The frontier guard inspection is useless, as long as a few slings of money are stuffed into the officers and soldiers on duty, they will be released without even looking.

After leaving Changping Pass, Li Wei asked his personal guards to pull a few carts of goods for sale, and took his own people to survey the terrain. Changping Pass was still a day and a half away from Baiye City. According to estimates, those people in Chang'an were either in Ping County or in Liuyeji stayed for one night, and then set off to Baiye City the next day. They could only set up ambushes in these two places.

After surveying the terrain around Changping Pass, Li Wei continued to go to Ping County. At the same time, Mr. Zongfang, the constant attendant of You Sanqi, led a thousand Imperial Forest Army with more than [-] carts and set off for Baiwu Pass. The prefect Li Gang sent another [-] soldiers and horses to accompany him as guards.

In order to make it easier for his precious son to remove the tribute silver after the robbery, Li Gang paid all the money this time. Even so, he still loaded nearly [-] carts. If it was a big money, at least [-] carts .

Escorting so much tribute silver, even with [-] guards from the Royal Forest Army and [-] Jiayue Army horses accompanying him, Fang Zong still didn't dare to be careless. He scouted around to ensure the safety of tribute silver, and arrived at Baiwu Pass five days later.

Tang Tianhe, the guard of Baiwu Pass, led his troops out of the city to greet him. Fang Zong led the troops to cross the border without even taking a sip of tea. After entering Changping Pass, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fang Zong lived in Changping Pass that night, and set off early the next morning with a group of people. He was burdened with a heavy responsibility, and he dared not take it lightly, unless Gong Yin was escorted to Chang'an safely, he would feel at ease.

Lan Shaoping, the guard of Changping Pass, was Lan Yun's nephew. He sent two thousand soldiers and horses to guard Fang Zong's convoy.

The sky was not beautiful, and it was sunny when we set off, but it didn't take long for the sky to change suddenly, with strong winds, dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and a heavy rain was coming soon.

Fang Zong originally planned to go to Liuyeji to camp again, but the sky was not beautiful and the downpour was coming soon, so he could only order to change the route to Ping County.

Near Ping County, there was a torrential downpour, which drenched Fang Zong and everyone else, turning them all into drowned chickens.

The brigade continued to march in the rain, and when they arrived in Ping County, Zhu Jinsheng, the county magistrate of Ping County, led people out to meet them in the rain.

Ping County is a small county town. Apart from dozens of yamen servants to maintain order, there are only 150 soldiers stationed in the city, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. The captain of the team knew it well.

The small county town simply couldn't accommodate so many horses and horses, so the two thousand soldiers and horses at Changping Pass could only squeeze into the camp outside the city. Not only were the soldiers dissatisfied, but even the general leading the team cursed and greeted the ancestors of County Magistrate Zhu.

The [-] imperial forest troops led by Fang Zong were also having a hard time, so they could only squeeze into the temporarily vacated space in the city to build tents, surrounded dozens of carts in the middle, and surrounded more than a thousand horses, so that these pampered sons of heaven could kiss each other. Jun was so angry that he scolded his mother.

Zhu Jinsheng hosted a banquet in the county government office, Fang Zong was worried, so he gathered a group of Zhonglang, Jiang, Xiaowei, and gave them some instructions before he changed into clean clothes and went to the banquet.

A group of men will vent their dissatisfaction with curses, but Mr. Fang's confidant Shen Yunfeng's servant is staying behind in the camp, and they dare not make too much noise.

Tired and hungry soldiers cursed and put up tents in the rain, and then got into the tents to change clothes. Soldiers and officers on patrol scolded their mothers, but the military order was hard to violate, so they had to wear coir raincoats and stand bravely in the rain , greeting the eight generations of Shen Yunfeng's ancestors thousands of times.

Fortunately, the group of people sent by the magistrate Zhu was quick-witted. It didn't take long for the delicious mutton soup to be cooked. The tempting aroma made all the soldiers salivate.

Chapter 34 sleep baby

The heavy rain was pouring, and the tired, hungry, and cold soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army huddled in their tents to shelter from the rain, cursing Shen Yunfeng while cursing the thief God, and greeting his whole family and women all over the place, but no one noticed the soldiers standing guard at the camp gate. , The companions who first drank the delicious mutton soup fell down one by one like empty cloth bags, were supported by the guy who enthusiastically brought the mutton soup, and dragged into the temporary hut for cooking.

The fascinated soldiers lay sprawled on the pyre and fell asleep, even if thunder was heard in their ears, they couldn't wake them up. Someone stripped off their armor and put it on, and stood guard in the rain with their weapons attached.

Buckets of steaming hot and fragrant mutton soup were sent to the tent one after another. After the soldiers drank the mutton soup, they soon felt that their eyelids were too heavy to open, their heads tilted, and they fell on the dirty mud Sleep soundly.

One thousand imperial guards including Shen Yunfeng and dozens of coachmen were all knocked down by Mihunsan, with some exceptions, when they went to the latrine to relieve themselves, they were beaten from behind with a sap, and they lay down directly in the latrine.

Shen Yunfeng was knocked unconscious by someone with an iron sword while he was fully awake. At that time, he was enthusiastically practicing writing a thin-style book with a hard pen with a newly bought quill pen. He fell down one after another, startling him a lot.

His cries for help were completely covered by the sound of the rain, and he did not reach far. Instead, he summoned Ding Xi, the commander of the inner guard. Shen Yunfeng had learned bow riding, but Ding Xi used a sword before he could survive a single move. Blade passed out.

"Take him away."

Ding Xi hesitated for a moment, and ordered his confidantes to take Shen Yunfeng away, including his armor, sword, pen and ink and other personal items.

Nearly thirty carriages full of silver were parked in the center of the barracks. Someone brought the horses, put them on the carts quickly, and drove out of the barracks quickly, disappearing in the white rain.

"Young master, even God is helping us, hehe."

Holding an umbrella, Tian Ce stroked his long beard under his chin and laughed straight away. The whole operation went so smoothly that people couldn't believe it. He thought there would be a small fight. no more.

Such a surprisingly smooth operation was all due to the sudden heavy rain. The tired, cold and hungry soldiers lost their vigilance completely, and all huddled in their tents to avoid the rain, so the operation could be carried out smoothly.

"It's also indispensable to the master's ingenious calculation."

Li Wei's just-right flattery made Tian Ce feel a little ecstatic, and felt refreshed all over his body. The young master is still so young, but he already has the demeanor of a generation of enlightened masters, which is rare.

"Wow, they are all good war horses..."

Looking at the more than a thousand steeds surrounded by the barracks, Li Wei's eyes sparkled and his mouth watered. It's a pity that this is not his territory.

"Young master, if you can't bear it, you will make a big mess."

Tian Ce reminded at the right time that there is no way to safely transport the 80 tribute silver out of Hongfeng Province, let alone these specially branded war horses? "Pity……"

Li Wei sighed helplessly, with a heartbroken expression on his face, and walked away from the barracks in three steps.

The heavy rain was still pouring down, and there was a vast expanse of whiteness between the sky and the earth. At the west city gate, the soldiers in charge of guarding the gate and checking had disappeared. Dozens of carriages rushed out of the opened city gate, followed by a large group of people wearing coir raincoats and heads. The young and strong man wearing a bamboo hat or holding an umbrella, before long, dozens of riders rushed out and disappeared in the vast rain and fog.

In a remote farm more than [-] miles south of Ping County, Ding Xi, the commander of the inner guard, is commanding his subordinates to work hard.

This farm is behind the many secret strongholds of the inner guards lurking in Hongfeng Province. The Li Lan family has a feud, and Li Gang is naturally the focus. The inner guard secret agents lurking in Hongfeng Province are more powerful than those lurking in Chang'an many.

An altar filled with white flowers and silver ingots was moved to a large pit dug deep, then filled with soil, covered with wooden boards, beams and columns were built around, wooden boards were nailed on, and several layers of thatch were spread on top. I built a simple small warehouse.

The 80 taels of tribute silver had to be returned to Jiayue after the news had passed. As for the gentleman who had robbed Li Wei of a girl, Ding Xi had ordered him to bury him in a certain vegetable field as fertilizer. His personal belongings and The wooden boxes containing the silver were all smashed and burned as firewood.

After finishing these tasks, he will lead his people to a small market town in Changping Pass to take command, so as to cover the young master's safe return to Jiayue Province.

Li Wei Tiance and others galloped in the rain and arrived at Todian, a small market town near Changping Pass, for accommodation before dark. They were accompanied by the pale magistrate Zhu and his family.

County magistrate Zhu was also forced to do nothing. His wife, children, and children were kidnapped by Ding Xi's internal guards. If he didn't help Li Wei, he would be finished immediately. How many people are really not afraid of death?

In desperation, he helped Li Wei harm Fang Zong and several senior generals from Changping Pass. It was his only condition to abscond to Jiayue with his family. It would be a strange thing not to be punished by the Nine Clans. Fortunately, Li Wei kept his word. The only worry now is that after Fang Zong and the others woke up, they would send Kuaiqi to notify the Changping gate guard to close the gate, and no one would be allowed to enter or leave the border gate at dawn.

Poison Lady Zhao Fengqin personally prepared the Mihun San, which is very powerful. If there is no antidote, you will not wake up if you don’t sleep for a whole day. He ordered the servants not to disturb him, and then dismissed several servants in the mansion, gave them a small sum of money, and let them fend for themselves.

A night passed like this. After dawn, the gates of the city were opened, and the common people were still busy with making a living as usual. The dandy carried the birdcage and walked the dog to molest the little lady.

Fang Zong and others and a thousand bewildered imperial guards were still sleeping soundly. One unlucky guy who went to the toilet to pee and was beaten from behind woke up in the middle of the night, but he was tied up tightly with ropes. Strong, with his mouth blocked by a rag, he struggled blindly for most of the night, and only broke the rope at dawn.

The highest officer was nowhere to be seen, and all the officers and soldiers were sound asleep, no matter how much you shook and splashed water, you couldn’t wake them up. The twenty or so carts loaded with tribute silver disappeared, and the soldier was so frightened that he couldn’t help himself.

After daybreak, Li Wei and others entered Changping Pass, stuffed an ingot of five taels of silver with the officer guarding the city gate, swaggered through the pass, and returned safely to Jiayue.

During this period, Pingxian County was in chaos. One thousand imperial forest troops were still asleep, and the two thousand soldiers at Changping Pass who were in charge of escorting the tribute silver were still awake, so no one could decide.

But it was about the guy who was eating on his neck, and the generals panicked for a while before they got together to discuss, and finally reached an agreement to close the gate of Pingxian County first, and divide the troops to search around the city and outside the city for dozens of miles, searching for tributes. Silver drop.

Lan Yun, the prefect of Hongfeng Province, has a headache. The 80 tribute silver has suddenly evaporated within his jurisdiction, and the assistant minister has disappeared. This is a big trouble. Take full responsibility to fill the big hole of 80 taels of silver.

Hongfeng Province was full of commotion, and Jiayue Province's prefect's mansion held a celebration banquet, which was very lively.

The robbing of Gongyin shocked the entire Qin Empire. The prefect of Hongfeng Province was overwhelmed with anxiety.

After this incident, Li Wei has demonstrated his extraordinary ability internally, won the strong support of the advisers headed by Tian Ce, and began to get in touch with the military and political affairs of Jiayue Province.

Chapter 35 "Medical Examination" Before Marriage

In April, it rains heavily during the Ching Ming Festival, and every household conducts ancestor worship activities. The big family is more lively, and large-scale sacrificial activities are held in the Zong's ancestral hall.

The month of worshiping ancestors is not suitable for marriage, but Li Taishou and his wife Su Yuejiao are eager to have grandchildren, so that the Li family can flourish. The Qingchuan Kong family is also eager to marry and consolidate the Kong family's foundation. Under the hint, the magic stick invited even calculated the auspicious day of marriage.

Ten days after the ancestor worship activities, surrounded by [-] cavalry, Li Wei, who was dressed in red and colorful, took more than a dozen carts of gifts, beat gongs and drums all the way, and went to the Qingchuan Provincial Government to marry his bride.

The magistrates of the prefectures and counties they passed along the way all led people out of the city to greet them and present generous gifts. Li Wei would not refuse anyone who came, and accepted all the orders. There were more than a dozen carts full of gifts in the huge welcoming team.

Five days later, the welcoming team arrived at the junction of Jiayue and Qingchuan. Kong Rong, the prefect of Qingchuan, sent his eldest son Kong Su to lead two thousand cavalry to meet them at the border.

Li Wei led [-] cavalry troops into the country, and the remaining [-] cavalry troops and a dozen carriages full of gifts stayed in the territory.

The eldest brother Kong Su is also a talkative and hospitable person. Although he has no talent, he is also quite satisfactory. In addition, he is the future helm of the Kong family. Li Wei intends to make friends. Become a good friend of a quilt.

A few days later, a huge wedding party arrived in Pingjin, the prefecture of Qingchuan. The prefect Kong Rong led the civil servants and military generals out of the city to welcome them.

For this wedding ceremony, Li Wei not only brought more than a dozen carts of gifts, but also ten beautifully crafted swords and a set of silver armor. Melt six, a set of silver armor for body protection.

It is said to be a precious sword, but it is actually a failed experiment in Li Wei's eyes, but in terms of today's iron smelting technology, it can be called a high-quality sword that makes generals jealous. The value of each sword is more than 20 yuan. , but also priceless gems.

The protection strength of the silver body armor is several times stronger than the best Mingguang armor today, and the weight is lighter. It is worth at least 50 yuan, and it is also a priceless treasure armor. I couldn't close my mouth with joy.

The marriage between the two families is very in line with Li's interests now and in the long run. All the confidants and generals under Kong Rong are in favor of it. In addition to Tianxianglou Dou Shi, Li Wei's nickname of poetry god has spread throughout the Cangyun Continent. The existence of a master rank is even more liked by the counselors. Many people automatically filter out his notoriety in the past. Even if they remember it, they just smile knowingly. Ridiculous things?

Li Fen, who has good deeds, even justified his name. Literati and inkmen have always regarded it as an elegant and interesting thing to hang out in brothels. They have never been obscene with prostitutes, so they cannot be regarded as colleagues in the cultural circle.

Furthermore, young people are not flirtatious, young master Li is young and rich, he is handsome, talented and knowledgeable, coupled with a prominent background, there are not many young ladies who take the initiative to throw themselves into his arms. Is it an indiscriminate means?Have you heard the allusion that if you can't eat grapes, you say grapes are sour?

It must be some jealous, low-quality guy who maliciously slandered and ruined Li Zongshi's reputation. As for Li Zongshi's ambiguous affairs with those little ladies, it's not obscene, it's a romantic, elegant and interesting story that people like to talk about .

Li Wei's various deeds, regardless of what people say, anyway, he received the most solemn reception in Qingchuan Mansion, under the hospitality, he was drunk for the first time, and was helped back to the room by the maidservants to rest.

In a daze, it seemed that someone took off his shoes, socks and clothes, and then, it seemed... had a very sweet and exciting dream... When he woke up, it was already noon of the next day, his head was heavy and heavy It hurts, and the throat is dry and smoking.

"Qing'er... water..."

Li Wei rubbed his swollen and sore temples, habitually waiting for Qing'er to serve him. The hangover felt terrible, his throat was dry, and he just wanted to pour a few pots of boiling water.

"The young master is awake."

A pretty maid came in through the curtain.

"Uh……"

Only then did Li Wei remember that this was not his Xiaoyao Pavilion, and instinctively pulled the silk quilt to cover his vital parts.

The pretty female maid's tender face was flushed red, she looked extremely shy, but she still lifted up the gauze quickly with her hands and feet, "My lord, my servant Xiaoya, I will take care of my lord's daily life from now on."

"Oh……"

Li Wei froze for a moment, the little girl must have been sent by his father-in-law to wait on him, right?

Xiao Nizi is quite lovely, and her beauty is not inferior to Qing'er at all.

He is used to Qing'er's service, and he is not ashamed to eat Guoguo in front of Qing'er, but today it is Xiaoya, and he feels a little uncomfortable.

It was obviously the first time for Xiaoya to serve a man, her tender little face was as red as the sun, she looked shy and nervous, so that her little hands trembled a little.

"Uh, Xiaoya, your feet..."

Li Wei noticed that Xiaoya's walking posture was a bit weird, as if her legs and feet were a bit inconvenient?The question was originally out of concern, but it made Xiaoya's cheeks flush even more, and her expression was extremely coy, "Master..."

"Uh, this is..."

Li Wei's gaze accidentally fell on the bed, and he couldn't help opening his mouth. Xiaoya lowered her head to make the bed. When the silk cover was lifted, a snow-white juan handkerchief was revealed, with bright red spots on it, as bright as a peach blossom.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew what it was. When she consummated the marriage with Qing'er, Qing'er was also so neat, with red spots and spots, to show her innocence. So, was the ecstatic dream last night real?Who is it?Li Wei scratched his head desperately, and his eyes fell on Xiaoya, who was carefully folding that juan handkerchief and hiding it in his sleeve, when his heart moved, he asked in a low voice: "Last night was... you? "

Xiaoya's delicate body trembled, her cheeks became more flushed, her head drooped in embarrassment, her little hands tugged at her sleeves uneasily.

If there is no squeak, it is tantamount to the default.

Li Wei scratched his head, and asked in a low voice, "Xiaoya, which room did you serve before?"

"The slave has been serving the little lady."

Xiaoya answered in a low voice.

"Oh, the miss asked you to come?"

Li Wei continued to ask in a low voice, he had to figure this out, otherwise there would be trouble.

"It's madam..."

Xiaoya lowered her head, her voice was as low as a mosquito, if it wasn't for Madam's order, how could she make fun of her own body?

Li Wei heaved a sigh of relief. This kind of thing happened in ancient times. Most of them happened before the princess got married. The maid was ordered to test whether Fuma Lord's treasure gun could be used normally. Unexpectedly, this thing happened to her.

For a moment, he couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed, and he was relieved that the girl in charge of the gun test was a little beauty of the Shameless Moon class. He heard that Miss Kong was also a famous beauty in Qingchuan, she was dignified and virtuous, which made him look forward to it.

In modern times, young people are very disgusted with arranged marriages. In ancient times, the orders of the elders cannot be violated. To be honest, Li Wei has never objected to arranged marriages since he traveled to this continent. He doesn't mind going to bed first and then falling in love , the premise is that she must be a beautiful woman.

Chapter 36 Little Lady's Request

This was just a sweet and ecstatic episode, to be exact, it was more like a pre-marital medical examination, and Li Wei passed the test smoothly.

However, this matter made him feel a little awkward. Fortunately, Mrs. Kong did not say anything, and only a few people knew about it.

According to the original plan, after Li Wei arrived in Pingjin, he rested for two or three days, mingled with the Kong family by the way, showed the sincerity of Li's marriage, and then took the bride back to Jiayue to get married.

But Master Taishan Kong Rong was too enthusiastic, and his brother-in-law Kong Su, who had a similar smell, tried his best to persuade him to stay. Li Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and stay.

In fact, the reason why he agreed to stay for a few more days was a letter from Xiaoya, which was written by the young lady of the Li family, that is, his fiancée Kong Rong who was about to marry.

The little lady of the Kong family spoke very politely in the letter, even with the intention of pleading. Li Wei always thought that he would be the most compassionate and cherish the beauty. How could he be hard-hearted and refuse the request of a beauty.

However, what gave him a headache was the so-called poetry club, which is most popular among literati, even women, the young lady of the Kong family is famous in Qingchuan for being virtuous and virtuous, and she is also quite talented, and most of her friends are famous people The literati, even a few close friends in the circle of ladies are also talented. They often hold poetry gatherings, and the famous god of poetry comes to visit. How can talented women miss the golden opportunity to ask for advice and see the demeanor of the god of poetry?

After Li Wei had breakfast, he greeted Mr. Kong Rong, Mr. Kong Lin, Mr. Taishan's mother-in-law, and talked with them. His decent performance made the two elders so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

Afterwards, accompanied by his uncle Kong Su, he visited the places of interest in Pingjin City, and there was another big banquet in the evening. He was so drunk yesterday that the smell of alcohol was uncomfortable. With the support of his mother-in-law, Kong Lin, he avoided the Toasted with many glasses, even if it is so, he was drunk by half or six.
