The daily life of a talented young husband who travels through a book and suffers from cruelty

Chapter 141
Pei Zhiqi pulled the lady back into his arms, let her lie down on her chest, then covered the quilt again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, lady, I can think of it, as Prince Rong's right-hand man, Mr. Gao can definitely think of it." , If he didn't have this ability, how could Prince Rong let him come to deal with the Japanese insurrection? It's just that, the officials in the provincial capital fled and arrested, and the provincial capital would inevitably be chaotic for a month , I only hope that General Gao can stay here until the court sends new officials or the governor, otherwise the chaos in the city will make the people suffer again."

Li Xiaodao thoughtfully said: "Master Shen from the prefecture's office came to look for Mr. Xiang today, did he just want to talk to Mr. Xiang about these things?"

Pei Zhiqi smiled and shook his head: "When I received the news that cavalrymen were about to arrive in Anzhou, the master already knew the follow-up matters, and I came to see me today just to find out what I see."

Li Xiaodao smiled and said, "So he pretended not to know?"

Pei Zhi wondered: "Master Shen is talented and has a heavy heart, I don't know why he would assist such an Anzhou shepherd."

Xianggong is also a talented person, but it was just a trick of fate. Because of the pursuit of his enemies, he couldn't go to Beijing to rush for the exam. He could only take the exam to be a squire near his hometown. When he thought of this, Li Xiaodao panicked in his heart.

When I just passed through the book, I swore that I would fight with the villain who killed my husband in the original book, but now it’s been a few months, and I don’t know who to fight with, and I got nothing but a talented young husband.

And what Xianggong wants now is that the family members are safe. If there is a clue in the future, should he continue the investigation at the risk of his life?
Li Xiaodao felt that his dizzy and aching head was even more painful now.

Forget it, today is New Year's Eve, let's have a relaxing chat with my husband.

"Sanggong, I wonder what brother and the others are doing now?" Li Xiaodao changed the subject.

Pei Zhiqi caressed the lady's black hair with his finger, and replied with a smile: "Just now I went to the garden, and stopped by to see everyone. They lit a fire in the yard and are jumping into it."

Fire jumping on New Year's Eve is a custom in the coastal areas of southeast province, and Li Xiaodao really wanted to participate, but unfortunately at this time he was light-headed, weak and coughing.

"Sounds very interesting..." Li Xiaodao regretted, but she had heard that only men could participate in the fire jump, so even if she was in good health at this time, she couldn't jump.

"We're back in the provincial capital, let's light a small fire in the yard," Pei Zhiqi said softly.

Li Xiaodao said happily: "Good!"

After talking about one topic, Li Xiaodao thought about the next one.

"Master, please tell me about the situation in Jingde Mountain these days."

"Okay," Pei Zhiqi replied.

Late at night in the side room of the state government office, the two cuddled together, and Pei Zhiqi slowly told his wife what happened in Jingde Mountain after the Japanese invasion.

The oil lamp in the house was burning brightly, and there was no wind, and the flame burned steadily.

The fire in the charcoal brazier is also very strong, driving away the moisture in the house and making the whole house warm.

Pei Zhiqi sat on the head of the bed, his wife was lying on his chest, covered tightly by the quilt, chatting and chatting, the lady started to yawn.

"Msg-gong...does the lamp have to be lit all the time on New Year's Eve tonight, and you can't sleep? You have to watch the year...cough cough..."

"Go to bed if you're sleepy, I'll help you keep the year old." Pei Zhiqi gently patted the back of the lady through the quilt according to rhythm, coaxing her to sleep.

After a while, the sound of the woman's even breathing came from her arms, and she seemed to have fallen asleep.

Pei Zhiqi gently took off the cloth scarf around the lady's face, seeing her sleeping peacefully, Pei Zhiqi smiled slightly.

"Good night, lady," he said in a very soft voice.

After a while, the New Year's bell rang.

One hundred and eight New Year's bells did not wake up the sleeping lady.

Sure enough, as Pei Zhiqi said, Gaomeng's cavalry arrived at the provincial capital on New Year's Eve, but they couldn't enter the city gate.

Cavalry marches fast and has a natural advantage over infantry, but it is not a good choice for siege.

Gao Meng tried first, if the people in the city were stupid, then he could save trouble and effort to catch them, so he didn't come up with a testimony at the beginning that he came to the provincial capital to catch the people who were in charge of the Japanese. The secret order stated that he was ordered to come to suppress the Japanese, but the commander of the southeastern province delayed the time on the grounds that the Japanese pirates had been blocked in the city and could not open the door to prevent the Japanese pirates from escaping.

It doesn't look stupid.

Gao Meng had no choice but to come up with testimony and asked the generals guarding the city to pass on a message to the adults in the city. He had their testimony of their communication, so he opened the door quickly or he would be punished for resisting the order.

At this time, the commander of Du ordered the army to forge the imperial decree and Prince Rong's secret order, claiming to go into the city to suppress the Japanese, but actually rebelled, and wanted to occupy the southeast provincial capital, but still refused to open the door.

Gao Meng seemed to be in no hurry and let the other party delay, but after four or five days, the situation suddenly changed.

A young general who guards the gate in the provincial capital is well aware of what Commander Du and several other adults have done to communicate with the Japanese.

Gao Meng led the cavalry into the provincial capital, only to find that the Japanese pirates in the city had already fled. The soldiers stationed in the provincial capital did not dare to resist seeing the imperial decree.

Gao Meng directly took people to the provincial government to arrest them. Except for a few young men who had no time to escape, a few big fish had already fled.

Gao Meng was not in a hurry. After taking over the provincial government office, apart from handling the daily affairs of the army, he did not send troops to hunt him down. He only sent cavalry and some garrison troops in the provincial capital to patrol the coast every day.

Three or four days later, ten warships suddenly floated on the sea, and the patrolling soldiers saw the flags, and they turned out to be the naval fleet of Jinsha Prefecture, south of the provincial capital.

After the Jinsha State Navy docked, not only the soldiers of the Jinsha State Navy got off the ship, but also the escaped Japanese pirates who were captured and many officials from the southeastern provincial capital.

The lieutenant general asked Gao Zongbing how he caught these people, and Gao Meng laughed.

"The people I let go, don't know where to catch them? If these officials escaped from the sea to find Japanese pirates, you expect them to survive in the vast sea by themselves? The navy has been waiting at sea for a long time."

As for how the Jinsha State Navy was mobilized, Gao Meng said that this was beyond his ability, and naturally it was arranged by noble people.

In the past ten days or so, Gaomeng has cleared out the Japanese pirates in the provincial capital and arrested all the Japanese criminals.

On the morning of the th day of the first lunar month, Gao Meng led some cavalry back to Anzhou from the provincial capital, telling the people along the way that the provincial capital was safe and everyone could return home.

On the th day of the first lunar month, Li Xiaodao's wind and cold had almost recovered, except for a slight cough. My brother said that the cough did not get better so quickly and he needed to be recuperated slowly.

This afternoon, Xianggong went to drink tea with Master Shen, and Li Xiaodao stayed alone in the room to pack his things. They also received the news that they could go home, and the whole family planned to leave for the provincial capital tomorrow.

"It's really great! The illness is cured, and I can go home." Li Xiaodao was happy while folding his clothes.

"Li Xiaodao!" Suddenly she heard someone shouting her name outside the door.

This voice is a bit familiar, could it be...?
