rebirth will be hard to find

According to Li Lin's family history, he loves water conservancy. When he was young, he traveled all over the world, so he was well-informed.Not to mention that as Chu Yi's companion, he must have been carefully investigated by Chu Zhao. The last time he mentioned the matter of kerosene, he even registered in front of His Majesty the Emperor. At this time, it was Chu Yi who brought it up. It also feels very appropriate.

Li Shangshu did not expect that his son would be missed less than a month after he became an official. He has been an official in the court for many years, so he naturally knows that the water in Qizhou is messy. thing.As for his stupid son who is devoted to water conservancy, if he is really sent to Qizhou, he is afraid that he will be gnawed by those people until there is no bone left!

Without even thinking about it, Li Shangshu declined and said, "Your Highness loves me very much, but I'm afraid I won't be able to cope with the situation in Qizhou as a fledgling child."

Chu Yi was determined to torment Li Lin, and immediately waved his hands and said, "No problem, His Majesty can send him there with a secret decree. Li Lin has just become an official, and he happens to be immature, so let him go to the Huaihe River without knowing his identity." He dangled around in the water and didn't make contact with local officials, so no one would recognize him, let alone get into any trouble."

It was just to see the Huai River, Chu Yi didn't count on him at all about Qizhou's official affairs, if he was really counted on to deal with that pool of muddy water, maybe he would really drown in it.After all, they have been together day and night for two years, and it's fine to toss and toss when they are angry. Chu Yi really didn't want to push people to a dead end.

Hearing what she said, Li Shangshu had some confidence in his heart, so he didn't delay any longer, only thinking about asking Li Lin to bring in more people to make sure.It's best to go to the Cheng family to borrow a few more people, their guards are the hardest in the capital.

When Chu Yi came up with an idea, Qi Shangshu didn't reject it outright. After all, he was a stingy man, and he wouldn't ignore the country's major affairs.However, money can be paid, but how much is paid has to be counted, and the name of iron rooster is not for nothing.The estimated value of the construction of the embankment on the Huai River had to wait for Li Lin to go to the field to investigate before he could come to a conclusion, so he argued with the Minister of the Ministry of War about the Beizhou army's money and food.

Qi Shangshu is full of eloquence, and his bargaining skills are three points better than the women who buy vegetables on the street.Even though it was not the first time seeing Chu Yi, the corners of his mouth twitched, his face was speechless, and then he moved to Chu Zhao's side worriedly, and asked him in a low voice, "Brother Emperor, is the treasury empty?"

Chu Zhao's face was full of helplessness, and then he replied in a low voice: "The taxes in the first half of the year have just been put into the treasury, and there have not been many natural disasters* in the past two years, which is still sufficient."

Chu Yi nodded in understanding, and when he looked at Qi Shangshu again, his speechless and helpless expression was put away, and replaced with full of admiration.After all, he bargained so hard for other people's money, the Minister of the Household Department really did his duty.

Qi Shangshu was very good at bargaining, and he cut off a third of the money and food that Shangshu of the Ministry of War originally asked for.When Chu Yi heard it, his brows jumped, and he began to worry that Cheng Zian, who was still on the way, would not be able to eat enough because of Qi Shangshu's harshness after he joined the army in Beizhou? !

But obviously, this kind of worry is superfluous. Although Yuan Shangshu of the Ministry of War has a bad face, he also agrees with this number.Of course, these professionals are more reliable in estimating the amount of money and food needed for marching and fighting. Since they all think that there is no problem, then there must be no major problems.It should never happen that there is not enough food to eat during a war.

The matter has come to a conclusion for the time being, and the three ministers resigned. Chu Yi did not forget to remind Li Shangshu: "Summer is here, and the Huai River may rise due to heavy rain at any time. The matter of Qizhou cannot be delayed. Master Shangshu still Let Li Lin get on the road as soon as possible."

Hanlin, who was in charge of drafting the decree, had already drawn up the secret decree, and Chu Zhao had already stamped the seal, and then gave the secret decree to Li Shangshu.Naturally, Li Shangshu couldn't shirk it, he accepted the secret decree respectfully and complied.

That night, the whole Shangshu Mansion was flying like dogs and dogs, and Li Lin stood at the door of the room with a dazed expression, watching a roomful of maids packing his luggage for him.It never occurred to him that he had a farewell meal with Cheng Zian two days ago, and his little friend just set out on the road today, and he would leave Beijing with him tomorrow!And the time is so tight, I don't even have time to say goodbye to people, and packing my luggage is like fighting a war!

Mrs. Li was still on the sidelines, Master Shangshu was not in a hurry to do his own business today, but stood aside, and also repeatedly urged: "The water in Qizhou is too deep, you must not touch it. Those who are officials Yes, don’t bother with any of them, if someone recognizes you, just say you’re on a tour, just take a good look along the Huai River.”

Li Lin wanted to cry but had no tears: "Father, why don't I go? In such a rush, why are you going to visit the mountains and rivers? It's clear that you are rushing to reincarnate!"

After hearing the words, Mrs. Li quickly "bah" twice, and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are going out, of course you have to be safe."

Lord Shangshu also stared at the words: "The imperial decree has been issued, can you still resist it? This time, His Highness recommended you to His Majesty, no matter what you do, don't mess things up, and His Highness will lose face with you!" After finishing speaking, he added a little secretively: "That Your Highness is not simple. Although you have some friendship, please don't offend her."

Li Lin nodded with a heavy face, it was the first time that he felt that his father was really astute!

His Highness is narrow-minded and likes to play tricks on others. He doesn't know how many times he has been tortured by His Highness in the past two years.And in the current situation, could it be that he offended His Highness again at some point?

Li Lin focused his eyes and thought carefully, but after much deliberation, he obviously only sent a letter to Zi'an recently!Even if Zian left in a hurry, the two of them didn't see each other again, but what does it matter to him? !Could it be because of this that the innocent man was implicated in a good way? !

Your Highness, you are so capable and narrow-minded, why don't you go directly to Zian to settle the score? !

******************************************************************************

After Cheng Zian left Beijing, Li Lin also quickly embarked on a trip to Qizhou.

Chu Yi found that his life suddenly became boring. He listened to and discussed politics every day, wandered around the Ministry of Industry for a few times, and occasionally helped Chu Zhao deal with some memorials. The whole day was gone quickly.

Chu Yi didn't know what was going on with Li Lin, but Cheng Zian's journey was fine.Because of the hot weather, they didn't walk very fast, and they walked as far as possible on the official road of Taiping. There was no accident along the way, and they walked fairly smoothly. After walking like this for more than [-] days, they finally arrived in Beizhou Territory.

Heimiao would still fall into a coma during the day, so she didn't know what happened.It wasn't until Heimiao woke up one day that Cheng Zian told her that he was going to the military camp the next day, that Heimiao didn't know that Beizhou had finally arrived.

This place in Beizhou is desolate, chaotic, and barren. There is almost no good word for it. It is completely incomparable with the prosperous capital.

Chu Yi's first impression of this place was not good, but she knew very well in her heart that this was a border gate where wars frequently broke out, and it was supposed to be like this, and there was no need to ask for more.Just thinking about Cheng Zian staying in such a place for a long time, she felt a little distressed.

Early the next morning, Cheng Zian went to the military camp alone to report.

The Cheng family's name is much louder in the army than in the capital. Even if Cheng Qian is a drag, Cheng Yuan's name is enough to deter everyone.What's more, whether it is Lu Heng from Xinzhou or Qi Yang from Beizhou, they actually fought with Cheng Zian's great-grandfather and grandfather in the past. This friendship is still there today, which is one of the reasons why Mrs. Cheng can rest assured that Cheng Zian will join the army.

There is a difference between being taken care of and being taken care of unattended. At least Cheng Zian doesn't have to start from the bottom of the ranks and live in a tent with a group of men.She was kept by Qi Yang's side as a personal guard, and this personal guard will continue until the beginning of the war. If she makes military achievements on the battlefield, or wins the championship in the big competition once every three months, then she can be eligible to be sealed as a school Wei, there is no need to squeeze with people anymore.

Cheng Zian had just arrived, and he was settled well. On the contrary, it was Chu Jingmo who encountered obstacles when he wanted to become a military doctor in the military camp.

She is a decent female medical officer, her official rank is not low, and no one doubts that her medical skills are not good, but her gender is enough for the army to reject her——except for Chu Jingmo and the twelve she brought, there are no other women in the entire barracks .Although the doctor has nothing to do with gender, the treatment of trauma often requires physical strength. Not to mention the inconvenience of Chu Jingmo entering the military camp, even her soft and weak appearance is enough to make people refuse.

Chu Jingmo is indifferent, but not weak. Although he is not annoyed by being rejected, he will not give up easily.So after demonstrating his superb medical skills and his strength of [-], to ensure that even if he can help in the limited area of ​​healing trauma, he will never drag others down in wartime, Qi Yang finally reluctantly puts people to death. stayed.

Chu Jingmo and Twelve stayed in the medical tent, and the two were assigned to a separate tent. With Twelve's vigilance and force, they naturally were not afraid of harassment by some unruly soldiers in the army.

Naturally, Hei Miao was left at Chu Jingmo's side. After all, there were many cats in the medical tent and no one would take care of them. Unlike Cheng Zian who lived near the main tent with Qi Yang, there were so many people.

So far, the three people and one cat who went to Beizhou have been settled properly.

Heimiao sleeps soundly every day, wakes up at night and sneaks towards the main tent.Chu Jingmo and Twelve immersed themselves in a pile of medicinal materials, occasionally showing their injuries.Cheng Zian practiced with a group of personal guards. Her lianzhu arrow and family-inherited marksmanship are all extraordinary, which quickly won everyone's respect and approval for her.

Life in the military camp was not easy, but it wasn't difficult either. Cheng Zian adapted well.

The battle in Beizhou did not come as quickly and suddenly as written in Qi Yang's memorial, until Cheng Zian served as his bodyguard for more than half a month, and when the summer was coming to an end, the first battle between Beizhou and Yan Kingdom The war finally kicked off.
