Daughter Raiders

Chapter 221
Obtaining her father's disguised consent and reluctant orders, Tao Ran bowed her head in response and quickly left the main room; she was about to reach the door of her west wing room, but her brows that had been sinking before slowly relaxed in the end. open.

Looking at the women in the Dasheng Dynasty, no matter what kind of family background they have, in order to contribute a little strength to the family, their marriages are always mixed with family plans, even princesses are no exception.And she, Su Taoran, can not only take care of the whole family's plans, but also take care of her own small thoughts. I'm afraid she is the happiest girl in the world right now?
Because the Zhenbei Hou Mansion owes the Su family a life, and the old Mrs. Hou is a vicious woman, father is indeed reluctant, but the family plan is there, and father has no choice but to acquiesce, and he never embarrasses her, she still What is there not to be satisfied with?
As for how difficult the old Mrs. Marquis of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is, Tao Ran is not afraid. She just hopes that Mu Huan will be more courageous, make more contributions, and make his father willing to marry her to him. But thinking of her age, Whether it was too early to be worried or happy, Tao Ran immediately restrained the happy look on his face.

Afterwards, it wasn't the various banquets hosted by the famous people in the Liaodong Prefecture to clean up the dust for Mrs. Zhenbeihou, or various spring banquets were held by various families in the first month. spring of the year.

Tao Ran has always been worried that the Khalkhas would take advantage of the situation to launch a small-scale raid the previous winter.But now that it's spring, Liaodong Mansion is still as peaceful as any other mansion in the Guan, so she put her worry about the winter back into her stomach, and asked Mama Ding and others to pack up for Xianyun and her son to go back to Beijing. .

Su Hao's injury has healed long ago, and now he has resumed his old habit of going to and from the office on time every day.After Mama Ding and everyone packed up their luggage, Su Hao also got out of the yamen, and as soon as he entered the main courtyard, he saw Xianyun's sad eyes.

It seems that this is to beg for mercy and say that you don't want to leave, but you really dare not speak?But he had delayed for several months before actually making a final decision on the return trip for the mother and son of Xianyun, and now there is no reason to delay it any longer!This Liaodong is not a good place, why not take Brother Chong back to the capital!
After Su Hao's thoughts changed, he acted as if he didn't see Xianyun standing in the corridor in front of the east wing, lightly brushed off the dust that didn't exist on his body, and strode into the main room.After changing into homely clothes and cleaning his hands and face, he told Yang Ping, "Go and call Miss Six and tell me that I have something to say."

If it was in the capital city, not to mention the back house of the magistrate's family, even if it was an ordinary family, Yang Ping and Li An were already eighteen or nineteen, and men of this age shouldn't be serving in the courtyard where the female relatives lived.

But before, the two had been serving Su Hao in the main room to heal his injuries, but now they have formed a habit, making Su Hao even more inseparable from the two of them. They just feel that the two of them are less troublesome than chattering girls and women; plus the Liaodong customs are bold, The back house of the government office is cramped, and now even if Su Hao recovers from his injuries, the two of them still follow him, they just take turns, and each of them comes in to serve for a day.

Yang Ping went in response, but when he stepped out of the main room, he almost collided with Xianyun who was standing outside the curtain.He frowned slightly, "Is Auntie looking for Master for something?"

Xianyun bowed her head sideways, "Yes, if the master is fine, please inform me."

Ever since the master replaced the servants of the main room with Yang Ping and Li An, the threshold for the main room has become higher and higher... In the past, she could still ask the maid to help inform her, and she could even get in right away. , but now he has to go through the mouths of these two long followers!But so what, she is just an aunt, how can she express her dissatisfaction?

"Auntie, why don't you come back after dinner? The master is looking for Miss Six right now." Yang Ping flatly shied away.

If Master Xun has something to do, he should announce it loudly outside the door, and Auntie should be no exception.What's the matter standing silently outside the curtain and not making a sound, who knows if she is going to eavesdrop on the master's words?

Xianyun frowned angrily.

Miss Six had already set her and Brother Chong's return trip the day after tomorrow, and the master didn't ignore it, but now she took the initiative to say it, but still told her to go back and wait?Besides, Miss Six is ​​just a child under ten years old, what business does the master have with Miss Six more important than Brother Chong's return to Beijing?
But Yang Ping doesn't care about her, as a long follower, he must avoid suspicion if he walks in this back house, right? It's important to quickly find Miss Six and tell the master!

That's why he didn't care about how Xianyun frowned, he just said those words lightly, then strode to the door of the West Wing, and called out to Mother Yang, "Master, invite Sixth Miss to come over and talk."

"Oh? Daddy thinks it's too late even the day after tomorrow, so he asked Aunt Xianyun to leave early tomorrow?" Tao Ran saluted Su Hao only after entering the main room, and he heard Su Hao's order, and immediately asked, "Why is Daddy in such a hurry for this day?" , Could it be that the Khalkhas have changed?"

Daddy pretended to be seriously injured at the beginning, it was a plan discussed with the Marquis of Zhenbei to lure the snake out of the hole and lure the enemy deep, but after one winter, the Khalkhas did not fall into this trick, and now the spring is warm, and the Khalkhas come to attack again It also missed the best time for the right time and place. This is also a good time for the herdsmen to graze. Why... choose this time instead?
"At the beginning, the Khalkha people made a mistake in their information and thought that it was you, Uncle Mu, who was patrolling the city. That's why they didn't hesitate to sacrifice the lives of the 30-member team to come down to the city." Su Hao sighed.

"If I had known this earlier, Dad would not have pretended that the injury was serious, and told you, Uncle Mu, to pretend to be so, so that we can take advantage of their winter to come and attack them, and hit them every time."

Listening to her father's theory and telling the truth, although Tao Ran was surprised, she was also a little dumbfounded—in fact, she wanted to ask whether her father was just a civil servant, and pretending to be seriously injured would have the effect of attracting the king, but she thought that the Khalkha Maybe he didn't understand the difference between the prefect and the general soldier, so he buried his doubts deeply, but looking at it now, this strategy is really... not very clever.

"It's not just that you have doubts." Su Hao was quite angry: "Father also had doubts at the beginning, but it was because you, Uncle Mu, said that Khalkha people don't understand the official positions of Han people! But they don't know official positions, but they also know the name of Liaodong General Soldier Who, they are expecting Mu Yuanjiang to be injured, not me!"

"Daddy calm down." Tao Ran got up and poured a cup of tea for Su Hao: "In any case, Daddy was really injured by an arrow, and the Liaodong border has been peaceful all winter. This is always true."

Tao Ran didn't believe that if the injured person was Zhenbei Hou, he would be able to lure the enemy.In previous years, no one was injured, and the border was frequently harassed, so which year has it been clean?As long as Daddy is okay, thank God!
