Chapter 42: Ripples of Calm

CHAPTER XLII

"Hurry up, hurry up. "The commanders of the battalions were shouting everywhere, looking for their men in the various tents.

The various camps began to be chaotic, fortunately, the north has been facing the threat of the north for many years, and the military discipline of the soldiers is a little loose, but the vigilance is not bad, and when they heard the call of the commander, the soldiers of each battalion quickly gathered in a chaotic manner.

In a camp, looking at the hurried gathering in front of them, pushing each other, many people are still dressing indiscriminately, some people are wearing leather armor, Cheng Buzhi doesn't know what to say, looking at other camps, they are quite fast.

Cheng Buzhi sighed in his heart: How can such an army fight with the northern captives, there is no military discipline, there is no military discipline, the ordnance is not complete, and the military salary is insufficient for drilling, and the military salary in peacetime will sometimes be cut off, and it will be deducted by the officials. So he needs a victory, a real victory, otherwise, he doesn't dare to think about it.

"Haha, Zhong Aiqing, this great victory in Yandang Mountain is inspiring, I suddenly look forward to this Li Desheng entering Beijing as soon as possible. Emperor Hongzhi changed his past seriousness in the court, and said happily to the hundred officials in the main hall.

Suddenly, Emperor Hongzhi saw Hongling's urgent envoy, "Report, the north is urgent." ”

"What's the urgency, come it quickly. Emperor Hongzhi said to the eunuch next to him, and the eunuch hurriedly went down to get the urgent report.

Emperor Hongzhi opened it and took a look: "Minister Li Desheng is incompetent, the previous time my department ambushed the northern captives, and the northern captives came to attack this time to retaliate, the ministers are not talented, they are crushed, and they swear to live and die with Tongguan, and the city is in the people." The minister has the grace of the saint, this time the minister and all the soldiers in the north have the heart of martyrdom, I hope that His Majesty can forgive the incompetence of the minister, take care of the family on behalf of the minister, and the minister will die without regrets. The governor of the north, Li Desheng, respectfully respected. ”

Baiguan looked at the emperor's face suddenly turned cold, and his eyes turned red, "Send a decree to summon the family of Li Desheng, the governor of the north, his wife will be promoted to a higher rank, and his son will be summoned to Zhongshu Province." Zhong Aiqing, look at Li Desheng's recital, this is a unique letter, he wants to sacrifice his life for the country, to trust me, it seems that the situation is really urgent, where is the commander of the infantry army?"

"The minister is here. ”

"From today, martial law has begun in the capital. ”

"Commandment. ”

"Hussar General, you will go to the south study with the generals in a moment to discuss with me how to deal with this matter!"

"Yes!"

"Father. Xiao Youzhi saw Emperor Hongzhi passing by the imperial garden, and shouted to him excitedly, in the past two days, Emperor Hongzhi was very interested in playing with Youzhi for two days, but today his face was full of gloom, "Youji, you go play by yourself, my father has something important." After saying that, he walked straight to the south study.

"Mr. Su, Commander Lu, this Yingzhou West Lake is really good, although it is not as vast as the sea, it has a sense of atmosphere, it is really stable. After speaking, Chen Hao took a deep breath, "Ha, let's go to the small island in the middle of the lake to have a look, this scenery is very interesting." ”

"Shizi now feels like he has something to look like in West Lake?" Mr. Su asked Chenhao slyly,

"Of course there is, it's much more fun than our sea. ”

"Of course, after all, this is a place that Ouyang Xiu has praised. He once wrote a poem in praise, does the son of the world know?"

"Isn't it just picking mulberries?

After the group of flowers, the West Lake is good, the mess is red, the flying flocculent is cloudy, and the weeping willow fence is dry and windy.

Shengge scattered all the people, began to feel the spring sky, hung down the curtains, and returned to the drizzle. ”

"There are ten mulberry pickers, and it's good that the son can know one. Mr. Su laughed.

Lu San rowed quietly, watching Mr. Su and the son talking and laughing, he thought that this time in Beijing would probably be the happiest time for the son.

A group of children sat barefoot by the river, their feet waving in the river.

"Little butterfly, you are so good-looking, why are we all playing in the water, you are better than us. Erhuozi said to a girl next to him with a big grin.

"Erhuozi, why are you so poor every day. ”

The girl yelled at Erhuozi.

"I'm telling the truth, why are I so poor?" Er Huozi scratched his head suspiciously.

"What a fool, Brother Xiao Qiu, why don't you speak?" the girl asked, tilting her head to look at Brother Xiao Qiu.

"Hey, look, Brother Xiaoqiu's face is so red. The bald man suddenly cried out in amazement, and the children were attracted by the bald man's cry.

"Poof" Xiaoqiu hurriedly turned her head and jumped into the water, "I'll catch a few fish, and we'll eat grilled fish later." ”

"Hee-hee, Brother Xiaoqiu, catch a few more, I like you" Xiaoqiu's face turned red, and his face and neck were red, "Hahaha, the fish you caught, Brother Xiaoqiu, you are so funny." The girl looked at Xiaoqiu's blushing face and thick neck, leaning forward and closing back, looking at Xiaoqiu and not daring to turn her head, the girl looked at Brother Xiaoqiu in a daze.
