This cry that was almost mournful, like a loud suona on the earthen city wall guarding the city, was refracted back, and resounded through the entire city.

The soldiers on the city wall, the sergeants guarding the city gate, the lady sitting on the threshold sewing clothes, and the man who came back from carrying water from outside the city all ran to the entrance of the grass hall as if they had discussed it in advance, and fell to their knees with a plop.

Li Siye's heart swelled with irrepressible waves and feelings, there must be surprise, I thought that they were unwilling to let him leave, but I didn't expect it to be so radical. He had no choice but to endure the sourness on his nose, turned around and said loudly: "What are you doing here!" Get it all up for me!"

"Li Yuanjun!" Shi Jiang straightened his waist, crossed his hands in front of his chest and raised a big voice: "As the saying goes, once a son of heaven is a courtier!" The city has prospered in your hands, and we military families have lived a good life. But now that you are leaving, a new guard will be sent down, if this new official is a conscience, it is better to say that he is a keeper of the family business, if he is replaced by an insatiable mediocre official, he can eat up the guards of the green ridge and the belongings of his brothers!"

He turned around and said loudly to the soldiers: "Tell me, is this the reason!"

"Yes! Envoy," the soldiers looked sad, and they all knelt forward and crossed their hands and said: "The Green Ridge Guard is inseparable from you, if you leave, what will we do?" The cotton in the fields, and the quilt making a living, this wine shop and this cloth shop! If you're gone, how will we live!"

Their eyes widened in a daze, and the ladies knelt beside their husbands and wept anxiously, all raising their heads like ducks, waiting for Li Siye's reply.

In the distance, Suotong stood by the carriage and waited, and when he heard the noise here, he nodded again and again, but sighed again and again.

Li Twelve Niang and Suo Yuanyu took off their hats, poked their heads out of the carriage, and rubbed the corners of their eyes quite emotionally, they could feel something, the affection of the soldiers? A simple and sincere appeal? There is also Li Siye, a brave and vulgar person who does not have those delicate means, but he has done it, at least he is not as simple as he seems on the outside, and ......, they are more and more unable to see through him.

Li Siye knew that they were afraid of losing, so he refused to let him go, but he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, no matter how rude and unreasonable their statements were, mixed with selfishness, but their minds were simple.

"Brothers, ladies and gentlemen," Li Siye retreated to the steps of the grass hall and said loudly to everyone: "I know that you are reluctant to do so, in fact, I am also very reluctant, but the military order is difficult to disobey." The matter of where I will serve has not yet been decided, but please rest assured, no matter where I go, I will definitely settle the matter of the Green Ridge Guard first, and the next guard and capture envoy, he ...... It must not be a stolen official. ”

He didn't say anything about arranging for Yu to be the next term, after all, the eight characters hadn't been skimmed yet, and if something went wrong at that time, wouldn't it be deflated if he said it.

Where are the people willing to get up, once Li Siye leaves, they will become rootless duckweed, motherless children. Saying that the newly arrived officials are not greedy can only deceive themselves. In fact, they didn't expect him not to be greedy, they were afraid that he would come from a Pixiu, only entering and not leaving, and they were even more afraid that they would be so greedy that they would fill the entire belongings guarding the city into their stomachs.

"We don't believe that!"

"Yes, we don't!"

"Li Yuanjun, there are very few good officials like you, how can we easily meet them, besides, how rude and profligate the officers in Anxi are, how dare we expect this kind of person to show mercy!"

Li Siye rubbed his head, this really made it difficult for him, the military households were full of fists, he could neither beat nor scold, good words and persuasion did not work. I knew that I shouldn't have learned anything about free fighting in my previous life, and I had to learn more negotiation skills to deal with the current situation.

Fujimaki felt that he could give it a try, so he cleared his throat and stepped forward and said, "You can't do this, you are too selfish to do this!" How can you continue to be rich and block Li Yuanjun's path to promotion. ”

Li Siye nodded secretly after hearing this, there was some truth in what he said.

Who knew that a few military men tilted their heads, glanced at him and reprimanded: "Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, you have no roots and no family in the Green Mountains!" Wherever Li Envoy goes, you can lick it behind your ass, and those like us who drag our families with our mouths expect to meet a good official like Li Shou and Capture Envoy to live a good life!"

"That's it, that's!"

"You guys!" Fuji Mu took two steps back angrily, flicked his sleeve and said, "Unreasonable!"

"That's right!" There was a vicissitudes of sound from the street, Li Siye looked up, but it was Jiayan from the Hidden Department who limped in under the support of his daughter: "Li Yuanjun can't leave!"

Li Siye frowned, and said angrily: "You don't recuperate at home, why don't you come to make trouble!"

Wrapped in a hemp bandage on his head, Gayan reached out to break free of his daughter's support, stood in the middle of the road and said loudly: "The grievances of the military families are reasonable, you left the Green Ridge in exchange for an insatiable person, and everyone's good life will come to an end." I think Li Shou should stay in the Green Ridge forever. ”

When the military households heard that Jiayan was speaking for them, they immediately felt good about the leader of the Hu people, and echoed in unison: "General Jin Wuwei is right! Li Yuanjun can't leave!"

Jiayan nodded again and again, waved his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and continued to say loudly: "Li Yuanjun stays in the Green Ridge, and everyone's good life can continue, this idea is very good, but can it really be continued?" I don't see it, you think the Metropolitan Protectorate doesn't know what happened to the Green Ridge Guard? Where do you sell all the padded jackets and quilts you make? Didn't you sell it to the turtle and send it to the Metropolitan Mansion? Seeing you sitting on the ground and making a fortune, sooner or later someone will be red-eyed. After all, Li Siye is just a small guard, can he protect you? Can you protect the hard-won prosperity of the Green Mountains?"

After hearing these words, the soldiers looked at each other, or nodded their heads one after another.

"From the words of the general, Gayan has some truth, such a poor place is rich, and there will indeed be people who are greedy."

"If so, what then?"

Shi Jiang, Song Heng, Daniel Zhang and other officers looked at each other, with a little doubt on their faces.

He set aside time for the soldiers to reflect, and then said unhurriedly: "Tell me, with Li Envoy's talents, will he stop at guarding and capturing envoys in the future?" Or is it a small lieutenant, a lieutenant? If he really stays in this place, everyone will sit and wait to die together! Li Yuanjun is a person who misses the old, he has governed the city of Lingling so well, can he be willing to destroy it in the hands of others? In the future, no matter where he goes, how high his official position rises, as long as he is still in Anxi, he will take care of the green ridge and take care of you.

The soldiers knelt on the ground and fell into a short silence, and under the leadership of Shi Jiang and other officers, they stood up with their hands bowed and stood up in two rows, like a mourning filial son, squatting on both sides of the straight road, still with their hands crossed in front of their chests, and shouted in unison with a high-pitched voice and a little pathetic: "Congratulations to Li Shou to arrest the envoy to go!"

"Congratulations to Li Shou on his trip!"

Li Siye was moved, it was clear that there were only a few hundred men and women combined, but he had the feeling of being seen off by the whole city.

The word send-off is not very auspicious here.

He led the black fat and walked forward slowly, turning his head left and right to look at the brothers on both sides. Some dusty men had two tears on their cheeks, but they stood still like sculptures, and their eager eyes shifted with his footsteps, watching him lead the black horse out of the city cave.

When passing through the doorway, Li Siye took advantage of the darkness and no one noticed, raised the sleeves of his robe and wiped his eyes vigorously, but the robe was covered with dust and stains, which stimulated his eyes to be hot, and tears flowed down uncontrollably. He simply closed his eyelids and wiped a handful on his face, and when he walked outside the cave door and looked up to meet the sun, he was already a sculptural smiling face with resolute and slightly bitter lines.
