Chapter 454 News from Mobei

Wen Yuanhong, who was shot inexplicably, smiled and touched his nose, and said, "Uncle, I'm not as leisurely as my little sister. I have a lot of time to practice swordsmanship. It would be nice if I didn't hold back everyone!"

Xi Hongjun shook his head and said solemnly: "Practicing martial arts can not only strengthen your body, but also protect the things you care about. When necessary, you don't ask others. You should exercise more."

"Yes!" Wen Yuanhong answered very cheerfully.

Xi Hongjun didn't say anything anymore. Wen Yuanjing, who was beside him, giggled and said, "Uncle, the gift you gave me yesterday was so beautiful. I like it very much! Is that a pearl? It looks so big!"

Wen Yuanhong joked: "The elder brother-in-law also said that he looks like Dongzhu!"

Wen Yuanhong's original intention was to praise those beads, but Xiao Yuyan hummed disdainfully: "What's so good about Dongzhu! How can it compare to the Nanzhu given by my uncle!"

"Nanzhu?" The Wen brothers and sisters all widened their eyes.

Xiao Yuyan nodded as a matter of course, "It's Nanzhu! Haven't you heard of it?"

The brothers and sisters shook their heads honestly, Xiao Yuyan immediately became arrogant, and explained to them: "There is a saying on our side that the so-called Dongzhu is the pearl produced in the Northeast River Basin. It should not only be large and round, but also of the best quality. As long as various conditions are met, it can be called Dongzhu, and it is also precious. However, Nanzhu is more rare than Dongzhu. It comes from the sea.

Every year, hundreds of pearl pickers bury the sea for the sake of the South Pearl. Unfortunately, the pearls picked from the sea are good or bad. Only those who meet various harsh conditions can be called South Pearls. Pearl, you should have seen it yesterday, Nanzhu is delicate and dignified, smooth and crystal clear, round and clear, smooth and colorful, where can it be compared with Dongzhu! "

The two brothers and sisters of the Wen family were stunned when they heard it. Wen Yuanhong came back to his senses and marveled at the preciousness of Nanzhu. Of course, he would not comment on Xiao Yuyan's devaluation of Dongzhu to nothing.

Wen Yuanjing looked at Xi Hongjun with some unease, "Uncle, this thing is too precious, I."

Xi Hongjun waved his hand in a funny way, and said angrily, "It's just some gadgets, it's just because it's not common here, my uncle brought it for you specially, if it's not rare here, I don't want to give it away!

Don’t listen to Swift’s words, although Nanzhu is precious, it is nothing to our Xi family. After all, there are well-trained pearl pickers in the family who can harvest a lot of Nanzhu every year. It is unrealistic to sell them in large quantities. Still more than enough for my own use. "

The Wen family brothers and sisters were stunned when they heard it, and for the first time they became deeply curious about the Xi family.

Xi Hongjun saw their reaction, and saw them go to Lingnan again.

Chen Ningya just smiled when she knew this matter, she didn't plan to pay attention to it, and focused more on arranging household affairs at home.

The first thing she noticed was Zhuo Qianyu. On this day, she immediately went to Chen Ningya's side after she was busy with her family affairs, and asked anxiously, "Mother, are you planning to travel far?"

Chen Ningya looked up at the keen eldest daughter-in-law and smiled admiringly: "You are very clever, yes, I want to follow Yuan Liang and his eldest uncle to Xi's house after the Emperor Qianqiu Festival, and see you there. relatives."

Zhuo Qianyu raised his head, widened his eyes and asked, "Who is your mother going to bring with you?"

"What? You want to go too?" Chen Ningya asked in surprise.

Zhuo Qianyu twisted the veil, she really wanted to go! Lingnan! The southernmost point of Daqi! If I don’t go this time, I still don’t know if I have the chance to go there in my life! It's just that she doesn't dare to say such things! First, she was afraid of embarrassing Chen Ningya, and secondly, as Wen's first daughter-in-law, she would follow her when her mother-in-law went out, leaving her huge family business behind.

Yes, Zhuo Qianyu shook his head with difficulty, duplicating his words.

Chen Ningya knew that she didn't tell the truth when she looked like she was about to move, and suddenly fell into deep thought, "Actually, it's not impossible for you to go together"

Zhuo Qianyu shook his head desperately, "Mother, I don't want to go! I'll stay in the capital, guarding my family and children, waiting for you and your father-in-law to come back!"

Chen Ningya blinked, "You really don't want to go?"

Zhuo Qianyu nodded frantically and hurriedly changed the topic, "Mother, I came here today to confirm with you, and I just wanted to ask if you have any other orders. , you can go out with confidence.

Also, the uncle is going to find the concubine to settle accounts, and the daughter-in-law is worried."

Although that person is hateful, but his identity is there. The Xi family may be very powerful in Lingnan, but they are nothing in the capital. How can he fight against Concubine Ling? Zhuo Qianyu was worried that this matter would affect the Wen family.

Chen Ningya is not stupid either, she knew what she was thinking after listening to the beginning, and she couldn't help but sigh: "This is a grievance between your concubine and the Xi family, and it also involves a human life. Even if I am the Xi family, I will not interfere. Right, but I think Big Brother has gone through so many things, so he shouldn't act recklessly.

Besides, there is also a prince of Lingnan in our family, and there is nothing major about it. You can take care of the affairs of the family, and there is no need to worry about the others. "

After being persuaded by Chen Ningya, Zhuo Qianyu finally felt a lot more at ease.

As soon as she left, Chen Ningya immediately wrote a letter to send Dark Guard to Mobei.

Seeing that the Emperor's Qianqiu Festival is coming soon, the bad news from Mobei is also sent to the capital.

Early up, the emperor stared morbidly at the Manchu civil and military who were kneeling on the ground, and ordered all the princes and the prince of Dingbei to enter the palace together. Everyone in the Qianqing Palace was in danger until Xiao Guang and the princes arrived.

The emperor asked the Mobei messenger to enter the hall to report, "Tell me about Mobei's situation again in front of all the Aiqings."

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, suddenly there is a feeling that the storm is about to come.

The messenger was dressed in dust. He had just entered the capital, and he had not had time to sit down and breathe. He immediately knelt down and said loudly, "Report to the emperor, Mobei is in an emergency. The Huns set up an ambush on the desert and injured Marshal Fan. Marshal Fan ordered Wen. The adults led people to investigate, and Lord Wen found out that he really wanted to lead troops to fight back.

Huyan Lifu, the Huns general, gathered a large army to attack, and wanted to break through the Shayuan and enter Jili County. Lord Wen led his troops to resist, and fought with the Huns on the Shayuan, destroying 5,000 enemy troops, and our army was killed and wounded 800.

Huyan Lifu did not evacuate. He stationed troops on the sandy plain and continued to gather troops. Now that the army in Mobei is short of salaries, and food and medicinal materials are in urgent need, he asked the court for support. "

After everyone heard it, they fell silent.

It was Dai Yuyang who couldn't help but asked first, "How's Marshal Fan's injury?"

The messenger paused and replied honestly: "The skin injury will heal in two days."

Um?

Dai Yuyang was puzzled, "Since it's only a skin injury, why is it Lord Wen who led the army and not Marshal Fan?"

Could it be that Fan Qirui still has the talent as a military advisor? Strategizing and winning thousands of miles?
