Chapter 55: The Border City is Right and Wrong

Ye Fanggu didn't have a particularly cheap Song Nan, she proposed three chapters of the covenant, the first is that Song Nan is not allowed to disclose her relationship with her; the second is that Song Nan is not allowed to do anything to himself without permission; The third is to ask for a reasonable identity to stay in the Song family, she is not willing to be stuffed in the Song family's house all day long and can't go out.

Song Nan agreed to these conditions, Song Nan knew that Ye Fanggu's reserve was her most reluctant weapon, she had sacrificed a lot, and retaining a trace of dignity was also her last request, otherwise she would definitely have regrets in her heart.

Of course, Song Nan didn't just want to treat Ye Fanggu as a secret lover, but the time had not yet come, and Ye Fanggu was stubborn, so she could only keep her by her side so as not to suffer and experience danger outside.

Song Nan thought of a reason, and announced that he would hire Fang Gu as the Song family's nursing home and his bodyguard on the grounds that Fang Gu would know martial arts. And I also want to learn three tricks and two styles, yoga can only play a role in exercising the body, in this world, there is a three-legged cat kung fu body security is also sufficient.

Song Nan consulted Song's mother about this, but Song's mother didn't have any opinions, but she saw that her son seemed to be a little unclear with these two women, Song's mother was a traditional person, and Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli had a good appearance, but that was not enough to impress Song's mother; Song's mother vaguely warned Song Nan that the daughter-in-law of the Song family must not be a person with an unclear family background, not to mention a woman from a large family, but also a small family with a good upbringing; A woman who is crazy, stupid, and stupid and wields a gun and a stick cannot be married.

Song Nan was a little helpless, her mother's words just confirmed Ye Fanggu's words, it turned out that there was so much attention to marrying a wife, and she was still from a broken family, if it was a big family, I don't know how to choose thousands of choices, and it is estimated that even the eight generations of ancestors have to check whether they are innocent.

In the afternoon, Song Nan announced the decision to hire Ye Fanggu as the home nurse, and everyone welcomed in unison, especially Lu Qingli, whose smiling eyebrows and eyes were bent into crescent moons, Xiao Nizi thought: This time I can see Brother Song every day, Brother Song has a lot of fresh things in his stomach, and he can squeeze a little bit out every day.

When Ye Fanggu was injured, she practiced martial arts in the backyard every day, and everyone in the family had seen it, there was such a strong female nursing home at home, and in the future, no thieves and thieves would want to enter the Song family.

After everyone dispersed, Song Nan saw that Li Da Niu was a little lonely, stood aside and bit his lip silently, Song Nan went up and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Da Niu, what do you think, aren't you happy that Aunt Fang is a nurse?" ”

Li Daniu shook his head and said, "Of course not, Brother Nan, I have something I want to tell you." ”

Song Nan said: "If you have something to say, what are you polite to our brothers." ”

Li Daniu thought for a while and said: "Originally, I came into your house to follow Brother Nan'er, but later I saw that there was no labor at home, Uncle Zhong was also old, and Ping'er and they were all female dependents and couldn't do heavy work, so they stayed at home to do some manual work, and also helped take care of the safety ......of the family.

Song Nan smiled and said, "You don't want to stay at my house anymore, do you?" It's okay, what do you want to do? If you do business, I can help you with some capital, not to mention more, you can still take out the silver of 800 yuan. ”

Li Daniu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What is that material!" I want to ask Brother Nan, can I follow you to be a soldier, Brother Nan is good in the army, and I also want to be famous; The work of the family can be done by hiring two honest servants. ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "It turned out to be this thing." ”

Li Daniu hurriedly explained: "Brother Nan, I don't dislike doing things at home, I just want to...... I want to see the world. ”

Song Nan patted him on the shoulder and said, "What kind of big deal should I be, being a servant is originally a useless thing, what is there to explain; I also considered what you said, but I was embarrassed to speak, because you know that if you join the army, you will enter the army, and you will have to serve in the army for generations to come, because of this, many people are unwilling to be soldiers, I am afraid that your father and mother will say that I have harmed your family, so I wanted to say it several times, but I didn't say it. ”

Li Daniu's eyes widened and said, "Really? Brother Nan had already thought of it? Don't worry, when I went home yesterday, my father told me about it, and asked me to talk to Brother Nan about it, if I can do an errand in the army, and I also have the opportunity to mix a famous family, the ancestors of the family have been ordinary people for generations, and they also want to come up with one that can win glory. ”

Song Nan said: "You have thought about it, once you join the army, you will not be able to get out, whether you will be promoted to an official and make a fortune in the future, or die in battle, it is all a matter of fate." ”

Li Daniu said: "Brother Nan is not afraid, what am I Li Daniu afraid of?" Isn't your life worth more than mine? ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "That's not what I said, so let's go home and discuss with Uncle Li and Aunt Li, if you make a decision, come to me, and I will give you proper arrangements." ”

Li Daniu jumped three feet high happily, thanked him repeatedly, and hurried home to discuss with his father.

……

On the second day of the third month of the seventeenth year of Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court appointed the military department to come in to Ulzhou to proclaim the decree, and in February, the meritorious personnel of the first battle against the Tartars were promoted and rewarded, and the greatest benefit was Jiang Bin, who was promoted by two levels from the position of the thousand households of the Ulzhou Weibei Thousand Households, and ordered him to serve as the commander of the Ulzhou Guard, and the commander of the Commander was the position of the military attache of the fourth grade, and the commander of the Wei was in charge of Tuntian, training, daily military affairs and other matters; Although according to the ranking, he is the third person after the commander of Wei and Tongzhi, but for Jiang Bin, he has not been promoted for ten years, and now he has finally broken through the bottleneck, which can be regarded as a major event in his life.

Ma Ming, a hundred households in the North Thousand Households, was promoted to the Thousand Households of the North Thousand Households because he led the team to intercept the back road of the Tartars in this battle, fought bravely, and was also wounded, and was promoted to the Thousand Households of the North Thousand Households, and the rest of the generals and soldiers who participated in the war were rewarded and rewarded, and Song Nan was directly promoted by Jiang Bin to report to fill Ma Ming's position and be promoted to the position of One Hundred Households.

Because Wang Dan complained of illness in the border town because he was unwell, he went to Yanzhou, Zhejiang Province to serve as the commander of Yanzhou Wei, and Huang Tong, the commander of Ulzhou Wei, was transferred to Xuanfu not long ago, and the imperial court was negotiating to appoint another candidate for the commander of Ulzhou Wei and Tongzhi, and the current Ulzhou Wei was actually Jiang Bin alone in charge and became the temporary leader.

Fang Datong of the Uhju Jinyi Wei Baihu Office also received a commendation from his boss, but because his two brothers were inexplicably killed, the murderer has not been caught so far, and he only ended up with merit and demerits, and his dream of being transferred back to the capital came to naught; But the other party Datong was already quite satisfied, and he originally got the news that because of Liu Wufu's killing, Beizhen Fusi had decided to demote him, and the credit came in time to avoid the fate of his demotion.

Jiang Bin's ambition was complete, Wang Dan was driven away, and he was promoted again, all of this was unimaginable a few months ago, all of this was from the beginning of knowing Song Nan, his fate changed, for Song Nan, Jiang Bin did not dare to pretend to be an official, on the contrary, he was polite everywhere, and regarded him as a great nobleman in life.

Li Daniu also joined the army as he wished, Song Nan naturally couldn't let him be oppressed at the bottom like ordinary soldiers, and directly pulled into his ten-person personal guard team as a personal guard attendant, the personal guard army is the officer's follower, and his status is not the same, Song Nan's rights are limited, and Li Daniu has no work, so this is the only way to do it.

In March, it was the time when the spring flowers were blooming, the weather was getting warmer day by day, Song Nan's days were finally moistened, and he was highly respected in the barracks because of his relationship with Jiang Bin, and he basically couldn't do the drudgery and tiredness, except for wandering around the street with the personal guard team every day, there was almost nothing to do; At home, Song Nan's daily morning task is one more thing in addition to doing yoga exercises in later generations, which is to learn martial arts with Ye Fanggu.

Ye Fanggu is a strict teacher, meticulous in fist and foot kung fu, the bamboo strips in her hands are merciless, Song Nan because of his weak body, often can't carry the wind with his fists, and his palms can't reach the meat, so he doesn't eat less bamboo strips.

Song Nan sometimes thinks that in the future generations, all beauties will be embraced, and he disdains it, and now if he wants to kiss, he has to rely on others for charity, which must be retribution; But Song Nan can't do anything, unless Ye Fanggu is willing, there is no way he can force Ye Fanggu to do anything, although Ye Fanggu's family martial arts are not as miraculous as the book says, but dealing with himself is simply a little finger matter.

In the end, Song Nan turned her grief and anger into motivation, and secretly vowed that her goal was to one day be able to restrain Ye Fanggu with her own hands, so that she would not have the ability to fight back; With a goal, there is a rush, and the enthusiasm for practicing has also been greatly improved, plus I am not stupid, and after a month, I also dance and play with sticks, which is decent.

Not long after the peaceful days, in order to restore the defense system north of Ulju, the imperial court agreed to rebuild the fortress destroyed by the Tartars; At the end of March, taking advantage of the thaw of the land and the time of farming, the government of Ulzhou issued an order to rebuild the military village by conscription, and the people of the whole Ulzhou and the villages under its jurisdiction sent people to the north of the Huhe River to start building the fort by the government.

On April 12, a bad news spread throughout the city: the Tartar rangers made a comeback and attacked the northernmost construction site, killing more than 30 of the Ulzhou guards who were in charge of supervising the work, taking more than 80 people captive, and taking more than 40 heads of cattle such as mules, horses, oxen, and other animals that were pulling the soil.

When the news came, the whole city was shocked, and the military and civilians of Ulju, who had been living in a peaceful life for months, fell into anger and panic.
