Chapter 530: A Girl Who Doesn't Live Up to Herself
"Mr. Jiang, I came to the capital this time and made great achievements in quelling the chaos. Now I have to work hard all the way back. We are here to see you off." Liu Jingzhong said, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Ye Anjun, who was wearing a mask.
Jiang Ruozhong smiled and said, "I didn't expect Jiang's friendship with these two adults to be so deep."
Yang Hongtai had a baggage hanging on his body. He also smiled, cleared his throat and raised his voice. "The humidity in the south is not as humid as that in the capital city. Especially young people, you should pay special attention to lest you get used to it there.
,What’s wrong with me?”
After that, Yang Hongtai took off the baggage from his shoulders and took out a pair of knee pads.
"Hey, Mr. Yang, is this for me?" Jiang Ruozhong took the knee pads and a look of disgust suddenly appeared on his face, "Why are the stitches so dense? Female workers are not good at it."
Yang Hongtai rolled his eyes at Jiang Ruozhong and grabbed the kneepad. "You're so sentimental!"
Then, he coughed and waved to Xiao Wu who was next to Ye Anjun. Xiao Wu walked up to Yang Hongtai with a flattered face.
Yang Hongtai whispered a few words to Xiao Wu, who smiled awkwardly, took the knee pads and retreated behind Ye Anjun.
Jiang Ruozhong watched all this with a smile and no words at all, feeling completely unmoved.
The new emperor was able to restore the name of the Ye family army and sent a young unknown general to lead the troops to guard the pass. The two old guys from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment in front of him probably already knew it. It was kind of him to come to see him off.
Liu Jingzhong cleared his throat and looked in the direction of Ye Anjun. "It's a pity that no one in my house sews knee pads, but I brought someone here." After saying that, Liu Jingzhong turned around.
A middle-aged man came out, walked up to Jiang Ruozhong and Ye Anjun, who was wearing a mask, and bowed deeply.
"Chang Shengyong, the commander of the Ye Family Army's Huwei Camp, requested to join the army!"
"Captain Chang!" Captain Meng and Colonel Han from the Ye family army came out one after another. Their eyes turned red as they looked at their old comrades in front of them.
At first, Ye Ningyu asked shopkeeper Lin to search for old veterans of the Ye family army, and shopkeeper Lin found Chen, Han and Meng for Ye Ningyu.
As for Captain Chang, because Ye Yongchang had recommended him to the Ministry of War, Shopkeeper Lin had not ruined his future. Unexpectedly, now, he actually wants to return to the Ye Family Army.
"Master Liu, this..." Jiang Ruozhong was a little confused.
Liu Jingzhong smiled and said, "This Captain Chang was sent to our Ministry of War by General Zhenbei. He has been my military commander for many years. Originally, I was reluctant to let him go. However, he cried and complained in front of this minister several times,
You are talking about missing your comrade. A gentleman has the beauty of adulthood, so I just sent him here."
Jiang Ruozhong narrowed his eyes. "Oh? Who do you want to give it to?"
"Ahem, cough, cough." Liu Jingzhong coughed a few times, "It's not for you anyway."
Under the mask, Ye Anjun only felt that his nose was sore. He had stood here for so long without saying a word and could not speak. But he felt the love between Yang Hongtai and Liu Jingzhong.
Ye Anjun heard about this Captain Chang from Ye Ningyu. He was injured on the battlefield before and his legs and feet were not good. Later he went to the Ministry of War and was in charge of recruiting troops. Now the Ye family army is bound to expand its recruitment in the south.
We need a veteran assistant manager like Captain Chang who is familiar with the Ye Family Army. Liu Jingzhong obviously thought of this.
"Then Jiang, on behalf of Ye Jiajun, would like to thank the two ministers." Jiang Ruozhong's face became solemn and he bowed to Liu and Yang.
Ye Anjun also bowed deeply, but did not speak from the beginning to the end.
There are some things that they can know very well, but they cannot expose them.
"Let's go!" Jiang Ruozhong and Ye Anjun mounted their horses together, the army separated into a lane, and they walked to the front.
With the sound of the trumpet, the army marched out, and the dark crowd slowly left the city gate.
Liu and Yang looked side by side at the red flags and green dragon flags at the front, and both of them were silent for a while.
"I remember that when General Zhenbei expanded the Ye family's army, I, the Minister of War, also contributed a lot. Now that the Ye family's army is moving from north to south, I feel so bad!" Liu Jingzhong looked into the distance and sighed.
"Times have changed, Mr. Liu." Yang Hongtai smiled, "There are talented people from generation to generation, and we can't always stay in the past, right?"
"When did you think so openly?" Liu Jingzhong turned his head and looked at Yang Hongtai.
"Drive! Drive!" A woman in green clothes with a white gauze on her face drove past the city gate at a fast pace, and the horse's hooves kicked up a burst of dust.
When passing Liu and Yang, the woman glanced sideways.
Liu Jingzhong watched blankly as the woman on horseback walked away, and then patted Yang Hongtai on the shoulder. "Hey, there was a girl who just rode off towards the direction of the army."
Yang Hongtai sneered for a moment, "Sir Liu, no matter how old you are, if you still look at girls, you are not afraid that your wife will cause trouble for you."
"That's wrong." Liu Jingzhong narrowed his eyes, "Why does that girl look familiar to me..."
Seeing Liu Jingzhong unable to look away, Yang Hongtai felt even more amused.
"My lord, my lord!" A man who looked like a servant hurried out of the city and came to Yang Hongtai, reining in his horse and kneeling on the ground with a plop.
"Sir, the eldest lady left a letter and left the city immediately!" The servant took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Yang Hongtai.
Yang Hongtai's heart skipped a beat, and he opened the letter with trembling hands and read it.
Liu Jingzhong on the side squinted his eyes and tilted his head, and got a few words from the letter.
With a snap, Yang Hongtai slapped his thigh. "You are so disobedient. It makes me so angry!"
Liu Jingzhong raised his head, "I wonder why that girl looks so familiar... But Mr. Yang, don't you really like that boy? What's wrong with your girl in the past?"
"What's good!" Yang Hongtai said angrily, "It's okay if that kid stays in the capital city. That's the border. What's she doing with you?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, don't worry about this young man's affairs." Liu Jingzhong touched Yang Hongtai's shoulder.
"Bah! Love is not your daughter's!"
Liu Jingzhong clicked his tongue, "Oh, I see that girl Chu Xin is more promising than you. She dares to love, hate, commit, and even dare to escape from under your nose. Why didn't I realize that this girl is so capable before?
As for my ability, I should come to my son Peizhi's house as soon as possible to propose a marriage or something."
"Fuck you!" Yang Hongtai pushed Liu Jingzhong away and sternly ordered at the servant. "Chase! Bring back that unsatisfactory girl!"
After that, Yang Hongtai snatched the riding whip from the servant's hand and chased him in the direction of the army.
"Stop chasing..." Liu Jingzhong's voice sounded loudly behind Yang Hongtai.
In this world, people die every day, some leave, some sink repeatedly in the old world, and some run towards a new world.
For many people, this is a new beginning. But for some things, it’s time to end now.
That night, a fire broke out at Hemingxuan on Zhaoping Street. Fortunately, it closed early tonight, and no diners or waiters were injured.
