Once Wu Mingde could swear that she was not blinded by such a trivial thing as love, but now she imagined more than once that if Yang Shiniang 'died unexpectedly', how likely Su Tanqing would be with her.

But no matter how many times he thought about it, Wu Mingde knew that it was impossible, and in his usual conversations, Su Tanqing did not hide his contempt for those who had groups of wives and concubines or who boasted of being romantic.

Although Su Tanqing did not have the idea that women should be chaste for men, he also did not agree with the chaotic private life, and Wu Mingde was persuaded by Su Tanqing several times not to raise so many male attendants.

Although it did not affect the relationship, Wu Mingde clearly knew that Su Tanqing had a kind of thinking that was dedicated to his partner.

Not to mention that Su Tanqing has already identified a person, even if he doesn't, he won't like a bed...... of people.

What's even more terrifying is that Wu Mingde actually found himself wandering in abandoning all men even more.

Wu Mingde used to be very sure that there was nothing reluctant for the sake of the great cause, but recently he has been wavering, and he must constantly warn himself to be firm.

But Wu Mingde knew that he was shaken and hesitated.

……

And Yang Shiniang was also hesitant to tell Su Tanqing about this, according to Su Tanqing's current situation, she wouldn't care about this matter at all.

If she really needed to perform the gift of Zhou Gong, she would refuse because of the 'before' idea, but the current Su Tanqing didn't understand it at all, and the previous Su Tanqing wouldn't think of it, so naturally she would let Yang Shiniang decide for herself.

But Yang Shiniang was not sure what Su Tanqing would think after recovery.

Su Tanqing told her before that if a female lover in a small world wants to have a child, she needs to find a man's sperm to cultivate, and one of them will be born.

And in that world, there are many people who donate their sperm for refrigeration, and they don't know the flow of their sperm after donating it.

At that time, Yang Shiniang was still like this, and she let her blood flow out, which was incredible.

She especially remembered that Su Tanqing laughed for a long time at that time, and if she really had to calculate it clearly, if someone's essence happened to be used by many people, wouldn't she have to raise tens of thousands of children?

It's just that this matter was just mentioned casually, and later the topic turned to the monarch, the minister, the father, the son, and the filial piety, and did not continue.

According to such a statement, then Su Tanqing doesn't care about his 'life, breeding, and cell' for others to use?

But what if she cares? According to her stubborn temper and lack of reverence for imperial power, who knows that she will not fall out directly because of this? Or even rebellion?

Yang Shiniang now regrets that she threw out this possibility in order to get out peacefully as soon as possible.

But no matter how entangled you are, try not to delay your travels.

Last time they went south, this time they chose to go north. After several hesitations, he still took Su Yumin as a little Taoist boy. Staying in Luoyang is really reassuring and reluctant.

Due to the turmoil brought by the Mongols, although there was no direct contact with the war, the reinforcements passing by or the local garrison collected grain and grass.

In addition, many people have plans to stop Mongolia, and those who have left their homeland have left their homeland, and those who have joined the army, even if it is difficult to leave their homeland, have sold their valuables, packed up and waited for news.

Even those who never thought of leaving, exchanged the rest of their family wealth for weapons or food.

After these reasons, the people of the north have not yet recovered, and the more they go south, the more comfortable they are, the more desolate and impoverished they are.

They have traveled all the way to practice medicine, and unlike the south, which has an income, the north is completely self-subsidized to buy medicine for patients, and even met many people who are hungry and sick.

Su Tanqing's brows frowned tighter the more she walked, although Yang Shiniang was a little distressed, she was also a little relieved, it was much better to be touched than not to be touched.

The scene seen along the way is similar, but the further north you go, the more serious it gets.

Su Tanqing and Yang Shiniang stopped and stopped all the way, and when they came to Zhangyang County, they remembered that the sixth disciple Su Xuanyu was a county official in Qimeng County here, so they set their goal in Qimeng County.

They still practiced medicine all the way at the original speed, and slowly arrived in Qimeng County.

Su Xuankuo looked quite busy, they stayed for a few days before they saw him with a scruffy beard, and he was thinner than when he was at home.

Su Xuankuo's face was full of disbelief when he saw his master and his wife, and he was stunned for a while before jumping up and asking them to go to the county office.

"How is Xiaoliu here?" Yang Shiniang asked. She treated her disciple as her own child, and she was a little distressed to see that his well-proportioned figure had lost weight because of his martial arts.

"What the disciples have learned is naturally extremely useful, but some methods can be used, and some clever women are difficult to cook without rice, and human and financial resources cannot support it." Su Xuankuo replied.

They were originally taught by Yang Shiyi Niang most of the time, so it was not strange to see that it was Yang Shi Niang who asked them.

Su Tanqing and Yang Shiniang had been here for a few days, and of course they knew what their disciples' methods had worked and which had not.

The north is in dire straits, and if it wants to develop, it is necessary to develop agriculture first, and then improve the infrastructure little by little, and then there will be other industrial, commercial, educational, and so on.

Not long after Su Xuankuo arrived, he was stuck in agriculture.

Although Yang Shiniang has promoted high-yield crops in the early years, the scope is to be expanded little by little. The first were the big landlords and big bureaucratic families, then the well-informed merchants, and then the small landlords and small bureaucrats.

A remote and difficult marginal town like Qimengxiang County has never been popularized, not that I haven't heard of it, but no one wants to plant it

It will probably wait until other places are popular, and then the finished product and the way of eating and cooking are passed on, and when there is an idle land here, it will start to try, and then slowly replace the original.

And Su Xuankuo's arrival was originally to promote this process in order to solve the current difficult situation, but the effect was not obvious, and no one bought it.

He can only plant it within the reach of his power, and then let everyone see the effect and voluntarily plant it, but the effect is extremely slow, and there will probably be some remote areas that cannot be popularized when he leaves office.

This side is stuck, and Su Xuankuo can only implement some policies of recuperation and recuperation first, and come up with some measures to deal with the Mongolian guerrillas who come to harass from time to time.

"Little Liu, in fact, ......" Yang Shiniang frowned and thought for a while, and as soon as she said a few words, Su Tanqing interrupted her words.

"Stupid." Su Tanqing's tone was neither angry nor contemptuous, but it was such a fluttering two words that made Su Xuanqing stunned and bowed his head and said nothing.

"Ah Qing ......"

Hearing Yang Shiniang's words, she understood that she was letting herself explain clearly, and shut up if she didn't express her opinion, Su Tanqing glanced at Su Xuankuo before continuing.

"What does it mean to have no human and financial resources? No, why don't you look for us? Are we ornaments? Su Tanqing said so much, and he shut up when he understood it.

Yang Shiniang looked at Su Xuankuo, who was dazed, and then explained. "Since you are our disciple, it means that we are also your resource."

"But...... Didn't the master say ...... "Su Xuankuo remembered Su Tanqing's words before they entered the examination room.

"Your master is just letting you think independently, not letting you separate yourself from the Thunder King's Mansion. The momentum that should be borrowed still needs to be borrowed, and the support that can be obtained still needs to be taken. ”

Su Tan interjected, "Could it be that if you say to someone who is at odds with me, 'Master let me practice', they will withdraw their hindrance to you?" ”

Su Xuankuo: "......"

"There are not enough people to tempt the wavering; If you don't have enough money, you can borrow from us; The obstruction of local forces can move out of the palace. Yang Shiyi Niang said softly.

Su Xuankuo's eyes turned red, and he lowered his head and replied in a low voice.

"A-Qing is to let you think about how to solve the affairs of the place where you are in office, don't send a message to ask how to deal with these things on the ground, instead of leaving you alone, when you think about things, you should also ask how much help the palace can give."

"Write to the steward yourself and ask for something, and use the same seal letter that I gave each of you before." Su Tanqing felt that Yang Shiniang had explained enough, and made a final decision.

"Yes." Su Xuankuo lowered his head, and he could vaguely see tears falling.

Su Tanqing opened his mouth, glanced at Yang Shiniang and hesitated, but still shut up and didn't say anything, and then walked out.

Yang Shiniang got up and patted the young man's immature shoulder, "A-Qing is not angry, she just feels a little embarrassed to make you cry." ”

"......" The young man who was crying choked, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and couldn't cry anymore.

Su Tanqing's business is almost all over the country just on the surface, and if Su Xuankuo needs food, he can be sent by the Su family's carriage and horse shop from the south, where food is still relatively abundant.

With grain, we can stabilize the people's hearts, and we can also use grain to make agreements with the people, and we can quickly promote high-yield crops.

Only when the people have filled their stomachs will they have confidence in Su Xuankuo and will thoroughly implement the decree from Su Xuankuo. Su Xuankuo's follow-up policies can be implemented step by step.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as you are not radical and do not encounter accidents, in fact, what Su Tanqing's disciples learned from Su Tanqing is enough.

Seeing that Su Xuankuo had this kind of thought, Su Tanqing and Yang Shiniang had no choice but to send letters to the other six disciples who were released, so that they could save the resources that they didn't need to use, so they would just work hard.

In fact, their method is also effective, otherwise they would not have risen to prominence in their previous life, but this method is slow and tiring, and it is not necessary.

Just like Yang Shiniang just said, others will not put aside your identity as a disciple of Su Tanqing because of what you think. There will still be obstacles, and others who should help you will still take action when it is time to act, the only difference is that if you don't send a message, you won't check your family.

Beyond Qimeng County and further north is Mongolia, Su Tanqing did not have the idea of going behind enemy lines to carry out activities, so he went to the border city of Chunzhe Pass, which was rumored to be extremely tragic at that time.

They didn't alarm anyone, they just entered Chunzhe Pass like ordinary Youfang Dao people. Probably because of the environment, or even more cruel - survival of the fittest, most of the people in the city are young and middle-aged, and they look at people with some vigilance.

The three of them practiced medicine in the city for a few days, and then when they were allowed to enter and leave the city one day, they walked outside the gate of the city that had been stormed by the Mongols during the war.

The bottom of the walls, moats, moats, etc., near the city walls, have all been repaired, and it is no longer possible to see the original condition when looking from the inside.

Su Tanqing and Yang Shiniang continued to walk out, and when they reached the approximate range of the city defense artillery, they could see the bitter battle from the ground there.

When you walk there, you can notice that it is slightly downward, and when you walk there, you look around, and you realize that the ground here has been bombarded by artillery fire a few inches!

There are also blackened pieces of metal on the ground, and it is inferred that the pieces of iron, lead, and copper that were originally placed in the shells; Much of the floor looked like it had been burned, and there were charred mud patches on the ground; The land is not its original color, but all black-brown......

When Yang Shiniang realized that this was dyed red by blood and dried to turn black and brown, her face suddenly turned pale, and she felt that she was standing in a sea of corpses and blood.

Seeing this, Su Tanqing held Yang Shiniang's hand and wanted to go back to the city with her, and there were things around that made her feel uncomfortable, although she didn't know what it was, it was better to leave first.

But the moment she turned to see all the walls, countless strong and tragic thoughts rushed into her mind! This wall, which separates the two countries, carries the will of countless people.

Seeing countless comrades-in-arms falling, they wanted to break the city and kill everyone's minds; yearning for the Central Plains flowers and the land of flowers and wants the idea of a woman with wealth; Seeing the countless comrades-in-arms devouring the constant flames, the thoughts of the southerners who wanted to shoot to death there......

Seeing the dense crowd of human heads outside the city, the idea of releasing arrows; Seeing the rushing siege timber, the idea of resisting the city gate with his own body; Seeing the idea that the ladder wants to destroy; Seriously injured, he wanted to roll down the ladder and crush one to death before he died......

Su Tanqing only felt that countless emotions were rushing in, his head hurt, and then the world fell into endless darkness......
