343 Reunion
"There is the size of heaven and earth, so I feel that all things are small. There are all things small, so I feel that the world is big. Young Master Yan Jiu said slowly.
Whether this sentence quoted from "Hug Puzi" only has a superficial meaning or is secretly playing something, probably only Yan Zike can hear it.
"The heart is generous, and there is no tolerance. Yan Zike smiled, dropped these six words and stopped talking to Young Master Yan Jiu, and finally looked at Yan Qi's face, "Are you happy?"
Isn't it happy to get out of the wall fence and return to the vast world?
"Happy. Yan Qi nodded.
Yan Zike didn't have anything else to say, handed the little eleven in his hand to the nurse, and said to everyone: "Let's play." Then he got up and went back to his study.
Crowd: "......"
Well, parents have a lot of work to do.
Everyone didn't sit still, and ran to the garden generously, Xiao Eleven was the most excited, and while struggling to ask Yan Qi to hug her, he gestured to show her the way: "Bah! Bah! Oh oh oh oh ......"
"You can't go there, it's a latrine. Yan Qi took him over, took him along the verandah to enjoy the scenery, and asked Cui Xi by the way, "What did you say to the family?"
"I just said that Dr. Gao introduced me to a Lang Zhong in the east, and he had a lot of experience in treating my disease. Cui Xi said with a smile.
“…… Have you made a confession with Doctor Gao? Don't look back to your uncle to ask for another goof. "Yan Qi sweats.
"It's skewered. Cui Xi said, "Even if I sent the letter back, I didn't send it home directly, and I asked Dr. Gao to help me transfer." "If you send a letter, you have to stamp the local stamp, and if you send it home directly, you will see that it is a stamp from the north of the country, and it will naturally be a goof.
"When did you have such an iron relationship with Doctor Gao?" Yan Qi was curious.
Cui Xi said with a smile: "I gave him a thin-bladed knife, which can be used for medical rescue." ”
Cui Xi's knives are extremely sharp and can be broken by blowing, and they are best used as scalpels.
"You're really good at giving gifts. Yan Qi praised him, and then asked Xiao Chen, "Did Lord Xiao urge you to go back?"
"Nope. Xiao Chen said.
"You answered so quickly, you were prepared, right?" Yan Qidao.
Xiao Chen: "......" was guessed by her.
Fortunately, she didn't ask any more questions, and stood on the verandah with Xiao Shiyi in her arms to watch the red leaves of the maple tree falling from the branches into the pond water surface leisurely, Xiao Shiyi stretched out a finger and pointed to the fallen leaves on the pond in a daze: "Huh?"
"Yes, it's already Mid-Autumn Festival, and the leaves are about to fall. "Yan Qidao.
Mid-Autumn Festival, from wearing to the present, the whole family has not spent a reunion festival together, even this time can't, Yan Zichen is still blocking Yao Lida outside the city, it is a critical time, no matter what, it is impossible to come back.
"Giggle......" Xiao Eleven didn't know what he was amused at, turned his head and raised his hand to touch Yan Qi's face.
A few people walked around the garden and chatted, and soon it was noon, and they had been staying in front of the same branch of their old five branches ran over to invite each other, everyone moved to the front hall, and saw that Yan Zike was already waiting there, beckoning everyone to sit down, even adults with children, not a lot of people, a meal was eaten quietly, Yan Qi and the nurse went to the back room to coax Xiao Eleven to sleep, Yan Zike called Yan Jiu Young Master to the study to talk, leaving Xiao Chen and Cui Xi to sit opposite each other in the hall to drink tea.
When Xiao Shiyi woke up, it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and seeing Yan Zike entangled in business, Yan Qi and the others also resigned and returned to Yan's house, Yan Qi was learning to make moon cakes with his own hands with the cooks in the kitchen, and saw Young Master Yan Jiu standing slowly outside the window of the room with his sleeves and looking at her.
"Something to say?" Yan Qi walked out with a hand full of flour, his sleeves rolled up on his elbows, revealing two white and slippery forearms.
"Uncle asked me if I would like to follow him. Young Master Yan Jiu lowered his eyes.
"What do you mean?" Yan Qi almost didn't have any doubts, and she didn't seem to have to think about what Yan Zike meant.
Yan Zike came to Saibei, of course, to preside over the work of demolishing and rebuilding the administrative affairs of Saibei after the eradication of Yao Lida, and the administrative management of a region is too broad and too complicated, and the aspects involved are too broad and too deep, such as confidentiality, economy, business, taxation, statistics, education, household registration, customs, public security, police affairs, security, criminal, transportation, construction, production, health, and epidemic prevention...... And so on and so forth, all of which must be re-planned, rebuilt, regulated, and operated.
At this time, letting Young Master Yan Jiu follow him is tantamount to providing Young Master Yan Jiu with a once-in-a-lifetime excellent learning opportunity, this kind of administrative construction and management that is almost equivalent to starting from scratch is definitely not a common thing, even those old officials who have been local officials all their lives may not have such experience and experience.
This is like an intern student in a medical school who can directly enter the operating room to observe various surgical procedures, and the chief surgeon is a national-level doctor.
And in fact, there will not be many people who can take care of their children and nephews at such a time, after all, this is not a direct takeover of a mature and stable administrative region like a normal transfer, let alone a child's play for you to try and play casually, in exchange for other officials, you will probably only be sincerely afraid to do your job wholeheartedly, where dare to teach your nephew by the way as Yan Zike.
"I'll go over tomorrow," Young Master Yan Jiu had already made up his mind, "I'm probably going to live there in the future, and if I go over, Cui Xi and Xiao Chen won't be able to live at home anymore." "Without a male host at home, it will be difficult for the two male guests to live anymore.
"Cheng, let the two of them follow you too, the place is big, and the servants are rolling on the ground with open arms. "Yan Qidao.
"......" Young Master Yan Jiu glanced at her with a smile, "Aren't you going over?"
"I have to serve Little Eleven at home. Yan Qidao, "Don't worry, I'll go over to see you often, don't miss me too much." ”
Young Master Yan Jiu gave her a roll of her eyes and slowly went back to the room.
The moon cakes made by Yan Qi himself were baked before dinner, and two of them were picked out to put in the food box, and a jar of Yan Zichen's private wine was found from the food warehouse, and handed it to Wuzhi: "I have to eat with my mother at home, I can't go over to see him, let the uncle not drink too much, go to bed early." ”
Wuzhi took the order and ran to Yan Zike's Yan Mansion, and when he came back, the mother and son in the second room had already eaten the reunion dinner, and were eating melons and fruits, drinking tea and enjoying the bright moon in the yard.
Wuzhi stood at the entrance and gestured towards Yan Qi, Yan Qi patted the melon seed shell crumbs that fell on his body, got up and walked over: "Uncle has something to bring back?"
Don't you have more than a message...... Wuzhi stretched out his thumb and pointed in the direction behind him: "The master is outside now......
"Ahh
"The master is going to go out of the city this time, and he asked Miss Seven if she would like to go with her, if she can't leave, she doesn't have to go out. "Wuzhi Road.
"Wait for me. Yan Qi turned around and went back, said a few words to Mrs. Yan, and then stepped over again, "Let's go." ”
…… It's really crisp...... Wuzhi hurriedly led the way in front and went out of the house, and saw Yan Zike standing under the moon, next to Yizhi and two horses.
"Have you eaten?" Yan Qi beckoned.
"Not yet," Yan Zike curled the corners of her lips slightly, "I will eat again." ”
"Where are you going?" Yan Qi asked.
"The camp of the Yan family's army. Swallow said.
"Go find my father," Yan Qi said, "Then I'll go get some moon cakes." ”
"No need," Yan Zi tilted his face, seeing two bags of bulging things on the back of a branch's horse, "I brought everything you gave me." ”
"That's right, let's go. ”
"Goeda go back. ”
Wuzhi, who was ruthlessly kicked away, watched with tears streaming down his eyes as the two snake spirit masters got on their horses and walked out of the long alley.
Coming out of the south gate is a vast sandy land, the big round moon like a silver plate has not yet risen to the middle of the sky, it hangs in the east so brightly, Yan Zike did not let the horse gallop, only let the horse easily run with its hooves, Yan Qi sat behind him, and the weight of the two people did not have any effect on the horse's speed.
"How long are you going to stay in Saibei?" Yan Qi asked the thin man in front of him.
"It can be as short as one or two years, or as long as three or five years. The thin man said.
"The emperor is willing to see you for so long?" Yan Qi cared about his good friend.
"Huh. "Just laugh and don't explain.
Walking south so unhurriedly for more than half an hour, you can already see a dark hill in the distance, the fire under the mountain is dotted, it should be the big camp where the Yan family army is stationed, around the camp, a team of soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons in their hands are constantly patrolling nearby, and from a distance, they can see the three people and servants of Yan Zikebo, nephew, master and servant, and immediately a small group of people and horses rushed towards this car, shouting at the top of their voices: "Stop! Don't move forward! Military important places, idle people and others avoid!"
Yan Qi poked his head out from behind Yan Zike: "Mr. He, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
He saw that it was Yan Qi, and hurriedly jumped off his horse and ran forward: "It turned out to be the eldest lady, didn't you come to see the general this time?"
"Yes, is it convenient?" Yan Qi asked.
"Convenient! Of course it's convenient!" He Jiang always dared to stop the boss and his daughter, but he glanced at Yan Zike and Yizhi's faces while responding, "I don't know who these two are......"
"Your general is his eldest brother," Yan Qi introduced, "doesn't he look like him?"
…… What is the like...... He always muttered in his heart, how imposing the boss's five big and three thick bodies are, this slender one in front of him is like a few bamboos, and then look at this eyebrows, this demeanor, he must be a merry man, pampered, it's hard for him to come to Saibei alive, if it weren't for the fact that he is the boss's eldest brother, I really want to look at him.
"Take us there when you're done. He always heard the boss and his daughter say.
"Ahem...... "I've been a soldier for a long time, I'm used to going straight, and it's easy to have a bad expression when I think a few more words...... "Okay, okay, come with me!" Hurriedly turned around and led the way.
"Is my dad busy?" Yan Qi asked Mr. He.
"The general is planning how to break through the valley and take Yao Lida. ”
After Yan Zichen got the news that there was a secret passage underground leading to the inside of the iron mine yesterday, he immediately asked people to find out the specific location of the secret passage near the iron mine, as for how to break into and how to attack, but it had to be planned in detail and carefully arranged, just because no one could determine how many Yao Lida's personal soldiers were in the iron mine, and this final key battle should not be taken lightly.
So he called a few of his squad leaders to gather together for a meeting, and it happened that the fifteenth month was good, so he didn't stay stuffy in the camp tent, and pulled it directly to the open space outside, and used a few flat stones to form a big table, on which wine and fruit were placed, and the drawings were laid out, and a group of people discussed there while drinking.
"Why don't you send a dozen kung fu masters, sneak into the iron mine through the secret passage, find Yao Laogou, and take his head directly!"
"Outnumbered, this plan is to go and never return, for such an old dog, it is not worth sacrificing our soldiers. Yan Zichen rejected the suggestion.
"Or maybe we quietly dig the secret passage wide enough for our army to enter, and then break through the secret passage and rush straight in!"
"Time does not allow," Yan Zichen said, "Yao Laogou was sent yesterday to kidnap Lei Yu, and now a whole day has passed, or it can still be thought that it is a good time to find a good time and can't do it, if it drags on for another day, I'm afraid that Yao Laogou will be suspicious, and we don't have so much time to widen the secret passage." ”
"Just ignore the secret way, let's just surround him like this, he can't get out, sooner or later he will run out of food, he will either starve to death inside, or come out to fight us!"
"This iron mine Yao Laogou has been in business for nearly 20 years, since there is a secret passage connecting here and the city, it means that Yao Laogou has already taken precautions to make this iron mine a retreat, and he has the idea of retreating to this valley, how can he not think of the possibility of being surrounded by it? We tried to attack down from the top of the mountain, but we were all blocked by Yao Laogou's tight defensive line, which shows that he wants to defend this place and is not afraid to delay time with us......"
"Who is that?" Someone found Yan Zike and Yan Qi who were led by He to walk towards this box.
"My daughter. Yan Zichen glanced up, and then continued to stare back at the drawings, "And if you take the opportunity quickly, if you are late, you will change, the more you delay, the more I am afraid that the old dog will have a chance to escape-I grass, my daughter!" Yan Zichen stood up suddenly, and looked at the person who was walking towards him.
After seeing the big one clearly, a smile slowly raised the corners of his lips, and strode towards the room, with a pair of eyes shining brightly: "Big brother!" 166 Reading Network
