Chapter 27 My Soldiers and Horses(1/2)

The five thousand soldiers and horses sent from Jiannan Road were obviously more intimate than the ten thousand soldiers and horses sent to Taiyuan Prefecture.

When Mrs. Li heard that Mr. Zuo was serving the meal, she comforted her by saying that the eldest lady was guarded by ten thousand soldiers and that she didn't need to worry. After that, Mrs. Li called Li Fengchang and scolded Li Fengyao.

"I am his mother, he is the only one who has me, and his daughter is only his daughter. This unfaithful and unfilial bitch." Mrs. Li slapped the table, crying and scolding, "I gave his daughter 10,000 yuan."

There are only five thousand soldiers and horses here, and if I gave birth to him and raised him, he is not as good as a little girl."

After scolding Li Fengyao, he cried again for Li Fengan.

"My son, you died early to let your brother dominate."

Li Fengchang, who was kneeling in the hall, was a little confused. If Li Fengan was here, the Taiyuan Mansion would have to send many troops and horses. It is natural to distinguish between close relatives and distant relatives.

Who among them dares to say anything? Does my mother know how to scold? I have long been used to it...

"Mom, mother." Li Fengchang hurriedly comforted him, "keep your voice low."

Li Mingqi's replacement of the eldest lady is a secret.

"The eldest lady has an unusual status, so the third brother sent more troops and horses." Li Fengchang explained, "And the soldiers and horses are sent there not only to protect the eldest lady, but also to protect the Xiang family. Taiyuan Mansion also has to entrust it to her. After all, the eldest lady is the Xiang family.

The daughter-in-law of our family is here, and she must stay with the Xiang family."

Mrs. Li snorted.

Li Fengchang stepped forward and held his mother's knee: "The third brother is taking us to Jiannan Road. Five thousand soldiers and horses are enough. When we get to Jiannan Road, there will be not only 10,000 soldiers and horses, but also 34,000 and 50,000."

No matter how much I want, I will protect my mother."

Mrs. Li said: "I won't go to Jiannan Road. Jiangling Prefecture is fine. I won't leave my home. I grew up here and I will die here."

When did Mrs. Li become so brave? When she heard about the rebellion and that the rebels were thousands of miles away from Jiangling Mansion, she was so frightened that she couldn't sleep at night and had her yard patrolled and guarded all the time.

Now that Ankang Mountain has occupied the capital and the rebels have spread to half of the southeast, she is no longer afraid?

Li Fengchang really couldn't understand the woman's thoughts, so he could only continue to persuade her. Zuo told him that his mother didn't want to go to Jiannan Road because she was afraid that she would no longer be the master of the family there.

"Why do you think so? My mother will still be my mother when she gets to Jiannan Road." Li Fengchang frowned, just like he was still Li Fengyao's brother when he got to Jiannan Road. He has to make the final decision on matters in Jiannan Road. Thinking of this, he can't wait to go.

How can men and women be the same? Zuo laughed and said, "My mother is not familiar with the place in Jiannan Road. No matter how filial my third brother is, once the door is closed, she won't be able to do what she is not allowed to do if she doesn't want her to know."

What else should a mother do? Li Fengchang frowned. He had to say that his mother's temper was getting weirder and weirder, probably because she no longer had the suppression of her elder brother...

"Let's ask them to send more troops and horses over there." Zuo didn't bother to explain, so he just gave suggestions.

In fact, she didn't want to go. The journey was so far and the outside was so chaotic, especially near Jiannan Road. Jiangling Mansion was now very safe, with guards all around to keep the rebels at bay.

Later, the new emperor ascended the throne in Linzhou, and the Zhenwu Army Wu Ya'er led an army of 100,000 to suppress the rebellion. It was expected that the rebellion would be over in a short time, so there was no need to risk all the way to Jiannan Road.

Li Fengchang was persuaded by his wife and finally agreed, writing a letter asking Li Fengyao to send more troops.

Li Fengyao didn't know what kind of medicine he had taken, so he wrote angrily saying that he had no more troops and asked them to come to Jiannan Road quickly.

Li Fengchang became angry immediately. This third brother thought he was in charge of Jiannan Road, so he regarded himself as Li Fengan and ignored him as his eldest brother. If he went to Jiannan Road, would he have to make a living under him?

In terms of seniority, he is the one who should obey orders in Jiannan Road.

Li Fengchang ignored Li Fengyao and wrote letters to Jiannan Daofu in the name of his mother and to Li Mingyu, directly asking for troops.

Li Fengchang wrote two letters and received four replies. In addition to the bullshit reply from the government office controlled by Li Fengyao, Li Fengyao's heart-pounding reply, Li Mingyu's nonsense letter promising to immediately send troops to Jiannan Road, and a letter from a man named Han Xu.

written letter.

Han Xu said that there were no soldiers and horses to protect the Li family in Jiannan Road, but only soldiers and horses to protect Daxia. He immediately transferred the soldiers and horses back. If they wanted to come to Jiannan Road, they would follow the soldiers and horses back. If they didn't want to come, just leave it alone.

Already.

Li Fengchang was shocked and angry. Of course he knew about Han Xu, but why was Han Xu not dead yet? Why did he still run to Jiannan Road? Jiannan Road was going to be taken away by Han Xu!

He didn't care to scold Li Fengyao anymore, and hurriedly wrote to Li Fengyao to warn and remind him. He also wrote to Xiang Yun, asking him to guard Jiannan Road...

Letters came and went, soldiers and horses were in chaos, and time passed. When everything was in chaos, Jiangling Mansion suddenly became in crisis.

With Ankang Mountain firmly established in the capital, Ande Zhong devoted himself to meritorious service to avoid being robbed of his father's favor by the brothers who stayed with his father. He changed his caution and led an army of 70,000 to attack the southeastern roads and conquered more than ten states in just a few days.

The government fell.

Jiangling Mansion was suddenly exposed to the iron hoofs and guns of the rebels. Some people even saw the rebels. Fortunately, they were just the vanguard of the rebels and escaped with their lives.

There are not many troops stationed in Jiangling Mansion. These days, Li Fengchang has been exchanging letters with Li Fengyao from Jiannan Road. The five thousand soldiers and horses from Jiannan Road have been stationed in the barracks of Jiangling Mansion. The barracks of Jiangling Mansion are very generous, a fertile land with no shortage of food and grass, and they are respected.

Governor Li of Jiannan Road.

"Captain Li is from Jiangling Prefecture, and Jiangling Prefecture and Jiannan Road are one family." Jiangling Prefect said enthusiastically, and he paid for the food and drink for the five thousand soldiers and horses.

I was very happy that the government came forward to resettle Li Fengchang, and thought it was a matter of course.

However, the soldiers of Jiannan Road took the initiative to help patrol and protect the territory of Jiangling Mansion. They were the first to discover the movements of the rebels.

When she learned that the rebels were about to attack, Mrs. Li was no longer afraid of leaving her hometown and immediately went to Jiannan Road. However, five thousand soldiers and horses and the garrison of Jiangling Prefecture were on guard to fight the rebels.

Li Fengchang sent someone to summon him, and the soldiers and horses came back quickly after hearing the summons.

Li Fengchang used the gold and silver at home to buy food and grass. Mrs. Li didn't care about the comfort of the carriage and horses, she only wanted to be able to travel easily, but it was not that easy to leave.

There are many slaves in the house. Who can be taken or not taken? The joy of being taken away and the horror of being left behind. The relationship between father, son, mother and daughter among the slaves is complicated. The three daughters-in-law all want to bring more of their own confidants. The girls around the ladies have parents.

It was difficult to leave, the young masters could not resist the tears of the red-sleeved waiter, and the house was in chaos.

They were not the only ones in the Li family. People from the Li family, as well as in-laws and friends came to see him, praying that he could be taken to Jiannan Road with him.

In addition to family members and friends, people from Jiangling Prefecture also surrounded the Li family mansion.

Seeing thousands of elite soldiers lined up at the city gate, the people felt joy and expectation. When they learned that these elite soldiers were leaving, they all ran to the Li family's mansion and knelt down to beg to accompany them.

The Li family suddenly seemed like an isolated island surrounded by storms, and the door did not dare to be opened at all.

"Why don't you dare to open?" Li Mingran said, "Soldiers and horses come in to open the way. Who can stop it?"

She was sitting in the back room of Mrs. Li's room, with a tall locked box on the bed behind her. She was looking nervously outside through the window, holding two clay dolls tightly in her arms.

This was her favorite clay doll. There were originally a set of five. She served her as a real doll every day, eating, feeding and playing with her. However, for the opportunity to go to Jiannan Road, those girls competed to be the girl holding the doll, and they fell three times.

indivual.

In order to prevent not being able to keep even one baby, Li Mingran simply held it by himself day and night.

Li Minghua smiled: "Then we will never want to go back to Jiangling Mansion again in this life."

Use Daxia's guards to drive away the people blocking Jiangling Mansion, and they may even threaten them with swords and guns. There may even be excited people who rush forward and get injured by the eyeless swords and guns.

If the entire Li family leaves Jiangling Mansion like this, it will definitely be recorded with the rebels in the future official records. It is said that Li sent troops and horses to drive the people away from the city.

If they act like this, they will be despised by everyone.

Li Mingran held the baby and wondered: "What's going on? Rich people in the city go to the mountains to offer incense and use their servants to drive away passers-by. Many of them are trampled by horses and beaten with sticks, and many of them alarm the government. Jiang Ling is not seen.

The government cannot accommodate them."

Li Minghua picked out two words from her words: "domestic servant."

When a domestic servant behaves, it is a small evil committed by the master. But now the Li family is not commanding the domestic servants but the guards, which is a serious evil.

"Actually, people are selfish. The current guards belong to the people who control them." Li Minghua put down the small box in his hand.

It contained her most valuable jewelry, and her mother told her not to give it to anyone. She was facing a life and death crisis, and her personal maid did not dare to trust it too much.

"If we had left in the first place, there would have been no trouble."

"Now that a disaster is approaching, we want to escape on our own, so no wonder we are resented and cursed by others."

Li Mingran understood a little bit and snorted: "Who told them not to have an uncle? No, their cousin is the governor. They should blame themselves."

Li Minghua smiled and said: "What you said is right or wrong. In short, now our Li family can either be good people or evil people."

"How to be a good person and how to be a bad person?" Li Mingran asked curiously.

Li Minghua said: "The evil ones are us who used soldiers and horses to clear the way without taking anyone with us. Only our family left decisively. The good people are us who stayed and lived and died with everyone."

Li Mingran glared and shouted: "What kind of good guy and bad guy are you? This is clearly a living person or a dead person!"

Even a fool would not seek death if he could live.

Li Fengchang thought like this at this time. He looked at the Jiangling prefect standing in front of him and thought, did he look like a fool?

"Master Hu." He sighed, "Aren't you making things difficult for us?"

The prefect of Jiangling wore official robes, looked haggard, and his voice was hoarse: "I know, my request is really rude."

He leaned over and covered his face, and the seven-foot-tall man who was the head of the sage and a descendant of the saint began to cry.

"It's just the life and death of thousands of people, I can't bear it..."

"Mr. Li, you are also from Jiangling Prefecture, and so is the Governor. This is your hometown, and these are your fellow villagers."

Li Fengchang stretched out his hands to cover his face: "Sir, it is not my wish to suffer disaster in my homeland. It is also painful for us to leave our hometown."

Before he could cry, there was a cry outside the door.

"My son, you died early." Mrs. Li rushed in surrounded by a group of women, knocked away the Jiangling magistrate who lowered his head and hid his face, sat on a chair and cried loudly, "Your mother is going to be forced to

If you die, even if you leave your filial piety and let soldiers and horses protect your mother, after all, you are gone and you can't stop others from bullying your mother."

Li Fengchang breathed a sigh of relief and stopped crying. He put down his sleeves and rushed over: "Mother, mother, that's not the case. Don't worry."
