Dingguo Gong had the intention to use this matter to hit General Xiao Shou and General Xiao hard, and General Xiao was also deliberately trying to find a way to bite back on Dingguo Gong. Both phases have the intention of competing, and those who originally wanted to calm things down will not do anything if they have the heart.

The original polemic and power battle in the court came to an end because the emperor flicked his sleeves and left, but the private battle became increasingly fierce, whether it was the words and swords in the court, or the mutual disagreement in the market under the court, the whole capital was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

The battle between the two generals of Dingguo Gong and General Xiao has led to more than just a disagreement between the generals. Although the civil officials and the military generals do not look at each other, there are always some in-laws who are old and old and tied to each other, and when they encounter this matter, people who have a lot of thoughts begin to look for opportunities to join one of the camps, hoping to gain some benefits in the battle between the two generals.

Dingguo Gong held the handle of General Xiao in his hand, and in one day's work, he checked the black-clothed man who intercepted and killed Cui'er, and all the evidence pointed to General Xiao's beloved son, who was also his right-hand man, General Xiao.

If this evidence is true, it is a murder of a slave, and the killing is the family of the soldiers who went on the expedition. The most important foundation of the dynasty, even if the emperor wants to be partial, this sin is extremely heavy, so heavy that even if General Xiao is not assigned to the frontier, he has to be demoted three levels in a row to get rid of the title of general.

How could General Xiao let his son fold like this? General Xiao naturally refused to admit the evidence that Dingguo Gong came up with, not only refused to admit it, but also found a lot of evidence to prove that General Wude of Dingguo Gong used his power for personal gain when he was in the northwest. Revenge on everyone in the Xiao family.

After the quarrel in the court, the people of both factions felt that the fire in their hearts had not been released, and when they met on the street, they would inevitably continue to quarrel.

Whether it is a civilian official or a military general, the quarrel and the emotions are a little out of control, and they have developed from quarrels to full martial arts. Just ten days of effort. In the capital, there were several incidents of street brawls one after another. And the parties are all official or the children and grandchildren of officials, and the impact is extremely bad.

If these things are just these things, Cui'er, as a female dependent, is not worried. After all, my family doesn't quarrel with others when they go out on weekdays, and they don't mess with others. Even if Lian Qingshan met these vexatious people, with his martial arts, there were really few people in the entire capital who could find him rare.

What worries Cui'er is. Originally, the officials of the Dingguo Gong faction who were in charge of the dispatch of military rations in the northwest were the first to be cannon fodder in this officialdom. The new officials appear to be neutral. But when Lian Qingshan was busy with the transfer of food and salaries from the northwest, the new official either shirked his responsibilities or did not act, and Lian Qingshan was anxious.

In the northwest border, General Wude and the Tartars are working hard every day. When you don't eat for a day at home, you still feel hungry and panicked, and if you don't eat for a day on the battlefield, your hands and feet will be weak when you are hungry. If you don't eat for three or five days, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy. I'm going to starve to death first!

Lian Qingshan was anxious, shuttling between the Yamen of the Ministry of War, the Dingguo Mansion and his own house every day, because this matter was too important, Lian Qingshan often returned home in the middle of the night, and went out in a hurry before dawn the next day.

Rao is Cui'er's heart is wide, and there is no way not to be anxious when she sees that even Qingshan is like this.

But even Qingshan is anxious, Cui'er is anxious, the newly appointed official of the household department is not in a hurry, even Qingshan is urging, he said impatiently that he has just taken over, he is not clear about anything, he can't make decisions easily, etc., and the attitude of inaction is very obvious.

"I originally thought that when I fought with the Tartars at the border pass, I would be aggrieved enough when I couldn't win, but I didn't expect that the most aggrieved thing was not that I couldn't win a war with others, but that I was defeated in the hands of my own people!" One night, Lian Qingshan ate a closed-door soup at the household official, and couldn't help but drink a whole jar of wine, and said such a thing in a daze after drinking.

"Qingshan......" Cui'er looked at Lian Qingshan frowning tightly, looking in pain, and her heart was also uncomfortable.

Cui'er had the heart to help Lian Qingshan do something, but she didn't dare to act rashly. Cui'er knows that this officialdom battle is not as simple as a shopping mall, the battle in the shopping mall is at most a scattering of family wealth, and the officialdom's deception is more of an unfathomable trap, and if you are not careful, you will be crushed and you will never recover.

Cui'er sat quietly on the kang, looking at Lian Qingshan's face that had become red because of drinking, and the days of fighting abroad for most of the year made Lian Qingshan's face more resolute. The fatigue and hard work of the past few days made Lian Qingshan's face with a faint tiredness, and there was a blue and black shadow under his eyes.

Cui'er stretched out her hand and gently stroked Lian Qingshan's frowning brows, looking at Lian Qingshan's half-asleep and half-awake vaguely muttering about the military rations, Cui'er only felt that her heart was tightly pinched, and her breathing hurt and hurt.

The three armies have not moved the grain and grass first, and if the grain and wages cannot keep up, how can we talk about fighting a war or winning a war. With resentment in her heart, Cui'er asked Yahuan to bring warm water in, personally helped Lian Qingshan clean his face and wide clothes, helped him wipe his hands and feet, and looked at him frowning tightly when he lay on the kang and fell asleep, Cui'er knew that she should also make a modest contribution.

Cui'er knew in her heart that even Qingshan's food and salary matter was struggling, not only because of the difficulties of the Xiao faction, but mainly because Dingguo Gong's side let Lian Qingshan's performance go, and did not really interfere in this matter of food and salary allocation.

However, if Dingguo Gong does not interfere at this time, it does not mean that he will always not interfere, after all, the people who fought in the northwest are General Wude, the grandson of Dingguo Gong's relatives, and the general who can be counted in Dingguo Gongfu. Cui'er knew that Dingguo Gong was waiting for the opportunity, but she also knew that if the opportunity came too late, it would definitely delay the military situation in the northwest, and it would definitely be her own Qingshan who would suffer at that time.

How can this matter be solved smoothly? When Cui'er ordered someone to make a sobering soup, she sat on the side of the kang and pondered quietly, Cui'er didn't know much about this officialdom, and it might be self-defeating to act rashly, but it was not something Cui'er could bear to stand by......

Thinking so, Cui'er thought of the key to this matter, and the key point of this matter was not in the Xiao faction. I can't influence those people in the Xiao faction, and if I want to do this, I can only rely on Dingguo Gong.

Dingguo Gong is an iron-blooded general, and he must be a person who can calm down when these two factions fight, but if he can calm down, it doesn't mean that others can, for example, the Duchess of Dingguo. If you can blow the wind from the back house. There may be a turnaround.

Although Cui'er was a little embarrassed about her desire to use the Duchess of Dingguo to persuade the Duke of Dingguo. But when it comes to the future of Lian Qingshan, as well as the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the northwest, Cui'er only sat on the kang for an hour. I have already made up my mind.

In fact, what Cui'er can do and what she has to do is very simple, that is, to arouse the Duchess of Dingguo, the longing for General Wude who fought at the border pass. The Duchess of Dingguo misses General Wude. will inevitably worry about the military situation in the northwest, as long as the pillow wind blows in front of Dingguo Gong a little. Xu Yes will be able to solve the rare matter of even Qingshan here.

Cui'er made up her mind, and began to think about how to arouse the feelings of the Duchess of Dingguo to miss her grandson.

The night was deep, Lian Qingshan was lying on the kang snoring, and Cui'er was sitting beside him. Holding the needle and thread in his hand, as well as the remaining material of the silk given by the emperor, he sewed something quickly.

Early the next morning. After Lian Qingshan got up, he shook his head, which was a little sore because of the hangover, and washed it simply. After eating the steaming noodle soup made by Cui'er herself, I felt as if I had come to life. Holding Cui'er gently in his arms and being silent for a long time, Lian Qingshan strode outside.

Cui'er looked at Lian Qingshan's broad back, and her desire to help him became more and more determined, she picked up the knee pads, five-finger gloves and other things that she had made last night, stuffed them into a wrapper, changed her clothes, took the gloves and went to the Dingguo Mansion.

Cui'er is the goddaughter of the prince and Mrs. Shizi of the Dingguo Mansion, although she is not the owner of the Dingguo Mansion, she is also half a young lady. Her carriage arrived at the gate of the Dingguo Mansion, and she only needed to make a sound to enter the mansion.

After Cui'er arrived at the Dingguo Mansion, she first asked Mrs. Shizi to say goodbye, and happened to meet Mrs. Wenxiu, who came to ask for peace, as well as Da Niu and Xiaohu.

"Godmother, this looks like it's about to enter winter, I think you don't like to go out in winter in the past, because you are afraid of the cold, so I thought about making two small things, if you wear them in winter, maybe you can withstand the cold." Cui'er took out the knee pads and gloves she had made overnight and handed them to Mrs. Shizi.

"This is a knee pad made by my own hands, and it is filled with fox fur that Aoyama hunted with his own hands. In winter, no matter how thick the cotton pants and cotton skirt are, when you go out, you always feel that your knees are cold, and you can put this knee pad on your pants to block the wind. Cui'er talked carefully about the role of the knee pads and gloves, and asked Mrs. Shizi to try them on herself, looking at the right size, the place where she put on the knee pads was still hot, and Mrs. Dingguo Gongzi liked it very much.

"These knee pads or something, it's also convenient to wear, whether it's our women at home or soldiers who go out to fight, if you can have such a small thing on your body, you won't be numb from freezing when it's snowing." Cui'er inadvertently mentioned the soldiers who were fighting outside, and saw that Mrs. Shizi's face changed slightly, knowing that she was thinking of her son who was fighting outside.

"This thing is really good, Cui'er, you kid has filial piety, I'm very happy!" Mrs. Shizi said so, with a slight surprise in her tone.

Mrs. Shizi turned her head to Yueshu and Yuehua and said, "You two have also learned to be a female red for a long time, take advantage of this time to learn from Cui'er, and make two sets of knee pads for your father to wear before winter." We, the generals of the old Yang family, have done a lot of things to climb the ice and lie in the snow, and when we were young, we didn't feel anything, and when we got old, we knew that it was uncomfortable. ”

When Mrs. Shizi said this, Cui'er knew that she was halfway there. If you want to say who is most worried about General Wude in this world, it is none other than his own mother, Mrs. Shizi, once Mrs. Shizi decides to act, even if Dingguo Gong will not intervene in the food and salary affairs in the northwest, Dingguo Gongshi will also take action.

As long as someone makes a move, the matter of food and salary in the northwest will not be a big deal. Thinking of this, Cui'er's heart relaxed slightly, and she greeted Mrs. Shizi with a smile. (To be continued)
