Volume 1 The Newborn Calf Chapter 26 The Fox's Tail Appears
Wen Mei's appearance greatly surprised Zhao Anping, but if Wen Mei's people hadn't come to the rescue, Zhao Anping would have to at least take an arrow.
In the distance, the people of the Vientiane Hall Guard Group were rushing to this side, but when they saw the people of the Blue Dragon Gang retreating like a tide, they dispelled the idea of support, and silently retreated into the shadows and continued to observe.
The guard just now also noticed this situation, and reminded Wen Mei in a low voice: "This kid is still being protected in secret, and his origin is a little unknown." ”
Wen Mei didn't care about these at all, walked towards Zhao Anping, and asked with concern: "Zhao Anping, are you okay?" ”
Zhao Anping said helplessly: "Does this look like it's okay?" ”
Wen Mei didn't know what to say, but the guard behind her said: "People care about you, why don't you know what to do, the whole elm pimple!" ”
Zhao Anping ignored her, but Wen Mei gave him a blank look.
At this time, Lin Wanli had already finished cleaning the battlefield, turned back to Zhao Anping and said, "Little Brother Zhao, you go back with me to bandage it, otherwise it will be dangerous if you are infected." ”
Zhao Anping nodded, raised his feet and walked to Lin Wanli's side. Seeing this, Wen Mei grabbed Zhao Anping and said coquettishly: "It was not easy for people to find you and save your life, but you didn't even say hello and were about to leave, what are you!" ”
Zhao Anping came back to his senses, it was indeed what he did wrong, and he hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Miss Wen is really sorry, I didn't think it through." Then he turned his head and hugged his fist at the guard and said: "This brother, thank you for saving your life, you will definitely repay if you have the opportunity!" ”
Without waiting for the man to react, Wen Mei introduced, "He's my brother." ”
Zhao Anping didn't know why, and blurted out in a daze: "Brother." ”
This brother called him at a loss, this person's name is Wen Siyang, he is the righteous son of Wen Danian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who used to be by his side as a personal guard when Wen Danian did not enter the main military department, and occasionally led the troops to win surprisingly on the ever-changing battlefield.
Wen Siyang looked at Zhao Anping, who was a little confused, and then at Wen Mei, who was slightly red, and wondered: "Is there something between the two of you hiding from me?" Otherwise, why would he call me brother? ”
Zhao Anping explained: "I just blurted it out, I didn't think too much, and this time, I met Miss Wen twice in total. ”
Wen Siyang smiled: "Then you really don't see the outside!" Well, for the sake of you being so handsome, I will recognize you as a brother-in-law. ”
Wen Mei raised her foot and stepped on Wen Siyang's foot, and the latter screamed in pain, sure enough, no matter who it was, she couldn't mess with a woman.
Even Miss Wen's arrogant personality was quite embarrassed when she heard this, and quickly explained: "Don't listen to his nonsense, my brother usually likes to joke, and he doesn't have a proper shape." ”
Zhao Anping smiled at the two of them, hiding his embarrassment.
At this time, Lin Wanli knew that the guard he thought was the righteous son of Lord Shangshu, Wen Siyang, who had heard his name for a long time and had not seen him.
Lin Wanli was a little embarrassed to be left aside by a few people, these people seemed to treat him as air, and it was not easy for him to go directly. After all, Wen Danian's daughter still has the reputation of General Wen Siyang, so she is afraid of being tongue-in-cheek if she leaves like this.
Zhao Anping observed Lin Wanli's situation and said, "Hall Master Lin, otherwise you take your people to withdraw first, and I will find a way for my injuries in a while." ”
What Lin Wanli was waiting for was his words, which was equivalent to relieving him, and he was secretly grateful in his heart. Then he hugged his fists and said: "Miss, General Wen, Brother Zhao, then we will withdraw first." ”
In Wen's Mansion, Zhao Anping lay on the bed in the guest room, at the mercy of Langzhong, and bandaged the wound after a while.
During this period, Zhao Anping saw Wen Siyang's gaze fall on the crossbow arrow he had just taken out several times, and he couldn't help but wonder what was special about this arrow, which could make a righteous son of the military department so interested.
Wen Siyang also seemed to notice Zhao Anping's gaze, and asked directly, "Do you know who shot the arrow at you?" ”
Zhao Anping didn't answer his question directly, but asked rhetorically: "Is there anything special about this crossbow arrow?" ”
Wen Siyang didn't expect Zhao Anping's vigilance to be so high, and explained: "The less you know, the better." ”
Zhao Anping: "At that time, I was tired of dealing with the enemy in front of me, and I only glanced at the archers from a distance, it should be Fu Bing, the leader of the Qinglong Gang." ”
Wen Siyang: "No wonder! ”
Zhao Anping: "No wonder? Listening to what you mean, it seems that you know this soldier very well. ”
Wen Siyang smiled and didn't speak, because he didn't want Zhao Anping to know too much, after all, his father-in-law had already laid out a lot of things, and he was waiting for the fish to take the bait.
Wen Mei was disgusted when she heard this kind of topic, and even annoyed to death! So he interrupted their conversation, "Zhao Anping, you can recuperate here for the past few days, someone will help you with meals and dressings, you don't have to do anything yourself, just take care of your injuries." ”
Zhao Anping didn't expect to be left in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, and hurriedly said: "My wound has been bandaged, so I won't bother you here, I Zhao Anping will definitely return the grace of saving my life." ”
Wen Mei was afraid that he would leave, so she hurriedly said: "Don't bother, this is a partial hospital, and it is usually uninhabited, so you can recuperate here with peace of mind." ”
Zhao Anping: "Thank you, Miss Wen, in fact, I'm not seriously injured, so I don't need this." After speaking, he got up and walked out, but was stopped by Wen Mei's arrow.
Wen Mei couldn't keep Zhao Anping, so she could only cast a look at her brother for help, pouting her little red lips, and blinking vigorously to be coquettish.
Zhao Anping was speechless, but Wen Siyang relieved the siege and said: "This little injury doesn't need to be raised in bed, it will be fine in a few days." Mei'er, don't embarrass others, look at Little Brother Zhao's red face, you should be embarrassed in such a family. ”
Part of the reason why Wen Siyang didn't take Wen Mei's meaning into account was that Zhao Anping's little face had turned red into a monkey's ass, and his uncle was relieving him, and part of the main reason was that he didn't want Wen Mansion to participate in the so-called gang dispute.
On the way back to the mansion just now, he saw that the Youbo people had been following them to the Wen mansion, and immediately sent spies to investigate, so he didn't expect that these people were the third gang today, Vientiane Hall.
A young boy can let the three biggest gangs in the rivers and lakes revolve around him, Wen Siyang is a little curious about him.
Wen Mei saw Wen Siyang's hot eyes looking at Zhao Anping, thinking that her brother admired the person she had a crush on, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart.
Zhao Anping finally left the Wen Mansion and walked towards the Vientiane Hall, he was not even embarrassed to sit in the carriage sent to him by Wen Mei.
Tang Ying saw Zhao Anping's appearance, and the heart that had always been hanging finally fell. In front of Luo Tianfei and Xiaodao, Tang Ying asked suspiciously: "Anping, do you know the daughter of Lord Shangshuwen of the Ministry of War?" ”
Zhao Anping nodded solemnly, not knowing what the second master meant.
Luo Tianfei was not surprised at all, because he had read the briefing sent by the people below, Zhao Anping gave Wen Mei an umbrella in the rain! But Luo Tianfei was very strange, why did this Wen Mei look for Zhao Anping everywhere, just because of gratitude? Is there some reason that he can't think of as an older person?
Xiaodao jokingly said to everyone: "Don't look at my nephew's young age, his energy is not small. The Qinglong Gang wants to beat him, the Sword Hall wants to win him over, our Vientiane Hall is his mother's family, and now there is a daughter of the military department, if this is allowed to develop, Daning Guo will probably have to revolve around him! ”
Zhao Anping was embarrassed to be said, and his face was slightly red.
Luo Tianfei smiled meaningfully: "Anyway, it's not a bad thing to know this Miss Wen, Lord Wen is a good official, and it will definitely help your future in the future." ”
Zhao Anping nodded, but he always felt that Hall Master Luo was hinting at something.
Zhao Anping remembered the purpose of his coming to Vientiane Hall, and said to Luo Tianfei: "When I was in the Wen Mansion just now, I was deeply impressed by what Miss Wen's brother said, and I felt that it was somewhat related to the things you are concerned about now, so I specially came over to tell you." ”
Luo Tianfei hesitated slightly, then said: "Is it Wen Siyang, Wen Danian's righteous son?" ”
Zhao Anping: "Yes. ”
Xiaodao said anxiously: "I said that you stinky boy, can you finish the words at one time." ”
Zhao Anping said with a smile: "I was hit by an arrow in the back, Wen Siyang was very concerned when the arrow was taken out, he kept staring at the arrow, I asked him if there was anything special about this arrow, but he asked me not to meddle in things, and said that the less I know, the better." ”
Luo Tianfei keenly captured some important information, and then asked: "Is the arrow of the crossbow arrow pure black?" Grooved? ”
Zhao Anping nodded in surprise and said, "There are indeed grooves, which are extremely sharp." I was deliberately hiding behind a strong man, and as a result, a crossbow arrow pierced the strong man and ended up in my back. ”
Tang Ying and Luo Tianfei were shocked at the same time, because they knew what Zhao Anping's description meant, it was very likely to be the Daning military standard bow and crossbow. According to the law of Daning, standard bows and crossbows are not allowed to be made privately, even the soldiers of princes and generals are not allowed to use them privately, but can only be used by the army.
Moreover, for the standard weapons in the army, each piece will be registered, and if there is damage in the training process, it must be reported in a timely manner, even if it is a large-scale battle damage, it must be supplemented afterwards, and strive to be traceable and well-documented, and every year the military department alone has to have dozens of boxes of management records of these swords, bows and crossbows.
Zhao Anping observed the surprised expressions of the two, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you, did I say something wrong?" ”
Luo Tianfei said with a straight face: "The crossbow arrow you mentioned is very likely to be the Daning military standard bow and crossbow, which ordinary people can't access, let alone own it and use it." ”
Zhao Anping has a little understanding of military standard weapons, because Mr. has mentioned it in military theory classes, so he is also aware of the seriousness of the problem.
Luo Tianfei's gaze shifted to the cloudy sky, and muttered: "This soldier is really bold, it seems that smuggling armaments is a certainty, I don't know how many Daning soldiers have died under his own man-made weapons because of his actions." ”
