79. Zhu Quan's box
The county lord of Ancheng said reservedly: "You are flamboyant again." ”
Cheng Yuan smiled: "Didn't I miss you, didn't I say that, there is not a day in Daning that I don't want to be the county lord." ”
Although he knew that he was making himself happy and sugar-coated cannonballs sticking to honey, An Cheng was still very interested in this, and snorted lightly: "How is my father?" ”
Cheng Yuan bowed his head and said: "The prince is fighting on the periphery of Beiping Mansion, and we are responsible for holding Beiping City, that's it, I'm going to the city tower, do you want to go over together!" ”
Call...... The two men she was worried about were safe and sound, and the sorrow of many days suddenly disappeared, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "Hmm." ”
The two walked side by side.
Cheng Yuan said: "Our business, the prince has already guessed it." ”
He still had a smile on his face, faintly calm, but there was nervousness and a hint of uneasiness in his tone.
An Cheng was not afraid of anything in his heart, but after all, his face was too thin and reserved, and he couldn't let go of his strength for a while, and said: "Now that the soldiers are in the city, where can I take care of the love of my children." ”
"When Jingnan succeeds, I will tell the prince about us."
The two left the courtyard.
Xianning walked out and said, "Let's go to the city tower too." ”
Lang Mo said: "County Lord, the princess does not allow you to go to the city tower. ”
Xianning lifted her skirt, broke out in one step, and walked away with a chirp, and Langmo immediately followed.
Zhu Gaochi walked to the table, ordered Yahuan to send hot water, Xu's skillful tea, Zhu Gaochi and Cheng Yuan drank tea in the warm east and listened to Daningwei's passing.
It does not include the part of Cheng Yuan and Da Yuer's contact.
"Mr. Cheng, how do you and the master get in touch with Tai Ningwei? As far as I know, the leader of Tainingwei is a highly respected person in Duoyan Sanwei. ”
Facing the soul of Princess Yan Xu, Cheng Yuan said: "It was Tai Ningwei's attendant who invited him with the master when he gave a gift to King Ning. ”
It can't be said that it is relying on the line of the daughter of the leader of Duoyan Sanwei, Cheng Yuan said: "After that, Ning Wangfu was forced by the governor of Songting Guandu, and the prince also came from Yongping. ”
Xu nodded: "This time it's really thanks to you." ”
Cheng Yuan glanced at An Cheng on the other side, and smiled at Xu: "Yes, it is a good thing to be able to help Wang Ye Jing succeed." ”
When a few people were talking, Xianning walked in with a dress, sat down with Xu, and said coquettishly: "Mother~"
"Xianning, why did you come here, you don't usually come when you are asked to come." Xu looked at his precious daughter lovingly.
"Mother, in the future, I will come to see you every day~" Xianning sat next to him.
Cheng Yuan saw that there were no outsiders, and directly said what Zhu Di had said to him when he returned to the city, so he said to Xu and Zhu Gaochi seriously: "The king of Gaoyang County is destroying the grain and grass supply route of the southern army.
Although the weather is cold now, it is not enough to make the Southern Army realize our purpose, because the King of Gaoyang County will suspend the destruction of the Southern Army's grain and grass these days.
When it gets colder in half a month, we are draining the Southern Army from the grain and grass. ”
Zhu Gaochi said: "How many days have you still poured water on the city wall? ”
"Yes, the ice is so thick that they can't climb it, they can't go up the wall, that's it." After Cheng Yuan finished speaking, he got up to look at the defense of Beiping City, as long as he followed and maintained, there would be no big problem.
…………
At night, the cold wind howled, blowing like a knife on his face, Cheng Yuan pushed the door and walked into the side hall of Yanwang's Mansion where Zhu Quan lived.
Zhu Quan told Cheng Yuan that he was going to defend the city.
The cold wind was howling in the courtyard, and there stood a woman dressed in white like snow, holding a cowhide whip in her hand, rolling up the clay pot on the ground and throwing it far away.
Inside, a bloody rooster was revealed.
I want her to practice whipping with this.
Da Yuer is delicate, willful, wild, and bold, like a wild horse on the grassland, unwilling to be bound by a wild horse.
"Miss Yu'er, there is a special place for martial arts practice in Yanwang Mansion, and whipping cannot be practiced here." Cheng Yuan reminded her.
"This is the etiquette of your Han people." She continued to go her own way, and she did not abide by the etiquette of the Han people in her bones.
Cheng Yuan stood at the door, glanced at her and said loudly: "His Royal Highness King Ning!" ”
The lights in the house were on, Zhu Quan opened the courtyard door, and Cheng Yuan entered the house with the cold wind.
Cheng Yuan said: "Lord Wang, you were also a good man when you led the troops for the Ming Dynasty, today Li Jinglong's soldiers are coming to the city, and the prince wants to defend the city together, the prince and the princess both agreed, please let me pick you up." ”
Zhu Quan was taken to Beiping Mansion and didn't sleep well, he was afraid that Zhu Di would dispose of him because of his previous refusal, so he planned to negotiate some conditions with Zhu Di to find a way to live for himself.
"Okay, this king happens to have something to talk to the fourth sister-in-law." Zhu Quandao.
King Ning's side concubine Dana'er took Zhu Quan into the house to prepare clothes.
Da Yuer entered the house and looked at Cheng Yuan quietly, her fair face was red by the charcoal fire, she came to Yanwang's Mansion, except for Duoyan Sanwei outside the city, the only people she was familiar with were King Ning and his wife, and Cheng Yuan.
Her face was blown white by the wind, and Cheng Yuan couldn't help but shudder: "Miss Yu'er, you can still live in Yanwang's Mansion." ”
"I can also defend the city, please Cheng Steward and talk to the prince of Yan Wang later, and recommend me to defend the city." Da Yuer said.
"You can ask His Royal Highness King Ning to help you talk about this matter, after all, he is your uncle, he understands you better, and it is more appropriate."
Da Yu'er raised her snow-white chin: "Didn't you say that you know me very well?" So what about doing it for me? ”
Cheng Yuan said: "Okay, I will recommend you to the prince in the future." ”
Da Yuer said: "Do what you say." ”
"When he says it, he does what he says, it is the husband's doing, Miss Yu'er persuaded Tai Ningwei, then I Chengyuan should also reciprocate."
Da Yuer is a grassland person, and she worships upright men and heroes, Cheng Yuan's words made her slightly surprised: "I only think that I can talk about things as a steward, but I didn't expect to be a man." ”
"This time, you helped King Yan borrow soldiers and horses, why didn't you get promoted to an official?" Da Yuer looked at Cheng Yuan playfully.
Zhu Quan walked out and handed the wooden box to Cheng Yuan: "Cheng Steward, this is the roster of the Daning Wei treasury, the household registration and military register, as a bargaining chip for this king." ”
"King Ning, don't worry, the prince won't."
Cheng Yuan wants to take over the account books, the roster of the treasury is the most important, and he must not lose any account books, these are of great use.
Zhu Quan said: "I want to see the fourth sister-in-law, I have something to say to her." ”
If these booklets are used well, they can play the role of swords, guns and artillery.
Cheng Yuan guessed what Zhu Quan meant, he should have wanted to use these account books and rosters to gain the right to speak for himself.
"King Ning, please!" Cheng Yuan led the way in front.
Zhu Quan nodded, holding the box he had decided to give after careful consideration, and headed towards the city tower of Beiping Mansion.
The contents of this box are the roster of Daningwei, many of the soldiers of Daningwei are locals of Daning, and their families are also in Daning.
If you grasp the information of the soldiers' families, you will also grasp the loyalty of the 80,000 soldiers of Daningwei. Cheng Yuan naturally didn't dare to slack off.
