Seeing that her sister didn't say anything, Xia Zhiqing didn't ask.

But with what Xia Zhining said, Xia Zhiqing talked about leaving.

But when it came to leaving, Xia Zhiqing suddenly had a strange feeling in her heart, that is, she was a little reluctant to leave.

If there were other relatives alive, she would definitely not have this kind of emotion and would leave immediately.

But their parents are no longer alive, they have no blood relatives, and they are like duckweed in this world, although my father still has many friends and students, and I can go to them for refuge.

But my father's friends and students are not very familiar with each other.

Therefore, after adapting to the life of Pingting County, and living a good life, eating and drinking without worry, and being satisfied with some things that people want to do, Xia Zhiqing really doesn't think that she will live well in a strange place.

As for the issue of freedom, Chen Mo didn't restrict her freedom too much, allowing her to move around the city freely, but she didn't go out for a walk herself.

Thinking about it carefully, Xia Zhiqing actually had a feeling in her heart that Chen Mo was not bad about herself.

The only thing that makes her unhappy is the hatred between her sister and Chen Mo, as well as the relationship between the three of them.

Of course, it was precisely because of this relationship that his innocence was given to him, and he was obsessed twice, which made him feel a sense of "dependence" on Chen Mo.

But this feeling, she herself is not aware of yet.

But if she doesn't leave, Xia Zhiqing can't find a reason to convince herself, and what will this make the other party think.

I'll take you all that, and now let you leave and you won't leave, isn't it cheap?

Or do you like to be me?

After having the joy of fish and water, some of Xia Zhiqing's thoughts have also become richer.

In the end, Xia Zhiqing told Xia Zhining to leave tomorrow on the grounds that it was late today, and the latter nodded after being silent for a long time.

By tomorrow, the two of them had packed their things.

But the things they want to carry are more than Xia Zhiqing, a guzheng, pipa and some books, Xia Zhining is much simpler, some clothes to wear, a sword, and a few military books are gone.

These things can be cleaned up in one morning, but the two of them have not finished cleaning up for a day.

So the two girls agreed that they would leave the next day.

Soon, the next day arrived, and the two women's things were packed, but they didn't mean to leave.

Xia Zhiqing said: "Zhining, we need a carriage, although there are not many things, but the guzheng and pipa occupy the space, if there is no carriage, it will be too troublesome for us to take it."

Also, we have to inform Liu to protect them. ”

"I think so too." Xia Zhining nodded, and then said, "I'll go find that bastard and ask for a carriage." ”

Xia Zhining didn't see Chen Mo, but Chen Mo replied to her words through Sun Meng, and for the sake of the relationship between the two, she was allowed to give her a carriage and gave her some food to eat on the road.

Xia Zhining knew that the other party deliberately didn't see her, but listening to the meaning of Sun Meng's words, it made her regret it even more.

The carriage was on time in the morning, but Xia Zhining didn't return to the wing until the afternoon, so the day was over again, and she decided to leave tomorrow.

In addition, Xia Zhiqing also said: "Escort Liu is willing to leave with us, and the other guards choose to stay in Pingting County." ”

Unfortunately, on July 25, it rained, and it was quite heavy.

The two daughters did not leave for some reason.

But the two girls were relieved in their hearts.

On July 26, the rain did not stop.

On July 27, the rain stopped, but Xia Zhining waited for two days of sun and the sky was clear before leaving, and Xia Zhiqing agreed.

So far, the two girls have not seen Chen Mo again.

The weather was sunny for two days.

But it's just such a coincidence.

Xia Zhining told her sister that the horse was thin and weak, and if she didn't change the horse, she would have to wait for the horse to get better before leaving.

Both of them tacitly agreed to wait for the horse to be well before leaving.

At the same time, in the back kitchen.

One cook asked another, "Strange, where is the croton I put here?" ”

Another cook replied: "I didn't move, but when I was resting last night, I saw that Mrs. Xia came." ”

“……”

This delay is on the last day of July.

The army is going out tomorrow, so the atmosphere in the city has become a little anxious today.

Chen Mo asked Geng Songfu to stay in Pingting County, and Lu Yuan, Su Wen, and Zhang He stayed to assist.

It is worth mentioning that Wei Qing and Lin Shengcai went back to Wutai County, Gaozhou, and told Li Yunzhang about the situation here.

In addition, Yuan Youchun's side symbolically allocated 300 stone of grain to Chen Mo.

It must be known that an army of 10,000 people consumes 200 stone of grain per day. (The reference here is to the account of the Taibai Yin Sutra.) "An army of 12,500 people, two liters of rice per day, six buckets in a month, seven stones and two buckets in a year, and an army in one day and two hundred and fifty stones in a day." ）

It stands to reason that Chen Mo sent 2,000 troops, and these 300 stone grain can be used for half a month.

But when Chen Mo inspected the grain, he found that there was a lot of sand and dust mixed with the 300 stone grain, and the actual grain was not 100 stone.

This amount of food is only enough for five days.

And the Guangda army arrived in Quanyang County, it would take two or three days, and then the siege of the city did not know how long, and whether it would fight other counties after that, it was not yet known.

Therefore, Yuan Youchun's 100 stone grain is purely to send beggars.

But the grain officer sent by Yuan Youchun said that he didn't know.

Chen Mo hurriedly sent a fast horse to tell Yuan Youchun about this, but the other party refused to admit it, and said that Chen Mo framed him, and if there was sand, it was also mixed up by Chen Mo himself.

Yes, Chen Mo knew that he was playing with himself, even if he grabbed his docking officer, it was useless, so he let it go.

As a result, the grain officer died violently that night.

……

In the wings.

The two sisters looked at each other for a long time, and finally Xia Zhining spoke first, and said: "Sister, tomorrow that bastard will go south to fight, this army is in chaos, I am afraid it will not be so easy for us to go to Jiangnan, in my opinion, it is better to wait. Let's not go until the war is over.

Didn't that bastard also say that he could let us leave after the fall. ”

Xia Zhining thought that her sister would not agree, and she thought of a bunch of excuses to refute in her mind, but Xia Zhiqing didn't hesitate for long before agreeing: "It's okay, it's really not suitable for hurrying." ”

The dim light shone on the pearl necklace around Xia Zhining's neck, setting off Xia Zhining's snow-white skin.

She clenched her fist and released it, clenched it again, and went back and forth a few times, Xia Zhining plucked up her courage, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice: "Sister, I have thought about it carefully, I want to go to the battlefield."

Sister, don't worry, I don't participate in killing, I just go and see, after all, no matter how much I read, it's better to see it with my own eyes, and sister, you also know my ambitions."
