Sometimes the palace is sunny

Chapter 42
The autumn rain rustled endlessly, and the ginkgo leaves fell on the muddy ground with a "snap", and quietly peeked at the hustle and bustle mixed with the smell of muddy water.

At this time, a stinky foot with half of a rotten straw sandal stepped on it, and then the whole person fell down.

The poor ginkgo leaf left the branch with the strength of the rain in order to watch the fun, but was caught in the chaos in a panic, was rubbed to pieces, and crushed to pieces.

As Shao Zhiqing expected, the Marquis of Shoucheng came prepared, and as soon as he raised his hand, dozens of people came behind with knives and sticks. Shao Zhiqing greeted him with a broad-bladed lancet.

He was born in the army, and his strikes were extremely accurate. After knocking down three people directly, no one dared to get close to him no matter how hard the blade swiped.

Pei Feng was standing in front of the door on the other side with a long gun in his hand. Beside her, a dozen men were holding newly-made long guns and shouting, and they were walking forward. These ten people were not very strong, but they were very obedient during the drill. Yes, wherever Pei Feng's gun went, they followed, and they insisted on blocking dozens of people on the opposite side at a distance of several feet in front of the door.

The few strong men who won the first place in the daily competition did not fight alone, but joined hands in a group to advance and retreat, dancing vigorously with spears and sticks in their hands.

The rest of the tenants and servants were weaker in strength, and their hearts were not in harmony. They could not form a battle formation and could only fight against each other's people. They turned out to be the most tragic group.

There was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl holding an umbrella behind her, Zhao Surui observed the situation, it will be less than a month, Pei Feng has really cultivated some elites who are banned from a bunch of farmers, this is compared to Zhao Surui was pleasantly surprised by those strong men who were as good as one.

Thousands of soldiers are easy to get, but one general is hard to find, Pei Feng looked silent, but from the day he appointed her to train soldiers, she moved to live and eat with those servants, everyone in this village is very popular.

Considering that Pei Feng is only 19 years old, Zhao Surui feels a little regretful in his heart.

If Peifeng was a man, he would promote her to Jinyiwei no matter what he said, and send her out to train soldiers in a few years, so why worry about her not becoming a steel knife in his hand?

After sighing at Pei Feng, Zhao Surui turned his head to look at Tu Nan again.

The little maid who could only be described as somewhat delicate in appearance was wearing a plain short jacket as usual, paired with a dark blue horse-face skirt, the skirt was already full of dirty spots, and her hair was covered in long braids. The bun is firmly fixed with only a blue ribbon of the same color as the skirt.

No matter how you look at it, it looks so ordinary, but it has a pair of extremely quiet and cold eyes, holding a bow, and staring steadily ahead.

Suddenly, the fingers loosened, and an arrow flew out with feathers and hit a person's cheek.

Zhao Surui followed the arrow and saw a short dagger falling out of the hand of the person hit by the arrow.

Good eyesight, good aim, good courage.

Zhao Surui, who was happy to watch, began to clap his hands and applaud.

"Tunan, I know a girl whose archery skills are similar to yours. You should practice your riding and archery skills, and let the two of you go up the mountain to compete!"

Tunan glanced at his happy girl, then lowered his eyes again, and the next moment, she continued to stare forward with her bow.

Another arrow pierced the rain curtain and hit a cloud of blood.

Fun!So enjoyable!Zhao Surui's hands were itchy, but he looked down at his slender wrist, he knew that he couldn't even use a small bow well.

"Tunan! Give me your sword!"

Tunan glanced at him, and said softly: "Girl, compared to the power of a sword, you should stand here and take an overview of the situation to control the whole army. We need the girl to teach us how to fight the enemy."

Zhao Surui stood where he was, he knew very well that Tu Nan rejected him.

But...

But...

That's right, he is wise and martial, a natural born general, who wants to control the whole army by taking a look at the situation!
"you're right!"

He nodded and looked at the battle situation under the wall with great vigor.

Although these people in his village can barely be called well-trained, the people in Shouchenghou's mansion are obviously very good at fighting in groups. They are all masters with vicious eyes and dark hands, and they only pick people's legs. , the back of the neck, and the side ribs, if his men are not paying attention, they will suffer.

Seeing a strong man with a lottery on his body, Zhao Surui was furious in his heart.

These people under him were all fed by him with meat after meal, and if they were slightly damaged, it was all his meat!

"Tunan, take aim at the man with the six-in-one cap on his hand, and cancel his trick!"

With his words, Tunan's bow had turned.

Zhao Surui looked to the other side again: "Peifeng! The central army is forward, the two wings are backward, the spear points are staggered, and the upper and lower sides are guarding!"

"Yes!" Pei Feng yelled, and immediately led people to change formations. He read out the names of several people in his mouth and asked them to point their guns down to prevent being attacked in the legs.

Zhao Surui looked over and found that Pei Feng read out the names of every two people, and he knew the names of the whole queue by heart.

Forcibly suppressing the delusion that he wanted to put Peifeng back into his mother's womb and connect a piece of reborn, Zhao Surui said to the others:

"These people are used to fighting in groups, and they always want to surround you. You three should take care of each other. Don't let them surround you! Their legs will be crippled!"

As soon as Shao Zhiqing heard it, he knew that Mrs. Shen also understood. He went to the battle circle and brought two of his own people out, and shouted:
"A group of hooligans are no match for us. Brothers, keep your footing and protect each other's backs! Lady Shen will reward us if we win this game!"

"Reward!" Zhao Surui raised his head and said, "Not only will you kill two pigs to celebrate your achievements, but I will reward each of you with two bolts of cotton cloth and three taels of silver, so that you can go back and have a good year with me!"

"Yes!"

Under the heavy reward, the eyes of all the tenants lit up, and their momentum was like a rainbow for a while, causing their opponents to retreat steadily.

Zhao Surui looked at the field and suddenly frowned.

"I remember a tall, thin man guarding behind the steward all the time, where is he?"

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden scream from the back yard.

Thinking of those concubines behind, Zhao Surui couldn't help but feel a little regretful, women are born weak, even if there is such a brave one as Tu Nan Peifeng, they are mostly useless.

In the blink of an eye, a little confusion suddenly arose in Zhao Surui's heart—if Shen Sanwai knew that Xie Fengan's concubines were dead, what would she think?
Thinking of those voices that sounded in his heart, Zhao Surui raised his eyebrows.

Mostly to ridicule him as the emperor, who can't even protect a few women!

At the thought of this, he couldn't stand still.

"You maidservants follow me with sticks."

He casually drew the sword from Tunan's waist, and handed it to the little maid who had been holding the umbrella for him:
"When you see a thief in a while, just stab it in the stomach. If the thief snatches your sword, you can hide behind me!"

The little maid was holding the sword as if holding a child.

Seeing that he actually wanted to go to the back to save people himself, Tunan was naturally worried and wanted to go with her.

"There was only that scream. I didn't think many people came in. I called the guard at the gate to come with me. If something happened later, I would set fire to the yard, and you can come in and save me when the time comes. Here, I hand over Give you."

While speaking, Zhao Surui raised his hand and patted Tunan on the shoulder.

Tu Nan was stunned for a moment, and saw his girl striding towards the yard with a whip drawn from her waist.

She turned her head and looked at the fighting arena outside the village again.

"Her girl" is not her girl.

But he's not a bad guy either.

Thinking of this, she shot another arrow, which hit a person in the throat, and the person fell on his back, blood spattered several feet high, his body twitched, and did not move.

Zhao Surui walked all the way to the back, but he didn't see the gatekeeper he had appointed before. He clenched the whip tightly in his hand, but he was not afraid.

What kind of storm he has never seen, even if this body belongs to Shen Sanfei, he is still the invincible Emperor Zhaode!

He hurried all the way to the main courtyard.

The scene in the yard was beyond his expectation.

"Bind! Bind his hands!"

"Bound the hands first or the legs first?"

"Should I tie my head first? It's still bleeding!"

"Forget it, get out of the way, let me tie it up!"

"Sister Qingying, do you know how to kidnap people?"

"At any rate, he was tied up."

Two men wearing bunts fell in the middle of the main courtyard, with blood bubbling from their heads, Qingying held a rope in her hand, and was sitting on a tall and thin man and tied his arms tightly. And even.

The main courtyard where Zhao Surui was used to living was in a mess, several of the stones he usually used to exercise his body were soaked with blood, and he could tell what kind of misfortune these two men had suffered just by looking at them.

Liu Tianxing pinned the front door of the horse face skirt to her waist, squatted on the ground and watched Qingying's movements.

Xia He pinched her waist like a teapot, pointed at another man who fell on the ground and cursed: "You don't even look at who my aunt is, so you dare to threaten me!"

Not only was the man bleeding from his head, but he was also densely pierced with a handful of silver needles, which shone with a cold light, making one feel horrified.

The only one who looked the same as usual was An Niannian, who was wiping her hands with a handkerchief soaked in rainwater.

Liu Tianxing raised her head and said with a smile, "Sister An, you are really strong!"

Zhao Surui: ...Okay, he now knows who is responsible for the beating.

He stood at the gate of the courtyard speechless for a while, behind him, A Chi came over with a dozen or so little maids, pushing and shoving five or six men who were tied up.

Those guys all had bruises on their faces and bloody heads, and they didn't look any better than those in front of them.

Zhao Surui asked A Chi: "Why are you all here?"

Seeing his own girl, A Chi smiled and said: "Girl, there were three groups of people who came here, and they were all cleaned up by us, and it wasn't just us who did it. Some of the Xie family's wives who were tied up wanted to make meritorious deeds. I picked seven or eight of them, and told them that there are villains who are going to rush in and kill them, so they have no intention of running away."

As she said that, she pointed to one of the injured men: "This is caught by Mrs. Zhang. She bit on this man's leg and almost tore the flesh off."

"Oh."

Zhao Surui, who just reprimanded Fang Qiu at the front, nodded, but didn't know what to say.

It was drizzling, and the fight outside was not over yet.

Emperor Zhaode, who was originally full of fighting spirit, raised his head and looked at the study in the main courtyard with the window open.

There was a booklet on the table in front of the window, and the beginning of the booklet was written with a crazy statement.

"The same is a hundred catties of flesh and blood, and the universe is determined by itself."

Same, one hundred catties, flesh and bones.

Looking at these women in and out of the courtyard, Zhao Surui had some strange thoughts for no reason
——He can also use these women as soldiers!

At dusk, the rain had not stopped, and the battle finally stopped. Shoucheng Hou's mansion was repelled, leaving more than 30 prisoners who did not escape.

Zhao Surui naturally kept his promise, he asked people to kill pigs and stew meat, and he asked people to open a warehouse to get cotton cloth for everyone, together with the servant girls who participated in the battle and Xie Fengan's three concubines, they also took three taels of silver and two bolts of cloth.

With rewards, everyone is naturally happy.

But Shao Zhiqing frowned tightly:
"Miss Shen, Uncle Shoucheng is an uncle of the state, I'm afraid this matter will not be kind."

"Don't be afraid, it's the uncle of the country." Zhao Surui gnawed on a sheep's hoof that was boiled with pepper and sauce, and waved his hand indifferently, "Someone can take care of this for me."

The person he was talking about was naturally Shen Sanwa in the palace.

They have become the emperor, if Shen Sanfu can't even protect "herself", she will return the throne as soon as possible and drag him down.

Obviously there were a lot of speculations about Shen Sanwaste before, but now it seems to be washed away by the rain.

Shen Sanwas will not let these women in this yard suffer bad luck.

There is no reason, but Zhao Surui is unusually determined.

Taking another sip of the mutton bone soup, he laughed again.

In other words, no matter what he does now, there will always be an emperor who has to work hard for him!

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhaode suddenly felt refreshed.

-

Holding the cloth in her arms clumsily, Liu Tianxing squeezed under An Niannian's umbrella with a happy smile:
"Sister An, I don't plan to make these cloths into clothes, I want to keep them!"

An Niannian held two pieces of cloth in her arms, tilted the umbrella in her hand to Liu Tianxing, and asked her:

"What? What's different about this cloth?"

"Hey hey! The young lady said it was military pay!" Liu Tianxing smiled, "My father dreamed of going to the battlefield with uncle to make contributions, but he has never received military pay! It's my daughter who got it first. "

An Niannian stopped and glanced at Liu Tianxing.

"Fool."

　At this time, Shen Shiqing, who was conscientiously reviewing the memorial, said: Ah Choo!
