Chapter 111: Gongs and Drums Noisy & Circle the City
Li Yuhao was not wrong, in the evening of the next day, the Marquis of Suiyuan and Mo Yushi brought a large amount of rice and grain into the territory of Xiyuan, and its momentum was huge, as if Xiyuan had been attacked by three enemies and had run out of food for many days, which was specifically manifested in Li Xiang and his party living in the southernmost inn of the county capital, and they could hear the movement at the gate of the city in the north.
There are not many generals in Dayan, and there are even fewer who can lead troops, and there are very few who can lead troops and have military power, which is really very few, among them, the Suiyuan Marquis who has accumulated a lot of military achievements and is definitely the best among the leaders.
And Mo Yushi Mo Lingfeng, a scholarly family with a red roots, in the early years, he was not less suspicious of Li Yuhao and their noble sons, and later he was forced to become a relative in the imperial examination, so he gradually "embarked on the right path", and his younger brother was Bian Cheng's new champion Sijun Mo Lingchen.
In order to prevent people from suffocating their problems, there happened to be a task "sent" by Li Yuhao, Li Xiang brought everyone downstairs for a meal on a whim, and was ready to discuss how to pit those squires for money after eating, but when he picked up the bowl, he heard the noisy gongs and drums in the north.
After asking the overjoyed patrol soldiers, he sat back and continued to eat.
Obviously, everyone didn't have this in mind.
How long had they been here, how long had they been trapped in this inn in the county capital, the kind that didn't give a step out of the door, and there seemed to be a dead silence outside at all times, except for the scavenging birds, and the only human voice was the gong on the hands of the soldiers who were patrolling and delivering decoction from house to house.
The inn where they lived was almost half a county away from the place where the patients were placed, and no one had really seen those who were infected, neither dead nor alive, so in this safe area deliberately demarcated by those men, the epidemic seemed to be insignificant to them, especially to Li Xiang and the others, some people were trying to figure it out, some people were solving it, and they couldn't see it, so it seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of fog, branded with a label that was not terrible.
can be compared to the month of solitary confinement, not to mention the silence, it is clear that they are the only ones left in this Western Plains.
This hustle and bustle, like a world away, suddenly dragged out of the fog of talents, only to find out, ah, it turned out that this epidemic had been released by the treasury more than half a month ago, and it turned out that Xiyuan was no longer enough to support the rations of the people of Xiyuan......
I couldn't eat this meal, and I couldn't wait to go to the city gate to take a look.
Until the soldiers on patrol every day beat the gong and ran all over the long street, informing the people of the county capital: The Qin mission is coming! Here comes the grain of the treasury! The garrison is also coming!
The sudden noise and the sound of firecrackers like a celebration blew up the people of the city who had been trapped at home for forty or fifty days, I don't know when, the first window opened, a young child poked his head out to look, the patrolling soldiers didn't seem to notice, the second window opened, a man squinted and peeked out, the patrol soldier glanced at it, ignored it, the third window opened, the old woman pushed open a crack and looked at the patrolling soldier, trembling according to the order of a long time ago to close the window, but saw the soldier smile at her, The hand shook, but it was directly pushed away, and soon, the fourth fan, the tenth fan......
Two quarters of an hour later, the people of the entire county opened their windows, and it was clear that so many people could not see the city gate, let alone recognize the Qincha who had come, but they all stretched their necks.
Perhaps it was an illusion, the people who lived closest to the city gate actually felt that those carriages stopped at the city gate for a while and then moved, rubbed their eyes, and found that they were not mistaken, they really moved!
The two men led by him were dressed in red, and they looked from a distance, as if they were going to pick up their relatives! Then the two red dots moved, and went into the city, followed by a carriage, beside which stood the soldiers, their blades glowing in the twilight, and there was no edge in sight.
In the blank eyes of the people of the county capital, the Marquis of Suiyuan
On the tall horse, Suiyuan Hou You Jin, who only became a father last year, had a smile on his face, holding the reins with one hand and pressing the reins with the other, so he restrained the idea of taking off his clothes immediately, and greeted the people on the opposite street with his head, hatefully grinding his teeth and saying: "Whose idea is this!" Don't say it's nothing to do with you! ”
Mo Lingfeng Yushi smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, his mouth was about to stiffen, he lowered his voice, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, if you hear it, you will wear it in vain, go around the city, according to the whole speed, there is still an hour and a half to go." ”
You Jin, the Marquis of Suiyuan, who was on a mission for the first time, held his breath, and the extremely stiff rush of the people who had recovered from this impact one after another bowed their heads.
Looking at the high-spirited Qincha and countless rice grains, someone in the crowd suddenly laughed, and soon, the fear of facing death for so long and the confusion of the unknown all melted into a voice or crying or laughing, and finally, they all turned into a sentence in unison, "Welcome to Lord Qincha!" ”
The shouting was like a rainbow, but it was a little embarrassing to fall in the ears, anyway, after an hour and a half of going around the city and returning to the inn, Suiyuan Marquis and Mo Yushi were already deaf.
Both of them looked indifferent, Mo Lingfeng took off his red clothes, threw his head and face on people, picked up the teapot and lifted the lid, drank half a pot in one go, how to hand it to You Jin, the latter wanted to dislike it, but the people in this post station went to settle the tens of thousands of catties of rations, and the pot of tea was already good, besides, they had known each other since childhood, and there was nothing to be poor about, so after taking it, the teapot would soon bottom out.
Li Yuhao, who was confused by the red clothes, was not half annoyed, and went to the back kitchen to pick up the hot rice and hot dishes steamed on the cage drawer, and even went to the place where the shopkeeper settled the accounts and touched a bottle of wine.
"Can you please stop being so stumbling? Anyway, I also crossed almost half of the big Yan and rushed over, isn't this freshly made? You Jin was disgusted, but his hand to catch the chopsticks was faster than anyone else.
Li Yuhao poured the wine slowly, and said quietly: "Be content, the food I ate when I first came back was much worse than this." ”
“…… Isn't that your own brother-in-law? ”
"That's a good point, then there are two close henchmen of Shangshu!"
"So?"
"So, I have to keep up with my sister and the girls from the Monk's Mansion first." Li Yuhao glanced at his friend, "Let's put it this way, the people of Xiyuan, we can't use it and don't dare to use it, those who can cook on the fire in our own people are cooking for those patients who are gathered, and those who can't take care of the patients, see, I've been here for so long, and I wash my clothes by myself, this rice, I cook, be content, except for my sister, you two have this blessing." ”
Mo Lingfeng looked at Li Yuhao and shook his sleeves, and then looked at the food in front of him, he couldn't swallow it in his mouth, "Are you sure it's not poisonous?" Are you sure your sister ate it? ”
"Hmph, you're not dead yet, so it's not poisonous." Li Yuhao sneered, he picked out a chopstick from the only dish that Mo Lingfeng hadn't touched yet, stuffed it into his mouth, and said inarticulately: "Eat quickly, there is something else to do, it's your own person when you come, don't see outside, we'll ...... later"
