Chapter 361: Homecoming

Xiao Mo walked over, smiled and said, "Yingbao, I can meet you anywhere, I don't stay at home in a good way, why did you come to Jingzhou again?" ”

"I'm here with the second senior brother." Sakura Treasure Road.

Zhang Min echoed on the side: "Little junior sister wants to help us defend Jingzhou, so she came with me." ”

Xiao Mo glanced at Zhang Min, didn't say anything more, turned around and spoke to Zhou Wuchang: "Master Zhou, Jingzhou has escaped from danger, it's time for us to go to Tokyo to help." ”

Master Zhou: "The city of Tokyo has become an empty city, and the saint has driven to Shudi, and it is meaningless for us to go to Tokyo at this time, and it will cost the people and money." ”

"The saint didn't go to Shu, it was the acting king who went to Shu."

Xiao Mo: "That Pei Tianshi was in the limelight in Beijing, and at this time, he actually gave the Holy Lord an idea, and asked the imperial court to send troops to recruit King Cheng, saying that King Cheng was going to rebel." ”

Zhou Wuchang sneered: "Pei Shixian didn't just say this, he also said that I, Zhou, am an accomplice of King Cheng." ”

Xiao Mo touched his nose, "The saint is not a mediocre person, how can he believe it all." ”

Zhou Wuchang smiled: "This is not accurate. Xiao Mo, if you want to go back to Beijing, you can go back by yourself, I have no position or power, I am just a monk, and I still don't get involved in your affairs. ”

This Xiao Mo is quite ambitious, and it is estimated that he wants to take this opportunity to do big things.

He has no intention of doing anything in the court, no matter who is the emperor of their Xiao family and Murong family, he is an idle cloud and wild crane, and he can go wherever he goes, but if they are not good for him, he also has a way to protect himself.

Xiao Mo thought for a while, "Then Master Zhou, can you hand over the people from the surrounding military camps to me?" The Jurchens have already surrounded the city of Tokyo, and the Taishi has sent a letter ordering me to wait for the escort of the Jingshi. ”

"The manpower of Juntun is not under my control, Commander Xiao should discuss this matter with Zhang Taishou."

Before Zhou Wuchang came to Jingzhou, he didn't bring any manpower, and only when he arrived at the boundary of Jingzhou did he contact the surrounding military tuns.

Many of the generals in these military cantonments were his former subordinates, so he was able to recruit one or two thousand people to come to the rescue in a short period of time.

Halfway through, he happened to meet Xiao Mo and Chu Yan's team again, so they came together.

Fortunately, thanks to their help, Jingzhou was saved.

Now Xiao Mo wants to borrow people to expand his team, Zhou Wuchang is unwilling, but thinking that those military tuns are from the imperial court, it is not easy for him to stop them.

Zhang Taishou actually had no control over those military tuns. The imperial court attaches great importance to literature and light on military force, but all military tuns belong to the mercenaries directly supervised by the imperial court, and they have no right to mobilize the strength of the military tun, which also causes a shortage of soldiers to defend the city.

Now Xiao Mo wants to use these military people, either they have the tiger talisman imperial order of the imperial court, or they have personal relations with the generals and pay a lot of money to hire them.

He has nothing, he can only rely on Zhou Wuchang's influence.

But in the end, Zhou Wuchang did not let go.

The reason was that these soldiers would stay in Jingzhou City to guard the city until the Jurchens returned to their hometown.

Ying Bao didn't know what the master and Xiao Mo had to discuss, so after returning to the room, she began to pack up her things and prepare to go home with the master.

After this incident, Zhang Min decided to stay in Jingzhou and be with his parents.

But Mrs. Zhang resolutely disagreed, and still let him leave with Zhou Wuchang.

Helpless, Zhang Min said goodbye to his parents and sisters in tears three days later.

This time, Sakura and his younger brother took a carriage, Master and Huzi took one, and the second senior brother and the eldest brother served as the coachmen of the two carriages.

It was already July, the weather was very hot, and Sakura and her brother were sweating profusely in the covered carriage.

So, Sakura took out a chilled peach from the cave and handed it to his younger brother.

Peaches are boiled in rock sugar and taste sweet and sour.

The second senior brother, who was sitting on the wheel to catch the car, suddenly turned his head to look at it and asked, "What are you eating?" I want it too. ”

Sakura had no choice but to take out a bowl of chilled peaches and give it to him.

Zhang Min ate with an ice drink, corrected the carriage from time to time, and returned to its previous appearance.

Huzi, who was sitting in the carriage in front of him, was hanging on the small window behind the carport, sticking out his head to see this scene, and couldn't help but shout: "You actually eat alone? ”

Turning his head to Zhou Wuchang, who closed his eyes and recuperated, he said, "Master, stop quickly, the three of them are eating alone in the back." ”

So, the two carriages stopped in an open field.

Huzi jumped out of the carriage and quickly ran to Sakura: "Sakura, what did you give them to eat?" I don't have a master. ”

Sakura turned around and took out three bowls of chilled peaches from the basket behind him, "Here, you and Senior Brother Master." ”

Huzi smiled happily and happily drove to the carriage in front of him with an ice bowl.

Zhang Min and Zhou Hao got out of the car to feed the horses and water, rested for a while, and then continued to hurry.

When encountering the county seat and the market town, the two cars went in to repair.

But there are a lot of homeless people along the way, and all of them are dragging their families with them.

Sometimes Zhou Wuchang would stop the car and talk to them.

When he learned that they had to flee due to the drought in his hometown, Zhou Wuchang asked Ying Bao how to get them out of trouble.

Where does Sakura know.

In this northern region, it basically depends on the sky for food.

Even if they are there, once the water is issued, it will be lost in half a year.

But the taxes of the imperial court will not be less at all, and they still have to be paid.

Zhou Wuxian didn't know what the little apprentice was, and he didn't ask again, turned around and got in the car and left.

They followed the official road, passed through countless villages and several cities, and finally returned to Qinchuan County in July.

The county town is now lively, and gorgeous carriages are often seen on the streets.

Sakura Bao was very curious, and when he returned to the shop, he asked Brother Lobby.

Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his cousins and cousins had returned, "Those are all fleeing from the capital, we can't provoke them." ”

Instead, he asked, "What's the matter with you?" Where did it go? The third uncle and the second uncle were in a hurry. ”

Ying Bao didn't dare to say what happened in Jingzhou, and said easily: "The second senior brother wants to go home to see, let's accompany him, why don't you come back now." Tell us how your home is going. ”

Jiang Chengdao: "The family is fine, Wei Zhan brought his mother here, and he lives in our village." There is also Mrs. Wen and her two children, who also live in our village. ”

In fact, they not only lived in these families in Dongchen Village, but also some families went to Nanpo and bought land to build houses at a high price, saying that they wanted to build individual courtyards.

However, that was all done by the people of Xichen Village, who sold their inferior fields on the southern slope to outsiders at a high price and let those people build houses.

"Mrs. Wen is here too?" Ying Bao was very happy to hear that Mrs. Wen and Sister Wen were here.

said to Jiang Wu and Huzi: "Let's go back tomorrow." ”

Tomorrow, Master and his two brothers will also return, and Master said that he will live in Dongchen Village for a while, and he will also learn to grow pepper and cotton from his father.

"Let's go in a few days, when Xiaojie Xiumu comes, you will be together." Jiang Chengdao.

Sakuraho: "Okay. ”

Jiang Cheng paused for a while, and quietly said to his little cousin: "Tell you something, my uncle died, and the little concubine went to my aunt to make a fuss and asked my aunt to give her money for burial." ”

Ying Bao twitched the corner of her eye: "What about my aunt?" Did she give money? ”

"I don't know, my aunt took Yuying Hongxiao and them to the wake today, and I don't think I will come back at night."

Jiang Cheng peeled an apple with a knife and handed it to his little cousin, and continued to peel the second one: "Zhang Yukun is also a bastard enough, he even thinks that his father is dead, and his mother should give the burial money." ”
