Chapter 0161 On the Road
The soldiers stopped to rest, every city in Ningxia has more or less spare grain for the use of the coming and going troops, this is not an order from Ning Zhiyuan, but a traditional regulation of the Ming Dynasty, he thinks it seems good in some aspects.
The premise is not to watch the people starve to death and refuse to take out the spare grain to eat, human life is greater than the sky, but it is also thinner than paper.
After eating the second meal of the day, the soldiers seemed very satisfied, the so-called from luxury to frugality, from frugality to luxury, they changed from two meals a day to three meals a day, which is a simple and happy thing.
Chen Yi reported on the recent situation of Yongning County, with a population of more than 30,000 people, nearly 50,000 mu of land, and nearly 30,000 mu of land in the hands of the people, which is developing in an orderly and good manner.
Nodding, Ning Daguan glanced at this scholar-like person, praised him, and prepared to leave.
Ning Zhiyuan is still young, not yet seventeen, but Chen Yi listened to this young man's affirmation, his heart was full of joy, looking at Chen Biao who was frowning and winning, thinking that it should be the reason why Ning Zhiyuan was in a high position, with a convincing temperament, unlike this stunned person.
Ning Daguan will make it easy for people to ignore his age, maybe it is related to this era, there is no difference between people in their teens and fifties, they can marry underage girls into the family openly, and they can all enter the Shiji and the first, and the title of the gold list.
Walking on the road again, in the afternoon, he was not in a hurry to find the next city to spend the night, in Ningxia, he hoped that when he would go to a certain flat land, it would be safe, not yet, a little gap, because there were no ferocious wild animals.
"Miss Li, if you continue like this, your skin will be full of wrinkles before you get married." Ning Daguan and the carriage walked side by side, looking at Li Yuran's outstretched little head full of tiredness, knowing that she had been busy for so long, and she was busy working blindly.
"Does the little woman have wrinkles on her face?" Li Yuran looked at Ning Zhiyuan with strange eyes, and seemed to say disdainfully, what kind of eyes are you?
Ning Daguan looked at it very seriously, it really didn't, his skin seemed to be more crystal clear than when he first met, this is the advantage of being a female doctor? It's just that people can't really say the word beauty.
So he nodded earnestly.
Li Yuran's face changed, and he got back into the carriage, and an unconvinced voice came from the car in the middle of the sound, "Ning Gongzi really has good eyes." The tired head came out again.
"Ben Gongzi is indeed a good eye." Ning Daguan said with half-squinted eyes, thinking that Li Ran had looked in the mirror.
"What I just saw is a girl in a few years, or even a year and a half."
Li Yuran felt that this was Ning Zhiyuan's lack of confidence in her own medical skills, and suddenly she felt that the whole person was not very good, although she couldn't cure his disease temporarily, although she didn't know if she could cure it in the future, but it was still no problem to make her skin like a newborn baby, not to mention that this girl was born beautiful, how could she have wrinkles at a young age?
"Then Ning Gongzi's vision is even worse, he can look at these mysterious things." The girl said with a little resentment.
"Has the girl ever seen the saint?" Ning Daguan said, thinking of Chongzhen, who was getting old before he was twenty years old.
"You must know that manpower cannot go against the will of heaven, there is yin and yang in the world, the universe, day and night, that is, God tells me to do the right thing at the right time."
Li Yuran pricked up his ears and listened, and felt that there was a little truth in this, the matter of premature aging in the saint must be caused by the heavy burden of the world, unable to sleep at night, and working hard day and night, but the people are still poorly clothed and hungry, and I don't know if this Ning Gongzi sits in that position, the girl will be taken aback by herself.
"If the girl really forgets to sleep and eat for this matter, the years will go early, and Zhiyuan will be uneasy in her heart." Ning Daguan began to get serious, don't wait until he is not dead, this girl will do her best.
Li Yuran blinked her tired eyes, feeling that Ning Zhiyuan still had some conscience, and was silent, as a woman, she cared about her appearance, and began to reflect on herself.
"Is it okay for Yuran to return to Ningxiawei?" The girl said aloud.
“――――”
"This is the girl's freedom, Zhiyuan can let people send the girl back at any time." Ning Daguan was a little surprised when he heard this, but he still smiled, he didn't care, "But if the girl is reluctant to give up day and night like this in the future, she only needs to rest at the meridian hour."
Two quarters of an hour is enough for the girl to take a nap at noon, and at least an hour of sleep is enough. ”
What is the scientific basis for this, Ning Zhiyuan is not clear, but the truth that a large group of brick families called beasts in later generations must be a bit reliable, and he has always done this.
Li Yuran was in a trance for a moment, what she said just now was just a joke, wanting to see the adult's reaction, and from Ning Zhiyuan's answer, she only felt calm and meaningless, and even, more meaningless than herself, as for the way Ning Zhiyuan said that the seed rested for lunch, she would be skeptical, but there was no harm in trying.
Suddenly a smile appeared, "If I go back now, Jinglan will be unhappy." ”
Ning Daguan didn't understand what she meant, so he wanted to understand.
Looking at Ning Zhiyuan's puzzled expression, the woman smiled even brighter, "Jinglan asked me why I went to Jinling with you."
"And then?" Looking at Li Ran's expression, Ning Zhiyuan suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Yuran won't tell Childe," the girl said with a smile, and the tiredness on her face seemed to disappear.
Ning Daguan felt very helpless, he felt that he had dug a hole for himself, and he knew that he would casually say a reason, anyway, it was just a white lie, well, a lie, after all, it was still a lie.
If you don't say it, he won't ask, and he can't force her, he should have forced Jing Lan in Ningxia Wei, well, force it in bed, it's definitely okay.
Li Yuran retracted her head back into the carriage, she was alone in the carriage, she insisted on not using the maid, because she didn't need it, fatigue came up, but she didn't want to rest.
Ning Zhiyuan didn't know what the girl in the carriage was supporting her to continue to do these boring things, and it was the same in Ningxia Wei, maybe at first she was just grateful that she saved her, and then because of Shang Jinglan, of course, she also had her own interest in medical skills, which was indispensable.
Although it is very likely that it is a blind job.
And he also knows that in the future, he is only afraid that he will be bloodlet often, and then take all kinds of medicines, he doesn't care now, and he is willing to do it, but he was unwilling before, because he didn't like to do things that were not beneficial.
He will not be bound by Li Yuran's gratitude, she may have been doing the same boring thing for more than ten years, and she can't do it, last time she made a decision, Li Yuran didn't insist, at least on the surface, and this time Li Yuran's attitude is much more resolute, this is human nature, only do what you think you should do.
The road is driving towards the sky, and the carriage is also moving steadily, I have to admit that Ningxia Mansion is really very small, so small that it is not in a hurry to travel for a day, and it has reached the junction with Shaanxi, which is Guyuan.
Sun Yi is still here, and he did not send troops to suppress the anti-thieves, it can be seen that there is no time, Hong Chengchou and the anti-thieves are still in a stalemate, in fact, the real meaning is that the anti-thieves still have a way to escape, and when there is no way to escape, it is time.
Ning Zhiyuan took a deep look at Sun Yi who went out of the city to greet him, this is the chief soldier of Ningxia.
Theoretically speaking, Hong Chengchou's orders should be handed over directly to Sun Yi, after all, they are the ones who are really in charge of the military, but for some reason, Hong Chengchou wrote such an unceremonious order to Ning Zhiyuan, is this to show that he is stronger than himself?
At night, the moon rises and dotted with stars.
"Mr. Sun, remember to find the right time to send troops," Ning Zhiyuan said at the banquet, he did not advocate such a way of receiving the wind, but the soldiers liked it, because they could also have a hot meal.
Sun Yi is not a very powerful general, not arrogant, but the fact, he has been a soldier for many years, and he has climbed up step by step with his qualifications and military exploits, and he will flatter him, and he has done a lot, but he has always been a very responsible person.
It's just that he found that since this Lord Ning took office, he didn't need anything, An An could do things separately, he was very convinced that this young man who was much younger than him, and he nodded straight when he listened to Ning Zhiyuan's words.
He didn't feel anything wrong.
The banquet was dispersed, and Ning Daguan was still very restrained and didn't drink much wine, but he was a little drunk, speaking of wine, the more than 100,000 stone sweet potatoes he brought to Jinling this time can also be made into wine quickly.
Sweet potatoes, he knew that the planting method could not be hidden for a long time, and he never planned to hide it, so he was ready to start selling sweet potato seeds in large quantities, and he sent ten thousand stone sweet potatoes to the capital last time, and he was not afraid of Chongzhen's prying eyes.
If the current emperor is a Ming monarch who is ambitious for thousands of miles, has a common mind and is eloquent, and is similar to the emperor of the ages anyway, then he will definitely not do this, such as Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Shimin and others of Tang Taizong, who will definitely be in their hands as soon as they find such a thing as sweet potatoes, but Chongzhen will not.
Chongzhen is a poor man, he is ruthless enough and indecisive enough, he always makes the wrong choices at different moments.
In terms of treating officials, he has won the true inheritance of Zhu Yuanzhang, although those officials deserve to die, but they do not have Zhu Yuanzhang's determination to forcibly borrow money from businessmen when the treasury is empty, resulting in a shortage of income and no more soldiers to fight.
Ning Daguan just sent some sweet potatoes over at random, and they turned the page so satisfied, Ning Zhiyuan felt that if it was him, he would have to ask him face to face, and then grab it.
The residence is very well arranged, and the duty done by the people is not in the post station, it is a moderate courtyard, and there are only his personal soldiers and Li Yuran in it.
When the time is approaching, Ning Zhiyuan is a little tired, his routine is like this, even if he is in a spare time with a few girls, he will fall asleep before the hour, get up before the hour, and take a nap at noon.
He suddenly remembered Li Yuran, and he didn't know if the girl had fallen asleep when he listened to his words, so he changed his direction when he was about to walk towards the room.
asked the maid in the courtyard Li Yuran's residence, and then Ning Daguan walked over, the gentle moonlight, accompanied by the slightly cool weather, there was an unprecedented peace in his heart.
In February, it was spring, and Li Yuran's room was still lit, which made Ning Zhiyuan a little helpless, and he had to remind people to sleep, so he knocked on the door gently.
He decided that if the girl refused, he would knock her unconscious.
This is for her good, so that her youth can grow a little.
Ning Daguan kept clasping the door, and the light in the woman's room was on, but no one answered him for a long time, which made him frown.
Gently pushed the door, it was not locked, and with a bang, it opened, Ning Zhiyuan walked in slowly, and then he was stunned, and saw Li Yuran lying on the board and falling asleep, with a book pressed on his head, thinking that it should be a medical book.
For a while, Ning Zhiyuan thought about it, stood silently for a while, sighed secretly, walked to the board where the girl was asleep, and hugged Li Yuran horizontally, with a very light movement, so the girl did not wake up.
Under the light, Ning Daguan felt that this ordinary face was so attractive at the moment, and the bursts of medicinal fragrance emanating from the girl's delicate body also made him in a trance, and both of them were doing something that should not have been done.
He had the urge to bow his head and kiss it, which made him feel ridiculous, the night was darker, Ning Zhiyuan's head was a little dizzy, and smelling the girl's body fragrance was even more refreshing, and in the haze, Ning Daguan had a bad feeling again.
I'm going to get dizzy, hell, the timing is so coincidental.
Pushing the girl into his arms, his last move, he fainted. On the floor of a room somewhere in Guyuan, Li Yuran was overwhelmed by a young man named Ning Zhiyuan
In Daling City, Zu Dashou was anxiously waiting for the news of the last wave of reinforcements.
The reason why it is said that this is the last batch is because all the available mobile forces in Liaodong are now coming together, this is a huge reinforcement army, the number is about 40,000, twice as many as Huang Taiji's Houjin people, and the commander is called Zhang Chun.
Zhang Chun, as a general commanding 40,000 people, can be valued by Sun Chengzong, he is still very capable, unlike Wu Xiang, he is not in a hurry.
Advancing in a defensive formation along the way, Huang Taiji attacked halfway several times and returned in vain, which made him very depressed.
It's not that Zhang Chun's team can carry the Houjin cavalry, this is not very realistic, throughout the Ming Dynasty, there are more than 10,000 Guanning cavalry who can fight hard with the Houjin cavalry, but it is not in his hands, and the main reason for this situation is artillery.
After thousands of miles to the Daling River, Zhang Chun's style remained the same, shrinking his troops, building camp tents, setting up cannons, and waiting for Huang Taiji's attack. (To be continued.) )
