Chapter 156 Gucheng is saved
Zhang Xun was extremely depressed, but he was also tired of the hypocrisy of Liu Zhifu. Forget it, forget it. Don't make fun of him. After all, he is an official. If you get used to talking like this all year round, you will be fine.
Li Qianye whitened his eyes and said, "These officials speak so disgustingly. It's good for you to let me get used to it. Then I'm not going to be the same as them. Look at this Liu Zhifu, his mind is full of money. Before I say what I want, he promised to pay. He must be a big corrupt official. I must squeeze a lot of money out of money from him today! It happens that Miss Ben has no money to spend recently. Humph!"
Zhang Xun heard this and held his forehead and said, "My aunt, can you be serious? Whether Liu Zhifu is a corrupt official or not, how much money he has embezzled, what does it matter to us? If you take care of our business, it's all about what else he does. His magistrate was disgusting, and we just had contact for a while, and we didn't follow him all the time. Moreover, you took a lot of money at Liu Zhifu. How can we take it? How many carriages are used to load it away? It is estimated that this aunt city will be robbed by others.
Li Chiye thought so, but she forgot that this was ancient, not modern. The money here is silver, not modern*. If you take hundreds of thousands of silver here, it's really troublesome. I sighed secretly, if only there was a bank here. I also began to realize the huge difference between ancient life and modern life. There are too many inconveniences.
"All right, all right. I'm also not in the mood to play tricks on him. I don't have much interest in this money. After all, it's enough money for me to spend, and it's useless to ask for more. Li Qianye said "extratively." Miss Li is not loveless about money, but dislikes trouble. If it had been difficult to walk easily, I guess the lion would have asked Liu Wen for money.
Zhang Xun smiled at Liu Wen and said, "Liu Zhifu, it seems that you have misunderstood us. Miss Li means that if you really want to thank us, you can treat us well and serve more good wine and dishes, which is much more useful than your big gift.
After hearing this, Liu Wen quickly borrowed the donkey and said, "It turned out that Miss Li meant something like this, but Liu was vulgar and unbearable. How many more people need to say about this reception? I, Liu, have arranged the best hospitality. Do you have any other complaints? If there is, then say that Liu will definitely improve!" Liu Wen is also afraid that these people want too much money and can't take it out, so it's really difficult to do it. I was relieved to see Zhang Xun's words. This food and drink is a small matter. Gucheng is already rich. Li Qianye and others are here. Even if they eat big fish and meat every day, they can also give you as much as they can. After all, there are still not many days for this aunt city to be besieged, and the materials in the city are still sufficient.
"There is nothing unsatisfactory. It's just that our Miss Li is very serious about eating and drinking. Even if you treat her well, she can also find faults. You should still do your best." Zhang Xun had to say it randomly. However, Li Chiba did not refute him.
"Definitely, definitely. It's normal for several immortals to pay a little attention to this matter of life. As long as you don't ask yourself for money, you will eat and drink well. What can you do? Can't I afford to supply it in my aunt city? Liu Wen immediately smiled.
Looking at the hour, it was also noon, and Liu Wen ordered the housekeeper behind him a few words. Once again, good wine and good dishes came up. Looking at the banquet, it was indeed made with heart.
Several people sat down and waited for the servants to pour the wine. Several people are casual, no need to be polite. Liu Wen laughed.
Li Qianye here has already been eating happily without waiting for Liu Wen to speak. Mo Ling raised his glass and said, "Liu Zhifu, let's talk about the strategy of this aunt's city while drinking."
"I don't know what your plan is and what kind of strength I need from Liu?" Liu Wen asked with a glass of wine.
Mo Ling smiled and said, "The strategy we are talking about is actually not a strategy. It's just a way to act, and there is no great wisdom in it. We got the news that the reinforcements of the Xuanyuan court are already on their way to your aunt city. It is expected to arrive in Gucheng tomorrow. We only need you to write a letter of recommendation to us, so that we can take it to the Western Camp army and get trust to help the Western Camp army repel these rebels. It's that simple."
Liu Wen was overjoyed as soon as he heard this. Liu is trapped in this aunt city and doesn't know a lot of things outside. I didn't expect that my court reinforcements had come, and now the people of my aunt are saved! What several people said about this effort is also very simple. Liu only needs a letter. The officers and soldiers in the Western Camp will definitely trust several people when they see the letter.
"If that's the case, that's good. We are also worried about how to convince them of us when the Western Camp army comes. Now with Liu Zhifu's letter, it must be no problem. Mo Ling smiled.
Liu Wen said, "This time, the army of our Xuanyuan court came to rescue Gucheng. With the help of several young heroes, it seems that the siege of my aunt city can be untied in a few days. Liu is here to first toast a few people to express his gratitude. When the siege of my aunt city is lifted, Liu will definitely represent the people of the whole city and thank a few people. I drank it all.
"Thank you or not, there is no need for Liu Zhifu to leave. It's not too late to talk about it. Zhang Xun said, Li Qianye and Liu Yefeng on one side didn't say a word, but just buried their heads.
Several people dispersed, and Liu Wen also knew that his aunt city was saved. Even if he went happily, he should report it like other officials, and then tell the people of the whole city that the court had sent troops to save them, so that the people could feel at ease, so as not to panic and make trouble and let the rebellion outside the city. The army has an opportunity to take advantage of. I also promised Zhang Xun and several people that the letter will be sent at noon tomorrow to give Zhang Xun and others a good rest. If you have anything, please feel free to tell me. Liu Wen also wanted Zhang Xun to have enough to eat and drink, treat them comfortably, so that they can do their best to contribute to this Gucheng.
At night, the whole rebel camp was brightly lit and lit with torches everywhere, for fear that the army of the imperial court would suddenly attack and the patrolling soldiers were everywhere. Completely different from the outside, the inside of the camp of the coach Lu Wangcheng is dark. Looking carefully, I saw a little dim light, and there were no soldiers standing guard in front of the camp.
"Master, what should we do now? This aunt city has been surrounded by us for more than two days. Up to now, it has not ordered the siege, and many generals in the army have been dissatisfied. In front of the table, Lu Wangcheng went to Mingxu.
Ming Ruins still looks like that with slightly closed eyes, but the room is too dark to see its face. Don't worry, we can't attack the city yet. Tomorrow, the Western Camp army of the Xuanyuan court is about to arrive. At this time, when we attack the city, we will be attacked by the enemy, which is extremely unfavorable to us. You ordered them to be vigilant, and maybe the front troops of the Western Camp will arrive tonight. Don't let the army of the imperial court raid us at night.
Lu Wangcheng said, "This does not need to be ordered by the master. The apprentice has already arranged it."
"Hmm. After following you as a teacher for so many years, you also know that you are handsome, and it is better for you to arrange things in this army. Therefore, as a teacher for so many years, I have never asked anything in the army, and everything is left to you. But you are also very angry and didn't let me down as a teacher. Ming Ru praised.
Lu Wangcheng said respectfully, "Thank you for your teaching and trust."
"Ha ha... Since you are accepted as an apprentice, of course, this trust will also be given to you. With that, he sighed and said, "What I'm worried about is not the Western Camp army of the Xuanyuan court. What I'm worried about is that at this critical moment, Minggui will come out and intervene, so our matter will be very tricky."
"Father, there is something I don't understand. I don't know if I should ask." Meng Shili Dao.
Mingxu said, "If there is anything, there is nothing to ask or not. If you shouldn't ask, the father won't answer you.
"What the godfather said. What I don't understand is that since you used to be a brother-in-law, why are you still afraid to see him now? Meng Shili asked.
After hearing this, Mingxu's eyes condensed, and then it was lax, as if he remembered something had happened before.
