Volume 1 Wanfuli Chapter 117 Can't let go
The fragrance of food in the front yard of the Taoist temple has drifted to the backyard, Mr. Zhuang Yong, Mr. Shen and Cen Zheng are still talking in the study in a low voice, Shen Leng pulled the tea master out of the study and looked at the kitchen on the other side of the east wing, and carried the vegetables, fish and meat brought into the kitchen to clean up and prepare dinner.
And at this time, three outsiders came from outside the sailor's camp, stopped outside the sailor's camp and left, they chose an inn in the town to stay, and everyone seemed to be about to reach the limit.
The person in charge snorted involuntarily when he sat down on the chair, walking for so long that his legs were a little numb, and the moment he sat down, he felt the most comfortable thing in his life than this.
He took off the hat from his head and put it aside, opened the package, took out the money bag, counted it and divided it into three parts, and kept only two taels of silver for his own share, about two or three hundred taels were divided among the other two.
"Tomorrow morning is the time to separate."
He raised his head, not at all worried that he would be recognized in this Jiangnan Province, he was an inconspicuous person, in his own words he was a small person, and he would never be able to do anything big.
So even though what he was going to do now might be earth-shattering, he still didn't think it was a big deal, because it seemed to him that there was only one meaning...... Avenge.
His name is Gui Si, and he is Pei Xiao's personal soldier.
He was not in Feng Yantai when Pei Xiao died, and he was not in Lulan City when Xing Da Chen Sheng and Pei Qiang died, so fate played a very cruel joke on him, when he completed Pei Xiao's explanation and rushed to Feng Yantai, he only saw the blood on the ground in the ruined city, and when he rushed back to Lulan City, he only saw the lifelessness of the three people's homes.
So he thinks life is really a fucking bullshit...... He didn't die, but he wasn't lucky.
"Why?"
One of his subordinates stood up with a pale face: "Team Zheng, do you plan to stay alone?" ”
"Someone has to go back to Dongjiang to report to the general, I am the general's personal army, and I ......am alive when the general is dead."
Gui Si pushed the silver forward: "These are all rewarded by the general in the past two years, and I can't take any more, you two divide the silver, take my letter and rush back to Dongjiang early tomorrow morning, tell the general everything that happened in northern Xinjiang, and also tell the general that I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and I will personally avenge the general's blood feud." ”
Another subordinate shook his head again and again: "The team is that you are alone in this unfamiliar place, how can you find an opportunity to start, no one can help you, after all, this is the territory of the sailor." ”
"I'll wait."
Ji Si leaned back and let out a long breath: "From today on, I will be like a weed that has taken root here, I will keep waiting, and when the opportunity appears, I can't kill Meng Changan, can't I kill a wild boy in the water division?" It's not easy to find out how much news this is, so someone has to bring the news back, you two have been with me for a few years, you should know me, and you should know the general, I didn't protect the general, even if I go back, it will be the same death, and it will harm my family, it is better for me to die here for the rest of my family's life. ”
The two men looked at each other with panic in their eyes.
"Team up, why bother?"
One of them said: "Knowing that we can't do it, it's better for us to leave incognito, the general will think that we died in the battle together in Fengyantai, and it won't affect our families." ”
He shook his head: "I'm not like you. ”
He didn't want to say anything, waved his hand to signal not to continue fighting, and then threw himself on the bed and fell asleep not long after, these days they have been hiding like ghosts in Tibet, trying their best to find out who the enemy is, the guy named Shen Leng in Lulan City left a word, but was quickly wiped away by General Guo Leiming, these are all bought by Gui Lei Ming, and only one of the people in the team of Lei Ming's family knows about it.
As soon as the sun rose the next day, two of Gui Si's subordinates had to leave, and after getting up, Gui Si freshened up and changed his clothes and shaved his beard, looking at his refreshed appearance in the bronze mirror, he couldn't help but smile, although the smile was a little bitter.
He only kept two taels of silver, so he needed to save money, and the reason why this was so was because he was determined to die, and it was pointless to keep too much money, it was better to hand it over to his subordinates and buy them a loyalty, and the letter had to be sent to Dongjiang.
He inquired on the street for a while, and found a job in a silk and satin factory, working as a coolie like Shen Leng did when he was in Fish Scale Town, sending silk and satin cloth to the river every day to load boats, and he could survive by eating and living hard, but fortunately he had the strength.
And Mr. Shen and the three of them almost stayed awake all night after they came back from Zhuang Yong's house, and Mr. Shen was greatly touched by the words that Zhuang Yong said, and the queen was so vicious and resolute that she suffered for nearly 20 years, and finally let her win the bet.
Her son Li Changze is about to become the crown prince, and the descendants have finally waited for the day of their rise.
And for this day, the entire family, including the queen, spent the same amount of time to forbearance to lay out, and they all knew how much the emperor hated the queen and how much he hated this family, so they had to let themselves clamp their tails and be a man, and then operate step by step in a shady place and develop step by step.
The queen knows the emperor better than anyone else, and she knows how ruthless the emperor is, so there are some things that she can't do but can't prepare.
Mr. Shen glanced at the sky that had lit up outside and sighed, thinking that he had tried to find out the truth for His Majesty all these years, but in the end he couldn't control anything, and what should have happened happened after all.
Who can say how many dirty things happened in the palace that night, even earlier, while His Majesty was busy preparing for entering Beijing?
"Sir."
Shen Leng came in from outside with a bowl of noodles, although it was just a bowl of clear soup noodles, the taste was still mouth-watering, especially in this sleepless morning.
There was a golden poached egg on the surface, four or five green onions, two or three oil stars, and a verdant spinach.
"Let's eat first."
Shen Leng handed the noodle bowl to Mr. Shen, and Mr. Shen nodded: "It's not in vain to think about it, it's not something we can control, eat and eat." ”
He glanced out: "What about Cha'er, is it because you're worried about me that you can't eat?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the tea master walk in with a bowl that was one size bigger than Mr. Shen's, eating while walking, two small cheeks bulging, not to mention how cute it looked.
Mr. Shen was stunned for a moment: "Look at your appearance, you have to learn more in the future when you met Zhuang Yong's daughter yesterday." ”
The tea master can't eat it anymore.
Shen Leng hurriedly went over and gently patted her on the shoulder and said, "In the eyes of adults, children are all good in other people's families, but in our eyes, why not the same, and the elders are also good in other people's families." ”
The tea master patted his chest: "Choked." ”
Shen Leng poured her a glass of warm water: "Where are the poached eggs in your bowl?" ”
The tea master smiled slyly: "I'm done eating." ”
Shen Leng went out and looked at his bowl of noodles, which seemed ordinary, flipped it down with chopsticks, and sure enough, he turned over a poached egg, he entered the house with the bowl, and the tea master glared, Shen Leng had to find a place to sit down and eat noodles.
The tea master took a sip of water: "Purse or poached egg, which is better?" ”
Shen Leng also choked.
Mr. Shen looked out the window and sighed: "We can't control big things, so do our own thing, we can't stick our necks out if some people want us to die, and those who are in a hurry to stand in line will always pay the price...... Leng Zi, have you seen Bai Shangnian? ”
"I haven't seen it."
"I've seen it."
Mr. Shen was silent for a while and smiled: "The kind with a bad face, the kind that died early." ”
At the same time, in the northern border city thousands of miles away from Anyang County, Meng Changan returned from the eighth entry into the territory of Heiwu with the scout team, and because he had been promoted to general, he was transferred from Lulan and is now stationed in Ancheng.
Ancheng is a newly built border city after the abandonment of the Yan platform, it is quite prosperous here, and the 1,200 border troops of Ancheng are his, in addition to the general Tie Liuli selected a standard battalion from the entire northern Xinjiang iron cavalry and handed it to Meng Changan for training, the general said that he would not interfere and ignore it, and Meng Changan would train how he wanted.
After returning to Ancheng, he rested for a while, Meng Changan didn't even take off his armor, and went to the restaurant where he had dinner with Shen Leng last time, and the shopkeeper with gray hair smiled when he saw Meng Changan come in, as if he was relieved to see his son.
"Why is the general here so early?"
"I want to drink."
Meng Changan casually found a place in the lobby to sit down, and the restaurant only opened at this time, and it was far from lunch time, so he was the only guest.
The shopkeeper made a few side dishes and brought them up, and sat opposite Meng Changan with a pot of wine: "In the future, I will drink less in the morning, Lang Zhong said that the liver master detoxifies and drinks in the morning will hurt the liver." ”
Meng Changan snorted, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass, didn't drink it, and spilled it on the ground.
The shopkeeper's face changed, and his heart instantly tightened.
The second glass of wine Meng Changan drank it all, it was still a strong wine, it was still so spicy and hot, and the whole stomach seemed to burn up after a glass of wine, and the brothers were put down by this wine that night.
"The name of this wine actually has a meaning."
The shopkeeper was silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "A cup to seal the throat...... A cup of waiting, who does not want to be a soldier who does not want to be honored in history, I used to meet people and said that after drinking this cup of throat, they will definitely be able to be a marquis of ten thousand households, they all laughed, they all said that I was talking nonsense, but when I drank, I brought some piety and ......"
He raised his hand and patted Meng Changan's shoulder: "There will always be someone who takes the first step, because God has mercy on them to rest early." ”
Meng Changan sat there, his eyes slightly red.
"This is the eighth and last time."
He poured, drank, poured, drank, and acted somewhat mechanically.
The shopkeeper knew that drinking in the morning hurt his liver, but he didn't persuade him anymore, just sat there quietly and looked at him.
After drinking a pot of wine, Meng Changan lay on the table as if he was tired and could fall asleep with his eyes closed, but his shoulders were trembling slightly, and the sleeves of his shirt on the arm pressed by his face seemed to be wet.
After a long time, Meng Changan sat up straight, took a deep breath, got up and prepared to leave.
He pulled a bloody money bag out of his bosom and placed it on the table, and walked out.
"General, I don't need so much."
"I have a few brothers who ate at your place a while ago and paid on credit, before I died, I asked them if there was anything they couldn't let go, and a brother told me that I owed you money and I haven't had time to give it, and we must pay it back, and we can't be untrustworthy as soldiers."
The shopkeeper's face turned pale, he lowered his head and looked at the money bag on the table, and suddenly cried out, his hands trembled and wanted to touch the money bag, but he didn't dare to hold it, and the white hair on both temples was rubbed into his eyes, it hurt.
Meng Changan walked out of the restaurant and looked up at the dazzling sunlight, which made him cry. ()
