Chapter 127: Sick
The petite figure who walked into the bath room first put the things in his hand on the wooden shelf near the window, then pulled out a piece of linen cloth from it and walked towards the bath tub.
"Huanniang, why are you here?" Through the misty mist, Liu Wei saw that the person who was standing by the barrel was Tao Huanniang, and hurriedly asked.
"The slave family came to collect His Highness's clothes to be cleaned!" Putting the linen cloth in her hand on the edge of the barrel, Tao Huanniang turned around and walked to the side, picked up the dirty clothes and leather armor that Liu Wei had thrown on the ground, bowed to Liu Bian, and retreated.
Looking at Tao Huanniang's figure exiting in the mist, Liu Wei blinked his eyes twice, and his head was full of fog.
"Someone!" When Tao Huanniang withdrew and walked away, Liu Wei shouted to the door.
"What does Your Highness command?" Hearing Liu Wei's shout, a personal soldier ran into the house, stood not far from the barrel, and responded with both hands clenched into fists.
"How can people come in at will without the king's command?" Liu Wei frowned slightly, and said to the pro-soldier with a bit of blame in his tone: "In the future, this king will take a bath, and no one will be allowed to enter!" ”
"No!" The soldiers hugged their fists and bowed, first responded, and then raised their heads and said to Liu Wei with some embarrassment: "It's just that the Huanniang girl entered, but the military advisor specially ordered ......"
"Strategist?" Listening to the pro-soldier's statement, Liu Wei frowned, waved his hand at the pro-soldier and said, "You can go." ”
The soldier bowed with his fists in his fist, answered again, and exited the room.
Since the fighting team is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more guards around Liu Wei, with Tao Huanniang, if there is no order from Xu Shu, it is indeed impossible to enter the room where he bathes.
But Liu Wei couldn't understand what purpose Xu Shu had for letting the soldiers let Tao Huanniang go.
After marching in the mountains and forests for more than ten days in a row, Liu Wei was already tired and ruthless. Meimei took a hot bath and changed into clean clothes that Tao Huanniang put on the wooden shelf of the window, and he suddenly felt much refreshed.
Several pro-soldiers had already taken care of the room for him, and the bath had been completed, and under the guidance of the pro-soldiers, Liu Wei came to the house where Dayang Ling lived.
When he arrived at the door, one of the soldiers helped Liu Wei open the door.
Two thick white candles were lit in the house, and a gust of wind poured into the house through the open door, and the flames on the white candles shook violently under the blowing of the wind, and the light projected in the room also kept vibrating.
Liu Wei walked into the house, and the soldiers guarding the door immediately closed the door, the wind stopped, and the candle flame stopped swaying.
On the ground on the left, there is a thick mattress. The candlelight reflects the fabric of the mattress, and the fabric woven from silk reflects a silky sheen.
When he first crossed, Liu Wei lived in the palace for a few days, and he covered this kind of silk mattress at that time. The silk mattress covers the body, which is very soft and smooth, but it is not as good as the linen mattress to keep warm.
Just took a shower and lay on the bed, Liu Bianmei stretched his waist, pulled up the mattress to cover his body, closed his eyes, and entered the dream after a while.
The night of sleep always passes quickly. Before I knew it, the sun had climbed up three poles, and the golden sunlight filtered through the window, reflecting a boxy spot of light in the room.
Liu Wei opened his misty sleepy eyes and sat up with his hands on the mattress.
As soon as he sat up, a personal soldier's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, the military advisor has completed the inventory of the treasury, and put all the confiscated Dayang officials' family properties into the warehouse. ”
"Let the military advisor send it!" Sitting on the mattress, Liu Wei felt dizzy, and after listening to the report of his own soldiers, he replied a little weakly.
The soldiers responded, Liu Wei was about to lie down and sleep more, the door was gently opened, and Tao Huanniang's petite figure appeared at the door.
Holding the clothes and armor that had been cleaned for Liu Wei with both hands, Tao Huanniang entered the house, first put the clothes neatly on the wooden frame in the corner of the house, and then walked to the cover with the armor, held the armor high with both hands, and said softly to Liu Bian: "The clothes and armor have been washed for His Highness!" ”
The leather armor held in Tao Huanniang's hand, the original dusty cowhide has been cleaned spotlessly, and even the copper sheet inlaid on the armor is as bright as new.
"Thank you!" Seeing Tao Huanniang walk into the house, Liu Wei, who had not had time to lie down again, sat up straight, stretched out his hand to take the armor, smiled at her and said, "Go get busy, I still want to continue sleeping." ”
Liu Bian's voice seemed very tired, Tao Huanniang, who felt that something was wrong, hurriedly raised her head to look at Liu Bian, and when she found that Liu Bian's cheeks were red, she was suddenly startled, and quickly got up and reached out to help Liu Bian, let him lie down, and said with some worry: "Your Highness may be suffering from the cold, lie down quickly, the slave family will go to call the doctor to come!" ”
"No, just get some sleep!" Lying on the bed, Liu Wei looked at Tao Huanniang with a heavy worry on her face, and said to her: "A little problem, if I am also called a doctor, wouldn't I be too delicate?" ”
"Your Highness is a nobleman, and he is already delicate!" Helping Liu Wei cover the mattress and tighten it for him, Tao Huanniang stretched out her hand and probed his forehead, and said with a little disgust: "It's as hot as a stove, how can you still say that it's okay, Your Highness and rest in peace, the slave family will go to call a doctor!" ”
As she spoke, Tao Huanniang stood up and turned around to walk towards the door.
As soon as she stood up, her little hand was grabbed by Liu Wei, who was lying down.
Holding her little hand, Liu Wei looked at Tao Huanniang, who was a little worried in her shyness, and said to her softly: "Thank you, Huanniang!" ”
Tao Huanniang didn't speak, just smiled sweetly and shyly, pulled out the hand held by Liu Wei, and exited the room.
At the same time, inside the military camp of Dayang City. Thousands of officers and men stood in the school yard, facing the high platform of the school yard, and lined up in a not very neat line.
Xu Shu stood on the high platform of the school field with his hands on his hips, and behind him stood a group of soldiers who had just changed into a large red army uniform and brand new leather armor, while in front of him were more than a dozen large baskets full of copper coins.
The group of soldiers standing behind Xu Shu was the escort he had selected from among the officers and soldiers, and each of them had a brand-new long sword hanging from his waist, standing straight behind Xu Shu.
After a night's rest, and a new set of equipment and armor, this group of soldiers looked full of spirit and grandeur.
The officers and soldiers on the school field, who had not yet changed their equipment and armor, smacked their mouths one by one, and looked at the team of officers and soldiers standing behind Xu Shu with envy on their faces.
On the side of the high platform, piles of armor and weapons are placed. Next to the armor and weapons, there were large red military uniforms like a hill.
The five elements of the Han Dynasty are the virtue of fire, since the Han Gaozu, except for the different colors of the clothing and armor of the princes' army, the clothing and armor of the central Han army are all red as the main color.
Liu Wei was orthodox in the Han Dynasty, equipped with officers and soldiers, and would choose the traditional colors of the Han army.
Since Dong Zhuo occupied Luoyang, the clothes and armor of the Han army in the Luoyang area were forcibly changed by Dong Zhuo to the pure black of the Xiliang army. The treasury of Dayang City originally stored many big red military uniforms, but because Dong Zhuo ordered to change the color of the military uniforms, the red military uniforms had to be packed and sealed, and the total amount exceeded more than 10,000 sets.
Searching the treasury, Xu Shu found not many copper coins, but there were a lot of armor and equipment. If the entire treasury is emptied, it can be reluctantly replaced with equipment for the whole army.
"Soldiers!" All the officers and soldiers had arrived, Xu Shu crossed his waist with his hands, and shouted to the officers and soldiers: "Before capturing Dayang, His Royal Highness once said to his own army. The soldiers follow His Highness to fight, and they must not owe you and so on! In the past, we had no food and money, and we suffered the soldiers, but today this army division was ordered by His Royal Highness to raid the Dayang Mansion treasury, and the money obtained will issue the first military salary to the soldiers! ”
"Long live Your Highness! Long live the military advisor! As soon as Xu Shu's words fell, thousands of officers and soldiers raised their fists high and cheered in unison.
"This military division has already found the blacksmiths and carpenters in the city to recycle the old blades of your and others and remake them into new blades, and today we will issue all of you with new weapons!" Xu Shu pressed his hand twice on the officers and soldiers, waited until the officers and soldiers calmed down, and then shouted to them: "The generals of each army are out of the ranks!" ”
As Xu Shu shouted, more than a dozen officers in leather armor stood up, straightened up, and stood under the high platform.
"Distribute military pay and uniforms!" Xu Shu shouted an order to one of the guard officers behind him, and then turned his head to glance at Dian Wei, who was also standing on the stage but four or five steps away from him.
Seeing Xu Shu's eyes, Dian Wei jumped off the high platform knowingly and walked towards a relatively secluded place.
With the assistance of more than a dozen partial generals, the officers and soldiers of the guards began to distribute clothes and armor and military salaries to the officers and soldiers, while Xu Shu got off the high platform and walked towards Dian Wei.
"Why hasn't Your Highness arrived?" Before Dian Wei approached, Xu Shu lowered his voice and asked him.
"In the last tense, His Highness has not yet risen!" Dian Wei replied with a fist in his fist, and said to Xu Shu: "Or, the last general will go and urge?" ”
"Good!" Xu Shu nodded, his brows furrowed slightly, and said to Dian Wei: "After the military salary is distributed, the military discipline must be announced to the whole army, if His Royal Highness does not come, the military discipline cannot be issued, there is General Lao!" ”
Dian Wei answered, turned around and strode towards the outside of the barracks.
The barracks were busy distributing salaries, armor and ordnance, but Liu Wei was lying on the bed, and the whole person had fallen into a semi-coma.
"Your Highness has been tired for days, and suffered from the wind and cold, and last night the bath suddenly relaxed, and the body bones couldn't stand it, so it was hot!" A doctor about forty or fifty years old knelt beside Liu Wei and said to Tao Huanniang, who was standing behind him: "Xiaomin can administer needles to His Highness, and if he is good for a few days, he will be cured!" ”
"There are laborers!" Tao Huanniang was short, gave a salute to the doctor, and said to him: "Please ask the doctor to administer the needle!" ”
The healer answered, and took out a sandalwood box from the small wooden box in front of him. Opening the box, a row of silver needles of different sizes and lengths appeared in front of Tao Huanniang's eyes.
