Chapter 172: Escape
The early morning sun shook the spirits, and when it jumped out of the colorful glow on the horizon, a steaming breakfast happened to be placed in the flower hall of the main courtyard of the inspection department.
Lu Tong sandwiched a white fat bun, put it in his mouth, and took a bite, a burst of rich sauce aroma aroused his cheeks slightly sour, and a warm liquid quickly poured into his mouth, wrapping the bun on the tip of his tongue......
"Shhh He hurriedly raised his head and shut up, held the overflowing saliva, raised his hand to cover his lips with a slight face, and chewed quickly.
"Hmmm! It tastes great! ~" This sigh was leisurely and long, provoking Xiao Song, who was standing next to him, frowning and staring pitifully at his squirming lips and swallowing saliva, as if a big tail was swinging back and forth behind him.
"Tsk, look at your poor appearance, you don't have to stand and serve today, let's eat quickly!" He motioned to Zhao Qingfeng, who was standing opposite, "Qingfeng, come, you can sit down and eat too!" Ignore those two, what business are you talking about during dinner? It's not bad for this time! β
Lord Shen, who was disgusted by him on the other side, didn't even move his eyes when he heard it, but it was Lu Tong himself, and he couldn't be idle with a bun in his mouth.
I only heard Lord Shen ask the first year of junior high school, and said, "Can people catch it?" No doubts, right? β
"I shouldn't be suspicious, I've already moved in...... Master, don't worry, Brother Lu has been a spy and is a new face, this thing will definitely be done! β
Lord Shen bowed his head in satisfaction and picked up the chopsticks.
Lu Tong also hurriedly retracted his attention, and pretended to sigh, "I can't imagine that this Jiang Xiaoer really has a bit of craftsmanship, and he can make this bun so ugly and stupid at the same time, but also make the taste so wonderful and evocative!" β
"Young master, well, what's ugly about this bun? White and fat, how beautiful! I have an appetite when I look at it, well, I have an appetite even more when I take a bite! Xiao Song stood beside his young master, and said loudly while eating, he had already killed one, and he was still holding one in one hand.
Lu Tong quickly turned to the side and said angrily, "Can you finish eating?" Or stay away from me! Do you know that your saliva with the end of the bun is all sprayed on your young master and me? β
"Smack!" "Poof!" The sound of chopsticks slapping on the table rang out at the same time as the sound of laughter.
The master and servant were stunned, and at the same time followed the prestige.
"A good breakfast, it's so disgusting to be stirred up by the two of you, it's hard to swallow!" Lord Shen glared at the two of them in disgust, and chopsticks were scattered on the table.
Zhao Qingfeng, who was behind him, was raising his hand to cover his mouth, and the smile on the face of Chu who was standing on the left didn't have time to fade.
"What's wrong? I praised this bun for being delicious, did it make you unhappy? Lu Tong rolled his eyes, followed by an ambiguous smile on his lips, and deliberately said loudly, "Oh, yes, you will definitely not be happy - Jiang Xiaoer wanted to sell the buns to the Inspection Division, but you put them together!" Since you don't like this bun, then don't eat it, the four of us can get one more, you can drink some porridge to clear your stomach - well, drinking porridge can make you angry! β
Lord Shen squinted his eyes and stared at him for a moment, snorted coldly, picked up a plate in front of Lu Tong and put it in front of him, and the plate contained spicy skewers with bamboo skewers and sauce.
He protected the plate with one hand, picked up the chopsticks with the other, picked up a bun, and said, "Think beautiful!" This is what I asked to send someone to buy on the first day of junior high school, why should I be cheaper for you? β
Lu Tong protested, crossed the table and grabbed the plate: "Which one did you tell Chu Yi to buy?" This spicy skewer was obviously bought by me for Komatsu, you give it back to me, and you don't eat spicy, what are you robbing? Wash with water every time, what does it smell like after washing? It's a tyrannical thing! β
This spicy skewer is the same thing.
After eating it twice, he liked the taste of this kind of fragrant hemp, especially after being dipped in the special spicy sauce of the Jiang family, it tasted better, which could especially stimulate the taste buds and open the appetite.
He, a boy who is used to eating fine food, can also be obsessed with this kind of rough food.
This is something that even he himself did not expect!
He and Lord Shen came across the table.
In the end, he shamelessly dipped the sauce and threw it at Lord Shen, who raised his hand to block it, and he snatched the plate back from the air.
He proudly picked up a piece of pork belly with his hand and threw it into his mouth, chewing it slowly and savoring it.
Not bad!
Presumably his mother will like it too, and he can't wait to let his mother taste it too!
Unfortunately, I can't bring it back.
Well, it's been more than two months since he left home, and he's a little homesick and misses his mother!
Thinking of home and his mother, he suddenly lost his appetite.
He put the plate on the table and said irritably, "When can we go into the mountains to suppress the bandits?" I still think that sending Brother Lu into the bandits' den to arrest people is redundant, Ma Huaide has already fallen into the grass, and he will be killed together by the bandits! Didn't the four guards left behind by my father already find two groups of bandits in the mountains? Let's pick out a team of men and horses and go into the mountains to destroy them and the gang of thieves who Ma Huaide took refuge in, so that we can give my father a deal!" β
When Lord Shen heard this, he couldn't help but make a mistake, and said, "Pick out a team of people?" There are only half of the veterans of the inspection department, and more than 100 newly recruited people have just started training, how to choose people? How many people are there for you and me, plus the four left behind by your father? I think you're dizzy again. β
"Did I say that the top priority is to train the troops? Of the four of them, I only transferred out Brother Lu, and the other three are all training, if we can use March to train a strong soldier, we will have the confidence to discuss the matter of suppressing bandits. β
"In addition, we still don't know how many gangs and how many bandits there are on the mountain, and if they don't go into the interior to investigate, they will go all over the mountains to find them? What's more, relying on more than 100 people to suppress bandits, I don't have that ability, and I have to increase my troops in the future......"
Lord Shen straightened his face, and it was rare to explain endlessly, it was really Lu Tong who had convulsions from time to time, and if he didn't make his words clear, he would be able to find trouble and not cooperate as he wanted!
Suddenly, his voice paused, and he looked at Lu Tong suspiciously: "Are you homesick?" If you are homesick, then go back to Fucheng first. Recently, things are on track, and I have time for you to go back. β
It's okay to go back, now that he has a lot of helpers around him, there is nothing that Lu Tong has to do.
"What nonsense? Where am I homesick? Lu Tong felt a little embarrassed when he saw through his thoughts, so he hurriedly denied it loudly and shouted in a bluff, "It's all you, you don't know what to say!" I'll definitely help you finish out the bandits, but I promised my father! I just, I just think that the longer this matter drags on, the more complicated it becomes, and there are too many variables, so it's better to solve it quickly. β
"Besides, what you just said isn't entirely true! My father didn't say that he would let you use more than 100 patrol archers to suppress the bandits, but just let you fight the vanguard first, and when the full-scale attack comes, my father will definitely send troops......"
"Your father sent troops? Your father's soldiers are guarding the southern Miao realm! All-out attack, this huge Luoxia Mountain, these many bandits, will be stupidly waiting, will we attack in an all-out way? If you can only exterminate them separately, how long can your father's soldiers stay in the mountains? β
"Then, then find a way to get those bandits to gather first......"
"Master Lu, this is the purpose of the adults asking Lord Lu to sneak into the thieves' den! Didn't you think it was feasible at the time? Zhao Qingfeng didn't care about overstepping the rules, and reminded softly.
He really didn't want the dispute between the two to go back to the original point three days ago.
What does this Lu Gongzi say?
Or the child's mind - stupid from time to time, intermittently bipolar.
For a while, he was very smart and reasonable, and for a while, he didn't care about having to drill the tip of the horns - whether he was rational or the tip of the horns depended on his mood at the time.
He was too young and not experienced enough.
I heard that the garrison lord and wife are in harmony and family harmonyβthe family is well-off and there is no sibling rivalry, and he is indeed qualified to be capricious.
Zhao Qingfeng gave Lu Tong such an evaluation in his heart, but Master Shen said with a stern face: "I think, you should go back and listen to the training in front of your father, my senior brother, lest you be stupid if you are not satisfied!" β
"You're stupid!" Lu Tong's face turned red and he retorted, "I think you're just being stupid now, otherwise why would you force yourself to eat spicy food?" β
"What's wrong with my spicy food? In this land of Xiangchu, there is only spicy food, don't eat it, do you want me to starve to death? Lord Shen sneered.
"Who says it's only spicy food? Aunt Chen in the kitchen, but my mother specially found it for you, who can cook good Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes, you can eat your Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes every day! β
ββ¦β¦β
Of the three people standing around, except for Xiao Song, who felt that his young master was very reasonable, nodded frequently, the other two were only full of black lines.
The two of them wanted to ask: Do you remember what you were arguing about at the beginning, two sons?
However, they didn't dare and didn't have a chance to ask.
A doorman hurriedly came over and reported respectfully: "My lord, the county government has come!" The prefectural magistrate asked you to go to the prefectural office immediately. β
There was a sudden silence all around, and the two people who were still arguing just now restrained their expressions.
Lord Shen smiled and said, "I just came-it's a few days later than I expected, it seems that Chen Xianling has been worrying a lot recently!" β
As he spoke, he stood up and instructed Chu Yi: "Go and lead the horse!" Let's go to the county office and report to Lord Chen. β
