Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Journey
Beijing City, Shen Li's mansion, Shen Li is urging his entourage to quickly pack up and salute. Three days have passed since His Majesty asked him to set off, and in the past few days, he has been mediating with all parties and obtaining food, and finally gathered the food today. He immediately urged his entourage to pack their luggage and prepare to leave.
Just when Shen Li was urging his subordinates, he suddenly heard that Zhang Yun had brought Xu Chengye to visit, and he wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, these two people wanted to go to Shandong with him, so they had to call their subordinates to call them in.
Zhang Yun, who was outside the door, followed his subordinates in after hearing the words of his subordinates. After Zhang Yun entered Shen Li's mansion, he couldn't help but look around at his mansion. This is a two-courtyard house, no matter how Shen Li is also a servant of the ministry, this is one of the best characters among the six. It is estimated that a six-rank official with a little bit of power has more money than him.
Zhang Yun was taken straight to the living room, and saw Shen Li wearing a white robe, with a beard, and a look of arrogance, giving people a feeling of fairy wind and bones.
After Zhang Yun and Xu Chengye walked in, they immediately saluted Shen Li, Shen Li didn't speak, just looked at the two quietly, and when the two saw that Shen Li didn't speak, they were also embarrassed, and the scene suddenly fell into a stalemate.
After a long time, Shen Li slowly spoke: "What are you two looking for me?" Are you two ready to go? ”
Zhang Yun arched his hand and said, "My lord, the two of us are ready, just wait for your lordship to give orders." Xu Chengye on the side had to nod vigorously.
After hearing this, Shen Li said with a smile: "Since you are ready, let's go back and prepare to go." ”
Zhang Yun was speechless for a moment, doesn't this person have a little emotional intelligence? How did you do it as an official of the third grade, according to the inner complaint, Zhang Yun said with a smile: "My lord, we are here to ask the adult, do you know who is behind the profiteers who hoard goods?" "The biggest obstacle to going to Shandong is probably the rich businessmen who hoard grain, if they can let them bleed, this disaster relief will be half successful, but these people are very powerful in the capital. Even when Zhang Juzheng was in power, he had to take care of them.
When Shen Li heard this, he sneered and said, "What? Scared? If you're afraid, you can not go now, I will not force it. Then he gave a gesture of please, signaling Zhang Yun to go out immediately.
When Zhang Yun heard this, he hurriedly explained: "My lord, of course I'm not afraid, I just asked Lord Shen to prepare in advance, don't be cheated by profiteers." I have a clever plan to solve the food shortage. ”
When Shen Li heard this, he also looked at Zhang Yun with interest, Zhang Yun saw him take the bait, walked to his side and whispered, the more Shen Li listened, the more excited he became, and said Finally, Shen Li jumped up, blushed and said: "Okay, good, your plan is just a cure, those profiteers." Xu Chengye was left alone, and he was confused.
On the way back, Xu Chengye, who looked puzzled, asked Zhang Yun and Shen Li what they said, Zhang Yun looked at him, chuckled, and did not answer him directly, only heard him mutter: "Let the bullets fly for a while." ”
In the afternoon of the same day, on the outskirts of Beijing, Zhang Yun and his party were ready to set off, and the outside were all people who came to see each other off. The people who came to send it were almost all friends of Xu Chengye and Zhang Yun.
Du Siniang looked at Xu Chengye affectionately, and said softly reluctantly: "Little grandfather, you have to take good care of yourself when you go over there, remember to eat on time, and don't have conflicts with others, if you encounter danger, remember to protect yourself......"
Zhang Yun, who heard it on the side, couldn't help but secretly slander himself: "Those who know think it's a lover's farewell, and those who don't know think it's a mother and son parting." ”
Xu Chengye also said with a smile: "Don't call me little grandfather, it's weird, you just call me Chengye, thank you Shi Niang for your concern, don't worry, I will be the first to see you when I come back." It caused everyone to burst into laughter.
Feng Yue looked at Du Shi Niang, who said goodbye to Xu Chengye, turned her head, lowered her head, fiddled with the corners of her skirt with her hand, and said to Zhang Yun: "Son, you have to come back safely, Yue'er is waiting for you to come back." ”
Zhang Yun nodded in agreement, and touched Feng Yue's head with a smile.
After saying goodbye to the others, Zhang Yun turned his head to Zhang Jingxiu and said with a smile: "Brother, don't you have anything to say to me?" ”
Zhang Jingxiu took a step back, arched his hand at Zhang Yun and said, "Congratulations to my brother, junior brother, you will make another miraculous feat and return safely." ”
Zhang Yun smiled and gave Zhang Jingxiu a big hug, and then nodded to greet Shen Li, after Shen Li got the news, he waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!" ”
The whole team took the food and set off in a mighty way. In addition to Xu Chengye's Shenji Battalion, there were also 3,000 battalions of cavalry, responsible for escorting food and protecting Zhang Yun and others.
Shen Li saw the victims along the way, and his heart was very painful, and he couldn't help but sigh: "The parents and officials in a place are incompetent, and the people are affected." ”
Zhang Yun also smiled on the side and echoed: "What the adults said is that if the adults are in charge of Shandong, it will be much better than that Lu Shude." ”
Shen Li heard the sound of Zhang Yun's words, squinted at Zhang Yun, and saw that Zhang Yun felt furious in his heart.
In this way, Zhang Yun and others finally arrived at the boundary of Shandong after a few days of slow implementation, Zhang Yun proposed to rest first, Shen Li felt that the disaster was urgent, and immediately prepared to take people to Jinan.
Zhang Yun couldn't help muttering in his heart: "You still know that the disaster situation is urgent, I don't know who sees the victims on the road, they have to stop and help them, otherwise it is estimated that they would have arrived in Shandong a long time ago." ”
Shen Li also felt that he had been delayed on the road for too long, and it was not easy to force Zhang Yun and the others. So, let Zhang Yun stay here to rest and wait for tomorrow to meet him.
After Zhang Yun heard Shen Li's words, he thought about it in his heart. "Since I'm out of the army, what am I going to do back?"
Zhang Yun immediately pleaded to Shen Li: "My lord, if you don't go to Jinan, I will go to Dengzhou Mansion for disaster relief, so that the disaster situation can be quickly stabilized." ”
As soon as Shen Li heard that Zhang Yun was going to divide his troops with him, and heard that he was going to Dengzhou Mansion, he instantly understood his ghost idea, looked at him meaningfully, and nodded.
Zhang Yun was afraid that others would not have enough manpower, so he asked the Shenji Battalion to give 500 people to Shen Li, and Xu Chengye, the thousand president, naturally followed Shen Li to Jinan.
After Xu Chengye and Zhang Yun embraced, they followed Shen Li and immediately galloped towards Jinan Mansion. Zhang Yun took Han Cheng and Zhao Hu's Shenji Battalion soldiers and rested in place. Han Cheng and Zhao Hu haven't seen each other for many days, and the brothers are very enthusiastic when they see each other. Zhang Yun ordered all the brothers to rest in place and set off again tomorrow.
At night, Zhao Hu asked puzzledly: "My lord, why don't we go to Jinan to Dengzhou?" ”
Zhang Yun patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said softly, "You'll know tomorrow." ”
Shandong, Dengzhou Mansion, a mansion is brightly lit, one of them is about 50 years old, is sitting in the hall, if you look closely, he is wearing a first-class, second-grade military general, only qualified to wear a lion pattern official uniform. He looked at the young man who walked in, and asked with a smile, "Have they arrived at the boundary of Shandong?" ”
