The evening breeze is blowing.

Brushing the hair in the ears, it also tugs at the girl's heartstrings.

In the attic of the small courtyard, the dim light shines through the window, reflecting a graceful figure.

After Ma Shuyao entered the attic, he ran down the stairs all the way to the second floor.

On the soft couch by the window, Lin Wanqing sat cross-legged at the low table.

A cup of fragrant tea and a plate of preserved fruits on the low table.

Lin Wanqing held her cheeks in one hand and held the script in the other, reading it with relish.

In the end, it is a mother and daughter, this lazy and comfortable posture cannot be said to have nothing to do with Ma Shuyao in the afternoon, but can only be said to be exactly the same.

The entertainment activities of women in the Song Dynasty were countless times more than those in the Southern Song Dynasty and the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Especially in the city of Tokyo, even in late-night gambling houses, you can see many women.

However, Ikuto-gun is not as good as Tokyo City.

When it comes to the night of the Song Dynasty, many people will think of the city of Tokyo being brightly lit, singing and singing every night, and full of flowers.

However, there is only one in the city of Tokyo.

In other county towns and counties, curfews are still in place, and when the hour comes, all shops, tea shops and restaurants will close one after another.

For a widowed woman like Lin Wanqing, the only entertainment at night is to read a book.

"Yoyo is back."

Hearing the footsteps, Lin Wanqing turned her head slightly and asked casually, "Who was invited to the banquet at home today?" ”

Her temperament is like this, she doesn't like trivial things the most, and she doesn't like to socialize.

Ordinary guests at home, if it is not necessary, she will not go at all.

In contrast, she prefers to swing in the small courtyard, fly a kite, or recline on a soft couch and read a book.

"Please...... Husband. ”

Ma Shuyao subconsciously wanted to call the county magistrate, but as soon as the words came to his mouth, he suddenly realized that Han Zhen was already his husband, so he immediately changed his words.

"Clams?"

Lin Wanqing was stunned.

A trace of shyness flashed in Ma Shuyao's eyes, and the white and tender little hands subconsciously held the knife tightly.

It was only at this time that Lin Wanqing found that her daughter had an extra knife in her hand.

Lin Wanqing put down the notebook in her hand and asked with a blank face: "What husband?" ”

Seeing her mother's delicate appearance, Ma Shuyao pursed her lips and smiled: "Grandpa found me a husband's house." ”

"This ...... How could I not know such a big thing? Lin Wanqing looked surprised.

The daughter was promised, and she, a mother, didn't know it.

In fact, this matter was personally decided by Ma Yanmin, the head of the family, and Lin Wanqing had no right to speak even if she was her biological mother.

After all, this is a major matter related to the continuation of the Ma family.

Besides, Ma Shuyao was promised as a concubine, and she was not a wife, so she didn't have so many cumbersome etiquette.

Ma Shuyao said: "Didn't Grandpa call someone to invite A-Niang to the banquet in the evening, but A-Niang herself said that she was sick and didn't want to go." ”

“……”

Lin Wanqing was suddenly silent.

She thought it was just an ordinary banquet, so she excused herself from being sick.

After coming back to her senses, Lin Wanqing immediately asked, "Whose Langjun did you promise?" ”

"Auntie, guess."

Ma Shu smiled slyly.

Lin Wanqing pondered for a moment and said, "Han Zhen? ”

Since the Zhenzong period, after encountering a catastrophe, the Ma family has been extremely low-key and has never married a high-ranking family.

The marriage partners of the children in the clan are all innocent scholars.

Therefore, first of all, the big families in the city can be excluded, and it seems that Han Zhen is the only one who can make Ma Yanmin so anxious to settle his family.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but recall the absurd dream last night and the absurd things in the utility room.

And this person has now become his son-in-law.

This made Lin Wanqing feel ashamed and empty-hearted, and she felt shameless to face her daughter.

Seeing her uncertain expression, Ma Shuyao only said that she was not satisfied, so she stepped forward and asked cautiously, "A-Niang doesn't approve of this marriage?" ”

"Nope!"

Lin Wanqing shook her head, forcibly suppressed the shame in her heart, and said softly: "Then Han Zhen also met his mother yesterday, and he can be called a hero, marrying him as his wife, it is not a grievance against you." ”

Hearing this, Ma Shuyao's eyes flashed with a smile again, and explained: "It's not a wife, it's a concubine." ”

"How...... How is it a concubine? ”

Lin Wanqing was shocked, stood up suddenly, and muttered to herself: "No, my mother is going to find your grandfather!" ”

The concubine has no status, and can only be regarded as half a master in the family, and can be given away at will.

When Su Shi was in trouble, he gave all the concubines around him to a friend surnamed Liang.

Later, one of the concubines gave birth to a son, who is now the famous hidden Liang Shicheng.

"Auntie!"

Ma Shuyao hurriedly stopped her and persuaded: "Grandpa has his own considerations in this matter, and I am also willing." Whereas...... Moreover, just now at the banquet, I have already toasted the wine. ”

In the end, Ma Shuyao's voice became as thin as a mosquito's voice.

Lin Wanqing smiled bitterly: "Youyou, you are usually very smart, how can you be confused in the face of such a big thing." Once you become a concubine, how is it different from a maidservant? ”

Ma Shuyao leaned into her ear and said softly: "If it is allowed to ordinary people, it is naturally a concubine." But if it's the emperor, it's the concubine! ”

These words were almost clear, Lin Wanqing naturally understood, only to see her expression change slightly, and said sneeringly: "Weng Weng is so optimistic about him? ”

"Hmm!"

Ma Shuyao nodded.

Ma Yanmin's love for Ma Shuyao is no less than her.

Lin Wanqing knows this.

Since Ma Yanmin was so eager to give Youyou to Han Zhen as a concubine, it was naturally after careful consideration.

Lin Wanqing was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "The wood is already in the boat, and it can only be like this." ”

As she was talking, she suddenly noticed that the sachet that Ma Shuyao had been tying around her waist was gone.

Looking at the hand knife she had been holding, her heart suddenly became clear.

It's okay like this, although it is a concubine, but Han Zhen is a hidden dragon after all, and no one can say what he can achieve in the future.

If it really happens, then their Ma family will indeed make a lot of money.

The most important thing is that it seems that Yoyo is very fond of Han Zhen, and even gave away his favorite personal things.

When Lin Wanqing sat down again, Ma Shuyao sat cross-legged beside her, and said in a chattering voice: "A-Niang didn't know, when I just sent my husband out, I chatted for a while. found that the husband is actually very easy to get along with, not as vicious as he imagined. ”

Lin Wanqing quipped: "I don't know who it was, I was scared into a little quail yesterday." ”

Ma Shuyao picked up a preserved fruit and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Yesterday was not only me, didn't A-Niang also be scared by her husband." ”

"The husband on the left, the husband on the right, is not ashamed."

Lin Wanqing smiled again, reached out and gently squeezed her cheek.

"Hmm!"

Ma Shuyao snorted lightly, slapped away his mother's hand, and said angrily: "A-Niang, if you pinch it again, it will be swollen." ”

Lin Wanqing pursed her lips and smiled: "It's all promised to others, if you don't pinch it now, you won't have a chance in the future." ”

"My husband asked me to stay at home for a while longer, and when the situation is more stable, I will make a big deal to welcome me." Ma Shuyao rubbed his cheeks and explained.

"He loves you."

Lin Wanqing couldn't help but think of her husband.

But no matter how you think about it, the cheeks of her husband in my memory are always blurry......

……

……

Following.

Early in the morning of the first year of the freshman year, Han Zhen went out of the city and came to the military camp of the Wuwei Army.

In the barracks, 1,500 officers and men of the Qingzhou Army were ready to go.

This is a surprise attack, and it is important to travel lightly, so it is naturally impossible to carry a large amount of grain and grass.

Each person carried only three days' worth of dry rations, as well as a simple medical kit.

Other than that, there was nothing else, even the armor on his body was replaced with half-body iron armor.

Although the protection is reduced, it is more than twice as light as the heavy armor, and it can fully withstand rapid marches.

If you wear forty or fifty pounds of heavy armor, I am afraid that you will not be able to walk even twenty miles a day.

Standing on the school ground, looking around at the soldiers in front of him, Han Zhen said loudly: "This battle is the first time that my Qingzhou Army has shown its edge, can you be confident of winning it?" ”

"Yes!"

Fifteen hundred soldiers shouted at the top of their voices, and the momentum was astonishing.

These Qingzhou soldiers did not have the slightest fear on their faces, but their eyes were full of excitement.

At the moment, they have only one thought in their minds.

Kill the enemy and get a reward!

Looking at the high-spirited soldiers, Han Zhen nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "In this case, I will prepare wine, meat and reward money, and wait for your triumphant return!" ”

"Wansheng !!"

The deafening shouts rang out again, echoing over the barracks.

Retracting his gaze, Han Zhen turned his head to look at Nie Dong and admonished: "Although Zhang Wanxian's Dare Blazing Army is a rabble, you must not underestimate the enemy, you need to know that the lion fights the rabbit, and you also use all your strength!" ”

Strategically despise the enemy, tactically value the enemy!

"The last will be saved!"

Nie Dong's face was solemn.

Han Zhen moved his gaze to Shi Wenhui again, and said with a straight face: "You boast that you have the talent of the world, and now I will give you this opportunity." Whether it is a mediocre talent on paper, or a capable minister, it depends on this experience. ”

Shi Wenhui bowed down and thanked him affectionately and sincerely: "The county magistrate knows the kindness of the encounter, and the officials are grateful, and this time it will not be dishonored." ”

"Go!"

Han Zhen commanded.

Nie Dong nodded, and shouted with full of anger: "The whole army listens to the order and goes!" ”

Soon, under the leadership of Nie Dong, 1,500 soldiers quickly walked out of the barracks.

Han Zhen was about to leave, but saw the other soldiers in the barracks looking envious.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry, there is a time when you go into battle to kill the enemy." Practice hard during this time, don't you don't get military merits by then, but give your life first! ”

……

……

However, it was said that after Liu Qi led the cavalry battalion to set off yesterday, he caught up with the counterinsurgency army at noon on the second day.

It's not that Liu Qi and they are rushing day and night, after all, they are heavy cavalry, even if they are one person and four horses, the speed of the journey is not much faster.

The main reason is that the Wuwei army is walking too slowly.

Luo Sha and Yu Chaohuan didn't want to go out of the city to quell the rebellion at all, and it was really helpless to send troops this time.

The two of them thought like this, and the soldiers under him were no better, so the entire army from top to bottom had no intention of fighting.

An army that does not want to fight will naturally march slowly and drag it out as long as it can.

So much so that in a few days, he only walked less than sixty miles.

On the official road, a spy rode a war horse and galloped quickly to Liu Qi's side, and reported: "Battalion commander, the army is three miles ahead!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Qi ordered: "The whole army rests for a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, the armor is changed for horses!" ”

He wasn't sure if Luo Sha and Yu Chaohuan would obediently hand over the military power, and he had already prepared for the worst in his heart.

If the other party dares to resist, it will be suppressed by force.

Five hundred to 10,000, it seems to be a huge disparity, but in fact it is a one-sided massacre.

What is the concept of more than 500 elite heavy cavalry?

Liu Qi, who grew up in the border army since he was a child, knows it best.

Don't think that the number is very small, even in any border army in the northwest, there is no way to make such a heavy cavalry.

You must know that the power of the Western Xia country only barely managed to scrape together 3,000 iron harriers.

Although the number of Liao's Tielin Army is large, it can really be called elite, and there are only 10,000 people.
