Chapter 43: The Friendship of Gold and Stone
Gu Zhaohua's voice seemed to be bewitched, and the soldier was stunned, but he was impressed by the girl's composure and persistence, and his voice immediately softened.
"Lord Bai ordered this place to be sealed off early in the morning, if you still want to live, leave quickly."
The coachman was already frightened, Gu Zhaohua knew that the soldier was admonishing, but she still refused, and said in a glutinous voice: "Bother the official to run, the little girl is waiting here, if General Bai doesn't reward you, the little girl is willing to be punished." ”
Xu is Gu Zhaohua's firm attitude made the soldier change a little, and he sighed: "It's really a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers." It's not that he really wants a reward, but he knows from the words of the little girl that she is very determined.
By this time, the village had already been flattened by a fire, and from a makeshift tent, Bai Ren's angry shouts could be heard.
"What, it's been hollowed out a long time ago?"
At this time, a subordinate came down to report.
"General Yu, the order of Yuecheng County is Li Shiyong!"
"Li Shiyong?" Bai Ren felt familiar, and suddenly thought of something, and frowned: "Is it Mr. Li Shiyong, the middle waiter who went out of Jiangcheng back then?" ”
The soldier replied: "Exactly!" ”
"Stand down!" Bai Ren frowned, if this is the case, then this time the matter is really a bit tricky, because this Li Shiyong introduced himself back then, which can be regarded as a grace, if he confesses him to confess, it is a little unreasonable.
But if you don't offer it, you will be sad at this level!
This time, Bai Ren was ordered by the emperor to find out where the iron ore was located even if the entire mountain was moved, because of the current internal and external troubles in the Great Zhou, the soldiers must prepare the best weapons!
He had been in the destroyed village for three days, but as soon as he arrived, he found that many caves had been secretly excavated in the mountain, and there were shadows of iron ore being mined, indicating that they had arrived one step too late.
Who was ahead of him?
Bai Ren knew very well that if he returned empty-handed, he would inevitably anger the emperor, but after carefully searching for three days, he found that all that could be mined had been opened, and there was not even a single hair left for him.
These days have made his brain hurt, if he goes back like this, he can only report to Yuecheng County for inaction, he has not been able to find out such a big battle and movement, but he can also help himself take this responsibility.
But now, he found out that the Yuecheng County Order turned out to be his benefactor Li Shiyong, if he didn't confess it, then he would not be able to escape his responsibility, it was really a dilemma.
At this moment, a soldier trembled and reported: "General, general." ”
Bai Ren sat on the chair he found temporarily, rubbing his eyebrows, it really hurts his brain.
"Say!"
The majestic voice startled the soldier a lot, and he trembled in his heart and wondered if he had come at an inopportune time, and wondered if he would be punished if he said that there was a little girl in the carriage outside who wanted to see him?
"Say!" Bai Ren's patience was limited, and he shouted angrily like thunder.
The little soldier had no choice but to bite the bullet: "General, someone at the entrance of the village asked his subordinates to send this to the general, saying that the general would like it when he saw it." Shengsheng swallowed the words of rewarding him, and now he just wanted to escape from the general's eyes.
"What's that?" Bai Ren was a little curious, he had never been to this place, and there were people who knew his whereabouts?
The soldier hurriedly handed the things over.
Bai Ren held the envelope and felt that there was a letter in it, and what else was there?
Open it up and see that a black stone has fallen out?
Bai Ren was about to scold, but the soldier buried his head lower and regretted it.
The black stone was slightly heavy in his hand, Bai Ren took a closer look, and was immediately shocked, his face was even more stunned, and an elusive momentum rose all over his body.
Iron ore?
Someone actually sent him iron ore?
The soldier's heart was miserable, and now he only wanted to be able to leave the general's tent safely.
"Haha, hahaha!!"
The next moment, Bai Ren's laughter shook the sky!
turned to read the letter, and in an instant, he smiled, and his benefactor Li Shiyong introduced him to his son-in-law.
The soldier knelt on the ground and did not dare to move, knowing that General Bai Ren was moody and difficult to guess his thoughts.
"Who sent the letter?" Bai Ren asked with a hearty smile.
Only then did the soldier secretly breathe a sigh of relief and said, "General Huiyu, it was a coachman who came with a little girl. ”
"Little girl?" Bai Ren was stunned, would the benefactor send a little girl to come?
"Quick, please come in." This is simply Bai Ren's benefactor, he understands very well that since the other party dares to send him a small piece of iron ore, he either knows the whereabouts of the iron ore, or he has a spot in his hand.
Then he looked deeply at the little soldier: "What's your name?" ”
"Zhao Long laughed." The soldier was slightly apprehensive.
Bai Ren's face was full of appreciation: "Let's follow General Ben in the future." "This person is very good at seeing the situation and is worth cultivating.
When the guards heard this, they were surprised and delighted, and immediately knelt on the ground: "Yes, yes, thank you, general, thank you for the reward." "This is a sign of promotion, if you can get the general's support, the future is limitless.
Suddenly, the little soldier was infinitely grateful for the little girl who had encouraged him to come, and respectfully brought her in.
Gu Zhaohua knew that Bai Ren would be overjoyed when he saw iron ore!
I also know that the original iron ore in this small mountain village has already been mined by Jun Yushu's people.
When he came to the tent, Gu Zhaohua stood gracefully, raised his chin lightly, neither humble nor arrogant, and bowed in awe.
"The people's girl Gu Zhaohua sees General Bai." Speak without tension or fear.
Bai Ren squinted, the girl in front of him was dressed in a plain and elegant, wearing a goose yellow Luo skirt, and a cardigan with a lotus flower on the outside, she was cute and generous, and when she heard the other party's surname Gu, she suddenly understood something?
"Are you Mr. Li's granddaughter?"
"It's the little girl." From beginning to end, Gu Zhaohua was humble and polite, and he was generous.
Bai Ren was a little fond of the girl standing in front of him without changing her face, but he couldn't show that he was too excited after knowing the iron ore, and said in a deep voice with a majestic face.
"The letter is read by the general, and the girl dared to come to be a messenger at a young age, so what must have happened to the Li Mansion?" In fact, Bai Ren knew in his heart that it was not the Li Mansion that really needed his help, but the Gu Mansion!
Gu Zhaohua smiled lightly and raised his eyes to stare at Bai Ren: "General Bai, in fact, the stone in the envelope was not a gift from my grandfather. ”
Bai Ren didn't expect the girl to mention this, but he was a little interested: "That was given by your father?" ”
Gu Zhaohua still shook his head.
Without waiting for Bai Ren to ask, she continued: "Actually, I gave it away. ”
"Huh?" Bai Ren couldn't understand what this little girl wanted to say?
"General Bai, although I am young, I can understand things earlier, so I still know a thing or two." Gu Zhaohua explained.
Bai Ren looked at Gu Zhaohua as if he didn't understand: "What do you want me to do?" ”
After all, the world's great strange things and some ghosts do not exist, and it is even rumored that the former general Su went to the battlefield at the age of ten and killed countless enemies!
If the little girl in front of her has nothing extraordinary, how dare she come to find herself alone?
And she spoke and acted without the slightest hint of girlishness, Bai Ren looked at Gu Zhaohua a lot.
Gu Zhaohua looked at Bai Ren and said seriously: "I want to invite General Bai to my Gu Mansion as a guest" and paused: "I want to ask the general to marry my father and my father!" ”
