Rebirth of the concubine's scheming

Chapter 103

As the warm spring passed, the weather in Lin'an became hotter and hotter, and the battle at Yangguan became more and more fierce. The city, without rest for days and nights, was on guard against their raids again and again.

In the barracks, Lu Chongyan was resting on the bed because he was beaten by a military stick for violating military regulations.

The conditions in the military camp are already tough, not to mention that he started from a low level. He thought that his father would bring him with him, but he didn't expect to throw him in the soldier camp. He had to be trained every day, and the training passed by a stage The soldiers will go directly to the second barracks to prepare for the battlefield.

The sword has no eyes Lu Chongyan didn't want to lose his life in this place, but General Lu was so cruel that he never came to see him no matter what injuries he suffered during training.

The curtain was opened, and a soldier came in with a plate, put the plate next to him, and patted him on the shoulder, "How is it, how does it feel to be hit by a military stick?"

Lu Chongyan took the steamed buns on the plate, found it hard to swallow the first mouthful, and spat it out, the soldier was not angry, picked up the steamed buns he threw away, wiped them and ate them himself, "A man like you I have seen a lot of recruits, and the first few days they came in like you, you will know how precious the food is after you have been starved for a while, and you can rest anyway, and you won’t die if you starve for a day.” Before Lu Chongyan could say anything, the soldier took out the plate again.

Lu Chongyan stared at the spit out steamed bun on the ground, clenched his hands into fists and smashed it hard on the pillow. How much grievance was in his heart at this moment, why should he be a son if he is the same as his elder brother? Starting from the lowest level, the father didn't care about his life at all. He just blamed himself for poisoning his eldest brother. In his eyes, the eldest son was the most important thing. He was a playboy all his life.

What Lu Chongyan didn't know was that when his father brought his eldest brother to the barracks, he also worked his way up step by step. No one came to the position of a high-ranking officer without any experience. It wasn't just himself who led the soldiers out to kill him. There were also a group of soldiers who followed him. At this moment, he felt too much resentment in his heart, resenting his father's partiality.

Su Qianmo entered the barracks outside the tent, and the person who brought food to Lu Chongyan walked into his tent. Su Qianmo put down his sword and saw a letter on the table, a gentleness flashed across his sharp face, and then He asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?"

"Master Lu refused to eat, so I took it back." Xiaosi reported truthfully, and Su Qian smiled sarcastically, "If he refuses to eat, he will be hungry, so hungry that he begs to eat."

He was not responsible for the training of recruits in Yangguan, but in order to boost the morale of the army, Mu Chaobi let the new deputy capital manage it for a period of time. Su Qianmo's demands on himself were as high as those of these recruits. No matter how high it is, this is not a peaceful day. They can be more relaxed. After training, they will fight the Beitu people on behalf of their injured brothers. None of them can be taken lightly.

As for his fiancée and second brother-in-law, Su Qianmo naturally took extra care of her. General Lu had his words beforehand, and he didn't treat them differently, so don't blame him for being strict.

"Yes, my lord." Xiaosi got the order to go down, Su Qianmo took off his armor, and after washing his hands, he began to read Yin Huan's reply letter. The letter was about the small things that happened in Lin'an City. After birth, Yin Huan would write a few sentences about the little guy in it, and Su Qianmo could only relax when reading her letter.

Lin'an is very hot again this year. The second sister who got married last year brought good news. There is good news. The second aunt packed up her things and went to Lucheng to see her. The girl from the Cheng family is married. It is also worth mentioning that how much should the emperor do for him? A daughter has chosen a husband-in-law, this year's autumn banquet must be very lively.

What Yin Huan said were all happy things. Su Qianmo knew her temperament, and always reported good things but not bad things. Naturally, someone would tell him her situation regularly. Su Qianmo put the letter away carefully, and the voice of a soldier came from outside the door , "Master Su, Master Mu, please go over there."

Putting on his clothes and picking up his weapon, Su Qianmo went out of the tent again. Inside Mu Chaobu's tent, General Lu and him frowned as they looked at the shrunk Beitu map, and pointed to the three places where the red flags had been set up. "The last time they raided from these places, the city in the northeast was almost overwhelmed."

"Beyond the Northeast is a forest. I once sent a small team into it." General Lu didn't say any more, and they wouldn't be passive if they got something. The team never came out after entering.

Su Qianmo looked familiar, "I'll go out for a while." Back in his tent, Su Qianmo found the book Yin Huan gave that day, hurried back there and flipped through it in front of them.

"This is it!" Su Qianmo pointed to one of the pages and said, Mu Chaobi turned his head to take a look, then picked it up and turned over two pages, and said to General Lu excitedly, "Looks like we have a solution! "

"Master Su, where did you come from?" Mu Chaobi re-added some on the map according to the book, and the original mountains and forests in the Northeast Chu are no longer mysterious. Tu has a general understanding of how to sneak attack from the forest.

"Yin Huan found it in my uncle's study, and asked me to bring it." Su Qianmo wanted to say seriously, but Mu Chaobi laughed a few times and patted him on the shoulder, "Good boy, this can make you feel so much better." You take it here."

The embarrassment on Su Qianmo's face flashed away, and they quickly got into the discussion. When it got dark, they formulated a new plan, called all the officers and held a meeting, and at midnight, Yangguan became busy again. .

Lu Chongyan was very hungry, even if he just lay down and drank water, his stomach felt very uncomfortable, but the person who delivered the food did not come for a long time. He heard the sound of soldiers running back and forth outside at night, and opened his mouth to yell a few times, No one responded to him.

There was a lot of noise outside, he struggled to get out of bed, found a stick from the side as a crutch, and leaned on it to the door. Soldiers in the brightly lit barracks ran past the tents, as if they were going to gather in front. .

Xiao Si went back to the camp to get dinner for the adults, and saw Lu Chongyan standing there, "Why don't you rest in it, there are regulations in the camp, the ten army sticks can only lie down for five days at most, you will suffer if you don't rest well .”

"I'm hungry." Lu Chongyan said with a stern face, and Xiao Si looked at him with a half-smile, and took out a plate of steamed buns from the bottom of the food box, "Hey, take it and eat it."

Lu Chongyan caught a glimpse of the plate on the food box, which seemed to contain chicken legs, "Why didn't you give this to me?"

"This is for the adults." Xiaosi has been in Yangguan for so long, and he has never seen such a recruit. No wonder the adults are so strict with him. It would be a crime if he killed others on the battlefield.

Lu Chongyan closed his mouth this time, and took the steamed buns into the room. It was the same as the one he brought earlier in the morning. He picked up one and took a hard bite. He frowned and was about to spit it out when he suddenly swallowed the steamed buns fiercely. I ate it, and finally drank a glass of water and coughed there.

The remaining steamed buns in his hand were crushed into crumbs and fell to the ground. Lu Chongyan secretly swore that one day, I will impress you...

This year's autumn banquet was indeed as popular as Yin Huan expected, just like when she first came to participate, the girl who was a few years younger than her was old enough to be married, and she tried her best to get the queen The empress dowager's praise, and the hope that he can be favored by the emperor, let the princess be the lord, and thus make a fortune.

In the end, Yin Huan and his sister-in-law were arranged among the newlyweds Cheng Bier and Cheng Bier. Cheng Bier hadn't seen her for a long time after marrying into the Jiang family. Naturally, she had a lot to say, so Yin Huan could only remind her to whisper, "You Now it's the second young lady of the Jiang family, and Mrs. Jiang is here, so you don't have to worry about talking nonsense in her ears."

Cheng Bi'er pursed her lips, "It's uncomfortable to be married. My mother would not take anything wrong when I was at home, but in Jiang's house, if I said something wrong or did something wrong, There are some people who want to find out what's wrong."

"It's good that you know, don't think about what it is in the future." Yin Huan also knows that the bigger the family, the more important things will happen. Jiang's family has produced concubines for generations, and their family background must be inferior to many others. .

"Let me just tell you, I don't talk nonsense when I go out of my own yard in Jiang's house. I finally know why sister Jiang is so versatile. She has been here since she was a child." Cheng Bi'er was still talking. A little childish, Yin Huan pursed her lips and smiled, that was natural, otherwise why would the Jiang family send her into the palace.

After a while, the emperor's banquet was over. Because the empress left early, Yin Huan followed her mother and sister-in-law back to Gu's house. A few days after the autumn banquet, all the emperor's favorites and princesses of the right age, Then they are all given marriages.

None of this has anything to do with Yin Huan. After she replied to Su Qianmo's letter, she went to Meng's to see Brother Heng. Now the five-month-old child is very naughty, and the typical child is eager to stand up before he can crawl. , as soon as Yin Huan stood up, the little guy would stretch out his hand to be hugged by her, and when Yin Huan stretched out his hand, he would hold back the energy to breastfeed and insist on standing up by himself, and he would cry for you if you didn't cooperate.

How can a child of more than five months have such good foot strength? Usually, Brother Heng will sit on the soft couch after working hard for a while, rest for a while and stand up, and the little guy is busy standing up again. Two people play this game I had a great time playing.

"I'm sweating." Mrs. Meng reached out and wiped his back. The clothes inside were a little damp and hot, so she called the nanny to come in and change into clean clothes. Yin Huan's arms refused to move.

"I've never seen him being so clingy to your elder brother." Seeing her son laughing like this, Meng said, "Last time when Yi Zi came, he also hugged her neck and smeared her face with saliva."

Yin Huan lightly pinched his chubby face, "You dare to pounce on whoever you see is beautiful." Brother Heng would directly spit bubbles for her, and the maids standing beside him laughed, and Yin Huan Huan reluctantly took the handkerchief and wiped it clean.

"I think I'm about to fall asleep, so don't hold it, your hands are very heavy." Mrs. Meng asked the nanny to carry Brother Heng who was about to fall asleep, and Yin Huan came out of their room after sitting for a while, and suddenly felt It was cold, so Er Dong took a cloak and put it on for her.

"It's going to snow soon." When it came to November, the mountains would soon be covered by heavy snow, and he probably wouldn't be able to reply to this letter after receiving it.

A few days later, good news came from the Lu family. Lu's parents-in-law gave birth to a son, but the child seemed to be in poor health and very weak. Yin Huan still sent a congratulatory gift. When the child was full moon , Lin'an City is already covered in heavy snow.

This is the real eldest grandson of the Lu family. On the day of the full moon, the Meng family went to congratulate the Gu family. Gradually, the Mu family entrusted her with the affairs of the Gu family, while he devoted himself to preparing for the ceremony for the next year's Yinhuan. After Jiji, her caring little jacket is about to marry.

Someone asked why the second young master of the Lu family was not here, but no one knew why he was not there. They only knew that he was now determined to make contributions to the current dynasty like his father, so he went to Yangguan with General Lu.

Mrs. Sun received the blessings one by one, because the child was not carried out for others to see during the snowy day, and the child in the cradle looked weaker than ordinary people. Those poisons that could not go away still brought some to the children.

"When he's older, we'll take him to the doctor and let him take a look at Hui'er." Lu Chongshan knew that she had been looking forward to this child for too long, so he hugged her and comforted her.

"As long as he grows up healthy and healthy, I will be satisfied." Sun gently touched the child's face, raised her head and said softly to him, "By the way, don't forget to send the things to Gu's house. Thank her." Lu Chongshan nodded and went out.

A few days later, Yin Huan received a thank-you gift from Mrs. Sun. It was a real gift. Mrs. Sun sent her a land deed, which was a garden in Lin'an City. Yin Huan did not refuse. After accepting it, she knew that Mrs. Sun used such a heavy gift because she didn't want to owe this favor, and Yin Huan didn't want to use it to ask her for anything, so it's better to accept it cleanly, so that she won't have any scruples.
