In Yaxing, Nancheng City, Rongcheng, Shang Laojiu looked at the two children in front of him with a twitching face. Their whole bodies were wrapped like rice dumplings, leaving only a pair of eyes outside.
It was winter, and he didn't want to receive guests at all. However, the two children in front of him were young, but they were very generous. As soon as they entered the door, they smashed a silver ingot worth ten taels on the table.
Shang Laojiu was a little jealous when he saw the silver ingot. He stretched out his hand to take the silver ingot in his hand, when he saw a hand wearing cotton gloves holding the silver ingot.
"Boss, you still can't get this money."
"You two young guests, what do you want to do?"
"We want to change our household registration, do you have any connections?"
"Change household registration?! Hey, this is not easy to do. Even if it can be done, it will cost a lot of money."
"The money thing is nothing. We are military households and we want to become ordinary citizens..."
Before Li Wuya finished speaking, Shang Laojiu interrupted: "Are you a military household? Please invite the two guest officers. I can't receive you here."
With that said, he was about to chase Li Wuya and Li Qilang out.
"Why? You just said you could do it?" Li Wuya and Li Qilang were too lazy to leave.
Shang Laojiu was a little annoyed: "That's because I didn't know you were a military household. The management of military household registration is the strictest. I really have no way here."
Li Qilang said: "We have money, we are not short of money."
Shang Laojiu: "No matter how much money you have, I can't do it. If you spend all your money during the Taiping years, you might still have a small chance, but..."
"What is the situation now? Da Chu and Bei Yan are at war. So many soldiers have died in the past few years. I heard that there is a special shortage of people in the military camp. Let alone military households. Maybe even ordinary civilian households will have to perform military service in the future.
Already."
"At this time, you still want to change your military household registration. What are you thinking about?"
Li Wuya frowned: "Boss, it may not be easy to change military household registration, but I don't believe it. There will be no way at all?"
As he said that, he took out another ingot of silver and put it on the table.
Shang Laojiu looked at Yin Yuan Bao and was very jealous, but in the end he shook his head: "It's not that Yin Zi and I can't get along, it really can't be done."
Li Wuya didn't believe it: "Is there no military household that has successfully changed their household registration?"
Shang Laojiu glanced outside the door, and then lowered his voice and said: "Yes, but that was in the past. After the new governor came, he vigorously rectified the Duhu Mansion. Now no one dares to commit crimes against the trend."
As he said that, he looked at Li Wuya and Li Qilang.
"You two... your family is a military household, right?"
The two siblings didn't speak.
Shang Laojiu didn't care about their attitudes and said with a smile: "You two must have run away with your family behind your back, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to me so rashly to talk about changing your household registration.
"
Seeing doubts in the eyes of the siblings, I kindly explained to them.
"Since it is a military household, there must be soldiers in the family who have gone to the battlefield. If you go to the battlefield, you cannot change your household registration."
Li Wuya: "Why?"
Shang Laojiu laughed: "Why? If the soldiers on the battlefield can leave at will, what do you want the other soldiers who are left to think? Doesn't this shake the morale of the army?"
Li Wuya was still a little unwilling: "Boss, is there really nothing you can do?"
Shang Laojiu shook his head simply: "Unless the imperial court grants amnesty, there is no other way. Well, it's winter, you two little kids won't feel cold if you run out, so go home quickly."
Li Wuya and Li Qilang walked out of Yaxing depressedly.
"Sister, what should we do now?"
Li Wuya knew that changing military household registration was not easy, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult. At this time, she had no choice.
Looking at the Yamen opposite the dental shop, Li Wuya felt a little depressed.
Now they have no shortage of money, but... in this hierarchical ancient world, things can't be done just by having money, you also have to have status.
What they can't do by begging grandpa or grandma can be solved by others with just one word.
"Let's go home first. We have been out for more than half a month. If we don't go back, mother and sister will have to worry again."
The two siblings left Rongcheng that day.
Not long after the two left, the Tianluo Sect's lair was discovered, and it quickly spread to all the major forces in the northwest.
Li Wuya and Li Qilang were completely unaware of how much of a sensation this incident caused. They were rushing towards Tianling Tun at full speed.
"Sister, my Qing Gong has improved again. You see, I can now step on the snow without leaving a trace."
Li Wuya looked at the complacent Li Qilang and didn't want him to be too arrogant: "But your speed is not good enough." As he said that, he accelerated, and in the blink of an eye he was far away from Li Qilang.
Li Qilang felt depressed again when he saw it, and hurriedly caught up: "Sister, can't you just let me go?"
"Will your enemies let you?"
"Sister, why did you go to Tianshan?"
"Let's go to Tianchi Peak to get the guqin and flute first." She didn't expect that the guqin and jade flute sent by Cheap's apprentice would come in handy one day. Fortunately, she didn't sell them before.
By the time Li Wuya and Li Qilang returned to Tianlingtun, it was already the end of October.
The two siblings had just returned to the military camp. When they passed the entrance of the village, they saw the people in the village looking at them with strange eyes. They couldn't help but feel a little bit in their hearts.
The last time something happened at home, they looked at them like this. Could something happen at home again?
Li Wuya and Li Qilang's expressions changed, and they eagerly asked the nearest person.
"Second uncle, something happened to our family?"
"Wuya, Qilang, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's just that your brother was injured and someone else brought him back..."
Before he finished speaking, the two siblings disappeared.
...
Ever since Li Wuya's family moved in, Ye Mo's residence has been expanded. There used to be only one room, but now there are five rooms, and the yard has also been enlarged a lot.
"mother!"
"Second sister!"
Before he even got close, Li Qilang's loud voice came into the yard.
In the kitchen, Li Erya, who was boiling medicine, ran out immediately. As soon as he opened the courtyard door, Li Wuya and Li Qilang arrived: "Why did you come back?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Sister, what's wrong, brother?"
Li Wuya and Li Qilang asked anxiously.
Li Erya led the two people into the house and said: "The doctor in the military camp has seen it. Three of my ribs were broken and there was some internal bleeding. But don't worry. My condition is now stable. As long as I
Just take good care of it at home."
When Li Wuya heard that it was so serious, he entered the house in three steps and then saw Li Sanlang lying on the kang with a bloodless face.
"came back?"
Li Sanlang was still very weak at the moment and his voice was a little soft.
When Li Qilang saw it, he immediately ran over. With red eyes, he wanted to touch Li Sanlang, but he was afraid of hurting him, so he could only stand at a loss by the kang: "Brother, why are you hurt so badly?"
Li Wuya walked over with a sullen face: "Did someone from the Huyan family do it?"
Li Sanlang shook his head: "I don't know. That man is very skilled. I couldn't avoid his attack. If General Zhuang Shen and my father hadn't arrived in time, I would have been dead now."
"That man should be a ninth-level master. In order to save me, General Zhuang Shen and my father were injured a little." Seeing Li Wuya and Li Qilang's anxious expressions, they quickly said: "Don't worry, my father is fine, he just suffered a little."
Skin trauma.”
Li Wuya didn't ask any more questions. She grabbed Li Sanlang's wrist and felt for his pulse. At the same time, he used his mental power to explore Li Sanlang.
"Brother, take good care of yourself and everything will be fine."
Li Sanlang wasn't too worried before. Since taking the decoction prepared by his younger sister, he has obviously felt that his body has become much stronger. Some minor injuries and illnesses can be healed quickly even without taking medicine.
Now that his little sister is back, he is no longer worried about his injuries.
You know, my little sister is the apprentice of old man Tianchi.
After Li Wuya came back, she took over Li Sanlang's illness. In addition to taking medicine on time, she also performed acupuncture on Li Sanlang every night.
When the silver needle pierced the acupuncture point, the healing power flowed into Li Sanlang's body along the silver needle, quietly helping him repair his body.
Other people had to stay in bed for two or three months with broken ribs, but with Li Sanlang, he could get up and move around after more than half a month.
"Brother, why are you up?"
When Li Erya saw Li Sanlang going to the ground, his face showed disapproval.
Li Sanlang smiled and moved his arms and legs: "I'm almost healed."
"It's almost done. Didn't Wu Ya say that I'll let you take care of yourself for three months? Don't rush back to Dieling Pass. It's so dangerous on the battlefield, so just stay at home with peace of mind."
Li Erya insisted on helping Li Sanlang lie down on the kang again: "It takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones. How long have you been doing? Just lie down."
Li Sanlang knew that his elder sister was concerned about him, so he smiled helplessly, and then looked at the sky outside the window: "Why haven't Wuya and Qilang come back yet?"
Today, Li Wuya and Li Qilang went to Dieling Pass to deliver some food and medicine to Li Changsen.
Li Erya was also a little worried: "According to their schedule, they should have come back a long time ago. Nothing will happen, right?"
Li Sanlang was silent for a moment: "Don't think blindly, it must have been a delay on my father's side." With Wu Ya and Qi Lang's light skills, even if they encounter any accidents, it would be difficult for anyone to stop them.
It wasn't until dark that Li Wuya and Li Qilang came back.
Seeing both of them frowning, Li Sanlang and Li Erya were both a little nervous: "What's wrong, something happened to dad?"
Li Qilang shook his head: "No, we waited all day, but we didn't see dad at all."
Li Sanlang frowned: "How could this happen? Is there another war today?"
Li Wuya looked at Li Sanlang: "The blame lies here. There is no fighting today. Why doesn't dad have time to see us?"
Li Sanlang comforted his younger brothers and sisters: "Don't worry, maybe dad has something to do and can't get away."
Li Wuya nodded, and two days later, he took Li Qilang to Dieling Pass again, but he still didn't see Li Changsen.
After returning home, Li Wuya said to Li Sanlang: "Brother, I feel something is wrong."
Li Sanlang's face straightened: "What's wrong?"
Li Wuya frowned: "Something may have happened to dad. I saw my deputy captain at Dieling Pass today. The way he looked at me made me a little panicked."
Hearing what she said, Li Sanlang couldn't calm down anymore: "I will go back to Dieling Pass tomorrow."
None of the four siblings dared to tell Jin Yue'e about this. Fortunately, Jin Yue'e worked as an errand at the inn and didn't have much time at home, so she didn't notice anything strange.
Early the next morning, Li Sanlang took his younger brothers and sisters to Dieling Pass.
"You guys wait for me outside the city. As soon as there is news about dad, I will come out and tell you."
After Li Sanlang entered the city, he went directly to the forward camp and walked around, but he neither found Li Changsen nor found any information.
After a moment of silence, Li Sanlang went straight to the captain's camp.
Seeing Li Sanlang, the captain was very surprised: "Is your injury healed?"
Li Sanlang did not answer directly, but directly asked Li Changsen's whereabouts: "Sir, where is my father?"
When Li Changsen was mentioned, the commander immediately fell silent.
Seeing him like this, Li Sanlang became even more panicked: "Did something happen to my father?"
The captain hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, "Come with me to see General Zhuang."
Hearing this, Li Sanlang's heart sank.
His father was just a squad leader, so how could he alert General Zhuang?
Did something really happen to dad?
Li Sanlang's face instantly turned pale, especially when he thought of the ninth-grade master who attacked him on the battlefield, he instantly imagined various scenes of Li Changsen being tortured and killed.
By the time they arrived at Zhuang Yutang's camp, Li Sanlang had frightened himself so much that his face turned pale.
But in Zhuang Yutang's eyes, his appearance meant that he was still injured and forced himself to come over to inquire about Li Changsen.
"Your dad...should be fine now."
Li Sanlang immediately caught the flaw in Zhuang Yutang's words: "It's okay now, but what about the future? Will something happen in the future?"
Zhuang Yutang was silent for a moment, waved his hand to retreat, and then said: "Some time ago, there were signs of a truce in Beiyan. Do you know this?"
Li Sanlang nodded.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhuang Yutang: "But, just half a month ago, the Beiyan Army began to frequently provoke wars again."
Li Sanlang didn't understand what this had to do with his father, but he didn't dare to interrupt Zhuang Yutang, so he could only suppress the anxiety in his heart and listen quietly.
Zhuang Yutang's expression was not very good: "This is so strange. The Governor sent many people to investigate, and then I found out that it turned out that the Beiyan Army had brought another batch of food and grass from somewhere to make up for the shortage of food and grass."
"Their food and grass supplies have been replenished, but we...we have no food and grass to replenish them."
"In these years of fighting against Beiyan, the national treasury has long been emptied. Now there is no food and grass to support the continuation of the war, so..."
Zhuang Yutang looked at Li Sanlang: "So, in order to force Beiyan to cease fighting, Beiyan's batch of grain and grass must be destroyed."
Hearing this, Li Sanlang instantly understood what Li Changsen was doing: "My father..."
Zhuang Yutang: "After reporting to the court, the Governor personally selected a group of skilled soldiers and formed a team to burn Beiyan's grain and grass. Your father took the initiative to sign up to participate."
"Everyone who participates in this operation can make a condition. Your father's condition is that as long as the Beiyan Army's food and grass can be burned, your family's military household registration will be changed."
Li Sanlang swayed and was a little unsteady on his feet.
Food and grass...the army's food and grass are so important. The Beiyan Army will definitely send heavy troops to guard it. How difficult it is to burn it down!
Now that his father is gone, can he come back?
Zhuang Yutang looked at Li Sanlang and said, "Your injury is not healed yet. Go home and take good care of yourself." After saying that, he asked someone to come in and take Li Sanlang away.
At the gate of the city, Li Wuya and the other two saw Li Sanlang walking out with helpless hands and feet, and their hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
"Brother, dad is fine, right?"
Seeing Baba looking at his three younger brothers and sisters, Li Sanlang couldn't hide the sadness on his face, and with a trembling voice, he told Li Changsen that he was going to burn the Beiyan Army's rations.
Li Erya and Li Qilang's expressions changed drastically, and Li Wuya also had a solemn expression.
In order to change her household registration, her father joined the death squad!
The army granary must be in the rear of the Beiyan army. If her father is gone, can he still come back?
