Chapter 113: Back to my parents' house

In addition to gold, silver and precious stones, some missions also brought some cattle and sheep, especially the northern Xiongnu, who sent a thousand sheep at a time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the soldiers' compound is relatively vast, the three thousand soldiers, plus the general of the chariot and cavalry gave 1,800 horses a few months ago, and the missions of various countries have been given and sent again and again, Zheng Qian has sold 3,000 horses from the Western Regions on the market, plus the 2,000 horses of the Roman mission this time, a total of 12,500 horses. Zheng Qian's plan is to raise cavalry all of them, after all, wearing more than 30 catties of armor on an expedition will be tired and half dead.

A soldier should have at least two horses to change horses, especially such heavy cavalry.

However, if the compound is reasonably designed, although it can accommodate tens of thousands of people, some people reported to him that raising horses pollutes the air, and Zheng Qian also feels that without a good racetrack, these horses will not be trained, and the muscles trained on the battlefield will deteriorate after a year or two.

It is necessary to build a large racecourse, but it is really impossible to find such a large vacant land for the establishment, and you can't put the horses outside the city to raise them, and you have to go outside the city to ride horses in a war, and you can't catch up with the heat if you don't eat cucumber vegetables, and then you can see that the enemy is riding your own horses.

The largest in the city is his own three-company courtyard, followed by Wei Yuan's military area and the two-company courtyard of the mansion, and finally the mansion of the old prince.

It seems that it is necessary to make a move on Wei Yuan a few years ago, abolish him, and raise horses and farm in his yard when the time comes.

It was dark at six o'clock, and a little maid in the backyard had her sixteenth birthday, because they were basically orphans, so a group of little girls, including Hua Mulan and Zhu Yingtai, celebrated for her, and Zheng Qian made a round cake for her and put candles on it. Because some people have done this before the first few lives, they have gradually gotten used to it, and the first time they thought that there was some kind of ritual to put candles on the cake. Zheng Qian gave a jade bracelet as a birthday gift, this kind of thing Zheng Qian has young and old.

After drinking a few bottles of fruit wine, these little girls began to use the strength of the wine to fool around, a group of little girls said that Zheng Qian had seen them, they hadn't seen Zheng Qian, so they surrounded Zheng Qian's clothes, and the general lady who was a little serious would generally teach this group of little girls a lesson with a straight face, but her own Mulan was enough to make trouble when she drank too much, and she directly hugged Zheng Qian and shouted for them to come, which was simply a god assist.

Zheng Qian saw the opportunity, and ran out with his armor thrown off his armor......

I'm afraid this is the most unruly servant girl in the world, and I'm afraid it's the only group of servant girls in this world who are like the old man's clothes.

Zheng Qian sighed, this day is simply too difficult for Nima!

Zheng Qian went to bed at night, Hua Mulan and Zhu Yingtai brushed their teeth and took a bath when they came back, and they used to wash their faces with vinegar and egg whites, anyway, it is not a waste to have a small face, but Zheng Qian saw that the two girls were actually bathing with milk this time, which was a waste of not wanting.

"I said you two, you don't sleep when you take a bath with milk, do you understand how to drink milk?"

"Then you're going to drink!"

"Drink a fart, you won't go to the house to uncover the tiles if you don't fight for three days!"

Hua Mulan spit out her little tongue, she and Zheng Qian have been together for two years, and they can be regarded as old husbands and wives, and sometimes two people who are not enlightened can also say a few jokes. Maybe they have always been like a pair of lovers, you and me, I said I miss you, you miss me, more is the care and love of the small and long-term stream, maybe their explosion has long been consumed in the embrace of tens of thousands of people, Mulan is speechless to explain: "This is the pastry factory filtered to change the flavor and there are many impurities in it, don't you not let the bad ingredients be used, so they either feed the livestock or throw it away, I am not a waste, I am thrifty!" ”

"Then you wash quietly!"

Zheng Qian was awakened by a low sobbing sound in the middle of the night, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Zhu Yingtai in his arms was wiping his tears, Zhu Yingtai was relatively weak, and it was like a fragile jade cup in Zheng Qian's heart, Zheng Qian had been careful about her for fear of breaking her, and it was also heartbreaking to see her crying Zheng Qian.

When I asked, I knew that Zhu Yingtai gave the little maid a birthday, and I remembered the appearance of my parents celebrating my birthday in the past, and every day of my birthday, the family would make a table of good dishes and wait for my father to close in advance.

For a few months, she didn't mention going to see her parents for fear that Zhu Yingtai would be exposed, and then she was negligent, and Zhu Yingtai was afraid of causing trouble for herself and endured it.

Zheng Qian also sighed, remembering that when he went to pick up Zhu Yingtai's parents to come to the Hou Mansion, Zhu Yingtai's mother pointed at herself while crying, and scolded herself for being a flower picker who specialized in picking flowers, ruining their daughter's innocence, and forcing their daughter to be a concubine by virtue of her power. Zheng Qian was immediately blindfolded when he heard it, and in his kindness to save people and in danger, his mouth was numb for wishing Yingtai's relatives, and there was no merit and hard work!

I really don't know how Zhu Yingtai's eldest sister said it to her family when she went back!

Zhu Yingtai's father didn't scold Zheng Qian, he was relatively simple and rude, and he wanted to beat him directly with a broom, Zheng Qian had no choice but to run around the table and keep hiding, and he kept going around several times, Zheng Qian couldn't explain that the medicine was given to him by his wife, so his wife didn't have to be a man, and sure enough, his father-in-law was a terrible animal and fauna.

Why do you always pick flowers丨 thieves?

Zhu Yingtai's parents were unwilling to live in the Hou Mansion, and they were even more reluctant to let Zheng Qian help, so Zheng Qian spent twenty copper plates to hire Zhu Yingtai's second uncle, and after his second uncle's introduction, it was said that there was a small village on the edge of Tianzhongcheng in the big city, and there was a relatively hidden empty house for a distant relative.

In fact, that was Zheng Qian's village, and the vacant room was also prepared by Zheng Qian for Zhu Yingtai's family.

It was snowing heavily in the middle of the night, and a carriage was struggling to move through the snow, and the groom was struggling to pull the horse, which was reluctant to take a step forward.

In front of Zheng Qian, Chen Tao, the royal errand king, was carrying a large bag and a small bag, shaking in the cold wind and the university, and his body was shivering from the cold.

Zheng Qian stepped on the snow up to his calves to open the way in front, and behind him was Zhu Yingtai, who was covered with a fur blanket. Originally, there was still a pimple in his heart, but Zheng Qian got up and went out with himself without saying a word after hearing it, and even ignored the cold wind and snow in the night, which made Zhu Yingtai's heart flow another warm current.

Being his little concubine is also the happiest thing......

Zhu Yingtai wrapped his arms around Zheng Qian's neck while grabbing the two corners of the fur blanket and wrapping Zheng Qian in it as much as possible, "Actually, when the weather is good in a few days, we can come back during the day, and I know that my husband will be embarrassed to see my parents, as long as I can see them from a distance, I will be content." ”

"It's all here, and I think you won't even be able to sleep if you don't see it......"

"If only I had cried quieter if I had known."

"Yingtai, see your parents later, don't be disobedient and mess things up again like you did last time on the boat!"

Zhu Yingtai was also very guilty when he heard it, just because of his own words, he didn't say anything, and he let his parents run around, and he made his husband work hard, Zhu Yingtai made a promise: "I know, I must listen to you for everything, and I will do whatever you ask me to do......"

"It's not that serious......

Zheng Qian came to his village for the first time, and heard that his village was a large village that was close to the lake and three villages were combined into one, and many of the people in the village were relatively sparse because of the wandering bandits, the plundering of the imperial court, the famine and starvation, and a large number of people who served in the military were relatively sparse, and there were only more than 1,800 people left, including children.

The village is also relatively dilapidated, many of the houses are dilapidated, and some uncared yards are overgrown with weeds, and even the roofs are reborn with weeds.

How can your own village be so barren and get rich, regardless of the black and white cats letting some cats catch the rats first.

When I entered the village, I found that the lights were bright, and at the entrance of the village, twenty or thirty bandits wearing sheepskin jackets with iron axes, swords and other weapons were confronting the villagers, and the bandits were holding swords, sticks and sticks, and the villagers were holding shovels and pickaxes, and many people came out with pots and pans.

Although there are only a few dozen bandits and more than 200 villagers, many are old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are even women with children in their arms. Naturally, there were no fierce bandits in the fighting, and the first few young men were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, and they were cut with multiple wounds.

An eldest lady stopped the three people in front of Zheng, and looked at the three of them Although they were wearing cloth clothes, they were clean and tidy, and they didn't look like they were working in the field, and Chen Tao was still carrying a big bag and a small bag, thinking that a businessman who had no official or lord could not wear silk no matter how rich he was, he immediately concluded that the three of them were businessmen who stayed in the hotel, and the eldest lady pushed Zheng Qian for fear that the three of them would be involved: "Young man, take your friends and go quickly, don't wait for the bandits to enter the village, you won't be able to leave!" ”

"What's going on?"

"What else, it's just that this group of people is coming to loot property again, don't let your things be robbed by then, don't say anything, and hurt you again!" The aunt pointed to Tianzhongcheng, who was still brightly lit by the lake not far away, which was known as the city that never sleeps: "If you see the group of lights by the lake under the mountain, that is Tianzhong City, you can go there if you want to rest!" ”

An old man who led everyone to the same status as the village chief also immediately rushed over: "You three, hide in the rice tank for a while, and then go back down the mountain at this time and let these bandits in the mountains see, this little girl is so handsome, we have never seen one in ten miles and eight villages, if the bandits see it, this life will be ruined!" ”

"I can help you drive away the bandits together!"

"What do you help, you can't stand this little physique all of a sudden, don't ruin your life for the sake of face!"

The eldest lady dragged Zheng to the cylinder and pressed it, Zheng Qian's eloquence was not good, first, she didn't know how to explain it for a while, Zhu Yingtai was also very nervous when she saw the bandits, but she was not afraid, because she knew that Zheng Qian would definitely protect her, and in her memory, Zheng Qian's fight was very powerful. Chen Tao put the box on the snow, and in the box were some cakes and cocktails, as well as some cloth clothes, which Zheng Qian brought to his father-in-law.

Chen Tao grabbed the excited lady: "Auntie, don't worry, these people are not in our master's eyes, and they are not enough for our master to practice!" ”

Chen Tao said very loudly, and the villagers and bandits who were facing each other at the other end of the village also found three people, although they couldn't see the true faces of the three people clearly, but under the trance of the lantern, Zhu Yingtai's whitening skin was shiny, and the delicate face that could not be concealed was also looming.

When the villagers saw this kind of big beauty, they all looked like they were slapping the chicken, and they must behave in front of the fairy.

The bandits immediately wanted to dedicate themselves to the big boss as the lady of the village, four or five bandits pushed to the periphery and several young people squeezed in, and a bandit who looked like a small head walked straight to Zhu Yingtai, one of the three in front of Zheng, and looked at the three of them with a hideous face: "What, do you three want to hide in the tank, you think very well, but I was still discovered by a wise and martial man, the woman stays, the box stays, and the man can get out of me!" ”

"Brother Gang, this woman is so beautiful, I've never seen such a beautiful woman, or don't give it to the big boss, let's stay like a feast!"

"This is not appropriate, if we let the big boss know that we found such a beautiful beauty and deducted it by ourselves, then we must not be able to eat and walk around!"

This group of villagers sighed, they can be regarded as doing their best, now many villagers have been injured, and they may not even be able to save their lives in the fight, this group of bandits are ruthless, and they are young and strong, and most of them are already old, even young people are starving and freezing all year round, and their bodies are already very thin.

Although I don't know who these three people are, they don't have much power in cloth clothes, and it's a pity that such a beauty is a pity for the bandits.

Zhu Yingtai subconsciously shrank towards Zheng Qian, this is like peeing at the root of the wall instead of sprinkling with his back to the wall, it is all subconsciously looking for a safe direction, Zhu Yingtai knows that Zheng Qian will protect himself, so he is not afraid. And Zheng Qian didn't ink, and immediately stood up and stopped in front of Zhu Yingtai, the robber looked at a scholar and a thin young man blocking the way, thinking that he was out of his strength, and pushed Zheng Qian's shoulder to push Zheng Qian away, but he didn't expect the other party to be blatantly immovable, which almost made the head think that he was hallucinating, he felt like he was hitting a wall, and his whole arm was numb.

Could this be a ghost hitting the wall?

"Boy, our brother just asked you to get up, are you fucking deaf?"

A bandit kicked Zheng Qian before he retreated, but he didn't expect that he was kicked by Zheng Qian before he could kick it, and kicked the bandit out with a kick, and slid far on the ground before stopping, which made the robbers stunned, and kicked people away This person seems to be those people who come and go high on the rivers and lakes!

A bandit held an axe and wanted to cut Zheng Qian, but Zheng Qian grabbed his wrist, and his arm was twisted after a squeaky sound like a twisted twist.

The bandits were frightened, this person's martial arts didn't expect to be so high, a bandit trembled and pointed at Zheng Qian with a sword, this bandit swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously and scared, and they were not afraid of being injured, but in the face of this pervert who kicked people away and broke their hands at once, they were afraid: "Boy, let me tell you, your grandfather and my feet are fast, and I can kick out several times in the blink of an eye, don't make your grandfather and me anxious!" ”

"Really?"

As soon as the bandit's feet moved, the soles of his shoes were just rubbed on the snow and were kicked in the knee by Zheng Qian, and with a scream and a crisp sound, the bandit's leg was kicked off.

This made the bandits almost scared, and a bandit couldn't care about many excuses to go back to report like slipping away outside the village first, Zheng Qian picked up a bucket containing most of the cow dung that he had collected from the cowshed in front of the door, and buckled the barrel to his head in an arc in the distance like a shot.

The rest of those who wanted to leave were surrounded by the villagers' doors, and with Zheng Qian's strong backing, the villagers' morale is now very high, and the bandits have no intention of fighting. was beaten by the villagers with shovels or something, and for so many years, these villagers still beat the bandits for the first time. Then the bandits were forced to kneel in a row by the villagers roaring angrily, because Zheng Qian made one move, but if he lacked an arm, he would have a broken leg, so they naturally didn't dare to be any martyrs.

Zheng Qian picked up a water scoop containing rice on the rice bowl, picked up the scoop and hit the head in the face, and the head of the head was beaten out of the nose with blood.

"This strong man, we are forced to be bandits, my family has no money to raise so many children, so I was abandoned by my parents when I was seven years old, and I am also desperate and don't want to starve to death!"

Hateful people must have pity, and Zheng Qian was unmoved, and hit him on the head with a water scoop: "Then you can't be so violent!" ”

"But I ......"

Before the robber finished speaking, he was knocked to the ground by Zheng Qian's water scoop, Zheng Qian said with a great sense of justice: "Violence is not the best way to solve the problem, you can't rob, you have hands and feet to rely on your own ability to work hard, how can you beat people!" ”

The robbers were speechless, and while beating people, they said that it was wrong to beat people, didn't they only allow the state officials to set fires and not allow the people to light the lamps?

Now it is just in time for me to catch up, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, and many people will be injured or even killed, so we must find a way to make the villagers live warm and safe. Now the only way to put the idea on Wei Yuan's mansion, raise horses, live people, and abolish Wei Yuan as soon as possible.
