As a result, the order of the county's corvee service came down before the marriage was even started.As the head of the pavilion, Liu Ji escorted a group of people to Lishan Mountain. There was still no news for a month or two. Rumors in the county town began to spread that he had let the conscripts go. Method.

Yun Wei was thinking about this matter, and recently ran into Xiao He and asked a few words. Xiao He was sorting out the scrolls in front of him at the time, and while going to get the next one, he asked her to tell Fan Kui not to worry, this kind of thing is not the first time in Pei County. Back, the officials have long been out of control.

Yun Wei nodded in agreement.A person ran into the restaurant opposite, said something to the diners inside, and the whole street exploded with a bang.

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the head of the Yuyang Service, rebelled in Daze Township.

Nearly a thousand garrison soldiers rose up, killed the generals and attacked Qi County, and the three cities were smashed like a bamboo.Neighboring prefectures and counties responded like clouds, and one after another occupied the city to rebel against Qin.Yun Wei stared blankly at the people on the street chattering, turned around and saw Xiao He stopped writing, and looked at her solemnly.

A report from outside the door came through the hall: "The magistrate of Pei County has arrived—"

Yun Wei's face changed when she heard it, and she was about to avoid it, but Xiao He motioned her to stay.After a while of going back and forth, Peiling had already entered the hall.Xiao He stood up respectfully, the two chatted for a while, and then made an appointment to discuss tomorrow.Yun Wei watched Pei Ling go out, board the car and leave.Xiao He looked at the smoke and dust, and turned to her solemnly.

"Girl," he said, "I heard Brother Fan say that you know martial arts?"

Yun Wei's heart trembled.

Early in the morning of the second day, Xiao He and Cao Shen went to Peiling to discuss matters, and it was already afternoon when they came out.He found Fan Kuai, who was waiting by the side, and told him that he had persuaded Pei Ling to summon the exiles to return and raise troops to respond, and asked him to go out of the city to find Liu Ji.Fan Kui's expression turned happy when he heard this, and he wanted to leave immediately, but Xiao He stopped Yun Wei and said that this girl had to stay in the city.

Yun Wei suddenly looked back at Xiao He, but saw him looking up at the city tower, Pei Ling stood behind the railing and watched Uncle Fan gallop out of the city on horseback.The people around seemed to have heard the news, and they were talking about the fate of ordinary people in the county if Pei County wanted to rebel against Qin.The sky was getting dark, she walked back with Xiao He, the cold air at night became heavier after autumn, Yun Wei turned her head as if feeling something, and saw the city gate in the distance slowly closing.

A cold current suddenly ran through her body.She hurriedly motioned Xiao He to look over there, but the latter stuffed something wrapped in coarse cloth into her hand.Touching the cold and hard curve of the thing under the cloth, Yun Wei's hand shook violently, it was a short knife.

"There is one horse left in the stables in the backyard, and there is a mountain behind the tower, which has never been sparsely populated." Xiao He whispered to her, and from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Pei Ling's figure at the top of the building and entered the room, "You can enter from the back of the building from the mountainside. The officials have already dispersed, and Pei Ling does not practice martial arts. Girl, are you willing to help Uncle Xiao with this?"

The darkness after sunset unfolded inch by inch like a giant curtain that covered the sky, and the night wind blew through the palms of sweaty cold hands, Yun Wei restrained her nervousness, and asked, "Then what about Uncle Xiao?"

"Cao Shen and I went out of the city to look for them," Xiao He said at the same speed, "Pei Ling will definitely make people arrest the two of us, girl don't have to worry about being discovered while hiding in the mountains. As soon as Jie Shi heard the commotion in the city, he immediately attacked."

Yun Wei took a deep breath, clenched his hands tightly and put the dagger back into his sleeve. "Okay." She pursed her lips and saw a trace of relief in Xiao He's eyes, "Uncle Xiao take care."

Before the curfew came down, passers-by on the street suddenly saw an arrow and a roll of cloth shot into the city, and the good-for-nothing read it, but Liu Ji and others who fled reported that the county magistrate had turned his back on his promise, and ordered the city to kill the fugitives. people.When the news spread in Kaipei County, there was an uproar immediately. People were running and planning how to escape, but they heard a scream from inside the city tower. Everyone was shocked and fell silent for a moment. After a while, a person upstairs was pushed out and fell to the ground in front of the door. The county magistrate in official robes was lying on his back, with a dagger pierced into his chest.

There was a bang in the city, and hundreds of people rushed forward to open the city gate, and a group of people outside the gate galloped in, passing through the tide-like crowd to the bottom of the city tower.The leader, Liu Ji, dismounted from his horse and leaped to the top of the building by taking advantage of the cornices outside the building. He resolutely pulled out the long sword at his waist and cut off the flag of the Qin Army on the top of the building with his hand.

In October of the first year of the Second Emperor, Pei County rebelled.

Many surrounding counties are still under the jurisdiction of Qin, and after the news came out, they were gathering troops to defend against it.When Liu Ji was promoted as the Duke of Pei, he didn't even care about showing off, so he went non-stop to win over the princes in Pei County and recruit troops.Fortunately, Liu Ji made a lot of friends on a daily basis and had a good reputation for fighting for righteousness. In addition, Xiao He, Cao Can and others who followed were originally officials in Pei County, and their prestige was still there. Things went smoothly, and three thousand volunteers were recruited in a blink of an eye.

Many of the soldiers summoned had never fought in battle. Cao Shen presided over the drills, and a lot of miscellaneous chores were piled on Xiao He's head.From the day when the incident started, Yun Wei had been borrowed by him indefinitely. Regardless of the number of people or the count of food and wages, it was tedious and trivial. The small officials in several counties were in a hurry, and Xiao He sent them to collect supplies. Yun Wei was left alone to do things with him.

In order to compete with the Qin army in the surrounding counties and counties, she and Xiao He traveled around most of Pei County day and night in a few days.Once Xiao He saw that the blisters on Yun Wei's knuckles had been worn out, and asked her if she would like to rest for a while, Yun Wei waved her hand, she knew that Xiao He dealt with different people every day, and had not rested for more than an hour for three consecutive days .Seeing this, Xiao He sighed, and patted her on the shoulder, watching her get on the horse and tighten the reins deftly, whipping the horse and galloping away.

This trip was to the last family in Peixian County. After raising the food for this family, they could send troops at any time.Xiao He went to the gate and knocked, and after a while a person came out, Xiao He motioned Yun Wei to follow, and walked into the mansion.Yun Wei walked a few steps quickly and was about to cross the threshold, but was stopped by the person who greeted him just now.

"Who are you?" The man looked at the coarse cloth clothes on Yun Wei, with a bit of disdain on his face.

"She is also under Pei Gong's command, and she came to visit with Xiao this time," Xiao He turned his head and said, his tone was not salty, "Your Excellency is worrying too much, it's okay to let her in."

"Yo, is Master Xiao here?" As soon as the words finished, a man's voice came out from the front hall, and Yun Wei couldn't help frowning because of the perverted words.

"Brother Yong, don't come here without any harm." Xiao He bowed, but the visitor just nodded roughly, without looking at him, he looked around and asked, "Where's that kid Liu Ji? Why didn't you see him come to the door in person?"

"Pei Gong has a lot of business recently, so although he misses brother Yong very much, he couldn't come to visit him in person as he wished, so he asked Xiao He to bring a small gift to thank him." Xiao He responded.

The man hummed, and the hesitation on his face weakened a bit.Xiao He had a few polite words with him, and mentioned the matter of food relief, the man waved and ordered his family to lead the way.Xiao He gestured sideways with his eyes, Yun Wei followed the servant, but the man who was chatting with Xiao He suddenly interrupted: "Wait a minute!"

Yun Wei stopped in her tracks.

"Miscellaneous people are not allowed to enter the mansion," the man squinted at her, "Who are you?"

"She is the person who came to help Xiao to collect food and count the amount," Xiao He bowed his head and introduced, "Brother Yong, let her in."

"Count the number?" The man stood up when he heard the words, staring at Yun Wei, "Is there no one under Liu Ji? To send a disabled person to count the food and wages, is he looking down on me, Yong Chi?"

Yun Wei's back stiffened, and Xiao He who was at the side didn't have time to react, Yong Chi had already paced in front of Yun Wei.Yun Wei lowered his head and bowed to avoid his gaze, but Yong Chi refused to let go: "Liu Ji is so proud, he doesn't take me seriously after being a Pei Gong, and even sends a disfigured dumb to insult me .Boy, are you really a dumb person who doesn't say hello to Master Yong when you see you?"

The expression in the eyes covered by the hair on the forehead froze, Yun slightly pursed his lips, and after a while he clasped his fists and knelt down on one knee, with such force that the floor shook: "A villain has no talent, only because he is appreciated by Pei Gong. The foundation of the Yongfu is very large, and the financial support is generous, so there are a lot of supplies, and the villain is lucky to come here to help Master Xiao record, and I hope Senior Yong will not be surprised."

After she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of Xiao He's face changing out of the corner of her eye. Yong Chi stared at her for a while, beckoned the servant to give him the key, and then threw it in front of Yun Wei: "Then you can go."

The luster on the key dazzled her eyes, Yun Wei stared at the ground in front of her for a while, stood up straight and bowed to the bottom, saying firmly, "Senior Xie Yong." Then she leaned over to pick up the key, and handed it back to The servant on the side: "Excuse me, please show me the way."

Yong Chi's face turned pale for a while, his eyes fixed on Yun Wei's back, and he snorted coldly.

The food, salaries and soldiers were ready, and the army went down to Hulingfang and Yuling with lightning speed, and then took advantage of the opponent's breathing to break through Fengyi, and people around Surabaya took refuge in one after another.After recruiting the soldiers, Liu Jixin appointed several generals to garrison the city, and personally led the main force into Xue Zhanqin.

Xue Nai is a large county in the north of Sishui, and if you take it, you can gain a firm foothold.However, the garrison was sufficient, and after a short period of success, the battle situation fell into a stalemate.Food and pay were tight, and Cao Shen was attacked by the Wei army, and the situation gradually turned unfavorable. At this time, news came that Yong Chi was surrendered to Wei.

As soon as the messenger finished speaking, Liu Ji jumped up in anger.There are more than a thousand soldiers guarding Fengyi, and they defected overnight. Under the current situation, it is undoubtedly a severe blow to them.Yun Wei passed by outside the meeting room and heard the news that the army turned to attack Fengyi, and then a loud noise of a broken wooden bowl came from the tent, Liu Ji angrily opened the curtain and walked away, Xiao He followed Stepping out, there was an unconcealable exhaustion on his expression.

"Yong Chi is a son of a bitch, shameless, let the young master catch him and see if he can be chopped into pieces!" Liu Ji's curse came from afar, Yun Wei was a little hesitant, but still walked forward .As soon as Xiao He saw it was her, he handed over the roll of bamboo slips he was holding in his hand: "The chief of the army center has reported to me the number of people, and there is a difference in the number of grain and army villages, and they must be distributed before tomorrow's departure. Girl, you Take this amount to check, and when you are done, come back and tell Uncle Xiao, I will take someone to share it tomorrow morning."

Choking on what he wanted to say, Yun Wei paused, and silently took the bamboo slips.

The harvest was unfavorable, and the weather suddenly became cold after winter, and many people in the army were caught by the wind and cold.Seeing that if he persisted in attacking Feng, he would only get himself into trouble, Liu Ji finally decided to return to Junpei County, and started running around to borrow troops when his health improved.

A batch of medicine for treating wind and cold was collected, and Yun Wei began to make fire and decoct medicine to distribute, so many people knew that there was a girl with a scar on her face who followed Pei Gong and Master Xiao.On weekdays, the little officials who worked for Xiao He liked to talk, so rumors spread among the army, saying that the ugly girl offended him when she followed Xiao He to visit Yong Chi, and Yong Chi rebelled against Pei Gong because of her grudge.Yun Wei accidentally heard a few words, just bowed his head and remained silent.

"What you said is true?" Just as he was sorting out the military supplies that had been distributed, whispers came from outside the window.

The pen in Yun Wei's hand paused.Now they have borrowed the original place of Peiling to deal with affairs. It is estimated that the two met in between busy work, and they started chatting.

"Li Si was there that day. He saw it with his own eyes, so it can't be true." Another person said, "General Yongchi thinks that girl is a cripple, and thinks that the lord deliberately humiliated her, so he is very angry."

"Hey, you said that it's not good to let someone go to raise the army rations. Why did you let that ugly girl go?"

"Isn't it? Just looking at her like that is unlucky. General Yong was from a prominent family before, so how can I bear this tone?"

"I don't know why my lord has taken a fancy to her. A person like her who has no use other than counting people is free to stay in the army. What's the use of coming?"

"I think it's just like her, it's unlucky to let her do anything..."

The sound that came into my ear gradually became quieter, and the words became more harsh, but suddenly a deep voice came from behind: "Have you remembered the amount of charcoal fire clothing materials distributed in the army?"

Yun Wei's shoulders trembled violently, Xiao He reached behind her and picked up the bamboo slips on the table, unfolded them and looked at them.The two commentators outside the window didn't dare to say anything when they heard Xiao He's coming, Yun Wei was stunned, looked back to see that he was still reading, got up and said in a low voice: "There are still two lines missing..."

"That's right, you've really worked hard for me these past few days." Xiao He interrupted her, put the bamboo slips back into her hand with a snap, and before she could reply, he said calmly to the window, "You two are going to the meeting hall. Bring tea to Peigong?"

"Ah, yes..." The two people outside were obviously frightened and rushed to respond.

"That's just right," Xiao He opened the window, handed a stack of documents to them, and pointed to a room at the back of the building, "These are the counts of soldiers and soldiers, please pass them on to General Cao for me. As for the delivery of tea, girl, you can do it for me."

"This..." The two were dumbfounded, staring at Xiao He, hesitant to speak, but the latter continued without a pause, "The military camp is to the west of the building, and you can go back to the camp after delivering the things. Girl," turning to Yun Wei, "I'm going to trouble you again."

"It's okay..." Yun Wei was a little embarrassed, walked out of the room with her head down and took the pot of tea.One of them finally couldn't help but opened his mouth: "Master Xiao, this tea is what the lord wants—"

"Girl, go quickly." Xiao He said calmly, "Don't make Peigong wait too long."

The man was choked and stopped talking.In response, Yun Wei quickened her pace and walked towards the chamber.Along the way, she felt someone behind her staring at her in amazement, and after turning a corner, such gaze was finally blocked.Yun Wei pursed her lips tightly, she knew that Xiao He was trying to defend her, but she really couldn't turn a deaf ear to what those people said.

"...Xue County is difficult to attack, and Fengyi is occupied by the Wei army. The current situation is really tricky. The only way now seems to be to go southwest." Liu Ji's sigh floated from the house, and it became more and more serious as she approached. clear.

"What brother Liu said is very true. Qin's army attacked eastward, and Liang also thought that he should avoid the edge and take Dang." Another person in the room responded.

With a loud bang, the teapot shattered on the ground.

The author has something to say: (some digressions) According to the narration in Shiji, Liu Ji was already 48 years old when he raised his army, but in Qin Shimingyue, it is obvious that Liu Ji was far from that age. In order to compress the time span here, according to Qin The settings in Shi Mingyue are gone, otherwise if you marry a wife at the age of 48... I feel sorry for Liu Ji
