Zhang Sheng returned to his residence, but he couldn't sleep. The question of how to get in touch is a real puzzle. He lay down on the bed and got up again and walked back and forth on the ground. Walk up a few times and then lie down on the bed.

So it went to the third watch. He sat down on the bed. He secretly thought in his heart: "This time I came here not only with the mission of the military department, but more importantly, the expectations of His Majesty." ”

Indeed, before Zhang Sheng came to this Xixuan, Liu Yong summoned him. And gave him a lot of advice. For example, you can't be too polite to the people of the Yao Sun Department, and you must reflect the dignity of our Celestial Empire. He had already used this in his interview with the patriarch.

As a bureau-level official, it was an honor for him to be summoned by the emperor. And Liu Yong's kindness, as well as his expectations, made him full of emotion.

And the difficulties at this time reminded him of Liu Yong's voice and smile. Liu Yong's indifferent expression seemed to carry a kind of strength. It's the kind of power that doesn't rush in any way.

The emperor's demeanor appeared in his mind without listening. His mood gradually calmed down. He was no longer anxious, and lay down on the bed peacefully. He put his arms behind his head and slowly closed his eyes.

After a while, he fell asleep.

In his dream, he saw Emperor Liu Yong.

Liu Yong sat on the dragon chair on the Jinluan Palace, smiling kindly and looking at him.

He was the only one in the main hall, and there was a faint mist around the emperor, still like a fairy. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor and shouted hooray, hooray, hooray.

Liu Yong said lightly: "Let's be flat." ”

He stood up, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at the emperor, but the emperor's voice and smile seemed to be in front of his eyes.

Liu Yong asked lightly: "Zhang Sheng, have you encountered any difficulties?" ”

He said: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen has indeed encountered difficulties in Xiyan. ”

Liu Yong asked, "Tell me, what kind of difficulty it is." ”

He said, "Yes, Your Majesty." Weichen went to Xiyun with the mission of the imperial court, and successfully met the patriarch of the Yaori tribe, and reached a joint intention with him. Together, we work on specific strategies that should be combined with the inside and outside. However, when it came to how to communicate between the two armies, this link was stuck. ”

"Why is that?" Liu Yong asked.

He said: "Your Majesty, because the Nayao Ri tribe is now surrounded by the army of the Tatar slaves and the Tuwang tribe. There is no way to go out, so there is no way to get in touch. We've been studying it for three days, but we haven't come up with a good solution. ”

Liu Yong said: "Zhang Sheng, since we can't get in touch, why should we get in touch?" ”

He said: "Back to Your Majesty, this is a strategy that should be combined with the outside, and what is needed is the combination of the inside and the outside. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to coordinate and act in unison with both internal and external cooperation, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort. in order to accomplish the set goals. If the two parties can't get in touch, then sit down and get across. ”

Liu Yong nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I still say the same thing, if you can't get in touch, don't contact me." Things are dead, but people are alive. ”

He hurriedly said: "Please also ask Your Majesty to make it clear to the ministers." ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "Zhang Sheng, I have already told you clearly. ”

He said, "But Weichen still doesn't understand." ”

finished speaking, but Liu Yong's response was not heard. He hurriedly looked up, only to find that Liu Yong was gone. He immediately shouted, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty." ”

He woke up and looked at the night.

"It turned out to be a dream!"

He did it again, reminiscing about the dream he had just had. He saw His Majesty in a dream just now, and he told His Majesty about the confusion in front of him. He asked His Majesty for a solution.

But His Majesty only said a word to him and left.

"What did Your Majesty say to me?" He woke up in such a hurry that he forgot for a while.

He stood up, lit the lamp, and walked to the window, which he wanted to open to get some air. So he opened it. A cold breath came to my face. He immediately felt much more sober.

And what Liu Yong said to him, he also remembered.

"I'm still saying that, if you can't get in touch, don't get in touch. Things are dead, but people are alive. ”

Thinking of this sentence, his eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself, "Yes, that's it." I'm still saying the same thing, if you can't get in touch, don't get in touch. Things are dead, but people are alive. But although His Majesty's words are simple, they are confusing. ”

He began to ponder.

Time is ticking by.

Just when a faint white fish belly lit up in the sky, he finally figured it out.

I only heard him shout: "By the way, in fact, Your Majesty has already told you the solution." That is, if you can't contact it, then don't contact it. ”

Thinking of this, he almost jumped with excitement. He closed the window and wanted to go to the patriarch to speak. But it was not yet dawn, and the patriarch was still sleeping. He had no choice but to sit down and make tea, which was cold, but warm in his stomach.

He felt that he had strength again, and this power was given to him by Emperor Liu Yong. He immediately knelt down to the east and kowtowed to Liu Yong.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live."

His admiration for Liu Yong is comparable to that of a god.

He calmed down, sat and drank tea until dawn.

He went out of the house and went out into the yard to stretch his arms and legs, and move his muscles and bones. After a while, the little maid called him breakfast.

Breakfast had milk, pancakes, and jerky, and it was very fragrant and full.

After eating, he drank tea alone for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, I went to the hall. And the patriarch has long been seated.

Kalun also came.

It seems that Kalun was a close confidant of the patriarch.

Seeing Zhang Sheng's refreshed appearance, the patriarch thought to himself: "It seems that this Mr. Zhang has come up with a plan." ”

Zhang Sheng walked to the bottom of the hall, arched his hand to the patriarch, and said, "I've seen the patriarch." ”

The patriarch smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang doesn't have to be polite. You may be seated. Come on, serve tea. ”

Zhang Sheng walked in the direction of the chair and bowed his hand to Kalun by the way to show respect. Kalun also stood up politely and bowed to him.

It was just sitting still, with a casual look on his face. The little maid served tea, and he felt that he had taken a few sips.

At this time, the patriarch asked with a smile: "I see that Mr. Zhang looks good today, and he seems to have slept well last night." ”

Zhang Sheng said with a smile: "Patriarch, on the contrary, I stayed up all night last night!" ”

"Oh? So Mr. Zhang has been thinking about a plan all night? The patriarch asked with a smile.

Zhang Sheng said with a smile: "The patriarch guessed very accurately, and he really thought about countermeasures all night. ”

"Did Mr. Zhang figure it out?" The patriarch asked.

Zhang Sheng smiled and nodded.
