Chapter 222: The First Encounter in the Heart of the Lake

Wan Ningzhu smiled and nodded: "I am from Xisha Country, and I came to Dongyue Country this time to purchase some seafood to bring back!" You also know that Xisha is so far away from the sea, and the seafood is quite in demand! ”

When the fisherman heard that Wan Ningzhu was from Xisha Country, he was suddenly indescribably enthusiastic, and said: "Yes, in previous years, many people from your Xisha Country came to Dongyue Country to purchase things!" Your Xisha country is so good, so rich! Among the five countries, your Xisha country is the most stable and rich! If you look at the other four countries, there will be wars every once in a while, but the Xisha country has not been poisoned by war for thousands of years. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and they are happy! ”

Wan Ningzhu smiled and said, "Aren't you also living and working in peace and contentment now?" ”

The fisherman sighed while holding the boat and said, "Girl, since you are from Xisha Country, I am not afraid to tell you!" In fact, you should have seen it when you came, and the curfew has begun to be implemented in other places except the capital! It is estimated that this capital is also soon! What this curfew means, the girl should know very well when she goes south and north! It's going to be a war! This war, not to mention the war ahead, the people are not happy, even the people living in the imperial capital, I am afraid that the people will be panicked! As soon as the war began, taxes were bound to increase. It's not easy to live this family, and as soon as the tax increases, how can you live these days? ”

Wan Ningzhu nodded lightly, I really didn't expect this little fisherman to have such a vision!

You must know that in those days, many people were illiterate and unreadable. It's really not easy for an ordinary person who doesn't know a few big characters to have such insight!

"Then the old prime minister means to go to war?" Wan Ningzhu raised the sensitivity of the topic to a higher level, and the fisherman still gushed before he realized it: "Yes! Look at the big ship. It's definitely not the old prime minister who came alone! If he had come on his own, he would not have come on his own boat, but would have been ferrying like you. Since the big ship is coming today, I'm afraid there are many important people on it! Hey, girl, you're out of luck today, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the top layer! ”

Wan Ningzhu smiled and nodded: "Actually, it makes no difference whether you go to the upper layer or not, looking at the lotus flowers all over the lake, I am already relaxed!" ”

The fisherman laughed and said, "Yes, yes, while there is no war yet, let's see more if you can!" Who knows what it will be like in the future? Now that all the fishermen with good water properties in Dongyue Country can be requisitioned and transferred, it's hard to say whether they can come back or not! ”

Wan Ningzhu's eyes lit up! This information is so important! Dongyue Country is recruiting fishermen with good water skills? What does this mean? War against the Southern Patriotic State?

At this time, the fisherman sighed again and said, "Hey, there are already two people in our family who have been conscripted, one is to the sea, and the other is to the border. We really can't be sure about this war! In fact, what can we, the little people, do? Isn't it time to eat and drink? ”

Wan Ningzhu's eyes became solemn, there are two people in a family, and this military service is very heavy!

It seems that this Dongyue Kingdom has really made a two-handed plan, and the preparation of both hands is afraid that he has a bigger appetite, not only wanting to help Beizhong in the west to deal with himself, but also wanting to attack Nanwei in the south! No matter whether it is to the west or to the south, and no matter which side is the main attack or which side is the feint attack, you have done your homework!

This Dongyue Country, in order not to let others speculate about the unfamiliarity of their country, actually played such a hand! False and real, let you scratch your head! He is completely different from other countries, he does not hide his strategic layout at all, but generously lets you see, you can see through the sky, but you can't see through our real thoughts!

If you don't guess wrong, this should be the strategic thinking of the old prime minister! This ginger is really old and spicy!

Wan Ningzhu sighed, how can he be bright? Old Prime Minister, I had a bad impression of you before because we were in different camps. But in the past few days of getting to know you, I suddenly have a sense of admiration for you!

A person who can think about the people and work for the country will always deserve respect!

It's a pity that we belong to different camps, and we are bound to fight to the death.

Let's see who can have the last laugh!

Wan Ningzhu continued to chatter with the fisherman for a while, and soon arrived at the island in the middle of the lake, got off the boat, and Wan Ningzhu saw that there were already many tourists on the island in the middle of the lake.

Including the bitter little county lord Musk Yue and her partner Zihan, both of them only brought a maid, and the four girls walked towards the building of the island in the middle of the lake with a smile.

Wan Ningzhu looked at their figures, and sighed lightly in her heart, she is not very old, but her heart is too old. It's as if those giggling green years have never appeared in their own lives.

Since childhood, I have been accustomed to life and death in concentration camps, and I am accustomed to seeing blood and war. Where can it still be messed up?

This is the difference in attitude towards life!

The old prime minister's big ship also slowly docked in front of the island, and someone hurriedly tied the boat and got off the plank, so that the people on the boat could get off the boat smoothly.

As soon as the boat was fixed, several figures appeared on the bow of the boat, and Wan Ningzhu's eyes were sharp, and at a glance, he saw an old man in the crowd who was unusually familiar.

I'm here! The old man who fed the pigs turned out to be really the old prime minister!

Wan Ningzhu felt a pang of chagrin in her mind, has her ability to recognize people degraded? It's not that I didn't guess this possibility, but I quickly denied that idea! Because she concluded that no matter how hard the old prime minister of the Prime Minister's Mansion was, he would not feed the pigs himself, and feed them for years or even decades, right?

But after today's conversation with the fisherman, this possibility is entirely possible!

Now that this possibility has been confirmed, it still makes Wan Ningzhu's heart deeply shocked! Having such a person as an opponent is definitely a tough battle for yourself! Because of the existence of such a person who must bow down to everything and be close to the people, the military will inevitably be united, the people's will will be wanted, and their own pressure is invincible!

It seems that if you want to win this Dongyue Kingdom, this old prime minister must die!

The old prime minister was dressed in cloth and mixed in a group of beautifully dressed people, not only did he not have any abruptness, but gave people a very harmonious feeling.

Don't look at the people who are wearing dogs, but they are absolutely respectful to the old prime minister!

The old prime minister was the first to get off the boat, and said to the others with a smile: "It's rare that the weather is good today, it's cool, and it's rare for everyone to be free. ”

The others chimed in and said, "Yes, yes, the teacher has worked hard all day, and it's really time to come out and relax!" ”

It turns out that these people are all students of the old prime minister, no wonder they are all so respectful! No wonder although the old prime minister has stepped down, he still controls the general lifeblood of this imperial court!

The old prime minister got out of the boat and happened to take a look at Wan Ningzhu who was standing by the lake.

The two men looked at each other for about three seconds, then staggered their gazes at the same time.

From the gaze just now, Wan Ningzhu saw the competitiveness and unwillingness in his eyes! Lao Ji is determined to be thousands of miles away!

Wan Ningzhu quietly turned around and blended into the rest of the crowd.

The old prime minister took two steps and turned back suddenly, but he could no longer find the young woman who had boldly looked at him just now.

That girl's eyes are so special, mixed with curiosity and competitiveness, but more of a tough and cold eyes that dominate the world. It's strange, how can a girl have such eyes? And is it so arrogant, so domineering?

"Teacher, what's wrong?" A beautifully dressed man, probably less than forty years old, stepped forward and was very considerate and thoughtful.

The old prime minister hesitated for a moment and said, "I saw a girl in the crowd just now. ”

The others exchanged glances, and none of them had the feeling of looking at each other and smiling at each other, but were all surprised. There are really not many women who can make the old prime minister admire!

"That girl's eyes are so special! There is an indescribable feeling, it seems to be a declaration of war! The old prime minister shook his head lightly and said: "It's a pity that I don't know which girl it is, if this woman is a man, I'm afraid she will have to build a great career!" ”

Old Prime Minister, Old Prime Minister, do you know where you lost? That's your mind, your concept! Who says women are inferior to men? Who said that a daughter's family can't make a contribution?

A few people forgot about this matter, continued to give in, and went up to the three-story building on the small island in the middle of the lake.

At this time, the tallest building on the third floor has been guarded and is strictly forbidden to other visitors.

The nobles are generally on the second floor, and the commoners are also on the first floor to see the scenery.

That's a strict hierarchy!

Wan Ningzhu stood in the pavilion on the first floor, overlooking the scenery, indescribably comfortable.

In the crowd around him, the talkers in twos and threes, Wan Ningzhu seemed to be enjoying the scenery and feeling the breath, but in fact, all the words said by the people around him were all listened to in their minds, and then quickly processed.

"Hey, I heard that there will be a tax increase next month, I really don't know how much it will be raised! Now a good deal, I'm afraid it's going to come to an end! ”

"yes, yes, I've heard that it's going to be taxed on the head! I'm afraid this war is really going to start! A few days ago, it was just a big soldier pressing the border, and this time I'm afraid it's going to be a real war! ”

"I have an older brother who is a blacksmith, who was conscripted into the army a few days ago, and when he came back, he said that the ordnance in the barracks is now working day and night, working overtime."

"Really? It's horrible! It's just that I don't know if it's Nan Zhongshu or Nan Weiguo to deal with! ”

"I think it must be Nan Weiguo! Don't you know yet? Is that Nanzhonglong's long-cherished female god of war so easy to deal with? That's a woman! The ability of just one person saved the whole army! That's not just a goddess of war, that's simply a goddess! ”

"yes, yes, I heard about that woman too. But I heard that she was originally a subject of our Dongyue Kingdom, why did she go to Zhongshu Kingdom? ”

"Hey, it's hard to put into words! I heard that this woman was kicked out by the Dongyue Kingdom! When she knows her true identity, it's too late to say anything, and she has already become a member of Zhongshu Country! Tsk, if she is still in our Dongyue Kingdom, then she is not invincible and dominates the existence of the Five Kingdoms? ”

"Shhhh The old prime minister is still on the third floor! You don't know yet? The old prime minister wanted this woman named Wanwan to die the most! ”

Wan Ningzhu's eyes lit up!

Want me to die? An old man who has never met me, let alone any misunderstandings and grievances, is actually the person who Dongyue Kingdom wants me to die the most?

Great, I'm really going to see it!
