Chapter 47: Rebirth
A month later, Li Xiaofei and his group finally returned to Shouxian County Government Office.
Meng Wuwu still talks about Qin Shun's wedding with relish: "I have been living for half my life, but I am not as good as a eunuch. Eunuchs can marry a wife and provide good food and drink. We men have to be single."
Li Xiaofei interrupted him: "I asked you to stay in the first place because you were a poor talker and wanted to quarrel. It's your mouth that has harmed you. I think it's better to find someone to sew it up for you."
Murong Ling took out a needle and Meng Wuwu quickly waved his hand: "Hey, mute, don't act recklessly. I rely on this to make a living. I want to eat all over the world, south of the Yangtze River and north of the desert. Oops, you fool, hurry up."
Stop him." Meng Crow covered her mouth and jumped up in pain.
Li Xiaofei was dumbfounded at the side and quickly tried to dissuade Murong Ling. He saw that Meng Crow's left upper and lower lips had been pierced together by a needle. Murong Ling's move was too quick and accurate.
Seeing that Meng Wuwu had his lips pierced, everyone else subconsciously touched their own lips. Murong Ling pointed at Meng Wuwu and said, "Just pierce him."
Others also began to ask about their wife and house, for fear of being missed.
When Li Xiaofei looked at the remaining one hundred people, he couldn't help feeling sad. He motioned for everyone to be quiet with both hands. Meng Wuwu also stopped, and Li Xiaofei began to arrange the next thing: "Meng Wuwu and Huang Banxian followed the county magistrate to settle and renovate everyone's houses.
I leave the matter of finding a wife to Xiao Youlu, the owner of the embroidery shop in the city. Murong Ling will follow me back to Jinling to resume her life."
Meng Wuwu started making trouble again: "I want to go to Jinling, why can only a mute go?"
Murong Ling and Li Xiaofei got on their horses and said, "Meng Wuwu, I don't take you with me because I'm afraid of harming you. I'm not sure whether I'll live or die myself. If I take you with your mouth, I'm afraid I'll die."
Meng Wuwu waved: "Hey, go ahead, I will buy paper money for you two tomorrow."
Murong Ling turned around and stretched out her hand to make a flying needle gesture. Meng Wuwu quickly covered her mouth again. Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling laughed and rode towards Jinling.
Along the way, Li Xiaofei inquired about Murong Ling's origins. After all, this man was able to compete with General Chen Hongyi when he came back.
I remember that after a group of people held the wedding of Qin Shun and Tao Wuniang from Wannian Village, they encountered a group of bandits ambushing them. Everyone fell into the trap, and it was Murong Ling who captured the bandit leader alive and saved everyone. Passing by Xiangyang because
Wearing Qin army armor, everyone was almost accidentally killed by the Xiangyang defenders. It was Murong Ling who climbed up the tower with Li Xiaofei's talisman among the arrows and got out of the siege. Later, he passed by Yingchuan to meet Chen Hongyi and Liu Jian. If it hadn't been for someone
Murong Ling and Chen Hongyi were tied, and more than two hundred people had to stay in Chen's army for training for a year.
Although Li Xiaofei is a talkative, he is at his wits' end when he meets Murong Ling. Every time he asks him where his home is, the answer he gets is two words - Longcheng; when he asks who else is in his family, he replies with one word - yes.
; Asked who he learned martial arts from, he replied with two words - master; asked him again who injured his leg before, and replied with one word - person.
Li Xiaofei had no choice but to give up. Murong Ling was unwilling to say anything. The two of them were riding horses side by side like this. Li Xiaofei couldn't hold it in any longer and would point to the birds in the sky, rabbits, pheasants, flowers on the ground and call Murong Ling to watch together. Every time Murong Ling would subconsciously
Li Xiaofei drew his sword. He was afraid of killing these birds and beasts, so he stopped calling him and could only hum to himself.
Fortunately, Shouxian County is not far from Jinling, so Li Xiaofei will not die of boredom and will arrive in three days.
Li Xiaofei took down the letters and edicts from Cui Hong, Hu Jian, Hou Dong, and the gold leaves Liu Jian gave him. He gave the letters to Murong Ling for safekeeping, and took the gold leaves to visit Xie Rui, Xiaoshan, Xiao Ding, and Yuan Kang first.
four people.
Xie Rui couldn't help crying when he learned that his uncle Xie Dan had died unexpectedly. He asked in detail about the location of Wannian Village, and then sent his servants to retrieve Xie Dan's bones. Li Xiaofei told Xie Rui about the situation in Qin, and Xie Rui listened.
After asking him: "What are the ideas of General Hussar and King Han?" Li Xiaofei took out Chen Hongyi's autographed letter from his arms and handed it to Xie Rui.
Xie Rui read this page for a while and then put it down: "The Hussars General is very resourceful, and he is right to worry about a dominant family and a powerful master. However, since the Northern Expedition is beneficial to all our families, I will definitely
I urge you to do this. By the way, the other three adults, you can just give them gifts and don’t even mention the Northern Expedition. I will go out and contact them about this matter."
Li Xiaofei said goodbye to Xie Rui and went to Xiao Ding and Yuan Kang's house in Xiaoshan to deliver gifts before entering the palace with Murong Ling.
After entering the palace, he spent all the remaining ten gold leaves, five of which were given to Qin Zhong.
Qin Zhong cried: "Poor brother Qin Shun, in order to complete his mission as an envoy, he actually sacrificed his life to serve the country and will never be able to visit Jinling again. What should we do?" Li Xiaofei and the others led the way while repeatedly rubbing a few gold leaves in their hands.
When he saw Liu Xuan in the side hall, Li Xiaofei found that the middle-aged emperor's hair was much whiter and he also had a cough.
Emperor Liu Xuan was reviewing the memorial, with dark circles under his eyes. Li Xiaofei and Murong Ling knelt down together: "The guilty minister Li Xiaofei has returned from his mission to the State of Qin, and I am returning my message to Your Majesty!"
Liu Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the two of them, a little surprised: "Why didn't Qin Shun and Xie Dan come together? Who is this?"
Li Xiaofei then submitted letters and edicts, and reported to Liu Xuan his experiences on the mission and return.
Liu Xuan listened and read the letters and edicts, but kept coughing. Liu Xuan hammered his chest with his hand, and Qin Zhong hurriedly ran over: "Your Majesty"
Liu Xuan waved his hand to stop Qin Zhong: "It's a little cold, it doesn't matter."
Murong Ling, who had been silent until now, spoke: "I can cure it!"
Liu Xuan's eyes lit up: "Then you can tell me how to cure it, cough, cough, cough." He coughed again in excitement.
Murong Ling immediately told him the medicines he used, and Liu Xuan shook his head: "Those medicines are still useless."
Murong Ling continued to say four words: "The usage is different!"
Liu Xuan became interested and raised his hand and pointed at Murong Ling: "You can tell me, I want to see where the imperial doctors went wrong."
Murong Ling only replied with four words: "People and medicine are steamed together."
Liu Xuan had also read a lot of medical books, but this was the first time he heard that people and medicines were steamed together. But after thinking about it, he thought it made sense and continued: "I am keeping this person named Murong Ling.
Whether your method is good or bad, I want you to be my personal bodyguard."
Murong Ling replied with one word: "No" and looked at Li Xiaofei again
Li Xiaofei was very embarrassed and had to remain silent. However, Liu Xuan broke the embarrassment himself: "Haha, what a Li Xiaofei, your people only listen to your words, not even the emperor's words. But I like this kind of loyal and upright people very much.
