Since the beginning of March, there has not been a drop of rain in Surabaya County.

At this time of year in previous years, the rainy season has already begun, but this year......

The water level in Surabaya has dropped by more than half. In many places, the land has dried up and cracked, like the open mouth of a baby. The rice is wilted, which makes people look sad. In many places, they even began to ask for rain, but God did not open their eyes, and it was useless.

Finally, in April, the sporadic rain began to fall.

But with little success, it simply cannot solve the immediate need. Fortunately, for several days, the sky was gloomy, which made people look forward to it again.

Xiao He has been recently, but he is proud of the spring breeze.

Last year, when he and his friends were nostalgic for the Xi Pavilion, they happened to meet a woman named Manman.

is a descendant of the ancient Yue people, and she was born with the gentle beauty of a Jiangnan woman. It is said that this woman was originally a Huiji, and her father was still a local official in Zhuji. Because of Xiang Ji's attack on Yingguo's siblings in Ramie Mountain, the barbarian father was implicated and abandoned the city. The door was raided, and the barbarian went from an official lady to a prisoner, and then he was sold into a habit and came to Pei County.

To be honest, it's not the kind of posture that is barbaric and the country is overwhelmed.

But adhering to a good family education, she is proficient in music and rhythm, can sing and dance, and has a unique touching temperament. Xiao He is over forty years old, long past the age of throwing flowers and grass. In addition to reading on weekdays, I got better at music. After listening to the song of the barbarian fuqin, I actually had admiration. Later, from admiration. It became an admiration. Hiding from his family, he ransomed his body for the barbarian and placed him in a separate village.

He is now the county governor of Pei County, and all the official affairs come from him.

You only need to remove the name of the savage place from the list of Xi Niang in the Xi Pavilion, and then do some tricks, no one will do it for a Xi Niang. Ran to embarrass the county. As for Li Fang, he basically ignores official business, and is thinking about how to drill the camp to get promoted to official wealth. Therefore, it is easy for Xiao He to give the barbarian an identity and add a household registration. It's very simple.

It was getting dark, and Xiao He finished processing the last official document.

Don't look at Chen She's vigorous quarrel between Surabaya County and Chen County, but in fact, for Pei County, it seems a little far away.

Xiao why don't you be optimistic about Chen She!

As long as this war does not burn to Pei County, even if the sky falls, what does it have to do with him Xiao He? Besides, if the sky really falls, he Xiao He can't stand it alone, right? When it's time to die, it's natural to die. It's better to be happy. Live each day well.

The imperial court came to collect the edict, and Pei County needed to allocate another 300 people.

This made Xiao He very difficult, to know what to levie. They have all been requisitioned. If you want to ask for it again, it won't be so easy.

Folks, who doesn't know whom.

Xiao He really didn't make a decision, but he couldn't help but obey the edict. Gritting his teeth and squeezing out another three hundred names, Xiao He shook his head and smiled bitterly. If this edict goes down, I don't know how many villagers will curse behind their backs. But. He couldn't help it.

Packed up the list. Xiao He looked at the sky outside, picked up a bamboo stalk from the corner of the house and walked out.

Look at the sky. It seems like it's going to rain.

was thinking about it, as if he wanted to fulfill Xiao He's conjecture. The rain was pouring down. Xiao He was at the gate of the county ya, holding up the bamboo hairs. Standing on the street, he hesitated for a moment and walked towards an alley. To be honest, I can't live with my old wife at home. gave birth to children for himself, not to mention most of his life, and when he was injured, he took good care of him and did his duty as a wife.

And what about yourself......

But this food and color is also the great desire of people.

Xiao He still chose to go to the barbarian residence......

Savagely cook a good dish, drink some wine, talk about music, sing poetry, if life is like this, what do you want?

Turning into the alley, Xiao He walked inside. == Count it up. It's been more than a hundred years, to say the least. The branches of the ground are luxuriant, like a large umbrella. Covering the house of Fan Xu. In the past, Fan Xu's home was nothing more than a white thatched house. Now it is already a blue tile and white wall, which is very magnificent. There is a main hall in the middle, and there are two wings on each side. The rammed earth wall more than one person high encloses the courtyard, and the courtyard gate is not closed, so you can smell the smell of meat wafting from the courtyard from a distance. When people smell it, they can't help but move their index fingers.

Fan Hao is now a princess, and his identity is even higher than Xiao He.

At the moment, he was sitting in the guest seat, chatting and laughing with a man. Although he hadn't seen him for two or three years, Xiao He still recognized it at a glance that that person was Liu Ji.

It stands to reason that Liu Ji is a wanted criminal.

But this is Fan Xu's home, who will come to investigate?

"Mr. Xiao, you can wait until you come!"

Liu Bang saw Xiao He from a distance, so he hurriedly stood up and greeted him. Xiao He didn't give Liu Bang a good look! He was sure that the abduction of the barbarians had nothing to do with Fan Xu. Although Fan Xu is shrewd, he will not use such methods. Except for Liu Bang, no one else here can think of such an idea. Xiao He ignored Liu Ji, walked into the courtyard by himself, and sat down opposite Fan Xu.

"Fan Tuzi, what do you mean by that?"

Completely regarded Liu Bang as nothing, Xiahou Ying was so angry that he stepped forward to want a theory, but was stopped by Liu Bang. I saw Liu Bang wave his hand and motioned for Xiahou Ying and Chen He to go out and watch. And he, with a smile on his face, sat back on the main seat and poured Xiao He a glass of wine.

Fan Hao was a little inexplicable, "Mr. Xiao, what's wrong with me?" Liu Ji is back, didn't I invite you to drink, what else could it mean? ”

Liu Bang suppressed Fan Hao and raised his wine glass, "Mr. Xiao, this matter is all Liu Ji's fault, and it has nothing to do with Tuzi." Liu Ji was just worried that Mr. would not come, so he resorted to some small means. But don't worry, Sir, Miss Barbarian has not been wronged in the slightest. Whoever the dares to bully Miss Barbarian, even if it's my brother, won't spare him. Liu Ji also had no choice, so he asked Mr. Xiao to ...... Forgive me. ”

These words made Xiao He laugh.

"Liu Ji, since you have already fled, why do you want to come back?"

Liu Bang said: "Pei County is Liu Ji's home, even if Liu Ji goes farther, he can't forget his hometown fathers, and he can't forget that I am a member of Pei County."

Besides, this time is different from the past, why doesn't Liu Ji dare to come back? ”

"You're not afraid that I'll arrest you?"

"If Mr. wants to take Liu Ji, Liu Ji is willing to tie ...... It's just that, in this way, I am afraid that the people of Pei County will suffer, Xiao He was stunned, "Liu Ji, what do you mean by this?" ”

In the past two years, Liu Ji has been running around and has a more or less understanding of the outside form. Sir is a wise man, can't he see the changes in this world? ”

Xiao He sneered, "It's nothing more than a group of rabble making trouble." What are you afraid of? ”

"Hehe, Mr. may regard them as a rabble, but Liu Ji thinks that those people can't say it, and they will make a big career.

Maybe Mr. doesn't know that Chen Shi has divided his troops into two ways. One route went east by Ge Ying to welcome Qin Jia and Zhu Jishi; On the other hand, he personally led the troops, bypassing Kuxian and preparing to ambush the Qin army in Laixiang. The people of Chen County, my big Chu, are also eager to try. ”

Xiao He was stunned. looked at Liu Ji in surprise.

On the side, Fan Xuqi said: "No, I heard that Chen Shi is still in Qian County, and he is leading the people to prepare to go east to Lingbi." ”

"Oh, that's Wu Guang's suspicious soldiers, just to confuse the defenders of Xiangxian County...... When the Qin army of Xiangxian County came to understand, Chen County was afraid that it had been lost. ”

"Liu Ji, how do you know so many things?"

In Xiao He's heart, he suddenly became vigilant.

Liu Ji laughed. "Mr. Dissatisfaction, Liu Ji is now a member of the Righteous Army. My teacher Zhang Ergong, I don't know if Mr. has heard of it?

Liu Ji is here. It was entrusted by Zhang Ergong to preside over the affairs of Surabaya and Donghai counties. Ge Ying led the troops, and in the next two days, they would converge with the Qin and Zhu departments, and when the time came, the people of Chu would definitely open the city to greet them. I came here today because I was worried about the impact of the war in Pei County, and on the other hand. It's for Mr. and Butcher. What does Mr. think of seeking a fortune? ”

The name of Zhang Er. Xiao He naturally heard of it.

And Xiao He also knew that Liu Ji had indeed stayed under Zhang Ermen. But the teacher and the student said. But this is the first time I have heard of it. As for what Liu Ji said about the host of Donghai County in Surabaya County, Xiao He automatically ignored it. Who is this Liu Ji, doesn't he still understand?

He gave birth to a good mouth, and when he bragged about the bulls, he could blow the sky out.

However, seeing Liu Ji's confident appearance, Xiao He felt that what he said might not be all false. Indeed, now that Fu Li is making a lot of trouble, if that Ge Ying and Qin Zhu converge together, their power will skyrocket, and it will definitely affect Pei County.

After all, whether it's a concern or a Fu Li, it's too close to Pei County.

As long as Pengcheng and Xiapi are conquered, it will directly threaten the safety of Pei County. Moreover, the proverb that although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu, it has been like a sharp sword hanging above his head for many years, always reminding Xiao He. This is also one of the reasons why Xiao He never dared to get too close to Daqin.

When I turned my head to look, I saw that the door of the small courtyard had been closed.

Xiao He looked at Liu Ji and said in a deep voice: "Liu Ji, even if Ge Ying can join Qin Jia Zhu Jishi, don't forget, in the Sihong area, there is not only one Yingzhuang. Lou Cang, there are still thousands of elite soldiers under Guang Wujun, and if he really wants to fight, Ge Ying is afraid that he is not Lou Cang's opponent. ”

Fan Xu's face changed slightly.

After a long time, he sighed lightly, "Big brother, what Mr. Xiao said is good. You haven't seen the soldiers and horses in Loucang, although Ge Ying was also born in Loucang, and the military camp in Daze Township turned against him. But in fact, the real elite of Loucang is stationed in Loucang locally. Although the number of people is small, it is indeed well-trained and has strong combat effectiveness. I have seen the Qin army in northern Xinjiang, and to be honest, the elite of the building warehouse is especially better than the Qin army. ”

For Liu Bang, Lou Cang and Liu Kan are the two terms he is most reluctant to mention.

Seeing that Fan Hao and Xiao He both praised the soldiers and horses in Lou Cangdi, Liu Bang only felt uncomfortable in his heart for a while.

He sneered and said, "If Liu Kan is in Loucang, maybe it's really hard to say." But as far as I know, Liu Kan has not been heard from since the end of last year. Without Liu Kan, Loucang would be a tiger without teeth and claws. You regard the Loucang army as a tiger, and as far as I am concerned, the Loucang is at your fingertips...... Hehe, as for the elite Loucang army, maybe when the time comes, they will have to listen to my Liu Ji's command.

In three days at most, I will be able to take the warehouse! ”

When Fan Hao and Xiao He heard this, they couldn't help but be surprised.

Liu Bang said triumphantly: "Tuzi, Mr. Xiao, where to go now, I think I should make a decision." ”

Fan Hao said: "Big brother, where does this start. Whether you can take the warehouse or not, my butcher will listen to you...... It's just that I have a request. ”

"Speak!"

"If you take the warehouse, please spare the Liu family."

Liu Bang replied without hesitation: "What's so difficult about this? Anyway, Liu Kan and I are also relatives, how can it be detrimental to his family?

Mr. Xiao, what about you? ”

Today's state is a bit bad, the transition plot, but it has to be written, it's sad.

The chapter the day before yesterday, plus the two chapters yesterday, makes a total of three chapters. I'll adjust it, make up one chapter a day, and add another chapter, and take it as interest.

It's a little rough today, and I went to sleep......
