Chapter 260 Household Affairs
Not to mention the Yang Mansion's plan, compared to Yang Guozhong, Tang Li was worried about the mansion and sat in the small courtyard where Li Mi lived for a while. The two of them talked about what happened today while drinking tea and chatting. After rushing back from the inner road of Guan, Tang Li was really tired. After seeing the matter, he got up and walked towards the backyard.
When he was busy on weekdays, the inner courtyard did not wait for him to have dinner, and he had a small kitchen to prepare at all times. However, he returned from a long journey and was about to leave, and things were different. Not only Zheng Lianqing and Guan Guan, but also the old lady went to the inner courtyard to wait for him to have dinner together.
Seeing him coming back, Zheng Lianqing, who was originally talking around the old lady, and Guan Guan and a group of maids all came together. For a while, the room was very lively. Although Mrs. Tang couldn't stand the noise on weekdays, she was very happy today. Everyone gathered together to talk about the meal warmly. During this period, Tang Li said a few jokes from the inside of Guan, and adjusted the atmosphere. Everyone could experience this joy of family, and it would be better not to say it.
After eating, I sat for a while, and the old lady's smile had a little tiredness. Tang Li and Zheng Lianqing helped her back to the room, settled down and talked for a while before they got up and left this secluded courtyard. At that time, the full moon rose eastward, illuminating the quiet and elegant whole mansion. The flowers next to her made a slight rustling sound under the night wind, which was really indescribable tranquility.
"Qing'er, thank you for your hard work these days!", stretched out your hand to hold Zheng Lianqing, Tang Li looked up at the full moon in the sky, and walked slowly, and said with a chuckling: "The moonlight is hazy and the beauty is as beautiful as a flower. Seeing this scene, I actually remembered when I was in Jinzhou, Shannan."
Zheng Lianqing's little hand was a little cold, and it felt very comfortable to put it in Tang Li's warm hands. She didn't say anything when she heard this. Tang Li's slightly nostalgic voice came softly, "It should be like this moon that night! My father-in-law's house was celebrating the old lady's birthday, so I won't mention the noise. I couldn't stand the noise. I took a bottle of wine and went to the back garden. I didn't expect to see you just in time."
"I was in a mess that night, and I couldn't stand the fuss outside. I thought I would leave the next day, but I would leave after saying that, but I was always worried. After thinking carefully, I didn't know what I was concerned about. It was not until I saw you by Yue'er Lake that I realized it immediately. It turned out that it was you who was sad in my heart!"
The hand held by Tang Li tightened softly. Although Zheng Lianqing still didn't say anything, his body seemed to be as cool as the night wind, and he couldn't help but lean against Tang Li again.
Holding Zheng Lianqing's hand tightly, Tang Li stretched out his other hand and held his wife's arm, patted her lovingly. He continued the words just now and said, "You may not believe it. That night, I saw you sitting by Yue'er Lake in a white dress that night, and my heart calmed down suddenly. But I was a little sad. At that time, I really wanted to rush up and pull the veil covered on your face. It's strange. We have been married for more than a year, but I am a little bit disgusted with you. When I think of you, I always wear a white dress that day, with a white veil on my face." Speaking of this, perhaps Tang Li felt strange, so he shook his head and smiled a few times.
"I am the posture of Pu Liu..." As soon as Zheng Lianqing spoke, he was intercepted by Tang Li in words: "I don't want to listen to this. If you say you are the posture of Pu Liu, it doesn't mean that my husband has no eyesight to choose an ugly wife? Qing'er, please go out and listen. Who doesn't say that your husband is the best at knowing people with a big eye?" As soon as Tang Li finished his boasting words, he saw several people walking out of the path hidden under the branches. The moonlight was hazy, and they couldn't see who it was. When they first saw that it was Tang Li and Zheng Lianqing, they were shocked and immediately greeted him, but he was a girl in the mansion.
Seeing this scene, Tang Li didn't say anything, but just looked at Zheng Lianqing with a smile. Zheng Lianqing struggled for a while but couldn't break away from Tang Li's arms. He simply stopped moving and waved his hand in Tang Li's arms and said, "Get up! You are tired too. Go back and rest quickly."
After watching a few girls walk away quickly, Tang Li looked down at Zheng Lianqing in his arms and whispered and said, "Okay, we finally wandered like this and then we were seen by someone. Ming Ge'er still doesn't know what to say, but I'm afraid that the young master's wife is not serious!"
"Who told you not to let go of me!", gently pinched Tang Li's palm, Zheng Lianqing slowly moved forward with Tang Li's steps, but the voice in her mouth became lower and lower, "I know the thoughts of these girls, it's too late to envy them, so what can they say injustice? They dare to say in front of me in private, they all said that I found a good husband, and it was also through their mouths. Now, the inner courtyard of Chang'an City, you love us too much!" Zheng Lianqing has always been subtle in love, and this is the limit to being able to say this. Even so, as soon as she finished speaking, she buried her head in Tang Li's arms as if she was shy. The two of them have been married for more than a year, but after leaving the room, she still can't let go. But the more this dignified and polite person is, the more she adds a bit of shyness to her that she is not visible on weekdays.
Under the moon in front of the flowers, the beauty was shy. Tang Li was warm and moved for a moment. He couldn't help but lower his head. Unfortunately, Zheng Lianqing only lowered his head and refused to cooperate. As a result, the kiss fell on his smooth forehead. After rubbing the jaw with his slight whisker, Tang Li was
He sighed softly, "I am just a frivolous reputation. After the wedding that day, I must make you happy and happy. Unexpectedly, I will be able to become an official after that. It was better a while ago. It was only half a year before. I have been flattering errands outside for more than half a year. I really feel wronged." At this point, Tang Li sighed again, and after sighing, he changed into a melancholy tone: "Fortunately, the Fanyang rebellion is at the end of his strength. After this assignment, there should be nothing major to do. I will stay at home and accompany you well! At that time, Jiao'er should be back. Our family will be together every day, fight Double Land, and eat wine. Wouldn't it be happy?"
It was okay when the previous time was gone, but the words behind made Li Tengjiao, who was lying in Tang Li's arms, hard. Tang Li realized something was wrong and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Qing'er, what's wrong with your husband? What's wrong with you?"
It would be fine if he didn't ask, but this question immediately made Zheng Lianqing cry. Tang Li asked repeatedly in confusion. Then he saw Zheng Lianqing who was sobbing himself forcibly and forced himself to break out of his arms. He fell to the ground and sobbed, "Husband, I'm sorry for you, I'm cheating on you about Sister Jiao'er."
Upon hearing this, Tang Li, who was pulling her up, was stunned and asked repeatedly: "What are you lying to me? What's wrong with Jiao'er?"
"Sister Tengjiao is not going to Luoyang. She is going to the Guannei Road to find you." Zheng Lianqing's voice seemed intermittent because of sobs. "The news of your accident in Shengzhou, Husband, that day, was sent back. Sister Tengjiao said she wanted to go back to her parents' home to see her. I didn't think much about it. Unexpectedly, my sister left after leaving a letter to the old prime minister's mansion. She said she wanted to go to the Guannei Road to find you."
It was the time of war, and Li Tengjiao ran to the chaotic land. When he heard this news, Tang Li was worried, "I'm confused, why didn't you tell me this earlier! Jiao'er is there now, who else is there with her?"
"It's all my fault. I'm afraid you'll be too worried, husband. Go and take risks again! When Sister Jiao'er left, she brought four dowry to the ground to protect her. By the way, there's the white tiger! After the incident, Brother Qu chased after him."
When Tang Li heard that there was a guard with him, he breathed a little relieved, "Brother Qu, that Brother Qu? Jiao'er is there now."
"Brother Qu is the Black Heaven King. The last news that came back was that Sister Tengjiao had arrived in Shengzhou, and Brother Qu had caught up with her, but then there was no news. It has been more than ten days now, and Si Niang has sent additional personnel to Shengzhou." Speaking of this in one breath, Zheng Lianqing, who was still lying on the ground, cried again.
"If you don't inform me quickly if something big happens, you'll hide it so much!" Tang Li Jinzi was so fond of revenge outside, but he was always ruthless towards his family. He just said with a stern face, and when he saw Zheng Lianqing crying like this, he felt unbearable for a moment. He forced her to help her and said, "Don't cry, go and clean up, and ask, "Don't cry, go and clean up, and prepare, let's open the city gate early tomorrow morning, and we will go back to the inner road." After giving the order, Tang Li quickly walked towards the inner courtyard, and asked again: "By the way, do you know about this matter?"
"I didn't dare to tell the old lady about this! It was also said that Sister Tengjiao went out to visit her relatives!" Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and kept saying: "It's good that way. If anyone dares to speak in front of the old lady, he will start the rebellion immediately after the family's staff is punished."
It was destined to be unable to sleep that night. Tang Li hurriedly wrote a note to explain the situation, leaving it to Zheng Peng to pass it to Emperor Li Rui. He said that this little pony ball has become a confidant and accompaniment of the emperor. After the beginning of the year, he added the Yulin Guard. The Yulin Guard was originally the guard of honor when the emperor traveled, and all those who could participate were noble children. When Li Rui went to court, Xiaopang was on duty and followed him to read and talk. In addition to resting in the Yulin Guard barracks at night, in addition to Chang Gong during the day, these brothers of the original brothers were almost inseparable from the original brothers. Thanks to him, it relieved a lot of pressure and anxiety when Li Rui first ascended the throne. Now Tang Li is in a hurry to leave, so it is very convenient for him to pass the letter.
Before dawn the next day, Tang Li led Tang Jiu and his party out of the mansion. When he arrived at Mingde Gate, the main gate of Chang'an City had just opened. The group rushed over. After crossing the Ba Bridge, the genius officially dawned and rushed to the Xuanjia Cavalry Camp stationed in Xinfeng County. He hurriedly met Tang Yue and said, "Young Master, what happened? Is it so urgent?"
"Chang the army, start immediately after breakfast, armor? Wherever there is any hindrance of speed, two hundred people will be left and then discharged, and the others will be lightly equipped." Tang Li said this, Tang Yue was still waiting to ask, and Tang Jiu, who had been dismounted first. When the two turned around, they didn't know what they said. Tang Yue suddenly got up. After a while, she heard the desolate military trumpet sound. After two incense sticks, she took off her black armor, and the eight hundred guards with only light leather armor had gathered. Following Tang Li, the hooves were rumbling south.
Throughout the prefectures and counties, we ate and had to rest and rest, and there was almost no stop. The journey of more than ten days in the past was only half a time to Lingzhou, and then turned east. When we finally arrived at Xingzhou where the military commander's mansion was located, Tang Li and the eight hundred troops had already disappeared!
Tang Jiu, who had not shaved for a few days and looked dusty, seemed to be over 10 years old. At this time, he was trying to persuade Tang Li, who was also haggard, to take a break and go to the Grand Marshal's Mansion!"
Things are right, don’t be like snakes, snakes, scorpions and scorpions! Stay here first, and cash out the money that you accompany you with the Xuan Armor Guard. You can work with Tang Yue to get this matter done before coming to me." After giving the order, Tang Li and several other guards continued to ride horses to the temporary residence of Geshuhan.
"You are only a long time slower than the one who delivered the letter. Don't love, don't be dead!" Seeing Tang Li's current appearance, Brother Shuhan was stunned, but he didn't say much nonsense, and said directly: "Since you were in love, you had an accident in Shengzhou. After the general ordered the cleanup of Fanyang Cycling in the inner road, there was no war of more than 200 cavalry in Shengzhou. I dare to protect this. As for further news, I always need to reply to the urgent news from me, and I will know who told me to go to the ground too quickly."
It is confirmed that there is no large-scale war in Shengzhou again. Tang Li's heart was finally overwhelmed. Li Tengjiao was carrying the guards and Hei Tian met her again. As long as there is no such uncontrollable thing as a large-scale war, with the Black Heaven King's years of experience in exploring the land and the arrangement of secret lines in the north, there is still a great hope to protect Li Tengjiao's safety.
After rushing for more than a thousand miles, Tang Li felt it was worth it. After a little relaxed, his whole body aches surged up. Seeing this, Ge Shuhan did not tell him the battle situation, but just asked him to go back and have a good rest for a night before talking.
When he returned to the military commander's mansion, Tang Li did not wash his head, so he tucked his head on the couch and began to fall asleep. He slept until he woke up the next morning. Looking at his body, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He slept so hard yesterday that he didn't even feel Tang Jiu taking off his boots and shirt.
After getting up, Tang Li was washing the floor, and saw Tang Jiu coming in outside with a red scarf. The man was very tired. He rode the horse too fast and took too long. He even felt a little weak when walking. Thanks to Tang Jiu's support, he could stand firmly.
"The general told me to go directly to the military commander's office." He was stopped by Tang Li as soon as he was about to salute. "If you have any news, please tell me!"
"About two months ago, the barbarians in the northern region took advantage of the opportunity of the Shengzhou army and horses chasing Fan Yang's cavalry and raided in Shengzhou. However, the general Huangzhen returned in time, and the barbarians retreated quickly. They snatched some iron pots of salt and left. In addition, the general Huangzhen and the envoy Lu said that the place was calm in the past six months and there was nothing unusual. As for the person asked by the general Huangzhen and the envoy Lu sent people to various inns in the city to check one by one, but there was really nothing. In the past year, the inn shopkeepers and the envoys all said they had never seen it."
After hearing that there was no news about Li Tengjiao, Tang Li felt cold, but he was no longer confused. "Barbarian? What does it mean?"
"Reported to the Lord, Shengzhou is the northernmost prefecture of Guannei Road. On the east side of this state is Hebei Road, and on the north side are Yinshan. On one side are Uighurs, and on the other side are the Xi tribe outside Yuguan, Hebei Road. As soon as Hebei Road exits the vast territory of Yuguan, Xi tribe, Khitan, Shiwei, etc. Many ethnic groups scattered from south to north. Different tribes have different tribes. Tribes between the same tribes and different tribes are easy to fight. Over time, a group of people lost their tribes and gathered at the Daxue Mountains in the west.
No one obeyed the law. Later, many slaves, criminals from all races fled into the mountains and defected to them. After a long time, these people became their own tribes. Because there were all races in them, it was hard to call them, so they were called barbarians outside the mountain. The sects lived in the mountains for many years. They went down south and crossed Yinshan to Shengzhou, so they had harassment almost every year. However, the main things that these people often came to grab were salt and iron tools. As for grabbing people, they rarely heard of them."
Although the scattered words were scattered, Tang Li understood it. Then he asked some questions. Seeing that he couldn't tell any new news, he waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work, get a five-character reward, go and rest!"
After rushing to thank him, he followed Tang Jiu and left Tang Li to ponder in the house. He said that the terrain of Shengzhou is too complicated, and if you want to find someone, you should not neglect it.
When Tang Jiu came back, he followed Tang Li's orders. First, he asked the three troops of the three troops who had already been waiting to gather and quickly entered the Xi realm. Fan Yang's army was defeated just around the corner. The four troops of the five tribes of the Xi tribe who had originally followed An Lushan were already in panic. Although A San advanced a little earlier, it was safe. Following the orders of the army, a letter from Tang Li's relatives was also sent. After all, the Xi realm was the closest place to the barbarians. If Li Tengjiao really arrived at the barbarian tribe, there would definitely be news. With these six thousand troops, things would change even if things were urgent.
After arranging the local affairs of the barbarians, he then sent a letter to Li Guangbi, who was still dealing with Shi Siming in the northern part of Hebei Road, and asked him to pay attention to the matter. As for the secret line of Hebei Road, it had already been mobilized. With the issuance of Tang Li's hand-written instructions, he devoted nearly 60% of the entire force to find the whereabouts of Li Tengjiao and the Black Heavenly King. For a time, the entire Hebei Road and the northern part of Guannei Road were quite turbulent. Many local snakes who had been dormant for a long time surfaced and joined the ranks of seeking people.
Time passed day by day as Tang Li waited anxiously. At the same time, with the two armies of Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing heading north to encircle, the battle to combat the rebellion that had lasted for more than half a year reached its final end.
