Chapter 144: I can help you

"This thing called steamed buns is really delicious-" After Zhao Xiaozu ate something called steamed buns, he immediately admired this thing.

A girl's voice came from the other side of the wall, "I made you a meat bun, you can try it." ”

"Which is the meat bun?"

"It's the round cake with meat in it."

"Oh, it's Hu Cake with Meat, how do you call it Meat Sandwich Bun? Well, delicious, delicious......"

Qin Langzhong had been watching from the sidelines, and when he saw that Zhao Xiaozu seemed to have gotten carried away, he said coldly: "It's time to go to the big school field to order troops." ”

Zhao Xiaozu had food in his mouth, and said hesitantly: "This is what a certain family deserves, how can it be worthy if you don't finish eating, a piece of the hearts of the villagers in Jinchangfang." ”

"You should know what kind of temper Li Sikong is."

Zhao Xiaozu said: "I am already a cripple, I should have been disarmed and returned to the field a long time ago, even if it is an injured old dog, Li Sikong will have some compassion, let me eat a full meal." ”

Qin Langzhong said angrily: "The most important thing in the Tang Dynasty is to wait for these arrogant soldiers, who are more fierce than the men, and there are more Hu people who are not afraid of death, as long as the court gives them a mouthful of food, they will kill whoever they want." ”

Zhao Xiaozu laughed and said, "What if they come to bite us one day? The wolf is not cooked, and when you run out of meat, he will be the first to eat you.

I'm strange, the court raised us as soldiers, originally to prevent the Hu people, but now, the Hu people are used to prevent us, it's really strange. ”

Zhao Xiaozu finished eating the bread and meat in two bites, and did not forget to shout towards the side of the high wall: "It's delicious, but there is only one." ”

"I have another one here, I'll let my brother throw it to you." The girl's crisp voice sounded again, and Zhao Xiaozu looked up at the high wall.

Sure enough, another lotus leaf bag was lost, Zhao Xiaozu caught it with one hand, and opened the lotus leaf bag to find that it was indeed a warm cake with meat.

Zhao Xiaozu didn't eat this cake, but wrapped it in lotus leaves again and put it in his arms, and said to Qin Langzhong: "When I see Li Sikong, I want to invite him to eat a bite of how delicious this cake and meat are." ”

Although there was a lot of food on the long table, it could not withstand the food of more than a thousand hungry soldiers.

After a while, the rich food on the long table was eaten cleanly by these people, and there was not a drop of wine or soup left.

Zhao Xiaozu took out a beautiful bronze mask with big eyes from his horse bag and placed it on the long table as a thank you gift.

Then he said loudly: "Today's slurry water hospitality, Zhao Xiaozu is unforgettable, say goodbye to Gao Lin, and let me wait for the report." ”

Yun Chu's voice came from behind the high wall: "The Yun clan has a strong wine that is more suitable for a martyr like the general to drink, and Yun Chu is waiting for it." ”

"I will definitely bother, so don't leave it at that."

Zhao Xiaozu, who ate a meal and listened to three lines of songs, found that all the resentment in his heart was gone at this time.

The soldiers didn't have any previous complaints, and they talked in a low voice about the food they had just eaten, there were many kinds of food that had never been seen before, and the taste was really good.

"You don't have to complain about the Ministry of War, in the past few years, Your Majesty has been preparing to use troops against Goguryeo, which has consumed too much grain and straw in the Ministry of War, and has indeed treated the soldiers in the southwest and south badly."

Qin Langzhong hesitated, but still tactfully expressed his apologies.

Zhao Xiaozu laughed and said: "Lao Tzu accepts his fate! ”

The listening army left Jinchangfang, Liu Yi secretly opened the door, and a group of people, under the cover of the bad handsome Zhang Jia, quickly took back the dinner plates and tables outside, and some women also quickly cleaned up the messy ground with the light emitted by the lanterns.

When the door was closed, the lanterns on the high wall with long bamboo poles were also withdrawn one after another.

As a result, the long street was once again plunged into darkness, and in this moonless night, people's hearts were at least warm.

"This is how you help Datang?"

The old monkey watched the trick tonight, and he felt that it was pointless for Yun Chu to do this.

"I only insist on doing the right thing now, try not to do the wrong thing, if I do more right things, I think it should make a little change in Chang'an."

"Your change has a fart use, let me tell you, Chang'an is now the capital, but it is not as important as before, and now, the voice of the demand to move the capital to Luoyang has almost become a climate.

Once the capital is moved to Luoyang, Chang'an will soon decline, and your efforts will not make any difference. ”

Yun Chu sneered and said, "Do you think that the Tang Dynasty is a tribe in the Western Regions, and if you say that you will move the capital?"

Even if the emperor likes to live in Luoyang, it is because he is timid, and he always feels that Chang'an is not stable enough, and he feels that there will be no danger when he lives in the eastern capital of Luoyang. “

"You know a fart, the population of Chang'an has increased dramatically over the years, although it is less than a million, but it is not much different, just the amount of grain that needs to be delivered to Chang'an every year exceeds 8.6 million quintals.

You see the boats on the canal that are connected for dozens of miles, but you don't know how many grain ships are there.

Your Datang is now raising the power of the whole country to support Chang'an. ”

Yun Chu looked at the dark wall and said in a low voice: "If this city does not have an emperor, it is truly perfect.

It was the royal family and the nobles who really consumed the city, not the people who lived here.

I love this city and the people in this city, and I think I can change this city, remove all the gloom that covers this city, and let the sun shine on the walls forever, like a layer of real gold leaf.

I want this city to shine! ”

The old monkey's pale yellow eyes turned around, and he looked up and patted his furry face and said, "The Yuanyuan Jingshe that Xuanzang said turned out to be Chang'an?" ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: If Master Xuanzang thinks so, then you can say so. Chang'an is my Yuanyuan Cottage. ”

"There are 540 million gold coins for the lonely elder, what do you have?"

"Don't listen to the braggadocio of the Tianzhu people, you are also used to using gold coins, how many 540 million gold coins are there, don't you count them in your heart?

Besides, if he really had 540 million gold coins, then the gold coins would not be worth as much as iron.

Also, you told me last time that there are 10 trillion Buddhas around me at any time and at any time, silently watching me. It caused me to lose sleep for several nights, and even when I was taking a shower, I felt like someone was peeping.

If it's gold, use two, if it's more than a million gold coins, don't tell me, you go directly to the Buddha to talk, that's the number that matches the identity of the Buddha.

The world doesn't need that big numbers. ”

The old monkey was so suppressed by Yun Chu's momentum that he couldn't speak loudly, so he muttered: "A few days ago, I lived like a ghost, and now I live like a hero of the world......"

Yun Chu ignored the old monkey's complaints and did a very good thing today, which made him feel extremely good.

When the goal is determined, the person will be relieved, and all that remains is to march towards the goal, no matter how far the road is, as long as you are willing to go, you will definitely reach it.

The next day, Yun Chu was waiting for Zhao Xiaozu to pay a return visit.

As a result, he did not come.

It's not that he refused to come, it's because he was beaten by Li Ji, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the blame was that he didn't arrive at the teaching army on time.

It is said that this is called a killing stick.

Li Ji is very strict in governing the army, don't say that an officer like Zhao Xiaozu, as long as he goes out, he often chooses his closest people to find a mistake and kill Liwei, so as long as the troops are out, basically no one wants to be too close to Li Ji, for fear of being killed by him as a baby.

This time it was the same, and the crime that Zhao Xiaozuan was charged with the slow army at the beginning, which was one of the seventeen laws and fifty-four beheadings in the army.

Later, Nian fought bravely in Zhao Xiaozu and lost an arm, which became a matter of beating thirty military sticks.

The soldiers who followed Zhao Xiaozu, after receiving a meager reward that night, sat in the military field all night, and were sent back to their homes as soon as it was dawn.

The soldiers of the government did not have a salary to fight, and if they fought hard, they hoped for a reward after returning victorious...... Now, hopes are in vain.

Zhao Xiaozu couldn't come, so Yun Chu went to the Imperial Medical Department to see Zhao Xiaozu who was healing there, to be honest, he was really interested in the soldiers under Zhao Xiaozu who had just fought a vicious battle.

The government soldiers sent to the north are generally elite, and most of the government soldiers sent to the south and southwest are the government soldiers who are not strong in battle.

As long as someone dares to organize more than 100 government soldiers without an order, they will be immediately found for the crime of killing their heads, and there will be no delay in time.

As for those who are not strong in battle, it can be seen from the way the court treats Zhao Xiaozu that the court does not care about them, but even more about the Zhichong Mansion under the command of Ding Dayou.

When Yun Chu saw Zhao Xiaozu, he was lying on a hard bed, and his buttocks and back were covered with a thin layer of wet linen, and the smell of alcohol was smoking.

Yun Chu ripped off the alcohol-soaked linen cloth on his body, frowned and asked, gritting his teeth and frowning at Zhao Xiaozu, who was stiff.

"Who got it for you?"

Zhao Xiaozu saw that Yun Chu was very young and didn't look like a doctor, so he asked rhetorically, "Who are you?" ”

Yun Chu hugged his fists and said: "Yun Chu, the chief doctor of the Imperial Medical Department, is also the chief of Jinchangfang, and I was the one who talked to the general across the wall last night. ”

Zhao Xiaozu wanted to get up, but struggled, and the stick hurt so much that he fell down again.

Yun Chu said: "After the alcohol disinfection is completed, the wound should be dried to let this thing volatilize as soon as possible, so as to keep the wound dry, so that it is conducive to wound healing." ”

Zhao Xiaozu said: "So I was cheated? ”

Yun Chu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It should be like this." ”

With the rapid evaporation of alcohol, Zhao Xiaozu's wound was finally no longer painful, and he reluctantly raised his head and said, "What do you want to do?" I've taken off my armor and returned to the field, and it's useless anymore. ”

Yun Chu skillfully used the disinfected cotton he brought, stained it with the blood stains on his back, and said: "Don't do anything, it's just to welcome a group of soldiers who have returned from victory, this group of soldiers can be you or someone else."

As long as I am a soldier and return from killing the enemy, I will do it. ”

"Will it be in the future?"

"Yes, if it's daytime, we'll welcome them and send slurry water, and if it's nighttime, we'll greet them with lights, sing for them, and dance for them."

"Very good, if that's the case, what are you going to do, I can help you!"
