Chapter 149: A Thousand Miles to Find My Brother

Instead of giving money to those princes and princesses, it is better to give them a way to make money!

"That's what Brother Karma said, but I suggest that it's better to bring the royal family with you, you can't make money from us, let them watch!" The eldest grandson suddenly thought that the queen's aunt had opened a glass shop in Kyoto, and there would be a market here.

"That's what Brother Eldest Sun said!" Li Yexu echoed and said, no matter what they do, it is best not to bypass the royal family, one makes money, it is better for everyone to make money together.

In this way, several people discussed the business in Bagua City. Originally, these people just couldn't spare the kindness of Changsun Chong to arrange for the family to come down to do business, but they didn't expect to bring them a steady stream of money later

On the winding road, a lame man appeared, limping forward with difficulty, and his shoes were worn out, revealing bloody toes. But the man didn't seem to feel pain, and his eyes were firm, looking into the distance.

This person is Liu Muxiang's elder brother Liu Mulan, when his sister Liu Muxiang stole the robe left by his father and a scrawny old horse at home, leaving only a simple letter, he joined the army for him. After that, there was no news, as an elder brother, he was so anxious at home that he couldn't sit still, so he sold a little valuable thing at home and searched for his sister thousands of miles away.

Liu Mulan sat on the stone on the side of the road, thinking of her sister alone in the barracks, and not knowing whether she was alive or dead now, she felt lost and sad, and kept beating her useless legs. If this leg is not sick, my sister should not take any chances.

Before his father died, he told him that he must raise his sister well and find a good family, but he let his sister go to the battlefield and life and death were uncertain. He's incompetent as an elder brother, I'm sorry for his parents' spirit in the sky!

Liu Mulan wiped away her tears, ate half of the black steamed buns in her baggage, and continued to hurry, one high and one low, in a very strange posture. The speed is very slow, otherwise it wouldn't have been months long, and it hasn't reached the destination yet, so you can see how slow it is.

Behind him was a pair of people and horses, some riding horses, some riding cars, walking slowly on the road, without any consciousness of hurrying.

This Liu Mulan saw a pair of people and horses behind him, riding horses and riding cars, and was very envious, but he didn't step forward to ask, because he had been rejected too much along the way, and he had been walking for several months anyway. Worried about getting in the way, hurry to the side of the road.

This group of people and horses was actually the eldest grandson Erlang, who went to deliver the decree, sitting in the carriage and drowsy, raised his eyes to look out the window of the carriage, and found that a person was wearing tattered clothes and limping forward.

You must know that the place two hundred miles ahead is Dingxiang City, why did this lame person with impaired mobility go to that place.

Anyway, before he came, he had already received his father's guidance, and he didn't ask for it to hurry up, so he won time for the front-line army to fight the Turks, so the eldest Sun Erlang was very idle on this road! Although he can't wait to meet his brother Changsun Chong, he can't forget what his father explained, this time he didn't come out to play, but to pass on the decree, in order to delay time, he always went around in circles outside.

For some reason, the eldest grandson Erlang really wanted to know what this person was doing in Dingxiang? was curious, Liu Mulan in front of her felt a pain in the soles of her feet, fell to the ground, struggled to get up, and continued to hurry.

The eldest grandson Erlang saw that this person's shoes were worn out and his toes were exposed, what kind of New Year supported him to move forward!

"Dabao, Erbao, let's ask where the person on the side of the road is going? If you stop by the way, let's give him a ride. "The eldest grandson Erlang is a kind child, and more and more curiosity turns into pity.

"Second young master, we have official business, so it's better to be careful with idle people." Dabao is not unsympathetic to this person, but he still doesn't want to make extraneous branches.

Eldest Sun Erlang felt bored all the way, and he brought so many guards, even if this person had evil intentions, he wouldn't hurt him in the slightest.

"Go and ask!" The eldest grandson Erlang instructed that this person was Han Chinese, and in such a hot day, if it were not for the last resort, he would not be busy with his disabled body.

Dabao had no choice but to dismount, walked to Liu Mulan's side and asked, "Who are you and where are you going?" ”

Liu Mulan felt that this group of people had no ill will towards him, and it could be seen that they were Tang officials on their clothes, so she stood up and hugged her fists and said: "The grass people from Luoyang, when they sent troops to the Turkic army, the grass people had stubborn problems in their legs, and they had the emperor's grace, so they couldn't go into battle to kill the enemy. However, the willow fragrance of the grass people replaced the name of the grass people, and the grass people joined the army. The two of us brothers depend on each other, and the grass people are not small, so they feel the border from their hometown, inquire about the whereabouts of their younger brother, and want to know whether they are dead or alive, otherwise the grass people will not be able to sleep and eat, and they will be worthy of the trust of their dying parents. ”

When Dabao heard this, this person was quite miserable, and he knew that he was a poor man when he looked at the clothes, and it was good to have this heart, so he took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and said, "You take this money, buy some food on the way." ”

Liu Mulan didn't want it, but she thought that she was already penniless, and the more she went to the northwest, the more desolate she became, and she couldn't ask for anything to eat, so she had to take the copper coin and said gratefully: "Dare to ask the name of the strong man?" If you have the opportunity, you will definitely get paid! ”

"No need!" Dabao hurriedly got on the horse and went to reply to the eldest grandson Erlang.

When the eldest grandson Erlang heard this, he asked, "People from Luoyang?" Then the accent you listen to is fine, right? ”

"No problem, a native of Luoyang, it doesn't look like he is talking fake, and it is even more rare to have that brotherly love, the younger brother joins the army for the brother, and the elder brother is looking for the younger brother thousands of miles away." Dabao said with a little sympathy, thinking of his younger brother and treating him better in the future.

The eldest grandson Erlang thought of the eldest brother who was fighting in the grassland, the eldest brother used to ignore them, but in the past year, he was not only good to his younger brother, but also to the younger brothers and sisters below.

"Since we're going to Dingxiang, let him go with us. Dabao, come in and sit in the carriage with me, and give a horse to the man to ride. Eldest Sun Erlang thought that this person's brother was also a Tang soldier who went into battle to kill the enemy, so he still took some care.

Dabao took the order, returned to Liu Mulan's side and said: "Since you are the family of the Tang soldiers, it is so hard to travel, my young master will give up a horse, you can go with us!" ”

Liu Mulan was so moved that she knelt down and kowtowed to Dabao, and said, "Thank you for this big brother, and thank you for your young master!" ”

However, Dabao suddenly felt that this person was lame, and it was a problem to get on the horse, and wanted to step forward to help, but he didn't expect that Liu Mulan had already kicked on the stirrup, shook her legs, and got into the carriage. If he hadn't known that this man's feet were indeed worn out, he would have been a little suspicious of Liu Muxiang's origin.

"Brother, have you practiced?" Dabao put away his careless heart and asked solemnly.

"My father used to be a veteran, and my brother and I learned a few kung fu skills, which is not considered to be practiced." Liu Mulan replied respectfully, it is indispensable to guard against people, and these people are also acting carefully.

Dabao nodded and said, "Then you will follow us, and when you arrive at Dingxiang, you will return the horse to us." ”

"Thank you, big brother." Liu Mulan said with her fists clenched again.

Dabao sat in the carriage and asked softly, "Second Young Master, it's almost time to Dingxiang, and I don't know if the fight in front is over?" ”

"Don't worry, after arriving thirty miles outside Dingxiang, you take two people to the city to ask, if you haven't finished fighting, I'll go around a few more times, if it's over, then I'll go into the city again." The eldest grandson Erlang had an idea, anyway, his holy decree can be sent late or not early.

When he settled down at night, the eldest grandson Erlang asked Dabao to send the ointment and let Liu Mulan apply it. Liu Mulan's shoes were broken, and she bought a pair of shoes with the copper money given by Dabao.

Liu Mulan secretly made up her mind in her heart that when she found her sister this time, she would repay these two benefactors.

Hurried together, walked for five days, and finally arrived at a place thirty miles away from Dingxiang, the eldest grandson Erlang was not ready to go forward, so Dabao took two guards and Liu Mulan into the city on the second day.

When Liu Mulan arrived in Dingxiang, he said goodbye to Dabao, although he also wanted to ask Qing Dabao to help, but people had already helped a lot, and he couldn't force others.

In the past few days, Dabao feels that Liu Mulan is straightforward, not arrogant or impatient, and has a good impression of his brother.

Looking at Liu Mulan's limping back, she felt a little unbearable, chased after her and gave five taels of silver, and said, "Little brother Liu, you take it, I wish you to find your brother as soon as possible." After speaking, she didn't wait for Liu Mulan to thank her, and walked away quickly.

Liu Mulan already knew that the son was the second son of the eldest grandson Wuji, and whenever he was useful to him Liu Mulan in the future, he would definitely try his best to repay him.

Let's say that Dabao went to Wei Chi Jingde's place, took out the token, and was put in.

When Dabao saw Wei Chi Jingde, he bowed and saluted and said: "See General Wei Chi, the younger one is the eldest grandson's second young master's entourage, this time the second young master came to read the holy decree on the order of His Majesty, I don't know if the time is right?" ”

"The timing is right?" Wei Chi Jingde didn't react at once.

Dabao looked around, took a few steps forward, and whispered in Wei Chi Jingde's ear: "General Wei Chi, the second young master of my family asked, if the fight is not finished, he will go around elsewhere!" ”

Wei Chi Jingde suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "The battle has been completed, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians of the Jieli Department have been captured, but that Jieli ran away and did not catch up." ”

"Huh? Jieli ran away? Then my young master read out the holy decree of friendship with the Turks, whether to pass it on or not? ? Dabao was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.

Wei Chi Jingde saw that Dabao had misunderstood, and said in a low voice: "Jieli went to the troops led by Li Daozong, so"

"Then you mean that Jieli will be arrested by General Li Daozong?" Dabao asked cautiously, if it is confirmed that it is caught, the second young master can enter the city.

Wei Chi Jingde did not answer, but nodded.

Dabao was very happy, and came out of Wei Chi Jingde happily, as long as the holy decree arrived tomorrow, their second young master's task would be completed. (To be continued.) )
