Chapter 210: To Go or Not to Go?
"You little girl, do the adults in the family know that you came out to run around? The military rations we were ordered to transport, don't mess around here, if you mess around, we will arrest you......"
Hearing the sound of the soldier in front of him scolding him from a distance, Lu Chengqing's face darkened, he drove his horse forward, and reprimanded the soldier: "After camping today, I will take twenty military sticks, and it is a secret of the military aircraft for us to escort grain and grass, even if it is a childish naughty boy, you can't be slack, can you be convicted?" ”
The entire squad, including the soldier, saluted one after another to confess their guilt.
At this time, Xiao Doudou saw Lu Chengqing, and shouted in surprise: "Hey, it turned out to be you, I saw you in the Taiji Palace, they didn't believe that I was Princess Ping'an, I want to find my fourth uncle, can you take me there?" ”
Well? Lu Chengqing raised his eyes and saw that this ...... Is it really a little princess? Hurriedly turned over and dismounted, saluted and asked: "Lu Chengqing, the head of the Xiaguan Household Department, was ordered to escort grain and grass to meet Her Royal Highness the little princess, I don't know why Your Highness is here?" ”
"Oh, excuse me, have you ever eaten? I came out hungry to find food, and I was almost bombarded by your soldiers, if you don't come, I'll take Xiao Hei and grab it......" When he said the back, Xiao Doudou also blushed a little, and his tone was a lot lower.
But it was still heard by the people around them, and everyone held their stomachs and didn't laugh.
Lu Chengqing ordered the team to camp and rest temporarily, invited Xiao Doudou to his own Chinese army, and arranged it briefly, and soon a hot and delicious broth came up.
Lu Chengqing was distressed and puzzled by this scene, what happened to Her Royal Highness the little princess? Starved like this? Could it be that you have encountered a bad guy and ended up here?
After a full meal, Lu Chengqing said: "The lower official has ordered someone to prepare the frame, so he will send someone to escort Her Royal Highness the little princess back to Chang'an." ”
"Back to Chang'an? No, I don't want to go back. I came out to find the fourth uncle, and I won't leave if I can't see the fourth uncle. Didn't you go out to war with the fourth uncle? Take me to him. "Xiao Doudou speaks very clearly.
Lu Chengqing was stunned, and asked tentatively: "The little princess ran out by herself?" ”
"I didn't ......" was like guessing the cat's tail, the little guy was not as good as Lu Chengqing, and it was exposed in one sentence.
Lu Chengqing only felt that his head was big, how could this be done? Send her back, she is disobedient, you can't let her march with the brigade, right?
"Back to the little princess, we are ordered to escort grain and grass to Liangzhou, not to follow the four princes to fight, about the imperial court to transfer troops to fight, the lower officials have also heard of it, but it is not easy to mobilize the army, at least three days before you can set off, so if you are looking for the fourth prince, you can go directly to Chang'an City to find it now, or continue to stay here and wait for three days, maybe you can meet."
What??? Three more days? Xiao Doudou exclaimed, with a hint of timidity in his eyes, thinking that I don't want to starve for another three days.
Lu Chengqing was overjoyed when he saw this, it seemed that his guess was right, the little guy ran out by himself, and he was dressed in civilian clothes, and he was so hungry that he robbed the road to rob the food, he must be having a hard time outside, and he should be able to stabilize her temporarily.
"Okay, then you can stay here and wait with me for three days, hehe, with you here, you don't have to worry about food." Xiao Doudou said wittily.
What's that? Shall we stay with you?
Lu Chengqing said with a sad face: "This is not good, we have orders in our bodies, we can't delay, we can't stay with you." In this way, why don't you leave a team of people with you? Or you go on the road with us, because if the imperial court sends troops, it will follow us in the same direction, we can go slower, maybe we can wait for the four princes. ”
"Oh? Are you sure? Such a coincidence? Okay, then let's go together, hehe, I'll wait for Uncle Si in front, and I'll surprise him when the time comes. The little chicken thief said.
Lu Chengqing ordered someone to accompany and take care of the little princess, and then sent his henchmen to rush back to Chang'an City, and be sure to send the news back to the palace or the Qin Palace.
Because Lu Chengqing was ordered to escort the grain and grass to set off first, there is a way that the soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, so when they set off, they had not received the news that the little princess was missing and was under investigation, otherwise, it is estimated that Lu Chengqing would not have to be so troublesome, and would directly send someone to forcibly escort the little princess back, of course, the premise is that this does not know the real combat power of the little princess, and fortunately he did not use his hands, otherwise I am afraid that I will make things happen.
It's good now, the entire grain transportation team walked slowly, just to wait for Chang'an City to send someone to pick up the child.
Li Yuanba and the Xuanjia Army, who set off from Chang'an City in the rear as the vanguard, searched all the way, but there was no trace of the child, and they were wondering, could it be a mistake in guessing? Didn't Xiao Doudou run away from home to fight at all? And just playful and hiding?
Coincidentally, their team happened to stagger with the person sent back by Lu Chengqing to report the news, but due to their fast march, it didn't take long for them to catch up directly with Lu Chengqing's grain transportation team.
Xuanjia Army Zhai Changsun said: "Lord Wang, the front is the grain transportation team of my vanguard army, and I haven't met Her Royal Highness the little princess until now, I guess the judgment is wrong, Her Royal Highness the little princess is not waiting for us outside the city, we have to report back to Your Majesty as soon as possible and send someone to look for it again." ”
"Yes, yes, you're right, Doudou has had an encounter with being robbed, and I have to guard against it!" Li Yuanba nodded and said, "Without further ado, do you want to write a courier and send it back......"
"Fourth Uncle...... Fourth uncle, it's me......"
Before the words fell, the two horses in front of them rushed towards the Xuanjia Army with smoke and dust, and the one person led by one horse was still shouting, who is it not Xiao Doudou? Although Lu Chengqing is also a good horse, he can't catch up with the little horse king Xiaohei at all, so he can only follow behind and eat ashes.
Well?
Li Yuanba stepped forward in surprise, his uncle and nephew met, and Xiao Doudou inevitably complained about his grievances, coupled with Lu Chengqing's narration later, which made Li Yuanba feel distressed.
On the other hand, the brothers Li Er and Li Yuanying in the palace received Lu Chengqing's secret report, the child was found, and the stone in everyone's hearts finally landed.
But Li Er raised a different opinion, "In my opinion, it may not be a good thing to let Doudou go out with the fourth brother this time." ”
"Erlang, are you confused? How old is Doudou, a girl, what are you doing on the battlefield? Besides, there are flying stars on the battlefield, in case there is a misstep......" Li Yuan reprimanded.
Li Er shook his head and said: "Father, after listening to me, we sent 50,000 troops this time, 100 generals, and Mao Gong led the army, and the fourth brother is the vanguard, if we don't let Doudou come forward, what danger can there be?" The key is that the fifth brother is about to marry, and he marries six at once, and if he is there, it is not easy to persuade this child to start a temper, so it is better to take this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, isn't it? After all, she must go now, even if she catches it back, she may not be able to look down on this little guy with great powers. ”
Is that so? Old Li Yuan fell into a deep groan.
Li Yuanying was about to refuse, he was still worried about his daughter, but he didn't expect his wife Cui Shi next to him to nod and agree, "Your Majesty Shengming, it is indeed a good idea to kill two birds with one stone." ”
Li Yuanying turned his head and glanced at his wife, "What nonsense?" Aren't you worried about your child's safety? ”
Cui Shi smiled: "This child has been pampered by you and has become lawless, who can control it?" It is a big deal for the husband to marry, and the child just wants to go to the grassland to play, so why worry about having General Yuwen accompanying him? But if there is a bad pool in the marriage of the husband, as His Majesty said, in case the child makes trouble, she is born with divine power, who of us can persuade it? ”
Hearing this, Li Yuanying fell into deep thought......
