Chapter 144: The Powerful Men Who Huddle Together for Warmth
"What was it that I was afraid that the Demon Sect would come to deal with me, and I had to travel day and night... Now that he has returned to the Southern Dynasty, he doesn't even take a face, I know he's busy, how busy he is, this is still a brother?"
"What's the matter, what does it mean to let you send a gift first? Let me meditate and practice first, this is disgusting that my current cultivation is low, and what is the second tiger of Qiyun Academy, I think he is a real tiger, and I will become a worm." ”
Early in the morning, in the county guard mansion of Geyang County, Shi Jing yelled at a sergeant of the Tiece Army.
After being the same general, Shi Jing was originally more rugged than Lin Yi, when he was in Qiyun Academy, he and Lin Yi were both childish, and now many years have passed, although he and Lin Yi are about the same age, they look much older.
"There was no way before, Lin Yi couldn't let the emperor transfer me to the border army or to your party, now the emperor hasn't handed over the military affairs to General Wei Rui to take charge of, and he is now a figure who covers the sky with one hand, what's the matter, let you come over to deliver the message is to let me find a secret place to meditate first?"
"Lin Yi, he didn't even forget what kind of mind I was, and asked me to find a place where birds don't and retreat? Why don't you let me become a monk and become a monk. ”
"And when is it now, and what to repair. ”
Shi Jing shouted at the sergeant of the Tiece Army, who had been standing respectfully and awkwardly, and Wu was a little puzzled, but looking at the other party's appearance, he also felt that it was not interesting to attack the other party, so he waved his hand and said, "You can bring my words to Lin Yi, and bring him back any gifts you sent." ”
"This ......"
Originally, no matter how much Shi Jing scolded, this sergeant of the Tiece Army listened honestly and didn't dare to reply, but when he heard that Shi Jing was going to return the salute, he was suddenly startled, and made a mistake: "General Shi, we will definitely try to bring your words to General Lin, but you must accept this gift, this is about the military order, we..."
"What is the order of the army, I am not from the iron army, what does it matter to me. Shi Jing snorted coldly, interrupting the Tiece Army sergeant's words.
"This...."
The sergeant of the Tiece Army looked up and peeked at Shi Jing, he saw that although Shi Jing was vicious, the look on his face obviously had some room for maneuver, so he didn't argue, but said: "This is also General Lin's intention, General Shi, you look at the gift first, not to mention that this gift is extremely difficult to carry, and the quantity is huge, so you have to return the gift and carry it back... I'm afraid it's too manpower and material resources. ”
"What is it that is extremely difficult to move, and the quantity is so large?"
Shi Jing didn't want to embarrass this sergeant of the Tiece Army, he just couldn't see Lin Yi nesting in this kind of place again, complaining, a person with a temperament like him, in fact, wanted to go to the border army for training, he was afraid that now Lin Yi was in power, but worried about his safety, then he would become a rabbit in the nest. At this time, he was a little surprised to hear this Tiece Army sergeant say this, "Then let's take a look first." ”
"Then General Shi comes with me. ”
The sergeant of the Tiece Army was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, "I have already greeted the military before, and the convoy is now parked in the empty forage field." ”
"Convoy?"
Shi Jing's suspicions were even heavier, "What is going to be transported by a convoy, and when your convoy arrives in my Geyang County, I, as a county guard, don't know anything." ”
"That's because this thing is really valuable, so we have made proper arrangements all the way, from the party border to here, we will first disperse and then gather, as secret as possible. The sergeant of the Tiece Army looked at Shi Jing and smiled.
He knew that as soon as he said this, he was afraid that Shi Jing would be able to guess what he was sending.
"Could it be the rumored Lingbing?" Shi Jing thought of a possibility and was taken aback.
The sergeant of the Tie Ce Army looked at him and did not say anything, but nodded.
"It's ....."
Seeing more than two dozen carriages covered by black felt cloth in the forage field, Shi Jing suddenly became petrified.
Previously, he had also heard the rumor that Lin Yi had discovered the Lingbing vein in the party, and at that time, the entire Southern Dynasty felt that Emperor Xiao Yan had really made a big mistake because of this matter, because when Lin Yi said that he would use a lead car to transport Lingbing to the Southern Dynasty military, the emperor's letter of rebellion had already been placed.
According to some news, the spiritual ice contained in this lead car is quite amazing, and the spirit ice of these more than 20 carriages is far beyond Shi Jing's imagination.
"General Lin said when he arranged these things, let General Shi, you try your best to use these spiritual ice to cultivate. ”
The sergeant of the Tie Ce Army was beside Shi Jing and said softly: "General Lin also asked me to tell General Shi that now he and some important people in the Sword Pavilion are not in the party, so there will be some problems with the production of this spirit ice, but these spirit ice should allow you to practice for a long time, and then the production of spirit ice will not be a problem, he will continue to send spirit ice to you, the most important thing is that you had better not stay in this county guard mansion now, find another place to meditate and practice."
"It's... I still fucking think I'm his worries, and I think I'm a low cultivator dragging him back. Shi Jing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but burst out a foul word, when the sergeant of the Tiece Army was a little nervous, Shi Jing was a little tearful, "This kind of charcoal in the snow, such a big hand, this is the real brother." ”
.......
"Did you find any origin?"
"The person arranged by the military may be related to the Chen family and Wei Rui. ”
"The Holy Lord only handed over the military power to Wei Rui for the time being, and the Chen family has never been the master in Jiankang. They have intervened too hard, and now it is time for them to understand that Jiankang is not the northern border, and it is not a place where they can do whatever they want. ”
In the early morning, most of the roofs of Jiankang City were covered with a thick layer of frost, and a middle-aged official with a gloomy face stood at the window of a pavilion, looking at a row of low houses on the south side of the imperial city.
The chimneys of the rows of low houses were full of smoke day and night, and the roofs of the low houses were always white steaming, rising with heat, and there was no frost.
That's where Jiankang Imperial Pharmacy refines and boils medicines.
This middle-aged official was Situ Saijiu, who had just been promoted half a year ago, and the fifty-year-old official in a medical robe standing behind him and talking to him at this time was a fifth-class official in charge of the Pharmaceutical Department, and this Imperial Pharmacy was just a yamen under the Pharmaceutical Department.
After Emperor Xiao Yan closed himself in the Huxin Quiet Courtyard, the power of the entire Jiankang also quickly and quietly changed.
Some of the Zhongzhou Army and the Xiao family's side faction quickly lost ground, but the vast majority of the original magnates were huddled together to keep warm in this winter to deal with the biggest enemies that suddenly appeared, the Chen family and Wei Rui.
Not long ago, the military arranged for a medical officer, and two young cultivators went to the Imperial Pharmacy in the south of the Imperial City, and then under the pretext of urgent military affairs, all the medicines of the Imperial Pharmacy and the Pharmaceutical Department were selected by the medical officer for use in advance, and even many outstanding medical officers of the Imperial Pharmaceutical Division had to be under the command of the medical officer, refining and trial-making medicines for him.
At this time, the medicine that they requisitioned was also a rare and unique product, and it was originally needed by the old Situ sacrificial wine who had just left office.
This newly appointed Situ Sacrificial Liquor was promoted by the old Situ Sacrificial Liquor, and in return, he naturally wanted to seize this medicine.
Situ sacrificial wine is ranked in the third class, and it is already a high power in Jiankang, not to mention that although this pill is a trivial matter, it is a big thing for the owner of the group to keep warm.
He dared to come forward because he could be sure that he would have the support of the rest of the magnates.
