Chapter 125 (1/2)
[of course, although there is no need to take apprentices, Duan Baiyue still pays the money to find a blacksmith to crack his finger teeth, which can be regarded as a gift to Wu Sanlei.
The dinner party was set in the backyard of the palace, which was more pleasant and beautiful than the house. If no one mentions the issue of war preparedness, it should be regarded as a rare moment to relax before the war. Chu Yuan drank more than two glasses of wine during the dinner. After returning to the room, he leaned against Duan Baiyue's arms and refused to move.
Ye Jin carries a bag of herbs, carefully sorting in the moonlight, filled with a variety of insects in the bag, very satisfied.
Three days later, the Chu army set up again and headed all the way to the southern border. Chu Yuan, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, was in front of the Wanjun army. Duan Baiyue rode his horse closely behind him. In the long light of day, he was handsome and dignified.
The girls on both sides of the road stood on tiptoe and were hesitant to choose which one to marry in the future.
Ten days later, when the army arrived at Guanhai City, the local officials had knelt down to meet the driver. After approaching, Chu Yuan was startled. He turned over and dismounted. He took a few steps to help the leader up and asked, ”what's wrong with Aiqing?”
Feng Chen, the magistrate of Guanhai County, was blue and blue with a bandage on his arm. He said with shame: ”a group of killers broke into the Yamen the night before yesterday, and they would cut down every person they met. If it were not for the people from southwest government who came to help in the middle of the way, I'm afraid that Wei Chen would not have lived to this day.”
”Asshole!” Chu Yuan angrily said, ”who is so bold?”
”That group of people are very good at martial arts. As soon as they see the people in the southwest, they leave in a hurry.” Feng Chen said, ”but according to what they said that night, it should be the rebels.”
”What's in your mouth, what are you calling?” Chu Yuan asked.
”This...” Hearing this, Feng Chen hesitated, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
Chu Yuan said: ”why, Ai Qing didn't hear my question clearly?”
”They said, said...” Feng Chen didn't dare to say so. He just knelt down and kowtowed at the back of his head, ”those thieves are not worth listening to.”
”Aiqing is worried about it.” Chu Yuan shook his head and reached out to help him up. ”Just a word. I'm not going to punish you for this. Let's go to the city first. ”
”Yes.” Feng Chen was relieved and made the guard open the gate.
Although it was noon, the city was empty, and there was no one in the street. The house is even more dilapidated, and even there are many pits on the road. It seems that they have just been repaired these days.
Chu Yuan frowned. He also came to Guanhai city a few years ago, in order to go out to sea to find a white moon. At that time, it was not a bustling place. The shops on both sides of the street were full of people. Even if it was just a small narrow wooden house, as long as you open a door to the road, you can make money no matter what you sell. Only a few years have passed, and even if the war is about to start, at most the common people will not be able to leave their homes behind, and they should not have fallen here.
”To return to the emperor, it is also the rebels who are causing trouble everywhere.” Feng Chen saw what he was worried about. As soon as he entered the post house, he said, ”in recent months, people have been beating and smashing the streets in the middle of the night, and even throwing thunder everywhere. Within a few days, most of the houses in the city were destroyed.”
”There are tens of thousands of Navy stationed in Guanhai city. How many people, more than 100000, or hundreds of thousands of them?” Chu Yuan's tone is full of suppressed anger. He had indeed received a secret letter saying that Chu Xiang had sent people to make trouble in the city, but he never thought it would be so devastated.
”The emperor will not be angry.” Feng Chen knelt down and stammered, ”the other side, there is only one person on the other side.”
Chu Yuan angry extremely counter smile: ”how much?”
”There is only one person, but he can fly.” Feng Chen said, ”we have laid down heavy troops, but we have failed to shoot him down with a series of shots.”
Chu Yuan shook his head: ”when was the last time I saw him?”
Feng Chen said, ”last night. ”
Wen LiuNian frowned, and the army would arrive at Guanhai city today, but the other side was still making trouble yesterday. This is not only a matter of courage, but a deliberate provocation.
”Go outside and find out what's going on.” Chu Yuan on the side of the body Wen LiuNian Road, ”and then to report to me.”
”Yes.” Wen LiuNian should come down and take Zhao Yue out of the door. Feng Chen wiped off his cold sweat and played the rest of the military affairs one by one. It was nothing unusual.
After dark, Chu Yuan returned to his bedroom, and Duan Baiyue did not come back.
Four Xi said: ”back to the emperor, the southwest king has been outside in the afternoon, just came back for a while, and then left.”
”Where have you been?” Chu Yuan sat on the chair, thinking whether to eat something to pad his stomach or go out to look for him.
Duan Baiyue reached out to open the door of the house with several oil paper bags in his hand.
Four Xi father-in-law was relieved and quickly withdrew to close the door for them.
”No dinner, isn't it?” Duan Baiyue opened a paper bag and said, ”go wipe your hands, and then come to eat.”
”To go out to buy these?” Chu Yuan asked, ”why so much, also can't eat.”
Duan Baiyue scraped his nose: ”I didn't eat anything either. I've been asking about things outside.”
Chu Yuan wiped his clean hands and sat at the table and said, ”what's the matter, the thief who flies away from the earth?””This is one of the things, and the other is who killed Feng Chen.” Duan Baiyue said, ”it's not reasonable to say that the magistrate is only a scholar, and he is not a man of ability. Why should he spend all his time trying to take his life?”
”What did you find out?” Chu Yuan took a chicken paw and chewed it slowly.
Duan Baiyue shakes his head.
”People all say that Fengzhi county is honest and honest, and should not be hostile to family, is it?” Chu Yuan asked.
Duan Baiyue said, ”how do you know?”
”I appointed him, and I know it.” Chu Yuan said, ”this Guanhai city is no better than other land boundaries. Tens of thousands of South China Sea Water troops are stationed. The commander Zhuo Yunhe has a strong character. If you add a local officer with the same bull temper, you will have a conflict within three days.”
”So you've found Feng Chen, who has no merit and is honest in character?” Duan Baiyue said, ”it's even worse. What's the use of killing him?”
Chu Yuan said: ”add to my heart.”
Duan Baiyue said:
