"I was pitted by Fang Xuanling......"

Chu Tian found that his military advisor was not good at calculating others, but he was particularly good at calculating himself.

Chu Tian was lying on the bed in the cool summer, and there was a faint fragrance in the room. And in the summer, Liang was lying at the head of the bed, less than a foot away from Chutian, and even the sound of breathing could be heard.

She was clearly asleep, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her breathing evenly.

It was the first time for Chu Tian to face this subordinate, if it was just his appearance, Xia Liang was indeed not inferior to any woman Chu Tian had ever seen.

The key is competence.

From politics to economics and military, it is comparable to all-rounders.

Chu Tian knew that nothing should have happened last night, otherwise he wouldn't be lying on the head of the bed in the summer cold.

He was looking at Xia Liang up close with his face sideways, his eyelashes blinked, Xia Liang opened his eyes and found that Chu Tian was staring at her, no more than a foot away.

She blushed and hurriedly explained, "My lord, nothing happened last night...... The subordinates have a good memory, and they have seen Fang Xuanling's newly bought servants, and they can recognize their identities at a glance...... It must be Fang Xuanling's mess up, and it has nothing to do with his subordinates......"

Fang Xuanling's strategy was unexpectedly recognized.

I don't know why, Chu Tian has some regrets.

"Is there any water?"

Chu Tian only felt that his mouth was dry, and he hurriedly brought a bowl of water in the summer.

"During this time, you will temporarily serve as the minister of Xiapi, and watch the families living in Xiapi for me, and when I come back from the national war, you will move to the lord's mansion."

Chu Tian thought of Fang Xuanling's proposal, if he indulged in the expansion of Xia Liang's power, it would indeed be detrimental to the development of his forces.

"Staying in the Lord's Mansion?"

Summer was stunned, she didn't expect that Chu Tian, who was usually the same as wood and valued interests more than her, would suddenly let her live in the lord's mansion.

What else can I do to live in the Lord's Mansion?

"If you don't want to ......"

"Subordinates obey."

In the summer, the cool blocked Chu Tian's mouth to prevent this piece of wood from repenting.

Chu Tian didn't expect Xia Liang to take the initiative.

A wise woman doesn't hesitate to attack when it's time to attack.

"Bring the latch on first......"

"The subordinates have already closed the door, and they don't plan to let the lord out at all......"

“……”

Fang Xuanling held a folding fan in his hand and wandered around the streets of Xiapi City, beaming proudly: "The beauty of adults is really refreshing." ”

If Xia Liang ascends to the throne, with her intelligence, she will definitely promote Fang Xuanling politically.

In addition, Fang Xuanling was one of the first people to follow Chu Tian, and even if Chu Tian recruited other ministers in the future, his position in the long history would be difficult to shake.

It's called Odd Goods.

"The military advisor is in a good mood."

Chu Tian's voice came from behind him, and the slight smile on Fang Xuanling's face gradually solidified.

Fang Xuanling turned his head and said, "Lord." ”

"As a military advisor, what crime should I be guilty of not seeking the enemy country, but calculating the lord?"

"His subordinates deserve death."

"Death is avoidable, but living sin is inescapable. There is still a month left before the national war, and the next month you go to the stable to work as a groom and reflect on it. ”

Fang Xuanling suddenly frowned.

Chutian didn't make the politically speculative Fang Xuanling feel good, and after a month's career as a groom, he gave Fang Xuanling a good beating to prevent Fang Xuanling from interfering too much in these private matters.

Fang Xuanling is a smart person, and he should understand Chu Tian's intentions.

"Subordinates receive orders."

Fang Xuanling himself was also tossed, and understood that this lord was not good at stubble.

Coupled with the cold of a summer, Fang Xuanling suddenly realized that he seemed to have made up a terrible combination, wouldn't he be a courtier in the future and face two people who are good at power at the same time?

"It's fine. I have the merit of being old, and the position of Changshi is as stable as Mount Tai, but I have suffered other ministers. ”

Fang Xuanling put away the folding fan, thinking that the future Wenchen would not be happy, a lord who was constantly fighting and a shrewd woman behind him, all the Wenchen and the family would tremble.

There is still a month left before the national war, and after a period of construction, Xia City can already be upgraded to a medium-sized city.

Now there are four large cities in the territory of Chutian, namely Langya City, Tancheng, Xiapi City, and Pengcheng.

However, Xia City has a special meaning for Chu Tian, and it will merge with Langya City in the future to become a giant city.

Chu Tian placed all the important buildings in Xia City, strengthened the city walls, and built moats as a stronghold for turning the tables in the future when the war situation was unfavorable.

There was a sensation in the Lord's Mansion, and Chu Tian felt that the scale of the Lord's Mansion had expanded again.

[Territory]: Summer City (Medium-sized City)

[Lord]: Chutian (Marquis of Kaiyang County)

[Affiliation]: Langya State, Xuzhou, Eastern Han District

[Specialty]: Ordinary green tea (new C-grade specialty), top white porcelain (new S-grade specialty)

[Population]: 205867/500000

[People's Heart]: 91

[Public security]: 90

[Prosperity of the city]: 40507/100000

[Administrative efficiency]: 65/100

[Agricultural Efficiency]: 67/100

[Economic efficiency]: 70/100

[Cultural efficiency]: 80/100

[City fortifications]: intermediate rammed earth brick city wall, medium-sized city tower, intermediate stone arrow tower, low-level horse face, Yaksha ......

[New Building]: City God Temple (a five-level building, increasing blessing value and people's hearts), a five-level post station......

"The culture score was 80. Most of them are the effects brought by celebrities such as Le Fang and Du Fu Thatched Cottage. ”

Chu Tian personally upgraded Xia Cheng from a small city to a medium-sized city, just like a child who grew up with one hand. In the beginning, Summer City was just a village.

Because of Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, Cai Wenji, Wu Chengcheng, Diao Chan (not recruited), poet Du Fu, Cao Song and other influential historical figures, Xiacheng seems to have become the cultural center of Xuzhou.

Chu Tian dared to guarantee that after Luoyang City was burned down, there was no city in the Eastern Han District that had so many historical figures and special talents.

Even the divine doctor Hua Tuo temporarily lived in the city.

Xuzhou was stable, and more people and big people flowed into Langya and Xiacheng.

The population of Xia City has also reached 200,000, and because it has been in operation for a long time, the popularity and security of Xia City are above 90, which can be said to be the most trustworthy city in Chutian. Even if the vast majority of Xuzhou's cities fall, there is still Xia City to rely on.

In addition to being busy with change, the whole Xuzhou is also preparing for a national war.

Fang Xuanling was punished by Chu Tian to go to the stable as a groom because of his calculation of his lord.

The groom in the stable found that Fang Xuanling, who was engaged in the pastoral management of Xuzhou and the governor of General Anton's mansion, actually wanted to go to the stable to do some heavy work.

What Fang Xuanling has to take care of is not an ordinary war horse, but Chutian's Liangzhou horse and a high-grade Turkic war horse.

Seeing that Fang Xuanling was carrying a bucket of water, the horseman wanted to wash the war horse himself, so he hurriedly stopped Fang Xuanling: "How can Lord Changshi make it, just let us do these dirty work." ”

"It's not proper, since the lord punished me for being a groom, I can't take advantage of it, otherwise I won't have a good time in the future."

Fang Xuanling changed out of his robe, wore the same narrow shirt and short sleeves as the groom, and personally washed the fur of the war horse.

The smell of the stables was very strong, to be precise, it was too bad.

Fang Xuanling is a disciple of a family, and he is in a high position, where has he ever encountered such treatment.

"There are many absurd things in the world when you help others to achieve good deeds, but you are punished in the end......"

Fang Xuanling wiped the horse's back while talking to himself.

The grooms looked at each other, they could only instruct Fang Xuanling on how to take care of the war horse, but they couldn't replace Fang Xuanling, and they couldn't help, because this was the lord's order.

They don't understand why a dignified man has become a groom like them.

"Lord Fang, why are you here?"

Hua Mulan led a good war horse to the stable and asked the groom to take care of it, but met Fang Xuanling.

When she saw that the groom looked a little similar to Fang Xuanling, she didn't believe it, but when she looked closely, it was really Fang Xuanling, and she was stunned.

Fang Xuanling, who was engaged in the dignified Xuzhou Muzhizhong, the governor of General Anton's Mansion, the three major interior ministers of Langya, and the future prime minister, actually served as a groom in the stables of the lord's mansion, and he was full of energy.

"Miss Mulan......" Fang Xuanling saw Mulan, out of guilt, and said, "Regarding Miss Xia's matter, I think this is also your protection." You should not get caught up in the maelstrom of power. ”

Fang Xuanling felt guilty about Mulan, since he was standing in the cool camp in summer, he could only wronged Mulan.

"Sister Xia's business? I heard her say, please don't care. ”

To Fang Xuanling's surprise, Mulan was not depressed because of this incident.

Wait a minute......

Fang Xuanling squinted his eyes, he suspected that Xia Liang had bought Hua Mulan and reached some consensus with Hua Mulan in private.

In this way, it is correct not to push Mulan to that position.

Mulan is a political novice.

But as long as the lord likes it, with the protection of Miss Xia, Mulan will at least not become a victim of the power struggle.

"Since the two girls have reached an agreement, there is no need to intervene in the future."

Fang Xuanling no longer dared to meddle in Chu Tian's affairs.

This time I was a groom for a month, and I was estimated to be demoted to a pig farm.

"I will go and intercede for the lord, with your talents, you should not be a groom."

"Miss Mulan, don't do this...... I'm even more reluctant not to ......."

Fang Xuanling insisted on being a groom.

Both of them are good girls, Fang Xuanling helped one, and she always felt sorry for the other.

It is estimated that this is also the reason why the lord is entangled.

Hua Mulan saw that Fang Xuanling didn't want her to help intercede, so she gave up.

Fang Xuanling, as a prime minister, worked hard to take care of the horses, which can be described as the worst prime minister in history.

Chutian ordered all legions to be stationed in Xiapi to suppress the Xuzhou families.

At the same time, Chu Tian planned to set off from Xiapi City to participate in the national war.

When Fang Xuanling worked hard as a groom, he spent a very moist time in Xiapi City with the summer coolness during this time......

Regarding the matter of the family head and the lord mixing together, Li Xiuning turned a blind eye.

She had to admit one thing - the lord had become her head of the house in a special way.

The Women's Army also became part of the Praetorian Guard.

"The head of the family is really powerful, it seems that he wants to have a child before the lord goes on the expedition...... In this way, even if the lord has an accident, he will have a thought, and at the same time, someone will be able to inherit the huge territory. ”

Li Xiuning sensed the meaning of cool summer.

The war is quite dangerous.

Lords participating in national wars cannot communicate with the Overworld.

It is also possible that Chutian will be killed.

Le Yi, Xue Rengui, Li Guang, Zhao Yun, Hua Xiong and other military generals gathered in Xiapicheng.

Everyone knew that a terrible battle was coming.

In order to get the reward of the national war, Chu Tian had to go to the war, otherwise the reward would be taken away by the lords of other civilization areas, which was equivalent to the strength of the lords of other civilization areas.

Zhou Yafu, Zhou Cang and other generals in charge of guarding the house also came to Picheng to bid farewell to everyone.

Zhou Cang was originally quite confident in his own force, but after he came to Xiapi, he was taught a lesson by Zhao Yun, Xue Rengui, Li Guang and others. So Zhou Cang no longer dared to be conceited by force.

Maybe he belongs to one of the few fierce generals in the Yellow Turban Army, but under the command of Xuzhou Chutian, he is really not enough, so that he can only serve as Zhou Yafu's bodyguard, not Chutian's bodyguard.

Chu Tian's guards are generally one or two orders higher than Zhou Cang, at least at the Mulan level, to be qualified to become Chu Tian's guards.

After Zhou Cang was beaten by Zhao Yun, Li Guang and others, he was relieved to be Zhou Yafu's guard.

Because the national war was about to begin, Chutian pardoned Fang Xuanling, and Fang Xuanling's 25-day groom career finally ended.

Chu Tian asked with interest, "Does the military advisor still dare?" ”

Fang Xuanling replied curtly: "The subordinates know their mistakes, and the subordinates won't dare next time...... What does the lord think of Miss Mulan? ”

“……”

Chu Tian found that Fang Xuanling was still unrepentant.

He didn't know that Fang Xuanling was out of guilt.

"I don't know what the other lords are going to do. Gongziwen of Yanzhou had already decided not to participate in the national war in order to destroy Cao Cao. If he can really defeat Cao Cao, he may be a strong enemy. But how do I think Cao Cao will not fail easily. ”

Although Cao Cao had no grievances with him, Chutian had been peeking at Yanzhou in Xuzhou, paying attention to the battle between Cao Cao and the Yanzhou coalition army, so as to meddle in Yanzhou affairs at any time.

Chutian was waiting for the countdown to the national war.

"There are a total of 56 lords in the Eastern Han District participating in the national war!"

"South of the Yangtze River, because of the complex terrain, there are many low mountains, hills, and lakes, and there are more small lords. The plains north of the Yangtze River formed many great princes. ”

"It's good that we have lords in the Eastern Han Dynasty who can take the first place. After all, this is a scuffle between all the lords of the world. ”

"If a great lord dies in the national war, the pattern of the Eastern Han Dynasty will also change because of this."

"That's true. The vast majority of the Great Lords have no descendants, or the descendants are very small, and once the Great Lord dies, I am afraid that the entire power will collapse because of this. ”

Players throughout the Eastern Han Dynasty are concerned about the national war.

After all, in the melee of all civilization lords, which civilization lord can be ranked first, this is very important.

"Chu Zimou is going to crusade against foreign races? Good news for me......"

Cao Cao, who was miserable by Chu Tiankeng, was disgraced, and the anti-Cao Cao alliance secretly instigated by Chu Tian brought great trouble to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's forces were on the verge of collapse for a time.

This national war was a rare respite for Cao Cao.

He could not worry about Chu Zimou in Xuzhou intervening in the Yanzhou war, so he could concentrate on dealing with the Yanzhou coalition army.

The Yiren who supported Cao Cao made a special trip to report to Cao Cao: "My lord, Zhang Liao, who was captured by us in Luoyang, has decided to surrender and serve you. ”
