Chapter 12: Reluctant Invitation
Getting the news, Zhang Shou was surprised. However, he has been in officialdom for a long time and knows the subtlety of it. So while setting up a banquet to entertain the eunuch who had sent the decree, he took out a large plate of gold and silver and gave it away. The eunuch had benefited, and he really knew everything.
Yang Guang's expedition to the west, accompanied by only a few dozen eunuchs, so this eunuch also had the opportunity to walk in front of the emperor, and he heard some secrets. It turned out that this matter was actually bad for Dong Heng.
Liu Ziqiu, Liu Yu, Jiang Yu, and Dong Heng are all under the jurisdiction of Yu Wenjing, but Yu Wenjing replaced Han Shige as a general for more than a month, and he had no henchmen.
This time, Yuwen Jing escaped from the battle and was beheaded according to the law. But because of the relationship between Yuwenshu and his son, Zhang Shou only scolded him verbally, but still let him take charge of the old department. It's just that when Yu Wenjing came back, his prestige in the army had been lost, and the soldiers listened to his command on the surface, but they all pointed at his backbone and scolded him behind his back.
Dong Heng is narrow-minded, and he was robbed of white by Liu Ziqiu in front of the army that day, and he always held a grudge. Seeing that Yu Wenjing was snubbed by the army, Dong Heng suddenly had a plan, deliberately currying favor with Yu Wenjing, and giving him advice and letting him take the lead in guarding the mud ridge alone.
Yu Wenjing then wrote a secret letter to Yu Wenshu, only saying that the fire bull array on the mud ridge, the pulley, and the plan of the suspicious soldiers to retreat from the enemy were all the results of his strategy, without mentioning the merits of Liu Ziqiu and his brothers.
At the beginning, Yuwen Jing was recommended to serve as the general of the Tiger Ben Lang, Yu Wenshu took a lot of effort, and now Yuwen Jing has made this great achievement, he can't wait to show off in front of the emperor, and on the night he received the secret letter, he made a report to Yang Guang. Yang Guang was very happy when he heard it, and he also praised Yuwenshu by the way.
Who would have thought that Zhang Shou's recital would be sent to the imperial front the next day. It happened to be waiting in front of Yang Guang was Yu Wenhua and his brothers, Yu Wenhua and Yu Wenjing's secret letter said in the chapter was quite different, and he didn't dare to present it in front of the car, so he quietly hid the song.
Therefore, Yang Guang had never heard of Liu Ziqiu's name at all, so naturally he would not have given him a reward. The eunuch happened to know about this and accepted the benefits of Zhang Shou, so he told him and instructed him not to speak lightly.
Speaking of this, Zhang Shou suddenly found that Liu Ziqiu's face was not shocked, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and asked, "What do you think about this matter?" ”
Liu Ziqiu pondered for a while, and then arched his hand and said: "Back to the general, my subordinates think that Yu Wenjing may not be able to take the position of Taishou. ”
Zhang Shou laughed and said: "Zhang is asking you, you didn't become a colonel or even a general, don't you have a little regret?" What are you going to do with Yu Wenjing. ”
Liu Ziqiu also laughed and said: "Fate sometimes has to happen, and fate has to be forced all the time." Maybe this future shouldn't have been Liu's, what are the regrets. ”
Zhang Shou was not surprised when he saw that he was pampered, nodded secretly, and said: "Liu Ziqiu, although you are counted by the villain this time, with your skills, there will always be a day to get ahead." If you can't become a lieutenant, Zhang will appoint you as a brigade commander. What else do you want, just mention! ”
He is now a general, and it is not a big deal to appoint a brigade commander, as long as he reports the case to the military department afterwards.
Although the position of brigade commander is light, he is in charge of two hundred people, Liu Ziqiu is not hypocritical, and arches his hand: "Thank you, general!" There is also a reluctant request from the subordinates. ”
"You say!" Zhang Shou's face sank. But he knew in his heart that if there was no Liu Ziqiu, he wouldn't say that he would be promoted to general, and I was afraid that his net worth and life would be lost, Liang Mo and Li Qiong were the best examples. In terms of official position, the only person he can give Liu Ziqiu is the brigade commander, and he can only give some compensation in money. However, if Liu Ziqiu really makes a request in this regard, I am afraid that his impression of Liu Ziqiu will be greatly reduced.
But I heard Liu Ziqiu say respectfully: "General, my subordinates want to take a few days off, and I hope that the general will approve it!" ”
Zhang Shou was stunned: "That's all there is to it?" ”
Liu Ziqiu nodded and said, "For this request, I hope the general ......"
Zhang Shou waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Zhang will grant you a month's leave." However, after a month, you must report back to the camp according to the law, and there must be no mistakes! ”
Liu Ziqiu asked for leave because he wanted to see Liduoyun, and he promised to go to Liduoyun and visit him when the war was over. If you go to Liduoyun and still in Xihai Lake, you can go back and forth in one day. Even if you go to the village of Liduoyun, it will not take more than two days. But since Zhang Shou approved him for a month's leave, he was also happy to have a while, and hurriedly got up to thank him.
……
The vast Xihai Lake is still covered with thick ice, smooth as a mirror, but the lakeside has long been empty, and only the burned bonfire has left a pile of ashes. Liu Ziqiu stood for a long time, and suddenly the horsewhip was lightly raised, and the horse galloped westward. He knew that the people who had gone to Lidoyun had completed the most important ritual of the year and returned to their villages.
The village to Liduoyun is only more than 100 miles away from Xihai Lake, and it should be able to catch up before dark. Liu Ziqiu didn't want to spend another night in the wasteland, so he walked very fast, and in the distance he saw a low wooden house at the foot of the mountain in front of him, shining golden in the setting sun, and there was the dustard heading to Liyun.
Suddenly, I heard a "woo", and an arrow shot out of the poplar forest outside the village, whistling and inserting it on the sand in front of Liu Ziqiu, and the eagle at the end of the arrow was still swaying in the wind, as if to warn Liu Ziqiu not to take another step beyond the thunder pool.
Liu Ziqiu grabbed the reins, crossed the knife in his hand, and shouted: "To Liduoyun, is this how you welcome friends from afar?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a chestnut red horse galloping out of the poplar forest, and the knight on the horse was also dressed in red. The horse suddenly stood in the middle of the race, and the knight on the horse was surprised: "Hey, it's a big man, you really came to my brother?" ”
Liu Ziqiu looked at it, couldn't help laughing, and said, "It's a sunny day." How can a man be untrustworthy, I have come to your brother to fight him. ”
The person who came was Xiang Li Qingtian, she saw that Liu Ziqiu was only one person, and she also let the horse go slowly, stared at the Mo knife in Liu Ziqiu's hand, and said, "You just used this knife to press my brother so that he couldn't get up, can you show me?" ”
Liu Ziqiu was not worried about the little girl's deception, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you won't be able to take it." ”
Xiang Li Qingtian said angrily: "Hmph, you dare to underestimate me." ”
After finishing speaking, as soon as he urged the war horse, the horse spread its hooves and galloped all the way, and arrived at Liu Ziqiu's side early. Looking at the sunny day again, the whole person was almost standing on horseback, and his riding skills were excellent. Liu Ziqiu's riding skills were first learned from Gao Xiu'er, and later he was guided by Li Jing and Hua Yun. But the riding skills of the three of them are far from those of the previous sunny days. These people, who have lived on horseback since childhood, have extraordinary riding skills.
Xiang Li Qingtian had already arrived in front of him, standing side by side with him, stretched out his hand, and shouted in a coquettish voice: "Bring it!" ”
Liu Ziqiu was afraid that if she couldn't catch it, it would not be beautiful if she was injured, so she naturally didn't dare to really throw the Mo knife to her, and only stuck the knife in the sand.
"It's so heavy!" Xiang Li Qingtian reached out and held the handle of the knife, lifted it hard, his body shook on the horse, and he almost didn't fall down, and couldn't help but praise, "No wonder my brother loses." ”
Liu Ziqiu arched his hand and said: "Dare to ask the girl, what about the clouds?" That time, Liu was victorious, and today he should fight him openly. ”
Xiang Li Qingtian laboriously raised the Mo knife, facing the sunset, but said without thinking: "No need to compare, my brother is not your opponent." ”
Liu Ziqiu shook his head and said: "How do you know your brother's intentions, if you don't compare it again, how can your brother be willing." ”
"Hmph, you say that you can't win, but in fact, you still think that my brother can't beat you?" Xiang Li Qingtian pouted, and said disdainfully, "My brother is not as cautious as you Han people, he is not your opponent, he told me." ”
Liu Ziqiu said: "In this case, why did he ask me to come again?" ”
Xiang Li Qingtian "eats" and said with a smile: "He asked you to come because he thought you were a man and wanted to make you a friend." I didn't expect you to be so stupid, and you were really fooled by him. ”
Liu Ziqiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, growing so big, it was the first time he was described as "stupid". However, in the face of such an innocent little girl, he had nothing to say, so he had to give up: "Liu is also willing to make your brother a friend, and ask the girl to lead the way." ”
Xiang Li Qingtian was displeased: "Don't always be a girl, people have names." ”
Liu Ziqiu smiled: "Yes, I remembered, your name is Qingtian." Sunny girl, give me back the knife and take me to your brother. ”
Xiang Li Qingtian pouted and said angrily: "Don't pay it back!" ”
"Why won't you pay me back? You can't dance this knife again. ”
"If you don't pay it back, if you don't pay it back, you just don't pay it back. You only treat my brother as a friend, not as a friend! ”
"Who said that I am a friend of your brother, and I am also a friend of you."
"Hmph, then why did you add the word girl after the sunny day."
Liu Ziqiu didn't expect the little girl to be accountant about this matter, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, sunny girl, we are good friends, return the knife to me." ”
Xiang Li Qingtian smiled, handed the Mo knife to Liu Ziqiu with both hands, and said, "Knife, return you." But you won't see my brother today. ”
Liu Ziqiu was surprised: "Your brother is not in the village?" ”
Xiang Li Qingtian smiled and said, "My brother is not here, so don't you think I'm a friend?" ”
Liu Ziqiu already knew that this little girl was very difficult, so he waved his hand again and again, and said, "How can it be, I said it, we are good friends." ”
Xiang Li Qingtian raised his whip and said, "That's right, no matter if my brother is not there, you can go back to the village with me first." ”
Liu Ziqiu rode his horse to follow, and hesitated: "When will your brother come back?" ”
Xiang Li Qingtian shook his head and said, "Then I can't say, in short, he went to do something important." ”
