Chapter 12 Chen Hao, the general of the town
After returning to the team, Han Xuewen didn't say anything, waved his hand and let the team move on.
"Xiaoxiao, what did you just do?"
Looking at everyone's curious eyes, Ling Xiaoxiao's brain was running rapidly, trying to find the most suitable excuse.
"Xiao Ling saw a rabbit and chased it for a long time, the rabbit got into a stone crevice, we couldn't get it out, so we just came back, it's a pity, stir-fried rabbit meat is really a rare delicacy."
Ling Xiaoxiao patted his sleeve with a disappointed face after speaking.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, feeling a rabbit flying away.
"Xianggong, is it really what Xiaoxiao said? You didn't catch a rabbit? ”
Zheng Xue'er was a little unconvinced, after all, she saw that there was a lot of mud on the cuffs of Ling Xiaoxiao and Ling Tian, would there be mud on the cuffs of chasing rabbits?
"I didn't catch the rabbit, this rabbit and chicken thief are very angry, I was so angry that I didn't get it when I lay on the ground."
Ling Tian kicked the ground hard as he spoke, as if he was very dissatisfied.
"I see, that makes sense..."
Zheng Xue'er nodded slightly and continued:
"If you can't catch it, forget it, anyway, there is still a chicken in Shinoshina."
"Hmm.... Xue'er, is there still some silver in the package your mother gave you? ”
Hearing Ling Tian's words, Zheng Xue'er became vigilant, this silver was her lifesaver, her mother had instructed her to take it out as a last resort.
"It's still the three taels, my grandmother didn't pay for the horse, and the three taels of silver were returned to me again."
"Then give this silver to Dad, seeing that we are about to arrive in Fan County, we have to use the money to buy some things, such as pots and bowls, rice and noodles or something."
"No matter how much Xiaoxiao brings, it can't withstand so many of us eating, and now there is a famine, and the farther away you are, the more food you can sell."
Seeing Ling Tian's worried appearance, Zheng Xue'er was also very distressed, so she gave him the three taels of silver in her arms.
Ling Tian got the money and walked happily to Ling Tianzhi's side.
"Dad, you take this money, it's going to Fan County soon, let's buy some food and pots or something, cooking in a pot is indeed a bit slow."
Ling Tianzhi nodded and felt that what his son said was right, but he felt that he was a little incompetent for this procurement task.
When it comes to bargaining, it has to be a woman.
"Cuiyun, you're coming!"
"What's wrong? Boss. ”
Zhao Cuiyun looked at Ling Tianlei with a confused expression.
"Not much, you take this silver, Xue'er gave it, when you get to the county town in front, you go buy something, pots and pans, rice, flour, grain and oil or something."
Zhao Cuiyun: "??? ”
"We're prisoners, will the official let us buy it casually?"
"Mother, you don't have to worry about this, didn't Xiaoxiao save the official errand, they told Xiaoxiao that they would let us go."
Hearing this, Zhao Cuiyun frowned and smiled soothingly, it is naturally a good thing to be able to buy something! I can't ask for it.
"Thanks to Xiaoxiao and Xiaoling, otherwise our family's life would be sad..."
Zhao Cuiyun has a clear mind and can carry it clearly, knowing that Xiaoxiao is reliable at home now, and on the way to exile, maybe the whole family will have to rely on her to feed.
Although the silver given by the mother's family is a lot, it is not enough to use the jade dragon.
----
At this time, the nest in the palace had been blown up, and after a few days of ancestor worship ceremony, the queen rummaged through every corner of the palace, but did not find her phoenix crown and the long-made gown!
Even the jade bracelets and jewelry that I usually wear on weekdays have suddenly disappeared! My original jewelry box was full, but there was really only one box left!
Queen Cheng Yingxue went crazy and searched everywhere in the palace, but she didn't find any trace at all!
The same scene also appeared in the Prince's Mansion, and the subordinates in the mansion had been beaten half to death, but nothing was asked!
Not only are the jade and porcelain he likes on weekdays gone, but even the silver taels that had just been ordered from the treasury to repair the East Palace were gone!
With so many goods and such a big hand, the crown prince Qin Shuheng can't understand, who has such great ability?
However, the theft of the East Palace should not be publicized, it will affect the royal face, and the prince can only swallow his anger....
At that time, Chen Hao (twenty years old), the general of the border area, rushed straight to the imperial study with a saber, frowning, his eyes were deep, and he seemed to be extremely angry.
"What's the matter, Chen Hao, you look like this, did any official in Beijing provoke you? Hurry up and tell me that I will demote him!" ”
After the emperor finished speaking, he put down the brush in his hand and walked towards Chen Hao happily.
"Your Majesty, the Ling family can't be exiled! That old man Ling is a first-class hero of our Qin Dynasty! ”
"What about the heroes, who made mistakes and committed the same crimes as the common people, if I blindly cover up, is there still a Qing official in this Kyoto?"
Qin He waved his long sleeves and sat down on the chair, his face becoming a little ugly.
Chen Hao was the bravest and youngest general of the Qin Dynasty, and the place he defended was also the most dangerous in the Qin Dynasty.
Therefore, Qin He treated him very well, as if he were his own son, and gave him the right to bring a knife face saint.
"Your Majesty, but the two members of the Ling family are honest and duty-bound, or they are deceived by traitors!"
Qin He frowned and slapped the table angrily.
"That's it! Don't talk about it anymore! My decree has been issued, will you let me lose the royal face! Go back to your home and rest, and you will return to Jing'an in three days! ”
Seeing that both of them were sulking, Gonggong Shen hurriedly stepped forward to help Chen Hao and led him out of the imperial study.
"General Xiao Chen, why do you bother, Your Majesty treats you like a son, you shouldn't be so angry with him...."
Chen Hao didn't speak, and two tears couldn't help but flow from the corners of his eyes.
When he was deeply trapped in the wolves, he was not so sad as he is now, but he didn't expect him to have a lot of achievements, and he didn't have the ability to fulfill his promise....
"General Xiao Chen, don't be angry, you will hurt your body, this Qin Dynasty still needs you to defend the frontier...."
Chen Hao didn't speak, waved his hand and left the palace without looking back.
It is said to be a three-day rest, but in fact it is no different from a grounding!
Back at the house, Chen Hao obviously felt that the guards in front of the door had been changed.
"Young Master, how's it going? Your Majesty must not have agreed, right? ”
Chen Hao nodded indifferently.
"Young master, don't be angry, can a living person still suffocate urine."
Looking at Chen Lie, who was giggling, Chen Hao couldn't help but glance at him.
"Speak quickly! If you don't have any words, stay where you go!! ”
"Hehe, young master, today, I have already clarified the matter, the Ling family was exiled to Yulong, and our station is in Jing'an!"
"The distance between the two places is not more than a hundred miles, wouldn't it be better for us to escort them safely to Yulong on the way back?"
"In Yulong, you are guarding them, but in Kyoto, you are only bullied, do you think so?"
Listening to Chen Lie's words, Chen Hao touched his chin.
It seems to make a little sense, but he is still a little sad about the emperor's attitude.
"That's it, just do as you say, set off in three days, and help me find out where the Ling family is by the way."
"Yes! Master! ”
