Regardless of gender, there is almost no distinction between species~ (I can’t help but complain, dear friends, have you ever seen a dog that likes to watch the fun? My dog loves to watch the fun more than I do!)
Xiao Yu turned to look at Ping An with great interest.
Ping An sighed melancholy, unable to look at the sky. Hey, the stars in the sky were quite bright, but his mood was not bright at all. "Don't ask, it's not a good thing."
Xiao Yu wanted to laugh so much that he raised his hand and hugged Ping An's shoulder, "How can this not be a good thing? Our family Ping An has just started to fall in love and knows how to chase girls. This is a great thing."
Ping An looked at him quietly, "You knew you were the girl you were chasing."
Xiao Yu almost tripped over the stone under his feet and knelt down directly.
"ha?"
Ping An laughed and said, "It's just the girl who is joking with the prince, but...hey, it's hard to explain, forget it, let's go to the garrison quickly, don't delay the business."
Xiao Yu glanced at Ping An, smiled, and said nothing.
What a big deal.
Isn't it just that I don't want to say it?
I don't want to say it's okay.
He will tell Wang Cong at dawn tomorrow, and then...all the brothers will know.
You have to find the joy of life by yourself.
The naive Ping An didn't know what bad things his prince was rumbling in his stomach, and he was still worried about tonight's trip.
There were originally two garrisons in the North.
One is the Xiao family army, located in the north of Qi.
One is the current Liaobei garrison.
Since Xiao Jiyuan's incident, the Xiao family's army has been torn apart. Now there is only one garrison in Liaobei in the entire Northern Territory, stationed at the throat of Kyoto and Northern Territory.
Originally, it was set up in this location to allow the garrison to better protect Kyoto.
But this time Xiao Yu rebelled, and the emperor ordered the garrison in northern Liaoning to capture Xiao Yu, but there was no movement from the garrison. This is worth pondering.
Xiao Yu previously had a confidant named Wang Tong, who was responsible for the procurement of military horses in the Ministry of War.
During the time when Su Luonong Winery was still in operation, Wang Tong came to northern Liaoning for business, but suddenly and secretly returned to Beijing. He brought back a shocking news to Xiao Yu. The garrison in northern Liaoning secretly purchased three pieces of wine from a horse farm under Ningguo Gongfu.
Thousands of strong war horses, not to mention that as a garrison, he did not report to the court and privately purchased the horses for what he wanted to do. The key to the problem is that these three thousand strong war horses entered the camp of the northern Liaoning garrison. Within seven days, the entire
All the horses in the garrison were infected with horse plague.
If you get horse plague, you need to treat it.
Treatment costs money.
The Liaobei garrison applied for this money to the court, but was rejected by the emperor on the grounds that the issue of garrisoning should be solved by oneself, because the court never levied grain taxes on the garrison's garrison, and all the grain went into the garrison's own barracks.
At that time, drug prices were still at a peak, and the troops stationed in northern Liaoning spent a total of tens of thousands of taels of silver to treat those war horses.
Then here comes the problem.
According to this situation, Guo Zhanhe, the commander-in-chief of the garrison, should hate Duke Ning Guo deeply, because after the fall of Zhenninghou Mansion, although Xiao Yu controlled most of the properties of Zhenninghou Mansion in the name of Gu Yao, some of them were still used by Duke Ning Guo.
Among them, all the medicine halls in Dongjiao County of Jieshi County and several neighboring counties were all annexed by Ning Guogong's people.
The person who extorted more than 10,000 taels of silver from Guo Zhanhe for medical treatment at that time should be Ning Guogong's medicine hall.
I bought Ning Guo Gong's horse, got plague, and used Ning Guo Gong's medicine to cure the disease.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like Ning Guogong has tricked him.
But last month, one of Ning Guogong's daughters married Guo Zhanhe's bastard.
From this point of view, it seems that Ning Guogong and Guo Zhanhe collaborated to obtain military pay.
But the strange thing is that the reason for Xiao Yu's rebellion this time was from Ning Guogong. The eldest princess led her people to escape to Jieshi County, but Guo Zhanhe did not round them up.
This point made Xiao Yu feel that something was wrong.
This was the biggest reason for him to go to see Guo Zhanhe.
There must be something wrong here.
If he could find the key, he might be able to borrow Guo Zhanhe's strength.
Wang Cong brought nine brothers, and ten of them were waiting neatly outside the county government office. As soon as Xiao Yu and Ping An came out, the group of people sped away in the night.
Liaobei garrison camp.
From a distance, you can see the camp’s torches illuminating the camp.
Wang Cong wondered, "Is this a night training in the middle of the night?"
Ping An glanced at Xiao Yu and smiled, "What kind of training is that at night? He's waiting for us."
Wang Cong was stunned, "Wait for us? Guo Zhanhe knew we had to come?"
Ping An galloped his horse and smiled, "How else can I say that you can't do the errands in my position? Your brain is very weak."
"Get out!" Wang Cong cursed with a smile.
In front of the gate of the military camp, still a mile away, a soldier rode over, "Is this the King of Nanhuai coming?"
The roaring voice drifted down the wind to Xiao Yu.
Ping An glanced at Xiao Yu and shouted back, "Exactly!"
As soon as Ping An finished his words, the soldier who came on horseback got off his horse and gave Xiao Yu a big salute, "Our general has already prepared wine and food. We are just waiting for the prince to arrive. Your Majesty, please!"
While he was talking, Xiao Yu's horse came up to him.
He got up, got on his horse, and walked side by side with Ping An. No one got off the horse again, and he rode straight to the military camp. Xiao Yu didn't get down until he stopped in front of the commander's tent door.
Guo Zhanhe was already waiting in front of the camp.
"I haven't seen the name of the King of Nanhuai for a long time, and I finally get to see him today! I will finally meet the prince!"
Guo Zhanhe's gift to Xiao Yu was not small.
Wang Cong and others who came with them didn't expect that they could enter the military camp at first. They thought they would be waiting outside.
The atmosphere in the military can no longer be restored.
Wang Cong secretly looked at Ping An and saw that Ping An had a calm face. He followed suit and also had a calm face.
The brain is a good thing, but it's not something you can control if you don't use it enough at critical times. If you don't understand something, think less about it.
Xiao Yu clasped his fists towards Guo Zhanhe, "General Guo offended me. I came here mainly to thank General Guo for taking care of my mother and my princess! Peace~"
In front of the camp, Xiao Yu still looked like he was not stingy.
He stood sideways and said "Ping'an". He Ping'an stepped forward, took out a small box made of red sandalwood, and opened the box directly in front of the surrounding soldiers. "Our prince has a little thought, and I hope General Guo will accept it."
"Your Majesty is the one who really defeats the general! The general has no merits and virtues, how dare you! Your Majesty, the night wind is cold, it's better to go inside first!" Guo Zhanhe turned sideways and brought Xiao Yu into the tent to welcome him.
This season, Kyoto has just started to get cold.
Charcoal burning has already begun here.
Compared to the cold outside, it was much warmer inside the tent.
