Chapter 1176: Mother's Family
"Commander Lei has taken Shun'an City, and Division Commander Zhong has led a strong crossbow regiment and an infantry regiment to arrive near Jizhou City, and will be able to launch an attack when President Cai arrives; ”
Ding Zhong reported the latest news to Ding Kui alone.
The infantry regiment was imposed on Zhong Wei by Ding Kui, and after the chaos was quelled, people should be left to guard it, and the infantry could assume this responsibility.
"Long Yuan? That's Long Yan's uncle, why did he suddenly come over? Look at the time to attend the wedding banquet between me and Li Fei, is it to see me or my father-in-law?" Ding Kui knew that Long Kun was about to arrive.
Ding Zhong smiled shyly, this question could not be answered.
"Herald Zhong Wei, end the battle as soon as possible and return to Giant Sheep City as soon as possible. Rest and go home tomorrow morning!"
The wedding date is set for June 28, and everyone in the Ding family is busy, and the hostess has organized so many people to do one thing for the first time, and her attitude is very serious, and she can't tolerate idle people in her eyes, except in one place.
It was late summer, the humidity was high in the swamp, and a sticky feeling lingered in the air.
A place filled with water vapor is really like a steamer on the stove, and the naked eye can't see anything in the vapor.
When I got closer, I saw that it was a pond, and there was a faint sound of women playing in the pond.
"What? The princess persuaded you to marry your brother! Really, if you hadn't said it, I would never have thought of it. ”
Listening to this sentence, you can be sure that there are Li Fei and Lu Ying in the pond.
"Senior Sister Li is hiding so deeply, I haven't heard you say it these days. This sour voice is Ruan Xingzhu's.
"You didn't ask me, I wasn't embarrassed to say. Li Fei felt hot all over her body, and quickly pinched her hand trick to inject a cool breath into the pond.
It turned out that the water vapor was made by her, and the three beauties didn't want to be peeped at when they were playing in the water here.
"Sister Xingzhu is embarrassed to ask. Everyone is so familiar, don't blame me for saying it bluntly, my senior brother is so good, and there are many people who like him, which is a very normal thing in itself, and there is nothing unpleasant. Lu Ying had something to say.
Ruan Xingzhu lowered his head and looked at the water surface silently.
"You were the first to know Ding Kui here," Li Fei grabbed a handful of Lu Ying's part, "Now you are not young, do you have anyone you like?"
"Ahh
With a flash of white light, Ruan Xingzhu adjusted his mood and threw an acceleration technique at Li Fei, "I think she likes her senior brother." He also teased Lu Ying.
"Wow, you guys join forces to bully me!" Lu Ying stretched out his hand and pulled back, forcing Li Fei back, "Hehe, let's have fun." Only then did she realize that Li Fei was slow and had little strength, and she could crush the other two in hand-to-hand combat.
She began to fight back, and it was Li Fei's turn to dodge, but it was really unwise to fight a water magician in the water, and people had no strength but magic.
"How can you use magic!" she was encircled by a small whirlpool, and the soles of her feet still felt the restraint of the wind, "Don't play!
"Shhh
"Lu Ying is the same as me, both are in the late stage of the fourth level, and they belong to Senior Sister Ruan, you didn't even have first-level combat power back then, Master Rong is really discerning, and your future achievements will definitely not be under Master Rong. ”
Li Fei used to have the idea of comparing her magic cultivation with Ruan Xingzhu, but now it has completely disappeared, and the gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger.
"Are people getting stronger or happier and happier?" Ruan Xingzhu stretched out his hand to paddle on the surface of the water, watching the splash beat stupidly.
Lu Ying asked rhetorically: "Isn't the stronger the happier?"
Li Fei controlled the flow of water to form an armor on Lu Ying's body, and said, "It is easy for a strong person to get what he wants, but he may not be able to make himself happy. I don't know which is better, I just know that it's easy to have fun if it's simpler.
Xingzhu, try to let go of your obsession, don't care about your strength, don't care what others think, face your own heart, what do you want? Do you hinder or hurt others? Do you hinder or hurt yourself?"
She had an obsession in her heart, that is, Ding Kui's suppression of the Tian family, but after the Tian family was broken by the rebels, her obsession disappeared, and then she became calm in the face of Ding Kui, and she was more determined in her heart.
Lu Ying stroked the armor on his body in surprise, not caring what Li Fei said.
Ruan Xingzhu looked up at Li Fei, and the two looked at each other with clear eyes.
"Obsession? Maybe, I'm different from you, there are some things you can do that I can't. Don't worry, I'm fine, and I'll be happy to see you happily married. She smiled genuinely.
"The world is too chaotic and I didn't let my family come over, except for the teacher and senior brother, you are my family, although your relationship with Brother Kui may be better than mine, but I still hope that you will accompany me as a mother's family. Li Fei gently hugged Ruan Xingzhu's shoulder.
"I am, I'm a native of Pingzhong County. Lu Ying patted his chest, and the water breastplate was smashed, "I'm your own sister!" said and squeezed between Li Fei and Ruan Xingzhu.
"Giggles, such a big sister, senior sister, couldn't you rob her when you were a child? Ruan Xingzhu turned to the side and let Lu Ying in.
"You're well developed!" Li Fei stretched out his claws.
"Ahh
......
"Juniors meet the Dragon City Lord. Ding Kui came to the dock to greet the fleet of Ssangyong City.
"What's the matter? Uncle is not called! Long Yan is my niece. Long Yuan pretended to be angry.
"Ah, the juniors are wrong, please punish the uncle. Ding Kui could feel the kindness of the other party.
Long Yuan hadn't been far away from Shuanglong City for a long time, and today was the first time he had seen Ding Kui, and he vaguely saw his shadow in this young man, and he felt quite right.
The two talked and laughed all the way to the lord's mansion, Shaodian Luan and Long Yan greeted them in front of the mansion, ordinary nobles can't enjoy such treatment, only close relatives are eligible.
"It's a pity that such a wonderful girl is not my daughter. "Long Yuan must be the one who protects the short, the princess didn't pay attention to it, and only praised Long Yan alone.
He and the people he brought lived in the lord's mansion, and Ding Kui specially opened up an area for the Long family, and his relatives could not live outside.
The Lord's Mansion also held a special banquet for Long Yuan, giving the Long family enough face.
Long Yuan sighed with emotion: "Actually, you are like me, you have exchanged military merits for titles, and created a family by your own ability, I am just a few decades longer than you." ”
"You are my role model, how can you compare it. Ding Kui lowered his profile.
With Ding Kun as his companion at the table, he was able to talk to Long Yuan about the affairs of the previous generation, and he did not snub this old earl who came from afar.
As soon as the banquet ended, Long Yuan said, "Let's talk." Ding Kui understood and took him to the study.
"I'd like to ask you for a position. "He went straight in.
"No problem, as long as I can. This was not Ding Kui's expectation.
"The commander of the new 19th Legion, it's not me, it's the dog, Long Yan's eldest brother, and Long Shuang's father, Long Yi. ”
"Shhhhh Ding Kui didn't expect Long Yuan to come up and ask for a legion leader, which was equivalent to leaving a legion, "Long, didn't Brother Long come today?"
"He looks after the house, Shuang'er is in the New Twelfth Legion, I come here, Shuanglong City has to be watched, and the people of Cao always like to invade from me. Long Yuan didn't forget to laugh at himself.
"It's not that the younger generations look down on people, the main thing is that they don't know Brother Long Yi at all, and I haven't heard of him joining the army. Ding Kui had no information about Long Yi in his mind.
"Didn't you say you don't value seniority?"
"That's right!"
Long Yuan nodded and said, "That's okay, he has the strength to command a legion!
No wonder you came to Giant Sheep City in person, this matter is really not good for others.
Ding Kui understood.
"Okay, I believe it!" he had Long Yuan's information, "Tomorrow I can publicly appoint Long Yi as the commander of the Nineteenth Legion, but that is only an empty title." ”
"It's okay, I'll find a way for the rest, you don't have to worry about it, can't I trust the Long family?
"Do you mean father-in-law? He'll be there in two days. Ding Kui knew that Long Kun was on the way.
"When he comes, he will have equipment, and if he has equipment, he will have troops, I can form the Nineteenth Legion in Yangyuan Prefecture, and guarantee that the Fourteenth Legion will not trouble you. Long Yuan's speech was arrogant, which was convincing.
"Okay, tomorrow I will ask the superintendent to issue a letter of appointment. This is not a difficult thing for Ding Kui, and it can be solved by blowing the wind on the pillow.
"What about military salaries?" he looked at Long Yuan with hope.
"Boy, you can't save money on an empty piece of paper. ”
Ding Kui's wish was frustrated.
"Well, no wonder you're bringing so many congratulatory gifts, I should have thought of it. "He knew he had met the old fox.
Long Yuan asked him to pay for the formation of a legion, and this legion did not listen to his command, only the Long family.
"You don't suffer, I won't die for you in the future, what do I want? I want Wei Guogong to get it, there is no point in having one more legion, having Jiang Jing in the Long family is your backing." "What Long Yuan said is true.
"What size of legion do you want to build?" Ding Kui had already prepared this money.
It is impossible for his troops to use the food and salary of the imperial court against the imperial court, and this is the reason why he is eager to control Nanqiu County and make money.
"Ordinary legions are fine, and Shuanglong City wants to buy a batch of strong crossbows, the kind used by your strong crossbow group. ”
Long Yuan specially divided the formation of the legion and the purchase of the crossbow into two things, obviously knowing the importance of the strong crossbow in Ding Kui's heart.
"It's very expensive, the materials themselves are not cheap, and the manufacturing process is complicated, the output is not high, and the quantity that can be sold to you is limited. "Ding Kui did not refuse, but there were restrictions.
Long Yuan stretched out two fingers: "Two thousand pairs, I will use it to defend Double Dragon City, and it will not pose a threat to you." As for the price, I will deduct it from the military expenses as appropriate, you can look at it. ”
He is not afraid of Ding Kui's indiscriminate offer.
"Uncle, what about Jingjing's 100 days and birthday gifts? You don't owe such a young child, right? Ding Kui cheekily begged for a gift for his daughter.
