Chapter 2904 Mutation, Early Expedition [3]
According to the time it took for several battle reports to arrive in the capital, the Dongqing people broke through the city very quickly: "Three days, it took no more than three days to break the city. This Dongqing must be led by a powerful general!"
"At this rate, Dongqing will soon capture the entire Northeast, then capture Yongtai Mansion, occupy the intersection of four Chi Roads, and then attack the capital..."
Then we're done!
However, no one dared to say this, for fear of being arrested and sent to the army, so they hurried to discuss with relatives and friends, raise money together, and find caravans to go south to buy food and medicine, so as not to be unable to buy supplies in the capital and die of illness and hunger. die.
"Quickly, hang up the white cloth, put up the incense table at the door, and pay homage to Liu Hou and the people of Yangji Mansion who died tragically!" The shopkeepers of all the shops in the capital led their workers to quickly make the festive shops look plain white. The restaurant simply closed its doors and stopped doing business for the past three days.
After the imperial decree for the whole city to wear mourning, another imperial decree came down soon, which was to recruit troops.
"Your Majesty has a decree to recruit a large number of soldiers to defend against the enemy invaders. Those who are good at medicine, pharmacology, and livestock diseases can join the army and receive a gold reward and silver reward on the spot!" The Royal Forest Army shouted again in the city.
Groups of soldiers left the capital on horseback and rushed to various parts of David, ordering various places to raise military supplies and troops. In short, the entire capital was extremely lively, but there was no joy in this excitement.
…
Erlang: "Mom, when will daddy come home?"
"Didn't Mom just answer you? Why are you asking again?" Gu Jinli was convinced by this kid and started asking questions since she got up. However, looking at Erlang's worried appearance from last night to now, she couldn't bear to scold him harshly. child.
He looked at Xiao Luoyou and Da Lang again, and saw that these two little guys also had worried faces. After thinking about it, he asked, "How about you go pick it up..."
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Luo You responded with bright eyes: "Okay, let's go pick up our cousin!"
Gu Jinli laughed when he heard this, but felt distressed at the same time. He touched his head and said, "Okay, I'll take you to pick him up."
Just do it, that is, ask someone to prepare the carriage immediately.
Half a quarter of an hour later, he led the three little guys into the car and ran towards the imperial city gate.
As soon as I arrived outside the imperial city gate, I saw a familiar horse.
"Ah, Uncle Dried Shrimp's sea!" Erlang often followed Brother Cheng on horseback, so he recognized the horse.
Brother Cheng was sitting in the room under the Imperial City when he heard Er Lang's loud voice. He was happy at first. Then he thought that Er Sister might come with Er Lang, then he frowned and pretended not to hear.
Unfortunately, Gu Jinli had already asked someone to call him.
There is no other way, Brother Cheng can only go to see Gu Jinli: "Second sister."
Gu Jinli looked at him and asked, "What are you doing here? You're hiding so that I won't find you."
Brother Cheng grinned and said: "Second sister, you are overthinking. You are my biological sister and you are kind to me. How could I avoid you?"
Gu Jinli chuckled: "Stop lying, what are you doing here? Do you want to beat Brother Qin?"
Uh, Brother Cheng choked... The second sister's guess was really accurate. Yes, he was waiting here specifically to beat up the second brother-in-law. Who asked the second brother-in-law to abandon the second sister and the children and risk going to the Northeast to fight? !
The war in the Northeast will be fought by generals from the Northeast, and the second brother-in-law does not need to receive this order at all.
The second sister has been fighting in the northwest with the second brother-in-law for five years. It's really enough. He doesn't want the second sister to suffer from the separation caused by war anymore!
besides……
"I wanted to meet the Holy Spirit and ask for orders to go out with the army, but the second brother-in-law sent someone to stop me and refused to allow me to enter the palace... I used to think that the second brother-in-law was a reasonable and gentle man, but now I know that he is just as domineering and unreasonable as Wei Erlang. Do what you like!”
He followed him on the expedition, and if anyone caused trouble or framed his second brother-in-law, he could rely on his status to deal with those people, and then write a memorial and come back to complain to Emperor Kailong.
But he obviously meant well, but the second brother-in-law disagreed!
Brother Cheng got more and more angry as he thought about it, and finally said to Gu Jinli: "Second sister, if you stop him this time, you won't be able to stop him next time. I will definitely beat him up to vent my anger on you!"
"Little uncle, don't beat daddy. Daddy is fine." Big Wolf felt sorry for his parents the most. When he heard that his little uncle was about to beat daddy, he immediately begged for mercy for daddy.
Brother Cheng hugged him and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid of big wolves. Your father will resist the beating. If you beat him a few times, he will be fine."
"Don't beat me, don't beat me. Big Wolf, tell your little uncle that you're sorry. Little uncle won't be angry with daddy, okay?" Big Wolf begged in a sweet voice.
Brother Cheng felt extremely soft-hearted and distressed, and said to Gu Jinli: "Look at the big wolf and the second wolf, you are still so young. How can the second brother-in-law have the heart to abandon you to fight in the Northeast?!"
As he spoke, he raised the curtain of the carriage and took a look outside. After seeing that the carriage was surrounded by people from the Qin family, he said to Gu Jinli: "After the second brother-in-law left, you were alone in the capital with your child. Who knew you would meet How many conspiracies and tricks...especially since that one is still in the palace~"
Refers to Qian Lier.
Qian Li'er has been vicious since she was a child, and she especially dislikes his two older sisters. If her second brother-in-law leaves, Qian Li'er will definitely not let go of this opportunity to poison her second sister!
"You shouldn't stay in the capital for too long. You should go back to the northwest as soon as possible. Once you are separated, both of you will be in great danger." Cheng Geer said worriedly, looking like he wanted to drive the couple back to the northeast immediately. Go look!
Gu Jinli smiled when he saw this, and was very pleased: "Brother Cheng, you have grown up and can handle things. The second sister is very happy... But people can't live in peace forever, and they will always encounter bad things of one kind or another. Don’t worry, Second Sister can handle it.”
Brother Cheng was worried to death: "Second sister, you are very capable, but it is because of your great ability that people..."
The fact that the second sister can make medicine is actually very taboo among the nobles.
"I understand, aren't you still here?" Gu Jinli said, "Brother Qin doesn't want you to go out with the army, just because he wants you to stay and protect us."
Brother Cheng was stunned and said: "I thought of this, but I'm still very angry. I must beat him up, otherwise I won't let go!"
"Who do you want to beat up?" Qin Sanlang had already left the imperial city. After seeing his carriage, he hurried over. He happened to hear this and said, "I can let you beat him up, but he has to go to Liu Hou's Mansion first. Get down, the carriage is not big enough for you."
After driving Brother Cheng away, he got on the carriage, sat next to Gu Jinli, held her hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Xiaoyu, I'm fine."
Brother Cheng was almost furious and wanted to scold Sanlang Qin. It was obvious that many ministers were coming out of the imperial city, so he could only suppress his anger and turn around and leave.
Erlang saw this and said: "Haha, my uncle is afraid of daddy, so he is not very powerful."
Brother Cheng bared his teeth and hugged Erlang: "You brat, go ride with your uncle."
"Ah, the second wolf doesn't want to ride a horse, he wants his father!" The second wolf has missed his father for a long time. He just saw his father and hasn't been hugged by his father yet, so he doesn't want to leave.
But he was no match for Brother Cheng, he was taken away.
Soon, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and the carriage started to move towards Liu Hou's Mansion.
In the carriage, after comforting Big Wolf and Little Luo for a while, Qin Sanlang turned to lean on Gu Jinli's shoulder and said, "Xiaoyu, I'll keep my eyes open for a while. You can call me again when you get to Liu's house."
