With Zhang Xiaoping as his helper and guide, Li Qiniang quickly found the big yard that the young man mentioned.

The one standing at the door was not the yamen runners, but the soldiers of Yishui'er.

Li Qiniang had seen Duke Ding's army on the way to Beijing. These soldiers were dressed the same as those in the army, but their helmets were bright and bright, clean and tidy, and more grand.

The guardian of the gate obviously had to explain. He looked up and down at the two people and pointed at Li Qiniang: "Women come in, men stay."

Zhang Xiaoping hurriedly said, "June, we are together. The burden is too heavy and my aunt can't carry it."

"Stop talking nonsense, what's said is women, not men." The gatekeeper glared at Zhang Xiaoping angrily.

Li Qiniang hurriedly smiled: "I'll go in, please help Jun Ye point me a way."

As he said that, Li Qiniang nodded at Zhang Xiaoping and smiled apologetically. Zhang Xiaoping still wanted to speak. Seeing the gatekeeper looking at him fiercely, Zhang Xiaoping shrank for a moment and swallowed up what he wanted to say.

Li Qiniang took on the load and followed a soldier through the side door.

The soldier took her into the second yard and pointed to the front: "Just over there, come out quickly after delivery, don't run around, be careful to hit the board."

Li Qiniang thanked her and walked inside with a load shaking.

There were soldiers standing guard outside the hall. When they saw Li Qiniang, they asked, "Woman?"

Li Qiniang was so amused and laughed: "Yes, yes, I'm the one who delivers food. Go to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and the Jun Ye will do it for a convenience."

"Well, go in." The soldier used his chin to slim his penis, and someone had already explained it.

Li Qiniang didn't expect that in this yard that looked smaller than the county government, there were four yamen: the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Justice, the Zongren Mansion and the Five Army Governor's Office.

Among them, the Governor's Office of the Five Army occupied the largest courtyard. There was a sign with the word "Zhongjun" hanging in front of the main hall, and there were wings on the east and west sides.

"Left Army, Right Army" and "Fore Army, Back Army".

Li Qiniang didn't know which one to enter, but a person came out of the main hall. The man was wearing an official uniform and had a strong figure. Li Qiniang was about to ask, but the man said "Huh" first.

"You are not that...who is your last name, the one who uses a kitchen knife to chop people."

Li Qiniang was stunned and immediately recognized the person. She put down her burden and bowed her knees: "The civilian woman has seen the general."

Hao Chong looked at the woman in front of him curiously: "You are here to look for me? Is there something wrong? What's the matter? Is it murdered again? Someone bullied your daughter? Why didn't you see your daughter? Have you recovered from the illness?"

Li Qiniang was a little confused by Hao Chong's series of questions. She didn't know which one to answer first, and a familiar voice came from beside her: "Food delivery, come here!"

Li Qiniang turned her head and was the young man who had gone to the shop to order food. She was blessed to Hao Chong again: "The little woman is here to deliver food."

The young man also saw Hao Chong and walked over quickly, respectfully: "General Hao, this is a food delivery to us, and I'm disturbing you."

Hao Chong was even more curious. He sniffed, no wonder he smelled the fragrance of the food. It turned out to be a delivery.

Perhaps it was an instinctive reaction, Hao Chong's stomach started to rumble, and the sound was so loud that Li Qiniang and the young man could hear it.

The young man was a little embarrassed: "...General Hao, haven't you eaten yet?"

"Yeah." Hao Chong wanted to curse. If I had used food, my stomach would still scream? Do you think my stomach is an old cow that plows the land, and you have to moo if you have anything to do or not?

Whose baby is this? It would be fine if you haven't been on the battlefield, but you won't say anything. If I know who you are, I will not scold him to death.

The young man winked at Li Qiniang and said to Hao Chong: "We have ordered too much food. I'll give you a bowl. This shop is newly opened. How delicious you taste. If you think it's good, let them deliver it tomorrow."

Li Qiniang quickly bent down, lifted the white floral cloth covered with the basket, and brought out a bowl of braised pork rice bowl.

The young man's mouth twitched. This woman is so generous. Can't you serve mushroom chicken slices?

"No, I'll take two more bowls, no, three bowls, don't take those with mushrooms, you need this, right!"

Hao Chong personally brought two large bowls of braised pork with rice and walked in. The two large sea bowls were in his hands.

Li Qiniang looked at the young man, and the young man waved at her helplessly. Li Qiniang pulled out the tray from the basket, put two large bowls of braised pork rice bowl on it, picked it up and walked forward a few steps, turned around and said to the young man, "There are six bowls left, you can eat it first, I'll give it to you again when I go back. By the way, there are still a few buns in the basket, which is not a lot of money. I sold it out when you came yesterday, and I'll bring it to you today."

The helplessness on the young man's face disappeared. He pointed to the main house with the "Zhongjun" sign hanging, and lowered his voice and reminded him: "Be careful when you go in, the Duke of the State is inside."

Li Qiniang felt a little nervous and didn't dare to neglect her. She walked in quickly.

As soon as she stepped into the threshold, Hao Chong came out and said loudly when he saw her, "So hesitated, give it to me."

Qi Wei sat behind the desk, looking at the three big bowls of rice in front of Hao Chong at the low table opposite, and then looked at the bowl in front of him.

Coarse porcelain bowl.

"This is not sent to the mansion."

"No, this was ordered by the group of kids from the Houjun Mansion. I snatched a few bowls. Try it, eat it while it's hot, I can't eat it even if you don't move your chopsticks."

Hao Chong took a sip of the smell of meat and looked at Qi Fu's hands.

Qi Wei laughed and picked up the chopsticks: "Let's have a meal."

Hao Chong went to the military camp outside the city to train soldiers early in the morning, and must have been hungry now.

The Empress Dowager gave the Duke's Mansion. Although it was not half as big as in the old capital, he seemed too big by his bare body. He asked Hao Chong and several other generals to come and live with him. The house in the new capital was not easy to buy if it was rich. They either did not bring their families or had no families. Everyone lived together, saving trouble and money.

The manager and the servants are new, and with the female relatives who have no supervisor, everything else is reasonable, it is just this meal... it is hard to describe in one word.

Those who lead troops to fight eat quickly, and Hao Chong is hungry, faster than usual.

Before Qi Wei finished a bowl of rice, Hao Chong's second bowl had already reached the bottom.

He exhaled with satisfaction, and the feeling of filling his stomach was so good, although it was only half full.

"By the way, Duke, who are you here to deliver the meal?"

Qi Wei never ate and slept until he ate all the food in the bowl. He put down his chopsticks, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and then said, "Who?"

Hao Chong smiled and said, "You can't guess at all. It's the woman we met on the road, the fierce one, who cut people with a knife. You asked me to send them back. Do you still remember?"

Qi Wei's mind saw the woman's face reddened by the flames, and he frowned slightly: "You said the mother and daughter are here to deliver the meal?"

"I'm just a mother, but I didn't see her daughter. She ordered it from the kids from the Houjun Army. She gave it to me. Oh, look at how difficult it is these days. Oh, I finally came to the capital and showed up in public. A woman's house carried a big burden. The kids from the Houjun Army were nothing. If women asked her to deliver food, what kind of man do you think?"

Hao Chong looked at the last bowl of rice in front of him and swallowed: "Dude, have you eaten this bowl?"

Qi Wei looked at Hao Chong who was staring at the bowl of rice through the misty water vapor: "You eat it, wash the dishes and chopsticks after you finish eating, and send them back to them."

Hao Chong was overjoyed and picked up the chopsticks and was about to start eating when he heard Qi ask quietly: "Have you paid for the meal?"
