Chapter 407 (1/2)
Du Wen and his party waited for about a quarter of an hour, and a man about forty came out of it. The man was dressed in a crimson robe without armor or official uniform.
Huo Changqing looked at Du Wen and said, ”surely you are Du adult? I'm Huo Changqing, Yunqing's uncle. Yunqing is not good at dealing with people. If he says something that is not pleasant to listen to, please invite Mr. Du Haihan. ”
Du Wen listened to this and said, ”it's uncle Huo. Let uncle Huo come to pick up the younger generation himself. I'm ashamed.” Even if Huo Changqing has no official position, he has to respect his position. I'm not sure. This is the key figure to talk about Yunqing.
Huo Changqing is not a person who often laughs, and he will not do flattery. He said, ”you are welcome, Mr. Du. Gang Yunqing told me that Mr. Du wants to see the situation in the barracks.”
Du Wen nodded and said: ”the prince last time heard general Qin Zhao say that the life of the soldiers in the border city is extremely difficult, so he took this matter to heart. This time, I'd like to ask my corporal to see what they lack and what they lack. His highness said that he would rather suffer from himself and all the officials, but he would never suffer from the soldiers who throw their heads and shed their blood to guard the land. ” This means that if the generals are really having a hard time, the prince will try his best to make their lives easier.
Huo Changqing couldn't say how grateful he was for the prince's words. He said, ”please come with me, Lord Du.” After that, he took Du Wenshu to the training ground, saw the simple equipment in the training ground, and then took Du Wenshu to the soldiers' place.
Pointing to a white quilt, he said: ”it has been used for five years, and it is not warm for a long time. In winter, there is no warmth in the whole life. The soldiers can't help but sleep together. In this way, they can take off the warmth from each other. ”
After saying this, pointing to a soldier who followed in, he said, ”take off your cotton padded clothes and show it to Lord Du.”
From the place where the soldiers lived, he took Du Wenshu to the horse farm and the kitchen, pointed to the black nest head, Huo Changqing said: ”in addition to the Spring Festival, the soldiers can only eat meat on the eve of the war. In general, it's good to be full. ” This means that the life of the soldiers has been too bitter to suffer any more.
After visiting the barracks, Du wentou seems to be holding a stone in his heart, suppressing this emotion. Du Wendu says, ”what about general Yun? I want to see general Yun? ”
Huo Changqing hesitated for a moment and said, ”OK, come with me.”
The place where general Yunqing lives is also very simple. There is a map on the wall facing the door. In addition to a long table and several chairs, there is a basin of burning charcoal fire. There is no more.
Du Wen saw all this and said, ”general Yun, do you want to talk to general Yun?” The meaning of this is very clear. The prince has something to tell him in private.
Yunqing waves. Except for Huo Changqing, everyone else in the room has gone down. This habit was influenced by Yuxi, who asked people to go down without opening their mouths and waving directly. It has to be said that Yuxi has a great influence on Yunqing.
When everyone left, Yunqing said coldly, ”if you have anything to say, I have a lot of things to deal with.” Attitude is the same as before, no change at all.
Du Wen did not hide and hold it, saying, ”general Yun, this time the crown prince specially ordered his servants to come to see general Yun.” Seeing that Yunqing didn't say a word, Du Wen said: ”general Yun, the prince knows that general Yun has been wronged. The prince didn't know it before, and he corrected it immediately after he knew it. The prince also said that such a thing would never happen again. ” This is very vague. The so-called grievance actually refers to the fact that Yunqing has outstanding military skills, but is not allowed to be promoted by the Song family.
When Yunqing heard this, he was calm and didn't speak. If there was no brother-in-law, he knew that in order to win over the Song family and raise his official rank, he really thought it was the prince who raised his official rank! It's shameful to be a reserve king and not to say a single word of truth, but to take credit.
Du Wen made the prince's meaning clear and clear. Seeing that Yunqing was still silent, he was a little frustrated and asked, ”general, I have said so much to the general. Does the general have anything to say?”
Yun Qing looked up at Du Wen and said, ”my duty is to guard Yucheng and not let the northern captives step into Yucheng.” He doesn't mix in with others.
At this time, Guo Xun cried out: ”general, Yu Zhi has sent the medicine.” Since Yuxi knew Yunqing was ill, he had to eat medicine meals three times a day.
”Bring it in!” said Yunqing in a cold voice In fact, today's medicinal diet has been improved by Yuxi. It tastes much better than before, but Yunqing still doesn't like it.
