Chapter 131: Helping Hands
"Why did you drink so much!" Wan Bingyu hurriedly helped him to the bed, poured him a cup of strong tea to relieve his hangover, sat on the edge of the bed and helped him drink, "After drinking so much wine, you will definitely have an upset stomach when you get up early tomorrow, ...... you"
Heng Xinyuan saw that she was a little angry, and said with a smile, "I'm fine, but I just drank a little, and I can sleep well......"
"If you drink like this again in the future, I won't care about you!"
"Good, good...... Listen to the lady's ......" Heng Xinyuan took her hand and raised three fingers, "Then I will swear first, and I will never go out to drink in the future!" Otherwise I'll ......"
"Okay, okay, if you don't drink, you won't drink, what do you swear." Wan Bingyu hurriedly stopped him, although he was a materialist, he always didn't want his beloved to be hurt in the slightest.
Heng Xinyuan got up and took off his clothes and asked, "What are you doing in the house?" ”
"I just went to the yard to enjoy the flowers, and I just came back." Wan Bingyu sat under the lamp, holding her chin with her hands, and remembered what Song Siyi said to herself.
The moon had slowly sunk, and the entire Governor's Mansion had fallen into silence, and Heng Xinyuan and Wan Bingyu also fell asleep after freshening up.
After living in the Governor's Mansion for a few days, Heng Xinyuan briefly understood the situation in Liangyuan, as well as the local government affairs and people's conditions, and three days later, Fan Qin sent a team of about ten people to escort the two of them to Liangzhou, and the captain of the escort team was called Wei Qing, who was a lean and capable officer.
I thought that after resting for a few days, my physical strength should improve, but who knew that as soon as I got on the road, Wan Bingyu began to vomit and have a headache, probably because of the lack of adaptation, and I was lying in the car all the time, and I was uncomfortable.
But Wei Qing kept urging the team to increase their speed on the grounds of being in a hurry, completely ignoring her life or death.
"Bingyu, are you alright, come, drink some water." Heng Xinyuan took out the kettle and poured it into her mouth, but before Wan Bingyu could swallow it, the carriage jolted violently, making her vomit it all again.
She frowned and leaned weakly into Heng Xinyuan's arms, comforting him, "I'm fine...... It's ...... It's good to get to Liangzhou, I can hold on a little longer. ”
Seeing that his wife was so uncomfortable, how could Heng Xinyuan endure it, opened the curtains, knocked on the carriage heavily, and shouted at Wei Qing, who was walking at the front of the team, "Stop!" Stop the car! ”
Wei Qing waved his hand, "Stop!" Then he rode up to the side of the cart and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”
"The official's wife is unwell and needs to rest, so let's find a nearby village and town to rest." Heng Xinyuan said in a consultative tone.
Who knew that Wei Qing not only refused to allow it, but instead accused him sharply, "Rest? You two are so noble! With such a close distance from Liangyuan to Liangzhou, how many times have you two rested? Beginning to clamore for a break just an hour a day? If this continues, when will we be able to get to Liangzhou? ”
"You're just in charge of guarding us to Liangzhou, as for when we arrive and how many times we take a break in between, you don't need to care!" Heng Xinyuan said coldly.
"Fan Dudu, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to do, how can I waste all my time on you." The arrogance and disdain on Wei Qing's face added a few layers to Heng Xinyuan's anger, and he walked down from the car quickly, pointing at him and shouting, "Please get off the horse and talk to me!" In any case, I am also the prefect of Liangzhou, and it is disrespectful for you to sit on a horse and talk to me! ”
Wei Qing still maintained his arrogance, and didn't look at him with his eyes, "Official? You officials who only know how to fart in your mouths are really on the battlefield, can you use knives and guns? ”
Heng Xinyuan held back his anger, no longer argued with him, turned around and helped Wan Bingyu out of the car, walked to a big tree with difficulty and sat down to rest, Wan Bingyu gasped weakly, and barely drank a little water.
When Wei Qing saw that they didn't take themselves seriously, he gritted his teeth with hatred, turned around and got off the horse, raised the horsewhip and slashed it towards Heng Xinyuan's back, a heart-rending pain suddenly spread all over his body, Heng Xinyuan fell to the ground with a scream, Wan Bingyu hurriedly protected him, and shouted at Wei Qing, "What do you want to do!" Xinyuan is the prefect of Liangzhou, and you treat the court officials like this! ”
"What's wrong with me doing this? Are you not convinced? Wei Qing grinned and laughed wildly, "Come on, drag them back to the car for me and continue to hurry!" ”
With that, the dozen or so soldiers who accompanied him stepped forward together and dragged them without saying anything.
Just as he was stuck, a shout came from afar, "Stop! Stop it! ”
Listening to the voice, it seemed to be a little familiar, Wan Bingyu raised his head with difficulty and looked over there, and in the dust, he actually saw a familiar face, it was Song Siyi!
When he was stunned, he had already rushed to the front with Wei Yu, and as soon as he got off the horse, he pulled out his sword and put it on Wei Qing's neck, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?" ”
"Song ...... General Song...... We, we didn't do anything......" Wei Qing suddenly replied like a deflated ball.
"Didn't do anything?" Song Siyi's face was as cold as frost, and there was a cold breath in his mouth, "I didn't do anything, why are Lord Heng and his wife so embarrassed, why are there scars on Lord Heng's back, Wei Qing, you are so bold, you dare to hurt Lord Prefect!" ”
Wei Qing hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "The last general knows that he is wrong, and the last general knows that he is wrong...... General Song forgives his sins, please forgive General Song! ”
"Don't think I don't know what you usually do in the army, the fox is fake and the tiger is powerful, abuse of punishment, I turned a blind eye to you in the past, but I didn't expect you to become more and more serious! After returning to Liangyuan, he went to the camp to receive twenty military sticks and was fined half a year's salary! Song Siyi said coldly.
Wei Qing didn't dare to refute, "Yes, yes...... The last general knows ......"
Song Siyi walked up to the two of them, helped them up, and said slightly apologetically, "Master Heng, are you all right?" ”
"It's okay...... Thank you, General Song, for your help. Heng Xinyuan stood up, rubbing his sore shoulders, "Why did General Song appear here......
"Oh, I was just patrolling around, and I didn't expect to see you." He put the saber back into its sheath, "Wei Qing is just a martial artist and doesn't understand the rules of etiquette, so Lord Heng and Mrs. Heng laughed, and Ben will apologize to the two of them for him." ”
Wan Bingyu originally wanted to teach this Wei Qing a good lesson, but when he saw Song Siyi's humble and polite appearance, he just snorted coldly, "On the way here, I heard that Fan Du supervised the army in a good way, and now I look at it, it's nothing more than that." ”
"This ...... It is indeed our fault, Mrs. Heng said. Song Siyi smiled indifferently, "We will definitely strengthen our teaching in the future." ”
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept towards them carrying the yellow sand in the sky, Song Siyi hurriedly let them get into the car, "Lord Heng, you better hurry up, there are often earth movements in the desert, if you don't happen to meet them, there will be big trouble." ”
