Chapter 362: The Annex
After dinner, Dong Lao called all Yun Zhen to the West House, and asked them to memorize the mantra one by one, and if they couldn't memorize it, their training would be doubled tomorrow. All of a sudden, several boys complained bitterly and said that they would never dare to do it again.
"You guys, you're the boss. Yun Zhen is going to get married this year, how can he still be so naughty? I just took a nap, and you guys went to make trouble for Yunxue. Alas, I really don't know what to say about you. "After all, Dong Lao is old, and his spirit is inevitably a little weak, and he was really stunned for a while in the afternoon.
Shen Hongjun hurriedly pleaded, "Dong Lao, I don't blame them, they are all children." They were also afraid that Yunxue and I would be bullied alone, so they would peek at it. They care about their sister, and it's not wrong. "These will all be brothers-in-law in the future, if you don't hurry up, what will they do if they join forces to embarrass themselves in the future?
Dong Lao was actually just acting in front of Shen Hongjun, and when he heard Shen Hongjun say this, he would no longer pursue it.
"By the way, Dong Lao, I came this time, I have other things, and I just want to ask Dong Lao for advice." Shen Hongjun hurriedly said that he wanted to encircle and suppress the bandits in the area of Changbai Mountain. "Yun Xue told me, you know this area very well, so Hongjun is not talented, and I want Dong Lao to give me some advice."
When Dong Lao heard this, he nodded, "The imperial court can think of suppressing bandits, and it seems that it really values the people." It's okay, some of these thieves are indeed evil and guilty, and it's time to clean them up. "Dong Lao turned around and shouted Yun Zhen." Yun Zhen, go and ask your eldest sister to find a map in my box, drawn with white silk. ”
Yun Zhen hurriedly went to find Yun Xue.
Not long after, Yun Zhen really took a map back and handed it to Dong Lao. Dong Lao unfolded the map and spread it on the kang. The map, about four feet long and three feet wide, was drawn on white silk and then pasted. On the map, the mountains and rivers are marked with various colors, and this is actually a map of the Changbai Mountain area.
Dong Lao pointed to the map and explained to Shen Hongjun the terrain on it little by little, as well as the geographical location of each cottage, those secret posts at the passes, and so on.
Shen Hongjun listened attentively, trying to remember what Dong Lao said, but this thing is actually quite complicated, and some of them really can't remember. Still Yun Ting was clever, and when he saw this situation, he took out a pen and paper, handed it to Shen Hongjun, and asked him to write down the key points.
Shen Hongjun took the pen and paper and wrote down everything he wanted to know.
"Old man, you seem to know all these places, how do you always know about them?" Shen Hongjun was a little puzzled.
Yun Zhen said proudly at this time, "Brother Shen, you don't know, my master's prestige in this area is extremely high. The mountains everywhere are admired by his old man as a god. My master is not only good at kung fu, but also excellent in medicine, and most of those thieves have received the favor of my master, so he can only know these things. ”
"Hongjun, my old man is telling you this, not just thinking that you want to kill all these bandits. In fact, a large part of these people are forced to embark on this road. These people are very righteous, and they are all very strong. If the imperial court is willing to adopt them, it is actually not a good thing. You have to think about this matter carefully, and I will tell you what is really evil in it, and you will not have to show mercy when the time comes. But for the rest, I hope you can plan for them and don't kill them all. Dong Lao looked at Shen Hongjun very sincerely.
Shen Hongjun nodded, "Don't worry, the imperial court is not going to kill them all, but I just want to take this opportunity to subdue all these cadres, and they are endangering the people." ”
"That's good, the old man doesn't want these people to die because of me. Well, I've told you all I know, and I don't want to know how you set up your troops. "Dong Lao let go of his worries at this time." I'm going to give you this map, I hope it can help you. ”
It wasn't early, everyone cleaned up, and then went to bed. Shen Hongjun is naturally in the same room with Dong Lao, and the Yun Zhen brothers are in the suite of the Westinghouse.
This night, Shen Hongjun couldn't sleep over and over, he thought about Yunxue in his heart, and also thought about the bandit this time, until he fell asleep in a daze.
The next day was the twelfth day of the first lunar month, and Shen Hongjun came this time to take Yunxue to the state city. After breakfast, Shen Hongjun discussed with Dong Lao and Yun Xue, "Old man, I came this time to take Yun Xue to the state city to see the lanterns." Or Dong Lao will join us. ”
Dong Lao shook his head, "I won't go, this old bone is really too lazy to move." I'm looking after the house at home, you guys lead these little ones out, they may not have seen the lanterns in the state city yet. ”
"Master, we're all out, can you do it at home?" Yun Xue was a little worried.
Dong Lao couldn't help laughing, "You, have you forgotten that the old man didn't live alone before?" You can't even cook because you've enjoyed a few days of happiness, right? Don't worry, although I can't cook as well as you, I can still have a full stomach. Go on, go on, you're tired enough, since your father and mother are gone, I'm afraid you don't have the heart to have a good time. This time, I was accompanied by Hongjun, and I came back when I had had enough. ”
Yun Zhen naturally wanted to follow, but they hadn't seen the lanterns in the state city. So, everyone discussed, and set off for the state city today, and they can rest for a while when they get there. Moreover, Yun Xue also wanted to buy some things that Yun Zhen had set up with, and what was sold in the state city was always much better than those in the town here.
So, everyone hurried back to pack their things. Yun Xue changed her clothes, changed her clothes for Yun Xia, and brought another set. In addition, I brought a lot of money, so I was ready.
Yun Zhen and the others also changed into new clothes, and everyone walked out happily. Shen Hongjun came from the state city to drive the carriage this time, in order to pick them up. This carriage is quite large, three horses are used in front of it to pull the carriage, the carriage is very spacious, and the Yunxue sisters and brothers are sitting in it, but it is not too crowded. However, Yun Zhen was reluctant to sit inside, so he and Shen Hongjun rushed in front of them.
The carriage went very fast, and in the afternoon Shen Shizhong arrived in the state capital. Shen Hongjun drove the carriage, but did not go to the inn, but came to a house in the east of the city. As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate, many people came out of it and lined up to greet them.
"Childe, you're finally back. In the past two days, the officials of the state city have come to pay a visit, and the little ones are almost smiling stiffly in order to deal with them. When Shen Liang saw Shen Hongjun, he hurriedly smiled.
"Then don't laugh, you know that you are behaving in front of your son." Shen Zhong on the side despised Shen Liang fiercely.
Shen Fu on the other side kept a straight face, trying not to laugh. These three people have all grown up with Shen Hongjun since childhood, and their feelings are naturally unusual, and only the three of them dare to play tricks in front of Shen Hongjun.
"Is everything in the house packed?" Shen Hongjun glanced at the three of them, and he didn't have the same knowledge as them during the New Year.
"After packing up, Miss Han will live in Liuyun Pavilion, and a few little brothers will live in Tingfeng Pavilion." Shen Zhong stepped forward and said.
Shen Hongjun nodded, this is an industry of the Shen family, to be precise, it is his own industry, it is just another courtyard. He usually lives here when he comes to the state city. This time, they came over to pick up Yunxue, naturally they couldn't stay in the guest house, and it was more convenient to live here.
"Tell the kitchen, hurry up and make something delicious, we haven't eaten much along the way, Yunxia's little girl is afraid that she is hungry. Hurry up and arrange Miss Han and the others to go over, so that people can serve them well. Shen Hongjun commanded.
"Childe rest assured, this thing has been prepared for a long time." Shen Liang turned around and beckoned to the girls in the back, "Why don't you hurry over and wait?" ”
Those people hurriedly came to the carriage, and a girl just wanted to step forward to lift the curtain, but was glared at by Shen Hongjun. Frightened, she quickly flashed to the side.
Shen Hongjun stepped forward and lifted the curtain himself, and said inside, "Xue'er, we're here, I'll help you down." ”
Yun Xue had just heard the conversation outside, but she didn't know what was going on outside, so she stretched out her hand and helped Shen Hongjun's hand get out of the car. This came out, but it scared Yun Xue, why are there so many people outside? "Zhiyuan, what is this?"
"Don't worry about those who serve you." Shen Hongjun didn't have much expression on his face, he just held Yun Xue's hand.
Shen Liang hurriedly stabbed the mother-in-law on the side, and the mother-in-law stepped forward and took Yunxia from Yunni's hand. The other girl helped Yunni get out of the car.
As for Yun Ting, he didn't need to be helped by others, and jumped off by himself.
"Let's go, let's go into the house. This is one of my other courtyards, and there is no one living in it, and these servants are all serving here. If they are the one who does not serve them well, they do not need to be polite, or they will be beaten or punished by you, and there is no need to tolerate them. Shen Hongjun was still holding Yun Xue's hand, and the two of them stood side by side in front of these people.
"Listen up, Miss Han is the master here. You are waiting carefully one by one, and if any of you dares to have any crooked thoughts, watch out for your heads. Shen Hongjun said coldly.
The people in front of them knelt down a large number, "The slave has seen Miss Han." ”
Faced with such a scene, Yun Xue suddenly felt very awkward. What's going on? A lot of people just knelt in front of them, isn't this right?
"Zhiyuan, which one did you get here? Hurry up and let the family get up, on this cold day, kneeling on the ground, isn't it going to freeze out of the problem? Yun Xue was a little overwhelmed, she had never experienced such a scene at all.
"Get up, and go your own way." Shen Hongjun said to those people.
