Chapter Twenty-Eight: Father-in-law
"Ye joins the army, Shaohou won't come to the big tent today?" Zhuo Bailing said with a frowning and a dark face.
After a deep conversation with Meng Yan, the two exchanged views and reached a common goal, Meng Yan reflected on his arson behavior, and promised not to use this vicious strategy until the last resort, after all, soldiers are also part of the people. At the same time, he expressed his deep apologies for what Zhuo Bailing had encountered with Zhong Roulan and Ye Bohuai, and vowed to deal with the two.
After Meng Yan stabilized Xianghu County, in order not to cause unnecessary panic, Wang Zongqing, who was hard steel with Xianghu soldiers, stayed in Xianghu to stabilize the situation, at least it would not cause a backlash, and he led the Xuanwu Army to withdraw Shaonan for repairing without reservation, and asked Xiao Huli of Wuyang City to apply for his arson.
Xiao Huli was not ambiguous, first reprimanded him for his reckless behavior, and then affirmed his merits, and at the same time expressed his welcome to Zhuo Bailing, and did not hesitate to give Zhuo Bailing the title of Earl of Luling, and let him serve as the commander of the Xuanwu Army Tongzhi and Shaonan County Guard, in the name of supervising Meng Yan, beware of him impulsively doing things too much again.
"No, I guess it's either a fire at home or an old man's fryer." Ye Bohuai is used to this kind of thing happening.
"It's really not advisable for a dignified man to be dragged down by family affairs, you are joining the army and his senior brother, so you can't persuade him well, I've been in Shaonancheng for four months, and this is the first time." Zhuo Bailing said angrily.
"Lao Zhuo, don't be so serious, this is not Jiangyou or Wuyang City, it is easier in this Shaonan City, even the vendors selling mash at the entrance of the barracks know that the command makes the adults afraid of their father-in-law." Ye Bohuai comforted.
"How can he be a commander of the Xuanwu Army's recruitment and training without asking at all, no, I have to go to him." Zhuo Bailing didn't plan to let Meng Yan go, so he pulled out his legs and walked out as he spoke, Ye Bohuai wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, Lao Zhuo was still not used to it, so it was good for him to see and understand.
At this moment, Meng Yan was nodding and pouring tea for Cang Shuliang on Taoli Hall, Cang Shuliang enjoyed it to the fullest, and scolded softly while brushing his beard, "You are a dignified commander, how can you let Haoyue drive a woman out of the house, and you can be cheeky to ask the old man for help, don't you understand the truth of Ji Si Chen?" ”
"Father-in-law, please save your son-in-law no matter what." Meng Yan's posture is like an angry little daughter-in-law.
"That's it, the old man will go back with you, Haoyue, this girl is spoiled by me, it's really not like words, but you are too, drink with Zhanchuan Gong and go to what Ruyi Building, that kind of place will go to it, what does it mean to smash someone's building?" Cang Shuliang also couldn't understand his actions of smashing the field with Xiao Yu.
"Wronged! Father-in-law, yesterday Zhanchuan Gong came to inspect the military affairs of the Xuanwu Army, we were drinking in the house, the hour was too late for fear of noisy Mrs. rest, we went out of the house to drink, this midnight only the Ruyi Building is still open, thinking about going home after drinking, who would have thought that Mrs. would take someone to smash the Ruyi Building. Meng Yan looked aggrieved.
"You shouldn't have brought her back from Wuyang City!" Cang Shuliang said domineeringly, and after saying that, he got up and let Meng Yan help him go out.
Cang Shuliang Mengyan and his party just returned to the gate of Shaohou Courtyard was blocked by Zhuo Bailing, Zhuo Bailing, who was about to have a seizure, saw Cang Shuliang and immediately held back, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, came to Shaonan City These days to Taoli Hall to listen to the old man's lectures, the old man's teaching is very vivid, the obscure truths in the ancient books have become interesting in his mouth, every word is beautiful, in retrospect it is infinitely charming, it is rare that he has never been educated, no matter what your identity is, in his eyes he treats everyone equally, Zhuo Bailing to him disciple salute.
"Pepin is also here, but what military affairs do you have to discuss?" Cang Shuliang asked with a kind face.
"Mr. Lao asked if the student had come to invite Shaohou to go to Daying to discuss mundane matters, but he didn't know that Shaohou was with Mr. and the student would come back later." Zhuo Bailing knew that there was no drama today, so it was better to listen to Ye Bohuai's own decision.
"No need, come here, come into the house and sit down, you are Shaonan's parents official, it just so happens that the old man has a lawsuit to fight here." Cang Shuliang grabbed Zhuo Bailing's arm and pulled him directly into the mansion.
Zhuo Bailing hurriedly asked Meng Yan for help, which Meng Yan didn't pay attention to him at all, looked around as if looking for something, and then Zhuo Bailing reacted to the lawsuit in Cang Shuliang's mouth, and last night Ruyi Lou reported that the store was smashed by people from Shaohou Mansion.
Before he reached the main hall, he could hear the sound of the staggered weapons of the back house, accompanied by a familiar voice, "Second sister-in-law, you should arrest the two of them on the spot, what's the point of smashing the building, it's fun to drag the two of them around the street." ”
As soon as this voice came out, Zhuo Bailing knew that he couldn't do his own things today, and he had to make a fuss, Zhong Roulan was also there, Zhuo Bailing immediately had a headache when she thought of her, if she hadn't been grabbed by Cang Shuliang, she couldn't wait to leave immediately.
"Haoyue, you come out, Aya is here." Cang Shuliang shouted angrily, although it is his daughter, but after all, it is an inner house, and it is not easy for Cang Shuliang to go in.
With a group of chaotic sounds, three women came out of the inner house after a while, Cang Shu Haoyue and Zhong Roulan naturally knew each other, but another cold and glamorous noble woman had never seen it, Zhuo Bailing was a little curious.
The three of them saluted Cang Shuliang in turn, only to hear Cang Shuliang say: "Ying'er also messed around with Haoyue yesterday?" ”
"Sir, I don't know about yesterday's events, I just heard Sister Haoyue talk about it." The woman was full of etiquette and full of respect.
Zhuo Bailing gasped, this woman is Xiao Yu's wife, the only daughter of Xiahou Ming of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, after coming to the southern border, Zhuo Bailing has heard about this strange woman, her martial arts are strong, and she rushes to kill them like no one, as a lower official, she hurried to greet them, "The lower official meets the two ladies." ”
"To meet the two ladies, can't you see me? Lao Zhuo, do you still hold grudges? Zhong Roulan asked aggressively.
knew that it would be no good to meet her, Zhuo Bailing reluctantly bowed his hand and saluted, "Oh, it turns out that the third girl is also here, please forgive me for not seeing it for a while!" ”
After hearing this, Zhong Roulan began to prepare for a fight, but was stopped by Cang Shuliang raising his hand, the old man glared at Cang Shuyue and said: "Mrs. Tanghou did such an ugly thing, and she was sued by someone to the mansion, do you know the mistake?!" ”
"Father, it was the Ruyi Building he went to first!" Cang Shu Haoyue said stiffly.
"Ma'am, I just went to drink with my brother and did nothing." Meng Yan whispered to the side.
"I can still do nothing when I go to Ruyi Building, are you muddy for me?!" The tigress was so powerful that it scared the old Mr. Cang Shu who had just sat down so much that his hands trembled.
"Ahem, ahem, Yue'er can't be so rude, men don't have to do anything when they go to Ruyi Building to drink, it's a kind of elegance." Cang Shuliang said.
"What did Aya say? Fun? Cang Shu Haoyue suddenly regained her calm and asked lightly, but why did her eyes look so terrifying.
"Uh, Aya means..." Cang Shuliang suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake and touched his daughter's bottom line, "Oops! The old man forgot, I still have homework today, and there are students waiting for me in the school. After speaking, he got up and left, his steps were vigorous, and he couldn't tell that he was an old man who was nearly seventy years old.
The hall is full of martial arts practitioners, and they can't help but exclaim, this old guy is afraid that he has practiced the kung fu of "eight steps to catch cicadas".
At this time, I only heard the sound of two people colliding outside, everyone reacted and hurriedly ran out, Meng Yan rushed out first, I wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, this time I saw the angry Xiahou Ming was holding the old Mr. Cangshu who bumped into him with a full arms, Meng Yan knew that something bad was wrong, turned around and left, Xiahou Ming in the back immediately stopped him, "Shaohou stay, the old man came to pass the order of the king's palace!" ”
It's not good to pretend not to hear, so I had to turn around hard, only to see Xiahou Ming glaring at him angrily, "Shaohou, the old man heard that you led my virtuous son-in-law to the Qinglou yesterday?" ”
"Huh?! Lord Xiahou heard me say that this matter was really a misunderstanding, and Zhanchuan Gong and I just went to have a drink. Meng Yan's heart suddenly cooled by half, Xiao Yu, this bastard, actually betrayed himself, and he was really a dead friend and a poor man.
"Oh? If it is to eat and drink, why would Mrs. Zun take someone to smash the green building? Xiahou Ming glanced at Zhuo Bailing, who was uncomfortable, "Zhuo Junshou is also here, isn't he dealing with this weathering matter?" ”
Zhuo Bailing couldn't say that he was a newly surrendered general, and he didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs, but since Shangguan had already ordered himself, how could he not answer, and arched his hand: "Lord Xiahou, the lower official is here to consult Shaohou on military affairs, and the lower official has not received a report on yesterday's matter, so he is not very clear." ”
"I see, but the official is nosy." Xiahou Ming has always been prejudiced against the family, although Zhuo Bailing is now obedient, but after all, he can't erase the figure of the family.
"Brother Xiahou, aren't you here to pass on the order? Don't delay getting down to business. Cang Shuliang is worthy of being a veteran of officialdom for many years, and he quickly grasped the key point and immediately changed the topic.
Meng Yan looked at Cang Shuliang gratefully, but Cang Shuliang rubbed his old waist with a painful face, so that Cang Shuhaoyue had to take care of his father's body first.
At this time, Xiahou Ying walked to Xiahou Ming's side and whispered a few words, Xiahou Ming's expression eased slightly, cleared his throat and read out: "Zhenbei Mansion Jun Order, order Shaohou and Zhanchuan County Duke to divide their troops into two ways, Shao Xuanwu Army out of Shaonan Pass to the enemy of Yulin City, Zhanchuan County Duke led a Qinglong Army and a White Tiger Army in Yinqing Road to defend Lingling, and the whole army was out within three days, and the offender was beheaded. ”
Everyone in the hall had different expressions, and the mess just now instantly became peaceful, and Meng Yan immediately entered the role and asked, "Gu took the initiative to invade the realm?" ”
"The Gu clan contacted the Ling Dynasty to invade the border in two ways, and Lin Cheng was all the way to Lin Qufeng personally led 50,000 people to Shaonan Pass, and he could arrive in less than three days; The other way is that the Ling Dynasty Shao Ling assassin Shi Ling commanded Ma Tong to lead 50,000 troops out of Lingling to force Yinqing Road, it is reported that it will only be available in five days, and the strength of the army can be imagined, so the prince sent me to assist the two. When it comes to business, Xiahou Ming is not ambiguous.
"Fuck your uncle's Xingtan Gu, it's finally here!" Zhong Roulan's blurted out swear words surprised everyone.
