Chapter 239 Father and Daughter Reunited
For the fact that Tuoba Lian's entire army was wiped out, only dozens of people escaped, and even he was captured alive by the generals of Liaodong County, Tuoba Khan and the Xianbei high-ranking officials were first furious, and after being furious, they were ashamed. This was really too embarrassing!
But this matter had to be dealt with. So the Xianbei royal court spoke, directly threatening the Liaodong County governor to release the people, otherwise they would raise troops to the south!
As soon as the declaration came out, Liaodong County was now in a state of storm.
Before Lu Songli and his party set off, Le Guicai only met them in a hurry. His face was very bad, and his face was full of tension and fatigue.
This look was not aimed at the Qin brothers, but at the current situation in Liaodong County that was about to explode.
The attitude of the Xianbei royal court put a lot of pressure on Liaodong County. As the general who captured Tuoba Lian alive, Le Guicai was the first to bear the brunt.
Before Lu Songli and his party set off for Houcheng, she sent a letter to Zhou Dama Jin and others, asking them to rush to Longcheng to give it to Xue Xu.
The entire Liaodong County was suddenly plunged into a state of anxiety, and the people had no intention of farming.
"There will be a war, and the Xianbei army will come again."
The people were simply scared.
When Lv Songli and his party went north, they met many people on the road who were carrying bags, supporting the elderly, and pulling children south, either to Liaoxi County or Xuantu County.
If the war broke out, Houcheng, Wangping, and Wuli County, which were closest to the northern grasslands, would inevitably be involved and become a place where war raged.
Now all the people who could run have run away.
Seeing this scene, the Qin family was very silent.
"I didn't expect the people to be so afraid of the Xianbei." Lv Songli couldn't help but sigh.
She grew up in a peaceful era and had never experienced the country's weakness. After she remembered things, the country was slowly getting stronger. When she traveled through time, her motherland had become the world's second largest economy, and no one dared to offend it anymore.
Seeing this scene, she silently paid tribute to her ancestors in her heart.
Let's not talk about later generations, just take the previous dynasties as an example.
Qin and Han both died because of their strength. During the peak period of the strong Qin and Han, they conquered the four barbarians. Not to mention the Qin Dynasty, when the Han Dynasty was at its most powerful, it almost cut off the household registration books of the surrounding foreign tribes.
The remaining few melons and two dates trembled. The Han people always said that the Han army was coming, and they should not move, otherwise the country would be destroyed. How proud they were.
Who would have thought that the situation would be reversed now?
Bored along the way, Lu Songli talked to the children about the strong Qin and the strong Han.
Qin Sheng silently listened to her words in his heart. If he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely restore the style of the strong Han.
For children like Qin Jia and Qin Han, with the previous experience of exile as a foundation, they did not complain about the hardship or tiredness.
As for Qin's mother, Cai, Su and other female relatives, they felt that as long as they could be with their family, these were nothing, and they did not feel bitter. Even if it was bitter, there was hope.
Houcheng
County Magistrate Zheng Qiao was jumping up and down in the government office.
Why, why did he let him go through this? Couldn't it be delayed for ten days or half a month for these accidents? Couldn't they wait until he completed the handover and left before doing this?
In the end, it was all the fault of that damn Tuoba Lian. If he hadn't raided Liaoyang for a woman, he wouldn't have been arrested. If he hadn't been arrested, there would be no Xianbei royal court threatening to send troops south.
Then he could wait for the handover in peace! God knows, he really wanted to run away with his baggage!
Now, Tuoba Lian, that damn guy, was arrested, and he also implicated innocent people. This beast, it's really not a pity to die!
Zheng Qiao cursed Tuoba Lian in his heart, and after cursing, when facing reality, he really wanted to cry but had no tears.
He counted on his fingers, how long it would take for the new county magistrate to arrive in Houcheng and hand over to him after leaving Chang'an.
But the more he calculated, the more desperate he became.
When officials were sent out, they usually brought their families with them, and the court also gave them enough time.
Not to mention that the people coming here cannot reach Houcheng in the near future according to the normal walking speed.
Even if they are about to arrive, if he is Lv Desheng, he will have to stop and not move when he sees this situation, and decide whether to come after the matter is over.
In the general trend of a large number of people packing their bags and heading south, Lv Songli and his group went upstream. Such a feat attracted the sympathetic eyes of many people.
In the eyes of the people, they were going to die.
Lv Songli and his group: ...
Houcheng and Xiangping are only two counties apart, and they will arrive in Houcheng soon.
They were assigned to the military camp in Houcheng, and the house they were assigned was the outermost and the worst in the entire camp.
Because four people from their Qin family would enter the barracks, they were assigned to four large rooms, all next to each other. Each large room also comes with two small rooms. Although the small room is small, it can still be lived in after cleaning.
Qin Heng gave his large room to Qin's mother, and he lived in the small room.
At this time, the atmosphere in the military dependents area of Houcheng was also very tense. When Lv Songli and the others moved in, the military dependents were all in a hurry and only glanced at them once or twice when they passed by.
Lv Songli was also very anxious. She had a good plan. If implemented properly, she could solve the current crisis without bloodshed. But the people who could implement it were not there.
Just when everyone was busy packing up their residence, there was a noise outside the door.
It was Qin Sheng who went to open the door.
"Lili, come quickly--" Qin Sheng thought for a while and shouted again, "Brother, you guys come out quickly! Look who's here!"
Lv Songli came out and saw Xue Xu at the door at a glance, "Mr. Xue, you're here? That's great!"
Her letter had just been sent out, and Xue Xu came so quickly? Lv Songli calculated the speed of her letter. Even if she rode at full speed, it would only arrive in Longcheng at most. She thought she would have to wait for another two days.
However, with Xue Xu here, everything is ready, except for the east wind. When her father comes, they will be able to go to Xianbei as an envoy or negotiate with Xianbei.
"It's not just me who's here, look who's here?" Xue Xu said, and stepped aside.
When the familiar figure appeared, Lv Songli's eyes widened in surprise, "Dad!"
Lv Desheng: "My daughter!"
Lv Songli didn't expect her father to arrive in Houcheng so quickly. This was really unexpected.
Xue Xu smiled slightly on the side. They arrived in Xiangping first. After learning from Ma Jin and others who stayed behind that they were transferred to Houcheng, he chased them non-stop.
Lv Desheng was also very excited. After three months, they finally met each other.
He took a look at him. He was not very thin and his complexion was OK. He looked pretty good.
Lu Desheng greeted Qin's mother and the rest of the Qin family one by one.
Qin's mother asked him to go in and rest, but he refused. "Time is urgent. I will go to the Houcheng government office to make a handover with the current county magistrate Chen Qiao, get the county magistrate's seal, and confirm my identity first."
Lu Songli also knew that business was important. "Dad, after you take over Houcheng, please get an official identity for Mr. Xue." This will be useful.
"Okay."
Zhou Da led several brothers to personally escort him to the Houcheng government office.
