Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Mountains Are High and the Waters Are Long
In this way, the affection continued to the fork in the road. Xie San wanted to continue to the north and go to the north to comfort the army, but Haitang wanted to go straight to Beijing. It's just that this post station is still a day's journey from Beijing, which is not short or long.
In the room of the post station, Xie San was stunned at the begonia, and was determined to postpone it for two more days, and after sending the begonia to Beijing, he would transfer to the border town.
Ling Xue hurriedly walked in: "Lord Wang, there is an urgent report!" ”
Xie San opened it and saw that it was a letter from the mansion, one informing Ling Feng and Ling Yun that the goods had been sent to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing for safekeeping, and everything in the mansion was safe; Second, the emperor's will was transmitted, saying that the emperor learned that King Duan had not arrived in the border town for a long time, and he must arrive within two days, otherwise he would be dealt with by military law.
The most hateful thing is that there is also a clause written on it: The Tianzhen Festival is approaching, please ask King Duan to visit the nine towns on behalf of the emperor, reward the three armies, and then deliver the rewards to the towns.
Xie San suddenly sighed for a long time, gloomy and bleak, life is worse than death!
If you want to go through the nine passes, it will take two months to return to Beijing even if you are fast! And if you must reach the first stop within two days, you can't send Begonia into Beijing. In addition, these two months were spent walking along the border, which was extremely risky, and at any time encountered a sneak attack by the Tatars and Warats. Definitely a chore!
What Xie San didn't know was that this drudgery was begged for him by Ji Guifei by knocking on the side and sowing discord. Otherwise, how can it seem that Xie Si is doing things well, and how can he ask the emperor for a reward?
Ling Xue was not calm when she saw this holy decree of consolation, and shouted: "Lord Wang, just a few of us can't do it, we have to call Ling Feng and them too!" ”
"Lord Wang, we will be able to go to the capital tomorrow, let them all follow you." Haitang also looked at him worriedly, thinking in his heart that he had to let Xie San bring more medicine on the road.
Ling Shuang also nodded and said, "I can protect the girl!" And it's only one day, and it's no problem for me to drive alone! "Indeed, with Ling Shuang's martial arts, there is no problem in dealing with a few hooligans and rotten boys. Moreover, this is an official road close to the capital, where people come and go, and gangsters rarely choose this place to do their work.
Although Xie San was unwilling, he could only agree.
Begonia found hemostatic powder, muscle-building powder, snake repellent powder, blood tonic pills, detoxification pills, and heat-relieving pills...... They filled several small bottles and labeled them. I picked two or three more emergency ones, rolled them into a waist bag with a piece of cloth, and prepared to tie them around Xie San's waist.
Xie San was wearing a silver dark striped robe and stepping on a pair of dark riding boots. This cloth is silver-gray, and when put together, it looks good.
"Okay! Am I going to reward the three armies, or am I going to sell medicine? Xie San opened his arms and let her tie the waist bag. Looking at her nervous appearance again, she couldn't help but smile again: "By the way, let's see if there is any general soldier who needs to order, this trip is hard, and it is not a loss to get some business for our pharmacy to come back." ”
"You're poor, it's best not to use it all, come back and give it back to me as it is!" Begonia rolled her eyes at him. Xie San felt warm in his heart.
Out of the post station, Haitang looked at Xie San and stopped talking, Xie San's heart was also like 10,000 ants crawling, he didn't care if anyone saw it, he grabbed Haitang's hand, and put his hands in front of his chest: "Wait for me in Kyoto." Your life, I take it well, my heart, please accept it from the girl! ”
Haitang smiled slightly, tilted his head and said mischievously: "I have long collected it and dried it, wrapped it in honey and marinated it, and it will not be bad for the rest of my life." ”
Xie Sanxi excitedly raised Begonia's hand to his lips and kissed it, and couldn't help laughing: "It turned out to be honey!" No wonder I always feel so sweet in my heart! ”
The two of you looked at me, and I looked at you, and they both laughed stupidly. These two are:
I have no choice but to wave my hand, the mountains and rivers are long, and I know them!
Let's start with Duanwang and his entourage of seven people, with their hooves and whips, against the dark clouds and winds that the mountain rain is coming, they rushed towards Xuanfu Town with bated breath.
Cheng Yu led the soldiers to greet him at the gate: "His Royal Highness King Duan, the last general has been waiting for a long time!" I have already reported that you are coming to Xuanfu to inspect, but I don't know why Your Highness is more than ten days late. ”
King Duan looked at Cheng Yu, who was calm and capable and majestic in front of him, and Cheng Hanbai, who was radiant and strong behind him, and couldn't help but admire the heart of Aiwu and Wu.
In their previous lives, their father and son were involved in the prince's rebellion, and together with the prince, they were shot to death by random arrows in the palace and thrown in mass graves, and there was no one to collect the corpses. It was still King Duan who asked people to find the two corpses and quietly dragged them elsewhere to bury them. Pity a loyal martyr who became a victim of the struggle between the king and the prince.
King Duan followed the future Lord Yuezhang into the main hall, hurriedly took out the commendation order and the reward decree and read it out, and then motioned for Cheng Yu and Cheng Hanbai to enter the inner room with him.
"General Cheng, this king has something to tell you, and this matter is indeed related to what this king met on the way." Duanwang is colorful.
Cheng's father and son didn't know why, and looked at each other in confusion.
"General Cheng, did you lose a daughter fifteen years ago?"
Before Duanwang's words fell, Cheng Yu stood up in shock!
