Four hundred and eighty-fourth chapter to pay
The news that Meng Chang'an won the pass will definitely not reach Chang'an City before the New Year, but it will definitely arrive before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month at the latest. It is conceivable that the New Year has just passed, and His Majesty is so happy to receive this news.
After learning about this, the general Pei Tingshan of the Eastern Frontier just muttered to himself two words...
Yan Kaisong, the former guard of Baishan Pass, was silent for a long time when he learned the news, and then let out a long sigh, but said nothing.
Baishan Pass.
Meng Chang'an sat cross-legged on the battlements of the city walls, his body was as iron armor as ink, and his cloak on his shoulders was blood red.
As we were planning on the days, there should be a constant sound of firecrackers hanging in Chang'an City.
When I was a child, Sha Lengzi always curled up alone in the cold and cold little house next to the stable. The main room in the north was burning vigorously, and the candles were never extinguished at the thirty night. However, Lengzi's house with air and snow was not hot, and there was no light.
At that time, his family had a lot of food. He always bite the chicken leg and thought it was bad. He also bite the pork elbow. He also said that the taste was light and irritating. Then he threw the chicken leg and pork elbow he had bitten to Chen Leng, and said a few words to eat quickly and taste my saliva. His father laughed apart, and he had to show some pride. If it weren't for this, Leng Zi couldn't even eat a bite of meat during the New Year.
But whenever he thought about it, he still felt very distressed.
That's all he could do at that time.
When his father beat Lengzi, he fought to beat him because he knew that he was weak and could not beat others even if he beat him. When his father scolded Chen Leng, he pushed his father away and said that he hated swearing.
Fortunately, Lengzi is living a good life now, better than him.
It is better than him, Meng Changan feels that he is atonement.
The young general on the battlement raised his wine pot and took a sip. The wind and snow on the northeastern border were no less than the northern border. He had been sitting here alone for a long time. Even when he was drinking with his fellow comrades in the army, he felt lonely.
It seems that only when I think about that stupid cold man, I feel that I am not living alone in this world.
The reason why Baishan Pass is called Baishan Pass is because the mountain is called Baishan, and the reason why Baishan is called Baishan is because the top of the mountain is covered with white snow all year round. Meng Chang'an has become accustomed to the wind, snow, silver and cold.
"General."
Yang Qibao ran up from the bottom of the city and pointed to Chengguan: "A man came from Chang'an City and sent the package. It was sent by my general."
He was still used to calling Chen Leng the general of my family. He admired Meng Chang'an and Yang Qibao extremely much, believed, and even looked up to him. In his opinion, Meng Chang'an was a natural general, and Yang Qibao felt that he was his family and brother.
"Um?"
Meng Chang'an was filled with joy.
It's rare.
He was not happy even when he took down the city gate of Bohai Kingdom.
When he walked down the city wall quickly, Yang Qibao felt that General Meng was a little impatient at this time.
A carriage came in from outside the city gate, and more than a dozen warriors accompanied them. These warriors seemed to be ordinary tourists. Seeing so many soldiers and armor, they felt that the gates were ashamed to death, but they were not afraid of being afraid.
A man jumped off the horse's back and bowed with fists: "Go to General Meng, come from Chang'an City as General Chen Leng's instructions. He dared not delay along the way, for fear of sending things to him after the New Year."
He turned around and moved two boxes from the carriage, one for Meng Chang'an and the other for Yang Qibao.
Yang Qibao couldn't wait to open his box, which contained several new clothes. Chen Leng wrote down his height and weight and asked the best tailor in Chang'an City to sew it. The clothes would not be unfit.
In addition to clothes, there is also a box of candy. It is winter and I don’t worry about it breaking down along the way. I am all wrapped in red paper, which looks particularly festive.
Yang Qibao loves to eat candy.
The clothes, candy, and a small wooden box were opened by Yang Qibao. There was a stack of letter paper inside. He picked it up and looked at it. After a moment, his hands began to shake and he couldn't control it.
"My Brother Qibao, is it cold in the northeast? Don't freeze your little chicken when peeing. Look at the top of Baishan, does it look like the lump I pulled with you last year?"
This is written by Chen Ran.
"Brother Yang, happy New Year, you are one year older, but I am still so young and strong. I have planned to make a plan for you next year. I bought you a bunch of red shorts. In a blink of an eye, you are in your thirties and I am only seventeen."
This was written by Wang Kuohai.
"Old Yang, I heard that although the girl in Bohai Country is poor but beautiful, it is difficult to find a serious girl with your appearance. Otherwise, just catch a woman from Bohai Country. Conquering Bohai Women will also bring glory to Daning."
This is written by Dewey.
"Brother Yang, the northeast is in a hurry to get wind and snow. I bought you some typhoid medicine and golden sore medicine. The old brand in Chang'an City, although I know that it is a bit unlucky to send medicine during the New Year, I just treat it as a way to cure diseases and exorcise evil spirits, and it is a good New Year."
This is written by ancient music.
There are many more words written by the old brothers under Chen Leng’s command. The names made Yang Qibao’s hands tremble more and more violently.
There was a brother who could not write any heartwarming words, so he turned to the next piece of paper, which was painted with a fat man slapped his belly, and a little man pulled a cart next to him. There was a mountain on the car. Yang Qibao thought about it for a long time before he realized that there were only two words in the painting.
Full, heavy.
Take care of yourself.
Unable to help, Yang Qibao cried out with a cry, and clasped his fists in the direction of the southeast Chang'an City, his lips trembled.
On the other hand, Meng Changan was afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions like Yang Qibao, so he picked up his box and returned to his room. He was very anxious. When he entered the door, he turned his hand and closed the door. After thinking about it, he was unstable and inserted the door bolt.
When I opened the box, the first thing I saw was a pile of thick insoles. The insoles were embroidered with cat-like things, like cats squatting on a mudbag and pooping. It was just a bit distorted and could barely be able to recognize them.
There is also a smaller wooden box next to the insole. When you open it, you will find a stack of silver notes and a few Eastern beads.
Below are two new clothes.
The main thing is that there is also a letter. Although it is not as many as Yang Qibao's box, only one letter is, for Meng Chang'an, the weight of this letter is as heavy as that of Yang Qibao's letters.
"I didn't write the letter. I asked your brother and sister to write it for you. It's not that I don't want to write it for you. It's because my handwriting is so handsome. I'm afraid that you can't stand the handsomeness that comes to my handwriting as soon as you open the envelope. Then you accept it and bow."
"The insole is your brother and sister... Bah, why do you still habitually think that you are bigger than me? Forget it, it's just that if you don't compete for the size of the new year, it's not a matter of competing for the short term, and I don't care."
"The insoles were embroidered by your brother and sister. My Cha Ye is unparalleled in the world. The insoles are priceless... She said you are the number one tiger general in Daning, so the insoles are embroidered with a picture of a tiger going down the mountain. Isn't it very domineering?"
Meng Changan picked up the insole and looked carefully. Chen Chayan embroidered the insole with one stitch and one thread in his mind. Looking at the composition, the embroidery worker was sure that it was embroidered by Chen Chayan himself.
But this cat is squatting and pooping, why is it a tiger going down the mountain?
"You are in the distant border and snow. I know it's very hard, but you don't have to envy me. Do you think I'm eating, drinking and having fun all day in Chang'an City? I'm idle all day? I'm a beauty all day? I'm a casual and happy all day? Yes... I'm like this now."
Meng Changan turned his head and spat: "Shameless."
Keep reading.
"If I guessed right, after half a year, the soldiers in Baishan Pass have already regarded you as a god, right? If I guessed right, are you thinking about the city gate of Bohai Kingdom opposite Baishan Pass? Have you taken it down?"
Meng Changan said to himself: "It's taken down."
Read more.
"That small place in Baishan Pass is not your world. Your Majesty has a deep meaning to put you in that way. I am stupid and can't guess much. I can only think that Your Majesty is for three things, one is because of Wu Xinyu, the second is because of Pei Tingshan, and the third is... Maybe it is because of Dongjiang. If you become the general of Dongjiang in the future, will we still be good brothers?"
Meng Chang'an: "Tu..."
"The war in the northern border will be as fast as three years, and at the latest five years. Your Majesty will definitely recall you. Pei Tingshan is already old. If you have outstanding achievements in the northern border, your Majesty promises that the general of the eastern border will be able to come naturally. Although you are not as handsome as I am, I am not as tall as I am, but I am not as strong as I am, the general of the eastern border is barely worthy of you."
Meng Chang'an: "Spit..."
"This time I asked someone to bring you insoles, new clothes, tea, and some silver rewards for your subordinates. You owe me what you owe me. In the future, if you become a general from Dongjiang, you can go to the East China Sea to catch big clams and save enough beads to pay me back."
Meng Chang'an: "Get the big clams on your head."
Continue reading the letter.
"By the way, you pay the car and horse fee to others, and I told them to pay."
Meng Chang'an: "..."
"There is one last thing. Don't scold me after reading it. I'm just entrusted by someone... There is something else in the carriage. You'll make a decision after reading the letter. If you don't keep it, you don't have to get off the car and go back to Chang'an directly. The carriage is Yuezhu Mingtai."
Meng Changan's hand shook violently.
"The prince Li Xiaoshan asked someone to send a divorce letter from the northern border to Chang'an City, and a memorial to His Majesty. His Majesty has already been approved. Yuezhu Mingtai is no longer the prince's wife, she is a free person. She has looked for me several times in a row and told me that I want to see you, but I don't know how to leave. I know that you may be angry if you do this, but I can't refuse her."
"It's the same sentence I just wrote. If you think she shouldn't come, and if you shouldn't stay, she will wait for you in the carriage for an hour. If you don't go to find her, she will understand what you mean and will return."
Meng Changan let out a long breath, walked to the window and looked at the carriage.
It’s cold and the car should be very cold.
Let me believe the last sentence.
Happy New Year.
Meng Changan thought about your good dear, you gave me such a big problem. Do you really wish me a happy New Year?
He sat down in the chair and stared out the window in a daze.
In the carriage, Yuezhu Mingtai lowered her head and her face became paler and paler.
There was an hourglass in the carriage. She had planned it and it took just one hour to leak.
The maid Jinghu kept looking carefully at His Royal Highness the face of His Royal Highness, and the more she looked, the more worried she became. She knew how much torment this was for His Royal Highness.
Very cold.
Very long.
Jinghu held Yuezhu Mingtai's cold hand: "Your Highness?"
Yuezhu Mingtai looked at the hourglass with only the last little sand left, and smiled bitterly: "Let's go."
The chariot and horses were turned, the guards were on their horses, and they were ready to leave the city.
"The house was cleaned up, it was too dirty and messy, so it took some time and I also lit the fire."
Outside the car was Meng Changan's voice, as if he was tired, his voice trembled slightly.
"I'm really embarrassed to ask you to get out of the car. The vacant houses in the border are all used to pile things. Not to mention sitting, there is not even a place to stay. After cleaning up for a while, the furniture needed is not complete for a while, and I feel wronged."
Yuezhu Mingtai looked at the person outside the window who could not be seen through the curtains.
laugh.
