Chapter 320: The Wind is Down

Chaoyun said solemnly! "Qin'er, what should a person in officialdom have?" Alum thought it was arrogance and backbone, "It is a body of justice." ”

Pang Yuqin said: "Sister Yun is not wrong, but you see him now"

Wang Chaoyun smiled, raised his hand and gently poked Pang Yuqin's forehead, and said, "You still say that you believe him." You know better than me what kind of person he is, you don't believe him anymore, shouldn't I suspect that he is really here, abusing power for personal gain, and accepting bribes? .

"No, no. He won't, it's just, it's just, I heard the people say this about him, and he is still happy to do it all day. I really don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his bones

Wang Chaoyun put away his feet and comfortably placed them on the warm stone slab that let the sun bake, and then said to Pang Yuqin: "Things will always be revealed to the world, what you have to do now is to concentrate on the wild fruit that I told me." ”

Pang Yuqin listened to it and said, "Is there really one?" ”

Wang Chaoyun put on his shoes. "Of course, hurry up and put on your shoes." Let's go to find a bamboo slice, the fruit is buried deep in the silt by the river, so we have to find something to dig, just now I was in a hurry, and I didn't bring anything, so it's good to find a bamboo chip. ”

Pang Yuqin put on her shoes. Hearing the voice of Xue Jiao'er not far away, he also called her name loudly, and soon, Xue Jiao'er and Li'er came out of the woods, the breeze blew, and the green silk was slightly raised: "Second lady, sister Qin." Why are you here? Xue Yan'er's little face flushed, and she took Pang Yuqin's hand affectionately and said. The girl on the side looked a little angry, and only stood obediently on the side carrying a bamboo basket, smiling silently.

Wife Chaoyun teased: "Your sister Qin is in a bad mood, I asked her to accompany me out for a walk, we were about to go looking for wild fruits, you happen to be there, let's go together." ”

Xue Liang'er heard Wang Chaoyun say this, and quickly looked at Pang Yuqin nervously, leaned in front of her and asked, "Sister Qin." What's wrong with you? ”

Pang Yuqin was a little embarrassed and said, "No, don't listen to the second lady's nonsense, okay, let's go, let's dig wild fruits." ”

Du Wenhao has been so busy these days that he can hardly see him.

Now the reconstruction of the city has been basically completed, and the homeless have lived in bamboo buildings.

The defense work was also carried out smoothly, and the many medical teams dispatched to implement Du Wenhao's anti-fatigue thinking well, and typhoid fever had been basically controlled.

Du Wenhao began to focus his work on three-dimensional agriculture.

He first found a farmer with a pond outside the city and set up a three-dimensional agriculture according to his own ideas. Soon, the models he conceived were established, after all, these models were relatively simple, and as long as they could be imagined, they could be effective.

The eyes of the farmers in the experiment were round, these were all tricks that I couldn't even think of, but now I know that they are actually very simple. But there is a lot of income, and it is estimated that the harvest will not be bad next year.

After completing the pilot work. Du Wenhao gathered all the experienced farmers in the city and gave demonstrations and explanations at the farmers' homes.

The role of on-site explanation is much more convenient than reading a book, and many farmers are itchy to see it, and they all want to go back and experiment according to the appearance, and there is also such a harvest.

Three-dimensional agriculture is one of the most important exhibition paths of mountain agriculture, and Du Wenhao attaches special importance to this, so he gets up early and is busy in the farmland to guide farmers to develop three-dimensional agriculture.

However, a not-so-good news was reported to General Han Qi.

Han Qi called Du Wenhao and Su Shi to his Chinese army tent and unfolded a secret letter to them.

Du Wenhao took a look. Taken aback, Mi Bao said that the neighboring tribes of Xishan had begun to gather forces on the border, and there was an attempt to recapture the Xishan tribe.

After some discussion, Du Wenhao said brazenly: "It's too late to report to the imperial court to mobilize the forbidden army, it's still the old way, recruit troops on the spot, expand the army, and resist the Tubo army!" ”

Han Xiu thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Imperial Doctor Du, recruiting troops must be made by the emperor's holy decree, and the emperor is most afraid of the border generals to support the army and respect themselves, so he adopts various methods to clamp down, and has already had strict orders to expand the army without authorization." That's a capital offense! ”

Su Shi also said, "Yes." Brother Yunfan, last time we recruited troops along the way to expand the army by tens of thousands, although it had to be a last resort. It was also to expel the Fan army, but it still violated the forbidden laws of the imperial court. If we expand the army without authorization this time, violating Emperor Taizu's ban, once the Supervision Yuan joins us, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to do, and even the emperor will not be able to protect it."

Du Wenhao said: "Then what do you say?" At present, the army that we can fight in Xishan is only 5,000 forbidden troops, and the rest of the newly recruited troops, although there are tens of thousands of people, have not undergone systematic training and have not undergone much baptism in battle. And the Tubo army has been fighting in the internal battles of Tubo again and again, and its combat effectiveness is far stronger than that of our army. ”

Han Xiu said: "That's what I said, but, Imperial Doctor Du, there is a sentence that is not very good, but at this time, the old man can only remind the adults that the holy order is difficult to disobey."

"Really? Du Wenhao stood up with a sigh, "I also know that a word will be outside, and the military order will not be affected!" General Han and Su Zhizhou, you are afraid of things, then I will handle it! I must not watch Xishan be recaptured by the Fan army! You don't know, the emperor has already said, conquer Xishan and crown me the king of Xishan."

When Han Yi and Su Shi heard this, they glanced at each other, stood up, looked at Du Wenhao, and bowed: "I am willing to listen to the instructions of the adults!" ”

According to Song Shenzong's explanation, the future of these two people was all facilitated by Du Wenhao, and it was indeed reasonable for them to listen to what Du Wenhao said, so why didn't they listen to it, so they made this statement.

"That's good! Immediately recruit troops, and at the same time urgently report the military situation to the imperial court and request for increase

Next, the whole of Yazhou moved, and the city and countryside erected recruitment banners everywhere.

The day of the natural disaster**. As long as the people had something to eat, they recognized it even if they pinned their heads in their belts, so they quickly recruited tens of thousands of soldiers.

Newly recruited soldiers. All taught Li Pu to conduct recruit scratch training.

Perhaps it was the continuous flow of soldiers who broke into the border defense of Xishan and Yazhou, and the neighboring tribes of Tubo did not dare to act rashly, so they have been calm.

This made Du Wenhao feel a little at ease, and put his main energy on the reconstruction of the city and the three-dimensional agriculture, up, sometimes food and shelter are there, on this day, the monkey found the construction site and said that there was something, and he couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Du Wenhao, only to see him come out of the room black and thin, and still hold two slow heads in his hands.

Du Wenhao beckoned the monkey to sit down at a stone table under a big tree, handed him a slow head, and then chewed it in his mouth.

The monkey took the steamed bun, pinched it and made it as hard as a stone, and it faintly emitted a not very pleasant smell, the monkey didn't care at all, he had eaten something more unpalatable than this, and took a bite. Slowly, soak your mouth with saliva to soften before eating.

The monkey said vaguely, "Master, you eat this a day?" ”

Du Wenhao nodded with a smile and said, "It's good, this thing can afford to be hungry, and the two of them will be full, right." What are you looking for me? ”

Monkey: "I found out. ”

"What have you found out?" Du Wenhao asked.

"Master, you are busy forgetting, didn't you ask me to check the matter of that mansion?"

Du Wenhao then remembered and patted his head; Said: "Look if I really forgot, what did I find out?" ”

"Master Li's granddaughter once worked in the Ke family in the villa. Later, I left because I got married, but I worked for a long time. I asked her, and she took me to find some people who had worked at their house at the time. I probably know what's going on, and I'm coming to you. ”

Du Wenhao couldn't swallow it, walked to the well on the side, scooped a scoop of water in a bucket with a water scoop and poured a few mouthfuls, then turned around and said, "Okay, let's talk about it." ”

The monkey followed and said: "The Ke family was originally a wealthy man in Yazhou, I heard that all kinds of business are done, of course I heard that they are all legitimate businesses, and the Ke family is called."

Du Wenhao interrupted the monkey: "You don't need to give me their family tree. I also saw the money, so I will talk about it. This one. Is there anyone in the house to poison? ”

"It was supposed to be."

"Nonsense, I know there is."

"Hey, hey. I mean, after the destruction of the Tibetan army, there was still one. ”

"Oh? Then when you go, people will be silent."

"I heard from a person who has been an old mother in the Ke family. She had left the Ke family three days before we went. At that time, because our current house was another house of the Ke family, they usually lived in the city, and the house in the city was burned down by the Fan army, so they moved their family into the deep mountains and old forests. ”

"They're pretty prescient, okay, you go on."

"At the time. The old man of the Ke family was sick, probably angry, saying that the Ke family had a daughter-in-law who let Fan Jun spoil it, and the daughter-in-law later hanged herself, and she was already pregnant in her belly, and the old man was sick when he was angry, and he died not long after. ”

"Alas!"

"The Ke family has a large population, and I heard that there are dozens of people, and the old man Ke has five wives, all of whom have children. In the second generation, there were eleven children, and four of those eleven children remained at home. afterward

"Alright. It's so far away that I'm confused about what you said. Simple! ”

The monkey said: "Oh, I heard that they are in the same house for five generations, and as soon as the Fan army came, the Ke family lost three lives in a row, by the way, I heard that a man named Ke Ming of the Ke family killed his wife, concubine and three children, and then committed suicide himself." ”

When Du Wenhao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Are they all dead?" ”

Monkey: "I heard that he is the grandson of the eldest house, but the old man did not hand over the power of the family to him later. Anyway, the matter was complicated, and he was probably angry, so he killed all the people in his room. ”

Du Wenhao was a little creepy when he heard this, and said, "What about other living people?" ”

Monkey: "They said they went to Shuzhong, they have a big family, and they don't care about this house, but I heard that there are people who don't want to leave, but they don't live in the house." By the way, there is so much food in the granary of that house that you can't even imagine! ”

Du Wenhao's heart moved. Now what he needs most is food, he thought about it and said, "You go and find out who is left behind, and can you sell us his grain." ”

The monkey smiled meaningfully: "I've thought of it, I've been looking for it for more than ten days, everyone has said everything, saying that Ke Ming should have four children, only killed three, there should be one more, and the one left should be the one, and some said, in fact, they are all gone." Later, I overheard the old dove of Le Yao Yuan say. They have a new stunner there. is called Ke Yao, and he said that he was a member of the Ke family in the past. So I went back and told my wife, who asked me to bring some of the guards with me, because I was too old to let me in. ”

Du Wenhao laughed.

The monkey was a little embarrassed, and said with a red face, "Don't laugh, sir." ”

"I'm laughing, how could such a rich family be reduced to doing such a despicable thing, it's just a gimmick made by the old dove, and you really went to see it."

The monkey nodded seriously and said, "Really went." The girl hadn't been there for long. And she is still young, so she has not yet received customers, but invited her to have a master and call her qin, chess, calligraphy and painting; We also met people, and when the old dove saw us report your name, where did you dare to say a word, let us see it directly. ”

Du Wenhao slapped the monkey on the head hard. The monkey groaned, and Du Wenhao said, "Cub." Dare to report my name, in the future, he will definitely be a master who looks for flowers and asks willows. ”

The monkey touched his head hehehe: "You don't know that the girl named Ke Yao looks like a porcelain doll." I was stunned as soon as I entered. That look, tsk tsk, "that's called a beauty." ”

Du Wenhao took a sip and said, "You little kid know what beauty is?" ”

The monkey stuck out his tongue: "But you should go and see, I heard that she is only fourteen years old, tall, just a cold face, and she doesn't smile when she sees anyone, and I heard that the old dove gave her a name, what is it called Leng Yue, it's really not good." ”

Du Wenhao: "I don't think it sounds good either.

The monkey's eyes lit up and he said, "Really? ”

Du Wenhao stretched out his hand to hit again, the monkey dodged away, and Du Wenhao said with a smile: "What is really fake." Let you go to check the matter of the house, you are good, go to the kiln, you should fight! ”

The monkey cautiously stepped forward and said softly: "Don't fight yet, I'll go up and ask Leng Yue directly, do you know Ke Ming?" Guess what she said? ”

"I don't know.?" Du Wenhao said.

"How do you know?" The monkey didn't understand.

Du Wenhao stood up with a smile and said, "※ Scared." How could you possibly think of the body of a kiln sister. If she is really Ke Ming, she is used to it. Come, Ke Ming has no reason to kill her, but if she doesn't kill her, even if she really stays, the people of the Ke family will not leave her alone in Yazhou, take 10,000 steps back, even if she really stays, she will not be so cheap that she goes to the kiln to laugh for a living. ”

The monkey felt that what Du Wenhao said was reasonable, so he had to say, "Then I'll check it out."

Du Wenhao: "Go ahead." Don't go into that kind of place in the future, it'll be short-lived. ”

The monkey naturally didn't understand what Du Wenhao meant, so he just nodded and left.

Du Wenhao got up and was about to go back to the room, when he heard the soldiers guarding the door running over and reported, "My lord, someone is looking for you outside the door." ”

Du Wenhao looked out of the door and saw a brightly dressed bewitching woman standing there facing him, with a face that was about to bloom.

"I don't know this person." Du Wenhao said

The soldier snickered: "It's the boss of the Le Yao Courtyard in the city, who said that he invited you and General Li to dinner."

Du Wenhao secretly thought, these people really have a way, dare to come to the barracks to find someone, what to eat, didn't they invite you to visit the kiln? Ke Lao, yes, it seems that the woman named Ke Yao is in this courtyard called Le Yao. Scold. It's better to be in time than to be in time, Du Wenhao thought for a while, and said to the soldier: "Let her go back first, and Li Pu and I will arrive later."

After packing up, Du Wenhao took Li Pu out of the door.

In the west of Yazhou, most of them are fireworks willow lanes, which have the reputation of Yazhou Red Street, where willows are planted along the pond and brothels. Maybe they all did such a deal, but it is strange that the fire of the Fan army did not burn this place down. In the whole Yazhou City, only here is still a prosperous scene, which is a place for chasing joy, drunken gold, splendid buildings and ships, and prosperous and luxurious!

Lao Jiu is a business person in the end, he thinks thoughtfully everywhere, and rents two sedan chairs to wait not far from the barracks, so that no one will know that Du Wenhao is going to visit the kiln, nor will Du Wenhao embarrass how to carry the sedan chair around a lot of alleys. The zigzags give people "the path is quiet." Sense.

Du Wenhao listened to Li Pu. This kiln also has a lot of exquisiteness, it is best to have willow in front of the door, take the meaning of "according to the person"; It is best to have flowing water outside the window, with "endless" feelings. The architecture of the house is also very elegant. The hall should be wide. The courtyard should be beautiful, with flowers planted before and after, and strange stones on the left and right. Fish swim in the pool, and the curtain hangs in the pavilion. The interior furnishings are even more exquisite, there must be piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and it is like a "place of elegance and self-cultivation" and is by no means a "butcher's shop." "When you enter such a place, you will first make your heart feel refreshed, and the sickness, bad luck, and fatigue will be swept away. Secondly, dishes, snacks, melons and fruits, tableware, wine cups, and teacups should be very delicate and clean. I heard that Nale Yaoyuan is the best green house in Yazhou, and even the chefs are invited from the capital, and the service is extremely thoughtful. The dish is light. The wine is pure, the tea is fragrant, the utensils are clean, and then held by a pair of slender jade hands, the sound of the warbler swallows, the hospitality, all the laity on the banquet of the shouting three and drinking, shouting wildly, can it not be a special enjoyment?

I think it was ordered by the old dove before, so the sedan chair man directly sent Du Wenhao and Li Pu to the side door of Leyao Courtyard, and did not enter the main gate directly, at this time, there is no man at the main gate, but if there are a few pieces of silver in the bag, you can eat a few glasses of flower wine in Leyao Courtyard, no one will be stingy with this money, but it is not the best girl to accompany you, the girl in this Qinglou is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the less silver, the girl is naturally inferior, but can step into this door, that is a kind of vanity expansion of men.

got off the sedan chair, Du Wenhao looked around, it was a deep alley, and he didn't see anyone, this was the first time he had seen this kind of place, Du Wenhao was naturally not so arrogant, he looked down on this kind of place from the bottom of his bones, so when he entered the door. Lowering his head slightly, Li Pu didn't, followed behind Du Wenhao with a big grin, and looked around curiously.

"Yo, Du Gouguan is here. Honorable guest, Cui'er is here to greet you and General Li. The old dove was dressed in a pink shirt. There are drawstrings on both sides of the placket that are loosely knotted at the chest, and the remaining double straps hang down at will, dancing in the wind. Although he looks like he is in his thirties, his eyebrows and eyes can still see that he was handsome when he was young, and he didn't wear heavy makeup, just a little rouge on his cheeks, and it didn't look annoying.

The old dove walked to Du Wenhao's side as he spoke, but his hand had not yet touched Du Wenhao's arm, but he opened it. The old dove smiled stupidly, and seeing that Du Wenhao had no expression on his face, he didn't dare to put his hand on it anymore.

Lao Jiu directly asked Du Wenhao and Li Pu to go to the second floor on the east side and entered a house called "Warm House." The room, go in and smell a fragrance, the layout of the room is fresh and elegant, like the boudoir of a large family's daughter, there is a picture of a lady hanging on the wall, the female middle school on the way is plump, wearing revealing clothes, holding a small fan in one hand and half covering her face, and one hand is placed on a few cases, there is a rockery behind her, and there is a cluster of pale red flowers hanging down on the mountain. It happened to fall on the maid's bun, and the layout of the main and secondary paintings was compact and reasonable, and the painting was fine.

Du Wenhao stepped forward to take a look. I saw that the seal on the painting was printed: Yan Liben, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, even if it is a quality, it should be worth some money, it seems that this old dove named Cui'er is really willing to spend money.

After sitting down, the old man called two women with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and it didn't make people feel annoyed when they saw it, but Du Wenhao's heart was not here, and naturally there was no expression. Seeing this, the old dove didn't wait for Li Pu to speak, and hurriedly motioned for the two women to go out, and then cautiously walked to Li Pu's side, and asked with a smile in a low voice: "General Li, look, look at what kind of girl to call Master Du."

Li Pu snorted and said, "Since you are inviting our Lord Du, why should you let the top brand of your Leyao Courtyard come and serve."

The old dove was a little embarrassed, Li Pu thought that the old dove was unwilling, so he said loudly: "So angry, what kind of guests do you invite, Lord Du is busy with official business, where do you have time to eat and drink with vulgar powder here, go, go, go, there is no one, we will leave."

The old dove was anxious, peeking at Du Wenhao without any expression, neither drinking tea nor eating snacks, thinking, no wonder he became a hook pipe at such a young age. It's fat, I heard that the adults in the state capital have to listen to him, it seems that it is true at all, such a calm and atmospheric young man is really rare.
