Xie Feng!
I didn't doubt him from the beginning. Even though I knew he had escaped from prison, I gave me this prompt after seeing the young man in the casino.
Qinghan said that if that young man appeared here on behalf of Lord Ye, the reason would be very simple, because the armor is used for combat. Lord Ye, as the descendant of Marshal Pingxi, would definitely want to get such exquisite armor.
But the young man's actions were his own actions.
But Xie Feng, behind him was Pei Yuanxiu.
Pei Yuanxiu has already proclaimed himself emperor in the capital, but his position is not easy to do. What he has to face is not only Pei Yuanhao's possible counterattack at any time, but also those forces loyal to Pei Yuanhao in other places, and some forces that have also ambitions and have begun to be ready to move. Even for him, chasing Pei Yuanhao's remaining forces is also a tough battle.
Then such armor is of great significance to those who want to arm their own army!
Perhaps Xie Feng had other purposes for escaping from prison this time, but seeing such armor, he was happy to see the hunt, and it was not surprising that he took action.
If it was him, then I hope it was really just him for it by chance.

Because of the hot weather, I didn't eat well for dinner, so I just drank a bowl of soup. I was just a little worried and afraid that Qinghan would not eat well. When I pushed the door out, I happened to see Zhesheng coming out of his room. I whispered: "Zhesheng?"
As soon as Zhesheng saw me, he hurried over: "Senior Sister."
"You go see him?"
"Well, my senior brother seemed very tired today. The old man was scolding him while giving him an injection. I didn't dare to speak and came out."
When I heard that Yao Lao was taking care of me, I felt relieved and asked him again: "What are you doing with him?"
Zhesheng said: "It's for the incident yesterday."
Then I remembered that he seemed to have some impression of the Longxi garrison and asked hurriedly: "Have you found something?"
Zhesheng was frowning, with an apology on his face: "No."
"No?"
I sighed in disappointment.
Seeing me like this, Zhesheng said even more guiltily: "I'm sorry, senior sister."
I hurriedly smiled and said, "This is not a big deal, and it is worth telling me that I'm sorry."
His cheeks flushed slightly, and he said, "I really have the impression that I have seen records about the Longxi garrison in a book. I was afraid that I would not remember clearly, so I went down to ask a few junior brothers. A few days ago, they were like me, and they compiled historical books with my teacher. We read a lot of previous records. Two were specially arranged to read books that recorded military affairs. As a result, they had no impression."
"oh?"
I raised my eyebrows slightly.
This dynasty - I know that Pei Yuanhao did not send garrison troops to Longxi, but there must have been garrison troops in Longxi during the previous dynasty. Otherwise, who rescued Dad Hu’s ancestors?
However, the records they checked were not.
Where did Zhesheng see it?
I vaguely felt that there seemed to be hidden inside this matter, but everything I knew was not enough to let me find out about this hidden situation. I thought about it and said to Zhesheng solemnly: "Zhesheng, I believe in your memory. The students taught by the teacher will never remember anything randomly. Or you go back and think about it and ask if anyone else remembers it. By the way, the general of the garrison died in battle to protect some merchants."
Zhesheng frowned and remained silent for a long time and said, "Okay, I'll go back and think about it."
After he left for a while, Miaoyan had dinner and rested, so I took her out with me.
|
As the sun sets, the whole world cools down, and sitting in the carriage is not so stuffy.
I saw Miaoyan holding a small bag in her hand, and asked her: "What are you holding?"
"It's my own money."
"Money? What do you bring money to do?"
"I want to help them."
Looking at her eyes that were so clear that they could almost reflect my appearance, I felt a little warm, and I felt a little funny, and said softly: "Silly girl, you don't have to help them."
What I said was that I didn't need to help them, not that they didn't need to help. Miaoyan immediately looked at me in surprise, because since I was a child, I had been telling him to be helpful, and my current attitude obviously shocked him a little.
He hesitated and said, "Mom, do you say, don't I help them?"
"yes!"
"Why?"
I smiled and pointed her nose and said softly: "Silly girl, have you forgotten that Dad Hu himself has a iron shop?"
Miaoyan was stunned.
I smiled and said, "They can't get that money."
"Then why do you still have to pay back the money for that person?"
"Because if I don't help him pay back the money and ask Dad Hu to pay it back, he will have to sell his iron shop. In that way, the family will have no place to live. If his son wants to go gamble again, he will really have to gamble that family."
“…”
"I helped them pay back the money because I was anxious to save them, but what should I do next? It depends on themselves."
“…”
"This is what doctors often say, only cure diseases, not lives."
"Only cure diseases, not lives?"
Miaoyan murmured and repeated this sentence. I looked at him thinking and didn't bother him anymore. The two of them sat quietly. In a short while, we arrived.
When I got off the bus, I saw Miaoyan hesitating for a moment and put the wallet aside.
When we entered the iron shop, when Dad Hu saw us, he immediately came forward to kneel down. Miaoyan was startled and shrank behind me. I hurriedly reached out to support him and said, "Old man, you have already made my birthday like this. My daughter is still here, so you must not do this."
Seeing this, Dad Hu could only keep saying, thank you very much.
He took us upstairs, and Aunt Hu also came up to make a fuss. I finally persuaded them to do it. I looked up and saw Hu Liu lying on the bed, with a cold water veil covering his forehead. I asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"I was frightened. When I came back, I felt feverish and nonsense. I just fed some medicine and it was much better."
"You have to keep a close eye on him in the future."
"That's natural. You can't let the lady spend the 200 taels of silver in vain."
"It won't be in vain!" Mr. Hu said loudly next to him: "Miss, please rest assured. Old man will definitely find a way to pay it back. My iron shop is worth it--"
I hurriedly raised my hand to stop him and said, "Old man, I helped the son pay off his debts because I had too much money. I just couldn't bear to see you being forced to die for the gambling debts and having his wife and children separated. If you are forced to pay back the money and sell this iron shop now, wouldn't that be the same result? Wouldn't I become another casino owner?"
Dad Hu looked at me: "But, I can't let you--"
I said, "Of course, this money is not really spent in vain. You have to pay it back, but don't worry. Besides—" I looked up at him, looked back at the wooden rack, and said with a smile: "I'm here for this trip, and I want to ask you something."
Dad Hu immediately felt sorry for it: "Is it for that set of armor again?"
I smiled and agreed.
Dad Hu frowned, looked at me, then looked at the Miaoyan next to him, and then said, "Who are you two? Why are you so interested in the old man's armor? That armor has been passed down from my ancestors for so many years and has been safe and sound. Why have so many people recently made up their minds to hit it?"
I said, "Old man, it doesn't matter who we are. In fact, we don't have the will to seize your armor. However, every man is guilty of being guilty of being a treasure. Speaking of which, the armor was born for war. Now it is not peaceful outside. If the war is like this, the armor will naturally not be safe again."
He was shocked: "Is someone stealing that armor to fight?"
When he heard us say something about war, his wonderful words seemed boring, so he helped Aunt Wu to take care of Hu Liu on the other side.
I slowly walked to the wooden stand and reached out to touch the crimson-red clothes.
Before, I only paid attention to a set of armor, but not this dress. It has a very good texture and is very thick to touch. It will be stored for so many years in the future without decay. It is indeed very good.
I whispered: "This general is in the sky. I know that so many years have passed and people are still talking about him, so I will definitely be very touched."
"General?"
Dad Hu was stunned for a moment and turned to look at me: "This benefactor is not a general."
"Not a general?" I was also a little dumbfounded: "Dad Hu, are you saying that the owner of this set of armor is not a general, but an ordinary soldier?"
"yes!"
I immediately tightened my eyebrows.
Qinghan didn't say that this kind of chain mail is very expensive, and even ordinary generals may not be able to afford it. How could he wear this set of armor and save Dad Hu's ancestors just an ordinary soldier?
Can an ordinary soldier afford such armor?
I hesitated and said, "Old man, have your ancestor remembered it wrong?"
Dad Hu immediately said, "Remember wrong? It's impossible. Even if you can remember other things wrongly, it's the benefactor's business. How can you remember them wrongly? My great-grandfather clearly told my grandfather and my father and the others that the person who saved him was a soldier wearing that armor. He met those thieves on patrol alone. If he was a general, the show would definitely be big!"
“…”
This, his words make sense.
But I always felt something was wrong in the middle, so I turned around and looked at the crimson clothes. I said softly: "Dad Hu, then do you still remember that benefactor served in which army?"
He was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "This... so many years have passed, and the old man really doesn't know."
“…”
