Man is beautiful in trouble, verse 158
Huan Qi's eyes were slightly heavy, he had never been considerate and gentle, so he pulled Wei Ji back and held her hand tighter. Just now when he talked about marriage, he pondered for a moment and said: "This trip to the north will take at least half a year, or at most two or three years, and when Luoyang is defeated, my father will personally go to Jiangxia to discuss marriage." โ
Wei Ji couldn't help but be surprised, the Huan family is actually the head of the four surnames, no matter whether Langjun is a girl, she only marries with Gaomen, before Huan Qi asked to marry, but all of them were hot, and there was no old man of the Huan family at all, at this moment I heard that Huan Wen actually agreed to the conditions. She blurted out, "How is that possible?"
Huan Qi laughed, and quickly kissed her on the mouth, "For you, I will take Luoyang down even if I risk my life."
Wei Jiao's eyelashes twitched, and she didn't open her mouth yet. Listen to Huan Qidao again, "How is it, do you remember me?"
Hearing this, Wei Ji glanced at him, and the little intention in his heart disappeared without a trace. In her previous life, she was far away in Huiji, and she knew a little about the situation of the Northern Expedition. Wei Ji now knows that things in the world are not immutable, and there is such a variable as Huan Qi that has never existed in her previous life, and she doesn't dare to assert what will happen.
"It's still life-threatening, if you can't capture Luoyang, you don't need to take any risks." She raised her eyes and said.
Huan Qi raised his eyebrows, "You can't believe my ability Fu Jian is indeed brave and good at soldiers, but now that he is old and seriously ill, there is a way to take advantage of his illness to kill him, now is the best time for the Northern Expedition, you just watch." โ
He said a few words about the use of soldiers, Wei Ji only understood a little bit and didn't respond much, Huan Qi was still happy. Just because her life was at stake, he heard a little worried and concerned.
In the end, it was late in the day, and he left.
Coming out of the courtyard, the attendant Long'er saw that Huan Qi's mood was very different, and he was secretly surprised. Huan Qi spoke for a while, in good spirits, thinking that there were still a few official duties waiting to be cooked, and walked to the study. When I walked through the courtyard, I saw another courtyard with lights on, and I looked twice.
Long'er said: "It's the Huang lady, I heard that she is still packing things." โ
Huan Qi looked away lightly. Whether Pei Lan chooses to go home, or Huang Zhiyin chooses to go to Jiangzhou, what they consider is clear in his heart, don't look at Pei Lan's sincere crying, looking like he wants to break his liver and intestines, but in fact, he sees that there is no more benefit here, and he will leave if there is a way out. And Huang Zhiyin has been making trouble all day long, and she wants to fight for favor, she may not have much true affection for him, but she values the family and power behind him, and now she refuses to go home, also because the Huang family wants to change her nationality and set a product.
He is used to seeing those women's methods, whether they are coquettish and stupid, or tender like water, they are just appearances, and there are a lot of calculations behind the scenes. And Yudu treats him, although he used to be regarded as a brother, that concern is real, whether he is the Langjun of the Wei family or the Huan family, and what is his position of power. When he was called to go with Yin Hao, she tried to persuade him not to go, and begged him to bring his heart goggles. Don't look at the cold face from time to time now, but when it comes to the safety of her life, she still thinks about him, and Huan Qinian has a warm heart in her heart.
I didn't sleep until late at night, and on the second day, Huan Qi got up early to practice martial arts, called the servants to call Wei Ji, and took her to meet a few staff documents. These were all summoned from Jiangzhou, and Wei Ji knew that in the past few years, Huan Qi has gathered a lot of talents, including after the small scholar clan, there are also poor scribes. Wei Ji said that she was here to help, and on the first day, she followed and wrote down some food, grass, armor and other materials.
She sat in the study, separated by a screen, and could hear the voices outside, but no one outside could easily see her. Several other staff members are all good at doing things, but Huan Qi loves his younger brother and doesn't come to disturb, and he is polite if he has something to say.
Wei Ji listened to the movement of the study all day, and then knew that it was not easy to march, the Huan family mobilized most of the military horses of the eight states, and if they wanted to go north, it was necessary to use the army, and the general of the auxiliary country had been ordered to camp troops by the Yellow River. There is a thick pile of letters exchanged in the daily military newspapers. Wei Ji also saw Huan Qi's resolute behavior when handling official duties.
On this day, Huan Qi went to the nearest camp and did not return until the evening. Wei Ji was lying at the desk for a day, and was coming out of the study, and the two bumped into each other in front of the door. Huan Qi took her back to eat, he thought about things, his eyebrows were tight, and he didn't speak when he ate, until he finished eating, he asked, "Are you tired?"
Wei Ji shook her head lightly and said, "Fortunately, it turns out that the transfer of troops is so troublesome, and the consumption of grain and grass is also amazing. โ
Huan Qi said: "What is this, at least it is still on its own territory, and it will be more troublesome to wait until it reaches the north." โ
Seeing Wei Ji looking over, her eyes were bright and moist like grapes, and she listened carefully, Huan Qi was happy, so he told her some interesting stories about the march.
Wei Ji brought up two things that he encountered today, and the military supplies did not arrive on time.
Huan Qi snorted when he heard this: "You don't have to worry about these things, the people who are in charge of things are all Huan Xi's people." โ
Wei Ji immediately understood, and said secretly: It was Huan Wen who sent troops to reuse Huan Qi this time, and only arranged an errand for the prince to transport materials. Clear-eyed people can know which is more important at a glance, but the mother of the prince Huan Xi is the eldest princess of Nankang, even if Huan Wen intends to change the son, he can't do it immediately. His plan is to let Huan Qi take over the army on this Northern Expedition, increase his military achievements, and stabilize his position so that he can slowly think about changing the son of the world when he comes back.
The people of Huan Xi's family also know this, and they dare not obstruct the major transfer of troops, but they delay a lot in small matters.
Huan Qi asked people to call He Hanzhi over and whispered a few words.
He Hanzhi walked away in a lively manner, and Wei Ji was very curious.
Huan Qi turned around and said with a smile: "I want to know what he went to do"
Wei Ji nodded.
"It's nothing, just go and pull out those two procrastinators and refuse to do things and whip them a few times."
Wei Ji was taken aback, "They are all subordinate officials of the Assassin's Mansion. โ
Huan Qi sneered: "It's just a few things that don't know the overall situation, I think it doesn't matter if I mistake some bows and arrows and armor, it hurts the morale of the army, just whip two, and beating other selfish ones is already to give face to Huanxi, otherwise killing two sacrificial flags will increase morale." โ
He blurted out, suddenly thinking that it was not appropriate to mention killing, and then looked at Wei Ji's expression a little surprised, but he was not frightened, he wiped his chin and said: "I'm not afraid, I don't feel afraid"
Wei Ji almost rolled her eyes.
On the second day, she knew that Huan Qi said that a few whips would beat people to death, He Hanzhi watched the guards beat, and shouted out the amount of silver money that the two of them were greedy for. There was a lot of discussion in Jingzhou City, and no one dared to say that Huan Qi was not. Huan Xi made a lot of fire at home, but he still pretended to be okay to the outside world.
Huan Qi was busy with official business and went to live in the camp for a few days.
On this day, he hurried home with the guards, and went straight to the courtyard of the guards, dusty and solemn. He stared at Wei Ji for a moment, and then told the servant maid to hurry up and pack up the salute.
Shi Zhu and Kong Qing went to the inner house without saying a word. Huan Qi said in a loud voice: "Dress simply, just bring a few clothes." โ
Seeing that he was dressed in a samurai uniform and wearing light armor, Wei Ji asked, "Where are you going?"
Huan Qi came closer, pulled her up, and said, "I'm unsure about leaving you here, so I can only take it with me." โ
The author has something to say:
Chapter 246: Chapter 245: Parting
The meaning of the obedient words was that she was going to take her with her when she sent out the army, Wei Ji was dumbfounded, and shook her head busily, "I'm not going."
I know my own affairs, If she is allowed to write, draw, and do some paperwork, and follow the action of the army, it is the old birthday star who eats โกโก - living impatiently.
Huan Qi saw that her little face turned white, Lang Lang laughed out loud and said, "What are you afraid of, with me, who dares to touch you." โ
Wei Ji struggled a few times and didn't break free of his hand, and said angrily: "Who can take care of the two armies fighting, you have three heads and six arms"
Huan Qiyi smiled lazily: "If you can't beat it, then life and death are in one place, life is the same, death is the same hole, and it is also with my mind, what do you think?"
With a smile on her face, Wei Ji then thought that Huan Wen was very strict in governing the army, and the Northern Expedition was the top priority of the Huan family and the imperial court, and she would never let women stay in the camp. She blinked, snorted, and didn't bother to answer him.
Huan Qi teased her twice, and when he saw that she was not fooled, he said with a straight face: "I have fallen in front of Huan Xi several times these days, and the people who followed him were scared, and this feud must have been settled." Huan Xizhi is talented and sparse, so there is no need to worry, but if he fights the small one and pulls out the old one, he must not guard against the old woman of Nankang. โ
Wei Ji heard him call Huan Xi's name several times, and he didn't have a good word for the eldest princess of Nankang, knowing that the two parties were actually incompatible, but Huan Wen was there, and he pretended to be a brother and a harmonious brother to the outside world. Her heart jumped suddenly, and she said, "If I fight with you, she will count it on my head."
Huan Qi stroked her face and said with a smile: "Now who doesn't know that I love you the most as a brother." โ
He left halfway through the previous banquet in the Assassin's Mansion, and he still leaked some rumors about the conflict between Wei Ji and Huan Xin, and there was everything outside. And Huan Qi went from Jiangzhou to Jiankang to Jingzhou, and he has always had Wei Ji by his side, but he has not married a wife at his age, and his relationship with Sima Weng has failed, and there are many conjectures from people outside. There is also the contribution of the eldest princess of Nankang.
Huan Qi didn't care at all after hearing about it, but he couldn't let go of Wei Ji in his heart.
Wei Ji glanced at him, "I'll go back to Jiangxia." โ
Huan Qi raised her chin, looked straight at her, but didn't say anything, took the person into his arms again, hugged her heavily, lowered his head and kissed her on the head.
At this time, the two maidservants came out of the inner room, and when they saw this scene, they immediately blushed.
Huan Qi let go of Wei Ji and asked the two maids to take out the arranged salute, he looked through it roughly, and removed a few daily things, and let people come in and take the baggage and leave. Turning his face to Wei Ji, he explained, "It's the same if these are added to the ground." โ
"Where the hell are you going?" Wei Ji wondered.
Huan Qi pulled her out of the door, and Kong Qing and Shi Zhu quickly caught up. Huan Qi turned around and said lightly: "You don't have to follow, take a good look at the hospital." โ
When I arrived at the door, there were many guards, all wearing armor, and there was a baggage carriage behind them, looking like they were about to travel far. Wei Ji gasped, just now she thought Huan Qi was joking, but she didn't expect to take her with the army.
Huan Qi watched her board the carriage and said, "Go to Zhangkou first to settle you, don't be afraid, it's safe there." โ
The array in front of the door was full of Huan Qi's own soldiers, loyal, and no one dared to take a look at Huan Qi and Wei Ji when they saw Huan Qi talking to Wei Ji. Waiting for Huan Qi to close the carriage door, he turned to the front. The soldier brought a tall horse over, he turned on his horse, gave an order, and set off immediately.
Wei Ji sat in the carriage, which was light and cramped enough to accommodate only one person, and although it had been cushioned beforehand, it was still bumpy and shaky as it went. Wei Ji felt a little dizzy after sitting for a while, and changed her position to lie down.
Huan Qi took his soldiers to the camp outside the city, rested for the night, and led the troops to start the next day.
All the way, Wei Ji rarely got out of the carriage, and only came down to rest when he set up camp. After three days of non-stop walking, her feet were a little swollen, He Hanzhi brought some hot water at night, Wei Ji scrubbed a little, and left a basin of hot water to soak her feet. I breathed a sigh of relief for the feeling of comfort. The curtain was lifted, and Huan Qi came in from the outside.
He had just inspected the camp and was quite satisfied with the military discipline, and as soon as he entered the tent, he untied his armor and threw it aside, and his own soldiers caught him and was about to put it inside, but when he saw the guards behind the tent curtain, his own soldiers were stunned.
Huan Qi looked over, his face suddenly changed, and shouted: "Look at what, get out of here." โ
The soldiers immediately bowed their heads, put down their armor, and hurried out of the camp.
Huan Qi strode into the inner room, and saw that the hem of Wei Jiao's clothes was lifted, and his feet were in the basin, and a pair of white and tender feet could be seen under the clear water, with slender ankles and even flesh and bones.
His dark brow furrowed, and he stared down twice.
Wei Ji only felt that his gaze was a little piercing, so she quickly raised her foot and reached out to take the handkerchief that was placed on the side.
Huan Qi suddenly squatted down, the long sword on his waist had not been removed, and there was a crisp sound on the ground, he didn't pay attention to it, stretched out his big hand, grabbed the handkerchief in his hand first, and then grabbed Wei Ji's foot with one hand and wiped it for her.
Wei Ji's face flushed with shame, "Give it to me, I'll do it myself." โ
Huan Qi didn't think about it at all, as if he was confused for a while, and then he felt unpresentable. He has always been domineering and majestic, and when he has done such a thing, when he wants to let go, he is reluctant to give up. His fingertips were rough, touching her soft skin, and rubbing it unconsciously.
Wei Jiao's face was almost dripping blood, and when she saw him looking down, she stared at her feet, her ankles were sensitive, and they were covered by his palms, which was a very strange feeling. She didn't bother to dry it, so she had to shrink her feet.
Huan Qi tightened his grip a little, wiped her dry with a handkerchief, and rubbed his fingers on her calf twice before letting go.
Wei Ji hurriedly hid to the side to put on her socks.
Huan Qi exhaled heavily, turned around and went outside, called He Hanzhi to reprimand, and said that when Wei Ji was grooming inside, let him watch outside. He Hanzhi agreed.
After this incident this night, the defender was still a little worried, and he was anxious when he slept at night. But Huan Qi went out and came back from a trip to simply freshen up as usual, ate a few mouthfuls of dry food and butcher shop, took out a cowhide drawing, and looked like he didn't do anything else.
After a long time, Wei Ji gradually became sleepy, turned her back to the lamp, and quickly fell asleep.
Huan Qi raised his head and glanced at her back, took the lamp farther away, looked at the drawings and thought for a long time, and then turned off the lights and went to sleep.
After two days of travel, he came to Zhangkou, the army was camped outside the county, Huan Qi led people to send Wei Ji into the county seat, and there were two staff documents. The county town is still peaceful, it is adjacent to the Northern Qin, the people are no strangers to the marching soldiers, the atmosphere is slightly tense, but not panicked.
Huan Qi placed Wei Ji in a house in the south of the county, leaving ten guards, and instructed a lot of words, when he left, he couldn't live in his heart, and took advantage of the absence of others, bowed his head and kissed Wei Ji fiercely.
The author has something to say:
Chapter 247: Chapter 246: Sending Troops
He moved violently and quickly, Wei Ji put her hands on his chest, against his solid chest, her arms were grinding from the nails on his body, but she couldn't stop him, she raised her foot and stomped on his toes.
Huan Qi was trampled on, snorted, took a half step back, and saw that her lips were red, and her eyes were full of angry flames, and she looked at her coldly.
Huan Qicai tasted a little sweetness, and didn't have to make an inch, and said with a low smile: "Okay, I'll leave now, you watch the door tightly, if there is anything to do, if there are not enough people at hand, look for the county office." After saying that, he stared at her twice, and then rode away with someone.
Zhangkou is close to the Qindi to the north, and after the army is assembled, it is located north of the Yangtze River, and it is safe and sound. Huan Qi thought secretly on the way to the barracks, but it was not that he didn't think about sending Wei Ji back to Jiangxia, but now Wei Shen was still angry, Huan Qi couldn't help but worry that after he led his troops north, Wei Shen immediately promised Wei Ji another person. In addition, there is a more important matter, Huan Qi's attitude towards Wei Ji has always been a little unpredictable. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally put people in Zhangkou to feel more at ease.
Leaving ten guards has already been ordered by Huan Qi, The first person is named Yang Yun, He has already checked all the inside and outside of the courtyard, the house here is not big, and there are eight servants, at this moment all stand quietly in the courtyard waiting for the dispatch, just now I saw Huan Qi with the troops coming, the servants only know that the people who are waiting are not small, Wei Ji ordered one of the maids who looked delicate, asked a few words, and let the other servants perform their duties.
She came to the courtyard alone and stayed for a while under the tall flat tree. Don't look at Huan Qi's attitude now, it doesn't seem to be as tough as before, but his care and arrangements for her have not relaxed at all. Wei Ji raised her eyes to look at the fresh green of the treetops, sighed, in Jiangling Zhuangzi Sima Yinxuan had advised her to look away, if this Northern Expedition made contributions, after coming back, the Huan family would go further, Huan Qi insisted on this family business, and Wei Shen could not refuse. Wei Ji thought about the past few times to fall out in the face, Huan Qi was not in the way of oil and salt, and his methods were getting tougher and tougher, which was really a headache.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Ji couldn't come up with a good way out, so she had to temporarily put down her worries and settle down in Zhangkou first.
Huan Qi stayed in the camp to reorganize the army and wait for the main force of Huan Wen to come. At the same time, the water army was stationed along the river. Huan Wen had already written to Xu two months ago to inform him that the two states of Henan would be ready to help. Huan Qi was training soldiers this day, returned to the camp in a sweat, sat on the couch, and presented the newly sent official war report, he opened it and hurriedly read a few letters, and suddenly his brows twisted.
At this time, He Hanzhi took his staff Chang Kai and two army generals into the camp tent. Chang Kai was killed by Huan Qi when he attacked Shansang two years ago, and later saw that he had some talent, and he knew the north, so he brought it with the army this time, and the other two generals were promoted in the hands of Huan Wen, both of them were less than thirty years old, and their roots in the army were not deep, and they were dedicated to following Huan Qi to make meritorious contributions.
After a few people sat down, Chang Kai first asked, "What bothered the lord?"
He has long recognized Huan Qi as the master, so he calls him the lord, and the two generals have followed the Huan family for many years, and they still call Huan Qi a general in the army, and they may be called Langjun in private.
