Chapter 716 I need the emperor to give me an official position
Chapter 717 I need the emperor to give me an official position
The hundred or so people brought by Pinglou, after entering the city gate, the tension in their hearts suddenly relaxed, and some people couldn't hold on and fell off their horses.Upon seeing this, Sheng Xi hurriedly arranged for someone to take them to the wounded barracks, and asked Xin Ru to prepare some food.

Pinglou did not follow him. Although there were injuries on his body, they were not serious and were all skin injuries.

Sheng Xi took him directly to the yard where he lived and gave him some food.

Pinglou was probably starving. He didn't even wash his hands or face. He just grabbed a piece of cake and bit into it. At the same time, he said: "Young madam, I finally found you!"

Sheng Xi poured him a glass of water and asked him as he pushed it over, "Did father ask you to come here?"

Pinglou nodded: "Yes, the Marquis asked me to protect the young lady." After a pause, he suddenly thought of something, put down the cake and hurriedly took it out of his arms, took out something and handed one of the things to Sheng Xi and said, "Young Madam, the Crown Prince asked me to give this to you!"

Sheng Xi's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard it was from Shen Anhe. When she saw clearly what it was, she couldn't help blurting out: "Telescope?"

"Huh? A telescope?" Pinglou was stunned when he heard this and looked at Sheng Xi, "Young lady knows this? But this is not called a telescope. The prince said it was called a telescope and he bought it from a businessman in the Western Regions."

"Ah, it turns out it's called Thousand Mile Mirror." Sheng Xi pretended to be surprised and smiled softly, "I've heard of it before, but I misremembered the name."

Pinglou smiled, staring at the telescope with a trace of envy in his eyes: "It's okay, no matter what its name is, this telescope is really a good thing!"

Sheng Xi agreed: "Well, it is indeed a good thing."

Could it be a good thing?In this era of cold weapons, with the blessing of this telescope, how much energy can they save and how many opportunities can they take advantage of.For example, if they had this telescope to investigate the news this time, Zeng Zhe would not have to run there personally, and they would be able to pick Pinglou and the others back faster.

Looking at the telescope in her hand, Sheng Xi couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled. Shen Anhe really understood her. It really suits her to send this telescope at this time!

After checking the telescope and trying it again, Sheng Xi asked Pinglou: "Aren't those people in military uniforms from the Hou Mansion?"

Pinglou swallowed the cake in his mouth and said, "Well, no. I only brought 20 people here. The rest are a small group of northwest troops that I rescued from the Tatar soldiers when I passed near Qingzhou."

Sheng Xi was stunned: "Northwestern Army?"

"Yes, the Northwest Army. It is the army that was originally under Huo Shao." Pinglou said, and after a pause he added, "Huo Shao has been escorted back to Beijing, and his deputy general is in charge of the army now. But... "

"The army is gone." Sheng Xi answered.

Pinglou shook his head helplessly after hearing her words: "Yes, I didn't know how Huo Shao deployed his troops before, but he actually made several teams disperse!"

Sheng Xi had already known this from Zeng Zhe, but now that he heard Pinglou say this, he still found it a bit unbelievable.But judging from the fact that General Huo could blatantly favor his concubine in the army, it seems that these are reasonable.But when she saw Pinglou in such a mess, she couldn't help but ask, "Brother Pinglou, why are you like this?"

Pinglou lowered his head and looked at his rags. After a moment, he laughed and said: "I was ordered to find you, young lady. I heard that you were in Yin County, so I came here. It was not peaceful along the way. The Tatar army was in Qingzhou and Lan." Various arrests were made near the state capital. We originally had a small number of people and little target, so we were quite flexible in our actions. Later we met those soldiers and were fighting with the Tatar soldiers when we saw them. , we went over to help. Later, we were chased by various Tatar soldiers. Because some of these soldiers were injured, there was a delay on the way." After a pause, Pinglou suddenly apologized to Sheng Xi. , "I'm sorry, young lady, I just came here now. It's my subordinate's dereliction of duty!"

Seeing that he didn't even eat the cake when he said this, Sheng Xi smiled and waved his hands and said, "Nothing. In fact, even if you don't help, I will find a way to get these soldiers back. You are like this now It’s a good thing that you helped me.”

Hearing this, Pinglou suddenly raised his head and looked at Sheng Xi in surprise: "Young Madam, do you want to... want to get all the troops back?"

Sheng Xi shook his head: "It is impossible to retrieve everything. After all, there is still that lieutenant, right?" Pinglou frowned for a moment. For some reason, his heart jumped sharply at this moment. He couldn't help but ask: "Young madam, who are you?" Do you really want to get the troops back?"

There was a smile on Sheng Xi's lips, her voice was gentle, but she said shocking words: "Well, get it back. I don't trust the generals of the Northwest Army now, even the deputy general. So, instead of It is more reassuring to bet your life on others than to arm yourself. If those troops can be found, at least the people in Yin County will no longer have to fear the Tatar troops outside. And we may also be able to capture Lanzhou Prefecture and even Take back all Qingzhou."

After saying this, Sheng Xi picked up the teapot and poured herself a drink without looking at the uncontrollable shock on Pinglou's face.

Pinglou looked at Sheng Xi and swallowed unconsciously.Seeing the matter-of-factness on the other person's face, he just widened his eyes but didn't know what to say.

Shocking?Shocking!

He didn't know if Sheng Xi knew the meaning of what he said, but he knew it.In this case, what is the difference between seizing military power?And the most important thing is that the person who wants to seize military power is still a teenage girl...

After his words of persuasion were somehow suppressed, Pinglou subconsciously asked: "Young madam, how can you recruit troops if you don't have a position in the army?"

"So, I need the emperor to give me an official position." Sheng Xi said.

Pinglou: "...!"

She really wanted to do this!

As if she understood what he was thinking at the moment, Sheng Xi smiled and asked Pinglou: "What, can't you?"

Pinglou scoffed, unable to answer this question.

Can't?He didn't know if he could.But an idea that had been suppressed in my heart for many years seemed to be unchained at this moment, and it started to roar in my heart.

Recruiting troops!Recruiting soldiers gives you military power!Then maybe the unfinished wish of the Marquis can be realized!The buried power of the Shen family might be revived!As for them...

Pinglou couldn't help but look at Sheng Xi again, a flash of light flashing in his eyes.

"Yes!" He said seriously.

Sheng Xi smiled and nodded: "Well, since it can be done, then this matter will trouble my husband and father."

As she spoke, she whistled straight into the sky.Xueyuan, who was hiding somewhere, circled down after a moment, and Pinglou watched helplessly as Sheng Xi took out a small piece of paper from her arms. When Xueyuan settled down, she stuffed the small paper into it. He picked up the bamboo tube at his feet, and then whispered something to him in a low voice. Xueyuan fluttered his wings and flew away!

Ping Lou was shocked.

Therefore, wanting to lead troops was Sheng Xi's idea that he had planned all along!
