Chapter 274: Acceleration
The guard nodded, but as if he wanted to say something, he glanced at Yue Lingjun without saying anything.
Yue Lingjun frowned and said, "If you have anything to say, say it quickly." ”
The guard exhaled and said, "General, in fact, not only the capital has these letters, but there are also brothers on the border who have sent letters, and many brothers have invited you to go to the town. ”
"But they also know that their request is a little unreasonable, you can't do this kind of thing without an order from the imperial court now, but now that the letter from the capital has come, isn't it ......?"
Yue Lingjun raised his hand to interrupt the guard's words, his face was expressionless, and he said a little sternly: "Whether it is the letter from the capital or the letter from the frontier, it has nothing to do with you, I have my own judgment, go out, don't let me say it again." ”
Yue Lingjun said and spoke, his tone was a lot tougher, and the guard obviously didn't dare to make the general angry, so he could only sigh, glanced at Shen Yingniang and turned around and went out.
Shen Yingniang was inexplicably looked at by that guard, and at the same time a little weak-hearted, she could probably understand what the other party meant by the kind of eyes that looked at her, it was nothing more than that she felt that she was a stumbling block for Yue Lingjun.
But so what? She was chosen by Yue Lingjun herself, and when Shen Yingniang thought of this, she immediately stopped being stunned.
But now that there is something serious, Shen Yingniang didn't waste time on these inconsequential things, she stepped forward and asked directly.
"What's the matter, what did the letter from the capital say? Is it like those brothers on your frontier? It also asked you to go to the front line to support the scene? ”
Shen Yingniang said, without waiting for Yue Lingjun to answer, she said a little eagerly as if she was deliberately hiding her thoughts.
"I don't know what these letters are all about, one after another, do you really have a lot of time? It's so unreliable. ”
Yue Lingjun also heard the rejection in Shen Yingniang's tone, and sighed, of course he knew what he was going to say next, Shen Yingniang didn't like to hear it, but he couldn't help but say it.
He must be mentally prepared for Shen Yingniang in advance, otherwise he will have to leave when the official order comes down one day, and before he leaves, he must arrange everything for the lady.
Shen Yingniang didn't know that Yue Lingjun was thinking so much in her heart, and she was not stupid, she knew that she could only say a few words, but she couldn't really interfere with Xianggong's decision, so she couldn't help but sigh.
"Wasn't that a little too prideful what I said? The frontier is so chaotic, if you really go to the town, then you will definitely have to take the lead in the charge, if you take the lead in the charge, then you may encounter all kinds of dangers. ”
Shen Yingniang grabbed Yue Lingjun's sleeve a little nervously.
"I've heard that the atmosphere on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I really hate myself for being so lazy before, and I can't help you a little when it's critical."
Shen Yingniang finally regretted it at this time, if she expanded her business territory faster and earned more money, would she be able to help Yue Lingjun first?
At least spend some more silver to buy some better weapons and armor for Yue Lingjun, and then spend some silver for Yue Lingjun's good brothers, so that they can help themselves protect Ling Jun.
Although this seems a little inappropriate, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, anyway, Shen Yingniang doesn't want Xianggong to be hurt a little bit.
Shen Yingniang thought so, and did not evade, and asked directly: "Xianggong, just say it directly, what is the letter from the capital?" Did it make you go to the frontier? ”
Shen Yingniang's question was so direct, but it was beyond Yue Lingjun's expectations, after thinking about it, Yue Lingjun also decided to answer this question sincerely, he looked at Shen Yingniang's cautious wording.
"Lady, the letter from the capital doesn't mean that, but I think it's pretty much the same, the person who wrote the letter was not a letter from the palace, and the person who wrote the letter should be Lu Xuanqing."
Hearing Lu Xuanqing's words, Shen Yingniang was stunned for a moment, and then a little puzzled: "What did Prime Minister Lu write to you for?" He has always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and this time he suddenly wrote to you, isn't it a little wrong? Could it be that he is sick again? Want to take a second look? ”
This is the only reason that Shen Yingniang can think of, otherwise why would Lu Xuanqing leave the capital as a prime minister of Lu Cheng? And there must be a reason for coming to this kind of backwood, right?
Shen Yingniang vaguely seemed to be able to grasp something, but it was always fleeting and helpless.
Yue Lingjun didn't want Shen Yingniang to worry about it for too long, so he said directly: "Don't think too much, since Prime Minister Lu Cheng represents the opinions of the ministers, there is a high probability that he came here to be a lobbyist this time, or rather, he is here to spread the word." ”
"I'm going to the frontier...... Eighty percent is already a fixed number, but I am in a special situation in the capital, so Lu Xuanqing will come in person, he is a dignified prime minister, if there is no emperor's will, he can't easily leave the capital at this juncture, so ......"
Shen Yingniang listened to Yue Lingjun's analysis, her mood was a little complicated, on the one hand, she hoped that Yue Lingjun could realize her ideals, and on the other hand, she was worried about Yue Lingjun's safety.
At this time, it is not an either/or choice such as giving up her small family for everyone, but intellectually, she is willing to let Yue Lingjun leave, but emotionally she is a little reluctant, which is the most contradictory place.
If Lu Xuanqing really came with the emperor's will, then Yue Lingjun would have to go if he didn't go.
Shen Yingniang felt more and more upset, but looking at Yue Lingjun's resolute face, Shen Yingniang could only suppress her worries.
Shen Yingniang thought for a long time, reached out and grabbed Yue Lingjun's rough palm, interlocked her fingers with him, and then looked at Yue Lingjun with watery eyes.
"Xianggong, I am a woman who is not willing to be in the back house, and it is naturally impossible to stop you from soaring in the sky, you can rest assured, if there is really that day, you can go boldly and boldly, I will not let you have any worries, I will also take care of the two children, and will never cause any burden to you."
Shen Yingniang reassured, looking moving, Yue Lingjun smiled, hugged Shen Yingniang directly and said.
"Lady, it's my luck to be able to stay with you for a long time, thank you."
Usually, when Shen Yingniang heard these words, she only felt numb, but these words were said by Yue Lingjun, so she didn't feel uncomfortable, she only felt happy.
Isn't it the best way for a couple to get along with each other if they are in love with each other and can understand each other?
Early the next morning, Shen Yingniang hurriedly went to find the shopkeeper Wang, she was not so anxious about expanding the territory before, but now that the letter from the capital has been delivered, Yue Lingjun may not have to go to the frontier one day.
When there is no movement in the capital, Shen Yingniang can still hold a trace of luck in her heart, Yue Lingjun may not be called back, after all, it is a huge country, and it is impossible for Yue Lingjun to be a general who can handle it.
Now it seems that his luck is still early.
Shen Yingniang didn't know the situation in the capital, but now it seems that the capital, at least in the court, is indeed unavailable, so she can only recall Yue Lingjun, a military general who resigned and left Beijing.
Since Yue Lingjun's going to the front line cannot be changed, then he can only follow his husband and wife, no matter what, Shen Yingniang doesn't want to wait in the rear in fear.
Even if she can't fight side by side with Yue Lingjun on the battlefield, she admits that she doesn't have that ability, but she can solve Yue Lingjun's worries in the rear.
What can be solved with money, that's not a thing, the most important thing at the moment is to make money, she must develop her business, especially Lei Gong Express's business, to the frontier as quickly as possible, and when the time comes, the transportation of grain and grass will have to rely on this.
Shen Yingniang thought so, and asked the groom to speed up, and soon, the carriage arrived outside the king's shopkeeper's house.
When Shopkeeper Wang was woken up by the housekeeper, the whole person was stunned, originally wanted to lose his temper, since he started business with Shen Yingniang, he had no leisure every day, and he had to take time to eat, let alone sleep.
Now that it's still early, he was called up by the housekeeper, can he not be annoyed?
But when the housekeeper said that it was Shen Yingniang who came to visit in person, the shopkeeper Wang immediately sobered up, immediately asked people to change clothes, and hurriedly went to the front hall to meet the guests.
Seeing Shopkeeper Shen sitting in the front hall drinking tea with a calm face, Shopkeeper Wang's mind finally became a little clearer again.
He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper Shen, why are you here at this time?" Is there something urgent? ”
Shen Yingniang said with a smile: "It's not urgent, didn't you make an appointment to meet Master Zhao today?" I thought about coming over early and getting ready early. ”
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly in his heart, he really wanted to see this side, but the appointment was made at two o'clock in the afternoon, early in the morning, several hours in advance, there was no need, right?
Shopkeeper Shen had never been so flustered before, and it can be seen that Shopkeeper Shen really attached great importance to meeting with Lord Zhao.
Shopkeeper Wang was surprised in his heart, but he also adjusted his mood, walked over and sat next to Shen Yingniang and said with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Shen, I am full of confidence in you, don't worry, as long as that Lord Zhao comes, with your three-inch tongue, you will definitely be able to convince him, you can rest assured."
Shen Yingniang raised her eyebrows: "I don't have such strong self-confidence myself, but you believe in me." ”
Shopkeeper Wang touched his beard and said: "That's natural, Shopkeeper Shen is a capable person, we are doing so much business now, thanks to Shopkeeper Shen, I am just helping in the back, the real contribution is still Shopkeeper Shen, I don't know which life I have accumulated blessings, and Shopkeeper Shen does not know each other, Shopkeeper Shen actually doesn't care about the past, willing to take me to do business, I am really ......"
"Okay, okay, I'll shoot when I meet with Lord Zhao, let's go to your restaurant first, and readjust the menu, the first time we meet, the first impression is very important, and we can't let people pick out the thorns, I want to expand the business as soon as possible now, and try to expand in the direction of the frontier, so I have to take Lord Zhao down quickly."
Shopkeeper Wang's heart sank, and he looked at Shen Yingniang in surprise and asked, "What does Shopkeeper Shen want to do?" Our business hasn't started yet, and you're thinking about expanding to the frontier, where there is a lot of chaos and no business. ”
Of course, Shen Yingniang can't say that it is for Yue Lingjun, although with the cleverness of the king's shopkeeper, she should guess that Yue Lingjun's identity is not ordinary, but no matter how smart she is, she can't guess that Yue Lingjun is a general.
The most important thing is that Shen Yingniang can't really develop Lei Gong Express's business completely according to her own selfish desires, she wants to pull people into the gang next, she has to let them see the benefits, just by painting cakes and feelings, she can't maintain a long-term business.
So Shen Yingniang had already thought of her rhetoric.
"Do you know why you're not doing a lot of business?"
As soon as this question came out, Shopkeeper Wang was stunned and subconsciously shook his head: "I don't know, please ask Shopkeeper Shen to solve your doubts." ”
