Chapter 248: Stalemate (Part II)

Chapter 248: Stalemate (Medium)

Meng Tuo was stunned, looking helpless, "You asked me to take the initiative to talk to you about Hu Ren, isn't this embarrassing for me?" Changting's anger suddenly subsided, of course she knew how secretive Meng Tuo was about this topic, Meng Tuo looked like an eight-foot man, but his heart was very sharp, and she almost married into the Xie family when she was hesitant at the beginning

Meng Tuocha saw that Changting's face was soft, and he immediately hit the snake and the stick, and his tone perked up and explained, "At the beginning, the Shi family was trapped in Jizhou, and it was difficult for the uncle, but my uncle was ambitious, but the world of the Fu family was as stable as a rock at that time, Jizhou had no food and grass, no troops, and no trade. Changting's face gradually softened, and Meng Tuo hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "At the beginning, the Shi family and the Hu people only wanted to communicate with each other, and then gradually evolved into a transaction of medicinal materials, weapons and armor, most of which were provided by Jizhou, and the Hu people sent weapons and armor. Do you remember the market post where we stopped? The market has also flourished over the years. ”

No wonder there were so many Hu people in that market

Changting always thought that the trading was just a trade in some gadgets that the Han people did not have, such as the excellent mare's milk wine and milk tablets brewed by the Huns, who would have expected that the weapons and armor under Shi Meng's command were also traded from the Hu people! Changting can probably understand Shi Meng's thoughts, what Jiankang doesn't give, Lao Tzu buys it himself, you don't care where I buy it from, anyway! What is in Lao Tzu's hands is Lao Tzu's. Changting also understood why the soldiers in Jizhou were so fierce - Shi Meng consciously practiced his armaments, and how could the trained soldiers not be sophisticated? Changting looked at Meng Tuo. After considering the words, he asked softly, "What about you?"

"My father should have been a matchmaker. Otherwise, no one would dare to smuggle war supplies. ”

Before Changting finished asking, Meng Tuo opened his mouth lightly, and just answered what Changting wanted to ask, Meng Tuo said this, and said again with a slight pause, and his tone did not contain too much emotion. There was no one in the courtyard, and Meng Tuo stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around the shoulders of the long pavilion, "Auntie, after all, it's for my sake." He is willing to help pull the strings, I don't know if he is looking at my sake, or for the sake of the chaos of the Great Jin, Hu people can take advantage of the weakness. ”

Changting put his backhand on the back of Meng Tuo's hand. I don't know how to consol him.

"Since you have opened your mouth. That's all there is to it. Meng Tuo smiled, not wanting to extend this topic any longer, the conversation changed, and then returned to the right way, "This time my uncle went because of the shortage of grain and grass on the Hu people's side, the Hu people opened their mouths to ask for prices and hoarded goods, and my uncle sat on the ground and bargained. I think selfishly. Fu Ji did not grasp this point, the Shi family was related to the Hu people, otherwise Fu Ji would not have been so roundabout in his strategy. If he gets this handle, he will definitely kill Xuanzhang, and this power is much stronger than the current hard encounter, so this time luring me out of the city is probably a temporary intention. ”

Changting: "Huh? With a sigh, he motioned for Meng Tuo to continue.

Meng Tuo poured the already cold tea in front of Changting to his side, poured another warm tea concentratingly, and told Changting to finish drinking, "Don't drink in the future, as soon as you drink, your temper will be a little explosive," Changting took the tea soup, took a small sip, and asked Meng Tuo, "Since Fu Ji is also taking a step at a time, what should we do?" ”

"Take it one step at a time." Meng Tuo replied, looking at the long pavilion with a very soft gaze.

"You will still lead the troops out of the city and lure the enemy deeper." Changting's tone was firm.

Meng Tuo laughed, stretched out his hand and rubbed Changting's hair, he didn't speak for a long time, and then he landed softly after a long time, "Not necessarily." ”

If there was such a situation three years ago, if there was such a situation a year ago, even if he saw through this situation, he would definitely lead his troops out of the city to create the illusion of an empty city for Fu Ji, and reverse lure Fu Ji into the city to see him again, and close the door and beat the dog. But now, he has been hesitating, Fu Ji is not another straw bag of the Fu family, Fu Ji is a scheming straw bag, what tricks he will make after the siege of the city, no one can be sure, now he is not at ease to leave his family in the city, the city and the territory are gone, and then fight again, if something goes wrong with his woman, it will make him regret it too late.

Changting turned his eyes sideways, and the light in his eyes flowed and waved.

Meng Tuo's expedition or not to go on the expedition, these days has been pressing on Changting's heart, coinciding with the first day of the new year, the new daughter-in-law went to Shi's house to ask the Yu family for peace, Changting's attitude was respectful, and then sat at the head of the case, borrowing a handkerchief to cover her mouth and smile, "I'm afraid that in three or two months, Gillian will have to sit opposite." There was no head and no brain, and Yu Shi also laughed and asked, "How do you say this?" Changting and Wan raised their eyebrows, "Because the two sisters-in-law are going to marry in!" ”

Yu Shi waved his hand and smiled, "The auspicious time of the two families has not yet been decided, how can it be so fast!" ”

Changting took over the conversation, "Big brother can't do it, how close is Youzhou to Jizhou?" The second brother can get things done properly after a trip back and forth, and you will wait for the girl of the Yu family to enter the door to be the second sister-in-law of Gillian. Changting pursed his lips and smiled, buried his head, and said softly, "Gillian is now her own family, and the family doesn't speak two words, now the world is not peaceful, don't take advantage of this time We haven't torn our faces with the Fu family and hurry up to act conveniently, once the two families meet, marrying a daughter-in-law depends on which team the people stand on that way."

Changting said that the family said that the family said the family, and the words behind him were of course implicit.

Once Fu Ji sent troops, the apparent peace of the two runes and Shi was broken, then the turbulent waves took advantage of the situation to roll over, and there was no turning back from the bow, after the situation was intensified, the marriage between Shi Min and Shi Kuo would definitely be shelved, and Shi Kuo's family affair had nothing to look forward to, but the Shi family was extremely looking forward to the entry of the Cui family girl.

Of course, the Yu family understood, the smile on his face was reduced, and Wen Yan replied, "It's this reason, I repaired the book the day before yesterday and called the second child back." It's not enough to have only one man in the family, Atuo, you have to come back and guard it. Changting raised his eyebrows and smiled and blessed, "In the end, my aunt is thoughtful." ”

Then the two of them chatted a few more words, Yu Shi left a meal, Shi Xuan also came out to eat, on the Jizhou special mushroom hot pot, a matter of heart, Changting was in a good mood, and added half a bowl of rice, but Yu looked at it and smiled, only said, "It can be seen that he is hungry in Jingyuan, and when Ah Tuo comes, I will definitely shout at him." He also rewarded the two cooks, and Changting took it with a smile, holding a full stomach and taking the chef with today's new harvest, Changting exhaled a big sigh as soon as he stepped out of the threshold.

When Shi Lao Er came back, the probability of Meng Tuo returning from the expedition was much higher. (To be continued......) I1292
