Chapter 16 Dress Up 1
"Why is it you?" When the woman slowly raised her head, I found that I knew her. And I am not the only one who knows her. When I hear a few "hey" behind me, I know that there are many people who know her. It turned out that this woman was amaranth.
Amaranth looked at me and then lowered his head. However, that glance made my mood unusually complicated.
"What's going on?" I asked Yu Qiujin.
Yu Qiu flashed to the side, and then I noticed that there were short Li Mi and Li Xu standing beside him.
Li Xu took a step forward, put his two small hands together, arched his hand at me and said, "Lord Sima. The cause of this incident is that I went to the wall to heal my brothers at noon..."
Since the surrender of the Li brothers, they have done their best in everything. Gradually, we don't regard them as spies. Li Mi was idle all day and had nothing to do, but Li Xu was very busy all day. In addition to healing the wounded soldiers, the people heard that he has good medical skills, and many people came to see him for medical treatment.
That day, Li Xu routinely went to the wall to see a few new wounded soldiers. Others were at his mercy, but the only officer named Xun Mao did not allow Li Xu to touch him in any case, and he was not even allowed to touch him. Li Xu took care of this.
After coming down from the wall, Li Xu told Yu Qiujin about this matter. Yu Qiujin decided to go to the wall with Li Xu, but when he passed the barracks, he happened to see the officer named Xun Mao taking a wet dress from a military tent to dry. Li Xu hinted that Yu Qiujin was calm, and then the two walked over and chatted with Xun Mao. As a result, Xun Mao actually told them that it was not worth it today and there was no need to be on duty on the wall.
Yu Qiujin and Li Xu knew that there must be a ghost in this matter. After stabilizing Xun Mao, the two quickly went to the city and found that another Xun Mao was resting in the tower.
Yu Qiujin found Xun Mao's superior officer and learned that there was only one Xun Mao in the camp, and Xun Mao did not have twin brothers. So as soon as he told the situation to the officer, he immediately sent someone to catch the two Xun Mao separately.
After interrogation, it turned out that the fake Xun Mao turned out to be a woman. Yu Qiujin knew that this matter was of great importance and quickly ordered me to interrogate him.
Who would have expected that this woman pretending to be an officer was amaranth that had not been contacted for a long time.
I looked at a man and a woman kneeling on the ground in a stunned manner and didn't know what to say. Yu Qiujin came forward to remind me, "Liu Sima, what do you think should be handled?"
"Became to the county government for interrogation!"
"Yes!"
We haven't arrived yet, and the county government has arranged the furniture for the interrogation. In addition to two rows of soldiers, the copywriter also set up a scaffold. There are all kinds of torture tools on the scaffold, which is frightening.
In fact, this scaffold is not used for trial soldiers, but for prisoners in the county. However, putting it here adds a lot of murder to today's interrogation.
As soon as I sat in the hall, the soldiers brought the officer and amaranth to the hall and made them kneel in front of me.
" Xun Mao, what's going on? From the truth!"
"Please forgive Sima. These are all subordinates, aren't they?"
"No. I asked him to do it." The amaranth, who had been silent, said in a resolute tone.
"That woman can't speak!" I said sharply to the amaranth, " Xun Mao continued."
I spoke harshly to Qi Er, but my heart was tight.
Xun Mao said, "I found this girl when she pretended to be a soldier a few days ago. So she wanted to give me some gold and silver to help her join the army. I told her that Jin did not allow women to join the army, so I refused. But she came up with another move, saying that she would not occupy the quota to join the army. Can she do some military affairs instead of me? I was afraid that this matter would be found guilty and refused again and again. However, it was finally accepted. Let her take my place for a few days."
"What did you do when she was doing military affairs?"
"If you don't do anything, find a reason to hide. Wait for the people in the military tent to leave before going back to the military tent to hide.
"You did this for the gold and silver she gave you?"
"I didn't want her gold and silver."
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.
Xun Mao continued, "Let me tell you the truth. I had seen this woman in Wu County before, and I had a good impression on her at that time. This time she came to me. If she hadn't been afraid of violating military discipline, I couldn't refuse. So it has nothing to do with gold and silver.
It turned out that the officer was attracted by the beauty of the amaranth. I actually understand his reason. When I was in Wu County, I saw many people fighting for their heads with their deskmates.
I turned to amaranth: "This woman, why do you insist on joining the army when you know that women are not allowed to join the army in the Great Jin Kingdom?"
When I asked this, I felt hypocritical myself. Last year in Wu County, amaranth talked to me. At that time, she told me that if she were a man, she would also want to join the army like me and gallop around the battlefield with horses and knives.
Is't she just trying to fulfill her ambition to replace the officer? However, I also hate that she regards the military as a child's play. Now the stream is facing a large army in the city, and the soldiers and civilians are panicked and unable to take care of themselves. And there was a mutiny just now. At this time, such a thing happened in front of everyone, what should you do with amaranth?
Amaranth lowered his head and said, "When Xiaomin saw that there were few soldiers guarding the stream, he wanted to do his best. Although there are many women helping to do some miscellaneous services, the enemy is currently in an extraordinary period. She can't help but join the army and should no longer abide by ordinary laws and regulations. Mrs. Xie can still lead the maid to kill the enemy. Why can't we wait? You don't have to wait until the thief breaks the door to find an opportunity to resist.
Mrs Xie's murder was very famous at that time.
This Mrs. Xie's name is Xie Daoyun. Her husband is Wang Ningzhi, the Huiji internal official who was killed by Sun En. Director Wang and Xie An are friends, so their descendants are also married to each other. Xie Daoyun is Xie An's niece. Although she is a female descendant, she has been talented and well-known since she was a child and is deeply appreciated by Xie An.
The reason why I know Xie Daoyun is that my wife Zang Ai has told some anecdotes about her before. Once Xie An lectured for his nephews at home, and then it began to snow. Xie An asked, "What does the white snow look like?" So a nephew replied, "It's not good to sprinkle salt in the air." Xie Daoyun then chanted, "If Liu Xu rises because of the wind." Xie's talent and reputation can be known from this little thing.
I can't tell which of these two sentences is good, but after saying a sentence at that time, it made my wife laugh: "When the snow is heavy, it will look like willow catkins. When it falls small, it will naturally be like salt."
What the world didn't expect was that this talented woman was a fierce woman in the face of a strong enemy. Xie Daoyun heard in the house that the thief soldiers had broken through the city of Huiji and killed her husband. She was calm and commanded Ding and the maids to guard the house. After breaking through the house gate, the thief led the family to fight with the thief soldiers and killed several thief soldiers in person. Eventually, he was captured because he was outnumbered.
The reason why Xie Daoyun was captured rather than killed was that there were many people among the thieves who knew her name. They didn't dare to deal with it casually, so they brought her and her grandson in their arms to Sun En. Sun En ordered to kill the child in his arms to end the future. Xie Daoyun said harshly, "It's in Wangmen, what's the matter with other people!" It must be like this, and it's better to kill first." Sun En also respected Xie Daoyun and couldn't bear to harm each other, so he ordered someone to escort her back home.
