Chapter 43: Camellia is still there

Xi Yun looked up at the tall bookshelves, those are not bookshelves, this is another floor in the house, right? Each floor was filled with thick volumes of books, and everyone was busy.

Everyone ignored her, the stranger who had suddenly arrived.

Xi Shangli touched Xi Yun's head funny: "There is a corner when you go out of this door, and you will arrive at the school after walking a few hundred meters inside." But General Su at this point should be going back, since you are here, finish your work and leave. ”

Xi Yun stared blankly at his father's dashing back, full of treacherous looks. A large stack of books suddenly appeared in front of him, and Xi Yun subconsciously reached out to pick it up, but his whole body fell without paying attention.

It's so heavy!! In the future, who said that the reading hand can't be lifted, and the shoulder can't resist, she was the first to rush up and say.

"These books should be moved to Tianzi No. 37 next to it, and the speed should be fast."

From here, No. 37 is already half the roof high, and I don't see a ladder, but there is a ladder, how can she go up with so many books in her hand. Turning his head and wanting to ask again, the man had already left, leaving only Xi Yun with a sentence echoing in his head, "Be fast." ”

"Hey~ The little girl came up by express."

Xi Yun raised his head, didn't think much about it, and stepped the book shelf next to him to perform light skills and went up. The official sitting on the first floor of No. 37 put his hands in his sleeves and looked dumbfounded: "Why are you still floating up?" ”

Xi Yun straightened up and twisted her waist, and sure enough, she couldn't carry a heavy load.

"Whew~~ You don't have a ladder here, how can I give it to you if I don't fly up? You don't know martial arts! ”

The official smiled, but there was irrepressible appreciation in his eyes, and he reached out and pulled a rope next to the cabinet, and with a bang, a solid wooden frame fell from it.

"Miss Xi can pull the rope and put things in the frame, and the person on it will pull it up, because it is equipped with pulleys, so it is more labor-saving." The official paused for a moment, looked at Xi Yun's regretful and helpless expression funny, and turned to comfort: "But Miss's kung fu is more time-saving." ”

So Xi Yun was ruthlessly exploited all morning, and she couldn't remember how many times she had flown up.

"It's hard work, you don't need to use it in the afternoon," Xi Shangli kindly poured a cup of herbal tea for Xi Yun, who was lying on the ground and was dying, and comforted him, and then pointed to the wall behind him: "That's the military of the whole country, I think you came to the Shangli Bureau for a purpose, although I don't know what you want to see, but I think it should be related to Su Jingchi." ”

Xi Yun lay on the ground, sweat sliding down her face, and looked in the direction of her father's finger.

Western border, Su Jingchi, if you dare to go to the western border without telling me, I will follow the army to kill you!

"Miss, all the military files from the past few days are here."

The rich smell of books came to the face, and each one was wrapped in good condition. But there was one dossier that was too abrupt, with a damp and moldy smell filling the nostrils, and a little mildew on the footer. Such an abrupt and strange existence made her feel very uncomfortable, obviously the Shangli Bureau would deal with the damaged books and files regularly, why did no one clean up this one in such a bright position?

When the official of Tianzi No. 37 saw that Xi Yun was about to reach out and open the file that was about to break, he suddenly howled: "Miss! It's already taboo to read the file privately, so don't make trouble for Lord Shangli anymore. ”

Xi Yun was frightened by this voice, and the hand that was about to grab was instantly retracted.

Trouble? If it's so well preserved and left to rot, is someone going to rot it? The only person who can do this is the one on the dragon chair. If he wanted it to rot forever, why should he keep it in the books and let it rot slowly?

Xi Yun looked up at Tianzi No. 37, the official didn't know what he was talking to his father, but both of them had solemn faces.

She doesn't understand the things in the court, she only knows one thing, the Su family and the Xi family have always been neutral. This book cannot be opened, and once it is opened, it means that you are forced to stand in line. Who doesn't love a settled day?

Xi Yun looked at the file of the last three days, "Son of Heaven Order, the Western Barbarians, General Su will ask for help." ”

"Bang!" The dossier was slapped heavily on the wooden board by Xi Yun without pity, as if this thing did not need to be held responsible even if it was broken. On this, it is clearly written "General Su please Ying", the Su family has at least one general, and it is also "Please Ying"... Xi Yun's face was extremely ugly, and there was a volcano in his mind that exploded instantly when he saw this sentence. A layer of frost condensed in his eyes, and it seemed that it was necessary to go to the General's Mansion tonight.

The official next to Xi Shangli put his hands in his sleeves and touched Xi Shangli's arm with his elbow: "Xi Yun is gone, it seems that she is angry. These little couples won't have contradictions, right? ”

Xi Shangli stroked his beard with a smile on his face: "What kind of contradictions do children have that they can't get over." According to her temper, it's time to go to the General's Mansion tonight, what does Brother Fang plan to do next? ”

"The emperor is ashamed of the concubine and treats Princess Qingying kindly. But Princess Qingying still has a grudge against the emperor. I'm afraid that the person who really chews the root of the tongue should be the prince, and General Su must be in danger here. ”

"Is it really okay if you just let Xi Yun go?"

"It's okay, Xi Yun, this girl has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her kung fu is not under Jing Chi or even higher than him. With Lao Su here, plus the two of us secretly supporting, there will be no big problem. Unless, the gods descend to earth. ”

No matter how much Xi Shangli knows about his daughter, he will not be willing to let her be so foolish. It is not so much that General Su has entered the palace so frequently in the past few days to discuss the war with the emperor, but to send information to the Shangli Bureau.

If the two secretly exchange information outside the palace, there will definitely be villains, but it is better to be directly in the palace, under the lights.

On the night when Su Jingchi entered the palace for the first time, General Su entered the palace again on the pretext of checking the situation of the military camp. In the basement of the Shangli Bureau, the three of them began to discuss the crusade on the western frontier.

When General Su took out the map from his arms, Xi Shangli and Fang Xu were still shocked when they saw the map of the western border, there was only one way to reach the western border, but this road was already surrounded by steep cliffs, even if there was no one in the western border, there was no guarantee that there would be no naturally spalled rocks rolling down.

Fang Xu pointed to the almost vertical mountain range icon on the map, and his brows furrowed involuntarily: "The western border is majestic and precipitous, if you want to capture it, you can only combine the inside and the outside, and secondly, food and grass are also a problem. We can go in many ways,"

General Su paced back and forth, and the flickering candlelight shone on his face, which was a rare seriousness in ordinary times.

"You can divide into several teams to attack separately, not to mention whether you are moving forward or not, the most important thing is to have a safe rear. However, this requires a high supply of grain and grass. ”

Xi Shangli: "Brother Fang and I will solve the problem of grain and grass, and now it is about to change, and someone in the court has already started to act." Jing Chi was watched by people on his first expedition, and I don't know how many people wanted him to die in order to provoke the contradiction between the emperor and our family. ”

Fang Xu put his hands in his sleeves, sat on the table obliquely, and said to General Su: "Xi Shangli plans to let Xi Yun accompany the army, and when the time comes, I have to ask Brother Su to release some water, so that the little girl will not be brushed down." ”

"Huh? Lao Xi, what kind of nerves do you have, how can there be a saying that a woman goes to the battlefield, Yun'er is your own daughter, not as a father like you! General Su was a little annoyed, if he had a daughter in the palm of his hand, it would be too late, and he would still let Xi Yun go to the front line to charge?

Xi Shangli guessed that General Su would say this, and explained casually with Chang Ran: "Yun'er won't cause you trouble when she goes, she has been practicing martial arts with Jing Chi since she was a child, and you know what kind of character he Yun'er is, if you hide it this time, it's okay, if you can't hide it, you don't know what to do." ”

Come to think of it, General Su also watched Xi Yun grow up, his son who is not angry, fortunately Xi Yun is forced, otherwise now their Su family has been a general for generations, and he will have a champion. If this is really the case, how can I explain to my ancestors when I go to the underworld!

"Miss is not a female Jiao'e, it will be good to be a female general in the future, and it will be a good story with the Su family."

General Su waved his hand: "Harm! What a good story bad words. Then he pointed to a certain place on the map and continued: "The tribes in the western border are all small tribes, and their weapons and strategies are not as good as ours. ”

Fang Xu proposed: "The general means that they are better at defense than attacking. Since they want to act separately, it is better to ask Jing Chi to lead a small group to the north of the path, at the end of which is a chain bridge, and the people of the western tribe want to go out to take this bridge, but it is very difficult and there are people to defend; Xi Yun led a small team to the west, where the water was so deep that it could only be crossed on horseback, but the rapids were fierce. General Su led a small team directly to the Xixia Guanzheng Road, which was the top priority of their defense, and the firepower was basically there. ”

"The troops in the western territory are limited, and General Su has the most firepower for the children. As long as the two children find a way to overcome the difficulties, even if there are one or two sneak attacks, they will not be their opponents. ”

Xi Shangli nodded, this method is feasible, but General Su is reluctant to pass. At this time, it is a harsh winter, and the western realm is a land of wind and snow, and if you stretch out your hand and stick to the iron chain, and you want to climb over under the premise of the opponent's continuous attack, it is simply difficult to climb to the sky, and if you don't hold on, you will fall into the abyss; The rapids in the west are turbulent, and she can't stand steadily, how can she pass a little girl? Falling into it, it was immediately washed away by the water. It's all places where you can't find a dead body.

Fang Xu seemed to see General Su's concerns, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Don't worry, we are old." Kids have children's whims. ”

It's not that Xi Shangli doesn't care about Xi Yun's life, but he firmly believes that Xi Yun will not let him down.

General Su still felt sorry for the child, and completely disagreed with Fang Xu's statement: "No, no, no, I still think you are too arbitrary, they are all children." ”

"Does the general know about mandarin ducks? Once the other half of the mandarin duck dies, the rest will also die depressed, which is too painful. ”

General Su did not answer Xi Shangli's words, was silent for a long time, and turned to leave.

At dusk, Mrs. Su picked up the red agate in the box and looked at it carefully, the red was like blood, and the color was evenly proportioned, which was definitely the best of the best. It's a good thing, but it doesn't look like an agate. It's not so much an agate as it is a piece of blood jade.

"It's not like agate, but it's a rare good thing to look at the color and touch. If you can make it into a camellia, it must be extremely beautiful, but I look at this thing and panic, you should take it to the temple and put it for a few days. Xi Yun's birthday is not in a hurry at the end of the month. Mrs. Su put the gem in the box and quickly locked it, as if she was going to lose her life at a glance.

Su Jingchi took the box and felt that his mother's reaction was too great, but it was better to send it on Xi Yun's birthday, maybe he could get some fairy blessings.

"Okay, I'll go find a master and send it to the temple."

"By the way, I heard from the people in the palace that you are going to go on an expedition in the past few days, where are you going to go on an expedition?"

Su Jingchi was speechless for a while, he didn't know how to answer, so he simply didn't answer. got up and only said that he wanted to come back later, and then stepped on his horse and fled.

Mrs. Su looked at the back of her son riding away on horseback, and suddenly thought that Xi Yun could marry as soon as possible. She will definitely spoil Xi Yun as if she was her own daughter, if Jing Chi dares to bully her, then she will drive that muddy boy out of the house.
