"Xiao Yi, don't just eat one dish! Don't be so formal. You will be my family from now on."
There was no smell of fireworks in such a big house, and it felt uncomfortable to stay there. Xiao Yi was so dull, he picked up a few pieces of meat and put them in his bowl and said.
"Well, sir, you are so kind to me."
Xiao, who was eating, had tears in his eyes. He looked at the pieces of meat Hu Yunqing had put for him in the bowl, lowered his head and choked with sobs.
"Okay, um."
Looking at Xiao Yide's appearance, I know that he is also a person with a story. He patted his shoulder and started eating.
After eating, Hu Yunqing went to the roof to look at the stars.
The cowherd boy was already sleepy and found a room for him to sleep in. Xiao Yi stood underneath to protect Hu Yunqing's safety.
After coming down an hour later, he saw Xiao Yi still waiting below, nodded to him and returned to the house to sleep.
Xiao Yi then returned to his room. In order to be closer, he only lived next door to Hu Yunqing, so he could appear immediately if there was any movement.
Early the next morning, Hu Yunqing got up very early. When he came out, he saw Xiao Yi already practicing in the yard.
"You got up very early! Why don't you take a nap?"
Hu Yunqing didn't expect to get up earlier than him, and asked him in surprise.
"I'm used to it. If I were a lazy person, I wouldn't be sent to accompany adults."
Xiao Yi also quickly stopped and said to Hu Yunqing with a smile.
After the contact last night, Xiao Yi also understood that Hu Yunqing was an approachable adult who was so kind to him, but he couldn't face it with a straight face or a smile.
"Well, I will send the one hundred taels of silver back to the cowherd boy's grandfather later, and tell his grandfather what I said last night."
After Hu Yunqing finished washing, he took out one hundred taels of silver and threw it to Xiao Yi to explain.
"I'd better leave this little thing to the people below. My mission is to protect your safety."
After one hundred taels of silver, Xiao Yi didn't understand. He could just let the people below take care of this small matter. He was also a member of a hundred households.
"Of course I don't want you to go alone. I'll tell you Jinyiwei people, so that those who are unruly will know that you are there to protect them, and you don't want anyone to disturb their lives."
"Okay, I understand. Where are you going today? I'll let someone prepare."
After listening to Hu Yunqing's words, he understood what she meant. Looking at Hu Yunqing's appearance, she was dressed and ready to go out. Xiao Yi wanted to see someone off, and Hu Yunqing also needed someone to protect her.
"I'm going to see General Xu to talk about the expedition. Just find two people for me."
Hu Yunqing himself has some skills, and besides, this is the capital, and no one touches him at all. It would be awkward to have so many people follow him.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
An hour later, Hu Yunqing walked out of the mansion and saw a team of more than ten people in uniforms standing at the door.
"Xiao Yi, why are you making such a big show? This is just the way the emperor travels, right?"
Seeing that there were too many people, Hu Yunqing was a little uncomfortable and looked at Xiao Yi aside and asked.
"Sir, it's not much at all. I still picked some experts."
Regarding Hu Yunqing's words, Xiao Yi said to him with a smile.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Hu Yunqing looked at such a large group of people, said nothing, and walked forward alone.
The Jinyi Guards behind him formed two rows and followed Hu Yunqing.
All the Shenji Battalion gathered outside the west city gate.
Begin to reorganize the army and mobilize food, grass and equipment.
"Hurry up, please be careful. The things inside are no joke. If they fall to the ground, we will all be blown up!"
Wang Ke stood at the gate of the city, watching groups of soldiers moving boxes out of the city. He looked at each one of them clumsily, and gave everyone some anxious instructions.
"General, everything is being prepared and will be in place by night."
Wang Ke came to Xu Wei who was sitting at the city gate and reported.
"Oh, I see"
Xu Wei lay lazily on the chair, with a helmet covering his head, and simply responded. Leave these matters to Wang Ke, so he doesn't have to worry.
"General, why do you have to bring Mr. Hu with you this time? We have to fight and protect him. If something happens, we have to bear the responsibility. What the hell!"
Wang Ke felt a lot of resentment towards Chongzhen's arrangements. Seeing that there was no one around, he said to Xu Wei.
"Shut up, with Master Hu this time, our chance of success is 100%."
After listening to Wang Ke's words, Xu Wei interrupted directly and said a little unhappily.
Judging from what happened during this period, Hu Yunqing is definitely not in vain, and his admiration for Hu Yunqing has deepened.
"General Xu, you are really leisurely!"
"Um?"
Xu Wei heard a familiar voice and looked inside the city gate to see who was speaking.
"What? I saw him yesterday."
Seeing the other party's surprise, Hu Yunqing walked over with a smile and asked.
"Master Hu, sit down quickly, sit down quickly."
Only then did Xu Wei see clearly who was walking over. He quickly stood up from the chair, wiped the chair and said.
"No need, how are the army preparations going?"
Hu Yunqing smiled and waved his hand, looked at the army transporting grain and grass outside the city, turned to Xu Wei and asked.
"Sir, we can finish the preparations tonight and won't delay our departure tomorrow morning!"
Wang Ke, who was beside him, stood up and answered Hu Yunqing's words.
Bang!
While several people were talking, a box suddenly fell from the carriage that was transporting things next to it. The box fell to the ground and fell apart, and a round thing rolled out of it.
"Flash!"
Seeing the shells falling out, the soldiers on the carriage shouted to the people around them to run away.
"Don't be embarrassed!"
Xu Wei looked at the soldiers on the carriage and yelled at them angrily.
The surrounding soldiers and imperial guards were afraid to dodge.
Only Hu Yunqing, Wang Ke and Xu Wei stood calmly.
Bang bang bang!
"I haven't told you before! Let you be careful and careful again! After transporting the ammunition, go and get the thirty military whips yourself!"
Seeing that Xu Wei was angry, Wang Ke came out with a whip, whipped the soldier on the carriage three times, and said to him angrily.
The soldiers on the carriage endured the pain on their bodies without shouting. After the beating, they drove the carriage out of the city gate.
"Master Hu, I made you laugh."
Xu Wei looked at Hu Yunqing embarrassedly and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect you even brought cannons."
Hu Yunqing also knew that the one just now was a cannonball, a powerful weapon in ancient times, but he didn't expect that all these things were brought out. It looks like it is inevitable.
