Chapter 397: Picnic under the mountain
Snowy foothills, vast green fields.
Yang Xian led people to set up a tent by the river, set up a few ovens, and the soldiers of the three battalions, including Ma Wei, Chen Nuo, and Zhao Yin, were holding bamboo skewers to skewer meat, seafood, and vegetables.
The red envelope on Xia Gongni's head has not completely disappeared, and he looks at the fragrant barbecue on the oven, and his mouth is drooling.
"Father, how long will it take!"
Yang Xian flipped the lamb skewers on the oven, and sprinkled some spices from time to time.
"It's not ripe yet!"
During this time, Yang Xian was very leisurely, and even leisurely enough to take Xia Gong Nirvana to a picnic barbecue under the snowy mountains hundreds of miles away from this string city.
Emperor Huan Qi of Liang could tolerate any vassal state, but could not tolerate Shu. Because Xia Gong Nirvana is the orthodoxy of the Xia family, and now after becoming the emperor, he has reached an endless situation with the Liang State.
To be precise, today's Shu no longer exists, replaced by the Great Zhou Empire, and Xia Gongni is no longer the King of Shu, but the Empress of the Great Zhou.
It's not as simple as changing a name, correspondingly, clothing, flags, temples, chariots, horses, armor, ...... Everything in the court, big and small, needs to be changed, and it will be upgraded to the next level.
Theoretically, for example, the thirteen states are the territory of the Great Zhou. But with Huan Qi becoming emperor, the actual territory of the Great Zhou Empire has shrunk sharply, from the original thirteen states to the current Yizhou, and the remaining five states not controlled by Liang are also in a state of swaying.
Therefore, in addition to being nice, the biggest disadvantage of changing the name or something is that it costs money.
Because the clothes and everything have to be redone, and the official is promoted, and the salary is also raised.
"That's it!"
The delicate barbecued meat was placed on a silver plate and handed to Xia Gong Nirvana. The empress of the Great Zhou, who hadn't washed her hair for a long time, picked up the skewers and feasted on them, and didn't forget to praise them while eating.
"Father, your barbecue skills have improved again."
Rong Can stood aside, very respectful. He looked at this scene and didn't feel a little surprised. When Rong Can led a group of remnants of the Liang army to occupy the mountain as the king in the mountains of Badi, he knew very well what the state of Xia Gong Nirvana was.
Lawlessness and misconduct are not enough to describe this Empress of the Great Zhou. Therefore, since the surrender of Shu, Rong Can has been hiding from Xia Gong Ni, and then training under Yang Chun, Rong Can has never seen Xia Gong Ni much.
But now looking at the little girl beside Yang Xian, she is docile and cute, like a little kitten. Rong Can was in a trance for a moment, is this still the little demon king of the mixed world?
"General Rongcan, you can also taste it!"
Yang Xian handed over the plate, and Rong Can was very respectful.
"Thank you, Prime Minister!"
Rong Can is now promoted to the rank of General Fenwei, in charge of two 5,000-heavy armor. General Fenwei is a miscellaneous general, Jin Xin has been, and Tong Gu has also been.
When Xia Gongni was still the king of Shu, the upper limit of the military official position that could be rewarded was only a miscellaneous general. But after she became the empress, it was different.
Jin Xin and Tong Drum each commanded an army, and now they have been promoted to generals.
The general is not only a position, but also a symbol, which means that the strength of the general has reached a certain level.
And the standard for this level is whether it can compete with the other great masters of the three veins. In terms of cultivation as a realm, the general may not be comparable to the other great masters of the three veins, but in terms of combat power, it is more than enough. Even if you have a powerful killing technique, it is an idle matter to solve the ordinary great master.
Of course, Tong Gu is among them, and he is a peerless horseman, far surpassing the generals. In addition, the generals under Yang Xian, Yang Ping, Yang An, Qin Feng, and Han Buyi were also named generals.
Han is not born in the star lineage, and the cultivation method is completely different from the system of the first line in the army, but if it is about personal combat strength, it is actually not inferior to Yang Ping.
The reason for this is that although the Dongzhou soldiers, a powerful type of troops in Han Buful's hands, do not belong to the military system of the same lineage, they are also trained by Yang Chun without discrimination, and Han Bubu is even more so.
As the top great master in the world and the opponent of the Heavenly Dao, Yang Chun knew more about the cultivation system of the Star One Pulse than Ye Dongyang, Wang Yaoxian and other great masters of the Star Lineage.
Under Yang Chun and Tong Gu, the generals are making rapid progress every day, both in terms of personal cultivation and the method of leading the army. Han Buyi is even more of an outlier, although he is the descendant of the star lineage, but under the influence of Yang Chun, his behavior is closer to the style of the army lineage. Although he was young, he had already touched the edge of the realm of the Great Grandmaster. Even, as time went by, he might have to achieve the Great Grandmaster Realm faster than Jin Xin and the others.
A drizzle of hair fell and hit the thatch of the shed. Choking smoke wafted from the oven, and the atmosphere of the picnic in the shed was not disturbed by the rain, but became more enthusiastic.
"It's raining!"
Xia Gong Nirvana bit the meat by herself, her mouth bulged, she stretched out her little hand, and the water fell drippingly, and she shook it off. The roast on the plate had been wiped out by Natsumiya Nirvana, and the roast on the stove had just been put on it.
Xia Gong Ni looked at Rong Can with a small face, staring at the barbecue on his plate, his eyes were very resentful.
As an honest man, Rong Can said in a timely manner.
"Your Majesty, why don't you eat first?"
"Then you're welcome."
Xia Gong Ni took the plate handed by Rong Can, and without the slightest politeness, he gobbled it up again.
At this moment, a loud roar was heard from the forest in the foothills of the distant mountains. A huge beast was galloping from the foothills of the forest, and the movement was so great that all kinds of utensils under the shed were trembling slightly.
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
Rong Can looked vigilant, thinking that it was a fierce beast in the mountains attacking. But I saw Xia Gong Ni biting the meat skewer, looking at Rong Can, with an expression of looking at the soil buns.
Rong Can's appearance as if he was facing a great enemy caused a burst of laughter, which made him very embarrassed. Before he could figure out what was going on, the beast soon approached, and its form gradually became clear, it was a great ape.
Strangely, as the giant ape approached the shed, it slowed down, squatted down, and in the rain, its huge palm stretched out.
"Look at it!"
Yang Xian put down the skewers in his hand, found a cloth to wipe his hands, said to Ma Wei beside him, and walked over.
The giant ape is holding a pink fruit in its hand, which looks very strange. Yang Xian took it in his hand and looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction.
"This Hongxi fruit is in good condition, take this to make soup tonight."
"Great!"
The happiest is still Xia Gong Ni, clapping his hands and about to jump.
Rong Can hesitated a little, but finally stepped forward and asked.
"Prime Minister, I just received information from the front line, the Demon Emperor has captured Zhaofu City, and the soldiers are in the sun, what don't we have to do?"
"No hurry!"
Yang Xian put the rainbow fruit in the vegetable basket, and then took a handful of bananas from it and threw it to the giant ape. The great ape took the banana and danced with his hands, clapping his hands in the rain as if to cheer him up.
