Chapter 1, Section 18: The Incompetence of Women 048/009
Yuan Ren properly dealt with Zhu Longjun's four masters and servants, killed three of his followers, and put Zhu Longjun in a separate death row prison before returning to the Shuai Hall and sitting down. The third lady didn't understand why, so she chattered endlessly, even blaming Yuan Ren for doing something wrong.
Yuan Ren smiled and said: "Madam, you don't know something, the general's life and death are unknown, I can't replace him rashly, I will take it by force, there are gains and losses, our glory today is enough and good, it is easy to lose, and it will be difficult to get it again; Do you think that the imperial court can still manage the affairs of our Xuzhou soldiers? We have an army of 100,000 troops, and it is impossible for the imperial court to send troops to the north! But such a profiteer actually knows the secrets of the imperial court, can this imperial court still be saved? Can I still keep this profiteer and give people a handle? But now is not the time to kill him!
The third lady giggled and said, "The master is so ruthless in his calculations! He is an ant in our hands, and he will strangle him whenever he wants!"
Yuan Ren smiled and nodded.
Yuan Ren was laughing.
Yang Xiongfei stepped in and whispered a few words in Yuan Ren's ear.
Yuan Ren was startled, sat on the tiger skin seat, and said in a daze: "Is it reliable?"
Yang Xiong nodded and said, "Reliable, it is said that you are coming to the gate of the city and coming to the General's Mansion soon." ”
The three ladies didn't know what was going on, and they all turned their heads to look at Yuan Ren.
Yuan Ren thought about it for a moment and whispered a few words in Yang Xiong's ear.
Yang Xiong flew away.
Yuan Ren touched the sweat on his forehead with his hand and said, "Ladies, please go back." Stay in your room and don't come out. Order the family to close the doors everywhere, and not to come out without permission!" Yuan Ren's eyes showed murderous intent.
The eldest lady sneered: "What are you doing? The sky has fallen! Is there anyone older than you in this Tongzhou?"
Yuan Ren got up and hurriedly said, "You don't know." They're coming, they're coming! They still don't believe me!"
The eldest lady sneered: "Master." Who is here, could it be that the general is here and has discovered your dual identity?"
Yuan Ren shook his head, his face was bloodless, and said: "No, someone from Yangzhou is here, and it is a general's Chinese army flag and a phoenix flag!"
The eldest lady sneered: "Fengqi, it's a woman! Could it be the second lady?"
Yuan Ren was stunned when he heard this, and sat down again. He breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "Yes, who am I coming, and it is the ladies who are coming." They didn't stay in Yangzhou at this time, why did they come to Tongzhou? ”
The third lady was quite knowledgeable, smiled proudly, thought for a while, and raised her head and said, "Master." Either I'm here to celebrate my birthday, or I'm here to ask the lord to send rescuers, anyway, I always think it's a good thing!"
Yuan Ren nodded and said with a smile: "Since it's a good thing." Then we have to go and greet it!"
The third lady got up and said with a smile: "Of course, these two ladies are the most easy-going, and they have always respected the three sisters such as us." It's all the etiquette to go and greet you!"
The eldest lady smiled: "That's right, I also look at these two ladies pleasing to the eye." Let's go, go back and change your clothes. ”
The three ladies withdrew.
Yuan Ren looked up to the sky and laughed, and then went back to the room to change clothes.
It is the sky that has eyes. There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
On the official road to Tongzhou City, Dongxue took Nangong Min and the fairy in yellow to take three carriages, accompanied by Xiaoyun and Xia He dressed as men, and the group galloped towards Tongzhou City.
Before he arrived at Tongzhou City, three fast horses followed.
The sergeants stood up and faced each other. The cavalry captain who led the troops had already led people to meet them and stop them.
The man rolled down the saddle and dismounted, and said hurriedly: "Where is Madame? Take me to Madame!"
The cavalry lieutenant crossed the mace in his hand, glared at him with wide eyes, and said, "Fart, why don't you get a lady!
The person who came hurriedly saluted and said: "Back to the adult, the little one was sent by Lord Lu from Yangzhou, and chased all the way here." The letter of the existing deer lord is here. ”
Hearing this, Xia He came over, took the letter, and said with a smile: "The three of you have worked hard. Lord Deer, do you have anything to say?"
The person who came nodded and said, "Please come over with your ears." ”
When Xia He heard this, he knew that this person was a guard in the general's mansion, and he hurriedly stepped forward to probe his head, and the sergeant said it in his ear.
Xia He nodded, raised his hand to call people back, and asked the team to go on the road immediately, and immediately stepped forward to the winter snow car.
Dongxue took the letter and said, "He'er, has Uncle Lu ever brought something?"
Xia He nodded, and said in a low voice: "Yes, Uncle Lu said that the battle had started last night, and we would hold on for less than three days, and it would depend on how our side progressed; ”
Dongxue nodded, lowered her head and opened the letter to take a look, smiled slightly after looking at it, and said, "He'er, there are still three days before General Yuan's birthday, right?"
Xia He nodded.
Dong Xue took out the bronze talisman that summoned five thousand grassland tower soldiers from her arms, and said with a smile: "Then you and Yun'er take a few people to our grassland horse army camp, leave one thousand people to confuse Tongzhou, and transfer another four thousand to stand by in the area of the boundary river thirty miles north of Tongzhou City, and the good show on our women's side is about to start!"
Xia He nodded, summoned Xiaoyun, and took ten guards to leave.
Here, the brigade continued on the road.
There are still three miles of road away from Tongzhou City, and people and horses are free to rest on the side of the road. Dongxue invited Nangong Min and his aunt to discuss the countermeasures for going to Tongzhou in the car, explained the details, and ordered someone to go to Tongzhou Pass with the general's token to call the pass.
When the people entered the city and entered the downtown area, they saw that the people in the city lived and worked in peace and contentment, all industries were prosperous, and the crowds were crowded.
Dong Xue couldn't stop praying in her heart that God could solve the matter of Tongzhou safely, and it was best to get rid of Yuan Ren without blood, and never fight against each other, so as not to harm the people for no reason.
Dongxue told the cavalry captain to order all the sergeants to dismount and walk, and to arrange their horses.
The citizens saw the general's Chinese army banner and phoenix flag, and saw that the tiger guards all dismounted and walked on armed. Knowing that the general and his wife came to Tongzhou in person, they love the people. Busy on the side of the road, they scrambled to kneel and greet each other.
A few horses flew in front, and a few generals and lieutenants came down. Everyone hurriedly said: "It's too late for me to come to greet Mrs., and I hope that Mrs. will forgive." ”
Dong Xue ordered someone to get out of the car and said with a smile: "Generals, please get up, Mrs. Ben is just a woman, why should the generals make such a big gift!"
The leading general stood up and said: "Although the humble rank is under the command of General Yuan of Tongzhou, the virtue of the lady is still like thunder!"
Dong Xue smiled and said, "General Yuan is in the city?"
The leading general said: "Mrs. Hui, the general is in the barracks preparing the grain and grass to be sent to the Huaihe North camp. ”
Dong Xue said with a smile: "Do you still need the general to do such a trivial matter?
The leading general said: "Mrs. Hui, it's not that the little ones are lazy. It is the general who has always been like this for business, and the small ones are used to it. ”
Dongxue asked someone to bring a horse, flew on the horse, and said to the general who took the lead: "There are three days left to be the birthday of your General Yuan, and you are so attentive, why worry that my Xuzhou soldiers are not proud of the world, okay, take me to see the ladies first." ”
The lead general nodded and flew on his horse. accompanied each other all the way, and said with a smile: "Madam, my subordinates said something disrespectful, but I am afraid that my Xuzhou soldiers are now in a big war." I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the general to have another birthday!"
Dong Xue said with a smile: "Isn't it just tens of thousands of golden soldiers coming to attack? What else can it be, can you use all the soldiers of the whole people; besides, the Dajin Kingdom is still the prince of the south to sit in Huaibei!"
The lead general nodded. Laughing and speechless.
When I arrived at the General's Mansion, I saw that the three ladies were already watching with their maids.
Winter Snow hurriedly flew off the horse. I came forward and saw the three ladies.
The three ladies hurriedly turned over and wanted to kneel to see them, but Dongxue hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop them.
The eldest lady smiled: "Madam, you are always so polite and respectful. How to say that you are the Lord and the King. Are we servants or ministers, you give us a salute, isn't this breaking the rules of our ancestors!"
The third lady smiled: "Madame is still the same, not out of shape at all, still so peugeot and delicate!"
Dong Xue said with a smile: "What kind of monarch and minister, that's their business, our woman's family only pays attention to character and whether it is compatible or not, and besides, Brother Yuan and my grandfather are as close as brothers." ”
The three ladies smiled and asked Dongxue to go inside.
Here, Nangong Min and the fairy in yellow also got out of the car and came over to see the three ladies.
The eldest lady looked these people up and down, and said with a smile: "Madame really doesn't have any shelf, so she brought such a personal girl, a mother, and four maids?"
Dong Xue smiled: "I'm not just here to hang out, there are a lot of girls around my sisters, and I still need to bring that many more sisters, I'm tired." ”
The eldest lady smiled and took Dongxue's hand and went into the house together.
After washing and touching up their makeup, they changed their clothes again, and the girls sat down in the back hall. There are people who serve fragrant tea and fruits. Dongxue also asked someone to transfer the birthday gift to Yuan Ren to the eldest lady. The eldest lady was very grateful.
Dong Xue took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "How can this Brother Yuan do everything himself, what are the generals and schools doing here?"
The third lady smiled: "What Madame said is that our sisters also persuaded our master in this way. But our master said, I am favored to sit in Tongzhou, it is rare to have something to do, today my Xuzhou soldiers suffered such a catastrophe, if I don't have to do things, how can I live up to General Ren's trust in me; besides, General Ren is now unclear, and we should do our duty as a subordinate of the courtiers!"
Dong Xue said with a smile: "General Ren was slightly injured in Shaolin, and he has already rescued the old prince back to Nanjing to recuperate, and he can come back in three or four months, I am not too worried about this little sister;
The third lady smiled and said: "This family is not worried about everything in the world, what is the lady worried about in her heart? ”
Dong Xue smiled: "I, the one I'm most worried about right now is General Yuan!"
The three ladies stood up in unison when they heard the "swish", their faces changed greatly, and they looked at each other. (To be continued......)
