Chapter 45: Chen Dong's news, Yun Fei is here
Qingyan changed into men's clothes and looked at the sky outside the window, the weather in August was still the same hot, but today there were more clouds, and it was dull, she had a feeling that there would be a heavy rain soon.
"Miss Six, it's already arranged!"
Yi Han pushed the door in, looking at her who was ready, her heart was full of uneasiness, the last time she went out at night, she was discovered by the third lady, and this time she actually chose to leave the house from time to time, I really don't understand what can be changed by doing this.
"Let's go!"
Qingyan stood up, walked out of the Bishui Pavilion with Yi Han, who was also dressed as a man, and walked towards the main entrance.
Yi Xuan greeted him, smiled and stepped forward, and followed behind the two, all the people who passed by along the way, after seeing the male costume of the sixth lady in Fuzhong, they were shocked for a moment, and then retreated as if nothing happened.
Until he walked out of the house, he didn't see anyone stopping or asking, so he went out of the house smoothly. Yi Han turned his head incredulously and looked at Yi Xuan who was standing at the door, very curious about what Miss Six had done to go out like this.
Sanguan City
No one could have imagined that Warat would die a dramatic and tragic death with the loss of a general who had a great reputation in his territory. Therefore, after the news of his death spread, the Warat soldiers retreated like a tide, and stationed a kilometer outside the city, patrolling much more rigorously than before.
"I didn't expect you to have such skills, it seems that the official really underestimated you." Ji Mingchen glanced at him deeply and said with appreciation.
Liu Wei and Qiu Li behind him glanced at each other and did not speak, but the former looked at Chang Tianyou for a while, if he remembered correctly, he should be a soldier under his rule, he had only been in the army for a few months, and he had been asked to guard the city gate before, but he didn't expect that he was still young, but his kung fu was not small.
"It seems that the adults are more confident in the actions of their subordinates!" He didn't deny it, but added some of his hidden arrogance between his words.
"Haha——, seeing you so confident, this officer is indeed a lot more relieved, five hundred soldiers are transferred to you, and you will act as you said tonight."
Ji Mingchen was affected by his self-confidence, swept away the haze of wartime, waved his big hand, and said very cheerfully.
"What's the time? Your Excellency, you're not going to hand over the crucial battle to him, are you? Qiu Li frowned, he had served in Yulin Pass for nearly three years, and the war at this time was not a good thing, but it was a great opportunity for him to make meritorious contributions, how could he be robbed by a teenager now?
"So what can you do? Tell me about it! Liu Wei has always looked down on him, he looks like a gentleman on the surface, but the hypocrisy on the inside is unbearable, so even at this time, he himself does not approve of putting this important matter on a teenager, but he is not willing to let Qiu Li snatch it, who knows if he will do unplanned things for the sake of meritorious service?
"Originally, burning their grain and grass was the best way, but now they are also guarding against this, so this plan is not easy to succeed, and it is better to think in the long run."
"Isn't there just no way to do it? Since Tian You has a plan, he plans to go in person, which means that he is sure, but since you are not at ease, then I will follow! Anyway, I'm kind of a battle-hardened, how about it? Welcome? ”
"Nature is welcome! With Liu always here, the possibility of success is greater. ”
Chang Tianyou knew that he was not at ease with him, and he thought that he would block the operation, but he did not expect him to participate.
"Then let's settle it like that! This action is handled by Tian You, even you, Liu Wei, must not disobey orders. Ji Mingchen settled down directly, looked at the direction of Wara, and said solemnly.
"Yes!"
Qiu Li gritted his teeth, even if he was unwilling, he was helpless, and he had no confidence in this operation in his heart, just a teenager, no matter how good the bow and arrow were, things on the battlefield would always rely on military minds, not personal skills.
Qingzhou Mansion Chen Dong's home
Qingyan stepped out of the carriage with the help of Yi Han and walked in behind Liu Da.
There was a well in the northeast corner of the courtyard, and a woman bowed her head until a few people walked in.
The eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Chen Dong, but they are much older, and they don't need to be introduced, so they can be sure that it must be Chen's mother.
"Brother Liu, you're here, what is this?"
"This is the young master of the owner's family, and I came to see your family's east."
"Young Master? Come in quickly, Dongzi just went back to the house with the help of his sister, please inside. ”
Chen's mother was very peaceful, and when she heard about her identity, she didn't flatter her too much, but she just did her best as a landlord.
"It's hard work!" She smiled at her very kindly, but secretly said in her heart: With such an excellent mother, it is no wonder that Chen Dong's temperament is so good.
The furnishings in the house are very simple, old bookshelves and bookcases, a wooden bed, a round table, and a few stools are all here. At this time, Chen Dong was sitting in front of the bookcase, and his sister moved a stool to sit beside him, watching him write very seriously, and the two of them were very attentive.
"Chen Dong, the young master is here!" Liu Da spoke before Chen's mother.
"Little ......"
"Are you practicing calligraphy? Young Master Ben, take a look—"
Seeing his surprised look, Qingyan stepped forward and slammed back the words he was about to export, even if she came in men's clothes, she naturally didn't want to reveal her identity, even if the world no longer recognized the fact that women can study, it is impossible to admit that women can also work like her.
"Hmmm! This static word is well written! It's just that since I'm here today, I'm afraid you won't be able to calm down. ”
"Little—that's what the young master said." He looked at his mother and sister beside him with a little embarrassment, this was the first time he had lied.
"You talk! I'm going to make you a pot of tea, Apricot Blossom, come and help! Mother Chen looked at Qingyan curiously, did she come out to do things for the family at such a young age? It stands to reason that he should have fun at home, but looking at his appearance, he is a little mature beyond his age, and his son is doing things under him, which is not in vain for all these years of hard work.
"Go too!"
She found that Chen Dong's face was becoming more and more solemn, and she intuitively felt that things were not small, so she said a word to Yi Han and Liu Da. The two walked out of the room one after another, guarding on both sides of the door, and glanced at each other, both of them seeing helplessness in their eyes.
Miss is Miss after all, so if she is alone with a man for a lifetime, how can it be good if it is passed on? Thinking about the third lady's reputation now, even if the third master bought Zhao Da with silver money in time at that time, didn't it still spread? It's just that Zhao Da doesn't say it anymore.
"Uncle Liu, how did the third master negotiate with Zhao Da?" Yi Han thought of this, and suddenly remembered Miss Six's previous instructions, when Jasmine came and went, she didn't mention it.
"I don't know!" He shook his head and said helplessly, he really inquired about this matter, but he never got any information.
Only then did Han understand that it was not that Jasmine didn't say it, nor did she forget, but she didn't know it at all, so she probably planned to inquire again.
In the room, Qingyan was furious after listening to Chen Dong's story, if she was in the house, she would definitely drop the tea bowl in her hand.
"That's the way it is, it's better for Miss to prepare early."
"I see. Do you know what agreement was negotiated between my third uncle and Zhao Da? ”
"Some time ago, my subordinates came to report, saying that Zhao Da suddenly became rich overnight, lost a lot of money in Baibaofang, and heard that he was about to get married, hum! There are also people like this who marry, and God really has mercy. ”
Qingyan's heart moved, who is Zhao Da? Qingzhou is famous for his idleness, and almost no family is willing to marry their daughter to him; However, I heard that he married two wives before, but he died of illness after half a year of marriage, and no one wanted to marry him since then, and he was even more idle, doing nothing all day long, bullying the good and fearing evil, robbing the daughters of many poor families, and then selling people to Qinglou, which was the source of his daily expenses, this matter was originally the government could intervene, but later I heard that he was very close to the steward of Zhao Zhizhou's family, and gradually all the complaints against him were suppressed.
"The Yulin Guan War Imperial Court will definitely send troops to the battle, have you heard who led the troops?"
"This morning, my subordinates came to tell me, saying that they saw a rich man with a few fierce people to inquire about the direction of Jinling Temple outside the city, and soon after I heard the merchants who came to and from the capital said that the prince was about to lead the troops to Yulin Pass, but the prince came a little late, Yulin Pass has been broken, and the soldiers guarding the pass have retreated to Sanguan City, but I am afraid that they will not survive tonight."
"You're well-informed!"
She raised her eyebrows, Ling Shan hadn't reported back the battle in Yulin, but he knew it in such detail while sitting at home; As for the prince's expedition, although she was surprised, she was also expected, a prince with no military merits, it is absolutely not enough to ascend to the royal throne, and this time is a great opportunity.
It's just that if it really can't survive tonight, the war will be further expanded, and I don't know if it will burn to Qingzhou.
"It's inspired by you, the outcasts, and how many beggars don't have it in any city? Give them some food, and they will naturally do things for me, and now that the border is in the war, and the people who come to surrender are more, it will naturally be much easier to inquire. ”
He looked at her expression very carefully, this seven-year-old girl, but just reached his waist, but he couldn't see through, he could imagine how deep her city was.
"You'll draw inferences, but that's good. By the way, I have found a miracle doctor, and I think I will be here in two days, and he will treat your leg with you, and with him, you will definitely be cured. ”
"I didn't expect to get up again one day." Hearing this, he seemed calm, but the trembling eyelashes still showed his inner unrest and anticipation.
"When he comes, and your leg is healed, I'll open a medical clinic as a place to stay outside the house, and then you can ask your mother to help, and your sister—there should be a better place to go."
Chen Dong was taken aback, it is understandable that his mother went to help, but where is the so-called better place for his sister? It wouldn't be that you wanted her to enter the Qingfu, right? Isn't that just slavery?
Knock Knock –
"I don't know who you're looking for?" Chen's mother's voice came in surprise from the knock on the door.
"Hello, auntie, is this Chen Dong's home?" A familiar voice came into his ears, and Qingyan smiled in the room.
"Doctor Yun? How did you get here? Yi Han walked up quickly, and immediately surprised when he saw someone coming.
"Naturally—"
"Naturally, it was arranged by Young Master Ben."
Qingyan walked out of the room, followed by Liu Da and Chen Dong, standing at the door looking at him and smiling.
