sister-in-law

Chapter 80 The strategy of retreating from the enemy

Su Ruoli quickly got up and stepped forward to check the injury.

Fortunately, he didn't hurt his vitals, she quickly pulled out the arrow and put on the golden sore medicine for him.

"Thank you, miss!" Li Fu'an thanked her politely, stood up when the wound was wrapped up, and went to the city gate.

Several personal guards tried hard to persuade: "My lord has not closed his eyes all day and night, and he was injured again, so he can't go anymore."

Several guards were also slightly injured, which shows how fierce the battle above the city gate was.

"As the parent official of Qingquan County, I naturally have people living in the city, and people are dying in the city. What can I say!"

In the dim light, Li Fu'an's face full of grievances was filled with a heroic spirit!

A few people then fell silent.

Maybe everyone expected this ending, right?
After all, surrounded by iron barrels on all sides, it is difficult to fly with wings, and even a messenger cannot get out.

There was a deep sadness in the room, and for a long time, no one spoke.

"My lord, there is a way for a girl, I wonder if it will work?" After a long hesitation, Su Ruoli mustered up the courage to speak out. After all, this is not only about her life, but also about the lives of everyone in the city.As long as it can be used, say it!
The silence in the room was broken by this abrupt sentence, and everyone turned their attention to this petite and frail woman.

Li Fu'an's eyes lit up, and he fixedly looked at the resolute little girl on the opposite side, "I don't know what the girl can do, tell me quickly?"

In the face of the great enemy, Su Ruoli couldn't take care of so much, so he replied happily: "There are several ways, now let's talk about a simple and practical one, let the common people in this city carry a few buckets of water and pour them into the city. On the wall outside the door..."

"You mean...?" Before finishing speaking, Li Fu'an's eyes lit up with joy, and the bloodshot eyes had already opened.

Su Ruoli nodded with a smile, and Li Fuan repeatedly ordered people to do so.

At dawn, a soldier came to report, and the barbarians shot a wave of arrows, but it was so cold that the city walls were covered with ice crystals, slippery and there was nowhere to climb.

The guards at the city gate tower were all holding shields, and they even had pot covers on their heads. It was useless for the barbarians to set up ladders, so they had to retreat.
Of course, the Hu people who did not take advantage of it would never withdraw their troops so easily. They are still camping not far from the city gate, discussing how to break the city.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, and praised Su Ruoli's method one after another.

Li Fu'an didn't care about the injuries on his body, he hurriedly took people out to have a look, and then came back.

Seeing Su Ruoli, he bowed and made a big salute, Su Ruoli was so flustered that he couldn't dodge in time.

Li Fu'an said solemnly: "Young lady saved a city of people from fire and water, we are really lucky!"

In the end, he finished this great gift to Su Ruoli firmly.

Seeing that he insisted on this, Su Ruoli accepted it frankly.

But Li Fuan asked again, "Young lady said there is another way, I don't know what it is?"

Su Ruoli pondered for a while, before saying: "This method is good, but it's time-consuming and labor-intensive. I don't know if my lord has the courage to help me?"

"As long as I can do what I can do, I will do what the girl said!" Li Fu'an stretched out his hand and patted his chest excitedly, but the wound was pulled, causing him to grin his teeth in pain, completely destroying his handsome beauty.

Su Ruoli pursed her lips and smiled, then said with fingers: "Let's talk about something unimportant first, can my lord give my uncle and sister-in-law a place to live?"

Anyway, if I don't mention it at this time, I don't have time to mention it. They settled down, so she won't be distracted.

Li Fu'an was stunned, and then smiled, "Your mother-in-law doesn't care about her children anymore, why are you so careless? I heard that your mother-in-law threatened to divorce you?"

"Hey, I was born to worry about my life, what can I do?" Su Ruoli sighed, but secretly wondered why this guy even knew Luo Shi's words so clearly!

"Sure, that's easy to talk about. Where do they live now? I'll have someone send them to live in the yamen."

Su Ruoli mentioned the name of the inn, and Li Fuan immediately called for someone to do it.

Only then did Su Ruoli suppress her smile, and solemnly snapped her fingers, "My lord, let someone prepare charcoal, saltpeter, sulfur, etc., as much as possible!"

Time was running out, and Su Ruoli didn't bother to explain to him, and he probably couldn't understand the explanation.In this era, gunpowder has not yet been used in war, so before the Hu people don't know this method, let them retreat first!
Li Fu'an didn't ask much, and immediately ordered someone to prepare, and took Su Ruoli outside, "I'll do it in the backyard of the county government office, it's spacious and safe."

Although the Hu people retreated, the huge trebuchet still threw stones into the city from time to time, and was accidentally hit, which was the consequence of the collapse of the walls and houses.

When he arrived at the door, Li Fu'an asked the servant to bring his own mount - a tall horse with a snow-white body and no hair.

Li Fu'an took the reins and smiled, "Taking a car is too slow, it's better to ride a horse faster."

The white horse was snorting, maybe it had seen a stranger, and kept pawing its hooves.

Su Ruoli bit her lip and stood three feet away from the horse, afraid that the horse would get upset and kick her.

Only then did Li Fu'an realize that this girl is afraid of horses.

In the wounded and sick station, facing all kinds of wounded soldiers, the tragic scene, the scene of blood spraying, and the atmosphere of screaming everywhere, this girl looks calm, but this time she is afraid of a horse. horse?

"It's called Black Eagle!" Li Fu'an smiled gently at Su Ruoli, and patiently introduced his horse.

It is obviously a snow-white and shiny white horse, so why did it get the name Black Eagle?

Su Ruoli couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing with a "puchi", "Isn't this a white horse? Why is it still called this name? Can you name it?"

After laughing, Su Ruoli felt less fear in her heart.

"My nephew gave it to me. Children are very naughty!" Li Fu'an scratched his head in embarrassment, as if he had remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Here, it was the last time you rescued me in Qingquan Town in the middle of the night. That kid who came over!"

The child of the noble lady who brought people here in the middle of the night to admire her name?
No wonder this guy didn't have any doubts when he saw her recommending himself to the injury station. After a long time, he knew that she knew medicine.

Pursing her lips, Su Ruoli asked politely, "How is the young master? I didn't expect him to be the county magistrate's nephew."

So, the lady is his sister?
No wonder that woman was so aggressive that she dared to smash He Xuantang.

"The little guy is very good, alive and well, can eat and sleep." Li Fu'an smiled, "I still live in the yamen, I wanted to leave in the first two days, but when the barbarians sealed off the city, I don't know if I can." Is it okay to go?"

Having said that, he frowned, feeling lost.If the city is broken, the little nephew will not be able to keep it.At that time, he was sorry for his sister and brother-in-law.
With a long sigh, he got on his horse and stretched out a big, slender hand like jade to Su Ruoli, "Come on!"

Su Ruoli stood there motionless, biting her lip, "Well, I don't know how to ride a horse!"

Li Fu'an looked at the little girl with a shy face, and couldn't help smiling, the smile was like the bright autumn sun.

"I'll take you."

"That, isn't it good?" Su Ruoli hesitated, it would be fine in modern times, wouldn't it just be sharing a ride with a beautiful man?

It's just that she is already a married woman, and although she doesn't have any deep and strong feelings with Gu Zhang, since she is married to him, she still has to give him some face, so as not to ruin his reputation.

In this age, words are terrifying!

"What's wrong? You need to act in a hurry." Li Fu'an put on a bright and clear look, which made it difficult for Su Ruoli to refuse, and if he procrastinated, he would appear hypocritical.

She is also doing this for official business.

After taking two steps forward, she was still a little afraid of the big white horse called Black Eagle, hesitated, she tiptoed to the side, pointed at Black Eagle like a thief, and asked Li Fuan in a low voice, " Well, it won't kick me, will it?"

"Haha...haha..." Li Fuan laughed while leaning on his horse, with a happy expression, sweeping away the haze of the barbarians.

"Don't worry, this black eagle is quite human, if you don't believe me, listen to me." Seriously, he hugged the horse's head and put it against its ear, muttering, "Black Eagle, this girl is your master's savior Ah, you can't collide with others, do you know?"

Hearing him talking to the horse in a serious manner, Su Ruoli couldn't stop laughing.

This guy is just teasing her, right?

Rubbing her hands together, she put her small hands on Li Fu'an's extended hands with some discomfort, and Li Fu'an lifted her up with a clever effort.

Don't look at Li Fu'an's appearance as a frail scholar, but his hands are extremely strong, as if he was carrying a child.

Su Ruoli sat astride the saddle, her back pressed against his chest.

The hot man's breath rushed towards her face, and her petite body became weaker and weaker.

Li Fu'an's hand went around her slender waist and pulled the rein, and with a flick of the rein, the horse moved forward.

Su Ruoli followed suit and nestled in his arms involuntarily.

With a cry of "ah", she frantically tried to struggle to sit up, but a big hand firmly wrapped around her slender waist, so that she could only lean back and nestle in his arms.

"What are you afraid of?" Li Fu'an only felt his chin resting on the hairline of the person in his arms, the tip of his nose was itchy, and his breath also fluctuated accordingly.

The body of the person in his arms was a little stiff, but the touch of holding the slender waist was extremely soft, and the hand felt surprisingly good.

He couldn't help secretly hating: How could such a flower be stuck in the cow dung?How could that shrew of Luo Shi deserve such a daughter-in-law?
And thinking wildly, why didn't he meet her earlier?
It's just that I met him earlier, what would he do?

He was thinking wildly in his mind, and the words came out of his mouth, "Didn't your mother-in-law threaten to divorce you? If she really gave you a divorce letter, would you be willing?"

Unknowingly, he asked such words, as if this was his inner voice, he wished that Luo Shi would divorce her!
"Let her go on and on, I really can't afford to take care of such a mother-in-law!" Although Su Ruoli felt a little awkward in this posture with him, when the topic changed to this, her thoughts were also attracted, I didn't feel the big hand holding her slender waist tightened again.

"So you are willing?" Li Fu'an suppressed the joy in his heart, and calmly guided down, "Then are you willing to marry again?"

Su Ruoli was overjoyed upon hearing this, "No one in this world can live without him. What's more, I'm still a girl bought by his family to celebrate. If Luo Shi really divorced me, I can't just guard a tree with a crooked neck. Are you hanging from the tree? Those who should marry must marry, and their own happiness is the most important thing!"

She seemed to have returned to her previous life, chatting about such a topic with a beautiful man, she felt extremely relaxed.

Li Fu'an screamed in his heart, ah, it's really great!
