The handover between Zhaoying and the government army was at Yongen Temple five days later. It was located in a valley northeast of Baocheng, and it was quiet and quiet. There were no monks in the temple, and only a crumbling and haggard old man still lived in it.
When Pang Jinming came to the site to check in, he did not kill the old man because he was afraid that unlucky would affect the handover. At this time, he saw thousands of people suddenly gathering in the small temple, which scared the old man and hid in the corner. When he saw him on the way through Huaqing, wearing a white curtain on his head, he felt pity and sent Xiaozhu to stuff a few copper plates before continuing to walk towards the main hall in the temple.
Zhao Dangshi did not come forward this time. The representatives of Zhao camp were Hou Dagui, and the entourage included Wang Laixing and He Kewei. Liu Shaozong was still fully responsible for the official army.
Ten thousand stones of grain and grass are not a small amount. Liu Shaozong organized soldiers and civilians to transport them in advance for four days and four nights before escorting them from Hanzhong to Yongen Temple. Now there are bundles of grain and fodder in the backyard of Yongen Temple, and a load of grain and fodder are piled up like a mountain. Wang Laixing took Shuiqiu Tan and a group of soldiers to do their best to count the specific amount.
While waiting for the results to be counted, Hou Dagui and Liu Shaozong were sitting face to face, staring at each other with big eyes, and were speechless. Hou Dagui pretended not to care about looking at the spider webs in the corner, and from time to time, he quickly scanned his movements while Liu Shaozong was not paying attention. Liu Shaozong also deliberately looked at his erratic eyes, but in fact he was secretly paying attention to Hou Dagui's every move.
The two sat in awkwardly for a while, and Huaqing stepped into the hall. Liu Shaozong's eyes lit up and he hurriedly went up to greet him: "Princess, are you in good health?" Hou Dagui whispered "Guyss" and stood up.
"Well, it's okay." Princess Huaqing responded calmly, not as happy and excited as Liu Shaozong imagined.
Hou Dagui quickly stepped up and said in a rough voice: "General Liu, the food and grass have not been ordered, but the princess is still from my Zhaoying. Be careful, don't get too close." After that, he glared at the bull's eyes.
Liu Shaozong cursed inwardly, feeling angry, but considering his image in front of the princess and the successful completion of the handover, he swallowed his anger and ignored Hou Dagui, and said earnestly to Huaqing: "Princess, I have really wronged you these days. Let's get things done here soon. Please go to the side hall to have a rest first."
Hou Dagui tilted his neck and stared at Liu Shaozong. He also ordered his subordinates: "Take the princess to the side hall, and no one is allowed to offend the princess with no orders!" He has been in the green forest for a long time, and the kidnapping of the person who is familiar with the kidnapping is no longer familiar. Letting Liu Shaozong meet Princess Huaqing make him feel at ease, and then taking the princess up is to drive him to complete the handover honestly.
Liu Shaozong did not have any other intentions when he came this time, and he took the initiative to go to Zhaoying. Even though he was anxious, he could only let him go and watch Princess Huaqing leave him.
The food and grass point was time-consuming and laborious. In the middle, there were still civil servants pushing carts to deliver the remaining food and grass to the temple one after another. Hou and Liu sat there for a whole morning, but they didn't wait for the result, so they finished their place and had their own meals.
During the meal, Hou Dagui suddenly heard a noise in the side hall and said angrily: "Who is there to make noise?"
As one of the main planners of the operation, Pang Jinming also followed the temple. He walked over and said, "A Confucian scholar, under General He, is named Guo Mingtao. He wanted to sneak into the side hall and stop him."
"Guo Mingtao?" Hou Dagui scratched his head and ears, and had no impression of this name, but considering that Zhao Dangshi had always respected scholars, he was unwilling to be rude, "You ask General Manager He to take good care of this guy. General Manager Manager, even the ones who are in charge of the work can't even be careful of the money and food!"
The sixth envoy of Zhaoying, the head of the Personal Support Department and the Special Service Department, called the "Commander", the chief inspector and the coach commander were abbreviated as "Inspector" and "Coach", and the internal affairs officer and the money and grain envoy were both commonly called "General Manager". Wang Laixing and the deputy envoy Shui Qiu were too busy to talk to, and the internal affairs officer He Kewei also went to help. Guo Mingtao was sent to He Kewei's subordinates, and this time he also followed him into the temple. He wanted to take the opportunity to meet Princess Huaqing, but the matter was not thorough, so Pang Jinming's subordinates noticed it, so he drove out.
Guo Mingtao's turmoil was over. The outsiders from the temple found Hou Dagui, who was Wu Liangjie, the leader of the back battalion of the old army. Hou Dagui first mocked the "little white face" in his heart, and then said, "Is the person here?"
Wu Liangjie flirted with the hair that was spread on his forehead and cheeks because of sweat stains, and gasped and said, "Go back to the general, 2,734 people have brought them all, and now they are waiting for inventory outside the temple."
Hou Dagui thought to count the price and said, "No need to order it. I will tell you later and let him take the person over." Although these old, weak, women and children are living people, in Hou Dagui's opinion, the importance is far less than that of the food and grass in the backyard that can't walk or speak. Anyway, they will be thrown to the government army. What's the point of not having fewer or more?
Wu Liangjie repeatedly claimed that he was, saying, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first." Seeing that Hou Dagui was greedy and ignored him, he left reluctantly.
After lunch, Hou Dagui returned to the main hall and found that Liu Shaozong had already sat upright there and sneered secretly. Not long after he sat down, Wang Laixing hurried over and placed a piece of paper in front of Hou Dagui's table, and said, "The materials and fodders in the backyard have been seldom been cleaned up. Please check the general."
"Yes, OK." Hou Dagui nodded, looked at Liu Shaozong with a glance, picked up the paper and looked at it.
Liu Shaozong seemed to be nothing, but in fact he was really surprised. He couldn't see that the rough man, who was big and thick across the street, was actually literate. You know, even in the Ming army, there were not many officers who could read, and even many famous generals and deputy generals were no different from ordinary soldiers, all of whom were ignorant.
Regardless of the seemingly gentle counting personnel, the one fighting man in Zhaoying was actually quite cultural. With this point, Liu Shaozong's perception of Zhaoying immediately changed drastically. He vaguely felt that it was not without reason that Zhaoying could still be stable in Hanzhong for so long.
But he didn't know that this was a flower gun played by Hou Dagui. For the first time, he represented Zhao Dangshi to meet with the generals of the Ming army at the first level. Hou Dagui was unwilling to belittle the other party, so he gave Zhao's face and wanted to put some pressure on the official army. So he greeted Wang Laixing, He Kewei and others early in the morning, and agreed to write the number of grain and grass on a piece of paper first, then the number of salt and beans, and so on. As for the numbers, he had memorized them by rote before, and basically memorized the shapes of one to ten, hundreds, thousands, and thousands. At this time, he could see them without any obstacles.
Judging from the paper, the official army brought wheat, grains, etc. this time together, basically reaching the level of about 9,000 stones. As for the 1,000 stones that were at least, it was probably eaten by the civilian soldiers who were escorted on the way or the officers who were sharing the benefits. This was a small loophole in the agreement that was originally decided, and it didn't matter if it was drilled for Liu Shaozong.
After getting the big head, Hou Dagui was quite determined. Then he looked at it. In addition to food and grass, there were also 1,000 kilograms of gunpowder. Although it was not much, it was better than nothing. It was reasonable to trade with bandits and give some money and grain. But if the number of powerful weapons such as gunpowder was too large and he was stabbed out by someone, even the emperor's uncle, King Rui might not be able to bear the blame. So whether it was limited by inventory or for self-protection, King Rui could take out 1,000 kilograms of gunpowder. Other things were mixed, not too much, and it was not important. Hou Dagui was basically satisfied with the results of the inventory.
Liu Shaozong also breathed a sigh of relief as Hou Dagui's tense face gradually calmed down and asked, "How about it, can you hand over the princess to me?"
"Let's go." Hou Dagui stood up with a big hand, "There is still a condition, General Liu, don't forget."
"Hmph, are you going to talk about those three thousand people?"
Hou Dagui squeezed out a very ugly smile: "Everyone is waiting outside the temple for General Liu to go and count. After General Liu orders, we can disperse."
After he said that, he leaned back and prepared for a long time to waste. Unexpectedly, Liu Shaozong waved his hand and said, "No need to order it. Since you have no objection to the food and grass, please bring the princess out. I will take away the people outside the temple."
Hou Dagui was overjoyed when he heard this and thought it would be best to avoid my worries. He waved his hand back and called Pang Jinming to ask him to bring the princess out. Soon, Huaqing came to the main hall again. Hou Dagui walked up and clasped his fists and said, "Princess, the matter has been done, I will not leave you here in Zhaoying. I hope you will be on the way back to the city smoothly." He paused and his voice was slightly heavy, "My lord asked me to tell you, he liked the little blue flower you gave me very much."
"Has he really said that?" Hua Qing, who had no words and indifferent attitude, suddenly became interested and asked back. However, Hou Dagui just nodded and did not say anything else.
Huaqing suddenly felt lost, feeling a little empty in his heart, and pursed his lips tightly. Liu Shaozong was anxious and could not hear what Hou Dagui was saying sneakily. He was afraid that there would be more dreams at night, so he took a big step forward and said, "Prince, let's go. Princess and Princess, I miss you tightly!" After saying that, he separated himself between her and Hou Dagui.
Hou Dagui looked at him, turned around and left, and said as he walked, "Send General Liu and the Princess out of the temple." Liu Shaozong was afraid that something would go wrong again, so why didn't he be wrong?
Huaqing followed Liu Shaozong to go out two steps, but she couldn't help but look back at Hou Dagui, Pang Jinming, Wang Laixing, and even every soldier in Zhao Camp. She had never met these people, and it was even the first time she saw them, but for some reason, when she thought that these people were comrades-in-arms who had been with Zhao Dangshi day and night, she felt very close to them. Through them, she seemed to be able to see Zhao Dangshi's shadow, his heroic smile, and full of energy...
Liu Shaozong brought not many people this time, one thousand soldiers and five hundred civil servants. He sent Huaqing to the curtain carriage that had been prepared long ago, and opened the way first. One thousand soldiers tied the carriage in two rows, and sent copper coins to the civil servants to disband. Nearly three thousand people were placed behind the back and were under the supervision of a few soldiers, following them in a scattered manner.
As the car was walking, Yongen Temple soon disappeared behind the deep grass and trees. Every once in a while, Huaqing would open the window curtain and ask where Xiaozhu was following the shaft of the car. Sometimes Xiaozhu didn't know, so he could only take a small step and ran to the front to ask Liu Shaozong. When he was sure that he had left the territory of Baocheng and entered Nanzheng, Huaqing stopped asking.
She missed Zhao Dangshi for no reason. She was not so strong a few days ago, but since she left Yongen Temple, Zhao Dangshi's figure has been lingering in front of her. She felt that there was an invisible stone in her chest, which made her breathless.
"What's wrong with me?" She kept asking herself, but she couldn't get the answer.
When I arrived in Nanzheng and entered the official road, the carriage was much smoother, but Huaqing felt uncomfortable and wanted to rest for a while. Unexpectedly, Xiaozhu's call came from outside the car.
"What's wrong?" she asked with her curtain lifted.
Xiaozhu leaned inside and said to her: "Mr. Liu sent a few people to the back in front. At this time, I looked back and disappeared the people who were following behind." Nearly three thousand people handed over from Zhaoying were always following behind. Xiaozhu was lively by nature and liked to look around the corner, but accidentally discovered this situation.
"Where have people gone?" Huaqing felt a little uncomfortable at this time, but when he thought of the three thousand people, his sense of responsibility still drove her to cheer up.
"I don't know." Xiaozhu shook his head and said, "Why don't you ask Lord Liu, princess. But don't let the people run away while he is not paying attention, then he will be dereliction of duty?" Xiaozhu is kind and simple, and does not understand the inside story. She is very grateful to Liu Shaozong, who rescued her and the princess from Zhaoying, so she was quite worried about him in words.
"That's right..." Huaqing thought for a while, "You have to work hard to go to Lord Liu to ask."
After a while, Xiaozhu ran back from the front, and Huaqing asked her: "What did Lord Liu say?"
Xiaozhu swallowed and replied: "Mr. Liu said that the people's speed was too slow, and the princess was delayed from returning to the city. The two sides separated, so the princess took the first step."
"Is this true..." Hua Qing was still thinking about it, but the carriage suddenly stopped at this time. "Uh..." Inertia almost made her hit the car door. Fortunately, she climbed the guardrail in time to avoid being injured.
"Princess!" Xiaozhu was shocked, but at the same time he heard the soldiers shouting: "Be careful, there are bandits!"
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers shouted: "Don't panic, it's just a few dilapidated houses." As a result, Xiao Zhumoto's heart fell back in his throat.
