Chapter 39: Sisters of One Heart
Miss Li's carriage and horse frequently passed through the streets.
Soldiers and horses and generals also often run to the Li house, in addition, there are also letter soldiers carrying the banner of Li to Huainan Road
"Miss Li wrote a letter to Xiang Weishu of Huainan Province." The people on the street soon got the news, "Please help him, guard Huainan Road and Jiangnan Road, the two provinces are closely related." ”
Huainan Province and Gangneung Mansion have always been in contact, when Gangneung Mansion was besieged by the rebels, Hu Zhifu asked for help from all directions, Huainan Province Chu sent reinforcements, and now there is a Chu army in Jiangnan Province to fight with the rebels to defend the city.
But that's just a friend of the guard, relying on the righteousness of the comrades of Great Xia, this world, the righteousness between the officials and soldiers is not very reliable, close to say, some generals on the surface hello and I am good, privately with people to grab land and grab grain and grass, far away, Linzhou War, Xiang Dudu front to fight, in the rear to assist the southeast road soldiers and horses said to run away
But now it's different, Huainan Province came to Xiangnan, Miss Li came to Jiangling Mansion, the husband and wife are a family, and Huainan Province and Jiangling Mansion are also a family.
Colleagues and friends can be ruthless and unrighteous, and the family will not be gone, and the father and son will fight the tiger and the brother.
If Gangneung Mansion is in trouble, how can a husband sit idly by? Gangneung Province was worry-free, so despite the frequent movement of soldiers and horses, the people relaxed instead.
The atmosphere in Li's house was a little tense, and this time a group of soldiers and horses came, and instead of waiting outside the door, they rushed in directly.
"Let Miss Minghua come out!"
"Give us an explanation of this!"
"What? The eldest lady is in charge? ”
"Then let the eldest lady come out!"
These soldiers and horses are violent, not as majestic and solemn as the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao, if it weren't for the fact that they were wearing military robes like a group of bandits, they were holding flags in their hands, even though these flags were about to poke the guards in the faces, everyone still didn't dare to stop or take them.
There was only one word on that banner, Chu.
They carried this Chu character flag and rushed into Li's house, until Li Minghua came out and scolded the generals to come in and talk, and half of the soldiers and horses withdrew, and the other half except for one general, the rest were pro-soldiers.
"My locusts are now, and my men are five thousand."
When Li Mingqi came back and entered the door, he heard the general say loudly that he was not good-looking, sitting crookedly on a chair, and he didn't know etiquette at a glance, and there were two rows of guards standing behind him.
Half of the Li family's hall was occupied, and they all had weapons in their hands, and their military flags were as tall as people.
"Isn't it normal for a general of my size to have dozens of guards around me? What's out of the way? ”
The scoundrel's righteousness was strong, and Li Mingqi pursed his lips and smiled.
Li Minghua, who was sitting on the other side, didn't smile and said, "Even if you have 5,000 people under your command as your guard, it's also in order, but what rules do you have for breaking into my private house?" ”
The locust slapped the table: "Private house? Miss Minghua is not a private person, she is a person who gives orders to the soldiers and horses of Gangnam Province in Gangneung Province, and the place where she is located cannot be regarded as a private house. ”
Li Mingqi saw it, this locust slapped the table and glared at it with a fierce attitude, but there was no anger towards Li Minghua in his eyes, and Li Minghua scolded him with a heavy face, and there was no fear in his eyes, they should be very familiar with each other.
"I am the one who gives the order now." She said, "Tell me something." ”
Nian'er also hurriedly shouted: "The eldest lady is here." ”
Li Minghua stood up, the locust was originally sitting, and when he saw Li Minghua standing up, he reluctantly stood up too.
"Miss, you ordered us to guard Huaiyu Mountain?" He spoke directly, "There are not so many troops available on the Huaiyu Mountain side, and the Fuchuan side is in a hurry, and if we transfer away, it will be difficult to protect the southeast side." ”
Li Mingqi said: "How can the southeast be difficult to protect? There is also a southeast road. ”
"Southeast Province is not Gangnam Province." The earth locust shouted, glaring at the eldest lady who was shrouded in the power fence, "You are the eldest lady of Jiannan Dao?" Your dad is the very powerful Metropolitan Governor? Will you go to war at all? ”
Li Minghua shouted: "Shut up." ”
The locust pursed his lips and did not speak again.
"Since you have 5,000 generals under you, you know that military orders are like mountains, not only do you not abide by military orders, but you even dare to question and roar? I'm not going to talk to you. Li Minghua said, "Let Captain Zhou come." ”
The locust snorted: "Zhou Duwei, Zhou Duwei, I'll go and invite." ”
After that, he threw up his sleeves and walked out, muttering in his mouth.
"If you don't tell me, tell Zhou Shishi, isn't the truth the truth? Zhou Shishi is not as good-tempered as me. ”
A group of people left with flags on their shoulders, and Li Mingqi turned around to see it, not in a hurry or annoyed.
"This is the soldiers and horses of Mrs. Chu, it is indeed mighty." Her voice was still smiling, and she turned her head to look at Li Minghua again, "They listen to Minghua very much." ”
"At the beginning, we worked together to relieve the siege of Jiangling Mansion and share hardships and hardships." Li Minghua said, don't mention this more, look at Li Mingqi, "You have mobilized a lot of soldiers and horses recently?" ”
Li Mingqi said yes, walked to the hall, and said: "Recently, it is different from before, Ankang Mountain is the defeated capital, and the other rebels are crazy, and they are in a hurry. ”
Let's turn back.
"Minghua, I didn't tell you these things, you won't be angry, right?"
"The main thing is that the fourth uncle is also working on this, he wants you to rest more, don't bother about these things."
Li Minghua said: "If you don't tell me, I'm not angry, but if these arming and deployment are unreasonable, I will be angry." ”
Li Mingqi said: "Isn't it reasonable? It's agreed on by everyone, how"
Li Minghua walked to the map in the hall, looked at it for a moment and said: "Huaiyu Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the rebels will not bother themselves, Fuchuan is much more critical here than Huaiyu Mountain, this transfer is indeed unreasonable." ”
Li Mingqi walked over, stretched out his finger, and said, "But Huaiyushan is very important to our eastern defense line, and with here, we can encircle the rebels from the northeast, south, and south." ”
She turned around and grabbed Li Minghua, lifted the veil, and smiled sweetly with bright eyes.
"There's Xiang Nan in the north, you know him, right? He is powerful now, and Mrs. Chu Guo handed over Huainan Dao to him. ”
Mrs. Chu handed over Huainan Province to Xiang Nan, and it had already spread in Jiangnan Province, and the soldiers and civilians privately said that Xiang Nan was powerful, but the meaning of this power was still different from what Li Mingqi said
is his sister, and this Xiang Nan is not Li Mingqi's real husband, Li Minghua doesn't mention this.
"But Fuchuan is dangerous." She said, "The southeast side of Gangnam Province is going to be gnawed off a large piece." ”
Li Mingqi's hand pressed on her hand and held her arm: "But it's dangerous here, and it's dangerous on the other side of the Southeast Road, and the Southeast Road will inevitably send troops." ”
Li Minghua frowned and looked at her: "Do you want to send troops from the Southeast Road?" Isn't this cutting oneself to force others to the detriment of others? ”
Li Mingqi shook her arm, leaned close to her ear and whispered: "As long as the Southeast Road sends troops, we will send troops together with Huainan Road, and attack back and forth to encircle and suppress An Dezhong." ”
Li Minghua sighed, looked at the map and groaned.
"Minghua, what do you think?" Li Mingqi asked, "The fourth uncle also knows." ”
Li Minghua said: "I don't know much about war, I want to ask everyone." ”
Li Mingqi held his face and said, "Minghua thinks I can't fight?" Don't believe me? ”
In this familiar gesture, Li Minghua reached out and pinched her face: "Don't do this kind of posture, it's useless to be coquettish at this time, this is not who eats an extra snack, wants a new dress and new jewelry, this is a matter related to the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers and people." ”
Li Mingqi hugged her arm and smiled: "I know, so our sisters are cautious and work together to guard our home." ”
She put her head on Li Minghua's shoulder, and her voice was faint.
"I thought I would never be able to go home again, Minghua, being outside is really different from being at home."
Like a kitten crawling on her shoulder, no matter how hard the bones are, she can't help but be soft, Li Minghua sighed lightly and reached out to pat her: "Don't be afraid, our family will be fine." ”
Li Mingqi hugged her tightly, and the two sisters hugged each other for a moment in front of the map.
"I'll go to the barracks and ask them to gather the generals." Li Mingqi got up and said with a smile, "Minghua, you are familiar with the Chu army, you go and invite their main general, and then you come over together." ”
Li Minghua nodded and said hello.
Li Mingqi put on the veil again: "Then I'll go now, and you can go out as soon as possible." ”
Li Minghua nodded: "I know." ”
Li Mingqi waved at her and walked out accompanied by Nian'er.
"Miss, you just came back and are going out again, and you haven't rested yet."
"What are you resting, everyone is very busy, I still have Minghua to help, Minghua was only one person before."
"Yes, Miss Minghua is really not easy."
Li Minghua stood in the hall, listening to the fragmented thoughts of the master and servant and watching them walk away, he couldn't help but smile, Nian'er, this girl has not changed at all, Mingqi has at least learned to pretend not to be squeamish.
"Miss Minghua." The maidservant Ah Yue came over to give a salute, "Are you going out?" The slave and maid are waiting for you to change your clothes. ”
Li Minghua glanced at her, hummed, turned around and walked inward, and Ah Yue followed with her head bowed.
The carriage shook, the noise outside the curtain was still there, and the voices of the eldest lady came and went, and soon the carriage drove out of the city.
Nian'er hurriedly pressed the curtain, and her eyes were shining.
"Miss, are you all ready?" She asked, in a low voice.
"Ready, as soon as she rides out of the city, the soldiers and horses will tie her up and go directly to Shannan Road." Li Mingqi looked at his little finger and said lazily, "What is there to prepare for, the eldest lady can move a house in a word, let alone move a person." ”
Nian'er stroked her palm happily: "Great, I finally sent this annoying Miss Minghua away." ”
"She's not annoying, she's pretty good." Li Mingqi said, "It's so powerful, wouldn't it be more appropriate to go to Jiannan Dao and Mingyu's side to help?" ”
Nian'er nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes, the eldest lady is really thoughtful." ”
She took out the teapot from the car and set them out one by one.
"Fortunately, I prepared food, Miss worked so hard, I haven't drunk saliva when I get home."
Li Mingqi pinched up a piece of dim sum: "When the matter is done, the cook at home will pick it up from Zhuangzi first." ”
Nian'er also nodded with a snack and swallowed: "Yes, the eldest lady can also eat the meals at home." ”
She was going to vomit when the cook cooked in Jiannan Province.
The master and servant whispered and laughed while eating, and suddenly Li Mingqi frowned: "There seem to be more soldiers and horses outside?" ”
Nian'er said vaguely: "It's not been peaceful recently, so there are more soldiers and horses to guard the miss." ”
Li Mingqi said that something was wrong, stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, and the voice behind the veil was surprised: "Where is this going?" Then he looked at a guard next to the car, "Who are you?" ”
The road outside is not to the barracks, and this guard is not her daily personal soldier.
The strange guard turned his head, and his unfamiliar face was solemn: "Miss, the last general has been ordered to send you back to Shannan Province to reunite with the governor." ”
Nian'er choked and opened her mouth to stare at her breathless, and Li Mingqi's voice exploded in her ears.
"Bold! Whose orders are you? ”
"We are on the orders of Miss Minghua."
