When Hua Mulan Met Zhu Yingtai

This time, there was no Hua Mulan to analyze the pros and cons for her, and there was no Qin Wu's caring comfort.Her eyes were smeared, and she was put on the fire and roasted without knowing anything.

Compared to Xie Chau directly offering chips in exchange, Hua Mulan's way of asking for her opinion made her feel more comfortable.Besides, she has been in the post station for less than a month, and her life is quite comfortable, and she really doesn't want to go to another strange place.

Receiving Hua Mulan's encouraging eyes, Zhu Yingtai opened her mouth: "I..."

The sound of heavy military boots came from far and near, and finally came in.

Zhou Xing came in hurriedly: "Banzhu, the new postman from Mobei City."

Hua Mulan raised her eyebrows: "Oh, really? Let me have a look."

Hua Mulan took the post newspaper casually, Zhu Yingtai looked at it curiously, but her pupils constricted for a moment.

Zhu Yingtai was taken aback by the unique logo of the second-level post newspaper on the cover. There is a second-level post newspaper for the New Year's Eve?Could it be that there is another problem at the border?

Hua Mulan looked at ten lines at a glance, smiled instead of anger, and handed the post newspaper to Xie Que: "Treasurer, people do no harm to tigers, but tigers do hurt people's hearts. Before we can slow down, they want to put us in danger." dead."

After reading it, Xie Qu said with disdain: "I'm not very capable, and I'm not afraid of the wind. I'm not afraid of the tongue flashing. This time, I will leave this matter to the old man. If I don't settle his bad debts, I will always help me." Never give up."

Hua Mulan cupped her hands and thanked: "There is Lao Treasurer."

"It's also the old man's business. That bastard Huang Fatty doesn't even have two thousand shi in his granary. Let's see how pitiful he is. He only needs one thousand shi to risk his life to save him. This guy doesn't blush, but he dares to report to the labor force He gave us two thousand shi of grain, and we have to pay him back a thousand shi of grain."

"He is not someone who cares about this little food. In my opinion, Zuo is just trying to drag me into the water."

Xie Qu was confused: "Pull you into the water?"

Hua Mulan's words awakened Xie Chu: "Does the treasurer still remember the story of Tai | Ancestral Lao Army?"

Xie Qu thought for a while, and then slapped his forehead suddenly: "Yes, yes, how did the old man forget this! The thief actually has such a vicious scheme."

"I followed the old rule this time, so I dared to ask for a thousand shi of grain from Fatty Huang. But if this number doubles, it will not be a problem that can be solved by following the old rule of Tai | Zu. Point out Maybe you will be charged with some crimes, being a bandit or causing trouble to friends and neighbors is considered light. It was also my carelessness, and I didn't realize that Fatty Huang had such scheming."

"He's as stupid as a pig, let alone you, the old man doesn't even believe that his brain can be so good. Most likely it's the one who wants to get in the way, taking the opportunity to provoke the guard..."

"The treasurer said carefully, that person is still yours..."

Before Hua Mulan finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xie Ke: "I'm sorry, it's a shame for me to mention that guy. I lie in the shade of my ancestors all day long, and who cares about him? Like."

Hua Mulan showed a wry smile when she heard the words: "Anyway, please pay more attention to the treasurer. I heard that the time for your majesty's body is running out, and spring will begin soon. The barbarians are still trying to trick us. The situation in Mobei cannot be turbulent anymore. gone."

"If everyone is like you, there will be no worries in the northern border."

Zhu Yingtai, who shrank aside and listened to the whole process, said silently: "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome."

In an instant, two people, with four eyes, stared at her in unison.

Zhu Yingtai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said weakly: "May I ask, how big is that granary? That is, how many steps you have to walk left and right."

Xie Qu: "Why are you asking this?"

"I have learned a little "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and I can count."

In the next second, Xie Qu rushed over like a hungry wolf, and directly grabbed Zhu Yingtai's wrist.

Unfortunately, he was not caught, and he was stopped by Hua Mulan halfway.

"Treasurer, respect yourself."

Xie Qu turned a deaf ear: "You really know "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"? Brat, don't stop me, I'm going to make a decision on this person!"

"She didn't say she wanted to go to the Quartermaster with you, the treasurer."

"Stinky boy, you..."

Zhu Yingtai and Zhou Xing glanced at each other, and they both chose to sit on the sidelines. The two big bosses lost their temper, and neither of them could be offended.

There was a flutter of chickens and dogs, oh no, chickens and eggs, no, after the restlessness, the situation in the hall tended to be stable.It's just that the stagnant atmosphere made Zhu Yingtai's hand holding the pen tremble slightly.

These two Shangguan who walked around her with expressions more serious than the masters of ethnology made her suspect that a bamboo board would fall into the palm of her hand in the next moment.

Zhu Yingtai, who never thought that the miscellaneous things she learned when she was bored, would become the capital of her life and success, checked it twice, carefully dried the ink stains on the paper, and handed it to Xie Quen.

"Between [-] shi and [-] shi? What do you mean?"

Zhu Yingtai was even more respectful to Xie Que, a hot-tempered boss, than Hua Mulan: "Because there is no field survey, I can only come up with an approximate figure, but I can be sure that the granary can't hold two thousand stones. food."

"That's enough. Those who are knowledgeable will know it at a glance. This yellow fat man burned all the account books under the pretext of horse bandits attacking the city, and forcibly put such a shit pot on my head. Now Stealing a chicken won’t cost you a lot of rice, it’s kind of funny to think about it. When it falls into my hands, I have to peel him off.”

The heroic general laughed, showing a bit of his unique childishness, which made Zhu Yingtai's heart full of sacrificial joy.

It turns out that I can help, and it feels so good to be affirmed.

After resting at the post station for half a day, Hua Mulan and Xie Chu led the people to Mobei City.

The next day, Zhu Yingtai also left the station and went to the Qin residence.

The [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month came almost instantly, and after Qin Zhai took the time to take two satisfying late sleeps, Zhu Yingtai resumed her usual routine.

"Cracker, crackle." Waking up early in the morning, Zhu Yingtai saw Qin Wu and Qin Yu playing with firecrackers around the charcoal basin.

The so-called firecracker is to burn bamboo to make it burst and make sound, which has achieved the effect of driving away evil spirits.

Seeing the two siblings having so much fun, Zhu Yingtai couldn't help thinking badly, and walked around behind them with her hands clasped.

Sure enough, drinking lightly made the two siblings jump three feet high. The little adult Qin Yu showed embarrassment at being discovered, and the impatient Qin Wu even rushed over to tickle Zhu Yingtai.

"I wish..." Under Zhu Yingtai's gaze, Qin Wu changed his words with difficulty, "Brother."

Then a coolness came from the back of the neck, but it was Qin Wu who took the opportunity to stuff a handful of snow, Zhu Yingtai jumped up in the cold, and said angrily: "Sanniang, how dare you! Give me a blow!"

The two had a snowball fight in the courtyard like this, and accidentally hit Qin Yu who was watching the battle from the sidelines.This was incredible, and it directly led to a three-party melee, and the courtyard fell into a sea of ​​joy.

When Hua Mulan pushed open the door, a snowball was flying towards her, she caught it and crushed it.I saw Zhu Yingtai smiling happily in the courtyard.

Hua Mulan suddenly felt relaxed. She has been working in Beacon Tower for almost a year, and this is the first time she feels so relaxed.

"Here, steaming dumplings." Hua Mulan, who used to be stern in the past, took off her indifferent mask in the Qin residence, and with a smile on her face, she brought the dumplings to the table under the expectant eyes of everyone.

"I'll come first, I'll come first, I want to find someone wrapped in copper coins, and I will make a fortune in the coming year!" Qin Wu waved his chopsticks and was the first to shout out.

"There are no rules." Qin Yuan knocked off Qin Wu's chopsticks and reprimanded.

Seeing this, Hua Mulan hurried out to put out the fire: "Master Qin, today is thirty, and the small households don't beat their children during Chinese New Year. Why do you still do it? Come Sanniang, brother will give you dumplings."

Qin Wu couldn't even mention how happy she was after being sheltered. Seeing that her elder brother lost her temper at the words of her elder brother, she happily brought the bowl to Hua Mulan.Zhu Yingtai raised her head and looked at the smiling face that was close at hand, and suddenly felt a little bit of a taste in her heart.

"Come on, you have it too." A warm voice sounded, and a round dumpling jumped into Zhu Yingtai's bowl.Looking up is Hua Mulan's wheat-colored face.

Zhu Yingtai was suddenly a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Thank you."

The five people were happily eating dumplings here, but a rush of horseshoes broke the atmosphere completely: "Banzhu, Banzhu, the capital is eight hundred miles away, the emperor, the emperor has collapsed."

Zhou Xing, who had always been prudent, almost broke open the door and rolled in. The post newspaper in his hand had red characters on a white background, and the red A characters almost burst into tears.

At this time, Zhu Yingtai had just bitten through the dumpling, and knocked the copper coin hidden in it to her teeth.

After taking the post newspaper in Zhou Xing's hand, Hua Mulan's complexion became extremely complicated after reading it at a glance. She knew that the emperor's health was not good, but she never thought that the emperor would die at this juncture.

The first month is the most relaxing time for the common people, and many soldiers in the military camp have gone home for the New Year.If Rouran got the news and launched a dangerous attack at this time, the consequences would be disastrous.

Even though her heart was about to explode with anxiety, Hua Mulan still gave the order without haste, asking Zhou Xing to send someone to deliver the order.

Zhu Yingtai summed it up in two points: mourning in uniform and calling soldiers back to camp.

When Hua Mulan got up and strode away, Zhu Yingtai also chased her out.

Looking at Zhu Yingtai who was following behind her, Hua Mulan was full of impatience: "What are you doing here?"

Zhu Yingtai, who just ran to catch up with Zhu Yingtai, took a few breaths and said, "I know that there is only one team in the city stationed in the barracks, and the other teams have all returned home. You must be short of manpower. I want to help you." you."

Hua Mulan took a deep look at Zhu Yingtai when she heard the words, then nodded and said, "Yes."
