Chapter 10 (II)
The spring is bright, He Ran took Mingqin tea to wander in the valley, it was already a busy farming season, most of the valley people were busy, because the tax was very light, the fields in the valley were enough, those who were busy in the garden in front of the house and behind the house saw the military division walking by and smiled and saluted, and the familiar ones also greeted warmly, not at all like the grass people met the high-ranking officials, He Ran also happily laughed with them,
Mingqin Chaduo felt this strong family affection, and there was an indescribable joy and warmth, and whispered to him: "Since you became famous in the grassland, I have also heard people talk about Zangxian Valley, but I didn't care at all, and now I know that this is really a blessed land in the world, not to mention anything else, only the friendliness and true feelings between people make me feel very down-to-earth." ”
When He Ran wanted to speak, he saw a waiter from the Ministry of Rites hurrying towards him, so he led Mingqin Tea to an open space and waited.
After the waiter of the Ministry of Rites approached and saluted, he said in a low voice: "Yu military division, send a message to the border pass, Zhao Guo wants to send envoys, and the king will send subordinates to ask the military advisor for advice." ”
He Ran smiled slightly and said: "I expected that there would be an envoy from the Zhao Kingdom coming, and it came so quickly, you go back to the king, we should repay you with courtesy, and King Zhao should treat this envoy how he treated my king in the first place." ”
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites was stunned, then understood, and said with a smile: "The intention of the military advisor is to invite the king to hunt too." ”
He Ran shook his head with a smile, and said: "You don't have to poke people's faces so much, it's just the right time in spring, it's better to let the king go out to play, just use the excuse that the two countries of Xiang and Qi are making more and more trouble, and the king has already set a schedule to mediate for them in person, and then you can set off when you meet the envoy."
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites smiled dumbly and said: "This is longer than hunting, I think the envoys of Zhao State can't afford to wait." ”
He Ran said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "You have to make careful arrangements, you can't let ......" Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, "Forget it, don't be so troublesome, you go back and ask the king to leave immediately, avoid the envoy, and don't see him at all." ”
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites understood and said, "The lower official understands, so I will go back and make arrangements." And he gave a salute, and hurried away.
Mingqin Chaduo asked in a low voice: "You sent King Yi out with a few casual words." ”
He Ran blinked and said: "It's a good thing for me to let him travel, how can he be regarded as a send, he can also be happy to go, how comfortable is such a king." ”
Mingqin Chaduo bit her lips and looked at him, and it wasn't until this moment that she really realized how powerful her husband was.
At the gate of Yixin Garden, He Ran stopped the green rope who was hurrying out of the garden with his two female companions, and asked with a frown: "What are you busy with all day long?" ”
Green Rope raised her chin and said, "I won't tell you." The two female companions behind him covered their mouths and smiled,
He Ran snorted and said: "I don't know it rarely, anyway, you won't have anything serious, let me tell you, I went to plead with the Zhenyuan Immortal Master to intercede for you, but people still refuse to accept you, saying that you are too stupid, but I am now the protector of the Holy Maiden Sect, and I can reluctantly accept you as a disciple." ”
Green Rope puffed up and said, "This promise, I'll go to her to settle accounts." He took two steps and looked back and asked, "You have really become a Dharma protector." ”
He Ran nodded proudly and said, "Hurry up and decide whether to worship or not, there will be no such shop in this village, and I won't accept it if you want to worship me as a teacher in the future." ”
"Phew." Green Rope took a sip disdainfully, and walked towards the western slope with two female companions,
Looking at the back of the green rope, Mingqin Chaduo asked in a slightly embarrassed whisper: "She...... She's still a virgin. ”
He Ran said: "Yes, when she first came, she felt unstable like you, and she always wanted to marry me in a hurry, but now that the foundation is solid, she is not in a hurry." ”
Mingqin Chaduo blushed and quipped: "She's not in a hurry, isn't it your turn to be in a hurry." ”
He Ran smiled ambiguously: "I'm not in a hurry, I'm even less anxious when you come, she can do whatever she likes, just feel happy." ”
Mingqin Chaduo didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly diverted the topic and pulled him to continue painting the house.
The next day, Shi Lang rushed back, and he didn't even return home, so he came directly to He Ran to discuss matters, and there was also Hong Qi,
"Why did you get to Heijo?" He Ran looked at Hong Yan and asked,
Hong Yan looked a little unnatural and said: "I heard that the military division is going back to the division, and I guess that most of the military divisions are going to Pingcheng to meet the military divisions first, so in order to serve the military divisions earlier, I ran there to wait." ”
A smile appeared in He Ran's eyes, and he said, "You are still far from lying in front of me, I'm afraid that going there to serve me is the real thing if I fake Mr. Xi." ”
A personal guard who had a very good relationship with the red man coaxed: "I think the military advisor is also wrong, and it is true that serving Mr. Xi is also a daughter who pretends to serve others." ”
Everyone burst into laughter, and they couldn't say a word of embarrassment.
In the council hall in the valley, He Ran briefly recounted the past, and when he talked about meeting with the White House Bomi, Shi Lang frowned slightly,
He Ran said with a smile: "In the future, you can avoid the war with Zhao State, I and King Feng have already made some plans, you just have to sit in Pingcheng." ”
Shi Lang was a little embarrassed and said, "This ...... It's too hard for you, I was going to fight on your behalf, but I didn't want you to clean up Xin Yan Tuliang in the winter. ”
He Ran laughed at himself: "Your lives are better than mine, I don't even bother to complain." ”
Shi Lang couldn't help but smile and said, "Then don't complain, when are you going to use troops against Zhao." ”
"It's best to start a war in the autumn, and in nearly half a year, the king should be able to transfer troops and horses."
Shi Lang said thoughtfully: "The most difficult thing should be the excuse to send troops, and at this time, King Zhao will not easily give us this excuse." ”
"I'm really worried about this matter, and I've already discussed with Dazai that the border gate will no longer investigate and punish the Zhao people who cross the border."
Shi Lang shook his head slightly, "Zhao Guo can endure this breath. ”
"Then you ......" He Ran was about to ask him for advice, but he stopped his mouth in time and said: "Then don't worry about it, now Zhao and Shun are fighting with each other is our most idle time, the Great Forbidden Lord will return to the grassland in a month, you can rest in the valley for a few more days, send away the Great Forbidden Lord, you help me dispatch soldiers and horses from all over the country, 40,000 elite soldiers should be enough, and the rest of the matter will not be taken care of." ”
Although he had long known that the war with his homeland was inevitable, when the war was put on the agenda, Shi Lang still had some bad feelings in his heart, but fortunately, He Ran could understand his mood and abide by his previous promise, and did not let him do anything too embarrassing, and returned to the mansion in a restless mood, the bright smiles of the little princess and his two sisters quickly cleared the haze in his heart, and secretly told himself that no matter what, he also wanted to keep his family safe, and the battle of Zhao was very important, and he could not slack off in the slightest, He Ran could be regarded as benevolent and righteous to himself, I have to share his worries for him, and after making up his mind, his mood gradually relaxed.
It has been three days since He Ran came to find Shi Lang again, and the envoys of Zhao have already gone back, and if they can't see King Yi, they naturally can't get his permission to visit Yi Guo's vassals, and when King Yi comes back, it's far away, what else can he do if he doesn't go back?
He Ran didn't actually come to find Shi Lang, he was looking for the little princess, he wanted to give her a surprise, those things that existed in Xiangguo were escorted back, in addition to the gift that King Fan gave to his sister, he mainly wanted to show off Yun'er in front of her,
The little princess was really happy to see Yun'er, and Yun'er also seemed very affectionate to her, it seemed that she remembered the old man.
He Ran was very generous, and offered to lend Yun'er to play with her for a few days.
The little princess felt that He Ran was getting better and better, and after many days, she learned that all the girls in Yixin Garden were very scared when they saw Yun'er for the first time, and he was not allowed to leave Yun'er in the garden, so he thought of fostering Yun'er here first.
He Ran began his happy days of wandering again, and the only serious thing he did was to pull Shi Lang to talk about the scriptures and the Fa from time to time
During this period, Jing Yong on the battlefield made one last effort, and after spreading the false news that the Yi army soldiers designated Yang, he withdrew his troops without giving Shunguo time to verify, and he withdrew for a hundred miles, and he didn't even want the three cities that he had won in a bloody battle.
Bai Gongbo just smiled contemptuously at this, and later didn't even bother to listen to the intelligence of the Zhao army, he knew He Ran too well, and he didn't attack Zhao immediately after he went back, which means that he saw through his plan to pull the country to join the melee and has insight into the current situation between the three kingdoms, in this case, how could he delay for so many days and suddenly point to Dingyang, so no matter what everyone says, he just doesn't send a single soldier to regain the lost territory,
Jing Yubai was busy, and when he saw that he couldn't lure the enemy, he had to return to the army to confront Shunguo, and he had a boring conversation.
It is not only Jing Yu who is embarrassed, but the entire Zhao State is in embarrassment, the joy of eliminating internal troubles makes them a little fluttering, even Zhao Min is excited to think that the day has come for Zhao to regain its majesty, it is no wonder that Qi Guo has joined the camp against Xiping, and the deadly threat from Xiping does not have to worry for the time being, Kang Guo Yuchen is in power for a while and cannot see the signs of dissipation, and the prairie is in the process of collapse, not to mention complete control of the grassland, that is, only to help Xin Yan Tuliang gain a firm foothold to keep the prairie in this state of fragmentation, Then the strength of Zhao is enough to destroy the two countries of Shun and Yi,
This is the best opportunity for the rise of Zhao State, just when Zhao Min was looking forward to a better future, Xin Yan Tuliang's instant defeat gave him a blow to the head, this stick really hit his eyes, if Yi Guo controlled the prairie, then Zhao Guo would no longer dare to face the bell city, seeing that the revival plan was about to be shattered, his first thought was to take advantage of He Ran to wave troops to attack Yi Guo outside,
Jing Xiang at this time tried his best to persuade the Shun State to destroy the country first, the reason is that although He Ran is outside, but there are not many soldiers and horses with him, Yi Guo is not only brave and morale is high, not to mention that there are Xiangguo and Qi as backup, once the war drags on, He Ran can lead the army to rescue, Shun Guo will also take advantage of the chaos and move, then the consequences are unpredictable, rather than taking this risk, it is better to take the opportunity to destroy Shun first, if you can succeed, not only can you greatly increase your strength but also cut off Yi Guo's potential helpers, can get this grassland force even more, and then you can deal with Yi Guo and Fanbang with peace of mind, the reason why Jing Yong suggested this is mainly because he understands Shi Lang's talent, and he expects that it will be difficult to win easily.
Zhao Min felt that what Jing Yu said made a lot of sense, so he had a move to attack Shunguo, and Yi Guo was expected to withdraw from Zhao Min halfway through the tricks, but he still felt that he could destroy Shunguo by himself, so the offensive was more fierce, and he didn't want to lose troops for a few months and only got three cities, so Zhao Min and Jing Yuan understood the power of Bai Gongbo, and understood that this general of Shunguo, who was kicked by He Ran to the point that his ass was rotten, was actually an extremely tricky character, and his ass was not something anyone could kick.
Shun Guo here can't be attacked for a long time, but He Ran over there has already returned to the division, Zhao Guo's embarrassment can be imagined, Zhao Min has changed from the previous ambition to the current worry, as if he saw a black cloud has slowly shrouded the sky above Dingyang,
