In the inner courtyard of the Duke of Qing's mansion, in a remote and quiet courtyard, Qing Huai's mother, Qing Zhong, was sitting in front of the window sewing clothes, working very seriously on each stitch.
But as I sewed, a few tears dripped onto my clothes.
"Madam, why are you crying again?"
A maid in her thirties quickly picked up a handkerchief and helped Mrs. Qing Zhong wipe her tears: "Don't worry, Mr. Houji has his own destiny, and everything will be fine."
Ever since she received the news that Qing Huai was seriously injured, Qing Zhong always cried and her eyes were as swollen as walnuts.
"Chun'e, please go to the concierge again and ask if Huai'er has returned with a message for me."
"Yes, I'll go there later."
The maid smiled bitterly and nodded.
She has been to the concierge six times today.
"Going right now."
Mrs. Qingzhong was not willing to wait any longer.
"Okay, then don't cry. If you cry again, your eyes will break."
The maid stood up helplessly.
As a result, not long after leaving, he rushed back.
Before the people arrived, the voice arrived first:
"Madam, Madam, there is news from the Marquis!"
"real?"
Mrs. Qingzhong rushed out of the house: "Where's the letter? Give it to me quickly."
"It's not a letter, but a soldier from the Tielin Army came back to deliver a military report. He is currently waiting for his wife in Ting Yuxuan."
The maid gasped and said.
Qingzhong is the concubine of Duke Qing, so she is not allowed to see other men.
Now that the Duke of Qing is speaking, he naturally doesn't have to pay so much attention to it.
However, there were other female relatives in the backyard of the Duke's residence. Even if the Duke of Qing issued a message, the flag bearer could not go to the backyard, so the housekeeper arranged for him to stay in Tingyuxuan where the relatives received their natal family.
When Mrs. Qingzhong heard this, she stopped caring about her manners and ran out.
He didn't stop until he reached the door of Tingyuxuan.
"I have met Madam in my humble position!"
This was the biological mother of the Marquis. The flag bearer quickly knelt down on one knee and made a big salute.
"Get up quickly," Qingzhong asked anxiously, "Has your Lord Marquis brought me a letter?"
"I'm sorry, madam. No, I haven't seen the Marquis since he was injured. The party members called the next day..."
"What, the party members are calling?"
Mrs. Qingzhong's face suddenly turned pale, she staggered a few times, and might have fallen to the ground if the maid who came later hadn't supported her.
She was very afraid that the flag bearer would bring bad news...
After hesitating for a long time, he plucked up the courage to ask: "How is Huai'er...?"
"Madam, don't worry. On the day before the Dangxiang people came to attack, Mr. Jin said that the battlefield was unsafe and he sent someone to send the Marquis to Weizhou City."
The flag bearer said: "Although I didn't see the Marquis, before returning to the capital, I went to Weizhou City to see General Fan and inquired about it. The Marquis' injury has been stabilized and there is no serious problem."
"That's good, that's good."
Mrs. Qingzhong patted her chest: "Mr. Jin did the right thing. Your marquises are all injured and unconscious. It is really not safe to stay on the front line. If the Dangxiang people come over... By the way, the Dangxiang people are already here... Tielin
Are the military losses heavy?"
"Not big, no one died."
At this point, the flag bearer's eyebrows flew up: "Our Tielin Army won the battle. As soon as the Dangxiang people entered Qingshui Valley, they were beaten to the ground by Mr. Jin."
"Did you win?"
Mrs. Qingzhong's face was full of surprise.
Tie Linjun was tricked by the eldest son of the He family this time, and was tied tightly to Qingshui Valley. It was extremely dangerous, not to mention Qinghuai was injured and fell into a coma.
In her opinion, once the Dangxiang people come, the Tielin Army will definitely be doomed, and the flag bearer will return to Bianjing to ask for help.
But the other party told him that he won the battle?
How can this be?
"Did you really win?"
Qingzhong suspected that he had heard wrongly and asked again.
"Of course, this time we directly killed more than a thousand party members' cavalry and captured more than a thousand people. The captured horses almost had no place to circle and could only be placed on the hillside."
The lie was told so many times that the flag bearer himself began to believe it.
Obviously they only killed a few hundred people and captured a few hundred more, but now they directly say that they killed more than a thousand people and captured more than a thousand people.
A serious battle was turned into a romance by him, which made Qingzhong and the maid stunned for a moment.
By the way, Jin Feng was made into a hidden master. After being invited out of the mountain by Qinghuai, he turned the tide and killed everyone.
"When you see Mr. Jin in the future, you must thank him properly."
After hearing this, Mrs. Qingzhong sighed sincerely.
When she first heard about Mr. Jin, she thought he was a general of the Tielin Army or an aide of Qinghuai.
If this is the case, then it is Mr. Jin's duty to help Qinghuai.
But Jin Feng was not Qinghuai's subordinate, and his help was just out of morality. This was a huge favor.
Half an hour later, the flag bearer left the Qingguo Duke's Mansion happily.
When Qing Zhong learned that Qing Huai was fine, he was extremely happy. He used his private money to reward him with two hundred taels. Coupled with the rewards from the palace and Duke Qing, his worth almost exceeded a thousand taels.
This trip back to Bianjing was so worth it.
Just as I was about to find a banker to deposit my banknotes, a luxurious carriage came towards me.
The flag bearer glanced at the cloud-patterned flag with the word Zhao hanging on the carriage and knew it was the carriage belonging to Duke Zhao's family, so he quickly stood aside and gave way.
However, the carriage stopped beside him.
A young nobleman opened the curtain and asked, "Are you the Red Ling envoy from Qingshui Valley?"
"yes."
The flag bearer nodded.
"Come with me and you'll be rewarded."
The noble prince said lightly, and immediately a steward brought a horse.
"yes!"
The flag bearer was delighted and quickly agreed.
I got another reward.
…
On this day, the flag bearer entered six big houses, and his net worth directly exceeded a thousand taels.
For the noble family, the reward given to the Red Ling Envoy is not worth mentioning. They need detailed information more.
After sending off the flag-bearers, Duke Zhao found other red feather envoys and asked them one by one to verify whether the information was accurate.
The same goes for other nobles.
So not only did the flag bearer make a fortune, but so did several other red feather envoys, all of whom gained a lot.
By the way, Jin Feng's reputation was also completely established in Bianjing, and he officially entered the vision of major nobles.
Not only that, during the morning court meeting the next day, Chen Ji actually mentioned Jin Feng at the court meeting.
"My dear friends, I am very relieved that the Tielin Army has achieved a complete victory this time, and I am ready to reward you heavily. What do you think, dear friends?"
Chen Ji glanced down with interest.
When Qinghuai wanted to ask Jin Feng to take charge of the Tielin Army, Duke Qing firmly opposed it and repeatedly asked the emperor to change his order.
As a result, Tong Guan, the Duke of Chu, and his group were afraid that Tielin's army would escape disaster, so they desperately opposed it.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be self-defeating. Jin Feng not only escaped with his Tielin army, but also won a great victory.
Duke Qing felt relieved when he saw Tong Guan looking like he had eaten shit.
But now is not the time to laugh at Tong Guan, it is more important to reap the benefits.
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the Duke of Qing came out with the Chao Hut in his arms: "Your Majesty is wise, the Tielin Army fights bravely, and once the formation created by Jin Feng is popularized, our Dakang soldiers will no longer be afraid of cavalry. This will be the future for thousands of years."
