Wonderful Puppet

Chapter 406 Xiao Moyu and the Lieutenant General

Zhen Miao was really dumbfounded, she actually became one of the special envoys, and could go to Jingbei to condolences to the soldiers along with the team transporting the luggage.

After the shock, I was overjoyed and went to prepare things happily.

On the contrary, the old lady was a little speechless, and said to Nanny Yang with a complicated expression: "Is Dalang's daughter-in-law too generous, she didn't even ask how she became a special envoy, and she didn't have the slightest timidity when she went to the battlefield? "

Although it was the old lady's idea to let Zhen Miao go to the battlefield, but Emperor Zhaofeng really made the order, the old lady hesitated instead.

She went to the battlefield when she was young, it was because she had time to spare, and the daughter-in-law of Dalang was very delicate, if she made a mistake, she would regret it too late.

Nanny Yang comforted: "Grandma is worried about the son. Besides, she will stay in the rear city after she goes, and she will not encounter any danger on the front line. Madam, please rest assured. Maybe, after the son and the elder When grandma comes back, you can hold your great-grandson."

Only then did the old lady relax a bit.

She wanted Zhen Miao to go north, partly because of Zhen Miao's miraculous dream, which made her feel somewhat useful to Luo Tianxuan, maybe before she encountered danger, she would be able to warn her in her dream again.Another reason is that once the two armies start a war, it is often not resolved in a short period of time. Sometimes, after a war has been fought for years and years, there are not a few young men who go out and return to middle age.Dalang and his wife didn't even have a child, so they couldn't stand such torture.

I hope I can get what I want if I go here.

Of course, Zhen Miao couldn't go empty-handed, but she had to exchange the jewelry donated by the women's families in Beijing for supplies, as well as the quilted jackets and trousers she made, and bring them there as the queen's special envoy to reward the soldiers.

Naturally, this cannot be prepared in a short period of time. She also prepared a lot of things during this time.

Those silks and satins.Luxurious jewellery, of course, needn't be considered, furs and other things are packed in a few boxes, and after that, all kinds of easy-to-carry food are prepared.

For example, apples were cut into slices to make dried apples, and several jars of marmalade were also made.In this season in the north, we can’t eat green vegetables, so we drain and dry the green vegetables in the greenhouse and make them into dried vegetables. When we eat them, soak them in boiling water. Although they are not fresh, they also have a unique chewy texture. winter day.It should be considered a rare delicacy.As for beef jerky, pork jerky and other things, I have made a lot.

These days, Zhen Miao has been like a hardworking bee, hoarding food non-stop until she finally takes a breather.The day of departure is also approaching.

In the early spring of Jingde 15, it was still frighteningly cold, with icicles on the branches and a layer of snow on the ground.There were very few pedestrians on the road, and Zhen Miao was sitting in a tightly surrounded carriage.Following the long queue, they slowly left the capital.

This trip is not for fun and incense, so it is not good to bring more maids.Zhen Miao thought about it, and only brought Qingdai who had taken care of her body and Bai Shao who was stable, and after a few hours of walking, she asked the two to play leaf cards together to pass the time.

Hearing the laughter from the carriage, Xiao Moyu, the general of the transportation team this time, shook his head quietly.

Xiao Moyu was born in the Marquis of Yuanwei, and is Xiao Wushang's younger uncle.

After all, the Hou Mansion was worried about the fledgling eldest grandson, so they sent Xiao Moyu out.He is said to be a little uncle, but he is actually only in his 20s. For some reason, he has not married yet, and he was born as a concubine.

"Go and talk to Jiaming county magistrate and ask her to get off the car for dinner." He turned his head and said to the lieutenant beside him.

This kind of delicate and noble lady, it won't be long before she thinks about it, she will be complaining to the sky, and I don't know what the higher-ups think, and sent a female family member to act as a special envoy to travel with the army.

"County Lord, please get out of the car and have dinner." The deputy general was not yet 20 years old, and he still had the innocence of a teenager. He knew that the person sitting in the carriage was the person who wrote the recent popular little poem, or that he was of high status. The county magistrate couldn't help being a little nervous, but also a little curious.

The curtain was lifted, revealing a serious side face: "Understood."

The deputy general let out a sigh of relief, thinking that the county magistrate is really a serious person, it is hard to imagine that he would write such a tender poem.

But the looks... are the best.

Almost out of masculine instinct, this thought swirled in his mind.

Then the curtain of the car door was lifted, and a girl in Tsing Yi jumped down neatly.

Then the woman in white clothes got out of the car gracefully. She raised her head, glanced this way, nodded reservedly at the lieutenant general, then turned around and stretched out her hand.

The lieutenant involuntarily clasped his fists and saluted: "The young general will meet with Jiaming county master."

Bai Shao's originally calm movements were compromised, her hands couldn't help but pause, she wanted to understand that the man had admitted his mistake, she twitched the corner of her mouth in embarrassment, but she couldn't turn around to explain, she continued to extend her hand, and said in a loud voice: "Master, please get off."

The lieutenant almost fell off his horse, because he was so surprised that he accidentally gasped and coughed violently.

A white hand stretched out, slender, slender, perfect like a work of art, people can't wait to see the master's appearance.

Zhen Miao, who was wearing an ivory white jacket on her upper body and a blue pleated skirt on her lower body, supported Bai Shao's hand, and got off the carriage lightly, then glanced at the lieutenant general with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

The lieutenant's face turned red, he was a little bit at a loss, he saluted Zhen Miao in a panic, then quickly cast a glance at the expressionless Bai Shao, and rode his horse back to Xiao Moyu's side.

Xiao Moyu held the rein and looked up at the sky: "I don't know you."

"General——" the lieutenant blushed, almost crying in embarrassment.

"You can also admit that you are wrong, do your eyes grow on your butt? Don't say you are my lieutenant general, shame on you!"

The deputy general stopped blushing now, and muttered unconvinced: "Who made a maid next to the county lord look more magnificent than the girls I usually see?"

Xiao Moyu sneered mercilessly: "The girl's house you saw? The daughter of Rou Zhang who lives next door to yours? Your childhood sweetheart?"

The lieutenant general had blue veins on his forehead: "General, there is no such a slap in the face. Erya Zhang is not my childhood sweetheart. When I found King Yan at Zhuzhuzhang's house, that girl almost chopped up King Yan with a butcher's knife." !"

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but look back, looking for the figure of Bai Shao.

Xindao, it's not like others, even though she's just a maid, she behaves gracefully, calmly and generously!

Seeing Bai Shao who was close at hand, the lieutenant fell off the horse all of a sudden, got up in embarrassment and grabbed the reins, trying to get back up, the horse snorted in disgust, and left its master to look after itself.

The lieutenant stood there with a stiff expression.

Bai Shao was amused in his heart, and kept calm, he handed over a food box: "This is some food prepared by our county lord, please taste it with General Xiao."

The lieutenant reached out to take it, but before he could say "thank you", Bai Shao had already blessed his body, turned around and left.

He grabbed the food box and walked over to Xiao Moyu: "General, the food sent by Jiaming county master."

Xiao Moyu glanced at the exquisite workmanship and expensive wood food box, and sneered: "Eat it yourself, I'm not that particular."

The box must contain all kinds of candied fruit snacks, Jiaming County Mistress probably thought he was out for an outing, I really hope that in a few days, he won't be asked to buy snacks on the way.

"Then, the subordinate will eat it." The lieutenant sniffed, already smelling the smell of meat coming from inside, and couldn't wait to open the lid.

On the top layer is thinly sliced ​​stewed beef, the tendons are almost transparent, and evenly sliced ​​Yunhua ham, one side is sauce-colored and the other side is dark red. Together, it is really attractive.

Xiao Moyu's eyeballs almost popped out.

What about the preserved fruit?How about dim sum?

She is a noble girl, why did she bring braised beef and ham when she went out!

He squeezed the hard dry food and took a bite, it tasted like chewing wax.

The lieutenant's face lit up with excitement, he first grabbed a few slices of braised beef and stuffed them into his mouth to chew, then carefully opened the lower layer, heaving a sigh.

Inside was actually a pig's trotter, split in half.

"General, the pig's trotters are still warm!" He picked up half of one and gnawed on it, completely ignoring the grease stains on his mouth.

Hot trotters, hot trotters, hot trotters...

Xiao Moyu only felt that half and half pig's trotters were spinning in front of him, swallowed secretly, seeing that the deputy general had almost finished eating half of the pig's trotters, coughed fiercely, and asked: "Lieutenant Chi, is the pig's trotter really?" Is it hot?"

Deputy General Chi held the pig's trotter and nodded blankly: "Yes."

"I do not believe."

"It's really hot, General, I kid you not."

Xiao Moyu raised his eyebrows: "I'll try it."

Vice General Chi quickly wrapped the remaining half of the pig's trotter in oiled paper spread on the bottom of the food box and handed it over: "Once you eat it, you'll know."

Xiao Moyu took it, took a bite hard, and sighed contentedly: "It's really hot."

Vice General Chi blinked, and then he came back to his senses, and stuttered angrily: "General, you, you..."

Xiao Moyu smiled faintly, and wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth: "You don't have to thank me. Oh, is the stewed beef hot?"

Deputy General Chi hurriedly protected the food box: "This is really not it."

"no?"

Lieutenant Chi nodded sharply.

"Oh, let me taste it, is it cold?"

Lieutenant Chi...

Zhen Miao's act of sending pig's trotters pleased Xiao Moyu so much that when the horses and horses stopped in the town for rectification, they actually sent Vice General Chi to ask: "Is there anything the county lord wants to buy?"

Bai Shao handed over the purchase list: "I'm sorry for the trouble, Lieutenant Chi."

Deputy General Chi scanned the items on the list, was elated, and left happily.

Just like this all the way to the north, although it is already mid-spring, the sky is getting colder and colder.

There are few people in the north, and gradually, the number of people sleeping in the wild increased.There was a small stove on Zhenmiao's carriage, so it was convenient to eat some hot pastries. Most of the time, including Xiao Moyu, they ate hard dry food and set up a pot in the wild. It would be nice to be able to drink a bowl of wild vegetable soup.

On this day the motorcade stopped to light a fire for cooking, Zhen Miao got out of the carriage, followed by Bai Shao, carrying a basket covered in muslin.

"Is this the county lord?" (To be continued~^~)
