Chapter 377, abnormal
The fifth aunt took out a tightly wrapped bag: "This is sent back from the ground." Xiaochu opened his eyes wide and cheered helplessly.
The two sisters looked at the burden together. Outside was a blue patched old cloth. The fifth aunt opened it and apologized, "He only asked someone to bring it back three months ago. I want to ask the Chu family to bring it, but some words are difficult to say. If you don't come back, I would have wanted to spend the winter free time, and I would go by myself.
Inside the burden is another layer of burden, which is also semi-new and old. When the fifth aunt opened it again, the room suddenly had a lot more luster. The hairpin, ring and broken silver are no wonder a large bag is so heavy.
Xiaochu held his cheek and said, "The person he is holding is reliable." There is no ignorance on the road. Picking it up with my hand, there was a hairpin flower with a suspected dark red blood stain in her heart.
This is all from the battlefield. Xiaochu can make a decision. Otherwise, how can there be such a sum of money?
"These jewelry will be sent to wash," Xiaochu threw it down and said to her, "As I said, the place is still there." Xiaochu has not been relieved until now.
Amita Buddha, it's good to be there. In the small original intention, I am like a family like my fifth aunt. Thinking of this, I asked the fifth aunt, "What's his name now?"
"Oh, I forgot to ask this. Three months ago, a horseman came to the army and said he was looking for you. I said you were gone, and he came to me again. Tell me that the package that Captain Zhang brought home and said that he would keep it for me if you were not here. I don't know whether the fifth aunt was moved or worried, and the corners of her eyes were full of tears: "I also brought a lot. Our family is doing well now. It's all because you exempted me of rent and gave me a few acres of land for nothing."
Xiaochu asked strangely, "How many acres of land have been given?" When the fifth aunt saw Xiaochu's look, she also asked strangely, "Don't you know?" The little original intention suddenly understood that it was Chu Huaixian's order.
After getting married to Chu Huaixian, Xiaochu intermittently mentioned the affairs of the fifth aunt. Xiaochu silently thought about Chu Huaixian in his heart, and his face was full of smiles.
After seeing the fifth aunt and knew the whereabouts of the land, Xiaochu and Xiaoyi went to their old house to sit down. Neither inside nor outside the courtyard has changed, and the cracks on the old wooden table are also the original ones.
But there is one thing, which is abnormally clean.
When he came back, his two sons greeted him at the door. One of them wore a ring made of red leaves on his head and asked Xiaochu in a milky voice, "Where is your mother going to play without us?"
Xiaoyi took out the dried dates given by the fifth aunt and gave them food. Brother Yu took a bite and vomited: "It's sour." Throw half of your hand on the ground. Brother Ji didn't eat anything. He only took one in his hand and looked at his brother's food well. He also said, "It's sour." Throw the whole thing in your hand on the ground.
"This is a sour date, of course, it's sour," Xiaoyi hurried to pick it up and picked up half of what Brother Yu threw in his hand. The girls paid attention: "Little girl, sour and appetizing, it's a good thing."
Xiaoyi smiled: "Really? This was given by the fifth aunt. It took a lot of effort to beat down from the tree one by one. Xiaochu made fun of Xiaoyi: "You don't forget the original."
Now I wear a head of flowery jewelry, and I don't want to forget the time when I was poor.
"Kill and kill," Brother Yu ran away happily with his younger brother. Xiaochu looked at his sons' figures. These were two noble princes who didn't know the sufferings of the people.
Come to see Chu Huaixian, but Chu Huaixian did not go out to meet guests. Xiaochu and Xiaoyi sat alone under the window, thinking about where they are now, and when they first entered this house, their hearts were full of past events.
Seeing the sun sinking from time to time, Xiaochu has asked Chu Huaixian several times. In the end, he couldn't sit still and wandered around at the gate of the courtyard, waiting for Chu Huaixian to come back to thank him.
When the dusk darkened, I heard the sound of horses' hoofs outside the door, and then Chu Huaixian's familiar voice: "Huh..." In the giggles, Xiaochu jumped up and ran out with his skirts in his hands, and the gems on the jewelry on his head made the twilight a light.
She smiled and said, "Fael." Looking at Chu Huaixian again, his face was gloomy and his eyes were anxious, as if something big had happened.
"What's wrong?" Xiaochu still smiled like a flower: "I'm waiting for you." Chu Huaixian smiled and stroked Xiaochu's head: "Go back to the room. I have something to do." I hurried to see Chu Taifu.
Chu Taifu was having dinner and smiled when he saw Chu Huaixian coming in: "Have you had dinner yet?" Chu Taifu, who returned to the other courtyard, seems to be living a good life. He wears a household navy blue 80% new and old clothes, which is no longer the official uniform he often wears. The smile on his face is like a leisurely old man.
"Not yet. I'll follow my father." Chu Huaixian saw that his father had not eaten yet, so he swallowed the words again. The family sent a bowl of chopsticks and served Chu Huaixian a meal.
No matter how busy Chu Taifu is, he doesn't ask anything when eating and eats safely. Today, he is no exception. He has long seen the anxiety and worry on his son's face, and it looks like something big has happened.
Except for the things in Beijing, other things will not make Chu Huaixian anxious like this. Chu Taifu was also anxious, but when he saw his son running back with a sweaty and tired expression on his face, he slowed down the speed of eating. Chu Huaixian followed his father's speed and finished the meal calmly.
After eating, Chu Huaixian has calmed down a lot. Chu Taifu could still calm down and looked at his family pack up and take the tea in his hand. Then he asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
"That year, my son was hunted down and killed, and the reason has been found. I just came out of the left guard's house and saw a man's back on the corner, very similar to Prime Minister Zhang's cousin He Dashan. I caught up with him and caught him and locked him in the county government. When Chu Huaixian said this, his face was anxious again: "I remembered when I saw him. That year, I went to see Zuo Shoubei and met him, but at that time, I didn't remember him when I shook him in the flow of people."
Chu Taifu made a hasty decision and shouted to his family members who have been handling cases for many years: "Please guard the left." Then he said to Chu Huaixian, "It's urgent. You pick up a few confidants and guard them behind the hall with swords. If there is anything wrong, you're welcome!"
When you hold the lamp, guard the left. He disared in front of the door and still asked the person who invited him with a smile, "Taifu is so happy. Will you invite me to see the moon at night?" Zuo garrison abandoned literature and martial arts. It was Chu Taifu's student's student who passed the Spring Festival and turned into martial arts. Therefore, from the perspective of the left guard, it has a deep background.
In the night wind, the left guard is still in the mood to watch the garden of the Chu family. Seeing the pavilion under the red lantern, he also stopped to look a few times and boasted, "That's good."
When he came to see Chu Taifu in this way, the left guard was still immersed in the red leaf pavilion in the garden. Chu Taifu smiled and looked at the left guard coming in to salute: "Taifu, it's a good month here."
"Yes, I've been thinking about it. Only you can watch it with me." Chu Taifu said that although Zuo Shibei felt strange when he sat still, he was still thinking about the moon: "Now is the time to enjoy the moon in autumn. If you don't appreciate it for a few days, it will become an autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves."
I thought this was funny, so one person laughed out loud first.
Chu Taifu quietly said: "Here, the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves. When will you take a ship of soldiers to Beijing to sweep the fallen leaves before you cheer up? The fallen leaves in the palace are very sweeping.
The left guard saw him open his mouth and didn't hear anything. He brought out a smile on his face first. When he finished listening to the words, the left guard was stunned. The smile on his face was frozen on his face, and he suddenly understood that a lot of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his back. He knelt forward and said in a trembling voice, "How offending the subordinate is, but the subordinate must have been wronged about this matter."
This kind of empty wind is the most difficult to resist, which scared the left guard to suddenly disperse his soul, thinking that he was implicated by someone. Chu Taifu and Chu Huaixian behind the hall were relieved to see him like this.
This person is not a rebellious person.
If the left guard also has different intentions, Chu Taifu feels that it is really difficult to do.
Now seeing him so scared, Chu Taifu's smile remained unchanged and said kindly, "Get up, I have something to say to you." Zuo Shou prepared for war and became trembling. Chu Taifu asked him pleasantly, "How much news have you passed with you in a year?"
"Cung doesn't get along well. There are a lot of letters from the uncles of the great country. He said, "When Zuo Shoubei thought of this, he suddenly realized a cold war, and his face looked like a ghost. He took a step forward and hissed at Chu Taifu: "No, they are going to rebel!"
Chu Taifu changed his face and said sternly, "You are too stupid! Only then will you understand?" The left guard took a breath of cold air and staggered back two steps to touch the chair. He fell down on the chair and muttered in a low voice, "I don't know. I didn't expect that He Dashan often said to borrow soldiers. Sometimes he lent him to pretend to be majestic, and it took half a month before he came back. I have asked the soldiers that there is nothing else to do when I go out with them. If I borrow it a few times, I can rest assured to lend it to him. Thinking that he is just pretending to be majestic..."
"Confused! There will be a ship from Beijing soon. Once something happens, he doesn't need your soldiers to fight. He just needs to borrow it and can't walk. You soldiers and horses are equivalent to waste!" Chu Taifu scolded the left guard.
The left guard suddenly jumped up: "He Dashan is still in the city. I can chase him back, but he borrowed 10,000 soldiers and horses a while ago. I don't know where he went. Taifu, you have to help me. This is a matter of destroying the nine clans."
With the bright candles in the hall, Chu Taifu clearly saw the fear and timidity on the left guard. He didn't know whether to scold him or pity him again, and thought about countermeasures with a calm face.
"The second uncle of Beijing is in the military and horse command department, and the closure of the nine gates is in his hands. Although His Royal Highness the King of Liang took a name, he was cautious about my affairs since he went to the west. He may not really be in charge. Left guard, you are a soldier. What should you do with this matter?
Chu Taifu's face. It's as black as the bottom of the pot.
"Yes, yes," Zuo guard wiped his cold sweat and listened to Chu Taifu's low voice, "This is to make up for your achievements, which can keep you free." Zuo garrison was relieved when he heard this, and his idea was very smooth: "If there is chaos in Beijing, Taifu can write to King Zhongshan, King Zhongnan and King Pingjiang. The three princes each sent troops and horses to stop 500 miles away from Kyoto. In this way, it can be said that they are mobilising soldiers and horses, and it is very fast to enter Beijing."
Chu Taifu nodded: "It's not appropriate for me to transfer troops, but I can write a letter to the three princes and tell them about the current situation, and they should understand."
"If the Prime Minister really thinks so, it will be too late for Taifu to return to Beijing at this time. But the mansion newspaper only arrived today and did not hear the news of chaos in Beijing. Taifu can send a trusted and prestigious person back to Beijing and act with the camera. The more seriously the left guard said, the spirit of the general gradually came out, and the shock just now gradually receded. He saluted with his fists and said with emotion, "Please write a letter. If you believe me, I will send someone to the three princes, and then take He Dashan and bring my soldiers and horses back. Taifu, my guard is extremely stuffy. It's time for me to be promoted!"
Chu Taifu's heart relaxed a lot. He smiled and said in a confidant tone, "It's up to you, but you have to deliver this letter to me as soon as possible!" It will take at least three months for the three princes to find out the matter and then come back. It's less than three months away from the Spring Festival, and I'm very worried.
The left guard straightened his body: "I understand!" Then he smiled and said, "Taifu, if you can't trust me, I will live with you every day in the future. I'm a hostage. If there is any abnormality, you can start with me. But now, let me go out and tell my people to catch He Dashan back. My soldiers are still in his hands.
"You don't have to go. Huaixian took it for you. You have to go to the county government to take him out. Be careful on the way and don't let him run away. Chu Taifu said, and the left guard smiled: "Okay, my soldier has fallen!"
