Fu Jiezhi handed the document back and leaned over to hold Chen Sanlang's shoulders.
The bloody smell from the armor hit him in the face, and his surprisingly bright eyes stared into the abyss and asked:
"Why did the Xunyang Wang family send you here?"
When Chen Sanlang heard the other party's question, he was slightly startled, his eyes fixed on his toes, his fingers unconsciously stroking the corner of his clothes.
Various thoughts raced through my mind, desperately trying to find the most appropriate answer.
After all, nothing is certain now, I am just guessing, for that uncertain hope...
My thoughts involuntarily drifted back to more than a month ago.
The elegant room on the second floor of "Zuixianlou" in the south of Xunyang City.
The carved wooden windows were clattering as the rain hit them. Huo Ying approached mysteriously, his breath of alcohol in his ear:
"Sanlang, I went through a lot of trouble to get an appointment with Sun Wei this time..."
Before he finished speaking, there was the sound of "dong dong" footsteps on the stairs.
Sun Wei rushed in wearing a straw raincoat, took off his hat and shook off the water droplets: "What a horrible weather!" He sat down at the table with a big horse and a golden sword, and the raindrops as big as beans were still dripping down the straw raincoat.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Sun." Chen Sanlang quickly poured the wine. The amber wine swirled in the celadon cup, reflecting his twinkling eyes.
After three rounds of drinks, Sun Wei suddenly slammed the table and said, "Did you know that I just came back from Beining the day before yesterday?" He lowered his voice and said, "The northern barbarians have an army of 100,000 people besieging Beining City!"
The chopsticks in Chen Sanlang's hand fell onto the table with a "clack". Huo Ying also gasped.
Sun Wei raised his head and gulped down a glass of wine. "It was our young lady who asked us to escort the old lady back to the south, but she stayed in Beining City..."
He suddenly lowered his voice, "The barbarians and Hanshan people have surrounded Beining City..."
Chen Sanlang's heart was beating wildly, and a scene from his past life when the two of them were taking photos and checking in at the ancient city site appeared before his eyes:
"Look at the bricks and stones of this city wall. They have gone through so many storms, but they are still so solid and heavy."
Wang Jinyi tied her hair into a ponytail and gently stroked the city wall, her eyes full of awe.
Chen Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, every brick and tile here is history. Every step you take can be a dialogue with the ancients..."
Thunder exploded outside the window, but Chen Sanlang could only hear the sound of his own blood rushing. He rushed out of the private room on the pretext of going to the toilet, stopped at the end of the corridor, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down.
Sitting down again, Chen Sanlang asked casually, "Your young lady is the boss of Tai Sheng, right?"
Sun Wei raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and asked, "How did you know?"
Now that he had a direction in mind, there was no need to test it anymore. He couldn't wait any longer, he had to go and see it for himself!
The next morning, Chen Sanlang went to the Tai Sheng headquarters early. Zhao Chunming took him to see the account office and asked, "Sir, do you still want to come and copy the accounts?"
"Shopkeeper, can I?"
From that day on, Chen Sanlang officially became Zhao Chunming's assistant, specifically responsible for copying and verifying accounts at the end of the month.
It was he who managed to get the approval to send the accounts to Miss Wang for review this time.
Before leaving, Zhao Chunming asked:
"I arranged for you two to go to Beining because I heard that the siege has been lifted. Let's see if we can get into the city. Safety is the first priority, don't rush in!"
Chen Sanlang took the initiative to send three months' account to Beining. Before leaving, Zhao Chunming called him aside and told him seriously:
"If you can deliver the goods this time, then do so. If you cannot, then return immediately."
Zhao Chunming specially arranged two people to accompany him.
Chen Sanlang was concerned about Wang Jinyi, and when he arrived in Feng County, he was worried that there were more bandits, so he left the two people who followed him in the county town and took a shortcut to see the situation in Beining City.
Hearing that the northern barbarians had retreated, Chen Sanlang was overjoyed and his steps became more and more hurried. He hurried towards Beining, but who would have thought that he would encounter the defeated army on the way...
At this moment, facing Fu Jiezhi's questioning, Chen Sanlang gritted his teeth and secretly thought about how to answer so as not to reveal his true purpose and make the other party believe him...
The torches crackled and Fu Jiezhi's shadow shook violently on the stone tablet, bringing his thoughts back.
The medical officer suddenly increased the strength of his bandaged hands and sped up his technique. A warhorse came running with a fire shadow, and a soldier fell off the horse's back. "Report - the enemy soldiers are burning the mountain!"
Fu Jiezhi stood up suddenly and mounted his horse. Chen Sanlang stood up silently, "General..."
The young general shouted from his horse, "Everyone get on the horse."
The military doctors and clerks quickly gathered and returned to the team, and heard the general say: "The enemy soldiers are fleeing and want to burn a road to the sky. We must cut off their fantasy and send them back home completely!"
The tattered robes were blown by the night wind, and the soldiers were excited.
"My men, follow me to kill the enemy and make merit! Charge—"
Chen Sanlang was in the team, being swept up the hillside...
As the dawn broke in the east, the sky finally brightened. When the morning light shone on the mottled and dilapidated walls of Beining City, the Daqi officers and soldiers who had been chasing and besieging the city all night, dragged their tired feet and set up camp less than five miles away from the city.
Chen Sanlang was left in the wounded camp. This time he was seriously injured. The wound on his left arm broke open again, and the wound under his ribs increased from one to three.
Chen Sanlang's bloodstained collar was cut open, and he leaned weakly in a makeshift military tent. Two soldiers held down his arms, and a medical officer pressed a red-hot iron between his ribs. The wound made a "sizzling" sound, and the smell of burnt flesh filled the air.
"Just bear with it."
The old medical officer trembled his gray beard, "If your wound was half an inch deeper, even a god could not save you."
Chen Sanlang bit the leather rope, cold sweat soaking his back. After taking a deep breath, he vaguely heard the familiar sound of horse hooves coming from outside the tent - it sounded like General Fu!
The curtain was suddenly lifted, and the young general strode over, with blood still staining his armor.
He squatted down, stretched out his hand and gently patted Chen Sanlang on the shoulder: "You are really good, I have never seen such a good scholar, you are really lucky."
Then he took out a small celadon bottle from his bosom and said, "This is the Wang family's golden wound medicine. It's a bargain for you."
"Wang...Wang family?" Chen Sanlang suppressed his breath, his breathing stagnated due to the pain, his heart suddenly became confused, and the wound didn't seem to hurt anymore.
Fu Jiezhi smiled meaningfully and said, "This time, we were able to successfully pacify the coalition forces and lift the siege of Beining, all thanks to the Wang family."
“That Wang family!”
Fu Jiezhi inspected the tent and returned to Chen Sanlang's bed. "This is due to the contributions of the Beining Wang family, and of course your Xunyang Wang family also contributed a lot."
"General, what is the merit?"
"Before the enemy arrived at the city, Tai Sheng was the first to donate food and raise funds and fodder for the soldiers defending the city. ..."
