Splendid Pastoral: The Strong and Hot Wife

Chapter 71
Mu Yuanqing looked at Qiu Yongzheng and asked with a smile, "Nephew, what are you going to use to transport the food and grass?"

Qiu Yongzheng hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Mu, you only need to hand over the food allocated by the emperor to my nephew. Then, you can listen to our good news!

Also, Uncle Mu, please inform the prime minister that there is no delay in military affairs, and we need to leave immediately. "

After listening, Mu Yuanqing looked at Qiu Qiming and said anxiously: "This is related to the lives of the entire Qiu family and the 10,000+ Qiu family army!"

Qiu Qiming also said earnestly: "Yes! So, I, an old guy, have to support him too! Otherwise, what can I do?

The mountains were blocked by heavy snow, countless soldiers froze to death, and food and grass were scarce, so Zheng'er had no choice but to do so!
My Qiu family is now like seeking skin from a tiger!Anyway, we have to send the food and grass first. "

After listening to Qiu Qiming's words, Mu Yuanqing could only nod his head and said, "Then, there is still one clock... so what?"

After speaking, Mu Yuanqing frowned and looked at the grandparent and grandson.

Qiu Yongzheng smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Mu, since he wants to go with him, let him go! In such a cold day, I only promised to go and send him back, but I didn't guarantee his life or death.

You just need to listen to our good news in the capital, you don't need to worry about anything else. "

Mu Yuanqing looked at Qiu Yongzheng and then at Qiu Qiming.In the end, he didn't say anything, but ordered his subordinates to prepare the food and grass, and waited for Qiu Yongzheng to pull it.

Qiu Yongzheng's grandfather and grandson walked out of the military department, and they separated.Qiu Yongzheng went straight to the inn, found Xu Xiaomi, and told him that everything was settled.

Xu Xiaomi smiled and said, "That's good! Let's go!"

When Qiu Yongzheng and Xu Xiaomi walked out of the room, a man and a woman came out from the next room.

The man was born handsome and spotless in a white robe, while the woman was beautiful and moving in colorful dresses.

Even though he was walking behind Qiu Yongzheng, he still couldn't help taking a few more glances, thinking: These two people's looks are too eye-catching, will it cause trouble?

Seeing this, Xu Xiaomi smiled and asked, "Brother Qiu, do these two look good?"

Asked by Xu Xiaomi like this, Qiu Yongzheng blushed again and asked, "What did Miss Xu say at such a young age?"

Xu Xiaomi giggled as he walked out and said, "I didn't say anything? It looks good if it looks good, and it doesn't look good if it doesn't look good.

Brother Qiu, it doesn't matter if you look at them a few more times because they look good, you must know that they belong to our family! "

Qiu Yongzheng stared at her and said, "Ours? Cough...cough..."

He almost choked on his own saliva again, thinking to himself: We'll just be two... oh oh oh!right!is it them?
Just as Qiu Yongzheng was about to ask, Xu Xiaomi hurriedly signaled him that there are many people here, so don't speak out to scare people.

They came to an alley, Xu Xiaomi let Xiao Bailong and Caiyi go in.Create wooden cows and horses, and the quantity should be able to carry the amount of food and grass given by Chen Hezhe.

So, on the sixth day of the first lunar month of the Yongqing Year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, two men and two women appeared on the streets of Beicheng District in the capital, driving wooden oxen and horses to the Ministry of War.

The appearance of this spectacle attracted many people to watch.Among these four people, the handsome man and the pretty woman are already very eye-catching.

This is even more so. It is even more rare in the Great Zhou Dynasty that there is no one before or after, driving wooden oxen and horses.

The news was like growing wings, and soon reached the ears of the emperor Chen Hezhe, as well as Qiu Ruolan.

Of course, the Prime Minister's Mansion, the General's Mansion and the Ministry of War all received the news at the same time.

When the news reached the General's Mansion, Qiu Qiming was anxiously waiting for the news of Qiu Yongzheng, after hearing the report from his subordinates.Holding his teacup, he pouted lightly, and said with a smile: "This brat, even I didn't know it, and he didn't show me such an interesting thing."

At that time, he only heard from Qiu Yongzheng that there was no need to eat food and grass, and he did not say what it was.Qiu Qiming was so happy that a bright chrysanthemum appeared on his old face.

The prime minister's mansion got the news, and Zhong Chushan was planning how to stop Qiu Yongzheng from delivering the food!
Unexpectedly, I heard the person sent out to monitor the Qiu family say: "The old man Qiu Qiming took that kid to the Ministry of War before, and after he came out of the Ministry of War, the two separated.

I don't know where the boy got the wooden cow and horse, and he is still driving them on the street! "

Zhong Chushan's eyes widened in disbelief, he grabbed the servant's collar, and asked ferociously: "What... what...? You said that kid is good on the street, driving wooden cows and horses? "

When the servant saw his refined Xiangye, he suddenly became so terrified that he couldn't even speak, and said, "Yes... yes..."

Zhong Chushan let go of his servants and shouted: "Get out!"

Then he paced back and forth in the room, raised his head after a while and shouted loudly: "How could this be? How could this be? The old man finally had a chance to move the Qiu family down. How did it become like this? Can anyone tell me?"

When Chen Hezhe heard the news, he was reading the memorial written by the officials sent to Jinquan County to suppress the disaster in the imperial study.

It said that the people who went to suppress the disaster had not entered Jinquan County before they were blocked on the road by a violent snowstorm, and there was no living thing around.

Houses collapsed, killing countless people and animals.Now, are they asking for instructions whether to wait for the wind and snow to lighten before going, or continue to move forward?
While Chen Hezhe was having a headache about this, the spies he had sent floated in through the window.

Kneeling on one knee on the ground, he said: "The emperor's shadow came to report that at You hour today, I saw the youngest son of the Qiu family, Qiu Yongzheng, two women and one man on the street, driving wooden cows and horses to the Ministry of War to load grain and grass. "

Chen Hezhe almost fell to the ground after listening to the memorial in his hand.He raised his head and looked at the secret agent named Shadow seriously. After a few minutes, he slowly lowered his head and continued to read the memorial.

After another 2 minutes, he said: "Get up and answer!"

Shadow stood up slowly, and stood there bowed, waiting for orders.He felt that the master's reaction was very strange. He was obviously surprised, so why did he pretend to be calm?

Actually, Chen Hezhe was really shocked by this news.However, as the emperor and the lord of a country, he must remain calm in front of his courtiers.

Otherwise, how can he manage the world!
However, he was still very curious and asked: "He drove the wood to the Ministry of War?"
What's the use? "

The shadow hurriedly said: "I don't know either! I guess, it's probably used to deliver food and grass!"

"Oh! How did you see that?" Chen Hezhe finally couldn't hide his surprise and asked.

Shadow bowed respectfully and said: "Back to the emperor, I saw that the wooden cow and horse are as big as the real ones, and they walk very fast. If they carry things, they may be better than the real ones, and they still don't eat."

Chen Hezhe couldn't sit still any longer, and stood up from the chair in front of the koan with a hush.

Looking at the shadow, he asked, "Are they still in the Ministry of War?"

Shadow still bowed his body and said: "Go back to the emperor, if they go to transport grain and grass, they should still be there!"

After hearing this, Chen Hezhe said, "Let's go! Let's go and have a look!" After speaking, the two of them had drifted far away.

In Youlan Palace, Qiu Ruolan was eating the lotus seed soup made for her by Cui Yao with her head down.

Cui Yao came in from the outside, and after whispering a few words in her ear, she put down the spoon in her hand and asked in surprise, "Is this true?"

Cui Yao smiled at her and nodded, "Hmph!" softly.

Seeing her gulping down the contents of the bowl, Cui Yao handed the bowl to the maid serving beside her.

Said to them: "Your Majesty wants to rest, you don't have to wait on me anymore!"

All the court ladies retreated after hearing this.

Cui Yao went to the door and closed it, then happily walked to Qiu Ruolan's side, and said softly: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured now! The third young master can actually come up with such a wonderful method, let's see how those treacherous people can harm him?"

After hearing this, Qiu Ruolan smiled and said softly: "This method is wonderful, but Zheng'er definitely didn't come up with it. He joined the army with his father when he was nine years old. He has never been a skilled craftsman as a teacher. How can he know the art of mechanics?"

After listening to Qiu Ruolan's analysis, Cui Yao nodded and said: "Your Majesty is right, but whether the third young master thinks it or not, it is something that the Qiu family should be happy about."

Qiu Ruolan also responded softly with a smile: "Yes, yes! This is something that the entire Qiu family, and even the entire Qiu family's army, should be proud of."

Qiu Yongzheng and others drove the wooden cows and horses down the street in such a generous way, the effect really caused several families to rejoice and others to worry!
When they drove Mu Niu Liuma to the Ministry of War, Mu Yuanqing had already received the news and stood at the door waiting for them.

Mu Yuanqing was still the same as before. He cupped his hands and shouted at them all the way: "My nephew! You are here! Come in and sit for a while and have a cup of tea!"

Qiu Yongzheng hurriedly cupped his hands and returned the salute: "Uncle Mu, you have been waiting for a long time! You don't need to drink tea, please find some people to help us pack the food and grass, we are leaving tonight."

After hearing this, Mu Yuanqing asked his subordinates to find someone. He felt that Qiu Yongzheng was in a hurry and said, "Nephew! Are you in a hurry with this arrangement?"

After hearing this, Qiu Yongzheng replied seriously: "Uncle Mu! Rescuing soldiers is like putting out a fire! I'm not in a hurry, I've been in the capital for two days, and I don't know what's going on in Dingzhou now?

I'd better deliver the grain and grass as soon as possible!That way my father won't worry too much. "

Mu Yuanqing thought so too. When he saw the old general today, his gray hair had grown a lot.If the food and grass could be delivered earlier, the Qiu family's army would lose less troops, which would be a good thing!

Over there, the officials of the Ministry of War recruited more than 200 people to help pack the grain and grass, and Qiu Yongzheng and Xu Xiaomi also joined them.

Hundreds of people packed five thousand shi of grain and ten thousand dan of fodder in an hour.

At this time, the people sent by the Ministry of War to pick up Prime Minister Zhong Chushan also came back with a sedan chair!When Zhong Chushan came out of the sedan chair, he saw that the food and grass had been loaded on the backs of the wooden oxen and horses.

He walked over and pointed to the wooden oxen and horses parked there and said, "How can you go on the road with these things?"
