Qi Wei led the people who transported grain and grass into the city. +++ Catino Novel Network

The boats and carts were exhausted for several days, and the soldiers escorting the grain and grass were all very tired, and they were taken to rest. An Changqing and Yushi doctor were welcomed into the general’s mansion for a temporary stay.

The General’s Mansion was deserted and deserted, and there were no servants. Only the soldier who welcomed them in poured tea for them.

An Changqing thought that he would be able to see Xiao Zhige when he arrived in Yanzhou, but he didn’t expect to see even the shadow of the person, so he asked the soldier who was waiting on the side: “Your prince is not in the city?”

The soldier stood straight, without squinting: “The general has led his troops out of the city!”

Unexpectedly, An Changqing frowned and asked, “When will you be back?”

Soldier: “I don’t know.”

Seeing that the soldier couldn’t ask anything, An Changqing had to give up the questioning, thinking about asking the question when the deputy came.

After the two of them sat for a cup of tea, Qi Wei came over.

Because there was something wrong with the previous batch of grains, this time Qi Wei led a person to count the grains and grasses personally. After the total count, he found that the number of grains and grasses was only 20,000 shi, his face (color) was not very good.

One hundred thousand stones were requested on the zhezi, but only twenty thousand stones came. How long is 20,000 stones enough?

The previous excitement and joy turned into solemnity, Qi Wei looked at each other with several subordinates, and waved his hand for the last time: “I’ll ask what’s going on!”

Qi Wei was quite polite to the two adults who accompanied the army to **** grain and grass. He arched his hands and said, “The grain and grass are counted correctly. It’s just two adults. Isn’t this number correct? The Yanzhou war is tight, and 20,000 stones and grass are far from enough.”

Doctor Yu Shi glanced at An Changqing, and said, “These 20,000 stones, grains and grasses are donated by the princess. His Majesty Yanzhou handed them over, and the commissioner has been sent to verify Shi Jinzhong’s burning of grains and grasses and the army’s corruption of ink. If it is verified. No mistake, I will make up for the lack of food and grass.”

Qi Wei hadn’t figured out which princess the princess was, and when he said he wanted to check Shi Jinzhong’s affairs with Liangcao, his temper suddenly came: “The evidence is conclusive, what else needs to be checked? Wait for you to check it out before you allocate the food, Yanzhou The soldiers starved to death long ago!”

“Qi Wei!”

Behind him suddenly came a majestic male voice. Xiao Zhige heard that the grain and grass had arrived as soon as he returned, and he rushed over before he could unload the battle armor, but he didn’t want to hear the conversation between Yushi doctor Ji Anmin and Qi Wei at the door.

Stopping Qi Wei aloud, Xiao Zhige handed Wu Jin’s spear to the soldier at the door and strode in. No one has seen it, the voice has arrived: “Master Ji, if you want to check it, you can check it, but this grain can’t—”

Halfway through the conversation, when he saw the person sitting beside Ji Anmin, he suddenly became mute.

It took a long time to say with difficulty: “Why are you here?”

Since An Changqing heard his voice, her eyes have been staring at the door, but because of the presence of other people, it was not easy to lose her attitude, so she suppressed and did not get up.

The man has lost a lot of weight, and he has also lost a lot. Xu is just coming back from the battlefield, and his cheeks and armor are still stained with (dry gan) blood. There are large black and red marks on the trouser legs, and when he approaches, he can even smell a faint **** smell.

This is the first time An Changqing has seen him like this, scribbled but also sharp, armor bathed in blood, and his eyes are like blades.

It is the general who guards the border at Daye. He is also his general.

An Changqing blinked slowly, her throat (dry gan) astringent, and her voice was dumb: “I heard that Yanzhou is short of food and grass. Twenty thousand stones were slow, and Iron Tiger sent them later.”

Xiao Zhige immediately understood what he meant. He had anticipated the reaction of Emperor Anqing, otherwise he would not have sent someone to Liangzhou Chenzhou to borrow food. It’s just that he never expected that the princess who was supposed to be waiting for him back at Yejing Prince’s Mansion would raise grain and grass and send it to Yanzhou in person.

He looked at An Changqing carefully and found that his chin was sharp, and there were tired blue and black eyes, and only the black and white eyes were still clear and translucent. These days when I wanted to **** food and grass, I didn’t have a good rest.

After rolling his throat several times, Xiao Zhige finally found his own voice: “First… please let Master Ji go to rest. The question of Shi Jinzhong and the grain and grass will be discussed tomorrow.”

Qi Wei refused to accept it, and hesitated: “It can be used for food…”

“The grain is here, let the big guy have a full meal first,” Xiao Zhige said without looking back, “Qi Wei, you take someone to send Master Ji out.”

Qi Wei looked at the general who had suddenly become weird after entering, but didn’t dare to defy, so he could only ask Ji Anmin to take a rest first. Ji Anmin knew that the husband and wife must have something to say, and he didn’t leave it to be annoying, so he bowed a salute and went out with Qi Wei.

Everyone around was gone, Xiao Zhige took a step forward, subconsciously stretched out his hand to thrash him, and when he saw the blood on his hand, he realized that he had just stepped off the battlefield, his hands were covered with blood stains, and he reluctantly took it back. , Only looked at him deeply: “This way, you have worked hard.”

“Yeah.” An Changqing didn’t feel bitter before, but now she saw him, but she narrowed her mouth aggrievedly.

He didn’t feel aggrieved when he was seasick and could only eat rice soup. When he went ashore and walked on the mountain road, the bones that were bumped by the carriage almost disappeared, and he didn’t feel aggrieved either…

But now when I saw the person I was thinking of, grievances surged up. He squatted his mouth into Xiao Zhige’s arms, hugged him tightly with his arms, and complained to him with a choking voice, “I blame you for not letting me.” When I come to Yanzhou, I can’t even sleep well after listening to the news that I don’t know whether it’s true or false…”

Xiao Zhige hugged him back tightly, rubbed his chin on top of his head, closed his eyes, and sighed silently: “Well, I blame me, I will bring you wherever I go in the future.”

An Changqing sniffed in his arms, sneaking (touching Mo) to rub his tears (dry gan) on his sleeves, but instead was smoked by the **** smell from above, and complained dissatisfied: “You smell so bad.” .”

He just said so, but he held him tightly and didn’t let go.

There was some helplessness in Xiao Zhige’s eyes: “I haven’t had a (xi) shower in five or six days, and his body is very dirty.”

An Changqing grunted, hugged him tighter, and whispered, “I don’t think you are dirty.”

Xiao Zhige’s palm fell on his back, soothing him.

The two hugged tightly until the longing for the long separation was filled, and they reluctantly separated. An Changqing’s eyes are still flushing, and she is a little embarrassed to turn her face away: “Where do you live? I’ll go and clean up first, and then I will tell you about Yejing later.”

Thinking about Yejing, he felt a little mad, frowning and worrying: “I really can’t get enough food, there is only so much. I don’t know how long I can eat.”

Xiao Zhige had already guessed in his heart that he would never leave, so he was not in a hurry, and walked out with his shoulders: “Don’t talk about this first, I will take you back to the room and change your clothes. Have you eaten? I will ask someone to give it to you. You cook some porridge and bring it here.” He said that he was guilty: “There is a shortage of food in the city now, and there is nothing good in the general’s mansion…”

“I’m not hungry, I just have some porridge.”

The two spoke in a low voice and walked out affectionately side by side. When I walked to the door, I saw Qi Wei standing there with curiosity and excitement looking at him, and when he saw the two of them, he immediately greeted him with a flattering cry: “General, Princess.”

He hadn’t had time to figure out which princess the “Wang Hao” was before, and after he went out, he asked a lot before realizing that the white and beautiful little boy turned out to be their general’s daughter-in-law!

Although they all knew that the general had returned to Yejing to marry a male daughter-in-law, they had never seen it before. Only now did I know that this princess not only had a good-looking life, but also sent them food and grass from thousands of miles away.

That’s really a lifesaver!

So after the big-mouthed Lieutenant General Qi went around for a round of publicity, he was sent as a representative to send the army and the general’s wife to eat together-the grain and grass are here, and the generals who have tightened their belts and been hungry for a few days can finally eat. Satiated.

Of course, the key point is to see what the princess looks like.

Facing his subordinates, Xiao Zhige darkened his face immediately: “Didn’t you ask you to send Master Ji to settle down? Anything else?”

Qi Wei was amazed by the rapid change of his face.

Lieutenant Qi shrank his neck, bit his scalp and smiled: “The rare food and grass have arrived, and I won another game. The brothers asked the man to open a small stove to eat, and specially came to send the army and the princess…”

“Don’t go.” Xiao Zhige refused without hesitation and waved his hand: “You can eat. It’s just that Beidi has not retired and is not allowed to drink.”

Qi Wei bitterly, who knew that Xiao Zhige didn’t even look at him, and went to the backyard with An Changqing.

The General’s Mansion is an old house left over from the previous dynasty. It is quite large, but it has been lack of maintenance over the years, and one of the large houses has been abandoned. Just as the main courtyard house came out, Xiao Zhige occasionally came to rest.

There were no servants in the mansion, only a few guarding soldiers.

Originally, Xiao Zhige didn’t feel anything when he was alone. Anyway, he mostly lived in a barracks, eating and living with the soldiers, and now An Changqing came, he began to feel that this is also lacking, and that is also lacking.

It’s just that the war is urgent now, and it will be too late for a while.

Knowing that An Changqing loves Jie, Xiao Zhige personally moved the wooden bucket and brought hot water to pour it in. After checking the water temperature, he said, “There is no heater in the house. You should wash it quickly and be careful to catch the cold. etc.” After the war is over, I will buy what is missing. Now I will wrong you first.”

An Changqing didn’t think there was anything. Yanzhou was no better than Yejing, and he didn’t come here for extravagance. I just saw Xiao Zhige’s embarrassed appearance and frowned again: “Why don’t the prince wash?”

Xiao Zhige paused, and then said nonchalantly: “You are in the house, I will go outside to wash.”

But Changqing An clearly remembered that he only said that the hot water was still burning, and that he was going to wash outside, mostly with cold water. After hesitating for a moment, Changqing An said, “Will the prince come with me to wash it?”

Xiao Zhige staggered, turning his back to him and said: “My body is covered with blood, and this bucket of water is not enough for me to wash it again.”

After speaking, he strode out quickly. An Changqing shouted at him without stopping.

…

He quickly cleaned himself (dry gan) and put on (dry gan) clothes before An Changqing went to find Xiao Zhige.

After asking the soldiers in the courtyard, he knew that Xiao Zhige had gone to the bedroom. The bedroom was separated from the penthouse where the xi took a bath. Changqing An looked for it and saw that Xiao Zhige had changed his armor and was unbuttoning his shirt, with his back facing the door, not knowing what he was doing.

“The prince?” An Changqing said in a puzzled voice, but saw Xiao Zhige quickly put on his coat, and turned around as usual: “Is it all done soon? The porridge cooked in the kitchen has not yet been delivered. .”

“What’s wrong with your shoulder?” An Changqing saw the blood on his clothes sharply, wringed his eyebrows and strode over, unbuttoning his shirt to check.

Xiao Zhige pressed his wrist: “Don’t look, it’s just a small injury.”

“Let me see.” An Changqing looked at him stubbornly.

Xiao Zhige couldn’t help him, sighed, and let go of his hand after all: “It’s not a serious injury, don’t be afraid.”

An Changqing carefully untied his shirt, and saw a slap-length wound from the left shoulder to the (chest xiong) mouth. The skin of the wound (flesh) was turned open, and bones were deeply visible. If it grows longer, it will reach the heart.

“Why don’t you go to see the doctor?” An Changqing bit her cheek hard to restrain the soreness of her nose.

“I’ve seen it.” Xiao Zhige said: “It’s just skin (flesh) wounds. It looks scary. It doesn’t hurt the bones and meridians. Just apply the medicine every day.”

An Changqing stared at him: “Where is the medicine? You just prepared to apply the medicine?”

Xiao Zhige let out a low-confidence “um” and took out a bottle of medicine from the head of the bed (touching Mo): “I am preparing to apply the medicine, you are here.”

Taking the medicine bottle, An Changqing unbuttoned his clothes again, took a deep breath, and whispered, “Don’t move, I’ll give you medicine.”

Sprinkling the medicine powder on the opened wound, although Xiao Zhige didn’t say a word, the blue veins on the side of the neck collapsed. An Changqing tried to finish the medicine as quickly as possible, and then blew a few times on the wound. Only bandaged the wound.
