Chapter 46: Marriage

Li Gong slowly walked out of the hall of the Yuanying City Mansion, stood at the door, and watched the soldiers take out the loosened Jin Chong and give him a horse, still without saying a word, silently watching Jin Chong beat the horse and whip and go home.

Suddenly, a voice beside him smiled and said, "General Li, but you can't bear this Commander Jin?" ”

When Li Gong turned his head to look, he was a "man" with a thin body, handsome appearance, wearing a bamboo-blue robe, thirty-four or five years old, but without a beard, and hurriedly smiled: "Yao-Yao sister, this time I was able to capture Yuanying City, thanks to you!" ”

Yao Hei'er pursed her lips and smiled, her face couldn't help revealing a hint of feminine charm, and said, "General Li said these words to me, isn't it a little raw?" Now that General Li has raised his troops, I know that there is no reason to do my best? It's rare to have such a coincidence, and I am slightly familiar with the official mansion in Yuanying City. It is also thanks to Lord Tang's clever arrangement that we have today's success. General Li rest assured, we have already been to the Jin family, and the old lady and wife of the Jin family will persuade Commander Jin to submit to us. Although Commander Jin is strong on the battlefield, he serves his mother with filial piety, and has a very good relationship with his wife, he can give up his life, and he is absolutely reluctant to give up his old mother, wife and children. Besides, what else is there to be loyal to? ”

Li Gong was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "It turns out that you have already taken a step ahead of me and arranged it, so it will be better." Just now I saw that Commander Jin was a little moved, but he was mixed up by Chu Xiang, and he couldn't pull his face again. ”

At this time, suddenly there was a white-armored and white-robed young general, about seventeen or eighteen years old, sassy and heroic, majestic, walked over, saw Li Gong, bowed down, and said: "Father, the other officials in the city have been checked, and they are all willing to submit to us. ”

Li Xuan showed a satisfied smile on his face and said, "It's just like Taocheng, but we just have to make sure that they can't have two hearts." ”

The young general nodded, and was about to turn around and leave, Li Gong said: "Yu'er, this is your aunt of the Yao family, you saw it when you were a child." Hurry up! ”

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, hurriedly gave Yao Hei'er a gift, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yao, I haven't seen you all these years, I don't dare to admit it." Auntie forgiveness! ”

Yao Hei'er's heart moved, and she hurriedly grabbed Li Yu and said with a smile: "This kid, has grown so big?" Looking at it like this, you know that the tiger father has no dog, good! Good! ”

Li Yu showed a hint of shyness and said with a smile: "Auntie has won the award!" Does my aunt have any other orders? If not, the child goes and gets busy. ”

Li Gong waved his hand and said, "You just have to go, I have something to say with your aunt." Li Yu hurriedly agreed, gave another salute, and turned around.

Yao Hei'er looked at this tall and tall figure, walked farther and farther, slowly closed her gaze, and said with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, Yu'er should be eighteen years old, right?" ”

Li Gong hurriedly said: "Sister has a good memory! It's not eighteen years old, and it's not even successful! Let the girl see and laugh. ”

Yao Hei'er nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly changed the topic again: "General Li, how about the young general I brought you?" ”

Li Gong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "But what! I haven't thanked the sister yet, this young general, the sister's training is really good, good martial arts, high archery, and cleverness. I'm short of people here! Listen to the girl's meaning, is she going to put the single iron pillar here to summon me? ”

Yao Hei'er nodded solemnly and said, "General, this iron pillar was raised by me since I was a child, and it is similar to my son, you must treat it well, if there is a mistake, I will not follow it!" ”

Li Gong smiled: "Don't worry about this, I don't dare to be careless." Wait for me to train him in a few more days of arranging troops, so that he will not worry about becoming a general in the future. And that Kong Zang, I like it a lot, so why don't you keep it for me. ”

Yao Hei'er shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm reluctant to give it to you, it's just because his grandfather is the main force of my iron mine, and the old man's two sons died in battle, and the old man is a little afraid of the war, and he can't bear his grandson." I also promised the old man not to let Kong Zang join the army, and besides, I also need to have a strong martial artist there, in case someone comes to make trouble, I can also resist it. ”

Li Gong laughed self-deprecatingly: "It's me who is greedy." There's a single iron pillar, and you've helped me a lot. ”

As he was talking, other generals kept coming to report something else. Yao Hei'er hurriedly said goodbye to Li Gong, and Li Spring hurriedly said: "Sister, you take a rest first, and I have something to discuss with you tomorrow." Yao Hei'er agreed and hurriedly left.

The night was quiet, and Li Gong, who had been busy all day, could finally calm down and consult all the weapons, grain and grass books of Yuanying City under the lamp. Under this investigation, Li Rence's heart is also much more steady, Yuan Yingcheng is really rich in grain and grass reserves, no wonder Jin Chonghui said that it is no problem to be trapped for three years.

The door squeaked softly, and Tang Ji shook his goose feather fan and walked in step by step.

Li Xuan nodded at him, motioned for him to sit down next to him, and said with a smile: "Uncle Tang, you are tired for a day, you should rest early, why did you come over now?" ”

Tang Ji glanced at the books spread out on the table, and said with a smile: "After taking Yuanying City, we have grain and grass, but there is still a shortage of weapons and military salaries." Isn't it? ”

Li Gong pushed the book to Tang Ji and said with a smile: "I can only take my time." It's a pity that Yuan Yingcheng's weapons, especially arrows, were wasted in the process of dealing with us. ”

Tang Ji roughly flipped through the book a few times and said, "Someone took the initiative to supply us with weapons and arrows in the future." It just depends on what the general means. ”

Li Gong was overjoyed and said busily: "Someone is willing to do this, which is naturally a great thing, what else can I not be satisfied with?" Tell me who it is. ”

Tang Ji shook the goose feather fan a few more times slowly, and said: "To make weapons and arrows, iron must be used, and Miss Hei'er is in charge of the largest iron smelting field within a radius of hundreds of miles, who else can she be?" ”

Li Gong smiled: "I was going to talk to the Yao family's sister tomorrow to discuss this matter, but did she take the initiative to ask you about this matter?" It's even better. Just listening to my uncle's voice, does the sister of the Yao family have other requirements? ”

Tang Ji hesitated for a moment and said, "Her request is also a good thing. It's just a pity that it's a step late. ”

Li Gong was surprised in his heart, and hurriedly said, "What is it?" ”

An elusive expression appeared on Tang Ji's face, and he used the handle of the goose feather fan to gently tap on the table, and said, "Miss Hei'er just found me, saying that she wanted to marry the general. She has three daughters in the family, the eldest daughter, Yao Qiong, who is 16 years old this year. If you look at Miss Hei'er's appearance, you know that this girl can't be wrong......"

Li Yu eagerly interrupted Tang Ji's words and said, "Isn't this what I can't ask for?" My second son, Li Sheng, is just 16 years old this year, and my father was close friends with Uncle Yao back then. What's the delay? Wait for me to find the sister of the Yao family and talk to her in person. ”

Tang Ji hurriedly pressed Li Xuan, who had already stood up, back into the chair and said, "What are you anxious about?" And when I'm done, Miss Hei'er wants to marry her daughter to your eldest son, Li Yu. ”

"This ......" Li Gong was also embarrassed: "Uncle, you know, Yu'er has been engaged to General Kou's daughter, and my father is still in charge." Yuan said...... "Speaking of this, Li Gong's eyes couldn't help but redden.

Tang Jidao: "I said the same thing, but when I saw Miss Hei'er's face, it suddenly changed color. As far as I can see, Miss Hei'er wants to marry Yu'er, but it seems that she has other plans. ”

Li Yu looked at Tang Ji suspiciously, and muttered a repeat: "Other plans? Anything else? Suddenly, she remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Today, the sister of the Yao family saw Yu'er, maybe she looked like Yu'er, so she liked it a little." There should be no other plans. ”

"Oh?" Tang Ji paused for a moment and said hurriedly: "Did Miss Hei'er see Yu'er today?" I don't know. Maybe that's the case. But I'm too careful. It's not good for me to take the initiative to mention Sheng'er, since the general you intend to let Sheng'er marry the Yao family, wait for me to mention it to Miss Hei'er, if she agrees, it will be better. In our army, there are good craftsmen who make weapons, and with the Yao family's iron smelting field, the problem of weapons has been solved. ”
