Chapter 592 The Children Come to Join the Army
The old hen of Su Ran's family turned into a phoenix and flew up to the branches. This story has long been a legend in Liangjiang Province.

Up to now, there are still people who have written dozens of plays based on the stories of the Su family and performed them everywhere.No matter how many performances there are, the venues are always full.While watching the play, everyone sighed with emotion about the good fortune of the family. The daughter married a prince who lived among the people, the eldest son passed the imperial examination, and the younger son had better luck. He was banned by the emperor just because he saved a fire in the capital. official.Later, he followed the current His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he was already a very popular figure in the court.

For other stories in the play, they just read it as a story and let it go.But now, this story happened around me, which made many people's minds active-if their family can do it, why can't we?

It's just that it's hard to find princes who live among the people, but they can still copy things like studying, learning kung fu, and taking martial arts exams.

In addition, people in villages and towns are now raising rabbits to make money by weaving rabbit fur. Every family has some spare money on hand, so it is not a problem at all to hire a master for their children to study.

Among the many passionate people, there is a group of people who are much calmer and think more far-reaching. Most of these people are those who watched Su Ran's family get up slowly in Wushan Village.

After all, although every family in the village has money now, money cannot buy a child's smart mind and good martial arts.They know how capable they are, and they also know how capable their children are.Moreover, it is not so easy to take the imperial examination. The examination is only held every three years, and how many people can pass each time?With their family's ability, it's just nonsense to want to confess a Wen Jinshi and Wu Jinshi or something.What's more, Mr. Yuan has already left the village!
Therefore, under the guidance of the village chief, everyone quickly found a more convenient way - isn't Li Er leading the army in the northwest?Isn't it all right for everyone to join him?

Earning military merits is more convenient for this group of children in the village than reading and writing articles that scratch their heads.

Therefore, at the beginning, it was just that the village head planned to send some of his grandchildren who were not able to study well. The villagers spread the word after they found out, and everyone began to send their own children here. .So this time when Qian Da and the others came, they even brought forty or fifty boys in their teens.

Of course, because they didn't greet Su Ran and the others in advance, they didn't bring the person over directly, and placed them outside the town first.

Su Ran raised his forehead again.

Of course she knew that things about their family must have gone crazy in the town by now, but she never thought that things would be so crazy!

"What should we do now?" She asked Li Er.

"Since people have come, of course they must be accepted." Li Er nodded, "I'll ask someone to take them into the barracks and reorganize them into the army."

After saying this, he said to Qian Da and the others solemnly: "The border is bitterly cold, and the sword has no eyes, so I can't guarantee their safety. You must go back and explain this clearly to their families."

"It's clear, we made it clear to them before we came here, and they even gave us a written note!" Qian Da hurriedly took out another thick stack of written notes from his pocket.

Li Er received the written receipt, and he was completely relieved. "Since that's the case, then go back and tell them, I will definitely do my best to bring all the children in the village to fame!"

"Okay! With your words, we can rest assured!" Qian Da hurriedly nodded cheerfully.

No wonder he was so happy, after all, among the more than 40 boys who followed this time, there was also one of his children and several children of relatives.Now that he got Li Er's guarantee, his heart completely sank back into his stomach.

Li Er and Su Ran, this couple has always kept their word, he believes in them!

Reorganizing the boys into the barracks, Li Er left it to Brother Zhuang and Brother Bian to do it.The two children have been away from their hometown for almost three years, and they miss their friends in their hometown very much.Now it is so easy to have a chance to meet with familiar friends, and the two children jumped up and down to do it.

Su Ran also put the [-] rabbits into the prepared room, and then prepared the vegetable leaves for the rabbits to eat.By the way, she also began to select the rabbits that had grown up, and made rabbit meat sauce, sauced meat, etc. by herself, just like she did in the village.

As for the one hundred jars of dried vegetables that Qian Da and the others brought, it solved their urgent need.Su Ran took fifty altars and sent them to the barracks, and asked the Huotou army to chop up the vegetable leaves and mix them with the wheat noodles for the soldiers to eat.She gave the rest to the family who came to their house for spring wine on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

When those people got dried vegetables, the women came over to Su Ran to thank them as if they had been ordered. By the way, they started discussing with Su Ran and took the opportunity to send people to Lanzhou and other places to buy vegetable seeds while the snow began to melt.

This busy work never ends, and it's not easy for Su Ran to entertain Qian Da and the others.

However, the northwest is still surrounded by a vast expanse of whiteness, and the wind is strong during the day and night, so there is nothing to entertain them.Qian Da and Su Liang hurried home to go to spring plowing again, and they didn't intend to stay longer, so they stayed here for four or five days, and then turned back in a hurry.

After the seeds were bought back from Lanzhou, the news from the imperial court finally arrived—"Border affairs should be handed over to King Zhenxi to decide on his own!"

Hearing these words, the Great Food Messenger almost spit out a mouthful of old blood and fell to the ground.

After tossing and tossing for half a year, didn't the emperor hand over the decision-making power to you?That being the case, what did you want to do with that upright look before?
But when Li Er got the imperial decree, he finally spit out, expressing his willingness to discuss the peace with the envoy.

During this period, the Dashi army has been tossed by Li Er's people to the point of disrespect.Although they are not new year, but this winter they are also very difficult, do not know how many people and cattle and sheep are alive and starved to death.Now the people in the country are in dire straits, the emperor only eats one meal a day, and he only talks about the second prince who was captured in Gansu Town, and everyone falls ill.As soon as he fell ill, the other princes took the opportunity to seize power, and there was a lot of trouble.

All of this was caused by the Zhenxi King!
However, no matter how much he hated in his heart, the envoy has learned to be smart after suffering countless blows in the past six months.When he came to Li Er, he was so cute with his tail between his legs.

"Our king has already said that the conditions are whatever you want, King Zhenxi... No, whatever you want from the Sun and Moon Dynasty, as long as you can return the second prince safely, as long as you can leave us a bite to eat, we will definitely follow your requirements. Do!"

This posture is low enough, but when Li Er heard it, he sneered: "Didn't you say last time that the people in your territory can no longer eat? Now you say you want the king to let you have another bite of food, then what?" It means that this king will pay you a batch of rations instead?"

The messenger wants to cry but has no tears. "The villain dare not! The villain doesn't mean that. How dare the villain ask the lord for rations? What the villain means is, I want to ask the lord to agree to open a border market between the two sides, so that we can earn a living Eat it, don't you?"

"If that's the case, then it can be considered." Li Er nodded, as if he was moved by his suggestion.

But the envoy saw this scene in his eyes, but he knew that things must not be that simple.

Sure enough, the negotiation lasted for a month, and finally all the details were finalized.When the news reached the capital, the emperor held the memorial handwritten by Li Er himself and laughed from ear to ear.

"Starting from this year, Dashi will pay tribute to our Celestial Dynasty with one thousand horses, five thousand cattle and sheep each, and ten thousand pieces of various furs. The two sides will open border markets and trade with each other. Good, good!" After thinking about it, the emperor was happier, "This Li Yuanpu, who has just been there for half a year, has achieved great results unexpectedly. I really didn't misjudge him!"

"He is the King of Zhenxi!" The prince also apologized, "Besides, like the previous King of Zhenxi, he wholeheartedly seeks the well-being of the people of the world. Father, you see, he has made such a great contribution. He didn't ask for credit or reward, which shows his loyalty to you, father."

The Emperor squinted at him. "I understand what you mean. Well, for the sake of King Zhenxi, let's let Su An's matter go! It's not a big deal at all, it's just a child's play. It's just that you will teach him more in the future, let him He should learn from his brother-in-law and elder brother, so he can't be so rash anymore!"

"Yes, I know, I have thanked my father on Su An's behalf!" The crown prince quickly nodded, agreeing firmly.
