Chapter 226: Ask the bride for help
It is said that the Wei family married the prince, and Wei Ang not only lost his identity, but also improved his career.
Although he is a military attachΓ©, he has not been able to reuse it because of his lack of ability, but this time, after the Wei family climbed to the crown prince, he quickly received an important task.
It is said that the emperor was going to arrange someone to escort supplies to the front line, and Shan Ziyin recommended Wei Ang, who was going to be his brother-in-law, at that time. Although the baggage battalion is responsible for logistics materials, food, grass, ordnance and other materials are the backing of the front-line soldiers, and they are very important. Because Wei Ang had no merits, there was no such person in the emperor's impression, and he was a little hesitant at that time. It is said that Shan Ziyin later moved the emperor by saying something, which probably means that his abilities are all experienced. So the emperor agreed.
It seems that the list is hidden in the case of not being able to attract talents, but is preparing to cultivate talents by himself.
Wei Ang probably felt that this time the emperor personally appointed himself as the commander of this baggage battalion, and he was valued by the emperor. So it's a little fluttery, so I don't even know who I am.
Yun Qixi saw that Shan Ziyin was hidden in the banquet and watched Wei Ang's every move, and frowned frequently. I don't know if I regret making this move.
And although Yun Qixi couldn't get used to Wei Ang, after learning about it, his eyes lit up and he had a good idea.
While everyone was pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Yun Qixi quietly withdrew from the seat under the pretext of going to the thatched house.
She has been to the Prince's Mansion twice, and she still knows the general direction, but she doesn't know which courtyard the new house is in.
Everyone went to join in the fun, so the front yard was very lively, and the back yard was very deserted.
Because there was no one, Yun Qixi walked in the backyard generously, bypassing the courtyards, looking while walking, and soon saw a room with lights on, and the windows and doors were covered with big red happy words. The whole room was filled with a reddish, festive light.
She also glanced at the courtyard where she had met Yun Lanyue just now, although she was also holding a lamp, but in comparison, it was particularly deserted.
This is really only seeing the newcomer laughing, and the old man crying!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of herself. If one day, Shan Liancheng wants to take a concubine into the house, she will either abolish him or leave him, in short, she will not be so wronged and seek perfection, and boil herself into a resentful woman in the boudoir.
Thinking about it, she had already walked lightly to the door of the new house.
After looking left and right, and after making sure that no one was there, she gently pushed open the door of the new house and walked in.
The new house is particularly festively decorated, the eyes are full of red, the red tablecloth, the red brocade quilt tent, and the red candle is to illuminate the whole new house.
The most eye-catching thing is the bride who is dressed in a red wedding dress and sits quietly on the edge of the bed with a red hijab.
Yun Qixi approached step by step, and the steps were neither light nor heavy. The woman under the hijab clenched the hem of her big red dress tightly with both hands, obviously getting more and more nervous.
Seeing a wedding scale tied with red silk in the tray on the table, Yun Qixi suddenly got playful, picked up the wedding scale, and approached the bride step by step.
Standing on the edge of the bed, she leisurely tapped her palms with a wedding scale, and looked at the bride with a smile on her head. If she was wearing men's clothes at the moment, she would definitely look like a suave gentleman.
Slowly stretched the joy under the hijab, the bride under the hijab suddenly trembled slightly with nervousness, and the curvature of Yun Qixi's lips increased, and at the same time, she picked up Xipa little by little. A beautifully painted face was revealed.
Wei Yonglan lowered her head shyly at the moment, and her cheeks, which were already lightly rouge, were even more intoxicating because of the floating red glow.
The most is the gentleness of the bowed head, like a water lotus flower that is not shy.
"Beautiful!" Yun Qixi sincerely praised.
The bride was startled, raised her head suddenly, and was suddenly frightened, jumped up from the bed, and tore off the hijab on her head.
"How are you?"
Coughing lightly, Yun Qixi smiled, "Miss Wei doesn't have to be nervous, aren't we friends?" I'm here to congratulate you, congratulations on finally getting your wish. β
Wei Yonglan stared at her in shock, "I thought it would be the prince who came in, knowing what was going to happen on the night of the flower furnace in the cave room, her heart was pounding, she was shy, nervous and expectant, but she didn't want to lift her head, but she was greeted by such a fright."
"Princess Jin, you, are you going too far?"
couldn't help the grievances in her heart, and there was a mist in her big eyes.
Yun Qixi stared at her in surprise, with an apologetic face, "Don't, I'll just make a joke, don't shed tears, let me tell you, if you spend this makeup, it won't look good, don't you let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince see your most beautiful side?" β
Wei Yonglan should have heard this, but she raised her head and put back the tears, and then looked at Yun Qixi with an unhappy face.
"Princess Jin, what's the matter with me?"
The corners of Yun Qixi's lips curled, "Miss Wei is really a smart person, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a good eye!" β
Wei Yonglan turned her face away, obviously not wanting to listen to this flattering and polite opening remarks.
Yun Qixi smiled slowly, "Think about it carefully, Miss Wei and I used to be people in the same boat, and I also helped Miss Wei before, right?" β
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Wei Yonglan was impatient.
Yun Qixi walked a few steps unhurriedly, grabbing the corner of the red tablecloth.
"Actually, I just want Miss Wei to do me a small favor."
"Say."
Wei Yonglan obviously wants a quick solution, and she doesn't want her to be entangled here all the time.
"Miss Wei married into the Prince's Mansion today, and the Wei family can be regarded as a glorious lintel, I heard that Miss Wei's brother has also been valued, and in a few days he will lead the baggage battalion to escort supplies to the front line, I want Miss Wei to take two military orders from your brother."
"What are you going to do?" A trace of vigilance suddenly rose in Wei Yonglan's eyes.
Yun Qixi glanced at her and smiled, "Miss Wei doesn't have to be nervous, what do you say I can do as a woman?" It's nothing more than a guy from my Qixi number, there are two brothers in the family, who are in the prime of life, and they want to join the compilation to eat. β
"That's it?" Wei Yonglan asked questioningly.
Yun Qixi shrugged, "It's just like this, what else can I do?" β
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is in charge of military power, isn't it very easy for you to talk to His Royal Highness the King of Jin about this kind of trivial matter?"
Yun Qixi sighed lightly, "Yes, it was originally an easy thing to do, but my guy's two brothers have only come to the capital from the countryside in the past two days, and this Jin army has been on the march for several days, so they haven't caught up." So I had to come and beg Miss Wei to sell me a favor. β
Wei Yonglan pondered for a while, as if she was studying the truth of her words, and there was a hint of irritability between her eyebrows, and she said, "How can I, a woman, interfere in the affairs of the army?" If I ask for it, my brother won't necessarily give it. β
Yun Qixi smiled and shook his head, expressing disapproval.
"Miss Wei is now married to the crown prince, with your ingenuity, the future is limitless, I believe that Brother Wei will definitely give you this face."
"Okay, I'll try."
Seeing that her answer was a little perfunctory, knowing that she was in a hurry to send herself away, Yun Qixi sat down unhurriedly.
"Miss Wei married the prince today as she wished, and the 1,000 taels of silver are worth spent, right? Taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, I have never forgotten Miss Wei's entrustment, and I ask Miss Wei to be sure to take my affairs to heart. β
Wei Yonglan's heart was secretly shocked, and she understood that Yun Qixi was semi-threatening her.
Although Yun Lanyue is now disfigured, she is still the crown princess, if she let Shan Ziyin know that she had spent money to ask her not to heal the princess's face, and she also wanted to spend money to let her not save Yun Lanyue's life on the day Yun Lanyue fell into the water, what would the prince think of her? Regardless of whether the prince still has clouds and moons in his heart, she can't let the prince think that she is a vicious woman.
Of course, how could Wei Yonglan know that in fact, Shan Ziyin didn't want her to heal Yun Lanyue's face.
Yun Qixi played with a pair of wine glasses on the table with a leisurely expression, a half-smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked like he wouldn't leave until he could wait for an affirmative answer.
Wei Yonglan gritted her teeth, "Okay, tomorrow I will ask my brother to ask for it, you will wait for me on the Qixi Festival." β
Yun Qixi snapped his fingers beautifully, stood up, and looked at her with satisfaction.
"Okay, that's it, I'm waiting for Miss Wei's good news."
After saying that, she turned around and left happily.
When she turned to close the door, she smiled brightly at Wei Yonglan's angry face.
Now is a troubled time, all kinds of robbers and bandits will also take the opportunity to cause chaos, and it is really not safe to go on the road alone. It's not that she's afraid of those robbers and bandits, but because she wants to reach the front line as quickly as possible, and when she sees Shan Liancheng, she doesn't want to toss around on the road. As long as she can get the military order, she can blend into the baggage camp and reach her destination under the protection of the army all the way.
But Shan Baozhu was a little timid about sneaking into the barracks.
Yun Qixi encouraged her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here for everything." β
The next day, she went to the Tanabata early to wait.
It can be uncomfortable to wait for someone, especially if you are in a more anxious mood. So she took advantage of the fact that no one had come, and packed the things that Cuicui had prepared for her.
At first, I thought that I was on the road alone, so I had to prepare as many things as possible, but now I want to mix into the barracks, so naturally I can't bring too many big bags and small bags, dry food or something is free, and all the silver must be exchanged for silver tickets, at most I will leave some broken silver, and then bring her small tools, some necessary medicines, plus things from the nightless side, it is a big bag.
After doing all this, she stood on the deck outside the Qixi and looked at the misty Nanyang River.
At this moment, she began to imagine a lot of things, what would be his expression when he first saw her? What will be said? Will she be dealt with martialized in a fit of anger?
What is he doing at the moment? Do you think of her once in a while?
On October 20, the 21st year of Tianbao, the Jin army arrived in Yizhou on the border of Dayan and was stationed at the foot of Yinxia Mountain.
Yinxia Mountain is different from the general mountain range, the topography is peculiar, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has always been a place where soldiers must fight. The Jin army occupied the geographical location of Yinxia Mountain first, which was equivalent to jamming the enemy's throat. The enemy will not dare to act rashly again.
The Jin army marched for several days and would rest in Yinxia Mountain, waiting for the opportunity to attack in one fell swoop and regain the lost territory on the border.
In the Jin army camp at the foot of Yinxia Mountain, Shan Liancheng looked at the sand table in front of him with a serious expression, and planted a small flag with the word Jin on the sand table where Yinxia Mountain was located.
The major generals around the sand table stood in a circle, quietly waiting for instructions.
"Report!" There was a shout outside the tent, and then a soldier hurried inside, knelt down on one knee, and held up the secret letter in his hand.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, a secret letter came from the capital."
