Chapter 156
The horse galloped faster than the carriage, and it took one and a half hours, including the time for grazing and resting, to arrive at the military camp two hundred miles away from the capital.
The soldiers standing guard on the high platform outside the barracks saw a galloping horse approaching from a distance, without turning at all, staying not far from the barracks, and signaled to the soldiers below to go and have a look.
A few soldiers approached with weapons, and were about to ask who was coming, when they saw a beautiful noble lady coming down immediately.
"This... madam, I'm afraid you have gone to the wrong place. The female soldiers are not here, and there are only male soldiers in the barracks here." The soldier said.
"I'm not here to visit my daughter, but I want to come in and find someone." Feng Su'er said.
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?"
A heavy sign was thrown into the hands of the soldiers, who hurriedly caught it.
"Take this token and go to your general and let him see it." Feng Su'er said.
……
The general who was reading military books in the room heard a voice from outside the door and said, "Come in."
He is about 40 to years old, and his ability to march and fight can only be said to be so-so, so he is only the lowest rank, barely worthy of the official position of "general".
The soldier handed him the badge, and the general took it in doubt, only to see that the badge was rubbed very brightly, and the copper character in the center was almost worn away, and it was barely discernible that it was a "Feng" character.Flipping to the back, it was the seal of this barracks, which was also worn away, but the general was very familiar with this seal, so he recognized it at a glance.
"This is Old General Feng's token, and the person who came here may be his relatives..." The general pondered, "I heard that Old General Feng passed away, and I went to pay homage to him. The one who will be in charge of the funeral is his daughter, so it should be you The person who said it."
He got up and strode out, the soldiers followed behind him, and said in a low voice: "Old General Feng has passed away, and it is said that his daughter has also reconciled with Master Qin, and is now alone. Why does the General attach so much importance to her, and she still wants to go there in person?" To meet?"
The general ignored him, walked outside the barracks, returned the token to Feng Su'er, and performed a solemn military etiquette, Feng Su'er quickly returned the gift, saying: "I came here rashly this time to find my father's old department, I don't know the general Can it be convenient?"
She spoke bluntly and abandoned the polite sentences she learned in the Qin family.
The general agreed, and said: "I have always admired General Feng, and thanks to him, so many people are willing to come here to join the army."
Feng Su'er followed the general into the barracks, seeing that the layout hadn't changed much, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
In the past, she came here almost every day, and it instantly aroused her memory.
She was led by the general to the horse farm, and without further ado, she saw the old man who was feeding the horse at a glance, and choked up, "Uncle Li!"
This call startled the fodder from the hand of the old man feeding the horse.
He turned around, his old appearance could be vaguely seen on his old face, and he looked at Feng Su'er in amazement: "Feng girl!"
The familiar call made the two of them immerse themselves in the memories of the past, and when their emotions stabilized, Feng Su'er asked, "Uncle Li, do you know where all those people who followed my father went?"
"Why do you ask that suddenly?" Uncle Li asked sharply, "Girl, maybe someone bullied you?"
Feng Su'er was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "No way... I have chosen a female official now, it's okay. The thing is like this..." Tell Uncle Li everything he can say, and he is in a trance for a while.
Feng Su'er didn't bother him, Uncle Li came back to his senses after a while, and said: "It's been a long time since I rode a horse to fight, I never thought there would be such a day in my life..."
"How can I let you go in person, and don't look at your bones. You fell apart before you got on the horse." Feng Su'er couldn't help saying.
The two laughed, as if returning to the time when they belittled each other many years ago.
Suddenly, Uncle Li said seriously: "Most of the old men who followed General Feng back then were old, but the young men who first entered the barracks were young and strong. I still remember these people. I know where they live, just in case someday need us."
Feng Su'er was very moved, she didn't expect that they still remembered her father.
"By the way, is your father still in good health? Will he be 90 years old this year if he is not ?" Uncle Li laughed.
"..." Feng Su'er lowered her head and said, "My father has... passed away."
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Uncle Li couldn't believe it: "What? Say it again?"
After confirming that the matter was true, Uncle Li seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, his beards were trembling, his eyes were a little dark, he forced himself to smile and said, "Hey, look at my mouth, I have brought up the sad thing about Feng girl."
On the day of the funeral, Feng Su'er didn't see her father's subordinates. She thought it was because they were no longer in the capital, but she didn't get any news at all.
Thinking about it carefully, Feng Su'er's eyes were burning with anger: that conscientious Qin Liang must have done it!In addition, it wasn't long before the court ushered in a new empress, and the news was covered up intentionally or unintentionally, so there was no splash.
If the people in the barracks knew that General Feng had just passed away, that Qin Liang had reconciled with his only daughter and even married a concubine, his reputation would definitely be notorious!
I just hate that at that time, I was so absorbed in the pain of losing my father and the shock of being betrayed by my husband that I didn't have the heart to pay attention to the outside world.
That general could explain why he was so polite to him. He felt sorry for General Feng and Feng Su'er.
Feng Su'er bit her lip tightly, thinking to just let it go and let that bastard Qin Liang live on, but she didn't expect that he would even plot against the dead!
Taking a deep breath, he said, "I will explain this matter to you after completing the task His Majesty gave me. At this time, let that dog live for a few more days."
Uncle Li was also in a bad mood, but he knew that the overall situation should be the most important thing. He straightened his clothes, patted off the grass dregs on his clothes, and said: "Feng girl, I will go with you. This task cannot be sloppy, it will take a lot Get some people."
"Uncle Li, I'll leave it to you." Feng Su'er said.
There are not many people from General Feng's former army staying in this barracks, but some of them are their nephews.
Uncle Li gathered the crowd, there were about 100 people.These people know the things of their parents, so they are here.So Feng Su'er stated that she needed their help, and readily agreed.
When parting, the general said that he would give Feng Suer a good horse, which he would choose from the few good horses he raised himself.Feng Su'er agreed and chose the best one unceremoniously.
Even so, Uncle Li also pulled his face away from looking at the general, obviously resentful.
The general smiled wryly, "Mrs. Feng, I had some difficulties at that time..."
Feng Su'er said politely: "I can understand, the general doesn't have to worry about it."
Then he pulled the horse away, and Uncle Li followed without looking back.
Watching the two horses go away in a hurry, the general did not leave for a long time, regret flashed in his eyes, and in the end it only turned into a sigh.
