Chapter 424: You Count Me

Ge Guang was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't understand the lady's mind at all.

Looking at Feng Yun's smile, he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Is the lady angry?"

Feng Yun shook his head, thought for a moment, and slowly stood up with his chair.

"Prepare the car."

Ge Guang responded, didn't think about it anymore, and listened to the order to go out to set up the carriage, Xiaoman and the two servants were so nervous that their hearts hung up, they wanted to stop but didn't dare, and they were so anxious that they stammered.

"The lady's foot injury has not healed, and the king said it when he left...... You are not allowed to go out. What does the lady want to do, leave it to the servant to do...... Luckily? ”

"Not good." Feng Yun stood on tiptoe, "I'm in a car, and I don't walk, what are I afraid of?" Come and change my clothes. ”

Xiaoman hurriedly came over to support her, and Huan'er and Pei'er were even more frightened.

At this time, there was a burst of horses' hooves outside the village.

As soon as Feng Yun's was draped over his shoulders, Ge Guang ran back again.

"Lady, the king is back."

Feng Yun motioned for Xiao Man to help her out.

But in a blink of an eye, I saw Pei Ji riding into the village on snow and stopping in the yard.

He touched the head of the snow, a plain robe fluttered in the breeze, his face was calm, and when he turned around, he saw Feng Yun limping out of the service girl with a limp, and there was no change in his expression......

Feng Yun bowed slightly, "Why did the king come back so early?" ”

Pei Zhen's gaze fell on her.

Feng Yun smiled and looked back, but the servant girl beside her lowered her head in fright, not daring to take another look.

The eyes are facing each other.

For a long moment, Pei Yan did not speak.

Ji You next to him was anxious, and finally couldn't help it......

He laughed loudly: "Princess, today the king will enter the mountain before dawn. If you have a good harvest, come and take a look. ”

As he spoke, he saw that Zuo Zhong was late, leading the horse into the village, carrying several prey on the horse's back.

Feng Yun then remembered that Pei Zhen had said that when she was free, she would go into the mountains to hunt for her to make winter clothes.

In fact, the skins on the market are not expensive to collect from hunters. Even the best skin, with the financial resources of King Yonghuai and his wife, is not a problem.

Therefore, Feng Yun didn't take this matter to heart at all, thinking that Pei Yun was just saying it casually......

King Yonghuai has all the opportunities, where can he be idle?

She watched Zuo Zhong and Ji You lift their prey down and chuckled.

"Why didn't the king say that he wanted to enter the mountain?"

Pei Yan said: "I got up early, I'm afraid to wake you up." ”

As the voice fell, his gaze turned to the carriage that Ge Guang had set.

"Going out?"

Feng Yun hummed, frowned and told him about the robbery of the briquettes.

"I'm going to Stone Temple."

Xiao Man and the others turned their eyes to Pei Zhen, waiting for him to convince the lady.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yanjun's face condensed slightly, he didn't hesitate at all, touched the neck of the snow, and said:

"I'll go with you."

Pei Zhen is usually really busy, not to mention other people in Zhuangzi, even in Feng Yun's eyes, he is also a bit of a dragon who sees the head but does not see the end, goes out early and returns late, and often does not see people.

It can be said that this "under one person, above ten thousand" is not idle.

With great power comes great responsibility, and Feng Yun is also used to not interfering with each other and happily doing his own status quo......

This cold and cold went into the mountains to hunt and make winter clothes, and went out with her, she was a little uncomfortable.

"The king has something to do, so he is busy. I have a part, and Ye Chuang and they follow ......"

"I'm fine." Pei Yan asked Ji You to step on the snow to feed, and in front of everyone, he hugged Feng Yun by the waist, put him in the carriage, and then sat on it himself.

"Let's go."

Feng Yun was stunned and said softly, "Let's go." ”

-

The carriage slowly drove out of the village.

Feng Yun sat for a moment without hearing Pei Zhen's voice, looked sideways at him sitting straight, and said.

"I have to go this time, not willful, not heroic."

Others didn't understand her behavior, but she felt that Pei Zhen should understand.

"God is helping me, I can't ruin the whole plan just because I broke my foot."

Pei Zhen looked sideways, his gaze was deep and gentle: "Understood." ”

She went, and Nagato's anxiety about losing the briquettes was more convincing.

Feng Yun was encouraged, breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly lay on his back on the wall of the carriage, hooking the corners of his mouth.

"Li Zongxun really can't hold his breath."

Pei Yan stared back at her, "Yun Niang's clever plan." ”

Feng Yun actually didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and smiled.

"It's all up to the king."

If there is no Pei Zhen's approval, then even if Ren Rude has any way, it will be impossible to transport the briquettes......

"Of course, I was also forced to be in a hurry, and there was no other way......

Pei Zhen stared at her.

For a long time, he pinched her arm and pulled her over and leaned on her arms.

"Don't work so hard in the future."

The gentle and low voice is the most intoxicating.

Feng Yun hummed, "I'm measured." ”

Pei Zhen looked at her quietly and didn't say anything more.

-

When Feng Yun and Pei Zhen arrived at Shiguan, Hou Zhun happened to come back with a group of subordinates.

met at the city gate, and the subordinates saw that Feng Yun was injured and came over in person, they were guilty and helpless, with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, looking depressed.

Feng Yun didn't have any expression, only asked Hou Zhun.

"Are there any casualties?"

Hou Zhun's eyes flickered and apologized in public.

"The enemy is outnumbered and prepared. The subordinates remembered the princess's explanation, and at the critical time, they gave up their wealth and their lives, and ran away with their brothers, and several brothers were injured, but no one died......"

He hesitated and said: "When a bandit meets a bandit, he has the trust of the princess. ”

Feng Yun's eyes swept over everyone and said lightly.

"It's just a batch of briquettes, and Nagato can afford to lose. As long as everyone is okay, I have peace of mind. ”

The tone of this expression was as if she had made a special trip to Shiguan, not for the briquette to be robbed, but just to care about them.

Hou Zhun's fingers tightened slightly, and he said a few words of apology, which allowed the subordinates to drive back to Huaxi.

He didn't go.

With two guards, he followed Pei Zhen and Feng Yun all the way to the camp of the Red Armor Army.

Only then did he say to Feng Yun in a low voice:

"Fortunately, I was not dishonored. Is the lady okay with a foot injury? ”

Feng Yun glanced down at his injured foot, then looked at Hou Zhun's expression, and smiled.

"Foot injuries are real."

-

Ao Qi came back at nightfall.

The camp had just held the lamp, and when he saw the two people sitting in the hall, he was slightly stunned before he stepped forward to salute, and then frowned and said:

"The Yecheng army has withdrawn from Wenchang Palace and retreated to Hualiping ......"

He looked a little tired, and glanced at Feng Yun with a slight guilt.

"The battle was won, but the briquettes couldn't be recovered."

"If the briquettes are gone, they are gone, it's good to win the battle, Xiao Qi is hard, hurry up and go to pad his stomach, change his clothes, and let's talk again."

Since last night's departure, until now, Ao Qi has gnawed half of the bun, and he is indeed tired, hungry and thirsty at the moment, he hugged Pei Qi when he heard the sound.

"The king will sit for a while, and the end will be absent for a moment."

Pei Yun hummed, didn't say much, just looked at Feng Yun's gaze, and became a little more and more cold......

He didn't speak the whole time, and waited until there was no one in the hall before he said:

"How many briquettes were robbed?"

Feng Yun might as well ask him.

After a pause, she said, "Not much." ”

Pei Yan said: "Yun Niang, you are very bold this time. ”

Feng Yun looked into his eyes, "I've thought about it, and the briquette fraud is the most critical part of this plan. First, I was reluctant to send fuel to the enemy in the winter. Second, only if Li Zongxun robbed a fake, he would not be clear in front of Zheng Shoushan. Even if he wants to ease the situation, he can't really compensate him, which will further anger Zheng Shoushan......"

-

Tangzhou, Shangtang City.

Li Zongxun sat in the hall with an expressionless face and drank tea, the tea in the stove was boiling and gurgling.

The room was warm, not the slightest bit of cold.

Half an hour ago, a subordinate came to report that the Yecheng army was defeated by the Ao Qi Red Armor Army and retreated to Hualiping to rest.

After losing the battle, Prime Minister Li Cheng was unusual, without half a word of blame, and the whole person seemed to be in a good mood.

The subordinate is the second monk who is confused, and Tang Shaogong is like a mirror.

"This battle has frustrated the enemy's spirit, although the defeat is still glorious, the next step is to prepare for the winter, the prime minister is not ready to fight with the Beiyong army again, right?"

Li Zongxun snorted, looked at him and said, "Shaogong still understands me." ”

Since he easily filled the treasury in Yecheng by selling officials, this Prime Minister Li Cheng has tasted the sweetness of getting something for nothing......

It's better to buy briquettes than to grab them.

On the one hand, Zheng Shoushan went around the bend to buy.

On the one hand, people pretend to be bandits to rob.

Kill two birds with one stone.

As for this battle, it is just to send men and horses to cover people's eyes......

In the final analysis, with Yecheng's current strength, Li Zongxun is very clear that he is not sure that he will fight to the death with Xijing.

He has always pursued Taoguang and cultivating obscurity, how could he be messed up at this juncture?

So, he didn't really want to fight.

Tang Shaogong looked at his smug expression and lowered his eyes.

"Then this batch of briquettes is going to be sent to Chuzhou? Prime Minister, Yecheng needs graphite and briquettes more than Chuzhou......"

Li Zongxun frowned slightly, "There is a shortage in Yecheng, but you can talk to Zheng Shoushan in advance, if you don't give it to him, you can't say it......"

Tang Shaogong's eyes were dark, but his voice was faint.

"With the intention of his subordinates, he can discuss with Gong Zheng and allocate some to Yecheng. Anyway, the number is so huge, it should be no problem to survive the winter......"

Li Zongxun held the teacup and before he could speak, a scout trotted over, looking in a hurry, kneeling on one knee and clenching his fists to report.

"Prime Minister, it's not good......"

Li Zongxun reprimanded, "What are you panicking about? What happened? ”

The scout raised his eyes, "Those briquettes, not briquettes......"

Li Zongxun's eyes widened when he heard this, and he stood up suddenly.

"What do you say? Say it again! ”

The scout's tone was full of nervousness, "The briquettes we loot are mixed with the slag of stones that have been poured with ink...... Only the surface of the box has a layer of real briquettes......"

Ink-poured stone slag?

Zheng Shoushan's batch of goods includes finished briquettes and semi-finished graphite.

After the stone slag was poured with ink, it was black and black, which was somewhat similar to graphite......

"How can it be!" Li Zongxun's face changed drastically, and he was immediately furious.

"Feng Twelve Niang's intentions are vicious!"

With a snap, the teacup was swept to the ground by him and torn apart.

Tang Shaogong glanced at it silently, squatted down to pick up the fragments, word by word, and calmly comforted.

The prime minister was angry. The top priority is to tell Zheng Gong about this, so that he doesn't feel suspicious......"

Li Zongxun's chest rose and fell in anger, and after being reminded by him, he slowly calmed down and closed his eyes.

"Do you say it's Feng Shi Niang's mixed stone slag, or are the gang in Hualiping fooling the old man?"

Tang Shaogong hesitated, "It's all possible." ”

Said as if not said. Li Zongxun looked at it dissatisfied, Tang Shaogong pursed the corners of his mouth, and said: "Changmen's business has a good reputation, but I'm afraid that Zheng Gong's side will find it difficult to accept Feng Shiniang's statement that he sells fake coal?" (End of chapter)
