Chapter 354? Li Ji is here

Due to information asymmetry and other reasons, Li Jing and Li Ji discussed it for a long time but did not discuss a result.

So the two of them didn't discuss it in the end, and they would talk about it later when they arrived in Yunzhou. Anyway, the central army was only three or five days away from Yunzhou at this time, so there was no rush.

At this time, Yunzhou, the sect, Cheng Wenle, was eagerly waiting for the arrival of the army.

Unlike what Li Jing and Li Ji thought, Cheng Wenle did not have too many ideas. He was forced to do nothing and then he would put his ideas on Li Jing.

Outside the city, three thousand vanguards of the Northern Expedition Army were stationed there. It was okay if people ate and chewed, but after all, a large number of supplies had been transported from Chang'an before.

But the main general of these three thousand people ran to the government office every day to ask for the same thing as the chickens and ducks. Yunzhou is a border state, not a wealthy Chang'an. The people are poor and can't even eat enough, so how could there be so many chickens, ducks and poultry?

Just as he was depressed, two figures outside the yamen walked in, and before he could speak, one of them was already smiling and bowing: "Entertainment, I'm here to trouble you again."

Looking at the person coming, Cheng Wenle looked as dark as the bottom of the pot and said angrily: "General Li, don't force me. Even if you force me to death today, I can't bring out what you want."

"Oh, where did Cheng Jun say?" General Li was naturally Li Hao. Cheng Wenle's attitude did not affect him. He smiled and found a seat to sit down: "I am not here today to ask for something from you."

I believe you, it seems like I said this yesterday, but in the end I bought a hundred chickens from the people at a high price before I sent the guy away.

Seeing Cheng Wen's joy and disbelief, Li Hao showed an annoyed expression: "Zheng Jun, you know Li's character. He always talks about it. Today, he said he would not ask for anything from you, so he would not ask for something from you."

What can Cheng Wenle say? Although Li Hao is not old, his official position is no lower than his sect. It is impossible to suppress him. He simply smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, General Li, for your accomplishment."

"Haha..." Li Hao smiled and waved his hand generously: "Become an envoy, Li has been bothering him before. This is a helpless move. I hope you don't take it to your father's sake. In addition, there is a small gift here, and giving it to the envoy is considered a little bit of Li's care."

Tiezhu was originally standing behind Li Hao, signaling him, took a bag from behind and came to Cheng Wenle, and placed it on the table in front of him.

Gift? Is this money coming back? Cheng Wenle looked at Li Hao incredible.

But when Li Hao smiled slightly, he made a gesture of invitation: "I open it and see, but I'm satisfied."

Looking at the bag in front of me, Cheng Wenle felt that the things inside didn't seem to be heavy. After opening them, I found that it was as if I had guessed. There was nothing valuable except a set of very thick clothes.

"This is……"

Li Hao smiled mysteriously: "Our army has been stationed outside the city these days, and I have been disturbing the envoys a lot. Li is really a little disgusted with him. Moreover, based on Li's observations during this period, I found that the envoys do love the people as good as their sons, so I gave you a wealthy show before leaving."

Cheng Wenle, a wealthy and other things, said that he didn't care, and he would not deny it as a good official.

I think that since he came to this place where birds do not shit, he has never dared to say that he has devoted himself to his life until his death, he can also be called a waste of energy and blood. Under his governance, the people lived and worked in peace and the bandits disappeared.

Even when facing the prince's most beloved minister Li Dejian and the prince's close minister Hegan Chengji, he never owed the people a little. Even if the other party makes things difficult for him, he would rather lose money in it and buy chickens and ducks in it than let the people suffer.

Thinking of this, Cheng Wenle couldn't help but feel much better about Li Hao and bowed: "General Li Xiao is determined, Wenle is ashamed."

Li Hao shook his head: "Li knew that what he did during this period had caused great trouble to the envoy. I believe that Li Hao was a little unreasonable. You don't have to rush to deny it. You still have this self-knowledge. However, as the saying goes, do extraordinary things at extraordinary times. If it were not for the urgent war, Li would never force the envoy to do so. I hope the envoy can understand this."

Cheng Wenle is a scholar with a strong personality and would rather break than bend. If Li Hao continues to be tough, he might be able to force him to kill him.

But Li Hao suddenly changed his temperament today. He did not say politely, but also took the initiative to apologize, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

Everyone is not talking about it for business. Just saying that Li Hao had to take the army to fight against the Turks at a young age made Cheng Wenle very ashamed. He immediately grew up and bowed a long time across the table: "General Li was brave enough for the Tang Dynasty, fought on the battlefield with bloody battles, Cheng Le... He dared not complain to the general."

"The envoy, no one can do it." Li Hao stepped forward and helped Cheng Wenle up: "At a young age, how can you get the envoy's tribute? This battle on the battlefield is a matter of soldiers' life. Why did Li dare to take credit?"

Li Hao said politely and politely. When Cheng Wenle heard it, he felt like he was a confidant. He pulled his sign language and asked with concern: "General Li, it is said that the matters in the army should not be inquire about it, but since the general led his troops here, our Yunzhou has the obligation to provide convenience to the army."

Speaking of this, Cheng Wenle paused and continued after a while: "I wonder if the general can tell me what you said is the extraordinary time and extraordinary things."

"Oh, there is nothing to say about this." Li Hao smiled, pulled his hand out of Cheng Wenle's hand without any trace, and pointed to the outside, "I should know that the three thousand tigers I led were all from Chang'an, and it was difficult to adapt to the climate in the northern desert. In addition, it was particularly cold this year, so countless people were frostbite."

Cheng Wenle blinked suspiciously, unable to understand what the cold day had to do with plundering poultry and white scattered scatters.

Seeing that he was like this, Li Hao picked up the set of clothes on the table: "Can you see how different this clothes are from ordinary clothes?"

"It seems to be a little thicker." Cheng Wenle first looked carefully, then reached out and touched: "It seems that there is something inside."

"Yes, I gave it a new name for this set of clothes, called down jacket. It is made by sewing two pieces of clothing inside and outside, and then filling them with various poultry feathers. It has a good warmth effect on your body."

"Oh? Take this seriously? Those useless poultry feathers can actually be used to make clothes?" Cheng Wenle's eyes widened, unable to believe his ears. After living for more than 40 years, this was the first time he heard that someone used poultry feathers to make clothes.

Li Hao didn't talk much to him, but just mentioned his clothes: "If you don't believe me, try putting it on."

Just try it. Cheng Wenle put the so-called down jacket on his body without saying a word, and took big steps to pick it up outside.

The snow that had been falling outside for several days had stopped. The cold wind was howling, and the remaining snow was rolled up and hitting it on the face, causing pain.

But even so, Cheng Wenle didn't feel that he was cold. The raging cold wind kept blowing around him, but it couldn't blow through the not-so-thick down jacket on his body.

Cheng Wenle stood outside for nearly a quarter of an hour, and his face was almost wrinkled by the wind, but his body was warm and there was no slight coldness.

It was not until this time that he knew how precious the clothes Li Hao gave him were.

Clothes are made of poultry feathers, which means that ordinary people can afford them as long as they are skillful.

Thinking that the people would no longer die of freezing to death on the roadside because of the cold in the future, Cheng Wenle staggered back and came to Li Hao without saying a word, bowing directly to the ground: "General Li is kind, Wenle thanked the general on behalf of the people of Yunzhou. Wenle had many misunderstandings about the general before, so I hope the general will not be surprised."

"Eunuch, I am going to destroy me!" Seeing Chengwenle willingly bowing down, Li Hao was happy, but there was no sign of his face. He hurriedly pulled him up and comforted him: "Actually, this down jacket was not made by me specifically for the people of Yunzhou, but for the emergency method of relieving frostbite by the soldiers in our army. Everything is just a coincidence."

But Cheng Wenle was still willing to listen to Li Hao's explanation, and he kept apologizing: "General, Wenle is ashamed. You are a soldier and the people, but I, Cheng Wenle, misunderstood the general in every way. I, always obstructed it, and I, should be punished for death!"

Li Hao didn't expect that the Yunzhou Instigator Cheng Wenle was actually a person with a temperament. He felt a little embarrassed to fool him so he forced him up and said, "If Cheng Jun is really interested, please help collect some poultry. Li is here to give me a thank you."

Cheng Wenle did not shirk responsibility this time, but asked with some confusion: "Uh... General, isn't this clothes made of feathers? Why did the general insist on buying poultry?"

Li Hao: "..."

Tiezhu couldn't help it: "Your sour thorns have so many problems. If you don't buy poultry directly, can you buy feathers directly? Without hairless, how can those bald chickens and ducks survive the winter?"

Oh, what I said makes sense, why didn't I expect it?

...

Another morning was another morning, and on the third day after receiving the complaint from the Yunzhou Assassin, another urgent document was placed on Li Jing's desk.

Looking at the Yunzhou mark above, Li Jing felt annoyed and secretly blamed his disobedient boy.

It would be fine if you said you were struggling in Chang'an, but you wouldn't stop at Yunzhou. This is a border town, and there is a war soon. If something happens, how can you explain to the Emperor?

Li Ji looked at Li Jing's hesitant face and even wanted to laugh: "Pharmacist, escaping is not a way, so let's open it and take a look."

Li Jing had no choice but to bite the bullet and took the letter apart, and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that his face was strange, Li Jie also came up to watch it.

Then…….

"Well? Is this Yunzhou sect anger suffering from mental illness? The two letters before and after are completely opposite. What is going to be a mess?"

Li Jing rubbed his chin hard, but he was a little confused about what the Yunzhou sect Chengwenle meant.

A few days ago, he came to complain, saying that Li Hao was acting recklessly. Today I wrote to him that Li Hao was loyal to the country and that he was inconsistent with the foreword. Could it be that his kid had used some means to deal with this written music?

Oh my God, the earth, that little brat shouldn't be so unreasonable. He was a fourth-rank envoy, and he was not an ordinary county official.

After a long silence, Li Jing finally spoke: "Mr. Mao!"

Facing Li Jing's gaze, Li Ji understood and said, "Here, the pharmacist wants to let someone go and see it in advance?"

"Well, please trouble Mr. Mao." Li Jing's face was full of fatigue. He had not felt powerless for several months before preparing for this Northern Expedition. Today, he bent down because of two letters from the Yunzhou Assassin.

Li Ji no longer had the intention of scammers. Thinking that his eldest son should still be doing the robbery in the vast ocean at this time, he couldn't help but sigh with Li Jing.

...

With Cheng Wenle's willing help, the collection of poultry has accelerated a lot. In just half a day, nearly a thousand chickens and ducks were sent to the camp, which forced Li Hao and Hegan Chengji to sigh at the great influence of the Yunzhou envoy in the hearts of the people.

It has to be said that by taking advantage of the opportunity to make down jackets, the big soldiers in the camp also really opened meat. Every day, the chickens and ducks continued to grow, and the level of fire food has been improved by more than one level.

Under such circumstances, Li Ji rushed to the Pioneer Army Camp outside Yunzhou City and saw smoke rising from afar, and the smell of hot chicken feathers could be smelled between two miles.

Li Ji, who was very strict in the army, could not bear such stimulation? He rushed towards the camp at once.

Looking at the snow fog rising in the distance and the black dragon-like team, the vanguard army camp immediately sounded.

When Li Ji arrived in front of the camp, two thousand soldiers had already set up their formation and raised their muskets.

Not bad, the reaction speed is OK. Facing the black muzzle, Li Ji nodded secretly, finally not forgetting his job, and his vigilance is pretty good.

Without waiting for the superiors to show his head, the guards around Li Ji directly urged the horse to approach the camp and shouted loudly: "Where is the vanguard of the front army? General Li, deputy general manager of the Dingxiang Road marching, has arrived, but he has not come to greet him quickly."

The sound fell, but two generals in bright light armor flashed behind the two thousand soldiers in the camp, and both came out of the camp and bowed to Li Ji: "Li Dejian (Hegan Chengji) is the general under his post."

Li Ji stared at the two of them for a while, waved his hand and said, "Yes, get up."

"No!" Li Hao and Hegan Chengji looked at each other, and at the same time stood up. While ordering the personal army to move away from the horse and other things, they stood up and guided Li Ji: "General, please enter the camp."
