Ji Tang

Chapter 1079 Mom, grandma, there is news about my father!
"Isn't this fucking too fierce?"

Xue Wanche murmured to himself, but he expressed everyone's thoughts.
The coach who caught Dashi?

This news made everyone unable to recover for a long time. If they were to defeat the Great Food Fleet, they were still mentally prepared. After all, Ji Song's past achievements were there, but he directly captured Maimon alive?
This is not a fucking surprise, but a shock!

It's like capturing Jie Li in the first battle. This is a full-scale effort!

Li Shimin didn't know when he was on the Dragon Throne, and he still can't believe it is true.

bang~
Suddenly there was a loud noise that startled everyone, and the emperor slammed the table and said loudly: "I am sending urgent documents to Dengzhou for eight hundred miles, and order Gu Yanzhi to return to Beijing quickly, without any mistakes!"

Everyone was stunned at first, but soon understood what the emperor meant!
What the messenger said was hearsay and should not be taken as true. Although they all hoped that it was true, if Gu Yanzhi didn't return to Beijing and they didn't see Ji Song's victory document, it would be useless to say anything!

This matter is of great importance. If something happens, it will be a big joke!
"Your Majesty, please give an order to ensure Maimeng's personal safety. We, the Tang Dynasty, know very little about Dashi. Being able to capture Maimeng alive this time is of great significance to our Datang. Not only can we get a lot of secret information, but we can also learn about the West. The nations have more understanding.”

"So, Maimon must live!"

Fang Xuanling said immediately, and everyone else also reacted and stepped forward to ask for orders to greet him personally.

"Well, here's the order, Cheng Yaojin will immediately lead three hundred Jinwu Guards to Dengzhou to escort him!"

"Sir, take the lead!"

Cheng Yaojin didn't expect that this matter would happen to him?But thinking about it carefully, Yuchi Laohei, Zhang Liang and other generals were all outside, and it seemed that no one in the court could rob him except him.

As for other people?

He glanced at Xue Wanche, who was still looking at him resentfully. Is this the guy?

Cheng Yaojin did not delay, and went directly to Jinwuwei to pick up people, and rushed to Dengzhou overnight.According to the speed of the sea ship, he had to go to Dengzhou at full speed to possibly block Gu Yanzhi.

"Come, come, come, tonight is the Lantern Festival, how can we live up to the beautiful scenery?"

"I respect you all!"

Everyone was flattered and hurriedly stood up and congratulated loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. May the Tang Dynasty and Your Majesty live forever!"

"Hahaha, okay, everyone wins!"

At this time, Li Shimin and everyone cleared away the previous haze. The victory in this battle was of great significance. It was a good thing for the Tang Dynasty, the nobles, and the family.

They can continue to exonerate themselves overseas without any risk.In the past few years, there are countless gold, various gems, and rare treasures brought back to Datang from overseas.

Anyone with a boat can make a lot of money, and these are just the tip of the iceberg of overseas products.

When the territory construction is completed and self-sufficiency is achieved, that will be the true eternal foundation.

What made them even more happy was that Datang won.Once His Majesty's original promise is fulfilled, they will have at least a ten-mile radius overseas.

This is not the current fiefdom, and what can we do with just a few thousand acres of fiefdom?Overseas territories are completely your own territory. As long as you don't rebel, no one will care what you do!
While everyone was drinking wine and smiling, a figure slowly exited the hall, and even ran outside after exiting the hall.

After leaving the Suzaku Gate, he mounted his horse and galloped away!

The Duke's Mansion!

This year's Lantern Festival was a boring one. From the emperor to the common people, not many people had a comfortable time.You Ning and his people prepared a lot of things tonight, thinking it would be fun.But when the time came, I realized that there was no one left!

The eldest son had to go on duty in the palace, while the second son and his unmarried wife went to watch the lanterns.My daughter also went to play with her little sisters. After counting, there were only a few little ones left.

"Mom, look at what this family is like. There's no one to celebrate the Lantern Festival. What's the point of living like this?"

The chopsticks in You Ning's room were full of dissatisfaction.

"Okay, if you can get through it, get over it. If you can't get through it, don't get over it. The children are grown up and have their own things to do, so they can hang around you all day long? You can go out if it doesn't matter, and no one will stop you."

Mother Ji didn't care, she ate her own rice and drank her own soup, just like it was nothing!

"mother!"

You Ning's face is full of black lines, why does he say that he is not his own person?Is it because you have free time?
Suddenly, the sound of cooking came from the front yard.You Ning frowned and said displeased: "Go and see what's going on? It's such a restless night!"

"Hey!"

Xiaolian quickly put down Xiao Haoer in her arms and walked outside.But before he could walk out of the backyard, he saw Ji Run running in, shouting and excited!

"Run'er? Aren't you on duty in the palace? Why?"

"Er Niang, where are my mother and grandma?"

Ji Run looked anxious: "My father has news. Quick, take me to see my mother and grandma!"

Xiaolian was stunned for a moment. After hearing what Ji Run said clearly, she was overjoyed!

"mother!"

"grandmother!"

"There is news about my father!"

Clang!

The spoon in Mother Ji's hand fell on the table, and she said to You Ning in disbelief: "You Ning, did you hear something?"

"Why did you hear that there is news about Song'er?"

You Ning was not much better. He was no longer full of complaints just now, and said in surprise: "Mom, it's Run'er. He said there is news about my husband!"

Ji Run rushed in in a hurry. After seeing her mother and grandma, she loudly said: "There is news about my father!"

"Run'er! Please tell me what's going on? How is your father? Is he injured? How long does it take to come back?"

Mother Ji asked several questions in succession.

"Grandma, you don't know that just now, Uncle Changsun sent people [-] miles away to rush back the news of our army's victory. Uncle Gu is already on his way back, and my father is still staying in Nanhai to deal with some matters. Regarding the follow-up matters, I believe I will be able to return to the DPRK soon."

Ji Run said with envy on her face: "Mom, grandma, you may not know. My father not only defeated the big cannibals, but also annihilated their army. He also captured their leader, Mai Meng, alive."

"This is such a great achievement. Just now, the entire court was stunned. Even the emperor was stunned for a long time."

"My dad is a complete victory this time!"

After hearing this, Mother Ji clasped her hands together: "Thank God, thank you Buddha, thank you Sanqing Taoist Patriarch for your blessing!"

"Mom, don't our family believe in Buddhism? Why are you begging Buddha?" Bang!
You Ning was slapped on the back by Ji's mother as soon as he finished speaking, and she said angrily: "I don't care whether he is a Buddha or a Taoist, as long as he is useful, he is a little god of the mountains and fields, and I will worship him!"

Seeing her mother being educated by her grandmother, Ji Run immediately laughed out loud.

"Laughing, why are you laughing? Why don't you go and call your sister and brother back? There is a big event at home, what's going on with them outside?"

"As a sister, you are not like a sister. Can you expect me to support her for the rest of your life? And your younger brother and sister-in-law. They are about to get married, and yet they are always acting up and not making fun of others?"

"Go, get them back, or don't come back!"

Ji Run's face was full of grievances, why did I provoke you when I was doing my best?Grandma, why do you care about me?

So, I looked at my grandma and wanted to complain, but Mother Ji pretended that she didn't see her, and looked like there was nothing I could do to help!
"Huh, you guys are having fun outside, and I'm the only one who'll make me angry."

"When you come back, let's see how I bury Tai. We have to accept the anger together!"

Ji Run walked away full of resentment. Ji's mother laughed and scolded angrily: "Why are you venting your anger on the child? Look at how wronged he is."

You Ning said dissatisfied: "Just protect her, hum!"

After saying that, he worried again: "You said that my husband is the same. After the battle is over, the rest will be left to others. Why is he still staying out and getting addicted?"

"No, I have to write a letter to urge you!"

"return!"

Mother Ji frowned and said, "What nonsense? How can you, a woman, talk nonsense about important military and national affairs? Since Song'er didn't come back as soon as possible, it means that something cannot be resolved immediately."

"You stay at home and don't write letters."

"As long as we women take care of our families and don't cause him any trouble at this time, this is the greatest support for him."

After saying that, he felt that his words were a bit harsh, so he calmed down and said, "Don't blame mother for speaking harshly. Mother knows that you miss your husband, but she also misses you. He is the meat that fell from mother's body, so to speak It hurts, I feel the most distressed. But the more we are at this time, the less we can cause trouble for him."

"You have to keep this in mind!"

You Ning suddenly burst into tears and said aggrievedly: "My children just miss him. He has been gone for more than a year and there is not even a message. I remind him every night because I am worried that he will not hear anything when he wakes up." news."

For more than a year, all the burdens of the family have been on her. She has to take care of the children's education, the family business, and the affairs of the clan.

Although my husband didn't interfere much with family affairs in the past, as long as he was around, I felt that I had a backbone and was particularly confident in doing things.Because she knew that even if she made a mistake, her husband would support her from behind, so he dared to do it boldly.

But her husband has been away for nearly two years, and she needs to make the final decision on everything in the family.Things that used to go smoothly now always go wrong. Sometimes she doesn't even know where the problem lies!

The children at home are becoming more and more difficult to discipline. They scold and spank themselves, but each one of them is like a monkey, remembering to eat but not spanking, not at all.

If Ji Run hadn't helped watch them, he would have been pissed off by them!

But when the husband was around, he didn't speak much, but the children were willing to listen to him.He is also willing to be close to his father. Sometimes he thinks that his husband might be able to live a good life without him.

"Okay, okay. The kids will be back soon, don't let the little guys see the joke!"

Mother Ji coaxed her daughter-in-law like a child.How could she not see the injustice You Ning suffered during this period?But I can help for a while, how can I help for the rest of my life?
Therefore, sometimes even if you see something, you pretend you haven’t seen it.When you are a housewife, you should behave like a housewife. If you are the housewife in a big house in Chang'an, which one is a fuel-efficient lamp?If you can't get used to it, you'll have to count the money after being sold!

Therefore, the mistresses of aristocratic families are easy to get along with.If you don't stand up yourself, it will be useless for others to help you!
Cheng Yaojin ran all the way, never stopping on the road, changing horses without changing people, hurrying slowly and finally reached Dengzhou before Gu Yanzhi docked.

"Your Majesty, Yao Chang and Liu Zhan, pay your respects to the general!"

Yao Chang and Liu Zhan, who had already received the letter from Feiying, had been waiting in front of the gate of Dengzhou for a long time.

Cheng Yaojin's face was full of exhaustion at this time, and without dismounting, he said directly: "Has Gu Yanzhi arrived yet?"

"Go back to the general, we haven't received the news yet!"

"Fortunately, I finally caught up!"

He looked at Yao Chang and said: "Go and clean up the place immediately, grandma, I almost died on the way. You have people waiting at Dengzhou Port. Once Gu Yanzhi arrives, notify me immediately!"

"promise!"

Yao Chang ordered behind him: "Prepare food for the general and all the soldiers immediately!"

"Yes!"

Then he said to Cheng Yaojin: "General, you have worked hard all the way. Please follow me to my mansion to rest. I have asked someone to prepare hot water!"

"Well, you have a heart!"

Cheng Yaojin did not refuse. After all, he was getting older. He had been running for many days on the road and was already exhausted.Secondly, this Yao Chang can be considered one of our own, there is nothing to be polite about.

"General, it's serious, please!"

Later, he arranged for the soldiers to rest in the military camp in the city, and brought Cheng Yaojin to this Shifu to rest.

On the second day, when the sun rose three poles, Cheng Yaojin finally woke up.As soon as it was bright and clear, I quickly walked out of the boat!
"Hey! General, you're awake! I'm about to call you. I just got the news that the fleet has passed the Beihai and will reach Dengzhou tomorrow!"

Yao Chang said quickly.

Call ~
"That's good, that's good!"

Cheng Yaojin breathed a sigh of relief. His Majesty's ability to send him here shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.He also understood that it was not worth the trouble of the Tang Dynasty to go to the governor alone and send a duke here.But the significance of Maimon's existence is extremely important to Datang, and nothing should be missed!

"General"

"Ok?"

Seeing Yao Chang hesitate to speak, his mind changed and he immediately knew something.He shook his head and said: "I don't know much about Ziyi's situation. The imperial court got some urgent documents from Zhao Guogong for [-] miles, and then it knew a little about the situation. But it only knew that Ziyi had won a great victory in the South China Sea, and knew nothing about the rest!"

As for Mai Meng, he didn't say anything. It wasn't that he couldn't trust Yao Chang.But the stakes were very high at this time. The last incident of cannibalism and intelligence theft in Chang'an had already sounded the alarm to Datang.If the news that Maimon was not captured alive was accidentally leaked, those people might become desperate!
So, the fewer people who know, the better!

Yao Chang felt disappointed when he heard this, but then he thought that Gu Yanzhi was coming to Dengzhou soon, so he stopped worrying about it!Anyway, can they still hide their relationship from themselves?

"Let's go, take me to visit Dengzhou City. I think my hometown is in Qingzhou, but I haven't been back in these years. I just want to ask the juniors to tell me about the prosperity and wealth of Dengzhou. As the saying goes, it's better to meet than to be famous, and I just have time. See what’s unique about Dengzhou?”

When Yao Chang heard this, he said with pride on his face: "General, you have asked the right person. This Dengzhou City was built brick by brick by Xiaguan and his people. Even the city wall was expanded twice. The level of wealth is not the same." I dare say it is comparable to Chang'an, but it is second to none in the Tang Dynasty, and only Xuanzhou and Mingzhou can compare!"

"Oh? Then I have to take a good look at it. I just have some bragging rights when I return to Chang'an, hahaha!"

Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly and walked out the door first.
