Pregnant concubine divorces her husband: Concubine Ai withdraws the divorce letter

Chapter 130

Others also echoed: "Yes, although this Chuli is the general's servant, but the emperor's life is at hand, we really can't delay. I don't know what they think, is one of our soldiers worth 1000 taels?"

He Lianyu rolled his eyes, and said in a calm voice: "Let's talk about the matter, don't say anything else."

The man smiled awkwardly and said, "General, we should give up on Chuli. If it wasn't urgent, we would go straight up the mountain and flatten that cottage. See if they are still arrogant? But it is really not appropriate to delay too long now. No, we're going to pay them a ransom, right away."

The man said everything.

He Lianyu took a deep breath, the expression on his face didn't change much, but he said lightly: "Don't talk about giving up, what you want to think about now is how to rescue, don't worry about the ransom it."

Those people looked at each other in blank dismay, they really didn't understand, how could the always calm general not know his priorities?It seems that he wants to save Chuli again, and he doesn't want to pay the ransom, which is really confusing.

"Why don't you speak? Didn't I say clearly?" He Lianyu looked at the crowd and said calmly.

"General, after a quarter of an hour, the letter also said that if the money is not delivered within a quarter of an hour, Chu Li's life will be gone." A person reminded.

He Lianyu twitched his lips and shook his head: "Don't worry about it, they won't tear up tickets at all."

"Why is the general so sure?" The subordinates were very curious.

"They just want to test our attitude. With such a small amount of 1000 taels, they can't afford to be hostile to an army. The other party must be a greedy guy and bold. If this is the case, if we hand over 1000 taels, they will How could you let Chuli go down the mountain so easily? I'm afraid it will be endless." He Lianyu analyzed.

"Or they don't want to cause too much trouble. If the lions really open their mouths, we will kill them for fear of angering us. That's why they want 1000 taels?" Someone raised an objection.

"I'm sure Chuli is still in their village. We paid the ransom, and they won't release him right away." He Lianyu sighed, with a sharp look in his eyes.

Everyone didn't know why General He was so sure. Seeing what he said, it seemed that Chu Li must be saved. It was hard to refute, and he couldn't think of an idea. For a while, the atmosphere cooled down.

"Then it's better for us to report to the officials. The bandits should have been dealt with at the local level, and our army shouldn't have interfered. In this way, Brother Chu won't die after our army is dispatched. Let the county magistrate come to save him. After being rescued, send a fast horse to let him catch up."

"This is a good idea. We won't delay the marching deadline, and we can have a chance to rescue Brother Chu. What do you think, the general?"

He Lianyu still shook his head: "Our business, we can do it without any trouble."

"Then... General, my subordinates feel that we should focus on the overall situation. Now that Chu Li has been arrested, since the general does not want to pay the ransom, he is afraid that he will fight against the thieves. It will take a day and a half to find out the situation in the cottage. If we encounter a place with a prominent mountain again, I am afraid that we will lose many brothers in order to save one. At that time, if it reaches the ears of those who care..."

"The general will be responsible for himself. The only plan for now, as you said, is to find out the situation in the cottage to be true."

Seeing that the general insisted on going his own way, everyone couldn't say anything more, they just nodded submissively, but they didn't care about it in their hearts. The general fought countless battles, and he also used the strategy of sacrificing a small group of soldiers for the sake of the overall situation on the battlefield.If he did this today, he might not have figured it out for a while.

The day passed quickly.

Chuli ate and drank, Li Xiaoyang came to see her again: "You can fall asleep after eating."

Chu Li grinned at himself and said: "Although the world is big, I don't have a home. I live everywhere. How can I be against myself? Besides, if you don't get the money, I might lose my head tomorrow, so don't take advantage of it." Eat more when you can?"

Sitting opposite her, Li Xiaoyang swayed his legs and said: "So you are also a poor person, but it's a pity that your general is not as good as you said, he doesn't seem to want to care about you anymore."

"Have they all left? It's justifiable to leave. The important thing is that the military order is like a mountain. If the schedule is delayed, it's not as simple as sacrificing me alone." Chu Li said very rationally.

"You still know how to think for others."

"Of course." Chu Li threw a melon seed into his mouth, then pushed the plate in front of her: "Come on, you eat too."

Li Xiaoyang glanced at her: "A man actually likes to eat melon seeds."

Chu Li was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "Who stipulates that men can't eat melon seeds? By the way, you little girl plan to be trapped in this cottage for the rest of your life? Then you plan to marry someone in the cottage?"

"Stop talking nonsense, who is going to marry?" Li Xiaoyang shouted at her.

"Okay, if you don't want to marry, I want to marry someone." Chu Li said with a smile.

Then Li Xiaoyang took a look at her and said, "You're not a good person with a glib tongue."

For three days in a row, Chu Li felt that he was getting fat from eating, but there was no movement from He Lianyu's side. According to Li Xiaoyang, he neither paid the ransom nor left.

Throughout the day, although the army was orderly, they did not make any movements, and they did not know what they were thinking.

When Chu Li heard that He Lianyu hadn't left, she felt confident. If he really left, she had to make other plans, such as how to instigate Li Xiaoyang, how to let her leave this broken village with her, although being the king of the mountain is a relatively difficult task. Exciting job, but this job has no future. As a modern person, how could Chuli not understand this?
It is a golden rule in modern times that people do not fight against officials, let alone in this ancient time when there were no human rights?

However, now He Lianyu obviously has not given up on himself, all he needs is to wait.What's more, judging from the current situation, this queen is simply a simple and straightforward little girl. Her words are just to scare people, and she will not kill herself. This is the most important thing.

Chu Li was bored waiting, and was locked in a small room again. Although his hands and feet were not tied, someone guarded the door.

She teased the little guys at the door to talk, but they were not as innocent as Li Xiaoyang, and ignored her at all. He ordered someone to give it away, almost two catties a day, and Chu Li was afraid that his teeth would be knocked out.

Finally, Li Xiaoyang came to see Chuli again after finishing the affairs on the mountain.

She herself doesn't know what's wrong, why she is interested in this "meat ticket", maybe because he speaks interestingly, he talks nonsense, as if he has seen the world, he is different from ordinary men, although he speaks glibly sometimes , but it sounds very sincere, not like lying to her.

So when she was free, she wanted to chat with him.

It was the same today, Qian Mo had a very temper, he was very annoyed by the reaction of the army below the mountain, he didn't expect that the general not only ignored his ransom, but also seemed to be preparing for something.

His opinion is to kill that Chuli guy and throw them out, so that they lose hope and give up.Then these people evacuated the cottage and hid first.

But Li Xiaoyang firmly disagreed with the murder plan, and she also did not agree to leave. In her eyes, that general was just putting on a show. How could he give up the marching plan for a small soldier?Those who serve as soldiers, who really want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, can make money as much as they can, high-ranking officials make big money, and small soldiers make small profits.

For this reason, Qian Mo sternly confronted Li Xiaoyang. This has never happened before. No matter what happened before, he always stood by his side and supported him unconditionally. No matter what he did right or wrong, he would not Say no words.

This is also where Li Xiaoyang especially trusts and trusts him.

In her heart, he is her relative, her brother, the brother who dotes on her.
