Chapter 70: Lose your head
Ge Lijun naturally couldn't have imagined that Zhao Dongting could use porcelain jars to make something as powerful as a mine.
But he had always been suspicious, but he still kept it in his heart.
At this time, Li Heng suddenly asked, "When does Lord Ge plan to attack the island?"
Ge Lijun didn't hide it from him, and said: "Five days later, we will gather at Xiliu Ferry. ”
Li Heng nodded lightly, and said, "At that time, Zhang Shuai and I will lead five thousand troops and horses to sweep the battle for Lord Ge, how about it?"
He and Zhang Hongfan now have so many soldiers left who can fight, and they are all reserves guarding the garrison.
Ge Lijun listened to his words, just thinking that he wanted to make some military merits by the way, and in the future, Emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Emperor would investigate their defeat, and they would also have a credit to compensate them, and they didn't mind giving Li Heng this favor, and said with a smile: "That's the best." ”
Li Heng said again: "But our army has no ship, and we have to rely on Lord Ge." ”
Ge Lijun waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, the warship, I have a lot of Leizhou." ”
Off the coast of Leizhou, in the Yuan and Song dynasties, in addition to the private placement soldiers, Ge Lijun did build a lot of warships.
Li Heng was slightly happy in his heart, stood up and arched his hand: "Then thank you Lord Ge, I will leave first." ”
Ge Lijun personally sent him outside the house.
He was afraid that he couldn't imagine that as soon as Li Heng left his mansion, a cold smile was already flashing on the corner of his mouth.
He and Zhang Hongfan lost 50,000 military horses, where is the small credit of plundering the formation can be offset by the credit?
......
At that end, Liu Hongqi returned home and was furious.
His wife saw her husband's face full of anger, and asked suspiciously, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Hongqi pulled his wife indoors and sighed: "Lord Ge wants to abandon Song Touyuan and lead the army to attack Zhoudao!"
"What?"
Mrs. Liu was shocked, "Why is Lord Ge so disloyal?"
She naturally knows her husband very well, and knows that her husband has always advocated that she would rather die than surrender, let alone attack the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
Liu Hongqi slapped the table angrily, "I think when he first came to Leizhou as an official, he was also loyal and righteous, I really don't know why he has become like this now." ”
Mrs. Liu gently held her husband's hand and said softly: "He has been in a high position for a long time, and he has been in power, and his heart has changed. ”
Liu Hongqi shook his head and sighed, "The people's hearts are not ancient, and the food monarch is not worried, but he helps the abuse." It's a pity that now there are only a few people left in Leizhou Mansion who can speak to me besides you, if these words are said to others, I am afraid that I will be tied up immediately to see Ge Lijun, and then kill me as soon as possible. ”
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but be worried, "Then Ge Lijun has the intention of doing something to you?"
Liu Hongqi said: "I said in the hall that I would obey his military orders, but he didn't show that he wanted to do anything to me. However, I impulsively scolded Qi Shucai for being disloyal and unjust, and Ge Lijun will definitely be able to figure out my thoughts. I guess even if they don't do anything to me, they will be wary of me. ”
Mrs. Liu looked outside the house and said softly, "What are you going to do, husband?"
Liu Hongqi replied heavily: "Although I, Liu Hongqi, am only a martial artist, I am also a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty, so it is impossible for me to vote for the Yuan." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand and said, "Madam, go and get a pen and paper." ”
Mrs. Liu was stunned and said, "What are you doing with pen and paper?"
Liu Hongqi said: "I wrote a letter to the emperor to inform him of his disobedience to the king. Let's make it clear that I first pretend to lead the army to attack the island with Ge Lijun, and only stay on the island, and then I will rebel and kill the rebels for the emperor!"
Mrs. Liu groaned slightly, "Ke Ge Lijun knows your character, will he give you a chance to fight back?"
She is a woman's family, and her mind should be more delicate in the end.
Liu Hongqi gritted his teeth when he heard this, "I can't care so much, even if I can't fight back, at least I can let the emperor know Ge Lijun's plan." ”
Mrs. Liu nodded, and walked out the door to get paper, ink, pen and inkstone.
The two have been married for many years, and she also admires Liu Hongqi's loyalty, so naturally she will not say anything to dissuade her. She thought in her heart that if her husband died at that time, then she would follow him to the underworld. His husband is a person who values loyalty more than life.
After a while, she came in with a pen and paper.
Liu Hongqi obediently gave up his seat, let her sit on the chair, and then stood next to him to grind ink.
Mrs. Liu lightly lifted the brush, glued ink, and asked softly, "Husband, how should I write?"
It turned out that although Liu Hongqi was a military general, he was illiterate.
He pondered and said, "I'll just follow my words, madam, you help me polish and polish well." The last general, Liu Hongqi, the commander of the Leizhou Flying Army, was far away from the saint, and the Leizhou Zhizhou Ge Lijun intended to rebel, and the army would gather at the Xiliu Ferry five days later. The last general pretended to lead an army with him to attack the island, and when he arrived on the island, he rebelled again and helped the saint to kill the thief. ”
Mrs. Liu wrote hard, handwriting, and then looked up and said, "It's over?"
Liu Hongqi scratched his head, "That's all." ”
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but laugh, and added a few words to herself, and said: "You, you usually let you study but you don't read, but this is good, you can't even say a word of compliment to the saint." ”
Liu Hongqi sneered and said, "Isn't there still you?" For more than ten years, you have been writing for me, and I have become accustomed to it, what are you going to learn those words?"
Mrs. Liu shook her head, crying and laughing, and helpless.
He added a date at the end of the letter, carefully folded the letter, and handed it to Liu Hongqi, "Who are you going to send the letter?"
Liu Hongqi said: "Or...... Let that kid go?"
Xiyi is a servant in his household.
Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "Xiyi is clever, I think it is feasible." ”
Liu Hongqi held the letter a little excitedly, "Then I'll go find him." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly went out.
Mrs. Liu looked at the back of her husband leaving, and a soft smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Her father is a private school teacher in Haikang County, and she has also read a lot of books since she was a child, and she is considered a scholarly family, but she never regrets marrying Liu Hongqi, a rough man, because although her husband is rough, he is very considerate to her. She has no heirs over the years, and Liu Hongqi still treats her as always.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu touched her flat abdomen, and her eyes couldn't help but show a little regret.
Xiyi was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man, ordinary-looking, but neatly dressed, and when Liu Hongqi found him, he was feeding the pure white kitten he had in his room.
Liu Hongqi is a rough man, and when he walked in and saw this scene, he couldn't help but say: "You are better to this cat than yourself." ”
"Sir. ”
Xiyi turned her head back but smiled, "This cat is of great use to me." ”
Liu Hongqi said angrily: "It's just a cat, what's the use?"
Xiyi is clever, and Liu Hongqi, who has no heirs, also likes this kid quite a lot, but this kid really doesn't want to be motivated, so he won't go to join the army.
Seeing Liu Hongqi's face full of disdain, Xiyi didn't explain, but only asked, "What is the master looking for me?"
Of course, he wouldn't tell Liu Hongqi that he raised this cat, and he could often make rich ladies stop and watch and tease on the street.
Liu Hongqi looked outside the house, closed the door, walked to Xiyi, took out the letter, and said softly: "You go to Zhoudao quickly, and hand over this letter to the emperor yourself." This letter is about the life and death of your master, can you do it?"
Xiyi is just a familyman, and when he heard Liu Hongqi say this, even if he was clever, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The lord is already a great official for him, and as for meeting the emperor, he didn't even think about it.
Seeing that he was stunned, Liu Hongqi frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?"
Xiyi took the letter and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't dare, it's just that you said that you want me to see the emperor, I'm just a little excited." ”
Because there are only two subordinates in Liu Hongqi's family, in addition to Xiyi, there is also a servant girl who serves Mrs. Liu, so the relationship between master and servant has always been quite close, Liu Hongqi has no shelf in front of Xiyi, and Xiyi is not very restrained in front of Liu Hongqi.
Liu Hongqi saw that Xiyi didn't seem to be nervous, and couldn't help but tell again: "You have to be careful, now Lord Zhizhou is ready to surrender to the Yuan Dynasty, if you are caught by him and see this letter, our whole family will have to lose their heads." ”
When Xi Yi heard this, his face became solemn, "Master, I will be careful." ”
"Hmm. ”
Liu Hongqi nodded, "Then you can do it as soon as possible, remember, the sooner you hand over this letter to the emperor, the better." ”
Xi Yi tucked the letter into his arms, "Then I'll go." ”
After saying that, he walked out the door.
But when he reached the door, he turned back and took the pure white kitten on the bed into his arms.
Liu Hongqi said angrily: "What time is it, what are you still doing with this cat?"
Xiyi smiled, "Master, don't care, anyway, the little one will definitely deliver the letter." ”。
Then he hurried out of the house.
Liu Hongqi looked at his back and scolded with a smile, "Stinky boy......"
