Chapter 408: Request

"Heh, the county lord doesn't want to explain." Liu Yu took away his fan, "After all, the official level crushes people to death, right?" ”

Ouyang Qingqing should not, throw up his sleeves and leave.

Again and again, nothing was found.

This time, the barbarians finally began to move in earnest, and several surprise attack troops took advantage of the familiar mountain situation to beat Luo Licheng's men and horses all the way.

The front line came to report that Luo Licheng was seriously injured.

After several battles, Luo Licheng was injured for the first time, and he was lying alone in the camp tent, and it was said that it was difficult to get out of bed.

The emperor attached great importance to Luo Licheng, and after learning about the matter, he sent several batches of doctors to the frontier in succession, each with his own medical skills.

Ouyang Qingqing has been lying about her illness since she was caught, and no one has come, only Yongxue knows that she is trying to hide from her.

"Girl, breakfast is here." Yongxue put the porcelain bowl on the table, "I boiled healthy porridge in the dining room today." ”

"I have a heart." Ouyang Qingqing walked out from behind the curtain, made a decision on the wooden chair, and took a mouthful of porridge, but did not eat.

Yongxue was a little strange: "Doesn't the porridge have a good appetite?" ”

"Not really." Ouyang Qingqing put the spoon down and turned his head lightly, "In addition to Luo Licheng's serious injury, is there any other news coming from the frontier?" ”

"I haven't heard of this, and the health of the camel horse has not been heard accurately, but the news of the barbarian attack is often heard."

Yongxue replied, and a look of ridicule suddenly flashed on her face: "Girl, are you worried about the concubine?" Not long ago, when the horse master was there, he didn't care, but after the accident, he knew that he was worried. ”

"Yongxue." Ouyang Qingqing was unusually serious, "Don't talk too much, don't mention Luo Licheng's matter to me." ”

"Know...... Got it, girl. Yongxue stopped her chattering mouth in time.

In the evening, the emperor summoned Ouyang Qingqing into the palace.

The eunuch who came to report did not say anything, but Ouyang Qingqing already knew what was going on.

Ouyang Qingqing walked through the jade stairs in front of the palace, crossed the threshold, and entered the emperor's study.

The emperor was very busy, and the folds in front of the case were stacked like a mountain.

Seeing Ouyang Qingqing, he squeezed out a smile: "Qingqing, sit down." ”

"Uncle Huang." Ouyang Qingqing nodded to the emperor, "You are looking for Qingqing to come here this time to help the master of the horse?" ”

"Qingqing is really ice and snow smart." The Emperor complimented, "At the moment, I haven't said anything, but you've guessed the right thing." ”

"According to the report from the doctor on the front line, Luo Luma's body is not necessarily optimistic now, and if he can survive these few days, he will be safe, but if he can't survive a life, he will definitely return to the west."

"I know you still have a grudge against him because of the child's affairs. But where is there an overnight feud between husband and wife, although he doesn't talk about it, I also know that he must be thinking that you can go to see him. ”

The emperor said in a good voice, and the meaning of consolation was obvious.

Ouyang Qingqing pursed the corners of her mouth, her face was still calm, but her body was obviously tense.

"The emperor understands what Qingqing means, Qingqing also thought so before, but he didn't expect it to coincide with you."

She soothed for a moment and spoke calmly.

The emperor was overjoyed and got up directly: "Qingqing can also think like this, of course, it is the best." It's a long way from the capital to the frontier, and the saddle horse is tired, so I will arrange for the guards to send you off, and you can go back and rest early. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." 118

Ouyang Qingqing left for the frontier the next day.

It was a long way to the border, so she only picked out some clothes and necessities that were easy to carry, and kept the rest in the house.

Yongxue wanted to go with her, but was stopped by Ouyang Qing: "It's not child's play to go to the frontier this time, it's enough for me to go alone, and it will inevitably be inconvenient for the two of them." ”

A visible loss flashed in Yongxue's eyes, and Ouyang Qingqing only smiled at her: "I'll be back soon, don't worry." ”

"That'...... That Yongxue is waiting for the girl. Yongxue's eyes suddenly lit up.

Ouyang Qingqing turned around and got into the carriage.

The carriage was gone, and the expectation in Yongxue's eyes did not disappear, but at this moment, she didn't know that Ouyang Qingqing was gone.

Out of the capital, and then through Yongzhou and other places, it is a desert area full of yellow sand.

The horse's hooves stepped on the desert, and the yellow sand splashed one after another, Ouyang Qingqing had grown up pampered since he was a child, and he had never seen such a difficult scene.

"Uncle Dong, let the horses run slower." Ouyang Qingqing poked his head out and shouted at the car, "This dusty one is even inside." ”

The coachman reined in and said a little apologetically: "Girl, don't blame, I, Dong Yilong, have been running on this desert for so many years, and I didn't pay attention to it on a whim." ”

"It's okay, just slow down next time." Ouyang Qingqing stuck his head back.

The tents of the country were set up in the city of Mingyue.

Mingyue City is a remote frontier town, with only a few hundred families in it, and even fewer after the war began, all of them went to the interior to avoid chaos.

The local county lord is also a petty official who has been demoted from the capital, and he has no ability, only a clever mouth.

It was the first time he saw the living county lord, and his attitude was as if he had picked up a treasure: "The county lord has been driving for so many days, you might as well follow the old man into the door and sit." ”

"There is labor." Ouyang Qingqing really couldn't hold it anymore, she didn't intend to refuse.

The county government is a land of poverty and poverty, with only a collapsed bed that can barely sleep on people's homes, a mat made of bamboo and wood, and a quilt that has faded its original color.

There is also a table, one of the four legs is short, and the other is long, and it can only be supported by a few large stones to resist the effect.

"The county lord, please." The county commander smiled a little helplessly, "Our Mingyue City is already relatively desolate, and my house is already good, I hope the county lord will not dislike it." ”

Ouyang Qingqing walked in generously, threw off his robe, and sat on the edge of the table: "The county order doesn't have to be restrained, it's good that I can have a place to stay." ”

After saying this, the county commander's heart was obviously relieved, and his attitude became a lot more sincere.

"Mingyue City is still a few miles away from General Luo's camp, and it is not early now, if the county lord wants to, he will stay here first, and I will send someone to send you there tomorrow."

The county magistrate said as he added a cup of tea to Ouyang Qingqing: "But if General Luo comes at night, the county lord can also take the first step." ”

"I'm not in a hurry anyway, it's been so long along the way, and I'm not in a hurry to wait a while." Ouyang Qingqing smiled and took a sip of tea.

The county order has always been poor, and he has never had much affection for people from the royal family like Ouyang Qingqing, but after chatting with her more and more deeply, he can feel a kind of familiarity.

"The old man has been in power here for so many years, and it is the first time that he has agreed to talk to someone for so long." The county magistrate touched his own goatee.

Ouyang Qingqing changed her posture and continued to sit, and said the same: "I rarely have long conversations with people, and this time it is rare to be able to find your old friend." ”

The corner of the county commander's mouth raised a quiet smile, and there was a faint reluctance in his eyes: "When we say goodbye tomorrow, we don't know when we will meet." The knife is ruthless on the battlefield, and it is better for the county lord to be careful. ”

"Thanks for the reminder."
