Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

After seeing off Li Sushan at the gate of the city, Wang Xiujin floated home, not because of what Li Sushan did to shock Wang Xiujin, but because the sky suddenly changed, yesterday he was only wrapped in a cloak and did not feel cold, today it suddenly blows With the cold wind blowing, I really don't know if the group going north to the border can withstand the sudden change of weather.Entering the warm room, Wang Xiujin shivered, rubbed his face, gave up the idea of ​​running, and shrank into the bed, he needed to sleep for a while, he was so sleepy.

The fourth prince and his party went there for more than a month, and when they came back, they were already approaching the new year, not much earlier than last year.In the past month or so, many things have happened in the capital. For example, General Li held down the superiors of good joints, and even grabbed several superiors. After several rounds of interrogation, he asked A lot of things happened, and thankfully, the people who planned to send them to the workshop didn't succeed.Wang Xiujin was really relieved, he didn't care about being learned, but he still responded.In addition, according to those captured, they tried to bribe some officials, but failed.

Unless it is a stupid person who wants money but not life, whoever dares to take this money, if it is really found out, it will not only be a matter of the nine clans, but will also be recorded in the records of the historian, and will be remembered by the world as such. As long as normal people don't want to.The emperor was very relieved when he saw the results of the investigation, and he was less angry, but he still had to beat and beat Annan. If he wanted to go out independently, whoever agreed.

"Your Majesty, it's better to be polite first and then to be a soldier." Annan was originally a part of Daliang, and took advantage of the chaos to be independent. If there were no troubles, the emperor would have forgotten them in a corner, but they were restless and insisted on coming out to show their presence and do things to death. , regardless of the consequences.First send an envoy to convey the holy will. If the other party obeys, it will save the trouble of fighting, and you can also record the local terrain, which can be convenient for future marches.

As soon as this proposal came out, the courtiers agreed immediately, so who to send became a problem. Ordinarily, it should be a matter of Honglu Temple, but the emperor felt that their eloquence was not good, and the most eloquent was the one who was the most eloquent. The civil servants, when they quarreled one by one, they were sharp-tongued, turning the court into a vegetable market, but they really made them do something, and they all shrank back, and no one wanted to stand out.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to share your worries." Sir Wang came out and bowed his hands, Lord Wang knew that even if he really wanted to go, the Emperor would not let him go.

Immediately after Mr. Wang came out, someone came out to flatter him, saying that Mr. Wang is very eloquent and that he should be the top candidate. After this person finished speaking, he heard the emperor's cold snort, and his heart skipped a beat, knowing that he was going to be bad.What is Lord Wang's status, how can Lord Wang be sent as an envoy, it's just that the words have been spoken, how to get them back, this person was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his head.

The turmoil in the court was not as good as Wang Xiujin's anger at this time.When Wang Xiujin learned that the fourth prince and his party were about to enter the capital, he put down what he was doing and ran to the city gate to wait. After a short wait, he saw a group of horses followed by several carriages. Xiu Jin didn't think much about it, he looked for Li Sushan among the horses in front, but no matter how he looked, he saw Li Sushan's figure, not only did he not see Li Sushan, but there were three or four fewer riders in front than when he went, Wang Xiujin My heart immediately hung up, could it be that something happened again?Taking a closer look, even the Fourth Prince was not in the equestrian team ahead.

"Prince Wang." The leader of the horse riding team in front was Li Sushan's lieutenant, Liu Qing. Before Liu Qing, Li Sushan and Wang Xiujin had been to Qiucheng, and when he saw Wang Xiujin, he jumped off his horse.

"Where's the fourth prince and Commander Li?" Wang Xiujin tried his best to keep the expression on his face calm.

"The fourth prince is all right. Commander Li and the other two brothers were injured in the carriage behind." Liu Qing didn't hide it, he knew that Wang Xiujin would be Li Sushan's wife after Jin, so he couldn't hide it.

Wang Xiujin pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes, he knew it was not safe to go out with the fourth prince. "How's the injury?" You didn't come back on horseback this time, could it be that the injury was worse than last time?Thinking of this, Wang Xiujin became a little anxious.

"It's not serious, because you don't have to hurry back, so you can recuperate in the carriage." Liu Qing couldn't say why he was injured, but the extent of the injury can still be explained.Wang Xiujin didn't ask any more, knowing that Li Sushan was not serious, he let it go halfway, but he didn't see anyone, so he still couldn't let it go completely, but this is not a place to talk after all, and the fourth prince and Li Sushan still need to enter the palace, so he also He couldn't stop him anymore, so he let Liu Qing continue on his way.Liu Qing cupped his hands, got on his horse and led the team away.

Watching the people leave, Wang Xiujin had no intention of doing other things, so he turned around and got into the carriage to go home.Wang Xiujin originally wanted to go to the General's Mansion, but when he thought about Li Sushan's return home after entering the palace, he couldn't wait in the General's Mansion all the time. Who knows whether the matter reported by the fourth prince and Li Sushan is big or small. No one came back tonight.

When Wang Xiujin got home, he saw his father had just come home from court and was eating. I don't know if this meal is breakfast or lunch, maybe it should be called dinner?It's past lunch time now, so what happened today.After his father had eaten, Wang Xiujin just mentioned to his father that Li Sushan had returned from injury, but before his father could speak, he saw the housekeeper running in. "Master, there are personal attendants in the palace, please come into the palace."

Wang Xiujin hurriedly packed a few snacks and put them in his father's cuffs. Not long after the fourth prince returned to the palace, he announced his father to enter the palace. It was probably not a small matter, and he didn't know what to talk about before he could come back. If he kept talking about tomorrow morning, these snacks I'm afraid it's not enough.The snacks are specially prepared for my father to go to the morning court. The ancient morning court time is really not ordinary and inhumane. You have to go to court at three o'clock, don't talk about it, nothing major happens, and the morning is also early, so my father can come back and take a nap. , You can still have breakfast at home before going to the yamen to work. If you encounter trouble, let alone catch up on sleep, you may not even be able to eat breakfast.Like today, eating together in the morning, noon and evening, not to mention a common occurrence, would come once in ten days and a half months.I wrapped a few more pieces for my father and let him put them in his arms. They were all soft cakes, even if they were deformed, they would not affect eating.

Mr. Wang entered the palace with his relatives from the palace, and then he did not return all night. The next day, there were rumors of sending troops to the border. , There was a lot of quarrel before, but there was no news of sending troops to the outside.If troops are really sent, will Li Sushan, who just came back from the border and is still wounded, go to the border again?

It was the first time for Wang Xiujin to experience what it was like to be a relative of a soldier. He admired soldiers, but only after he truly became a relative of a soldier did he realize what it was like to be always on the lookout.After Li Sushan returned to the capital, Wang Xiujin has not seen anyone. He went to the general's mansion, but Li Sushan didn't live in the mansion. The housekeeper said he hadn't seen Young Master Sun come back, but he heard that he went to the barracks, but he promised that if Young Master Sun returned , and asked Young Master Sun to find Young Master Wang.Wang Xiujin, who has not seen anyone, once again sighed that the ancients were backward in technology, and it would be more convenient to have a phone.

After returning home, Wang Xiujin realized that there was going to be a war, otherwise Li Sushan would not have come back. He didn't even return home, so he went to the military camp, and the general's mansion seemed to have no master.Wang Xiujin thought he would see his father when he returned home, but he learned from the housekeeper that his father hadn't returned yet, and it seemed that it was the end of the year.

If the pissing behavior of the officials in the past was followed, the battle would have to be delayed until later in the year, but now the civil officials are more supportive of the war than the military officials. Those who don't know the inside story think that the officials in Daliang are very belligerent. In fact, the civil officials are It's really hard to say, they are afraid that if they say something that they don't support, they will be suspected by the emperor of collaborating with the enemy!So the battle that could have been delayed until the next year, with the strong support of the civil servants, first the emperor ordered troops and generals, and then the Ministry of Households sent food, grass, and herbs, and then the large troops set off.

After the soldiers set off, Li Sushan, the visitor welcomed by the Wang family, came to the door with gifts.This time it was General Li who led the army, and Li Sushan was not on the march because of his injuries. Although he strongly expressed his willingness to go to the battlefield, he was still rejected. Of course, it was not General Li but the fourth prince who refused.

Before this, Wang Xiujin had always thought that Li Sushan was also one of the soldiers. How could he have thought that when Li Sushan came to the door suddenly, he thought he had auditory hallucinations. When he saw the person, he was relieved to see that Li Sushan had no other changes except that he had lost some weight. . "You, didn't go out?"

Li Sushan nodded, "Before, I was busy helping my father with dispatching troops, so I didn't have time to come here, which made you worry."

Wang Xiujin looked at Li Sushan, "You, where were you injured before? How did you get injured?" Now that the soldiers have been dispatched, he should be fine after asking.

"When I came back from the border, I found a group of people attacking. Although they were wearing Liang people's clothes, their appearance and accent sounded more like barbarians. There were many of them, and we had few people, so we had to retreat while fighting. When we retreated outside the city, thanks to the help of the guards in the city, we were able to wipe out the opponent's team, and after leaving a few survivors, they asked some questions." Li Sushan briefly talked about the scene at that time, but in fact, there was nothing he said. It was so easy, if it wasn't for the quick reaction, they might have confessed there, and they didn't just suffer minor injuries.

Wang Xiujin also knew whether it was as simple as Li Sushan said, but it was not good to ask more questions. After seeing Li Sushan's injury, Wang Xiujin knew that Li Sushan did not lie. That's all, but fortunately, I wear a lot of clothes in winter, and the incision is not deep enough to cut through the skin.Looking at Li Sushan's wound, Wang Xiujin suddenly had the idea of ​​making protective clothing for soldiers.
