After a while, a girl called softly outside the door: "County Lord!

He Xiaoduo hummed softly.

"The slave waits for the lord to change his clothes. ”

"Why is it so early today before dawn?"

"Back to the county lord, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, last night the county lord told the servants to get up early. ”

He Xiaoduo sighed, and said later: "Come in!"

"County Lord, are you wearing a palace dress today?" The maid brought a basin of warm water and groomed He Xiaoduo.

"Nope. I have to go to school today, and it is more convenient to wear a corset brocade dress. Cloak cloak with bright colors, look at the spirit. At the dinner in the evening, change into formal attire. ”

"People often say that people rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold. But these words are not appropriate for the county lord. ”

"What's the matter, don't I look good?" He Xiaoduo smiled.

"Naturally not, the county lord wears everything in spirit, not the clothes add color to people, but the county lord adds luster to the clothes. ”

"Where did you learn this set of rhetoric to make me happy?" He Xiaoduo sighed: "In fact, people only need to be a little cooler, what does it matter if they look good or not?"

"The slaves and maids all said in private that if they could have one-tenth of the county lord's face, it would be a blessing from the previous life. No matter which woman it is, who doesn't want to be beautiful?"

"Ziyan, how did I not know that you could say so much before? Let's get down to business. He Xiaoduo said: "Is the banquet in the house ready in the evening?"

"Back to the county lord, yesterday the slave maid and Cui Die, Huang Ying counted together, the dishes and wine, table utensils, palace lantern anagrams, vocal songs and dances, fireworks salutes, red candle window flowers, medicine stone prizes, etc., are all ready, and the girls have repeatedly instructed that there will be no mistakes. ”

He Xiaoduo asked: "Two days ago, I agreed with General Gongliang Xiuyi, the sergeants will take turns to take a break and increase their salaries, the people will implement a curfew, and the traders will be exempt from taxes for a month, how is the implementation?"

"Lord Gongliang sent the newspaper last night, and it has not been opened in the study. Cui Die had asked the messenger carefully, she had not come to ask the county lord, and she must have arranged it. ”

"The clothes customized for Yun Tianjia, Long Yuandong, and He Dali are ready?"

"Just now, Huang Ying has been sent by Luo Erniang. There were also twenty suits for the twenty newly selected guards. ”

He Xiaoduo put on his snails, put on his clothes, and said, "You inform Yun, Long, and He to go to the blacksmith shop to retrieve the custom-made weapons, and gather at the school yard in an hour." ”

Zi Yan saluted and said, "Yes!" ”

Last night, Yun Tianjia and Long and He improvised a snowball fight, and played happily for a while, and then they were worried that the noise would be too loud and noisy to the county lord, so they went back and went to rest.

I woke up in the early hours of this morning, and everyone was refreshed. Soon Luo Erniang sent new clothes, and the three of them changed into new clothes, which made them even more energetic.

Yun Tianjia said: "Luo Erniang, why did you come to the county lord's mansion?"

"At the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, there is a shortage of manpower in the county lord's mansion, and Lord Tang asked me to help. Luo Erniang said: "Don't lose the old clothes that everyone has changed, I'll take them to wash them, and you can change them on weekdays." ”

Yun Tianjia said: "It's still Luo Erniang who thinks thoughtfully!"

As soon as Luo Erniang went to the front foot, Ziyan came to deliver the message again.

Yun Tianjia thanked him respectfully, watched Zi Yan leave, and said, "Calculate the date, the weapons of the blacksmith shop should also be good!"

Long Yuandong said: "There is enough time, let's go to the restaurant on the street to eat, and then go to get weapons." Wait a minute, maybe we will have to do a big job, and if we don't eat, where will we get the strength? Those selected guards, there must be some people who are not convinced!"

An hour later, six guards lined up on the stage at the school field, standing with guns and hooves. In front, He Xiaoduo's cloak is like fire and heroic. The left hand is Zhong, and the right hand is Wen Yanxin, all of which have arrived.

On the periphery of the school, led by Tang Feng, there was a circle of soldiers standing far away, but they came to make a strong noise. Twenty strong men in the center of the school field, fresh clothes and bright armor, with a tall military posture, faced He Xiaoduo and others, and stood in two columns.

Everyone was waiting for Yun, Long, and He.

He Xiaoduo's anger grew in her heart, but she didn't attack.

A sergeant ran to report the news: "Lord Qiqi, the person has been found in the restaurant, and now he has gone to the blacksmith shop!"

He Xiaoduo was silent, the sergeant didn't dare to get up on his knees, Wen Yan said in his heart: "I know, you should retreat first!"

After waiting for another half an hour, Long Yuandong took the lead, followed by Yun Tianjia and He Dali, followed by more than 20 blacksmiths, carrying weapons, and staggering. The blacksmith laid down his weapon, and withdrew respectfully, not daring to linger.

Long Yuandong said: "County Lord, the weapon has been taken! The workmanship is meticulous, the materials are high-quality, no more, no less, exactly twenty sets." ”

He Xiaoduo snorted coldly and said, "Uncle Wen, how to punish you for being late for the meeting in the army?"

Long Yuandong was stunned for a moment, he had the impression that He Xiaoduo had always been heroic, smiling, and approachable, but today he suddenly became so majestic and very uncomfortable.

"The worst is beheading, and the worst is flogging. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is not appropriate to see blood, and the punishment can be lightened. ”

He Xiaoduo shouted: "Come on, Yun, Long, and He dragged their feet, disregarded military law, and each of them was whipped twenty!"

The three soldiers saluted, "Yes!"

Long Yuandong and Yun Tianjia were resentful, but they knew that they were at a loss and waited to be punished.

He Dali was stunned and shouted: "Eat a meal, take a weapon, how can you violate military law?"

The three soldiers stood and looked at He Xiaoduo.

Wen Yanxin said: "Didn't you hear? Drag it down, execute!"

The three soldiers no longer hesitated, and rushed towards He Dali in response.

He had a temper attack, and the giant shield blocked it, and said angrily: "I don't know if it's white, you will come to punish me?"

Wen Yanxin shouted: "Presumptuous! In the middle of the army, he dares to speak obscenities! Whip twenty!" The figure took off into the air, kicked He Dali's chest, and returned to its original position with a hit.

He Dali's eyes were full of flowers, and he didn't have time to resist, he was kicked solidly, flew out two feet away, and fell dizzy.

He turned over and got up, wiped the blood from his lips, brushed the ground, woke up the mountain hoe, sacrificed the sevenfold shield, and laughed angrily: "What kind of military law did Lao Tzu commit? Which military law? I haven't read it, and I haven't agreed to it, so it's not like you can say whatever you want? This military law doesn't count." ”

"It's a big trouble now, and if the fat man makes a mistake, he won't listen to me. Long Yuandong complained in a low voice.

Yun Tianjia smiled bitterly and silently.

All the sergeants in the school field were inexplicably shocked.

Dare to call himself Lao Tzu in front of the county lord!

Dare to openly resist the law!

It's a challenge to authority!

It's a long life!

There was silence.

Needle drops can be heard.

He Xiaoduo's anger that had been stored in his chest was gone.

She really wanted to know whether He Dali was a hero or a brainless fool!

Wen Yan smiled angrily: "Military law can't be counted, what can be counted? You delay the military plane, speak disrespectfully, openly resist the law, and punish the three crimes together, not two hundred military whips, which is not enough to show punishment!"

"Hehe! What bullshit military law, Lao Tzu is a dignified hero, don't use military law to scare me!" He Dali's blood surged, and he roared: "If you want to kill me today, you can kill me, but if you want to whip me, you can't!"
