The road is straight 1
Section XXVII
He Xiaotian's secrecy work is in place, Xie Lufang's poisoning, except for a limited number of people in the Governor's Palace, has not spread the news, and the entire Shacheng is still filled with joy, and it has been lively for several days. After three days, the flow of people on the streets gradually thinned out, and the guests who had come from all over the country to attend the wedding bid farewell to the governor's palace and returned to their respective homes.
The house that Wu Ming and his wife used for their new house was very large and clean. At this time, in the backyard, a sand date tree is in full bloom, and the whole yard is fragrant and full of intoxicating flowers. He Yi sat on a carved chaise longue, his hands propped up on the edge of the chair, and looked at Wu Ming with a shy face. After a while, Wu Ming raised his head from He Yi's flat lower abdomen, and said suspiciously: "No response, didn't I hear people say before that when the child was in the mother's belly, there was fetal movement?" β
He Yi was embarrassed, stretched out his slender index finger, tapped his forehead, and said angrily: "It's only been a few months now, and there is a fetal movement?" Really. β
"Oh. I see! Wu Ming stood up, touched his nose and said with a smile: "When the little guy reacts, I'm afraid I will go back to Nanning early, I really want to stay here and accompany you all the way until you give birth to the child." β
He Yi's face darkened, and he lowered his pink neck, but he didn't say anything. Wu Ming hurriedly smiled and said: "That's nothing, isn't the order of the imperial court still here, it's not too late for me to leave when I arrive, maybe I can accompany you for a long time." β
He Yi raised his head and suddenly said, "Brother Wu, aren't you strange?" β
Wu Ming was a little stunned and said, "What's strange? β
"It's been a while since the war in the Northwest ended, and before our wedding, the imperial court had urged my uncle to return, why hasn't there been any movement on your side?"
It's okay if she doesn't say it, but it's a little strange when she says Wu Ming. couldn't help but smile and explained: "Your husband's contribution is too great. Maybe it's the imperial court, and they haven't decided how to promote me yet. β
"Hopefully." He Yi sighed, and said faintly: "Brother Wu, Miss Youluli, what are you going to do?" β
Wu Ming just smiled bitterly: "How to deal with it, when she is injured and sends someone back to Nanbanbei, what else can I do?" β
He Yi covered his mouth and smiled, and gave him a good-looking white eye: "Send it back to Nanban, I'm afraid it's not so easy." You know, she's not as weak as I am. β
Truly! Wu Ming couldn't help moaning in his heart. Yululi came all the way from the Nanban and went through all kinds of difficulties. With her brutal and willful temper, she may listen to her own advice and obediently return to Nanban. At present, it seems that there is only one way to forcibly repatriate, but today is different, even if she is sent back, it is impossible to use force. In such a situation, with her skills, who else in the entire guard battalion would dare to send her back to Nanban except herself? If you send her back, once you get to Nanban, it is still unknown whether she can come back, not to mention, she has the leisure and leisure to send her back.
For a moment, his head was as big as a bucket. just smiled bitterly: "Xiaoyi, can you teach me any recipe?" β
He Yi pursed his lips and smiled, and was about to say something, when a personal soldier outside shouted: "My lord, King Zuoxian of Dongmeng is visiting." β
Taimoto Shu is here? The husband and wife glanced at each other, and they both saw some doubts in each other's eyes. Wu Ming said in a loud voice: "I know, you sue King SΓΉ Zuoxian, let him wait in the living room for a while, and say that I will be there soon." β
The so-called sparrows are small, but they have all kinds of organs. Although this house is in the backyard of the Governor's Palace, the study, kitchen, wings, living rooms, etc., all kinds of buildings should be complete, just like the courtyard within the courtyard of the Governor's Palace. As King Zuo Xian, he came to visit in person, and Wu Ming naturally did not dare to slack off. said hello to He Yi and walked out. The living room is in front of the house, through a few corridors. When Wu Ming walked to the living room, he saw Taiben Shuzheng sitting on a chair, holding a teacup in both hands, and he was using the lid of the cup to play with the tea foam on it, obviously a little impatient.
He stepped in, and at the same time hugged his fists and said: "The virtuous king is coming, and the young general has failed to greet him, and he is guilty of sin." β
Tai Benshu put down the teacup and stood up, watched Wu Ming walk in from outside the door, and said with a smile: "Lord Wu's newlywed Yan'er, it is when you are in love with me." This king came uninvited and disturbed your Qingxing, that is the real sin. β
When he disguised himself as a merchant of the Long family, he had a graceful and wealthy temperament. Now that the identity of the virtuous king has been restored, such a noble aura is undoubtedly revealed. He was personable, standing there and talking, Wu Ming looked at it, and his heart was broken, and he just smiled: "King Xian is polite." β
As he spoke, he walked over to Tai Benshu, stretched out his hand and said, "King Xian sits down and speaks, please." β
The two sat down again, Tai Benshu picked up the cup, blew a few tea leaves floating on it, and then said slowly: "Lord Wu's marriage is not simple. Not only did the northwest shake, but I am afraid that there was no one in the major empires who did not pay attention to it. β
Tai Benshu made a special trip here, and he definitely didn't come politely with himself. But what does he mean by that? Wu Ming was a little confused, so he had to respond to all changes unchanged, and followed his words and said: "If you want to say that the northwest is shaking, it is also thanks to the Northwest Father and Elder to give Governor He face." As for the fact that several empires are paying attention to ...... at the same time," he said with a dry laugh: "King Xian's words are serious. β
"General Wu is as legendary, cautious and obedient, young and old, there are few people of the same age."
Taibenshu continued to say a nonsensical word, took a sip of tea, and then put down the cup and said, "Don't hide it from Lord Wu, I will go back tomorrow." β
Wu Ming was a little stunned and said, "Isn't King Xian going to play more in Shacheng?" If you don't dislike it, the young general can also saddle the horse and take you on a tour. β
Although he said this, he was thinking about it in his heart. Taimoto Shu is leaving? As Daoyun said, he came this time to fight for Governor He's attitude towards Simon, even if he couldn't get the support of the northwest, at least he would not send troops to drag Dongmeng back. In this case, he must have discussed the result with Governor He. Could it be that Governor Ho had agreed to his request, or that the war in the Steppes of Ganbi had changed, otherwise, how could he have gone in such a hurry?
King Zuo Xian glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Lord Wu is polite, I'm afraid that in your heart, I wish this king would have left earlier, so as not to be an eyesore, but I don't understand why I am in such a hurry." β
This guy's ability to read words and emotions is really amazing. Wu Ming's heart sank, but his face said seriously: "King Xian said with a smile, this sentence comes from the bottom of his heart." The demeanor of the virtuous king makes the young general's heart broken, and he just wants to make friends with his heart, how can he be suspicious. β
"Really?" Taiben replied dispensably, and said with a smile: "Since Lord Wu said so, that king really has some heart-to-heart words to say to you, don't blame this king for his words." β
Wu Ming smiled bitterly: "King Xian's words are serious. β
Tai Benshu ignored him, took another sip of tea, and said to himself: "I understand Lord Wu's kindness." I will not hide from you that our army has won a decisive victory in the steppe of Gambiga, and the army of Simon is defeated and is retreating in the direction of Lanning. β
"What?"
After Na Yanda and Li Yuan fought a defeat, it is said that they have been unconscious. With his prestige in Simon's army, the blow was undoubtedly fatal. And on the Gambiga grassland, the Eastern Mongolian side is even more victorious, almost pressing Simon's army to fight. Eastern Mongolia's economic strength is strong, and Simon's military superiority, Wu Ming thought that even if Simon lost for a short time, when Nayanda woke up, the situation would get better sooner or later. So I didn't bother with it. Now hearing Tai Benshu say this, he almost jumped in horror.
Tai Benshu glanced at Wu Ming and smiled: "What, Lord Wu doesn't believe it?" β
What do you believe or not, after a while, the spies in the northwest will send the real news sooner or later. No matter how treacherous Taimoto Shu is, it is impossible to manipulate the war report. Wu Mingqiang said with a smile: "I see, the young general is here to congratulate ...... first"
Simon was defeated so quickly, once Simon's country was destroyed, the entire Northern Mongolia was reunified, which is not necessarily a good thing for the current imperial court. At that time, millions of iron cavalry divisions in Northern Mongolia will go south, and with the current situation of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who will be the enemy? Could it be that Governor Ho has promised to stand idly by? Thinking of this, Wu Ming shook his head secretly in his heart. I can see such a simple truth, but how can Governor He not see it when he is old and spicy? Yes, it must have been Tai Benshu who suffered a loss from Governor He and turned to seek his own support.
Just thinking about it, Tai Benshu glanced at Wu Ming, who was ugly, and said leisurely: "Those insincere words, Lord Wu still don't say much." I'm afraid that in your heart, I'm even more worried that it will be bad for you after I rule the entire grassland. β
He opened the skylight and said something bright, Wu Ming sorted out his thoughts, and asked rhetorically: "Then with the meaning of King Xian, after Rizela unified Northern Mongolia, it will be beneficial to us?" β
This is a bit of a mockery. Tai Benshu laughed, looked at Wu Mingcai again and said, "Lord Wu is quick to talk, which is gratifying." Good for you? Actually, the same can be said. If I, Rizela, unify the grassland, it will be much more beneficial to you than Lanning to complete the unification of the grassland. β
Wu Ming was taken aback and asked, "How do you say this?" β
Tai Benshu stood up and paced two steps in the room before saying, "Lord Simon's face is as big as the sky, and he is ambitious. Once he is allowed to unify the entire Beimeng homeland, with his talents, he will not be satisfied with the status quo, but will raise swords again. If that happens, won't it be a disaster for you and others? Lord Wu knows him very well, can't he see this? β
Wu Ming also stood up and said with a slight smile: "King Xian is very right, but you are also eloquent, and you are not far behind compared to Na Yanda." β
Now that the mask has been torn off, Wu Ming is too lazy to be hypocritical. These words are clearly praising Tai Benshu, but in fact, he is saying that he is insidious and cunning, and he has unified the hometown of Beimeng, which is not necessarily a few points better than Na Yanda for the imperial court.
