Captain Wang is a righteous man, and his backing is very strong. This is the unanimous conclusion everyone reached after deliberation. As for how much weight the relationship between Captain Wang and the person behind him can bear, everyone will not go into it.
Think about it. For a drowning person, even if it is a straw, he must hold on to it as a means of saving his life. What's more, the situation is far from that bad.
Wang Xun, who was walking at the front of the team, didn't know that everyone regarded him as a life-saving straw, and he didn't realize that a steel knife was already hanging on his neck. When he left Chang'an for the first time, he didn't have much nostalgia in his heart.
Feeling relaxed and indescribable.
A few days before this, he had expressed his intention to leave the capital and go to Anxi Town for training in person to his immediate boss Chen Xuanli. Although Chen Xuanli was a little reluctant at the time, he also said that "the fame will be obtained immediately", and he and Gao
After negotiating with General Lishi, he will try his best to fulfill his wish. Soon afterwards, Gao Lishi personally went to the military camp to point the general, and ordered Wang Xun to lead dozens of guards to escort a batch of important ordnance to Shule for delivery. He also quietly hinted to him
, if you want, you can stay under Feng Changqing's command temporarily and there is no need to rush back to the Feilong Forbidden Army.
Therefore, to a certain extent, half of this mission was obtained by Wang Xun's initiative, and it was not considered a chore. As for the fact that the brothers traveling with him were all familiar faces, Wang Xun took it as a matter of course.
My bosses take good care of me, so besides being grateful to my bosses, I don't think of anything else at all.
In addition, this errand also allowed him to escape a very big problem, which was the tangled housework. Aunt Yun and Zi Luo had deep prejudices against Bai Yuzhi, which Wang Xun knew very well. I thought
I adopted the method of cutting first and telling later, and I was able to get through. But I didn't expect that I suddenly stabbed the hornet's nest. When I got home that afternoon, Aunt Yun pushed over all the ledgers and keys, and declared that she would "accept women's ways" from now on.
Then she interfered in any problems at home. But Ziluo did even more cruelty. In the name of fulfilling Wang Xun's filial piety for Aunt Yun, she hid in the yard where the latter lived and refused to show her face. Wang Xun couldn't even say a soft word to beg for mercy.
Help pass it on.
Wang Xun was used to being the shopkeeper, so how could he take care of so many things at once? He was so busy that Han Shigu, who had organized a blind date banquet last time, sent a letter again, saying that the girl’s parents were dissatisfied with Wang Xun’s decision to marry him.
His wife was very dissatisfied with his previous behavior of lingering in a brothel. If he could not change his ways, the Xu family would rather give up the marriage than push their daughter into the pit of fire. As the elder of both parties, Han Shigu advised Wang Xun to return from his lost ways.
Don't ruin your bright future for a brothel girl.
"Where are these things? Who did I provoke?" Wang Xun sent away the servant who delivered the message, and tore into pieces the teachings that Han Shigu had written so painstakingly. He just went to Han Shigu's house for a banquet.
I didn't even remember which of the heads of the Xu family was present, but he actually became someone else's prospective son-in-law. Is it morally wrong to marry a brothel girl before getting married? What about driving around in carriages after getting married?
If you have a girl from Silla in your family, is that considered a gentleman or a saint?
Before he could vent the anger in his stomach, several elders related to the Wang family also came to the door one after another. They all sided with Aunt Yun and accused him of his fault. And many of them have been since Wang Xun's father passed away.
He no longer had any contact with his family. He suddenly started to make irresponsible remarks, which really made Wang Xun unable to adapt.
Fortunately, Bai Yuzhi was considerate and never forced him to do everything right immediately. She also proposed that instead of making the elders unhappy after getting married, it would be better for her to live longer in the small courtyard in Mingke Lane.
The days left a buffer time for both parties. This kind of surrendering attitude made Wang Xun feel more and more guilty. He always felt that if he did not fulfill his promise that night, he would have let down the other party, and he would never have peace of mind in his life.
"It's nothing! Since my aunt doesn't like me like that, I won't get a good look if I enter your house. And I'm not very good at making the old man happy, so I might put you in a dilemma one day. Instead of that,
It's better to be like now, with neither party seeing the other." Bai Yuzhi smiled and gently squeezed Wang Xun's shoulders.
"She was just mad at me for a moment. She will get better soon!" Wang Xun patted the back of Bai Yuzhi's hand and smiled to reassure her. "Since I was a child, I have basically never disobeyed her.
This incident happened suddenly, and she probably won’t be able to turn around for a while. She will get better gradually, I promise!”
"Don't worry, come little by little!"
"Ok, I know!"
The two people chatted in meaningless whispers, which made Wang Xun forget a lot of worries for the time being. It wasn't until he returned to his home in Chongrenfang that he realized what it meant to be exhausted again.
An order from Gao Lishi brought an end to all problems.
"You actually want to go to Anxi? You child, how could you do this..." When Wang Xun carefully informed Aunt Yun about the upcoming business trip, Aunt Yun's tears immediately flowed down. "Isn't it because I didn't promise you?
Are you going to marry that white man? Are you going to go all the way? My aunt agrees to it. I will agree to it right away. Go and tell General Chen Xuanli immediately and ask him to appoint someone else!"
"This is a military order, my good aunt!" Wang Xun couldn't bear to see the woman's tears, so he stood aside and explained at a loss. "The military order is like a mountain. You can't say you won't do it, but you will do it. If you don't obey the order, tomorrow I will
Your head must be hung on the flagpole!”
"Ah!" Aunt Yun was so frightened that she stopped crying and looked pitifully at the child she had raised. As an elder, who doesn't want their children to have a smooth career? She was angry with the other party some time ago, and it was indeed because of
The future of the other party was considered. I thought I could force Wang Xun to submit, but I never expected that in the end, I was forced to get such a result.
"Don't worry. Now that the Tang Dynasty is at peace, who dares to think about the imperial armaments? When it comes to Uncle Feng's territory, no one dares to provoke me. From the generals leading the troops to the captains and brigade leaders, last year
I've made a lot of friends!" Wang Xun didn't dare to tell Aunt Yun that he planned to stay in the Western Regions for a while, fearing that Aunt Yun wouldn't be able to accept it for a while. Anyway, Feng Chang told Aunt Yun early in the morning that he wanted to take him to the Anxi Army for training.
At that time, she would push the old guy and tell him that he would not let her go. Aunt Yun would probably understand more easily.
Seeing the expectation inadvertently revealed on Wang Xun's face, Aunt Yun knew that it was useless to say anything at this moment. The child had grown up and had begun to choose his own path. There was no way to escape this moment, no matter how hard she tried to delay it,
It's just the difference between one day earlier and one day later.
Thinking of this, she gently squeezed ***'s red eyes and asked in a low voice: "You have nothing else to hide from me, right? Apart from agreeing to marry that woman, have you offended anyone recently?"
?”
"No, look at you, where did you think of it all of a sudden?" Wang Xun's head immediately shook like a wavy drum. "Since Yuwen boy got out, I am at home every day except for the military camp. How can I have time to cause trouble?
"
"That's true!" Aunt Yun nodded lightly, and she immediately felt more relaxed. Her children must be good children, and bad things are all caused by other people's little bastards. This is the only law in the hearts of parents. On second thought, she
Immediately he asked uneasily: "Isn't the troublemaker from the Yuwen family also in Anxi? Has he caused any trouble again?"
"No! He is highly appreciated by Uncle Feng, and he was recently promoted to captain. He is on the same level as me!" Wang Xun smiled, with a hint of envy in his words.
"We would rather not get that kind of fame that we risk our lives for!" Aunt Yun immediately straightened her face and warned worriedly. "When you get there, don't get involved with him! I will write a special letter to Feng Changqing to let him know.
He will send you back soon!"
"Okay, okay. It's all up to you!" Wang Xundeng's head suddenly trembled and he said nonchalantly. "I have to make preparations quickly. The boss is urging me urgently."
Before he could escape to the door, Aunt Yun's call came from behind again. "Xun'er!" This was the first time Aunt Yun greeted him so solemnly. In the past, it was Ming Yun, little guy, you kid, etc. He couldn't help but
Stopping in his tracks, he turned around and met Aunt Yun's eyes. From the latter's eyes, he saw deep reluctance. "You can take Bai Xingshou home tomorrow! When you are not in Chang'an, she will guard the house by herself."
An empty yard is quite difficult!”
"Aunt..." After a long time, Wang Xun couldn't believe that he heard Aunt Yun's words clearly at that time. The sudden change made him confused, but the love and affection shown in the other party's eyes was unquestionable, just like when he was a child, he teased
When he got sick, after the other person scolded him, he would always hold him in his arms and comfort him with gentle words.
"You kid!" Aunt Yun added in a low voice with a little unwillingness, "You are so impatient. You can't wait for several months! If you marry a beautiful concubine before getting married, who would be willing to marry off their daughter?
Give it to you as your wife? Forget it, don’t worry about it, I will find a way to deal with this matter. When you come back from Anxi, I will keep it so that you can get what you want!"
"Auntie!" In an instant, Wang Xun felt something warm rolling slowly in his eyes. He didn't want to lose Aunt Yun's love because of Bai Yunzhi, not at all. What was his biological mother like?
His memory has long been blurry. But everything Aunt Yun has done for him since he was a child is still vivid in his mind at this moment.
Aunt Yun stepped forward with a smile, stood on tiptoes, and gently touched Wang Xun's head. "Go! Take her home and live there first. I'll tell the servants not to wait for her too long. I'll wait for you.
When you return from Anxi, I will prepare a banquet for you. How can you get married quietly? That would not only wrong her, but also you!"
"Yes!" Wang Xun agreed in a low voice and quietly lowered his body a little to make it easier for the other party to touch her.
Aunt Yun's palm was no longer as soft as he remembered. But the warmth from the palm always warmed him, from Chang'an to the Western Regions.
