Step on a branch

Chapter 218
Hearing this, Qin Zhi's heart suddenly tightened.

The real reason is hidden in my heart, and it is impossible to explain it to outsiders.

"That's..." Qin Zhi rubbed his face, trying to force a smile, but he didn't need to look for a mirror, he knew his smile wasn't very good.

It can't be all his fault.

Born with bitterness.

Her smile is not as hearty as that of her father and mother, but as long as she frowns slightly, it is more painful than drinking Coptis chinensis.

That being the case, Qin Zhi simply smashed the pot and sighed: "My father won the battle, I am naturally happy, but as a son, I cannot serve him by his side, and I am really worried about his illness."

Upon hearing this, Grand Master Huang said, "Be filial to your child."

It is normal for a general to care about the war, and for a son to complain about his father's illness.

Fan Taibao also stroked his beard, and said: "There is an imperial physician accompanying me, and the old Hou Ye will be taken care of, so you don't have to worry about it."

Other people passing by, first congratulated Qin Zhi, and said: "Xiliang was defeated, Nanshu will definitely not rush to send troops, Laohou will return to Beijing soon, don't worry."

Qin Zhi didn't have time to reply to these words, Dong Shilang, who came out of the military department quickly, straightened his face instantly.

"What are you going back to Beijing for?" Dong Shilang said, "Why don't you take the opportunity to kill him and leave Xiliang alone?"

That side was taken aback.

"What a great opportunity, how can I miss it," Dong Shilang finished speaking, and said to Qin Zhi, "I was just reading the letter sent back by the old master, and I was really urging him every word. Go west. At this time, if you tell the old Hou Ye to retreat, it will not benefit his health."

With Marquis Yongning's temperament, he managed to win a big victory and took the lead, but he couldn't expand the results...

When I get emotional, I'm afraid I'm going to pass over again.

Having said that, Lord Hou didn't want to let go of this opportunity, and neither did the Ministry of War.

Going all the way to the west, regaining Xizhou and that large piece of land is the goal of the Great Zhou that has been engraved on the board of the Ministry of War since the founding of the dynasty.

In the past few years, I have not acted and just defended blindly. I thought that there would be no such opportunities again.

Unexpectedly, suddenly, the night cleared up, and the dawn light shone on his face.

Retire, soldier!

Dong Shilang didn't care about the people who had returned to the capital and the military affairs, among the Thousand Steps Corridor, the two elders in front of him were the ones who could influence the emperor's thoughts the most.

As long as Taishi Huang and Taibao Fan actively attack, then their main faction will gain the upper hand.

"Grand Master," Dong Shilang said, "I sent it back with the military newspaper, and there is also a letter from your family from Lingsun. I will send it to you later."

Grand Master Huang blushed: "Ashamed! Ashamed! That brat is really..."

The family letters and military newspapers of the soldiers usually go to the post office, but in terms of transportation, one is for normal transportation, and the other is for urgent transportation, which is not the same.

A letter from Huang Yi's family was able to be sent back, firstly because it was a favorable wind, and secondly, it was because of the honor of the Grand Master's grandson.

Taishi Huang knew this very well, since he took advantage of it, he had to pay attention to etiquette.

"Don't bother to send it," he said, "I'll take it right away, and I'll definitely say something about him when I reply, how could he be so careless!"

Dong Shilang led Qin Zhi and Huang Taishi in.

Shi Shangshu gave Qin Yin's letter urging grain to Qin Zhi, and Huang Yi's family letter to Huang Taishi.

Grand Master Huang opened it directly to look at it.

It is true that before Huang Yi's expedition, the two talked for a long time because of some differences in ideas and those shady methods, but the old grand master believed that Huang Yi would not write those things in the family letter blatantly.

In black and white, Huang Yi is not that stupid.

The old master is not afraid to watch in front of everyone.

Sure enough, in this family letter, he first greeted everyone in the family, saying that everything is fine, and please don't worry about the elders.

Let’s talk about what I saw at the frontier, what I experienced, how I felt, and I said that although the previous danger was dangerous, it was very lucky to be able to cooperate with Lin Fan and participate in the surprise attack, and I was also very moved.

All these years of hard work have not been in vain.

Those sweats and wounds fell to the ground and became the strength to serve the country.

Although I left Beijing not long ago, what I feel these days is completely different from what I experienced when I was on duty in Yuqian in the past few years. I am very glad that I can walk away from Beijing and have a look. idea.

At this moment, after a big victory, everyone is united and wants to continue westward.

As he said when he decided to join the army, he used his own way to think about how to become a pillar of the Great Zhou.

……

After reading the family letter, Grand Master Huang didn't speak for a long time.

Just looking at the writing style, there is almost no writing style at all, and it is far behind those articles that the old master praised.

Of course, such straightforward expression is not the true level of Huang Yi's writing.

No matter how much he likes to practice martial arts, he refuses to take the imperial examination. After all, Huang Yi is a child of the Huang family, and his basic skills are not bad.

It can only be said that Huang Yi chose to use this way of expression to face his grandfather.

There is no need for grandeur or sensationalism, just use the most everyday tone to tell the story, they are not teachers and students, but grandparents and grandchildren.

The simplicity and sincerity made the old master feel full of emotions after reading it.

At the same time, he also knew what Yaosun meant by writing a letter from home.

I hope that the old grandfather will actively lead the battle and buy more time and opportunities for the soldiers, instead of giving up the great opportunity, Xiliang will withdraw, and they will withdraw their troops in the next week.

Huang Yi won't take the initiative to do this, so don't guess too much, it must be the idea of ​​Marquis Yongning and Boy Lin.

Therefore, this book can arrive in Beijing together with the military newspaper.

Master Huang snorted softly.

The old and the young were playing tricks on him.

In ancient times, there was an old man who coerced the emperor to order the princes, and the old and the young were to coerce his precious grandson to make him do this and that in Beijing.

Really...

Taishi Huang raised his eyes, looked at Fan Taibao and Shi Shangshu who were discussing matters, and stroked his beard.

Just hit it.

He doesn't like to start a war indiscriminately, but he also knows when to fight and when not to fight.

After conquering Xizhou City and pointing directly at the center of Xiliang, the money he spent over the years will be returned ten times and a hundred times.

Putting the family letter in his sleeve, Grand Master Huang patted Qin Zhi on the shoulder, cleared his throat: "In my opinion, right now, the old Hou Ye is still needed to sit in Feimenguan and continue to put pressure on Xiliang.

He doesn't go to the battlefield, and there is an imperial doctor in the pass to take care of him, so you can rest assured.

Mrs. Hou is well-informed and understands the general situation, so she must be able to understand this, but you, my father and brother left the capital to fight, and the capital depends on you to preside over it, so you have to set a good example for the younger generations.

When you get out of the yamen later, don't look sad. "

Qin Zhi said "ah".

These words have two meanings.

It is in the interests of the Qin family that the old grand master is leading the battle; he has good reasons for worrying, so he doesn't have to worry about revealing his secrets.

Qin Zhi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, thanked him, and agreed.

Dong Shilang also heard it and gave Shi Shangshu a wink.
