Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

Chapter 165: Fear of being close to home

Lü Bocheng dug out all the gold he had carefully saved, wrapped it up carefully, and prepared to take it back home. Read М

He selected a few personal soldiers and a team, and then galloped all the way to Guangning Prefecture. The subordinates who followed him were exhausted. I have never seen Shangguan so anxious. It's really strange.

Lü Bocheng was eager to go home and didn't dare to rest for a moment. There was only one month of vacation. One more day on the road meant one less day to go home and reunite with his wife.

The horse was whipped repeatedly and almost fell to the ground with foam at the mouth. It was really a difficult life for a horse to survive on the battlefield but die on the road.

When there were still five days to Guangning Prefecture, Lü Bocheng slowed down his horse and even ordered everyone to go to a small town to rest.

Gou Wa thought he was abnormal because he had been running for a long time and had eaten too much wind.

Who would have thought that Lü Bocheng was afraid of hometown.

It's been almost three years. I don't know if my wife still recognizes him. She should recognize him. He didn't get ugly. I wonder if that firewood girl has become whiter or fatter?

Lu Bocheng thought blankly. He ordered a few hot dishes in the inn and ate them with hot rice. He felt comforted. It tasted a bit like the taste of his hometown. It was delicious.

At night, he went back to the client and washed up before lying on the bed. He just tossed and turned the pancakes, thinking about every bit of getting along with Su Qingmei. I wonder if my wife would be surprised...

After thinking about it in a mess, he fell asleep.

The next morning, just when he was about to order everyone to set off, the messenger arrived unexpectedly.

He was asked to return to Chang'an as soon as possible because of the military order.

Lu Bocheng was so angry.

He touched the gold in the backpack on his body, puffed up his breath, and bit his back teeth again and again. He wanted to go back to his hometown first and then go to the capital, but the messenger was watching. That was a military order, what could he do? Want to lose his head?

He had no choice but to write a letter in a hurry, give the waiter some money and ask him to help mail it, then he rode his horse and rushed to the capital.

Gou Wa was three feet away from him, not daring to get close, for fear of being frozen by his cold air.

This military order was not early or late, it was almost at the doorstep, and there was a military order? If it had come earlier, they wouldn't have to suffer this wind and dirt.

Gou Wa couldn't help but complain in his heart, and couldn't help but feel sad for Lu Bocheng. He didn't know when he would see his wife again.

Lu Bocheng rode his horse all the way, and it took him ten days to finally return to Chang'an.

"Back?" Cui Sheng looked at his cold face and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

He patted his shoulder sympathetically: "Wang Hu was pushed to the throne by his subordinates in Dongdu, and the court advised Your Majesty to strike while the iron is hot. Your Majesty decided to send troops to Dongdu to completely eliminate Wang Hu to eliminate future troubles..."

Lu Bocheng let out a long breath.

"When we attacked Wang Hu, we wanted to pursue him, but His Majesty asked Wu Quanzhong to pursue him! He said he wanted to test his loyalty. What was the result? He picked up the baggage and precious goods thrown by the enemy along the way, which led to the disorganization of the army, allowing Wang Hu to reorganize his army and leave!"

Lü Bocheng was furious.

"He Wu Quanzhong also argued that you should not pursue a desperate enemy! In the end, Wu Quanzhong got rich! What did our soldiers get? Why should we use our army this time? Others can't be used! We don't need to be on guard against Tufan and Dangxiang?"

Lü Bocheng couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.

He kicked the long table in the tent hard.

Cui Sheng was also very upset.

Originally, victory was in sight. He, Mu Congke, and Wu Quanzhong's army, Wang Hu only had less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the three armies could completely annihilate him. Unexpectedly, he ran away again, and now he is back.

Then he heard Lü Bocheng say bitterly: "If we want to send troops to the Eastern Capital, which of Wuning, Xuanwu, and Tianxiong is not more convenient than us? Even if we transfer troops from Hezhong Prefecture, can Wu Quanzhong say no? Why not transfer troops from Hezhong Prefecture? Why do we have to travel a long distance?" Cui Sheng had always thought so in his heart. "Your Majesty said that he was afraid that Wu Quanzhong would become too powerful. Last time, the Shanxi and Hebei parts were assigned to Hezhong Prefecture. If he wins another battle, he is afraid that no one will restrain him." Now he thinks of checks and balances? Why did he get so excited that he assigned such a large Hezhong Prefecture to him? Cui Sheng saw that he was very angry, patted him again, and comforted him: "We are soldiers of the court, and your Majesty's people. We have to obey whatever your Majesty tells us to do." Lü Bocheng couldn't say anything else, so he fiercely lifted the curtain and went out with his sleeves. If he didn't go out, he couldn't help but curse. He was going to offend. He couldn't control himself. Back in his tent, Lü Bocheng looked gloomy. He touched the bag of gold again and again and buried it again.

The next day, he led his troops to Dongdu.

As for Su Qing'an, she sneaked out that night under the leadership of Xiu'er. Two women and a child avoided the surveillance of the thieves and sneaked into a cave halfway up the mountain.

After a while, Xiu'er's grandfather also sneaked in.

The two sides greeted each other. They went straight to the point.

"Two more people died today, whether they were from our village or those of you who were caught from outside, they were all inhumane things, and there will be many such things. When the time comes, it will be your turn and Xiu'er's."

Of course Su Qing'an knew, and it was because she knew that she was so anxious that she went crazy.

She said to him: "I heard from Xiu'er that you want me to help you carry a letter?"

Xiu'er's grandfather, Village Master Bai, nodded: "The people in our village are under their watch, so it's difficult to move. If one person is missing, the whole village will suffer. We have already lost many people. By then, the whole village will be wiped out. I have become a sinner. We have lived here for generations, hateful thieves..."

Su Qingyu interrupted him: "Who do you want to bring the message to?"

Xiu'er's grandfather straightened his expression and said: "There are several other villages near our village, not too far away. There are also many people in those villages. I want you to bring messages to a few village owners so that they can They will bring people to help. You just need to take the letter to the nearest village."

Su Qingyu shook her head.

Village leader Bai thought she disagreed and was disappointed.

Just listen to Su Qingyao say: "Let's not talk about whether I can successfully find the village. Even if I find it, they will definitely bring someone to help us?"

Village leader Bai nodded confidently: "Yes. We were the ancestors of the same village many years ago, and they were separated later. We usually visit each other occasionally, and greet each other when we see each other when hunting in the mountains."

"There are three to four hundred people in this group of thieves. How many people do you think they should bring to destroy this group of thieves?" Su Qingyu felt that Village Leader Bai might have a simple idea.

At the beginning, there were more than 200 people in their village, and they couldn't resist for even half an hour. Almost all the men were wiped out.

The other villages are probably about the same size as theirs. It doesn't matter if a man can pick out thirty or forty good hands. How can he fight against three to four hundred fierce bandits who have weapons and have seen blood?
