Chapter 917: After the War
A war made the people of Qingzhou City suffer for more than ten days, at this time, although the Qing army retreated, leaving behind a broken family, while cheering for victory, there were countless tears silently flowing.
And in Linzi County, dozens of miles away from Qingzhou, there was a person's tears soaring, which was called a storm, and he didn't care about anyone's eyes at all.
He is, Zhu Ci'an, the son of King Heng!
On this day, the hearts of the people of Qingzhou City are raised in their throats, and the people of Linzi City are also concerned about the war situation, Zhu Ci'an has not closed his eyes since late last night, and has been standing at the head of the city to look east, in fact, Mao can't see it, and then regardless of the persuasion of Zou Fengji, the county magistrate, he took his family out of the city and went to the east to enter the mountain to the top to watch the battle.
But he only saw the Ming army forcibly crossing the Beiyang River, as for the battle situation in Qingzhou, he still didn't know anything, but when he saw that the Ming army successfully crossed the river, he knew enough, and he didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he returned to Linzi and told Zou Fengji not to inform Chang Yu about his private trip out of the city, but how did he know that his every move had already been stared at by the Jinyi guards in the city.
After returning to the city, Zhu Ci'an went to the city again without thinking about tea and dinner, and sent several waves of people to inquire about the news, but the rewards were all two, and if he fought again, he couldn't get by......
This made Zhu Ci'an anxious like an ant on a hot pot, if the city is broken, father, mother...... Don't dare to think about it......
"His Royal Highness, the Tartars have withdrawn, and Qingzhou City is safe!" The family in the city came to report quickly, and shouted at the top of their voices.
Zhu Ci'an suddenly couldn't control it, the tears were soaring, the body was trembling, the snot was runny, Zou Fengji and the others next to him looked at each other, not persuasion, not crying.
Of course they were all very happy!
is also very convinced, the little eunuch really lives up to his reputation, and tens of thousands of Tartars say that they will clean it up!
The good news came, Linzi City was also boiling, Zou Fengji set up a celebration banquet in the county office, Zhu Ci'an was all in the past, thanking everyone one by one, crying and laughing, so that everyone was crying and laughing, but also secretly sighed that this life has grown a lot through this incident.
During the banquet, there was news that although the Tartars retreated, they did not stay away and camped more than 20 miles away in the north of the city, everyone's faces were slightly dark, the matter was not as simple as they imagined, and they heard that Huang Degong's department was wandering not far away.
In the evening, the family came to report that Huang Degong's department had gone to Qingzhou City, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, at least indicating that the situation in Qingzhou was under the control of a few bigwigs.
At dusk, the sky was more gloomy, Zhu Ci'an in the county government was pacing back and forth, he was extremely sleepy but not sleepy, he wanted to go to Qingzhou City immediately, but he didn't dare.
Because the Qing army hadn't withdrawn yet, the little eunuch didn't let him go!
When the entanglement came from outside the city, there was a warning signal from outside the city, and it was found that the Qing army was swaying outside, which made everyone shocked, and at this sensitive moment, they did not dare to be careless at any time, so they sounded the alarm and ordered all the troops in the city to go to the city.
When Li Yan came, there were more than 1,000 wounded soldiers, and when he left, he left 300 soldiers and horses, plus more than 100 of Zhu Ci'an's families, and some villagers in the city, but he was also a not weak defensive force.
Zou Fengji is also a far-sighted official, after taking office, he repaired the city fortifications and reserved military supplies, although Linzi City is a small city defense, there are many guys, if the Qing army really comes to attack, the number of troops is really not enough.
"The dog Tartar will not attack Qingzhou and lose, if you want to come to Linzi to turn the tables," Zhu Ci'an stood at the head of the city, looking at the distance with red eyes, more than ten Qing army horses, they wandered for most of the day, and even circled the city, but did not enter within five miles.
Zou Fengji raised his eyebrows: "How dare you move at will under the new defeat of the Tartars, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of my Ming Dynasty around, and they can be rescued and fought at any time!" Maybe it was because Huang Zongbing withdrew his troops and left, that they attracted them to come."
Everyone agreed and breathed a sigh of relief, maybe it was just a routine reconnaissance of the Qing army.
The sky gradually got dark, the fire on Qingzhou City was bright, the North Gate City Tower Lijia Waixiong and Lao Jiu slowly put down the clairvoyant mirror, and the fire of the Qing army camp twenty miles away loomed.
"The dog Tartar hasn't moved for a day, it's a bit unusual!" Lao Jiu scratched his ears, and Jia Waixiong shouted: "I suffered such a big loss in the first battle last night, and I can't slow down for a while."
"What bad idea is Bao Buqi fighting, anyway, I don't believe that the dog Tartar has suffered such a loss and has turned around and left."
Jia Waixiong shrugged: "If you don't accept it, you will fight again."
"Hey, Boss Jia is confident now," Lao Jiu teased. Jia Waixiong grinned: "Before, our brothers and sisters could dare to resist with such a group of raw melon eggs, and now the little overseer is leading tens of thousands of troops in the city, I'm afraid that he will beg for it" said and sat cross-legged on the ground and leaned against the wall and sighed: "To be honest, buddy is now eager to fight a few more battles and earn more military merits, and after returning to Beijing, let the overseer tell me a county lord's daughter or something."
"Are you envious of Song Luoshu?" Lao Jiu also sat down and smiled.
"Aren't you envious" Jia Waixiong snorted, unconvinced: "This kid has only been here for a long time, and he has no military exploits, isn't he just a little tender......"
"So the overseer found him a random lord of the vassal king, if we two brothers...... Hehe, it's a must-have daughter of those noble families in the capital" Lao Jiu's lewd smile is called a beauty.
Jia Waixiong's face suddenly bloomed: "Hearing you say this, it's much more comfortable!" ”
"That's not it" Lao Jiu laughed, and suddenly frowned: "Don't laugh at you for something, I think Song Luoyu seems to be really interesting to me."
Poof, Jia Waixiong couldn't help but spray: "Uncle, choke me to death, what does she mean, what does she mean to kill you!" ”
"I'm serious," Lao Jiu looked solemn: "I think she looks at me like ...... as dazzling as lightning in the sky".
"Fart, why didn't I see it, why didn't she stab me with lightning at me......" Jia Waixiong couldn't help but scold.
"You've been struck by lightning, and you don't feel lightning anymore......"
The two guys who feel good about themselves in the city are still thinking about the eldest lady of the Qianjin family, and Song Luoshu in the Hengwang Mansion is about to return with a beauty.
The palace is full of joy, for Zhu Youdi, today can be described as a double happiness, Qingzhou turned the crisis into safety and at the same time connected a good family business.
At the time when Chang Yu's generals gathered here, King Heng decided to hold a celebration banquet and invite the gentry in the city to congratulate him.
Li Yan and the others had woken up, and they were not very interested in the celebration banquet, but when they heard about the marriage, they were all overjoyed, and they were very lively one by one, which made Song Luoshu blush.
Seriously, this is only a proposal, and it is still early to get married and marry a woman, and there is a set of particularly cumbersome procedures, such as the marriage of the vassal king must be reported to the court.
But the guests in the palace are happy, anyway, they are looking for a reason to be happy.
As the old saying goes, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law and is more satisfied, but King Heng looks at her son-in-law more and more proudly.
As for the heroine Zhu Yan, she has no objection, she has a good personal relationship with Song Luoyu and Song Luoshu is handsome, and the sentence: "Marriage and lifelong affairs are all decided by parents" can be regarded as a family affair.
These two happy events are enough for the guests of honor in Hengwang's Mansion tonight!
