Looking to Chang'an from the North

"I'm not worried about you." Lin Chuhuai turned his head to avoid the man's fingers, his face flushed a little, he didn't know if it was from anger or something, but there was a hint of concealment in his words.

"Okay, okay, you are worrying about the sake of the lieutenant and the future." This is a bit perfunctory.

"Since you know this, why did you make such a decision." He looked up into the man's eyes.

Those eyes that were always smiling and a little bit unscrupulous were serious and deep at the moment, as if they could suck people in with just one glance.

Xia Yizheng said with a rare stern expression, "Chang Yun, we have no choice, even if we know that this is a game he set up, we can only jump down willingly."

At that moment, Lin Chuhuai understood his helplessness, and his tone suddenly slowed down, "Then have you thought about the consequences? If the army loses due to lack of food in the future, the people will not blame the court, but only the court." As a general, you will only think that you are incompetent, and all your mistakes will become Xiao Yu's excuse to pull you off."

Xia Yizheng just looked at him quietly and didn't answer, but all the answers lie in the silent gaze.

"So Changyun, I will guard everything you care about. I will wait for you, and I will wait for you to stand side by side with me, to see the prosperity of the country and the peace of the people."

Such a sentence that was originally blurred in his mind became clear at this moment, and Lin Chuhuai immediately remembered the conversation that night.

That's right, how could this person not know the consequences, it's just that he chose to bear everything silently.

He suddenly realized that the person in front of him was a little different from what he remembered.After seeing too much of his stubborn and unruly appearance, and hearing more about his heroic deeds, he found that he had never really understood this person seriously.

This young general who is in command and guards the frontier is no longer the boy who only bullied himself with snow dumplings and played tricks on him maliciously.

Now he stands taller than himself and is more able to give the people the stability they want.

Lin Chuhuai stepped forward and wrapped his arms around his waist. This was the first time in his life that he took the initiative to hug someone. He couldn't explain why he did this, probably like a moth in the cold night seeing that A cluster of flames ignited his heart, and he jumped on it so foolishly, because at this moment he felt that the fire was cold, and he wanted to give him warmth.

"Plop, plop", he put his head close to his chest, and clearly heard the sound of the heart beating faster.

Xia Yizheng just opened his hands like this, feeling a little at a loss for a while, when he came back to his senses, he gently put his hand in his arms and patted the man's back again and again, coaxing, "It's okay, the car is in front of the mountain There must be a way, the front line is still unknown, and the court may not necessarily run out of food, not to mention that there are some food reserves in the northern border these years, the situation is far from as bad as you think."

He felt that he hugged him just because he was worried about this?He patted himself on the back because he thought of himself as a child.

But Lin Chuhuai also knew in his heart that his words were just to coax himself. Since Xiao Yu had made such a calculation, it might be difficult to get the military salary that the court should have when the war resumes.

He came out of this man's arms, poured a cup of tea and drank it in small sips, only felt that he was a little impulsive just now, and the things he did were not like what he would do normally.

But when he saw the man standing next to the table, Lin Chuhuai was suddenly happy.There was something wrong with this person since he was hugged by him, and he was at a loss to be precise.

When teasing myself on weekdays, it is not serious in every way, but instead of taking the initiative, it looks like this, which is very interesting.

Lin Chuhuai drank the tea in his hand and went to the hall. It was a bit rude to drag this person back to the room just now, and Xia Yizheng also recovered from the daze just now.

The two people sitting in this hall are still the same as before, and they are not angry about this matter. After all, it is reasonable for the husband and wife to have some private things to say.

Since Xia Yizheng wanted to use military rations to solve Qingzhou's urgent needs, there was a way to overcome the current predicament for the time being.

The two-day period came soon, and before Lin Chuhuai could go to the Yan Mansion, the old lady Yan went to the Governor's Mansion first.

He went to sit in front of the hall, and didn't say anything false, just asked for the answer, "I don't know if there will be any reply to what my lord promised me earlier."

Lin Chuhuai asked Yunshu to serve tea, and when he found a solution, he would not be as flustered as before, "The March food that the old lady asked for for the people will arrive in Qingzhou in a short time."

Hearing this, Na Yan clasped his palms together and recited Amitabha, "Thank you, I am here to thank the emperor for his kindness."

"Thank you for your kindness, the old lady may have thanked the wrong person." Lin Chuhuai's tone was very flat when he said this, but the displeasure in it was obvious.

It didn't sound like he would say it.

The Yan family didn't know why, and was a little puzzled, "I don't know what your lord means."

"The imperial court is also short of food. This food was originally for the soldiers in the northern border. If you want to thank, you should thank the person who made this decision." The last piece of fig leaf.

Yan looked at the people in the hall, not knowing what to do for a moment, Xia Yizheng glanced at Lin Chuhuai and then at the old man, sighed and said, "You don't need to thank, it is the duty of an official and a general to save the people where."

After hearing this, Mrs. Yan understood a little bit, stood up tremblingly on crutches, and wanted to bow down, "I am on behalf of the 30 people in Qingzhou, thank you General Gao Yi."

Xia Yizheng hurried forward to help, and finally sent Yan away.

Glancing at Lin Chuhuai, she felt a little helpless but not a blame, "Why did you tell her these things?"

"Doing bad things and wanting to be famous in vain, why is there such a good thing in the world." In the end, he just felt unfair for him.

Such impulsiveness is not like this person's temperament.

Xia Yizheng actually doesn't care whether the people know the truth or not, these things are secondary to him, as long as the matter can be resolved, it is enough for the people to be happy.He did these things to ask for no one's gratitude or thanks.

Based on his understanding of Lin Chuhuai, they were the same kind of people, and he would not have specifically emphasized who did it, but it seemed that his Chang Yun was aggrieved for him.

Xia Yizheng's conjecture was very close to Lin Chuhuai's heart. If he did this by himself, he really didn't care if he would be misunderstood, but he just couldn't see that this person had to contribute to the emperor's achievements even though he had endured so much.

Another day later, the grain and grass escorted by Zhao Hu arrived in Qingzhou. Seeing that the empty granary was filled up again, Lin Chuhuai felt a little relieved after he kept worrying about it.

No longer worrying about the people's food and clothing, then it is time for him to complete the task assigned by the emperor.Although the deduction of food was subjectively done by Xiao Yu, this year's unusual floods were not caused by him, and there must be other reasons.

Xia Yizheng accompanied him to search many surrounding villages, but they couldn't find the reason. In the end, the two decided to go upstream along the river to Jizhou to have a look.

Although the area of ​​Jizhou is also located in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not very affected by the flood.

Lin Chuhuai and his party said goodbye to Jiang Han outside the gate of Qingzhou City. The matter here is over, and it is time for He Jingzhi to return to Beijing to report on his duties.

Jizhou is not far away, it will arrive in less than two days, and Zhao Long will greet him at the gate of the city.Xia Yizheng has a house in Jizhou, so the group doesn't have to go to the inn.

This house is located in the downtown area, it is a big house with three entrances and three exits, the inscription on the door says Xiafu.

As soon as he arrived at the door, a steward led a few servants out to greet him, and opened his mouth to call Master Xia Yizheng.

He seldom showed up in Jizhou, and most of the things were handed over to his subordinates. The servants he hired only knew that his master was a big family in the spice business.

Xia Yizheng still had some things to ask Zhao Long, so he asked Zhao Hu to accompany Lin Chuhuai to look at the residence first, and if there was anything that didn't suit him, he could change it now.

The design of the yard is simple and elegant, which won Lin Chuhuai's heart.

It's just that the name of the main courtyard is somewhat interesting, Muhuai courtyard.

Seeing people staring at the plaque all the time, Zhao Hu scratched his head and explained, "Is it true that the words are a bit unreadable, but it was inscribed by the general himself. Calculated the date, it was probably three years ago when the courtyard was just completed."

This word really doesn't match the elegance of this courtyard, the strokes are too sharp, it seems too rough and heroic.It is not surprising to hear that it was written by that person himself.

It's just that the name of this hospital is easy to make people think, but since it was written three years ago, it may be different from what I thought.

Just as Lin Chuhuai was about to take a step towards the courtyard, he heard Zhao Hu calling out to the general in a loud voice.

"Okay, you don't need to accompany me, you go down and rest first."

"Yes." Zhao Hu cupped his fists and prepared to leave.

"Wait, come back."

Hearing this, the people who had already walked a few steps immediately stopped and turned around, waiting for the next order.

"There are no generals or lords here, only Xia Zheng, a wealthy businessman from the south of the Yangtze River, do you understand?" If you want to make an unannounced visit, you shouldn't reveal your identity.

"Yes, my subordinate understands."

"En." Xia Yizheng waved his hand to signal that he could go down.

Seeing Zhao Hu disappear around the corner, Xia Yizheng looked back at the people around him, "I'm quite satisfied with this residence."

Lin Chuhuai nodded lightly, "Very good." Much better than the design of the Hou Mansion.

"Then why don't you go in and take a look while standing outside the courtyard." Saying this, Xia Yizheng looked up and saw the plaque he had inscribed at the beginning.

I didn't think it at the time, but looking at the word now, I find it a bit garish. My literary attainments are still not good enough.

But Changyun is beside him. If he came up with this word, it would be more meaningful.

"Chang Yun, do you feel that the words on this plaque are not in harmony with the layout of this courtyard?" Xia Yizheng didn't know that Zhao Hu had exposed his old background.

"It's okay." Knowing the origin of the word, even if he really felt bad, Lin Chuhuai would not say so.

okay?How does that make him continue.

Xia Yizheng paused for a moment, "But I don't think it's good. I wonder if this courtyard was ever lucky enough to have Chang Yun's handwriting."

The author has something to say: Lao Xia: I am happy, being hugged by my wife.
