A red triangular military flag fluttered in the wind, with a large Chinese character "Su" embroidered on it. (First. Hair)
Li Chengqian looked envious. He originally thought that the troops could travel under his own name, but Lin Yi's words completely scared him back.
"You think you die too slowly?" Lin Yi rolled his eyes at the Crown Prince who was always unreliable around him.
Li Chengqian obediently learned to keep a low profile with Lin Yi. Although he felt that Lin Yi's whole body was tightly attracting the attention of others, it was useless no matter how low-key he was.
A group of about 2,000 soldiers set off from Chang'an and headed for the newly conquered prairie.
Lin was also pulled out to ride a horse by the excited Li Chengqian, saying that he wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Su Dingfang watched Lin Yi twisting and turning on the horse with a smile on his face, as if he had a bug on his body. This guy always rides in a carriage wherever he goes. He is clearly a guy who enjoys himself and a man, so he still has to show off.
The spirit, how good it is to ride a horse, so majestic.
"General Su is in good spirits. What good things have happened recently?" Lin Yi rode on the horse and chatted with Su Dingfang. The hard saddle made his butt hurt. He had to find something to divert his attention.
"Haha, isn't it a good thing? Jing'er is here again." Su Dingfang said with dancing eyebrows. He was happy when he mentioned this.
"Ah? Another one? Which one is this?" Lin Yi was surprised that they had really been able to have children in the past few years.
This is because Su Dingfang is always away from home and rarely comes home. If he were at home every day, he would have to do it only once a year.
"Haha, it's the third one. Jing'er is very impressive. The first two gave birth to sons. Now I really want a daughter." Su Dingfang said with a smile.
"Are you looking forward to having a son and a daughter? Don't worry, it will happen sooner or later." Li Chengqian spoke next to him. His excitement had not passed yet.
"How is your lady's health?" Lin Yi asked.
"It's still the same. As you've seen, there's nothing you can do about it because you're born with a weak constitution." Su Dingfang still felt a little melancholy when he mentioned his first wife.
"Well, her body needs to be recuperated for a long time, so there is no need to rush." Lin Yidao said that the woman was affected in the womb, and the congenital disease is difficult to cure.
"Yeah, but it doesn't matter. She can't have children, so she will adopt Jing'er's son to him. That can be regarded as a legitimate son." Su Dingfang had already thought this way, because his wife had always regretted not giving him a son and a half.
, every time she sees the child, there is a kind of longing in her eyes.
"That's fine, it's your blood anyway." Li Chengqian answered again.
"General Su will help me design a route map when he is free. Let's see how we can build a better cement road. I have discussed it with my godfather. From now on, we will use land vehicles to patrol there." Lin Yi was not familiar with the situation in the grassland.
, so in terms of road design, we still need help.
"That's no problem. In this case, those soldiers will want to be on duty in the grassland and patrol the land on the grassland. How majestic!" It was very attractive, and even Su Dingfang wanted to stay here.
"Really? Really? I want it too." Li Chengqian has been thinking about it for a long time, but his father is not allowed to do it outside the palace, and he can only enjoy it in the palace occasionally.
"Okay, but you have to be responsible for the overall project. When you get there, you first examine which land is suitable for grazing and which areas are suitable for growing grain, and then distinguish them. Then arrange the Turkic civilians and design reasonable routes for our patrols.
The soldiers can take care of every blind spot to prevent the enemy from invading, um... and then design a reasonable town plan to serve as a distribution center for supplies." Lin Yi arranged work for Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian listened blankly, so he had to do so many things?
"Then...what are you going to do?"
"Me? I want to build a water tower, and then investigate what kind of livestock is suitable for raising and what kind of food is suitable for growing here. I also want to inspect the nearby tribes to see if our future neighbors are well-intentioned or malicious." Lin Yi also said.
I arranged my work myself.
Li Chengqian stopped talking. It seems that everyone has something to do! But Xiao Yi's business seems to be just running around and looking around. He doesn't need to build the water tower. Once it is built, he can just draw the magic circle on it. What's more, he also brought
With ten assistants, if those people practice quickly, then he won't need to draw the magic circle. This guy must be lazy!
But he couldn't refute, because his father said before he came out that he was going to exercise this time, and he had to listen to Lin Yi and perform well. If Lin Yi came back and said that he didn't do well, then he would
Punished!
After being depressed for a short while, Li Chengqian was conquered by this feeling of freedom again. He had been bored in Chang'an for a long time! It was still fun outside.
Nowadays, Li Chengqian likes everything he sees. Even the wild flowers on the roadside are more beautiful to him than the peonies in the palace.
Su Dingfang listened to their conversation and glanced at Lin Yi with his eyes. This child said so, but his natural character destined him not to be an idler. Watching, in the end, the work he assigned to Li Chengqian, he himself
You have to participate in at least half of it.
A group of people walked west leisurely.
Diandian squatted on Lin Yi's shoulder, holding the nuts specially sent by Li Zhi, and ate happily. He left his wife to take care of the two babies, and Lin Yi received the rest of the squirrels in the storage ring.
Bing'er, who was riding behind, was silent for a long time. Lin Yi was now engaged, and she was thinking about where she would go.
Thinking about it now, maybe the original decision was a little too impulsive, but Bing'er has never regretted it. Rather than marrying someone she doesn't like, it would be better not to marry for the rest of her life!
But there are still regrets. As a girl, how could she not want to have a husband who loves her and a cute and lively child?
Bing'er ignored the soldiers' glances at her intentionally or unintentionally. She was just thinking about the future seriously.
The procession did not move very fast, and every time it fell at night, it tried to stop in villages and towns to facilitate His Highness the Crown Prince's inspection of the people's sentiments.
On the night of the third day of the trip, Bing'er said hello to the soldiers and Lin Yi outside as usual, and ran to take a shower. Girls love to be clean, so there was nothing they could do about it.
As soon as she left, a tall figure appeared in the hut where Lin Yi was temporarily staying.
"Uncle Tong?" Lin Yi looked at the person who appeared in front of him with some surprise. It seemed that the last time he saw him was more than a year ago. This person always came to the house for anything.
"Well, I have something to ask you." The tall and strong man sat down directly.
Lin Yi nodded. He had expected it. He naturally sat opposite Tong Zhang and waited for his next words.
"I heard that you are engaged to Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Tong Zhang asked straight to the point.
"Yes, we just made the reservation not long ago." This person is really well-informed.
"Then how do you plan to arrange for my daughter?" Tong Zhang's voice was calm, but he clenched his fists.
Bing'er has been waiting for so many years. Now Lin Yi is engaged to the princess and can no longer take concubines. What should Bing'er do?
"Bing'er?" Lin Yi was startled. He didn't think about it because he and Bing'er knew in their hearts that they were just putting on a show back then, but now their parents have come to find them. What should he do? Lin Yi pondered.
Tong Zhang didn't say anything anymore, just waiting for his reply.
"Well, I respect Bing'er's opinion. Now that the engagement has been made, it will definitely not be cancelled. If Bing'er is willing, I will marry her back even if I fall out with my godfather." Lin Yi said firmly.
Regarding the promises he has made, no matter what the reason for them, he intends to implement them, even if many people object to them. This is his principle.
But I still have to ask Bing'er for details. If Bing'er doesn't want to, he has nothing to do. It was a lie in the first place and he can't force Bing'er to marry him.
Hearing Lin Yi say this, Tong Zhang relaxed a little. Facing the imperial power, it was very rare for Lin Yi to say this. When he came, he thought that this kid would take the opportunity to shirk.
As long as he is sincere and treats Bing'er well, I believe he will find a way to fulfill that promise. After all, this kid has a lot of evil ideas.
"Then it's settled. When you return to Beijing after completing this mission, you have to explain to the emperor that if you can't do it, I will take your head." After Tong Zhang finished speaking, he disappeared.
In his opinion, Bing'er was not a problem. From the moment he promised her to Lin Yi, she was destined to be a member of the Lin family.
Lin Yi froze on the spot, okay, this is a domineering and unreasonable father-in-law, but at least he should ask Binger if he is willing to marry. Really! What should he do now?
It seems that we need to talk to Bing'er, otherwise she will think that he used the marriage contract to tie her up. Then doesn't he become a villain?
Lin Yi waited depressedly in the room for Bing'er to come back.
"Xiaoyi, let's go light a bonfire and barbecue!" Li Chengqian's voice came in before he entered the door.
"You still have a fever? You've been burning for the past few days since you came out, and your mouth has blistered. You haven't had enough of it yet?" Lin Yi really admired Li Chengqian to death, how could he do it so energetically?
"Oh, I can't eat it in the palace."
"You can't have barbecue in the palace? You have to speak with your conscience, otherwise the palace chef will cry."
"Uh...it feels different." Really, why did Xiaoyi always object? It was so nice to eat by the campfire, it reminded him of the time in Zhangjiazhuang.
"It's up to you. Anyway, if you get angry after eating too much, you have to drink the decoction."
"That's it, do you have any sugar?" Li Chengqian hated drinking soup and medicine.
"You can do it yourself." Lin Yi rolled his eyes at him. He didn't know how to do it, so why did he always ask him for it?
"Oh, let's have barbecue first. Let me tell you, today General Su said he wanted to sing for us." Li Chengqian looked expectant.
Su Lie??Singing??
Oh my god, let him be spared. Is there any difference between Su Lie's song and wolf howling? Didn't Li Chengqian see the faces of the soldiers who heard the news?
When he hears it, he will definitely feel like he wants to die, and he will probably never want to hold any bonfire barbecue party again.
Thinking about it this way, maybe it's a good thing.
