Chapter 356 The Charm of Mahjong
Of course, all of them were injured, and two of them had quite a few places on their bodies.
But these fifteen people, one by one, all had smiles on their faces.
Moreover, they all held their heads up, with a look of "look how amazing I am".
King Anyang saw the mere Fifteen Chiwu Army, who had only been out for a while, and had come back with so many prey, and the gazes of the fifteen people were very admirable.
"As expected of my Dayan's strongest sergeant, he is truly brave and unparalleled!" King Anyang looked at the brown bear corpse on the ground with burning eyes.
turned out to be a brown bear. This thing is so fierce and unusual that it is difficult for ordinary people to do anything about it.
Such beasts were actually carried back by these people.
Henry Zhang and Fan Teng looked at each other, and then looked at the brown bear corpse on the ground.
"Your Highness praised me." Then Henry Zhang saluted King Anyang.
"In the past, when the border was bitter and cold, when the general king was there, he often led his soldiers into the mountains to hunt and provide meat for the soldiers."
"Because of too much hunting, over the decades, there have been fewer beasts at the border."
"However, this Qingshi Town has a lot of mountains, and no one hunts, so there are plenty of wild things!"
Hearing Henry Zhang mentioning the general king, Chi Wujun seemed to remember the time when he went out hunting with the general king, one by one, with smiles on their faces.
King Anyang's expression became a little sad.
"It's a pity that the general Wang serves the country and the people..." sighed.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the Red Martial Army became sad again.
"Don't mention the past. Today's prey is the rarest of this bear!" Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly interjected.
In a word, the sad atmosphere was transformed back.
"What the cousin said! In order to catch this bear, the brothers are all dead!" Henry Zhang answered.
Then his eyes moved, and he suddenly bowed to King Anyang again.
"Your Highness helped us to evacuate the border, and today gave us so many good things from the Chiwu Army."
"I don't have anything to repay the lord. This bear was beaten by our brothers, so I gave it to the lord as a gift."
"Please accept it!" Henry Zhang said with sincerity.
King Anyang was surprised.
"How does this work?" He hurriedly refused.
But even though he refused, his eyes stayed on the bear, obviously he was interested in it.
King Anyang really took a fancy to this brown bear.
However, I don’t want to eat it myself, but I want to send it to Kyoto as a tribute.
Although there are all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas in the palace, there are not always bear paws.
Oh no, it should be said that there are very few such things.
He wants to send this thing to Kyoto, which is more valuable than any gold and silver jewelry.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled, "Since it is a piece of the hearts of the soldiers, the lord will accept it!"
"Otherwise, wouldn't you make the soldiers feel uneasy and uneasy?"
King Anyang was taken aback.
"Well, then the king will thank all the soldiers!" Then he accepted the brown bear.
"Then let's take this blind bear to the carriage of the palace!" Henry Zhang said immediately.
said, without waiting for King Anyang to speak, he and Fan Teng started together.
Liang Yu quickly arranged for a guard to lead the way for the two of them.
After the brown bear was carried away, the King of Anyang went to sit with Lin Xiaoyue and others.
Then, it didn't take long for lunch to start.
King Anyang and others, as well as important figures of the Chiwu Army, dined in the hall.
The rest were arranged in the large courtyard outside the hall and outside the courtyard.
Director Fang spoke, telling everyone what King Anyang had done for the Chiwu Army, and that all the food on everyone's table today was given by King Anyang.
After expressing thanks on behalf of the Chiwu Army, invited King Anyang to speak to the soldiers.
The King of Anyang will naturally not miss this opportunity to win people's hearts, and he expresses his heart of benevolence and virtue, as well as his admiration for the general king and the Chiwu Army. In the Chiwu Army, a wave of goodwill was brushed.
After King Anyang finished speaking, Director Fang asked Li Xiao to teach the soldiers.
As soon as Li Xiao stood up, the atmosphere became solemn.
I saw him take a glass of wine and sprinkle it on the ground in front of him.
"The first cup, sacrifice to the general king."
The audience was solemn for a moment.
"The second cup, offering sacrifices to the thirty-nine slaughtered of the Nangong family."
You Chi Wujun already had tears in his eyes.
"The third cup—"
"Sacrificing, starved to death and frozen to death at the border. And this evacuation, the soldiers who failed to return!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Chiwu Jun wiped away his tears.
And there were already tears in Li Xiao's eyes.
"Sacrificial!" Suddenly, Director Fang shouted loudly.
Immediately, the Chiwu Army picked up the wine bowls and sprinkled the first bowl of wine on the ground.
The strong sad atmosphere, with some chilling air, made the King Anyang in the house almost feel fear.
Just when King Anyang was uneasy, Li Xiao finally spoke again.
"Today is the 30th year, the last day of this year. Four hundred and twenty-six soldiers came back a year ago. There are still five thousand one hundred and twenty-eight people wandering outside."
The hearts of everyone are solemn.
The Chiwu Army was as close as brothers, they came to Qingshi Town safely and lived a good life. Today is even more able to drink and eat meat, and celebrate the New Year in a lively manner.
But there are so many brothers who are still wandering outside.
"This cup, to the soldiers who are not here today!"
"Respect!" Manager Fang said immediately.
Everyone raised their glasses (bowls) one after another, and then drank all the wine in the glasses or bowls.
After drinking, Li Xiaocai once again looked at the Chiwu Army in the yard.
"This time, I will be able to evacuate from the border with you all without the help of the prince..." Later, Li Xiao also thanked the king of Anyang.
said carefully what King Anyang had done for the Chiwu Army.
Finally, he also specifically pointed out that Gaoyi, the king of Anyang, promised to take in the Chiwu Army, and would find an opportunity to clear the grievances of the Nangong family and the Chiwu Army.
The weight of these words is heavy. After the Chiwu Army heard it, one by one, they looked at King Anyang differently.
Some sergeants even shouted at King Anyang and toasted King Anyang.
King Anyang naturally agreed, changed his weak image, and drank several glasses in a row.
After a while, Li Xiaocai introduced Lin Xiaoyue to everyone when a sergeant seemed to be joking and asked them about the general's wife.
Li Xiao pulled Lin Xiaoyue to his side and showed it generously to all the soldiers.
"The General's wife!"
In an instant, the Chiwu Army boiled.
"Mrs. Fairy descended to earth!" Someone suddenly said.
"Madame is as beautiful as a flower!"
"Mrs. Avalokitesvara reincarnated!"
There are many beautiful words in the ears. Rao is that Lin Xiaoyue has always felt good about herself, and her face is also hot.
Li Xiao didn't mean to stop, just looked at his soldiers and praised his daughter-in-law.
"Cough—"
was quickly glared by Lin Xiaoyue and coughed as a reminder.
Li Xiao raised his hand upwards to calm everyone down.
Then, wait until the audience is quiet before continuing to speak.
"My wife saved Ben from water and fire, and also saved the Chiwu Army from water and fire. She is the benefactor of Ben and you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Fang led the Chiwu Army and bowed to Lin Xiaoyue, thanking Lin Xiaoyue.
Afterwards, Li Xiao told everyone what Lin Xiaoyue had done for the Chiwu Army and the next arrangement for the Chiwu Army.
"In the future, the Chiwu Army will no longer increase its troops. If the prince does not recruit, you will always be the civilians of Qingshi Town."
"Go back to the back, if you have the conditions, you can start a family and start a business..."
When Li Xiao said these words, the Chiwu Army was in an uproar.
Some of them thought about getting rid of their armour and returning to their fields, but that was only after they were old.
Now they are still young, strong and strong, and they are also suffering from grievance and hatred. Why should they go into hiding at this time?
Soon, someone raised an objection.
After was raised by one person, more people soon followed suit.
All are unwilling to go back to seclusion, and want to avenge the Great General King and the Chiwu Army, and to wash away their grievances.
King Anyang listened, and the relaxed strings in his heart tightened again.
The Chiwu Army is a knife, and it is very good at slashing others. If you don't use it properly, you can easily hurt yourself.
He didn't forget that his surname was Murong.
Li Xiao stretched out his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Then, he opened his mouth and said, "The grievances of the Nangong family and the Chiwu Army will be washed away."
"The mission and future of the Chiwu Army must end in this generation!"
"Three hundred years after Dayan established the country, the Nangong family and everyone have done enough for Dayan." Li Xiao said solemnly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Chiwu Army looked at me and I looked at you, with resentment in their hearts and tears in their eyes.
Yes, the Nangong family and the Chiwu Army have done enough for Dayan. What you can get is this kind of treatment. Is it really worth it if you stick to it?
"This general has already decided. After the event is completed, he will go back to the mountains and forests with his wife, and will not ask about world affairs."
"At that time, if the Chiwu Army meets the conditions for discharge, they can return to Zhuangzi and return to their civilian status."
"The rest can enter the palace's army, become ordinary soldiers, and obey the orders of the prince." Li Xiao continued.
Chiwu Army, this designation carries too many things and sacrifices too much.
Even if he couldn't get all the soldiers to withdraw smoothly and free them from the Chiwu Army, he still gave them freedom.
As soon as these words came out, the Chiwu Army discussed again.
Someone soon persuaded me.
Li Xiao just waved his hand, his words firm.
"This will make up my mind."
After that, Li Xiao didn't say any more, and asked Director Fang to order the banquet.
In this way, the happy and somewhat irritable New Year's feast began.
King Anyang observed Li Xiao for a while, and also spoke out to keep Li Xiao.
said that the glory of the Nangong family would be restored, and the Chiwu Army could continue to be preserved.
Li Xiao still had a firm look on his face, saying that he would not change his mind.
In this regard, King Anyang was actually more at ease.
This New Year's banquet lasted for half a day, during which soldiers continued to come to the hall to meet Li Xiao and others.
Li Xiao almost drank and fell down.
Until the sky was getting dark, the group of people set off back to Dashi Village.
Back at Dashi Village, Lin Xiaoyue only knew that Princess Anyang and his wife Zhou and Hei Gang had arrived.
Lin Xiaoyue saw Princess Anyang for the first time, and found that the princess looked a bit like Liang Yu and had a very gentle personality.
Lin Xiaoyue quickly fell in love with this unassuming princess.
So, after the New Year's Eve dinner, Lin Xiaoyue took out the mahjong made by the carpenter.
Played mahjong with his mother, sister-in-law and princess.
Sitting on the hot kang, playing interesting mahjong, the four women quickly became immersed in it.
Even later, King Anyang, Liang Yu and Hei Gang, who were playing landlord battles outside, were attracted here.
The three learned how to play mahjong. One by one, they felt itchy when they saw mahjong.
Afterwards, King Anyang and Hei Gang defeated their daughter-in-law respectively, and under the guidance of her daughter-in-law, they also played mahjong.
"Sister, give your brother a pair of playing cards and mahjong!" Hei Gang threw a card and suddenly said to Lin Xiaoyue.
These two things are interesting. The day after tomorrow, when he and his daughter-in-law go back to their parents' house, if they can bring these two things, they will not worry about being bored at his father-in-law's house.
Daughter-in-law can play mahjong with sister-in-law.
He can play poker with his father-in-law and a few uncles.
King Anyang and Liang Yu immediately looked at Lin Xiaoyue with anticipation.
They want it too.
"This mahjong is really interesting. If Sister Yue'er has more in her hands, can you give me a pair too?" Princess Anyang glanced at her prince and spoke to Lin Xiaoyue.
King Anyang immediately cast an admiring look at his princess.
Princess Anyang couldn't help but let out a smile.
thought to herself, she didn't ask for this for the prince.
She wanted to bring a pair of mahjong back to the palace, and play mahjong with maids or officials in the future.
This mahjong is much more interesting to play than flower viewing and embroidery.
Liang Yu became a little anxious when she saw her sister speak.
He also wanted to ask Lin Xiaoyue for it, but was too embarrassed to say it.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
"What's so difficult about this? Don't the princess and sister-in-law have to leave the day after tomorrow? I'll let Shanshan go tomorrow to find Uncle Sun and make two sets of mahjong, so that it won't affect you taking it away the day after tomorrow!"
"As for the playing cards." Lin Xiaoyue looked at Hei Gang again.
"My deck of cards is of a special material, so I only have that deck in my hand."
Hei Gang and the others immediately showed disappointment.
"However, if you use the paper on the market and make it more finely processed, you should be able to make a good quality card. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, you might as well give it a try."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
"Then tomorrow, I will send someone to the town to buy all kinds of paper."
"When the time comes, we must make playing cards!" Hei Gang said with a look of interest.
Liang Yu's face moved slightly.
"Count me in." He even answered.
King Anyang glanced at Liang Yu.
"This king is also here." He even said.
caused Princess Anyang to burst out laughing.
Princess Anyang smiled, but Lin Xiaoyue and the others did not hold back and laughed.
King Anyang was not angry either, instead he was more friendly than before.
He thought that when he came to Dashi Village this time, there would be a lot of things he was not used to.
Also ready to endure a few days.
But I didn’t expect that this trip, instead of feeling boring, actually felt very interesting.
This year's Chinese New Year is even more lively and warmer than he was in Kyoto before.
It's just a pity that his mother and concubine couldn't come with him.
Otherwise, according to the temperament of the mother concubine, the Liu family and the Lin Dong family will definitely be liked.
She will love this mahjong too.
