Chapter 69 Good news and Xiao Qi went to Beijing together (for collection)
To say that Zhang Qian, who served the emperor all the year round, was really considerate in his daily life.
Because Zhao Shen added the title of Zhang Xiu's Gaoming wife, Zhang Qian knew that Xiao Qi had been fighting all the time, so he must not be able to find a suitable official sedan chair there.
Before leaving Beijing, Zhang Xiu unexpectedly brought an official sedan chair carried by four people. Zhang Xiu wanted to go to Beijing with Xiao Qi on horseback, but Xiao Qi persuaded him.
Are you kidding me, for a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles, the young man in the previous life would not be able to stand the bumps in a passenger car, so he advised her to take a sedan chair.
Anyway, Zhang Qian also left in a sedan chair, and the two sedan chairs happened to be together so it didn't waste time. Besides, Zhang Qian kindly sent you the top sedan chair all the way, but you thanked him as well, but he rode a horse when he left. Isn't that embarrassing to others what.
Originally, Zhang Xiu thought that his riding skills were quite good now, and he wanted to try to ride a horse.
Xiao Qi directly asked her to recall what happened to her when she first got that nasty horse in the farm.
At that time, because of his proficiency in riding skills, Xiao Qi rode a horse for a long time when he had nothing to do all day long. In a few days, the flesh on the inner sides of his legs were worn out. As a result, he walked around the house like a compass for two days before he recovered. .
Xiao Qi warned Zhang Xiu, we are going to Beijing to meet the saint.
You can think about it, when the time comes, are you sure you want to draw a compass and go up to the court, so that those civil and military officials can see your embarrassment?
Although Zhang Xiu didn't know what compasses were, but thinking about Xiao Qi's embarrassing appearance when he walked, he decisively decided to take the sedan chair.
However, he still asked to bring his war horse with him. Of course, Xiao Qi had no objections at all. If there were any accidents in the capital, he could immediately lead her back to Chuzhou on horseback and kill people.
Xiao Qi was still very dissatisfied with the sedan chair at this time, the seat was too hard.
Before setting off, Xiao Qi put all the fur mattresses and furs he had seized into the sedan chair for Zhang Xiu, and let Zhang Xiu try to see how soft they were after a while.
Zhang Xiu is speechless, on such a hot day, you want to kill me with all those winter things, so you can find a beautiful lady in the capital!
But Xiao Qi doesn't care about this, how hot can it be, and is it hot to ride a horse outside and bask in the sun?
Sitting comfortably is the last word!
At least your sedan has a roof to provide shade, but in the end, because Zhang Xiu said those furs were too thick, Xiao Qi took out a piece of silk and wrapped the cushion with a layer of silk, so Zhang Xiu stopped raising his objections.
Zhang Xiu, who was born as a poor child, is now only happy to look at those silk silks all day long, and she is reluctant to use silk silk to make clothes.
That's good, I just made an opinion, and the two hundred and five men of my own "Zi La" "Zi La" a few times, and a good piece of silk was ruined.
Xiao Qi saw his little daughter-in-law staring sideways at him for a long time, and after thinking for a while, he understood what was going on.
He went forward and put his arms around Zhang Xiu's shoulders, and said to her: "These things are for people to use. Now we have the conditions to use them, and we don't lack these things. Don't you need to keep them to wait for moths to eat?"
Looking at what Zhang Xiu was wearing, it was still a newly made coarse cloth shirt. She couldn't even bear to make a piece of silk and satin.
Xiao Qi was also filled with guilt, he was always fighting everywhere these days, and he even forgot to order someone to make some nice clothes for his daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, this time the emperor rewarded his wife with a set of phoenix coronets and Xiapei, otherwise it would be bad for his daughter-in-law to wear coarse clothes when she went to see the emperor.
On the contrary, Zhang Xiu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, but felt that she was very satisfied with the new clothes now.
Xiao Qi discussed with Zhang Xiu, went to the capital to find a good tailor, and made some more good clothes for her, otherwise she, the fourth-rank wife of a doctor, was also appointed by the emperor, and she would make people laugh if she was poorly dressed.
As soon as Zhang Xiu heard this, she immediately agreed. In this girl's heart, it didn't matter what kind of grievance she suffered. Being laughed at would be a discredit for her man, which she was determined not to do.
Halfway through the journey, Zhang Xiu understood why he, a man, would lay such a thick cushion for himself.
Sitting in a sedan chair for a long time is also very uncomfortable!
After that, Zhang Xiu took out the sedan chair and rode a horse for an hour or two every day, and then sat in the sedan chair again, and she didn't feel uncomfortable anymore after alternating like this.
Xiao Qi sometimes wonders, is Zhang Qian an iron ingot?
After sitting in the sedan chair for so long, the things he paved in the sedan chair were far worse than the ones he made for Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Qian still arrived at the inn every day, and there was no awkwardness at all when he got out of the sedan, and he was still talking and laughing.
Because of the hot weather, Xiao Qi specially brought dozens of carts and asked these soldiers to put heavy leather weapons on the carts when they were on the road.
He marched with only swords and other light weapons until he was still sixty miles away from the capital. Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Qi discussed with Zhang Qian to rest for one night and let the soldiers dress up before entering the capital the next day.
Although Zhang Qian wanted to hurry to the city to hand over the order, but after hearing Xiao Qi's advice to let the army take a good rest, when we entered Beijing, it seemed that our Song soldiers were full of energy.
Zhang Qian thinks it makes sense, the Song Dynasty has always been defeated in the past few decades, and the common people have been waiting for a long time for the Song Dynasty to send out a strong army capable of fighting.
Now that the Changsheng Battalion has won several battles in a row, it is best to let the people see a Song army that is full of energy.
So I agreed with Xiao Qi's idea, let these 2000 people camp sixty miles away from the capital to rest for one night, and sent people to Beijing first to tell the emperor why they came to Beijing one day late.
Who knew that the next day, as soon as the two thousand soldiers with bright helmets arrived at the gate of the capital, they heard the sound of horseshoes behind them, and soon a fast horse ran close.
Looking at the clothes, it turned out to be a scout from Xiao Qi's Changsheng Battalion!
This man ran behind Xiao Qi and his team, slowed down his horse and started shouting:
"I reported to General Xiao that [-] Jin troops were preparing to cross the Huaihe River from a hundred miles west of Chuzhou City five days ago, but were detected in advance by General Ma Shoucheng.
General Ma Shoucheng sent a quick horse to notify General Qin Tu, and General Lin Zheng, who stayed behind in Chuzhou City, and General Qin Tu arrived half a day later.
The two generals joined forces, and suddenly rushed out when the Jin army had just crossed half of the troops!
The [-] Jin troops who had just crossed the river were caught off guard and defeated. The two generals led their troops to kill more than [-] Jin troops, and less than [-] Jin troops fled back to the other side.
The rest all drowned in the Huai River. In this battle, [-] horses and countless supplies of food and grass were seized, and they were transported back to Chuzhou City by General Lin Zheng. "
The urgent battle report was sent to the emperor in the capital, so the scout from the Changsheng Battalion just slowed down and shouted to Xiao Qi to report the results of the battle, and didn't dare to stay. After shouting, he hurried into the capital .
After hearing this, Zhang Qian congratulated Xiao Qi in the sedan chair: "General Xiao really had a clever plan. He actually calculated that the Jin army would definitely send troops to attack in a sneak attack. General Xiao has done another great job this time!"
Xiao Qi urged the horse to come to Zhang Qian's sedan chair, shook his head and sighed to Zhang Qian: "My lord! Xiao would rather not have this merit!"
Zhang Qian felt that there was something in Xiao Qi's words, and asked Xiao Qi why he said that in a low voice.
Xiao Qi sighed: "Don't you see it, sir? It has only been seven or eight days since we came out from Chuzhou. Five days ago, the Jin army mobilized [-] troops and horses and arrived at the north bank of the Huai River. They planned to cross the Huai River south to attack , this is not the right time!”
After all, Zhang Qian was a former military supervisor, and after a little thought, he understood Xiao Qi's meaning, and was shocked immediately:
"The reason why General Xiao made such an arrangement before leaving, but did he expect this to happen?"
Xiao Qi didn't hide it either: "My lord is also an elder who is skilled in the military formation. I dare not hide it. Xiao did it to guard against this. Those arrangements were made, my lord! Da Song and Jin are always invincible against each other. , the reason is not outside, but inside!"
After hearing Xiao Qi's words, Zhang Qian slumped down in the sedan chair.
This is calculated according to the time, what Xiao Qi said is correct, it is estimated that the news that Xiao Qi was going to return to the capital under orders had already passed from the capital to the Jinren at the same time as he left the capital.
And because I was in a sedan chair, when the news reached the Jinren, I might have just arrived at the gate of Chuzhou City and hadn't entered the city yet.
That's why they mobilized [-] gold soldiers in such a short time, and arrived at the north bank of the Huai River five days ago, preparing to cross the river and attack Chuzhou City.
Suddenly Zhang Qian sat up straight, and said to a confidant next to him:
"Lord Xiao is not only a doctor of the fourth rank, but also the commander of the front deputy capital of the fourth rank hall personally appointed by the emperor!
You take General Xiao and his [-] elite soldiers to the Forbidden Army Garrison in the Imperial City, there must be no mistakes! "
Then he cupped his hands towards Xiao Qi in the sedan chair: "Master Xiao, this old man is in a hurry to return to the palace, he can't personally send Master Xiao to the residence, but I hope Haihan!"
Xiao Qi hurriedly returned the gift to Zhang Qian, "My lord is alive, Xiao wakes up!"
It took more than six hours to write these 2000 words. The rookie author really admires those great writers who write well in history. The rookie spent more than four hours just looking up the information. The five-body projection.
