Chapter 727: The Old Man Meets
The Southern Wei court retreated!
The Northern Wei Dynasty followed suit and announced its withdrawal!
The two families seemed to have discussed it, and the rhythm of the retreat was the same.
The war, which lasted for nearly a year, finally came to an end.
Before the war, Yan Yunge, who was not favored by anyone, was thought to be defeated by the joint strangulation of the two imperial courts, but he won!
Of course......
Her win also paid a terrible price.
Lost troops, business withered, people's hearts were unstable, and confidence was lost......
Fortunately......
When the news of the imperial court's withdrawal came, everything was worth it.
Business will soon return to its former prosperity, people's hearts will settle down, and confidence will be restored......
The most important thing is that Yan Yunge's goal of starting the war was achieved, she successfully won the territory of the four coastal counties, and used the war to win people's hearts and implement her own system.
Before the war, everyone said that she was arrogant, and she dared to take the initiative to provoke Liu Zhang, and dared to fight at both ends.
At the end of the war, basically nine out of ten people were dumbfounded.
This world is too disillusioned!
How did she win?
How can she win!
Northern Wei and Southern Wei, the two imperial courts, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, is it not a Yan Yunge who only has the territory of three counties?
Many people can't understand the cause and effect relationship here, and they don't understand why the two imperial courts have withdrawn one after another.
Could it be all luck?
Only those who are in the game can see everything clearly.
It's not so much luck as it is strategizing and winning a thousand miles!
Without Sun Bangnian's poisoning, there would be no Liu Baoshun's first retreat.
Without Liu Baoshun killing the Xue family, and Xue Guifei secretly planted the seeds of suspicion, Liu Zhang, the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, would not have decided to withdraw from the army for the second time.
Similarly......
If he had not provoked a dispute over the country's capital, had not robbed the property of the Southern Wei court, and had not dragged the Southern Wei courtiers to hold back, it would have been impossible for Xiao Chengwen, the emperor of the Southern Wei Dynasty, to order the withdrawal of the army.
Everything is man-made.
War is only the appearance, and the power game behind the war is internal.
All in all, it's not easy!
Yan Yunge finally had time to take her two children on a boat on the lake to relax.
She has worked hard for more than a year, during which she is pregnant and has children, and she has to strategize and calculate people's hearts, but she is tired!
Thinking back on all the things that have happened in the past year or so, she can't believe that she has done so many things.
The key is......
She even gave birth to a second child.
While giving birth to a child and planning for a war, it is estimated that only she can be so strong.
……
Sparkling!
A cool breeze blew, carrying water vapor, which was exceptionally cool.
Today, she is not only taking her two children on a trip, but also to meet people.
A person who is inconvenient to appear in the yamen of the county guard's mansion.
When the two ships meet, a plank becomes a channel connecting the two ships.
When people stepped on the deck, Yan Yunge told the maid to take the child to play elsewhere.
"Cousin Shen hasn't seen him for many years, but his demeanor is still the same!"
She stood up and greeted with a smile.
Shen Shuwen looked at the familiar and strange people, and there were many emotions in his heart.
"After many years, Sister Yunge's demeanor is even better than back then!"
"Cousin Shen, please take a seat! Let's stop flattering each other, it's boring. This year's new tea, I produce it from a tea house, my mother named it Marchday, and Cousin Shen tasted it. ”
"The county lord has been okay all these years? I haven't asked for peace in person for many years, and I really shouldn't. ”
"Don't worry, my mother is in good health, and you are worried. Every year you send someone to send a Boxing gift to you, and my mother is very satisfied. ”
Shen Shuwen felt a little guilty, "I was taken care of by the county lord back then, but I didn't repay one or two, and I felt guilty." This time I followed the army out, and my duty was not to ask for understanding, but not to hold grudges. I am not a white-eyed wolf, and I dare not forget the kindness of that year. ”
Yan Yunge pursed her lips and smiled, "Cousin Shen is too serious, how come it hasn't changed at all over the years." You also said that that is where the duty lies, you hold the rice bowl of the court, and naturally you have to be loyal to the court, and no one blames you. My mother told me privately that it is not easy for you to have today. She hopes that you will be true to your heart and do a good job. ”
Shen Shuwen was very surprised, "The county lord didn't blame me?" ”
Yan Yunge nodded affirmatively, "If she blames you, why should I come forward to see you." ”
Shen Shuwen was relieved, got up, bowed three times in the direction of Pingyang County.
She didn't stop him, and when he finished saluting, she suddenly asked, "Cousin Shen's adventure to Pingyang County this time is on behalf of yourself, or on behalf of Master Cui Zhicui?" ”
Shen Shuwen smiled awkwardly, "My cousin is as smart as ever. However, I am not representing myself, nor Lord Choi, but General Choi. ”
"Cui Wang?"
Yan Yunge raised his eyebrows, feeling a little strange in his heart.
"If I'm not mistaken, I haven't dealt with him, not even met, let alone met. Why did he send you to me? ”
General Choi admired his cousin's talent, but hated not being able to meet him in person. He asked me to bring you a gift and said that by this time next year, he would set foot in Binh Duong County. Hopefully, you won't refuse to meet him then. ”
With that, he took out the carefully prepared gift.
It's not gold, jade, or jewelry.
It's a one-of-a-kind book!
Hundreds of years ago, a certain great writer, a great thinker, and a self-deprecating person was a codex of demi-saints by later generations.
The handwritten codex of the old man of the half-saint, how precious it is!
Absolutely priceless.
Cui Wang, who has never been masked, is really good at figuring out people's hearts, and he gives gifts so thoughtfully, so he likes it.
See you!
For this lonely book, she also wants to meet Cui Wang.
This man is extraordinary!
Shen Shuwen said softly: "General Cui knows that you love books and like books. It was also determined that there would be no autographed codex of the demi-saint in the library of the Songshan Academy and the county guard's house, because this book was the only one in the world.
What is circulating outside are manuscripts that are incomplete. This unique book, treasured by the Cui family for generations, can be described as a family heirloom. In order to show his sincerity, General Cui risked being dealt with by the family law and specially ordered me to bring it to you. ”
Yan Yunge was overjoyed, Cui Wang, this guy is really good at giving gifts.
watched her build a library and collect books everywhere, so she got her love of books.
In order to show sincerity, he directly took out the heirloom and the only book, and the capital was ruthless enough.
Do what you like!
No one is better at what he likes than Cui Wang!
Yan Yunge is happy!
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, if there were a few more people in the family like Cui Wang who would do what they liked, how good it would be!
She won't have so many worries, and others will take the initiative to deliver whatever she wants, which is simply crooked.
This kind of thing can only be dreamed of.
She said to Shen Shuwen: "I like this gift very much, please convey my gratitude on my behalf." If he can really come to Binh Duong County next year, I will definitely be hospitable. ”
When Shen Shuwen heard this, he also laughed.
"General Choi said you would love this gift, and sure enough. I heard that my cousin scavenged the collection of books in the capital before leaving Beijing and going south, which is really admirable and enviable. ”
"If Cousin Shen has a favorite book, you can make a list, and I will have someone prepare a manuscript and send it to your house."
"Thank you, cousin! Regardless of my responsibilities, he was willing to lend me books. ”
Yan Yunge seemed to smile, "Dare to ask Cousin Shen, are you loyal to the imperial court or the Cui family now?" ”
Shen Shuwen said solemnly: "Master Cui has the grace of promoting me, and he married his granddaughter to me, I am grateful to the Cui family. The matter of being loyal to the monarch, since he is holding the rice bowl of the imperial court, he is naturally loyal to the imperial court. ”
"If one day, the imperial court wants to eradicate the Cui family, what should you do?"
Shen Shuwen frowned.
After a long time, he said, "I don't know what I will do if it doesn't happen." Just want to be worthy of your heart. ”
Yan Yunge raised his eyebrows and smiled, "What a worthy one!" You are an official of the imperial court, and you should not have appeared in Pingyang County, but you are willing to take this trip for the sake of Cui Wang. In fact, deep down in your heart, you are towards the Cui family.
The Cui family is a century-old family, with a profound heritage and a wide range of connections, which is unimaginable. If you want to revitalize the family business, there is nothing wrong with choosing the Cui family. It's not early, lest anyone find out who you are, so let's go! ”
"Thank you, cousin!"
Shen Shuwen didn't talk nonsense, got up, bowed solemnly, got out of the cabin, stepped on the pedal, and returned to the boat and went down the river.
Say goodbye!
Yan Yunge opened the window door and looked at the distant ships, a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Xiao Yuanchu's children took their younger brother Xiao Yuanjia and returned to the cabin.
"Mother, mother, mother......"
With a sweat on his head, he broke free of his mother's hand and threw himself into his mother's arms.
In the past, Xiaochubundun grew taller, but his weight did not decrease, but he weighed a few pounds.
It's just that because I've grown taller and my flesh is firm, I don't look fat.
The weight, the sweat on his head, threw himself into his arms.
Yan Yunge stretched out a finger against the child's head, "Follow Mama to wash and change into refreshing clothes." You don't stop on the boat, why do you sweat? ”
"It's fun!" Xiao Yuanchu's children smiled.
As long as you can go out, it's fun.
What's more, it's even more fun on a boat!
"Sweat on your head, wash it quickly."
The subordinate called for hot water, and Yan Yunge personally supervised the washing and changed into refreshing clothes.
As a younger brother, Xiao Yuanjia's little friend struggled to shuttle from his grandmother's arms to the ground, and he wanted to climb!
He kicked on his two little fat legs, trying to crawl to his brother's side.
Oops......
I can't crawl!
used the strength to feed, and the little fat legs couldn't move no matter how much they pedaled.
Never mind!
So......
Our Xiao Yuanjia children slept directly on the blanket.
Hahaha......
Yanyun Song is unstoppable.
"The stinky boy is getting lazier and lazier."
Listening to the familiar laughter, Xiao Yuanjia's child raised his head very face-saving and glanced at it curiously.
A pair of big eyes, eyelashes are old, and he looks particularly innocent.
As if to say, I can't kick my legs without food, and you won't help me.
Yan Yunge picked up Xiao Yuanjia's child, who was getting lazier and lazier, and kissed him on the cheek.
"Seven pounds are getting cuter!"
