Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 72
Zhending Mansion, wide Yongan Street.

A man and a woman are particularly eye-catching. They are riding a tall blue horse together. The boy in white is hugging a woman in red robe.

The man on the horseback had his hands around the woman's waist, holding the rein in his hand. The woman seemed a little shy, with a ruddy face and a coy expression.

"Let the servants come down quickly, there are so many people watching." The woman lowered her head and whispered.

"What are you afraid of? I just want to tell them that you are my woman." The man deliberately teased her.

"Oh, you are so rude..." The woman was so angry that she pinched his arm.

"Haha..." The man clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse ran forward lightly.

As soon as the two of them passed by, hundreds of Song soldiers followed closely behind, all in uniform armor. This group of cavalry kept a distance of three feet from the two in front, neither too close nor too far.

After this group of people passed by, the pedestrians along the street all looked sideways.

"What a pair of golden boy and jade girl."

"This... this girl is wearing a wedding gown?" An old pedant selling calligraphy and painting next to her asked in surprise.

"By the way, I remembered. This morning, Ma Yuanwai married a concubine in the south of the city. I heard that Yu's family is in the east of the city. It seems that Yu Yuanwai is not willing, and Ma Yuanwai forcibly snatched it." The calligrapher whispered.

As soon as he said this, several people gathered around to inquire about the news.

"Is there such a thing?" Someone interjected.

"Hmph, the Ma family has a lot of money and is used to being domineering, so what's so strange about it." The person who mentioned it earlier said very disdainfully.

"But what's going on with this officer and soldier?" Another person asked doubtfully.

Everyone shook their heads, expressing their ignorance.

Just as the crowd dispersed, a man dressed in short brown came running out of breath and said, "Do you know? The horse's house, just south of the city, was ransacked!"

"What?!" The crowd who were about to leave were suddenly attracted back.

"I went to deliver firewood to Ma's family today as usual, but guess what happened?" the short brown man deliberately kept it off.

"What's the matter?" Everyone was attracted by him and asked one after another.

"Oh, that's a tragedy. The house was smashed into disrepute, and the horseman and Mr. Ma were beaten up to the point of no one else! I was there to deliver firewood, but today his house had a wedding and lit a fire. Too much, so I added an extra trip, but it was still busy in the morning, and now it’s like this, miserable, you don’t know, no one in the family can stand, all of them have bruised noses and swollen faces..." short brown The man curled his lips and sighed for a while.

After hearing what he said, everyone was surprised, and they couldn't help but look at the back of the cavalry just now...

The two people on the horse are naturally Li Ce and Yu Xian'er.

Seeing that she was about to go to Yu's house, Xian'er said again: "Oh, you can let the slave's house down quickly, it's not good for the servants to see later, Daddy..." She suddenly stopped talking.Yu Chuanyi opposed Xian'er's marriage to Li Ce. Since ancient times, parents have made decisions about children's affairs. If Yu Chuanyi refused, Xian'er would not be able to marry Li Ce. Thinking of this, Xian'er felt depressed.

Li Ce wanted to tease her again, but a soldier came forward quickly and said, "My lord, General Chen ordered you to go back quickly."

Li Ce frowned, what's going on, hasn't the Liao army already retreated?When was it so urgent, could it be said that the Liao army went and returned?
"Xian'er, I have something important to do in the army. I have to go back immediately. Your home is ahead. I won't go in today. I will visit you another day." Li Ce gently carried Yu Xian'er off the horse.

"Well, it's okay, I can go back by myself." Yu Xian'er looked at Li Ce with big watery eyes and said.

"Several of you, escort her home, and return to the camp after everything is stable. Don't rush back." Li Ce sent someone to escort Xian'er back. Seeing Yu's behavior before, he was a little worried.

Li Ce got on his horse, and as soon as he turned the horse's head, Xian'er shouted: "Today... today is thanks to you." After speaking, he lowered his head and twisted the corner of his clothes.

Li Ce laughed loudly and said, "You girl, what's the matter today, I haven't seen you so obedient on weekdays." Seeing Yu Xian'er's expression, he clearly couldn't bear to part with him, but he was shy and refused to say it out loud. The appearance of trying to cover up is really lovable.

"Oh, you villain!" Yu Xian'er was even more ashamed when he said the central matter, she stomped her foot and said, "I don't care about you."After speaking, blushing hurriedly turned around and left, followed by a group of soldiers.

Zhending City Jinglue Mansion.

After Li Ce came in, Liu Tingzhu hurried over, "My lord, why did you come back, Chen Shuai has been waiting for you for a long time.

Li Ce nodded and stepped into the Jinglue Mansion.

As soon as he entered the hall, he found that all the leaders of the army had come, but they were all generals at the commander level, but the commander said he was the only one.

All the generals were standing, and there were three people sitting at the top, one was Chen Yaozuo, the other was He Fucun, and the third was sitting on the right side of Chen Yaozuo.This person is around forty, wearing a purple official uniform, fair complexion, a little fat, his eyes are a little small, and they look even smaller when he smiles. At this time, he is looking at everyone with a smile.

"Ce'er is here, come, this is Mr. He, Jingzhong is here to take over my position." Chen Yaozuo introduced.

Li Ce hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Mr. He."

The one called Mr. He nodded slightly, nodded, but did not speak.

This person's name is He Ruinian, and he is a second-rank member of the imperial court. He came here this time to take over Chen Yaozuo's position.

Chen Yaozuo continued with a smile, the imperial court issued a transfer order, ordering me to return to the capital before the eighth day of the seventh lunar month. The time is so tight that I will leave tomorrow. I called you all here today to hand over the affairs.

"Why is it so urgent, how can we make it back on the eighth day of the seventh month?" a general questioned.

"Hey, the empress dowager must have something important to do in such a hurry, so don't ask me any more questions." Chen Yaozuo frowned, and didn't intend to elaborate.

What followed was a series of personnel handovers, and Li Ce didn't care. He just stood aside and listened, thinking about what happened to Yu Xian'er.

"One more thing is the flood in Yizhou. The flood was finally rescued in time, and it hasn't caused too much damage. Let Li Ce be responsible for the flood in Yizhou." Chen Yaozuo said to Mr. He.

Then Mr. He seemed a little dissatisfied. He frowned and said, "What can a small commander do? Flooding is not a child's play. If you don't pay attention, it will lead to disaster. You should send a mature and prudent person. I have a man named Xu Shan is the commander of the capital, why not send him there."

Chen Yaozuo smiled slightly, waved his hands and said, "No, no, Xu Shan has just arrived and knows little about Yizhou's affairs. I'm afraid he won't be able to adapt for a while. The problem of flooding is urgent. And Li Ce has been with me in Yizhou before. He has dealt with floods, and he has done a lot of planning and planning, and he is very familiar with the affairs of Yizhou. Although he is only a commander, he can take charge of Yizhou affairs temporarily." Chen Yaozuo quickly rejected Mr. He's offer It is suggested that Li Ce should be responsible for the flood in Yizhou again.

It's not easy for Li Ce to interrupt, he doesn't understand why Chen Yaozuo doesn't care about anything else with Mr. He, but the Yizhou flood has to send him there.

Mr. He, with a troubled expression on his face, hesitated.

Li Ce moved his body and wanted to stand up and speak, but he was grabbed by the corner of his clothes by someone beside him. He was taken aback, turned around quietly, and found that it was Guan Yiqi who was holding him.

Guan Yiqi waved his hand lightly, signaling Li Ce not to speak, although Li Ce didn't understand Guan Yiqi's intention, but knew that his master would never harm him, so he backed away gently.

Master He pondered for a while, and finally said again: "Hehe...Since Master Chen insisted, you think it would be better than this, let them go to Yizhou together to control the flood, how about it?"

Chen Yaozuo was also taken aback when he heard it, he didn't expect He Ruinian to propose such a suggestion, he said so, it was really hard for him to object, so Chen Yaozuo could only nod his head in agreement.

Everyone had already left, and Chen Yaozuo left Li Ce alone.

"Come on, Ce'er, there is no outsider here. Sit down." Chen Yaozuo signaled Li Ce not to stand. He could tell that Li Ce wanted to sit down a long time ago, but because there were so many people present, everyone was standing. No matter how casual you are, you dare not sit down grandiosely.

"Do you know why today, as a teacher, you must compete with Mr. He for the matter of Yizhou?" Chen Yaozuo said suddenly.

"I don't know." This is exactly what Li Ce wanted to ask.

"Hehe... You still have a lot to learn in politics." Chen Yaozuo first sighed, and then said: The imperial court has always attached great importance to natural disasters. The ministers who went to disaster relief must be promoted as long as they have meritorious service, which is the basis of promotion. "When Chen Yaozuo said this, he paused for a while, staring at Li Ce.

Li Ce suddenly realized, and nodded with an "oh".

"The flood in Yizhou can be said to have been dealt with in a timely manner, and basically did not cause major disasters in the later period. As long as it is handled well and the project is completed on time, it will be a great achievement. The first time surnamed He is like taking the credit for himself His confidant, he has a good idea." Chen Yaozuo sneered disdainfully.

"However, He Ruinian is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He actually came up with a method of co-governance. In this way, I really can't refuse him as a teacher. After all, I will be transferred from here. He is your direct boss. If today I Push him too far, I'm afraid he will make things difficult for you in the future." Chen Yaozuo sighed a little, originally wanted to use this to remove Li Ce's position as a warrior, and let him be promoted by virtue of his merits, but he didn't want to make a mistake halfway.

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master, for caring about my disciple." Li Ce finally understood Chen Yaozuo's good intentions, and he was a little moved. .

"One more thing, alas... He Ruinian, there was a gap between Guan Yiqi and Guan Yiqi in the past, you should persuade him to pay attention." Chen Yaozuo frowned and sighed deeply.

"Oh, the old official has an enmity with Mr. He?" Li Ce was a little surprised.

"I've told you about this before. You just need to persuade him. He Ruinian is a man who will take revenge. I'm afraid he won't let it go." Chen Yaozuo interrupted Li Ce with a wave of his hand. He was leaving tomorrow, and there was really not much time left. Explain the old things to him again.

"I still have a few old friends who are going to say goodbye as a teacher, and you don't seem to care about it, go ahead and get busy with your affairs." Chen Yaozuo waved his hand, and Li Ce hurriedly stood up with a smile and said, "Then I'll go first That's it." After saying that, he ran away.
