Returning to a familiar environment always makes people feel at ease, and although the food is not good, the family brought out a jar of good wine that they were reluctant to drink, and prepared to ask what the Marquis had done to the fief these days.
It seems that they also have a chance to visit the fiefdom.
People who have retired from the army probably all have one characteristic. They eat very quickly. Xiao Han occasionally eats with them. Xiao Han's bowl is almost untouched, and he stuffs the last grain of rice into his mouth, and then looks at Xiao Han.
It's so cold that he can't get enough to eat every time...
We didn’t come here for fun this time, so we ate everything but didn’t drink a sip of wine. As for their question about the fiefdom, well, apart from the two small shabby wooden houses, there really wasn’t much to talk about...
Zhang Qiang leaned on the basket and waited for late night to fall. He actually wanted to go to his house to see his wife, but the wooden box lying quietly behind him always reminded him of his current responsibilities, so he could only suppress this thought.
"No hurry, no rush, I will come and pick you up as soon as the money is exchanged. My wife cannot live with a poor man..."
The night is getting deeper, and sporadic light rain is falling in the sky. The Wuhous on the street are like ghosts, wandering in the streets and alleys of Chang'an. This kind of weather is what the Wuhous don't like the most, because thieves and robbers...
I like to go out in this kind of weather. If there is a case in that city, then Marquis Wu who is in charge here will also be in bad luck...
Therefore, whenever it is a rainy day, the Wuhous are always the most irritable. If they catch an unidentified person on the street, they will beat him first and then talk about it. They are all wet and it is just a good time to do some exercise to warm up the body!
But something was different today. In addition to Wuhou, there was another group of people scattered on the street, and the goals of this group of people were very strange, and they were all gathering towards the roots of the imperial city.
No one was on horseback, they were all on foot. Either excited or cautious, they gathered towards the same place under the cover of night. But don't be nervous, these are not going to attack the palace!
"who?"
In the deep alley, several Wu Hous drew their swords and blocked the way of Zhang Qiang and others. Zhang Qiang opened his bamboo hat and glanced at the leader Wu Hou expressionlessly.
Hou quickly saluted and quietly retreated.
Putting on the bamboo hat again, Zhang Qiang tightened the straps on his shoulders, and left in a hurry. When Xiaodong passed by several Wuhou, he raised his hand, and a dozen big pieces flew towards the Wuhou in front.
Hou.
No movement was seen from Marquis Wu, and a dozen copper coins were put into his sleeves. He gently weighed the coins in his sleeves, and Marquis Wu held his hands towards Zhang Qiang who was walking away, and continued to inspect the next place.
Today is also a good day!
Where is the ghost market?
The ordinary people in Chang'an City didn't know at all, and if Xiao Han guessed, he would never guess that the ghost market is actually at the foot of the palace!
Standing in the ghost market, when you look up, you can see the high walls of the palace, and there seem to be people moving around on the walls.
Xiaodong followed Zhang Qiang closely. This time the fool didn't come. He was too stupid and Zhang Qiang was unwilling to take him, so he could only stay at home and play with Xiao Han.
The light rain in the sky is gradually getting heavier. People in the ghost market are really like wandering ghosts. From time to time they go under the eaves on both sides of the path and chat with the stall owners in low voices. Covered by the light rain,
If you're not close to me, you can't hear what they say at all!
The ghost market is very long. Zhang Qiang and Xiaodong walked in the quiet ghost market for a long time before they found an open space. Xiaodong quickly pulled out a foot of cloth from his arms and spread it on the ground. Zhang Qiang then put the wooden boxes containing glassware in turn.
Take it out and place it on the cloth.
When the lid is opened, the crystal clear glass reflects a strange light under the weak illumination of the lantern.
A young man in a raincoat just passed by. His eyes were dazzled by the light. He exclaimed, "Huh!", turned around and walked back. He squatted in front of Zhang Qiang's small stall and looked at these things carefully.
It started to thunder. Autumn thunder is too rare, so with the sound of thunder, countless people woke up from their sleep.
Butler Lu came out of the tent wearing a raincoat and walked around the place where the goods were stacked. He saw that all the things that were afraid of getting wet had been moved to the shack. The auxiliary soldiers on the night shift were on guard all around, and then went to Xiao Han's wooden house.
I listened outside and heard a faint sound of snoring, so I felt relieved and went back to sleep.
Li Jiancheng woke up from his sleep irritably, walked half-naked to the door of the palace, opened the door, and saw a gust of wind pouring in directly from outside the door like a flood.
The beauty on the bed ignored her naked body, picked up a pajamas, ran to Li Jiancheng's side, and hurriedly put it on for him.
Li Jiancheng was not the only one watching the rain. His brother Li Shimin was also watching the rain. The difference was that the rain in front of him was mixed with bright red blood.
Li Shimin is good at surprise attacks and likes to take risks. This is not a good habit for a general. Maybe you succeed in taking risks nine times, but your failure on the tenth time will make you lose completely.
Fortunately, Li Shimin had a mind born for fighting and knew clearly what he should do and what he shouldn't do. But this time, he did something he shouldn't do.
"King Qin, we need to retreat quickly. If the Turks find out that we have killed their people, things will become big!"
A military general wearing a raincoat clasped his fists and urged Li Shimin to go first. In the military camp, even if you disagree with the commander's opinion, as long as you give an order, everyone must obey the commander unconditionally. Although the military commander thinks this is extremely risky, he will do it if he does it.
, the best way to deal with it is to deal with the aftermath as soon as possible.
"Don't panic, drag all the bodies away. I remember there is a ditch in front of you, throw them all into the ditch!"
"Yes! Where are those people..." The general answered the order in a deep voice. He was about to turn around, but stopped, pointed at a group of people shivering under the rain, and asked.
Li Shimin frowned slightly, then let go and said to the general: "Take them with you. When we return to Longyou, those who have families will go home, and those who have no homes will send a team to my fief! I will follow
The people there said hello and asked them to take these people in!"
"Yes!" The general clasped his fists again, then turned around to make arrangements.
Li Shimin stood there, letting the cold rain hit him, his eyes fixed on the north, and veins popped out on his hands!
"Tujue, one day I will make you extinct!"
