Chapter 241 Heroes often conspiracy to get sick

The carriage returned to the Qin family's mansion, where a Tanabata banquet was also being held.Mrs. Qin and Yun Niang will manage it together. Although the Qin family has just recovered and many relatives have not yet arrived, in the capital, the right minister's mansion is going to invite a banquet, and there will be many people rushing to come.Old disciples, close relatives and distant relatives, have accepted invitations and prepared to come here a few days ago, even those who have not received invitations, if they have some connections, they have spent all their time trying to come in and meet some important people.

A large gate will have a large operating system, and people inside or outside it may not be able to see the whole picture, coming and going, going in and out, what kind of words to write, what kind of gifts to send, what kind of posts to send, what to say. What kind of words, what kind of road to walk, what kind of people to talk to, everything has its rules.At this time, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion was in a warm atmosphere, layer by layer, running in a complicated and orderly manner. Everywhere is busy doing its own thing.Of course, after the rules are formed, there are always some people who don't need to care about these.

Qin Yuyuan got out of the carriage, entered through the main entrance, greeted everyone in the hall, said a few words and then walked towards the backyard. The stewards and servants followed him, reporting the matter and obeying the matter.Those rules entangled, like countless complicated and invisible silk threads, followed him towards the back of the mansion, but when he entered the study, he stretched out his hand and waved away the people around him, and those people scattered slightly, of course the rules were still there.It was already bright in the study, and after closing the door, the surroundings became quiet, he opened a hidden compartment from the middle of the bookshelf, and took out two thin paper bags.

In this room, there are many hidden compartments for filing, but he remembers each of them clearly.Putting the paper bag on the table, the old man opened it and looked at it under the oil lamp for a while. They were all files of documents, and he didn't know what kind of things were recorded.After reading it roughly, the old man sharpened the ink for himself, took out the paper, sat down, and began to write the letter.

The movement of the banquet in the hall could be faintly heard outside the window.The old man's hands are steady and his thinking is clear.A total of two letters were written, with almost no pauses during the period. After writing, they were put in an envelope and sealed.He was about to get up, but after thinking about it, he sat down and wrote another letter. Putting the three letters into his sleeves, he picked up two packs of files. He walked out of the room, and the steward and servants rushed over again.

"Did you come to Yubai first?"

"The two sons are already waiting in the side hall."

"...don't let idle people get close."

"Yes, sir."

A group of people went to the side of Xiangfu, and when they turned around a corridor, they could see the lights in the main hall, and lively laughter came over.The side hall seemed relatively quiet. When the old man walked in, two young men stood up. One of them was wearing a scholar's robe, and the other was wearing a general's uniform. The military uniform meant that this person was the commander of the capital. He is in charge of an army on weekdays, and he is the highest officer of the local army such as Wu Lie and Wu Dejun. He must have returned to the capital at this time because of his resignation or some other reasons.

"Master Qin."

"Master Qin..."

"Sit down, you don't need to be too polite." The two men stood up and saluted, Qin Yuyuan waved his hands, "Qixian, Yubai, you already know what happened today, right?"

The young scribe named Fang Yubai nodded first: "Hangzhou has fallen, and the students have heard about the debate in the court today. These people are short-sighted..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the commander of the capital named Chen Qixian frowned and said, "I heard that Wang Ting and Yang Keshi will go north, and Tong Shumi will go south. They will regret it sooner or later..."

"I'll talk about regrets later. The important thing is how to deal with them. I have recommended the two of you to join the army, and the official letter will come out tomorrow. There are also Tang Sixian, Yu Rui, Shen Qipeng, and Ji Haifang. You know each other. Now Wang Xing is Commander, Yang Keshi supervises the army, Sixian is the deputy general, and then you are the first, and Yubai can assist you. The role you guys can play should not be underestimated. Although it will definitely be troublesome."

As Qin Yuyuan said, he frowned: "As a teacher, you don't need to investigate. At this time, Tong Guan has already recruited his confidantes into the mansion, and began to beat Wang Zhi and Yang Keshi. With his temperament, it must be said that he is for the Northern Expedition. There is a lot of hope for this matter. This matter is an unworldly achievement for the country and the people. Serving the country and the people is the most important thing. Although he... cannot go north for the time being, everyone still has to work hard to fight for the country, recover Youyan, and wait for the merits On the day of success, he should drink with the princes and ask for credit for the soldiers..."

*******************

At the same moment, in General Tong's mansion, as expected, generals gathered, Tong Guan was frowning and talking.

Although he is a well-known eunuch, Tong Guan is completely different from the general image of eunuchs. He is tall and tall with dark skin. full of energy.Being able to climb up to the current position of commanding the world's soldiers and horses as a eunuch, he has a sense of domineering in every gesture.At this time, it is for today's affairs in the court to lecture everyone.

"...Fangla's banditry, the disaster of Hangzhou, is imminent. To pacify foreign troubles, we can only eliminate internal strife first. The Holy Majesty sent me south, which is why he attaches great importance to this matter! But...in today's Wu Dynasty, pacifying banditry is not the most important thing Yes. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were lost for nearly 200 years, and our Wu Dynasty lost the northern barrier. As officials and soldiers, we feel a sense of urgency every day! I have been working on this matter for more than a few years by uniting Nuzhen to attack Khitan. Now is the perfect time, it is the time when a man will make meritorious deeds, achieve great achievements for thousands of years, and be famous in history. Everyone, go north, and do your best to assist Wang and Yang Ershuai to recover the north. I will go north as soon as possible to suppress the rebellion. Although I can't go with you at this time , but the heart of making meritorious deeds to kill the enemy is with you all..."

*****************

"Wang Ting and Yang Keshi are not here, but he said so, and the two of them will know what to do. This Northern Expedition will definitely be delayed a lot, and it will waste food and money. Because they know that if they occupy the Tong Shumi's Even if it is good for a while, Tong Guan will definitely retaliate in the future, which is miserable and unspeakable."

As Qin Yuyuan said, he took out two dossiers and three letters.

"But this time going north, the Holy Majesty also had high hopes. They had nothing to achieve. Perhaps Tong Guan would compensate the two of them in the future, but when the emperor was angry, they had to continue."

Putting the things on the table, Qin Yuyuan's face turned cold: "Tong Guan will help them say something. If only the sage is the only one, they will be safe for a while. But if the sage is under, plus me and Li Xiang, whether we can take it or not?" Well, they have to think about it... I have some criminal evidence about them here. They are domineering and domineering, and their family bullies men and women in the village. I don't care. These alone can't cure their crimes. Even if it is cured, it will only be some minor punishment, but if you add the Northern Expedition..."

"After you go north, this letter can be read by Sixian and others, and I will talk about my thoughts. Although the south is in turmoil, most places are already ready for autumn harvest. I will guarantee all the food, grass and military resources in the rear Supply, you can have everything you want in the military, and you must grit your teeth to ensure that this battle is won. I will arrange people to go to the border to provoke troubles, and you can also wait for the opportunity to make a move. The war must be fought. , don't miss the opportunity."

The old man paused: "After the fight, or if there was any problem between Wang Ting and Yang Keshi before, show them these two things, two letters, and then tell them that I want to win the battle and fight in front of the Jurchens." It doesn't matter what the price is for winning a battle, it doesn't matter if you win a narrow victory or a miserable victory, you want the kind of victory that can determine the situation. They won, and I, Li Xiang and even the current emperor will do their best to keep them safe and keep their name forever in history. I, Qin Yuyuan Don't tell lies, but if they don't fight, if they dare to lose, you also tell those two people that Li Xiang and I will do everything to make them hard to stay in the nine clans. In order to... warn the next person who takes their position ..."

The voice of the words is not loud, but decisive.The two students talked with the old man for a while, and then took orders to go.The old man sat in the side hall for a while, when someone came to hold the lamp, but it was Mrs. Qin in full attire, holding a small bowl in her hand.The two have been husband and wife for decades, seeing Qin Yuyuan's expression, the old lady understood the seriousness of the matter, but she just put the small bowl down by the table.

"I saw your expression in the front hall just now, and I'm afraid you didn't eat again. I just took time out and asked after I heard that Qixian and Yubai had left, so I came over to have a look. You like to eat them. This quail egg It's pretty good, let's eat a few first."

The old man nodded and picked up the chopsticks: "It's for Madam to worry about it."

The side hall became quiet, the old man ate a few mouthfuls of dishes, remembered something, tilted his head and said: "Hangzhou is trapped..."

The old woman blinked her eyes: "Ah...then Qian Xiwen and that child Liheng are all here at this time..."

"Yeah, I thought Hangzhou Wude Camp was also an elite soldier. Even though there was an earthquake before, a group of rioters should be able to hold on. Who knows... before the reinforcements from both sides arrived, it fell first. Alas, Fang La always Breaking up a place, almost exterminating the officials, gentry and rich households, now that the city of Hangzhou has been destroyed, the surrounding area is full of rebellious troops. I just hope...they can escape, safe and sound..."

He sighed, and looked out of the side hall. Outside the courtyard wall, the starry sky thousands of miles away was also exposed in the sky of Bianjing. A firework rose in his vision and exploded.

On the same Qixi Festival, Jiangning, thousands of miles away, is also in a lively and festive atmosphere. On the Qinhuai River, buildings and boats are waving, and floats are parading in the streets and alleys.On a small building by the side of a slightly remote river bend, the cool wind is blowing across the terrace with several lanterns hanging on it. There are all kinds of fruits and food on the terrace.Two women are holding a small begging banquet. Nie Yunzhu is wearing a white dress with flowing long hair, and Yuan Jin'er is wearing a goose yellow dress with folded hands clasped together like snakes, laughing and dancing upwards.

Not far away are the bustling lights of the city. Occasionally, people and cars pass by on the riverside road here. In the silvery sky, Yuan Jiner's dance merges with the surrounding orange lights, forming an extremely pleasing scene.Nie Yunzhu just watched with a smile, casually strumming the guqin beside him, chatting for fun.It's just that her smile always seemed a little forcedly alienated, this woman's heart was no longer here.

Yuan Jin'er naturally understood this too. In the past few days, news of the Hangzhou earthquake and Fangla's banditry had more or less spread to Jiangning.Sister Yunzhu has been concerned about these matters all day long. Although she was calm on the surface at first, she was already panicked in her heart. At this moment, even the panic could no longer be suppressed, and it was completely on her face.If it weren't for the fact that she also knew that worrying was useless, she might have packed her bags and left home long ago, heading straight to Hangzhou.

Because of this, Yuan Jin'er tries to laugh as much as possible every day, trying to make her sister happy, the effect is naturally limited, but at the moment other than that, it is impossible to think about.On the other hand, she also hated the married scholar who had no news in Hangzhou. If it wasn't for him, and Sister Yunzhu hadn't met her, wouldn't everything be over and everyone would have nothing to worry about...

In this small banquet, the two are the protagonists, and Yuan Jin'er's maid, Kou'er, is responsible for bringing all kinds of things.Halfway through the banquet, Yunzhu's married maid, Hu Tao, also came over. Hu Tao seemed to be in a mood, and talked to Kouer while she was busy outside, and then just attended the party as usual.Yuan Jin'er, however, saw that something was wrong with Hu Tao, and when she was in the toilet, she held Kou'er outside to ask.

Kou'er also frowned: "Hutao said, Hutao said... Her Er Niu just heard the news that it was brought by a business traveler from the southeast area, saying that...the southeast side is in chaos. I heard that Hangzhou has been captured. , there are bandits everywhere, many bandits have risen up, over there... no one can escape over there..."

"What..." Yuan Jin'er's eyes widened, and she didn't know what kind of mood she was in for a moment.Before she could sum it up, Yunzhu's voice came from behind: "You said... what?"

Looking back, Yun Zhu was standing at the door over there looking at the master and servant, her face was as white as paper, her thin body was shaking slightly, it seemed that the white dress and white skirt seemed to be shining slightly, making her She seemed a little transparent, as if she might evaporate and float away in this world at any time.

That was naturally an illusion, the moment Yuan Jin'er had such a perception, Yunzhu rushed out with her skirt in hand, Jin'er screamed "Ah—" and suddenly grabbed the opponent's waist, With his head pressing down on her body desperately, he shouted, "Guer! Prepare the car! Prepare the car! Prepare the car—Sister Yunzhu, I'll go with you, I'll go with you———"

Not long after, the carriage drove through the city streets and stopped in front of Princess Chengguo's Mansion. The two women got out of the car and rushed to the door. Then they were stopped by the guards. The beautiful woman in the white dress was trembling slightly. , crying, clasping together please, the woman behind also followed, after waiting for a while, someone walked out of the mansion gate and welcomed the two women in.They saw Kang Xian in the side hall, and as soon as they saw the old man, Yunzhu ran over and knelt down crying, followed by Jin'er.Kang Xian hurried over and helped the two of them up...

At the same time, there is no festive light in the vicinity of Hangzhou.

The Milky Way stretches across the sky, and among the stretches of mountain roads, there are only a few torches illuminating the surrounding roads, which look like fireflies from a distance. Only when you get closer can you hear the sounds of people, footsteps, cars and horses, and so on. People crowded together on this winding mountain road where not many people usually walk, stretching to the distance in the darkness.

When the sound of horseshoes ran through the darkness not far away, Ning Yi held a child in his hand, held Su Tan'er's hand, and was walking forward in the middle of the fleeing crowd, almost all of them belonged to the Su family people.He suffered some minor injuries in the battle on Taiping Lane, but they were all bandaged up, and there was nothing serious about him. At this time, apart from the seemingly endless walking, there was only a wound on his right arm. Wisps of pain.

At this time, around Hangzhou, there are refugees everywhere. Those who dispersed since the city of Hangzhou was broken were originally driven by Fang La.Things like order have disappeared, and there are slaughters and fights everywhere. Only their team is the largest group of fugitives. Among them are the army and the guards of rich businessmen and gentry gathered by Ning Yi. Wait, wait, etc. Most of the property holders have joined this team. They are also the focus of Fang La's army. There should be several troops in the rear. Taking advantage of the power of breaking the city, they are chasing this way. On the way, they It has been discovered once, a little battle has been fought, some old and weak women and children, who were left behind in the flight, are probably dead now.

The starry night was getting darker, and the dark clouds gradually covered the night sky of Qixi Festival. After a while, a knight riding a horse and holding a torch came over, and was ordered to invite Ning Yi to a place in front of the team to discuss matters. Ning Yi nodded and pulled Wife, go over there.When the night wind blows, he also feels a little cold, maybe he has caught a cold after working hard for days...
