Chapter Fifty-Nine: Sitting in Pingcheng (Part II)
Shi Lang is gone, and almost all the elites of Yi Guo are secretly gathering towards the Axe Broken Gorge, and this time it is really a national army.
If according to the previous strategy to connect Fanbang, He Ran still has some concerns about the use of troops, afraid that Zhao Guo will wave his troops to smash Zhongcheng after seeing Yi Guo's intentions, and now with Xiao Xiao's strategy, there is no need to worry, Yi Guo is desperate to fight with Shunguo, in this case, if Zhao Min stabs Yi Guo from behind, then even Zhao people will be cold, and Zhao Min will no longer have to mix in front of the princes of the world. Even if Zhao Min is crazy and has to do this, then Yi Guo now has strategic depth, and the army defending the city in the newly acquired land is almost trained, and with the little force in Zhao Guo's hands now, it will not form much of a threat, and the situation will not be so bad that it is irretrievable.
Walking on the streets of Pingcheng accompanied by the city guard Xi Yu, He Ran had no anxiety in his heart at the moment.
The people of Pingcheng have great love for this military advisor who implemented the new policy, and they congratulate each other, and the eyes of the people who are crowded are full of excitement and respect.
"Now that the old man has admired the military advisor, he has lived so much, and he has never seen the people love any official to this extent." Xi Yu sighed.
He Ran smiled and waved his hand: "This is all your credit, although the new deal is of great benefit to the people, but if the ruling officials themselves are not right, then the new deal will be out of shape no matter how good it is, it is precisely because the old man really loves the people and gives full play to the gist of the new deal, Baixin will put this gratitude on me." ”
"Alas, don't hide it from the military advisor, I haven't been able to let go of this heart before, lest the military advisor's implementation of the new deal is a temporary move to buy people's hearts, and when the overall situation is stable, the new deal will be slowly withdrawn, and now it seems that I am too worried. The old man often teaches his children not to live in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, hahaha, I don't want to be old but do this kind of thing. Xi Yu laughed self-deprecatingly, and there was happiness in his laughter.
He Ran looked at him with a smile and said: "The overall situation is just the beginning of stability, the new policy was implemented here earlier, and riots against the new policy still occur from time to time in some places, isn't it too early for the old gentleman to say this, in case I really take back the new policy in a few days." ”
Xi Yu stroked his beard and said: "The military advisor laughed, how can this little thing not be seen, the new deal has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in many places, if the military adviser wants to take back the new deal in the future, the chaos will definitely be even worse than before the implementation of the new deal, I dare to say that all the people will be opposed, the military advisor is a wise man, how can he do such a thing?" ”
He Ran laughed and said: "The new deal is still better than 100,000 male soldiers, and others in the land of Yiguo will not want to get involved, and whoever dares to commit it is afraid that women and children will have to fight with it." ”
Xi Yu was a little excited and said: "Who dares to invade Pingcheng, the old man is the first to stand on the head of the city, although he is unable to draw the bow, but he has the strength to throw a few bricks and stones, and he will stone them to death if he goes down without bricks and stones." ”
He Ran smiled and said: "Although the old gentleman is a well-educated sage, this fierce nature is still better than a hero, and he can die for the sake of righteousness. ”
Xi Yu's old face turned red and said, "The military advisor must not mention the events of the day, every time I think of my old face, I feel feverish." ”
Mrs. Nuan Yu on the side asked curiously, "What are you talking about?" ”
Xi Yu waved his hand again and again and said: "Madame, don't be funny anymore, there will be no place to put the old man's face when I say it, I have always felt guilty for being so difficult to be a military advisor that day." ”
Before He Ran could speak, suddenly there was a great chaos in the crowd on the side of the road in front of him, and he hurriedly blocked in front of Mrs. Nuanyu, and without waiting for Hong Yan to order, all the guards drew their swords in their hands to protect the military division and others in the middle, and they were on guard in all directions.
Soon someone came to report that two people wanted to assassinate the military division, but when they took out their sharp blades, they were seen by the people on the side, and everyone rushed up to restrain them, one of them was killed on the spot by the angry people, and the other had only one breath left.
Xi Yu's face was gloomy, and he said hatefully: "Hold that person up for me!" It's a blessing for him that he can't slow down this breath! Then he said to He Ran embarrassedly, "The military advisor asks for the crime of dereliction of duty." ”
He Ran smiled happily: "The assassin is the most difficult to prevent, this is not a dereliction of duty, but it is right to praise the old gentleman, the king's escort can not be said to be strict, but there are still assassins, the old gentleman governs the people well, the people of the whole city are willing to be my guard, and He Ran can walk alone on the street in the future." ”
Hearing what the military advisor said, Xi Yu felt a little relieved, but said that he would not let him continue to shop, and He Ran obediently took Mrs. Nuan Yu back to the mansion.
Before entering the mansion, he saw Xi Qun running out in a hurry, and when he saw him, he happily worshipped: "The villain is about to look for the military division, and I don't want the military division to come back." ”
"I figured you should be here in a few days." He Ran said with a smile.
Xi Qun saluted Mrs. Nuan Yu again, and before he had time to talk to them, he followed the military advisor into the inner hall.
"Sit down, Squire Xi." He Ran said with a smile.
Xi Qun grinned and said: "As soon as the military advisor met, he made fun of the villain, and the villain was about to tell the military advisor, I will never do this broken official again, no matter what, ask the military advisor to let me come back and wait." ”
"Okay, don't be a villain, Madame is not an outsider, you don't have to be formal, hehe, you didn't learn anything else from me, this resignation is a good thing."
Mrs. Nuan Yu smiled when she heard this.
Xi Qun sighed and said, "This time the villain ...... I know completely that I am not an official, this crime is really not something that ordinary people can bear, even Lin Cainu said so. ”
He Ran laughed and said: "This talented woman Lin is too faceless to give you, how can you say that you are also a dignified envoy." ”
Xi Qun smiled: "I don't dare to be an envoy in front of a talented girl. Speaking of this, he remembered something, and was about to open his mouth with a bitter face, but after looking at Mrs. Nuanyu, she closed her mouth again.
Mrs. Nuan Yu got up with a smile and said, "You report to the military advisor, I'll go to rest." ”
He Ran hurriedly pulled her to sit down and scolded Xi Qun: "What can't you say in front of your wife?" It's better not to use your mind in front of your wife, I'm embarrassed if I don't have it, I can't hide anything in my heart! ”
Xi Qun smiled awkwardly: "Yes!" Lin Cainu...... Asking the military advisor to paint her a thousand paintings is considered a reward for her going to Dechang. ”
"What! A thousand?! He Ran looked at him in disbelief.
"Yes, it must also be painted by hand, not by others, let alone ...... You can't even sloppy it. Xi Qun smiled bitterly and explained Lin Yan's conditions.
"It's going to take a lifetime." Mrs. Nuan Yu said sideways.
He Ran pointed at Xi Qun and said, "Stupid to you!" It's really straightforward and doesn't move at all, can you say this in front of your lady? I just said that you mean that those military affairs can be casually talked about in front of the wife, and this kind of thing can only be told to me behind my back, which is not understood? ”
Even Xi Qun couldn't help laughing at this time, he could really see that the military advisor was joking with his wife again.
Mrs. Nuan Yu shook her head with a smile and said, "It's really not easy to be an errand under you, Xi Qun, you better go to be a waiter." ”
The three of them burst into laughter again.
