Chapter 15 Soldiers and Horses as Gifts
Not long after Xiang Nan returned to Taiyuan Mansion, he heard the news of the turmoil in Gwangju Mansion, and he sighed lightly.
The expected thing happened.
He wasn't worried that Young Lady Wu wouldn't be able to solve the problem, that woman was domineering but smart and tenacious, but she was going to suffer a big injury.
or bowed to the family and was entangled, or did not bow his head and destroyed the image of benevolence painstakingly created by violence, and the people were afraid and scattered.
Restoring today's prosperity will require much more effort and material resources than before.
These are troubled times, and there aren't so many things that have the best of both worlds.
But unexpectedly, Mrs. Wu Shao held the evidence of the rebellion of the family headed by the family with one hand, and received the emperor's edict from the emperor with the other hand.
This woman is reckless and lucky, and the impossible is just for her to do.
Xiang Nan was silent again, this is also a troubled time, and anything can happen.
Mrs. Wu Shao is a woman, and she can only be reckless, so she will attack Andong, in order to divert the aftermath of the turmoil in Gwangju Mansion, and also to prove her ability to the emperor.
Andong is backed by the army of Ankang Mountain, if it can be captured, of course, it will be a great achievement, but this move is really dangerous, from Gwangju to Andong a long journey to raid, the soldiers and horses are tired and there is not enough food and grass.
The situation near Anton is also chaotic, mixed with the rebels of the Guards, deserters, bandits, like a quagmire ....
If the soldiers and horses of Gwangju Prefecture are helpless, they are afraid that they will fall into a quagmire and it will be difficult to get out.
Xiang Nan turned over and got on his horse: "Let's go quickly." ”
Chen Er grabbed his reins: "Taiyuan Mansion soldiers and horses may accompany him?" ”
Xiang Nanshi went to Taiyuan Mansion to ask for troops, but there were no generals behind him.
Xiang Nan looked back: "They said that the imperial court has an order to garrison the local area, and it is not allowed to be transferred at will, and if you want to send troops, you must first ask Your Majesty." ”
Chen Er is a little soldier who doesn't understand anything, but he also understands what it means: "They don't want to send troops!" ”
When the court came down, Anton's side had already finished fighting.
Xiang Nan shook his head: "No." ”
Chen Er glared at him.
Xiang Nan smiled: "They don't dare." ”
When are you still naughty, Chen Er rolled his eyes.
Xiang Nan whipped his horse whip in the air: "Go." ”
They didn't dare, he dared, Chen Er shouted: "We only have a few hundred people, are we going to send them to death?" ”
Having said that, Chen Er had already followed closely behind and turned over and got on his horse to catch up.
"But one death." Xiang Nandao, the cold wind blew his cloak like a flag.
That young lady Wu still dares to live to death, why doesn't he dare?
Seeing more than 300 soldiers and horses galloping, there were no people on the streets of the city, and there were snoops behind the doors and windows.
But when I came to the city gate, I saw a crowd of people surging around a carriage, and the carriage depicted with white cloud patterns in winter seemed to come from the sky.
"Childe." The woman wrapped in a cloak and with a delicate face like a flower lifted the curtain and got out of the car, blocking the way.
After Xiang Nan came back, he saw and heard the praise of Li Mingqi from Taiyuan Mansion, and the eldest lady from Jiannan Dao took care of the Xiang family, helped Taiyuan Mansion, and became a Dinghai Divine Needle in Taiyuan Mansion.
Although all of this is relying on the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao, for a little girl, it is already commendable to be willing to do things and dare to do things.
Xiang Nan had no reason to be cold to her.
"You're trying to stop me?" He asked amicably.
Li Mingqi smiled: "I stopped my father and grandfather. ”
Xiang Nan was slightly stunned, and smiled slightly: "Thank you." ”
Li Mingqi said: "Childe, there are too few of your people, please let the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao help you." ”
Xiang Nan saw a loyal and honest man standing up next to the car and leaning over to salute.
Before he could speak, there was a voice from the crowd.
"Jiang Hui, there is an order in the court, and the guards are not allowed to leave without permission." Li Fengjing came galloping with people.
Li Mingqi's eyes were annoyed, and his expression remained calm and light: "Fourth uncle, this is the soldiers and horses sent by Mingyu to protect me." ”
If you have to talk about it like this, the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Province can't come to Taiyuan Mansion at all.
Li Fengjing said: "So this is a guard to protect the safety of the eldest lady, how can it be transferred at will?" He bowed to Xiang Nan, "Uncle, you have to lead the troops to Anton to meet the rebels, this is too dangerous, Anton belongs to the capital, how dangerous it is for you to go, not to mention, it will be a catastrophe to attract the rebels to Taiyuan Mansion." ”
As soon as this remark came out, the surrounding people were in an uproar.
Everyone knew that Taiyuan Mansion was suddenly nervous, but in fact, they didn't know what was going on.
Miss Li is the safest guarantee in Taiyuan Mansion, everyone is willing to follow her, and now Miss Li lives outside the Zhuangzi has gathered into a new Zhuangzi.
Xiang Nan looked at Li Fengjing and smiled: "Fourth uncle, the rebels are uneven, there is no real peace in the world, and the rebels are not who can attract them, but they will come sooner or later." ”
Then he patted the horse and walked forward.
Chen Er led 300 soldiers and horses to follow closely behind.
"Childe." Li Mingqi shouted, how could the horse's hooves catch up briskly, she stopped and hated Li Fengjing, and said sharply, "Fourth uncle, will the eldest lady watch her husband fight alone?" If something happens to Xiang Gongzi, how do you let the eldest lady deal with herself? How do you let the Li family and the Xiang family get along? ”
Finally, he gritted his teeth and whispered.
"Are you trying to ruin the reputation of the eldest lady and the Li family?"
Li Fengjing looked at her, not panicked, not in a hurry: "I said, the soldiers and horses are to protect the eldest lady, and the place where the eldest lady is located is the important place, these soldiers and horses protect the eldest lady and protect Taiyuan Mansion, if my uncle stays in Taiyuan Mansion, the soldiers and horses will naturally be used by him, he wants to go to other places to fight, our Jiannan Dao soldiers and horses can't go with him, the soldiers and horses will leave with him, if something happens to Taiyuan Mansion, how will the eldest lady deal with herself?" The Xiang family and the Li family get along like this? ”
asked her what Li Mingqi asked, and gritted her teeth and whispered.
"You're ruining the reputation of the eldest lady. Don't think I don't know, you can only let Xiang Gongzi remember your reputation, but Taiyuan Mansion can't remember it. ”
This kind of little daughter's trick to pretend to be righteous for him!
He wants to leave the soldiers and horses in Taiyuan Mansion, so that the people of Taiyuan Mansion can remember the righteousness of the eldest lady, which is the greatest use for the eldest lady to come back.
Li Mingqi's angry silver teeth were crushed, and someone shouted.
Li Fengjing stretched out his hand and pointed at the people around him, and hurriedly said loudly: "The situation in Anton is critical, isn't the people in Taiyuan Mansion in danger?" Why did the soldiers and horses of Taiyuan Mansion refuse to go? There are so many lives here. ”
The people immediately shouted: "Please protect me!" ”
Some people cried, some shouted, and some knelt down in chaos.
Li Mingqi's face turned pale with anger, and the girl Nian'er had never seen such a scene, and she didn't dare to speak.
"I live and die with Taiyuan Mansion." Li Mingqi stretched out his hand and said loudly to the people around him, and then looked at Jiang Hui and gritted his teeth, "Go quickly!" ”
Jiang Hui turned around and galloped away, and in the distance, the horse's hooves vibrated like thunder, overshadowing the shouts of the people.
It was the tens of thousands of Jiannan Dao soldiers and horses stationed in Taiyuan Mansion.
It is a thick wall barrier of their Taiyuan Mansion.
Now the wall is gone.
The people stopped crying and watched the dark clouds of soldiers and horses rolling away.
"You don't have to be afraid, I, Li Minglou, live and die with everyone, and no rebels dare to invade." Li Mingqi's voice continued to shout.
A member of the public turned his head and looked at the fairy car, the fairy-like woman, and the mighty guards beside the woman.
"Not really." He shouted, "You won't die with us, and when you really die, there will be soldiers and horses to protect you, there will be guards to save you, and we will have nothing!" ”
Li Mingqi was stunned, she had been in Taiyuan Mansion for so long, and it was the first time she had been treated like this.
The rest of the crowd shouted.
"Let's go."
"Let's find another place to be safe."
dispersed like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, only Li Mingqi was left here.
Li Mingqi was angry, ashamed and annoyed, her little face was white and red, her eyes were full of tears, and she looked at Li Fengjing fiercely: "Fourth uncle, are you satisfied with ruining the reputation of the eldest lady?" ”
Li Fengjing said lightly: "What is the reputation of the eldest lady?" Is it just for her husband to seek credit and ignore the reputation of other people's lives and deaths? ”
Li Mingqi shook his sleeves fiercely and took a deep breath: "It's okay, when Xiang Gongzi returns victoriously and leads the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao, these people will naturally be impressed by the reputation of the eldest lady." ”
Li Fengjing said: "Well, yes, that's the eldest lady's soldiers and horses, that's the eldest lady's reputation, it has nothing to do with others, without soldiers and horses, there is nothing." ”
Li Mingqi snorted, flicked his sleeves and got into the car, Nian'er forgot to shake his sleeves to Li Fengjing and followed in a panic.
The carriages and horses galloped away under the support of the guards, still gorgeous, but I don't know if it was without the cheers of the people, and they looked a little lonely.
Li Fengjing stood in place and snorted, although he failed to keep the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao, Li Mingqi's reputation was discredited, and the stuffy air that had been accumulated for many days finally spit out.
The cold wind made him feel comfortable, but he shivered.
There were only a few of him left in front of the city gates.
"This stinky girl is really ruthless, the soldiers and horses said that they would give it away." Li Fengjing said hatefully, "It's really a cub who sells Yetian and doesn't feel distressed." ”
The entourage asked on the side: "Fourth master, are we going back to the barracks?" ”
Li Fengjing frowned and said: "What military camp to go back, the soldiers and horses are gone, how dangerous it is." He turned over and looked at the direction Li Mingqi left, "We moved Zhuangzi up to live, we are all from the Li family, and the guards can't just protect her." ”
