Chapter 303: Unraveling

"There are only so many things that a person can do in a lifetime, and you want to finish everyone's work alone, do you think it's possible?"

In the main hall of the Wei Mansion, Xu Yue put a blanket on Wei Lai, and said with some unhappiness in his mouth.

The night was already dark, and after Wei Lai came back from Weishui, he had to be busy until late at night every day, and five days in a row had passed, and there was no stop.

A few days ago, Xu Yue sent Wei Lai a supper at the end of the day, and quietly accompanied Wei Lai, until today, she finally couldn't hold back the words in her heart, and she was announcing it in her mouth.

Wei Lai raised his head and glanced at Xu Yue apologetically, and said, "Coordinate the border money and grain affairs and go to sleep, if Yue'er is sleepy, go back to rest first." ”

"Border money and grain?" Xu Yue glanced at the folds in Wei Lai's hand when he heard this, and said angrily: "If you want to coordinate the money and grain on the border, you must first find out the border garrison personnel, Guzhou and Kuanzhou have only been included in Wei, how much do you know about their military, don't you have to look at them one by one." ”

"And the soldiers and horses in the land of Sanzhou, plus the newly recruited soldiers and horses want to open the treasury from Ningzhou, it is obviously not enough, so you have to allocate it from the treasury of Guzhou Kuanzhou. ”

"But Wei Ting was first established, although Kuanzhou and Guzhou were attached, but the people's hearts were unstable, you transferred grain money from the land of Erzhou, don't you have to first understand the situation of all the scholars in Erzhou, and you are peeling off the cocoons and clearing them one by one, this comes and goes, I'm afraid that when it comes to tomorrow, you won't be able to sleep. ”

The more Xu Yue spoke, the more angry he became, and there was no lack of harsh criticism of Wei Lai in his tone.

Wei Lai knew that Xu Yue's mind was astute, and he could be deceived with a few words, so he could only look embarrassed and said: "Yue'er knows so much, I thought it was ......"

"You still think I've been deceived by you like this, right?" Xu Yue said angrily.

Wei Lai's face became more and more embarrassed, and after thinking about it, he could only say: "I have now reached the Seven Realms, and my cultivation strength is not lower than that of the Holy Realm, that is, I will not ......sleep for seven or eight days."

"Then don't sleep for the rest of your life!" Xu Yue turned around angrily, and after dropping such a sentence, he turned around and walked out of the palace gate.

Wei Lai smiled wryly, but he didn't chase him out after all.

There are still many things in front of him, and he can't afford to have a little rest after all.

The Great Chu soldiers have been on the road yesterday, and they received news yesterday that the Chu army stationed on the edge of Weishui has reached a million people, but the speed of the army mobilization still does not mean to stop, it seems that Li Chengfeng has solved the countries in the east, and has also stabilized the forces of all parties, and now it seems that he intends to mobilize all his forces to bite off the last few difficult bones in the north.

The battle between Weishui and Da Chu was about to begin, and Wei Lai also sent an apostle to Guirong to negotiate with Yu Nanjun, but Yu Nanjun had no intention of responding, and it seemed that he did not intend to unite with Wei Di Weishui. One of the two cultivators is unfathomable, and the other has the support of the Western Realm, and he can't get their support, although it is a pity for Wei Lai, he didn't pin his hopes on the two, but he won't be disrupted.

It's just that the big war is imminent, and when Wei Lai faces the people of Weidi, although he has always looked like he is planning everything, he is really anxious in his heart, and he can only do everything as best as possible every day, so as to relieve the anxiety in his heart a little.

Thinking of this, Wei Lai sighed again, suppressed the thoughts that had just sprung up in his heart one by one, and then looked down at the fold in his hand again, and pounced on it again.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour has passed, just like Xu Yue said, this matter of mobilizing money and food sounds simple, but in practice it is extremely complicated, and it is necessary to take into account the reactions of all parties and coordinate the overall situation. Most of the courtiers in Wei are soldiers of the military department, and they can be said to be the best group of people in the north for this march and war training of soldiers and horses.

Although Kuanzhou and Guzhou Wei Lai can rely on the suppression in the house to force the various warriors to hand over money and grain, but once the battle is together, the front will inevitably fall into a bitter battle, and Wei Lai will suddenly have a fire in the rear not far away, even if it is just a little riot, a few days of food and grass are enough to change the war in front. After all, with the strength of the enemy in the face of such a good place, the slightest mistake may become a flaw in the opponent's grasp, so that it will be crushed with one blow.

Therefore, Wei Lai must consider all aspects of the matter thoroughly, in order to maintain stability for a long time in the future.

But after half an hour, Wei Lai peeled off the cocoon, and even used the method of fitting heaven and earth to make his mind flow a lot faster, but Rao was like this, and still didn't think of a complete strategy.

He secretly felt that his head was a little big, and he secretly thought in his heart that he had to recruit some civil officials who were good at this from all over the three states, huh...... The thousands of disciples brought by the Qingying Academy are still settling in Ningzhou, and Wei Lai is thinking about whether to invite Qin Xiang into the mansion and use what the Qingying Academy has learned to govern these things, which is at least a hundred times stronger than Wei Lai. Compared with these things, Wei Lai is still more willing to participate in the defense of Weishui, after all, those things are what he is good at.

Thinking of this, Wei Lai put down the fold in his hand, he reached out and rubbed his temples, trying to dye himself to recover a little from the long period of mental fatigue.

"Didn't Your Majesty say that you are strong and cultivated, and it doesn't matter if you don't sleep for a few days and nights?" And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, Wei Lai was stunned, and when he looked up, he saw Xu Yue walking in with a bowl of soup with a straight face.

Wei Lai knew that she was a knife-mouthed tofu heart, where would he be angry with her, and said with a smile: "Yue'er's craftsmanship is good, I can smell the fragrance for several miles." ”

Xu Yue didn't know that Wei Lai was deliberately praising her so that she could be angry. Even if I knew that the aroma of those miles was a lie, it was still extremely useful.

However, although most of the anger in his heart disappeared, his face seemed to be cold, and he didn't speak, but just put the bowl of soup in front of Wei Lai's desk.

Wei Lai instructed, he hurriedly picked up the broth, sniffed it, and said with a look of intoxication: "Fragrant!

"Yue'er's craftsmanship is that the great Chu of the Xiangyu Building in the past couldn't beat it. ”

As he spoke, he looked impatient, and took a sip, although the soup was still a little hot, but in order to please Xu Yue, Wei Lai gritted his teeth and drank it all.

Seeing this, Xu Yue was suddenly a little anxious, and hurriedly snatched the porcelain bowl from Wei Lai's hand, but Wei Lai had already taken the first step to drink up the soup in the bowl.

Xu Yue saw that the porcelain bowl was empty, and immediately scolded: "Are you stupid to be the emperor?

In fact, this soup is only slightly scalded, far from being able to hurt people, not to mention Wei Lai's cultivation, if he really wants to, even the hot molten iron can't help him, in the end, it's just Xu Yue's concern.

Wei Lai said in a timely manner: "It's not hot! Yue'er made it at just the right temperature." ”

"Phew!" Xu Yue scolded angrily: "No matter how good the soup is, it has to be boiled first, how can there be a just right statement, you have to think clearly about praising people and then boasting, right?"

Wei Lai heard this, but he could see that he didn't regain his anger at a moment, he just smiled faintly and looked at Xu Yue directly, but he didn't say much.

Xu Yue was also made angry by Wei Lai's almost scoundrel attitude, so he could only restrain his cold face, glanced at Wei Lai with resentment, sat down in Wei Lai's arms with a soft body, put his head on his chest, and said: "I know that you have worries in your heart, husband, but the more this time, you can't mess with yourself." ”

"You are the king of Wei and the backbone of the entire Wei Court, if you panic, then the Wei Court will be finished, do you understand?"

Wei Lai stretched out his hand to protect Xu Yue, sniffing the faint aroma from her on the tip of his nose, and most of the boredom in his heart dissipated unconsciously.

He said softly: "Things in this world are easier said than done, the enemy is current, in all fairness, Da Chu and the eastern realm behind it are to our Wei and Weishui, that is the scorching sun to the fireflies, and it is said that the mantis arm is a car, and it is all to lift yourself." As soon as this battle started, I don't know how many people would die, and those armor soldiers sent to the front line and the water tribe led by the predecessors of Weishui Aoyang said that they were going to fight a decisive battle with Da Chu, but they were actually sent to death. ”

"Use your own life to drag Da Chu, that's all. ”

"Even now, we have more than ten Saint Realm powerhouses, but I still don't see the slightest chance of winning. ”

Wei Lai said this, his eyes looked forward in a trance, the person in his arms raised his head when he heard the words, and looked at Wei Lai, from the young man's eyes, she saw confusion, saw worry, and also saw a touch that she would never show in the other party's eyes in the past...... Despair.

"If this is just me doing it myself, no matter what the other party is, even if it is the so-called Heavenly Dao, I will not hesitate at all, but not now

It's the same. ”

"Just like Yue'er, you said it yourself, now I am the king of Weidi, everyone points to me, they want me to lead them to live, and one of my decisions may determine the life and death of thousands of people......"

"I can't be afraid, how can I not be afraid of ......"

Today's Wei Lai can probably only show his truest thoughts in his heart when facing Xu Yue, and in addition, he has to make a calm appearance in the face of anyone else.

Such a disguise collided with the inner torment, making Wei Lai physically and mentally exhausted.

Xu Yue naturally understood Wei Lai's thoughts, and she looked at Wei Lai in front of her with some distress.

She knew very well that the other party was actually just a nineteen-year-old boy, at this age, most of them were still half-grown children in the family, with parents to take care of them, and someone to guide them, but now Wei Lai had to take on the responsibility of the entire Wei land, and even related to the survival of the northern territory.

That kind of burden is enough to oppress anyone to breathe.

She stretched out her hand and stroked Wei Lai's cheek, and after hesitating for a while, she suddenly asked, "Husband, have you ever thought about the consequences of surrendering to Da Chu." ”

This question made Wei Lai stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly: "I have no interest in the so-called authority at all, compared to the emperor of the Wei land now, I would rather be a farmer with idle clouds and wild cranes, plant two or three fields, and take my children to the river to fish in my spare time, or raise one or two cats and dogs, just ......"

"If Da Chu really wants to unify the northern territory as Li Chengfeng said, so that the northern border will not suffer from war from now on, why should I fight against it. ”

"The kings of this world come and go, I don't care who is the emperor, it's just that the territory of Great Chu has long been eroded by the power of the spirits, and the purpose behind them is definitely not to unify the northern border, but to make the northern border into a scorched earth with the same hardships as the southern Xinjiang......"

"I can't see anything like that. ”

Hearing Wei Lai's sigh, Xu Yue asked again quietly: "After being devoured by the power of the spirit robbery, even if it is a means like Yu Nanjun, it will make the recipient of the law become a machine that only knows how to obey people's orders, which in a sense, is more vicious than the dust cutting method of the Dust Cutting Palace. Not to mention that the power of the calamity spirit is in danger of getting out of control at any time, and once this happens, the Dharma can only turn into a monster that only knows how to devour and kill, such a person, does the husband think he can still be regarded as alive?"

Wei Lai glanced at Xu Yue a little strangely when he heard this, and said: "Yue'er said this, a person can't even control who he is and what he wants to do, from his mind to his memory is distorted, and he is controlled by people, how can he be considered alive?"

"Does that husband think that people want to die?" Xu Yue asked again.

Wei Lai said: "At the beginning, Yu Nanjun said that every living being has the instinct to live, even if Meng Hangju, who was cut off by the method of cutting off all the dust, still has such an obsession embedded in the depths of the soul, so he will be in line with the way of heaven, in order to let heaven and earth give birth to a touch of good life from now on, who in this world does not want to live?"

"What else does that husband have to worry about?" Xu Yue said again.

Wei Lai was stunned for a moment, looked at Xu Yue puzzled, and asked, "Yue'er, what does this mean?"

Xu Yue smiled, stood up from Wei Lai's body, she looked straight at Wei and said, "What the husband wants to do is to take all of us to fight against Da Chu. ”

"And the purpose of fighting against Da Chu is not out of selfishness, but to let the people of Wei Land live. ”

"Maybe there are indeed a group of people in Wei who don't understand what kind of disaster Great Chu will bring, so they are cowardly before the big war comes, and even criticize the husband for being reckless. ”

"But the husband understands, the concubine understands, everything we do is for everyone to be able to live as a 'human', I have heard Jiangzhou Mu say in the past, for the superior, you have to see what mortals can't see, what mortals can't think, and what mortals can't blame. ”

"The husband is above board, we do our best to obey the destiny of heaven, and do our best to fight to the end, no matter whether it is success or failure, as long as we have a clear conscience, why should the husband bother himself?"

"Yue'er understands her husband, Daren and they also understand your husband, and the people of Weidi will also understand your husband in the end!"

"So, husband, don't be afraid! We believe in you, just let it go!"
