Marrying blindly and by mistake, the general’s misplaced wife

Chapter 102
Chu Nanning said that what she marked was only what she encountered and heard about, so there were far more bandits in Yanping County than just these few places.

It doesn't matter, it's time for the scouts he sent to send back the first batch of news.

He walked out of the military tent. At this time, except for the vigil team, all the soldiers resting on the spot were snoring loudly.

Xiaoxing stayed overnight and marched urgently. Once they arrived at the resting place, they would take the time to have a good rest.

Xia Chixiao walked around the camp and then went back to the military tent to sleep.

Early the next morning, the army continued to move forward.

After walking for half an hour, a horse on horseback came quickly towards us.

When the man on horseback was still more than ten meters away, he rolled off his saddle and dismounted, and made a military salute: "General, Scout Sun Youjia, come and return!"

"Say!"

The scout said: "We have found out that there are 37 bandits in Yanping County, with as many as nearly ten thousand people and as few as a few hundred. In addition to these 37, there are also less than a hundred insignificant bandits. The total number is no less than [-]. Twenty places!”

In Yanping County, which is not on the battlefield, there are more than 50 bandits. Then Yunhe and Wan'an have more places close to the northern battlefield?

Xia Chixiao asked: "Do you have any detailed information?"

The scout took out a piece of paper filled with densely written words from his arms and said: "Back to the general, all the news we have found is here. The bandits in the den cannot count them one by one, but all 37 places are here!"

He hesitated for a moment and then said: "It is said that there are still four places in Qingning Mansion in Yanping County. However, just half a year ago, a mysterious man appeared and destroyed them. My subordinates and others failed to find out who that person was! "

Xia Chixiao took it and said: "You continue to push northward, enter Yunhe County, and explore again."

"Yes!"

Mystery man?Independently destroy four bandit dens?
Xia Chixiao just heard it and didn't think much about it.There are many strange people and strangers in the rivers and lakes. Those bandits do many evil things, and it is not surprising that they are punished if they make people angry.

Qingningfu belongs to Yanping County.

I don’t know if that expert is still in Qingning Mansion.

Xia Chixiao combined the map and scout information to quickly formulate a battle plan.

Li Yanghou Mansion.

Qi gave a stack of silver notes to Xia Haicheng, the Marquis of Liyang.

Xia Haicheng took a look and said, "I'll take him to the palace in the afternoon!"

Mrs. Qi hesitated to speak, but said: "This is 10 taels. Why does Concubine Qing need so much this time?"

Xia Haicheng said displeasedly: "Your Majesty spends a lot of money in the palace, why do you care so much?"

Mrs. Qi thought to herself, am I the one who cares too much?Three days ago, I just gave 4 taels of silver to the eldest prince, and now it's another 10 taels. Even if Liyang Hou Mansion is a golden mountain, it will have to be emptied sooner or later.

But she couldn't say that she knew very well what Mr. Hou had been doing for so many years. For that goal, it was indeed worth spending more money.

She took the opportunity to say: "Master Marquis, Yu'er is already twenty, and she can become a prince."

Xia Haicheng frowned.

Qi said: "Master Hou, it's not that I prefer Yu'er. You want the Hou Mansion to be improved to a higher level, and I think so too. It's true that Chi Xiao is the eldest son, but he has already reached the second rank. This title is given to He is just the icing on the cake.”

She carefully looked at Xia Haicheng's face. She knew this, and Xia Haicheng also knew it without her having to say it.

Xia Haicheng wanted to introduce a son who would be a worthy minister.She was about to break Xia Haicheng's thoughts: "But it's different if you give us Yuxuan. Chixiao will serve in the military, but the emperor may not give him military power. There are only three thousand soldiers to suppress the bandits this time. It won't matter whether we win or lose." It’s hard to say. If he were defeated at the hands of bandits, would the emperor still reuse him?"

Xia Haicheng frowned again. This was what made him angry. Xia Chixiao could have refused to take this life. This was asking for trouble.But he didn't even tell his father.

The Qi family continued their efforts: "Yu'er is taking the road of civil servants. Although both civil and military officials are now equally important, civil servants are in the court and military officers are in the battlefield. With the changes in the court situation, civil servants are still the most important. With Yu'er's title, she can be better in the future. Go one step further. Isn’t it better to take a two-pronged approach than to go all-in?”

Xia Haicheng said coldly: "Yu'er is not even a civil servant!"

Mr. Qi hurriedly said: "Qiu Wei Yu'er will end up. With his talent, it is not difficult to win a title!"

She persuaded again: "I understand how much Lord Hou values ​​Chi Xiao. They are all children born to me, and I feel the same pain. I think so for the sake of the Hou family. Yuxuan is obedient and sensible. , there is nothing wrong with him, he is filial and polite, and he will discuss everything with the Marquis. Even if an uncontrollable son pushes him to a higher position, the Marquis thinks, what real benefit does this have to the Hou family? "

Xia Haicheng said solemnly: "I will consider it!"

This is also what he is worried about. When he enters the palace today, it seems that he will also talk to Concubine Qing about this matter!
On the third day, Chu Baikui, reluctant but helpless, personally led people to move Ding Anshu's dowry to the place designated by Chu Nanning.

Seeing this house, Chu Baikui felt bitter in his heart.He sent people to search for so long but still couldn't find where this smelly girl lived. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a nice yard.

Was it given to her by Taifu Ye?

The housekeeper Jiang Song came out and looked at the large boxes and small cages at the door. He was a little surprised and hurriedly went to inform Chu Nanning.

Chu Baikui waited for a while, watching Chu Nanning and several maids and women actually come out to count. He was angry and angry, but there was nothing he could do, and he had to show a loving smile on his face.

"Lan'er, can you go back to your home now?"

Chu Nanning asked Jiang Song to transport all these boxes and cages into the house, and then said with a half-smile: "Okay, but what is my identity?"

Chu Baikui said happily: "Of course she is my eldest daughter!"

He thought for a while and then said: "I just want Yun'er to hold a banquet and introduce you to all the guests. What do you think?"

Chu Nanning said obediently: "Okay!"

Chu Baikui was even more happy. He recognized this wild girl back with great fanfare, and he and Taifu Ye would be relatives from now on.With this kind of relationship, are you still worried that he will not have a prosperous official career?
Shi Yucheng, a bully who fears the strong, would never dare to show his face again.

It seemed that thinking about such a scene made him feel better, and he even looked at Chu Nanning kindly.

He arrived at the door without hesitation, and Chu Nanning even acted "rude" by not inviting him in for a cup of tea.

Chu Nanning asked: "When will the banquet be held?"

Chu Baikui said: "Three days, we have to make arrangements to send out invitations, and it will be three days later at the earliest!"

"Okay, I'll go back to my house on that day!"

Chu Baikui was a little reluctant. He had given so much, and this wild girl still wanted to take Qiao?But think about it, three days earlier and three days later makes no difference.

There's no need to make a fuss over this little thing.

He then smiled and said, "Okay, will we send someone to pick you up here then?"

Chu Nanning said: "Yeah!"

Chu Baikui explained: "Lan'er, why don't you move into the mansion in advance?" If Chu Nanning didn't show up that day, Anyuan Houfu would lose face and offend those distinguished guests, and he would not only be reduced to For a joke.
