Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 489 Meeting the Old Ministry

After walking south for three consecutive days, they finally arrived at the small town where the old Xue family was stationed.

This place is called Caiyi Town, famous for its weaving and silk reeling, but now the residents in the town have already fled north because of the southern rebels. Small town, no smell of fireworks.

Everyone rode their horses and walked on the street. Apart from the howling cold wind, there was only the sound of horseshoes echoing in their ears. There was not even a dog barking from far and near. It was bitingly cold.

"My lord," Cen Ju, who had been quiet all the way, suddenly rode side by side with Xue Lince, "The old Xue family is stationed outside Caiyi Town, you settle down first, I will go and notify them to come here."

The cold wind blew the broken hair on Xue Lince's forehead. Because he was still some distance away from the battlefield, he was not wearing any armor. He was still wearing a snow-white robe. When it blows, it is like a big hand brushing by, the hem of the clothes is fluttering, as if snow has fallen on the shoulders, and the whole body is full of cool and elegant atmosphere.

There were two long swords tied around his waist, one on the left and the other on the right. The black hilts just rightly added a bit of heroism and solemnity, supporting him like a green pine in the snow.

"That's fine," he looked around, and responded readily, "I'll let them settle in the teahouse for now, and you can just bring them to meet up in front later."

"Yes."

Cen Ju has always obeyed Xue Lince's words very much. After receiving the order, he first rode away from the trail and headed all the way to the outside of Caiyi Town.

Xue Lince took the remaining three people to pick the largest teahouse to rest. There was no one in the teahouse. The white banner with the name "teahouse" son moved in the wind, and was blown "swirly" by the wind. ring.

The four got off their horses one after the other, chose a brighter place to sit down, and within half a stick of incense, they heard a burst of extremely orderly footsteps coming from the door.

Everyone immediately realized that Cen Ju had brought someone back, so they all got up and went out to greet them. Sure enough, dozens of soldiers in armor came hurriedly not far away, and the one in the front was Cen Ju in blue. Presumably it was not possible to bring all [-] soldiers, so they only brought a few commanders.

Xue Lince and his party stood at the door, like several green bamboos standing against the wind.

"My lord," Cen Ju walked in the front, his face was flushed with excitement, and a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, "They are here!"

Before the words fell, these armored soldiers knelt down in front of Xue Lince one after another, and said in unison: "This subordinate has seen you!"

Xue Lince hurried forward, "There is no need to perform such a grand ceremony. You are all from my father's old department. In terms of seniority, you are still the elders. Besides, people in armor don't worship, so there is no need to bow down."

He helped the older one at the front, but the other person seemed to be fixed on the ground, and he couldn't get up anyway, and his face was already covered with tears when he raised it.

Xue Lince was taken aback when he saw this, and was at a loss for a moment.

"My lord!" The other party cried with tears, the weather-beaten cheeks were intertwined with ravines, full of deep wrinkles like old tree bark, and mixed with a lot of wind and sand, as the tears rushed, they flowed out traces.

"My lord! You are finally back!" He grabbed Xue Lince's arm that was supporting him, his voice trembling, "I think back then, my subordinates and others swore to follow Lord Hou for more than ten years. There are more than 100 members of the Xue family..."

He burst into tears halfway through speaking, his words aroused the sadness of the others, and the soldiers kneeling on the ground all burst into tears.

The throbbing pain in Xue Lince's heart, although he crossed halfway, but this body still remembers the heart-pounding pain, hearing the crying of the soldiers beside his ears, his eyes were also stained with tears .

"Everyone has worked hard." He is now the general of Zhenbei, so he quickly restrained his emotions and helped the kneeling soldiers up one by one. "Now the court needs the Xue family, and I ask you to help the Xue family to calm down. Rebellion, return my great rivers and mountains."

The soldiers stopped crying after hearing the words, and wiped away their tears indiscriminately. After wiping away the tears, they became full of morale.

Seeing this, Tang Luoyu was also relieved. She was worried that these [-] soldiers would only see Xue Lince as a mere fifth-rank civil servant and would not obey orders. Fortunately, the great achievements made by the soldiers led by You Nanhou during his lifetime convinced the soldiers, and Xue Lince was also quite courageous. , can easily bring the leaders under his command in a few words.

It was necessary to continue going south quickly, and the group of people only took a short rest in the small town before continuing on their way.

Xue Lince led [-] soldiers and drove all the way to the south from the small road. The sky was gray with drizzle from beginning to end, and the sky was low, like a stubborn stone on top of everyone's heads, so heavy that they couldn't breathe The air is getting wet, the more south you go, the more humid the ground is, almost like a vast swamp.

The [-] soldiers were already accustomed to the miasma and rainy weather in the south, and their speed of action did not slow down. Chai Jin and Ke Ran also traveled the rivers and lakes all year round, so it didn't affect them, but Xue Tang and his wife suffered.

The two were born and bred in Beijing. After getting used to the dry and clear weather in the north, they looked like sponges thrown into the water. Not long after they were full of water, they developed symptoms of eczema, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, and skin swelling.

But the two of them had stubborn tempers. In order not to delay the military plane, they were unwilling to stop and rest. Coupled with the increasing pressure, Xue Lince soon suffered from headaches and brain fever again.

After three days of walking, Xue Lince finally got a moment of respite. Xue Lince led all the soldiers to station at the edge of a forest.

It was still raining in the sky, and the raindrops were weaving obliquely like embroidery needles. Tang Luoyu brought green plum juice to find Xue Lince, only to see that he had a wet kerchief on his head, his face was already flushed with burns, and he was still busy studying the map at his desk .

Hearing the movement, he raised his head slightly, and when he saw that it was his wife, a smile appeared on his face.

"Why is it so late and you haven't rested yet?"

Tang Luoyu naturally came in and sat beside him, and put the green plum juice on the table, "You are not acclimatized, you have a headache, how can I ignore it?"

As she spoke, she lifted the lid of the fine porcelain pot. Although the porcelain pot was bought at a street vendor halfway, it was exquisitely made, as white and clean as a girl's face, smooth and delicate as if cooked. After poking the eggs.

Greengage juice presents a light green color, like a pool of spring water that has just melted ice and snow in the white porcelain, and there are a few green plums floating in it, which is really beautiful. As soon as the lid is opened, the sweet and sour smell of plums fills the entire camp. Let the mouth salivate.
