(There's another chapter, a little later.) ）

The arrival of the wives and concubines made Wang Yuan's life a lot more enjoyable, although Wang Yuan complained that they shouldn't come, but he also enjoyed the time they were by. The only thing I don't feel at ease is Lan Xinhui, who stayed in Chengdu and was pregnant, although Li Xin'er said that there was someone at home to take care of her, but Wang Yuan still reprimanded Li Xin'er with righteous words.

Li Xin'er didn't make a defense, as long as Wang Yuan didn't let her leave her side, Li Xin'er could endure anything. Wang Yuan is just venting her temper, she also knows that in fact, among the wives and concubines, if they are sincere to themselves, Li Xin'er is the first. Although she sometimes has a temper that is a little violent and full of jealousy, Wang Yuan understands that it is because of Li Xin'er's lack of security since she was a child. She's just a little more possessive of herself. But in fact, since Lan Xinhui and Qingyun'er became official members of the Wang family, Li Xin'er has not been mean to them.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Yuan ordered someone to call Liu Jun back from Huichuan, and the family spent a reunion night together. In the evening, after eating the soup balls called 'Yuan Buluoni' by the Tang Dynasty, I asked Li Mi to visit the lanterns on the streets and alleys of Netzhou, drink and guess boxing, and indulge in joy until midnight.

When the full moon approached the window, Wang Yuan sat on the futon with Li Xin'er in his arms, looking at the moon from the window, and the two recalled the things that happened on the first night of last year almost at the same time.

"Twelve Niang, you were chased and killed by Jin Wuwei and fled to Yong'an Fang on the night of Shangyuan last year, do you remember?" Wang Yuan looked at the full moon in the sky and said in a low voice.

"How do you not remember? If you hadn't saved me, I would have died that night. A year has passed, but I didn't expect that now we are already in Wangzhou, thousands of miles away from Chang'an. Li Xin'er looked at Wang Yuan and smiled.

"Yes, I was a small farmer at the beginning, and the night I met you, I risked killing your head to save you. I didn't expect to be calculated by you later, and I was almost killed by Luo Yimen's people. Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"Is Erlang still worried about this? The slave used this life to repay Erlang for saving his life, and I hope Erlang doesn't mind this. I actually couldn't help it at that time. Li Xin'er said in a low voice.

Wang Yuan hugged the woman next to him and smiled: "I don't blame you for a long time, you have promised each other, what else can I say?" Speaking of which, I was just a penniless man, and you were willing to marry me in order to save me, which was already a very courageous act. And if I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have met many people, so many things happened. There is no such thing as today. ”

Li Xin'er said in a strange voice: "Yes, you can't meet my master anymore, isn't that even more regrettable?" ”

Wang Yuan was surprised: "How does this sound awkward. ”

Li Xin'er sighed: "Don't pretend to be confused, blind people can see that there is affection between you and Master, can't you see it when we can't see it?" Master has changed a lot, she was not such a person before, she was clean and self-conscious, she was not close to me, even if I was an apprentice, she was not close to me, and she severely punished me if I made a mistake. But after meeting you, she is so tolerant of you, I have never seen her so indulgent to a person. ”

Wang Yuan smiled bitterly: "You mean that I am full of bad problems, and your master has long been displeased with me, right?" ”

Li Xin'er shook her head and said, "Don't interrupt, you know what I'm talking about." Jiro, I'm not trying to chew my tongue, what should happen will happen naturally. Actually, I also hope that Master can be with us forever, and I don't mind you and her at all. ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "But your master minds serving a man with his apprentice, and your master is a person who respects etiquette." ”

Li Xin'er was silent for a long time and said, "Erlang, if possible, I am willing to leave you and let the master be with you." Master has been lonely and miserable in this life, and I hope she is really happy. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and smiled: "What are you talking about?" How can you think that? Is it not to turn a man to unrighteousness? ”

Li Xin'er sighed: "I know it's inappropriate, but this is really what I really think in my heart." I am willing to give everything for the sake of Master and you. Master has been avoiding me for the past two days, and I know that she feels guilty, but as a woman, I understand her feelings. ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense, the matter between me and your master can be natural, and if you say something like this again, I will be angry." Sleep, don't think about it. ”

Li Xin'er said: "Don't say it, I want to go back to Chengdu tomorrow, Hui'er needs me to take care of it, this is your first child, if something goes wrong, I can't forgive my guilt." Qing'er and Zi'er stay with you, and they can also help when they fight, and they can serve you in normal times. After the war, Zi'er will also marry into the door. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "What I listen to you is, you don't want to stay here and embarrass your master, I know, you are a kind woman." You do need to go back, as a housewife, you shouldn't be here, you need to be in charge of the family. Tomorrow you're leaving, what are we talking about here? Spring Festival is worth a thousand dollars, let's go to bed and do something interesting. ”

……

The days flew by, and after the Shangyuan Festival, although there was no military action, Wang Yuan was busy for a moment. In addition to paying close attention to the movements of the soldiers and horses of the Tubo State and Nanzhao, Wang Yuan also had to make serious thoughts and preparations for the means of warfare, the surrounding terrain, the route of the march, the training of recruits, and other aspects of the upcoming battle of Yaozhou.

The defeat in the Battle of Lushui was that the army was attacked on the way to recover Yaozhou, and Wang Yuan would never turn his head in Yaozhou again. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to draw a topographic map, choose a route for the march, and do a good job of reconnaissance before the battle.

Although there is an anti-poison mask to fight against the poisonous miasma attack of the Nanzhao soldiers, this is far from enough. Fighting in the deep mountains and dense forests, the Nanzhao barbarian soldiers obviously had the advantage of geographical advantages, while the advantage of the Jiannan army was gone. The brute soldiers can flexibly shuttle through the forest valleys, but the soldiers of the Jiannan Army do not have this ability, especially the cavalry is useless. These are nerve-wracking questions.

Wang Yuan believed that the ideal state of engagement was that Ge Luofeng would defend Yaozhou to the death, and for siege warfare, Wang Yuan was not afraid. To this end, he studied the wreckage of the abandoned building left by the defeat of the Tubo army, and compared it with the catapult used in the Tang army, improved some structural drawbacks, and made the catapult in the Tang army more powerful, in preparation for the attack on Yaozhou.

On the twenty-third day of the first month, Yang Guozhong's letter arrived from the capital, and his letter was accompanied by a letter from Mrs. Qin Guo and two large carts of things. Yang Guozhong's letter praised Wang Yuan's two victories after his arrival, but it also brought bad news, that is, the news about the failure of the previous crusade against Nanzhao in the capital had been full of storms, and Xuanzong seemed to have known about it, and Yang Guozhong was under great pressure. In view of the fact that Yaozhou has not yet been recovered, Yang Guozhong cannot defend himself at all, so he urged Wang Yuan to recover Yaozhou as soon as possible and attack Nanzhao, otherwise he is afraid that he will be openly attacked by Li Linfu and others. The impatience between the lines is overflowing.

Wang Yuan can understand Yang Guozhong's situation, and he also knows the pressure he is under, and he doesn't care much about the emotions expressed in Yang Guozhong's faith. Fortunately, although Yang Guozhong was in a hurry, he did not forget to remind himself to work steadily and steadily, and not to take risks and lead to the loss of his previous achievements.

Different from Yang Guozhong's letter, Mrs. Qin's letter was full of longing, shushh Compared with the affectionate and longing of the letter to Wang Yuan, the letter from Mrs. Qin Guo to her son is an image of a strict mother's teachings, and she is very strict with him, warning him not to get carried away because of a victory, not to think that his status is noble and inconsiderate of others, and to follow the teachings of his righteous father everywhere.

In addition to the letters, there are two large carts of things transported from the capital, which are delivered by Mrs. Qin Guo from the capital with the letter, and the things in the car are all things for food and clothing, but there is a hammer in it, which is a golden bright light armor. At a glance, I knew that this was a brand-new bright light armor, the appearance was plated with gold, and the gold was dazzling. The parts of the armor are extremely exquisite, and they are made of fine iron, and the workmanship is very exquisite. The key parts have also been thickened.

After this golden Mingguang armor was taken out, everyone was surprised, this armor was worth a lot of money, and Mrs. Qin Guo could use her thoughts. Looking at the size, it is definitely not for Liu Jun, Liu Jun prefers silver, and his armor is a small silver-plated armor, so this should be an armor for Wang Yuan.

Of course, Wang Yuan knew that it was for himself, because the letter mentioned it, but no one could read the letter. After the armor is put on, the size is as suitable as tailor-made, the gold armor is shining, the red tassel tassel on the helmet, and the red leather wind on the body, the whole person is like a god. Wang Yuan secretly thought, thanks to her knowing her body well. The size of this armor must have been personally controlled by Mrs. Qin Guo, and it was not in vain that she slept with this amorous lady so many times.

In addition to the armor, what also satisfied Wang Yuan was several large bags of medicinal materials. Each package is marked with its purpose, what water and soil are not adapted, what is the stomach discomfort, what mosquito bites, what poisonous insect bites, what swords and burns, what heat stroke, typhoid fever, dizziness and brain fever, etc. Moreover, these medicines are pills or packets of small medicine packets, indicating the dosage and so on, which can be described as careful.

Wang Yuan seemed to be able to imagine the scene of Mrs. Qin Guo driving a gorgeous carriage all over Chang'an, asking the famous doctors of Chang'an to help prepare these medicines. It is even possible that the imperial doctor in the palace will be busy back and forth by this lady of the Qin State. Wang Yuan was very moved in his heart, he couldn't completely attribute Mrs. Qin's move to doing it for the benefit of the Yang family, Wang Yuan could feel the love in it, that was certain.
