Chapter 703: Hope Qing’an

Chapter 704: Hope Qing’an

Sheng Xi looked at the Eagle Express in front of him and couldn't help but smile.She took off the sachet without opening it. Instead, she opened the bamboo tube and read the letter first.

The letter was written by Shen Anhe, and it was accompanied by a painting by Sheng Guangyuan, which was a small portrait of her.Sheng Xi quickly glanced at the little portrait, couldn't help but curling her lips again, and then looked at the letter written by Shen Anhe.

The content of the letter was not much. Shen Anhe condensed the current situation in the court and told Sheng Xi that he had received another message from the mysterious man.And that message was a reminder to him to pay attention to food and grass.The other party didn't say how or where to pay attention, because there was only the word "food and grass" on the paper.But just these two words have already provided him with a lot of information, because he is currently preparing food and grass, and soon, this batch of food and grass will be sent to the front line.

There must be many concerns in this, but Shen Anhe did not mention the dilemma he was facing now, and just sent the letter directly to Xueyuan.

Because in his opinion, the news of this letter was actually delayed, he guessed that the location where the letter was sent was most likely near the front line.There was no use keeping the letter, so he asked Xueyuan to bring it over to see if Wangcai could find the person who reported it through the letter.

Sheng Xi looked at the obviously wrinkled paper, and his eyes fell on the word "grain and grass". It was obvious that the other party was worried that he would be found to have deliberately distorted the font.

Is it here?Sheng Xi pursed her lips and frowned, suddenly finding that there seemed to be some black dust on the edge of the paper.Her eyebrows moved, and she stretched out her hand to twist it. She always felt that the ashes were pot ashes.

Pot ashes?Could it be that this man is a cook?The cook hiding among the Tatar soldiers?

She couldn't figure it out for a while, so Sheng Xi simply called Wangcai and let him smell it carefully, remembering the smell of the paper, and then let him play with it.

While thinking about what Shen An and the letter said, she unconsciously picked up the small portrait again, and stopped abruptly when she looked back.Right next to the small statue, there was actually a line of very small words in a hand.

Sheng Xi took a closer look and found that it was Shen Anhe's notes, and the small words read - Hope Qing'an.

For a moment, Sheng Xi felt that his heart had been hit hard, but after a moment of sweetness, there was an indescribable guilt.

She still worried him.

In fact, she could completely evacuate from here, come here in peace, and then go back in peace, away from chaos and danger, and go back to be a worry-free bride to be married.

And she had indeed had this thought before.However, when she turned around, she saw that the soldiers she had treated were struggling, with red eyes, looking like they wanted to go to the battlefield again; she looked at the fearful and helpless people behind her, their stubborn and unwilling eyes; and then she looked at those Tatar soldiers. Screaming, arrogant and cruel in all kinds of ways without restraint, there is always an inexplicable agitation in my heart.

A kind of excitement that wants to protect them from behind, and wants to draw a knife on those Tatars.

She had never experienced this emotion in her previous life, perhaps because she had never really encountered a war in her short life.But she thought that even if a war really broke out at that time, she would not put herself in danger and charge into battle like a fool. Instead, she would hide in one place and watch the world in front of her gradually become chaotic.

She had a cold nature until she met her current relatives.

Sheng Xi gently touched the three small characters, as if he wanted to see the person who wrote them through the three characters.

A gust of cold wind blew suddenly, and the small statue made a soft "crash" sound. Sheng Xi finally pulled away from the painting, and the next moment she carefully put it away and put it into the space.Romance, romance, and romance can only be discussed in times of peace.

Sheng Xi spent an hour painting a bunch of paintings, and then asked someone to call the blacksmith and carpenter whom Wang Xiao had contacted in advance.There are not many blacksmiths, only five, and the remaining ten people are all carpenters.

Sheng Xi didn't waste any time and directly distributed the things he drew to everyone, letting them choose and claim the part they could make.

A carpenter was very curious and boldly asked Sheng Xi, "Madam, what is this?"

Sheng Xi didn't hide anything and said: "Fangzi crossbow."

"Ah!" The carpenter's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer the question.The movements of the others holding the paper also froze.

Sheng Xi comforted them with a smile: "Don't worry, you are temporarily requisitioned by us, and you have official documents, so you don't need to worry about those provisions. Furthermore, these crossbows are used to kill enemies. Everyone is here to protect our country, and there is no need to worry about it." Nothing to be taboo about.”

The Li State has regulations that only craftsmen with special approval from the government can make military equipment. If ordinary people are found, not only will the items be confiscated, but the person may also be imprisoned, let alone ordinary people.

Sheng Xi was concerned about this, so he asked Qian Zhenfu to write an approval document. It was just right to show it to everyone at this time.

Sure enough, the literate people were obviously relieved after seeing the batch of documents, while others, even if they were illiterate, still recognized the red seal.Seeing that the literate man was relieved again, they immediately also breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Sheng Xi continued: "Not only these, but there are also small crossbows that need your help." After a pause, she suddenly emphasized her tone and said solemnly, "These crossbows are related to the safety of the people of Yin County and to us. Can you defend a city with a few hundred people, so I hope you will work hard!"

"Don't worry, madam! We will definitely make these things as soon as possible!"

"Yes! Madam, don't worry! Even if we don't eat, drink or sleep, we still have to build things in the shortest time!"

Sheng Xi thanked her solemnly: "Thank you very much!"

Before five o'clock the next day, Zeng Zhe quietly left the city with his men.Wang Xiao and others also followed Sheng Xi's request and completed the task ahead of schedule and beyond the limit.When many people heard that they were recruiting people to resist the Tatar soldiers, they signed up one by one, regardless of gender.And I heard that the materials they needed were used to fight the Tatar soldiers, and some people immediately offered to give them to them for free.

Wang Xiao was also a man who had fought in the war before. This was the first time that he was enthusiastically surrounded by the people, and even gave him food, clothing and other things.For a moment, Wang Xiao was filled with emotion, feeling that Sheng Xi was indeed prescient.

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. When the whole city participates, this enthusiasm will make things twice the result with half the effort.

Qian Zhenfu, who was lying on the bed and listening to the guards reporting the situation outside, felt as if a breath was stuck in his chest for a while. After a long time, the breath finally subsided, followed by sighs one after another.

The guard thought that Qian Zhenfu was dissatisfied with Sheng Xi's behavior. He was about to explain it to him, but suddenly he heard Qian Zhenfu make a sigh: "I am worse than a woman!"
