, oh, Fourth Lady, go back to the room to rest, drink a few glasses of wine and talk nonsense." Lu Rui suddenly stopped laughing as if she had been pricked by a needle,

Dongyu persuaded her: "Don't worry about it, the general will bring a newcomer back, no one will feel good, and Madame doesn't mean to hurt you." Lu Rui snorted coldly: "Even if she deliberately hurts me, what can I do, who made her the master of the harem." When Dongyu heard this, he suddenly trembled with anger,

At the beginning of the year, Yang Hao proposed to marry Dongyu Xu to Yu Yanlu as his wife, but Qing'er was humble and resolutely opposed to Dongyu's identity, Dongyu did not give up, she privately asked Xiaoyu to intercede, Xiaoyu rushed to find Qing'er, but hit a big nail, and quarreled with Qing'er in a hurry.

This matter was later known by Yang Hao, Yang Hao laughed and scolded Qing'er for being the master of the harem and acting domineeringly, so Qing'er got the nickname of "the master of the harem", Dongyu has been haunted by this matter, although half a year has passed, but at this time she was mentioned by Lu Rui, she is still full of hatred,

Lu Rui made Dongyu angry, and suddenly felt a lot better, and walked away humming a small tune.

Dongyu was ridiculed by Lu Rui for no reason, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, he couldn't help crying, and he was afraid of being seen by others, so he hid in the back garden alone, in the dead of night, the back garden was empty, Dongyu wanted to cry well, but the tears were gone, and he sat alone in the pavilion for a while, Dongyu was ready to get up and leave,

Suddenly, a figure flashed into a bush of Yueji red behind the inner study, this bush of Yueji was newly planted this year, the fertilizer was too much, and he was busy pulling his waist and pulling strips, but it was not a flower, so no one usually went there except for the gardener to prune and water,

Dongyu's first reaction was stiffness all over her body, and then she thought of escaping, but soon she calmed down, the defense embassy was heavily guarded, and outsiders couldn't enter at all, if it was an assassin, what was he doing hiding in a remote corner, picking flowers, and the bushes didn't bloom.

Dongyu thought, which little girl must be in this secret meeting with the lover, at the beginning of spring this year, there are a few new little girls in the backyard of the embassy, all of them are fifteen or sixteen years old when the love is first opened, Dongyu has long found that there is a little girl named Jin Ling and a young bookkeeper in the study outside the wall, I didn't expect that it has reached the point of the garden night party, and then I don't care, maybe there will be some mess.

Dong Yu didn't have any grievances in her heart and forgot to be afraid, she was highly excited, all she thought about was how to catch the pair of wild mandarin ducks who dared to cheat under her nose, catch thieves and stolen goods, catch rapists in bed, Dong Yu decided to catch a now, so that they could not deny it, she was like an agile civet cat, quietly ambushed next to a withered willow six or seven feet away from the flowers,

At the beginning of spring, a new lotus pond was dug in the back garden, it is said that it was dug according to the back garden of the Hou Mansion in Xining, Chang'an, after the pond was dug up, Suo Forehead transported ten weeping willows from Luoyan River, I wanted to ask the boss a good, who knew that the weeping willows were not adapted to the soil and water, and eight of the ten trees were transported, and the remaining two were cut off by the old man Guan All the branches, so they barely survived.

A man in black walked over against the flower path on the back wall of the inner study, his steps were light and steady, he seemed to be very familiar with the back garden, and there was no fear at all, Dongyu couldn't help but curse in his heart,

"Ahem, ahem." The man in black coughed, and Dongyu was nervous and excited.

"Ahem." The woman after the moon season responded, and Dongyu's heart suddenly pounded,

"What did you call me to do so late." The woman's tone was tense and anxious,

"I brought you two pieces of jewelry." The man's tone was calm, as if he was chatting with a friend, but Dong Yu still heard the affection and tenderness implied in his tone,

The woman was silent for a while, and seemed to have made a lot of determination: "Don't come to me again in the future, it's not good for you and me, I'm really scared......"

There was silence again, and suddenly, there was a fierce scuffle in the Yueji Cong, no, it was not a scuffle, it was the man who tried to hug the woman, but the woman wanted to refuse and welcome......

The silence was restored, and after a while, there was a man's heavy wheezing sound from the moon flowers, occasionally mixed with the woman's happy moaning, Dongyu only felt that her mouth was dry and weak, and she helped the withered willow to stand up and fled from the back garden in despair.

Inner study,

Jiang Tao, the new grain and grass supervisor, was reporting to Yang Hao about the preparation of grain and grass for Wang Ben for the expedition to Xi Ren, and Lu Benqing, the measuring officer and grain and grass co-director, sat aside, he held a bag sewn from coarse cloth in his hand, and when Jiang Tao spoke, he pinched the contents of the bag with his hand from time to time.

After defeating Liu Desan's Hedong Army, the internal and external troubles of the Tiande Army were all lifted, and the marriage between Yang Hao and Yuegu resolved the contradictions that had intensified due to the captivity of the people of Tiande by the five barbarian tribes.

On the night of Yang Hao and Yuegu Cave House, the Xi people broke through Shuozhou, 20,000 defenders were all killed, the Xi people killed hundreds of wounded soldiers, and carried out a crazy plunder of Shuozhou, the next day of the city break, Liu Qingling was dismissed and escorted to Chang'an, Li Zaiyi was appointed as the commander of all the armies in Hedong and served as the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, commanding the army of Hedong, Zhenwu and Tiande to counterattack the Xi people, the night of the holy decree, the famous general Dong Bacheng of Hedong led 30,000 elites from Taiyuan to the north, two days later, Wang Ben also received an order to send troops to help the war,

On the issue of attacking the Xi people, Yang Hao, Shi Xiong, and Wang Ben had surprisingly the same views, and they all advocated taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the Xi people was going south to concentrate all their efforts on attacking their tooth tents and slaughtering their clans.

Yang Hao suggested that the three alliances send 20,000 troops, cross Daqingshan to attack the Xi people's royal court, and the five barbarian and vulture tribes each sent 5,000 troops to accompany the expedition, but Tang Ning's sudden arrival disrupted this plan, Tang Ning brought a warrant from the chief butler of the Baoli Society, and Yang Hao was not allowed to send troops to interfere in the battle between the Xi people and Hedong,

Yang Hao didn't dare to openly disobey his orders, but the crimes committed by Xi Ren in Shuozhou forced him to take action, not only out of righteous indignation for revenge for his compatriots, but also to appease the needs of Hedong's subordinates.

Yang Hao secretly transferred 3,000 elites to form the Qingshan Brigade, with Cheng Keling and Yu Yanlu as the main and deputy commanders, and went out with Wang Ben under the banner of the Tiande Army.

Shi Xiong divided 2,000 troops, led by Zhang Huayang and Wan Tao, and went out with Wang Ben, and the five barbarian and vulture tribes each sent 5,000 troops, and sent troops to help the battle as an ally of the Tang Army.

The Tiande army has exhausted the mountains and rivers, and the grain and grass needed by the army are raised by Yang Hao, Yang Hao's current distress is that he has money in his hands, but he can't buy grain, and the green seedlings in the twelve military reclamation farms are strong, but they will have to wait a few more months to become food.

Shi Xiong went south to occupy Linzhou, dredged the trade route to Guannai, but to transport grain from Guanzhong to Fengzhou and then transfer to the front line, it is by no means an easy task, there are no cars, trains, and the transportation of grain is completely driven by cars and horses, not only the efficiency is extremely low, the cost on the way is even more amazing, in addition to natural loss, the artificial loss such as greedy ink is also very amazing,

Yang Hao asked Lu Benqing to concurrently serve as the co-organizer of grain and grass, that is, to let him keep an eye on this huge grain team and crack down on the outcropping rats, Lu Benqing lived up to expectations, and only half a month after taking office, he found out four major cases of corruption and fraud, involving the relatives of several senior generals.

"We checked all the account books, Cheng Lianqing transported the batch of grain and grass, the loss is more than sixty percent, far beyond the normal proportion, there is a dead account of 300 stone of grain, he said that the ferry leaked and sank when crossing the Yellow River and lost, but according to the results of our salvage, this statement is untenable, what sank is a small boat, there is no 300 stone of grain at all."

Speaking of this, Lu Benqing opened the cloth bag in his hand, took out two rusty bow nails and put them on the table, "This is the bow nail that was pried down from the sunken ship, I asked the shipbuilder, this kind of iron nail can only be used on small ships with a carrying capacity of less than 100 stones, and the iron nails used for large ships with a carrying capacity of more than 200 stones are twice as long as this." ”

Yang Hao picked up two iron nails and knocked them, the rust kept falling, and he threw the iron nails on the table: "Arrest people immediately." ”

"But he is the cousin of General Cheng Keling......" Jiang Tao suddenly said,

"I'll explain it to him, arrest someone." Yang Hao said in an unquestionable tone,

Qing'er walked in with a bowl of tea, Lu Benqing hurriedly stood up, Jiang Tao also stood up, Qing'er hurriedly said: "Two adults, please take a seat, I will send a bowl of tea, and I will leave immediately." Jiang Tao said: "The official business has been asked, and we are leaving." When Lu Benqing heard this, he hurriedly took back the iron nails on the table, and saw that there was still some rust left on the table, so he wiped it off with his sleeve in a hurry.

After the two of them withdrew, Qing'er burst out laughing: "This Lord Lu is really interesting." ”

Yang Hao hugged Qing'er's waist and asked, "Do you have to talk about anything here?" Qing'er subconsciously broke away from his hand, "Yes, yes, yes, this is the place where your general discusses military affairs, I shouldn't be a little girl, but I can't see your figure all day long, how can I report something to you." ”

Yang Hao smiled, took Qing'er in his arms, and coaxed her: "I said the wrong thing, I will accompany Mrs. ”

Qing'er said coquettishly: "Hugh used this to coax me." After a pause, he said: "The day before yesterday, Meichen came into the house, and I haven't seen her for a few months, as if she has changed someone, and I can't do without Zhu Xiaonan when I open my mouth and close my mouth, I wonder if she wants to get married, and whether you should worry about their marriage." ”

Yang Hao said: "Since the two are happy, urge Zhu Xiaonan to do things, you can call the shots for this kind of thing." ”

Qing'er said: "How dare I call the shots, if I don't do it well, won't I be gossiped about again." ”

Yang Hao heard what she said, so he asked with a smile: "Who is so bold as to dare to chew the root of his tongue behind his wife's back, and find out that he will cut off her tongue." ”

Qing'er had no intention of laughing, sighed, and asked, "You tell the truth, is Dongyu really worthy of Yu Yan Furnace." ”

Yang Hao smiled and said: "You love me, what is not worthy, you think she is from a humble background, then consider her a sister, who would dare to look down on your sister-in-law." ”

Qing'er suddenly changed her face, broke away from Yang Hao's hand, walked to the other end of the table, and said coldly: "In your eyes, I am naturally a person with her, I will recognize my sister, that is not a maidservant, you are the heirloom son-in-law, and the general of the imperial court, your sister-in-law is really no one dares to look down on it." ”

Yang Hao suddenly became angry, and asked, "What's the matter, unprovoked, what are you angry with me." Before the words fell, I suddenly heard someone shouting in stiff Chinese: "Yang Hao, I have something to see you." Yang Hao looked up and saw that Yue Gu was standing in the courtyard and beckoning to him.
