After another two days, Yan Shiyi quietly returned to Beijing, and he entered the Green Fragrance Building with a spring breeze on his face.

"Shopkeeper Ji, make a pot of your most expensive new tea here!" He knocked a few times on the counter in front of Ji Baiyu, and said with a smile: "Lord is rich!" ”

"Then please Yan Gongzi, take the tea money you have drunk in Luxiang Building over the years, and settle it at the counter first." Ji Baiyu wrinkled his nose and replied disdainfully.

"Stingy!" Yan Shiyi turned around and dropped a sentence, raised his feet and went upstairs.

Ji Baiyu thought about it and felt that something was wrong: going out so proudly? There must be an affair.

Upstairs, Xie Ruijiao and Tang Yu were playing chess, Xie Ruizhang's white son surrounded Tang Yu's sunspot tightly, Yan Shiyi picked up a sunspot and put it in the middle of the two white seeds, which seemed to be self-throwing, but in fact, it was connected with the besieged sunspots, and actually broke the encirclement of Baizi!

Xie Ruijiao smiled and said, "Are you in good spirits on a happy event?" ”

"I think he went out and met a peach blossom, let's interrogate him well." Ji Baiyu personally carried a pot of this year's first spring Baihao silver needle upstairs and said.

Doctor Tang unexpectedly reached out and clasped Yan Shiyi's vein, and said thoughtfully, "Hmm...... The heart is fast and the pulse is urgent, this is the pulse of Sichun, and it is not fast to recruit from the truth! ”

"Your noses are so smart, it's a shame not to be a secret agent...... There really is a girl. Yan Shiyi smiled with his eyebrows: "This time I went to Hunan, and the fourth girl of the Cao Gang was also on the boat." There are a lot of riders in the West Factory, and the patrol time is very tight, and we can hardly find a chance to start.

Later, when I finally entered the room, and was about to start drugged, it happened that a team of Ti rode over, and the fourth girl Dai was in a hurry, lifted her skirt, lifted her legs, and stopped them from making a beauty trick, and we relied on her time for three or five sentences, and finally succeeded in doing it. ”

Yan Shiyi took a sip of tea and continued: "I just know that I really can't underestimate these women. In the front, there is Miss Cheng, who has good medical skills and is not flustered in case of trouble, and there is Miss Dai Si, who is witty and decisive. Oh, the courage and wisdom of the girl's family, sometimes even above us men, really admired. ”

"Why don't I ask Mr. Zhu to be a matchmaker?" Xie Ruijiao asked with a smile.

Yan Shiyi glanced at him and said slowly: "In the future, don't you want me to replace Wang Man as the factory director of Dongchang?" When you become a eunuch, do you want people to stay alive and widowed for the rest of their lives? ”

Wang Man's first eight righteous sons, because they often have to walk in the palace, all went castrated to become internal courtiers, starting from Yan Jiu, they are only in charge of foreign affairs, and when the ministers gather, they occasionally serve as guards with Jinyi Wei, so they are still men. If you are a factory man, follow the emperor, and often go in and out of the inner palace, you must be an inner servant.

Although Yan Shiyi was reluctant, he had long regarded this road as his fate---- if he could help Xie Ruijiao, he would be willing to admit his fate. Today, it was also the first time he had uttered this difficult sentence.

Xie Ruijiao laughed and said, "It turns out that what you care about is that you don't marry a relative?" You are my brother, just an east factory, it is not enough to exchange my brother's happiness. We can find a way to choose the Dongchang candidate, you don't have to worry about it, you have to help me have thousands of roads. Your marriage, wait for your sister-in-law to pass the door, let your sister-in-law handle it for you! ”

Yan Shiyi hurriedly waved his hand, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no, but it's just talking, I prefer to have no worries." Even if I don't take the East Factory, I'm a simple person, and I don't have anything to worry about my sister-in-law......"

Seeing that the people who usually looked at everything were so embarrassed, Tang Yu laughed out loud.

But Zhao Xiaohou, who was thousands of miles away, couldn't laugh.

They fought against the Japanese several times, but they did not take advantage of it in the slightest. One night, the Japanese invaders parked the big boat far away, quietly released a few small boats, went ashore and robbed a village, and when Zhao Xiaohou got the news and arrived with his troops, they had already left with a lot of money.

When people are gone, they know. Shen Congxi suspected that they were getting the lagging information, and someone did it on purpose. Unbeknownst to them, the Overseers reported the defeat and applied for a hundred thousand silver for the people.

Due to the unsatisfactory suppression of the Japanese invaders, Zhao Xiaohou and the others had no choice but to stay for a long time and plan to fight a protracted war with the Japanese invaders. This is the result of Zhang Zhiyao. What is hateful is that it has to be stationed for a long time, and there is a problem with food and wages.

"General, the grain and grass we brought out are exhausted, but the follow-up grain and grass did not arrive on time for unknown reasons." Li Bin reported: "The last general has been rushing for food, but I don't know if I can arrive within tomorrow." ”

"I thought that there were few Japanese and they were fighting a short battle, but I didn't expect that the Japanese were cunning, and so far, there has not been even a frontal battle, and the military rations have been consumed in vain!" Zhang Zhi said bitterly: "Vice General Li, from tomorrow, the rice and grain of this overseer army will be halved to set an example for the soldiers." ”

Zhao Xiaohou felt that he had given him a slap, if this slap could bring 10,000 military rations, the little marquis would admit it, but after saying that, the matter of cutting off food tomorrow was still not resolved!

In the inner account, Shen Congxi said: "You can't wait, according to the military law of the Celestial Empire, we can go to the county government to borrow grain, at most five days, and then return it to them when the military rations arrive." ”

"Good. You go with Vice Admiral Li, no matter how much, borrow some and come back to top one! "The little marquis originally hated the duplicitous county official Lin Youlu very much, but now he has to wait for the rice to be cooked.

Li Bin and Shen Congxi received the token and went to the county office. When they arrived at the county office, the county order family was having lunch in the inner hall, and when they got the report, Lin Youlu didn't even have time to wipe his mouth, so he hurriedly walked out of the inner hall.

When he heard Vice General Li's explanation, his face darkened, and then he collapsed: "Vice General Li, it's not that the lower officials don't want to help you, after all, we are a poor county that has been robbed by Japanese robbers all year round, and there is really no extra rice and grain to lend you." If the rice and grain are sufficient, we will not go to the Guangdong and Fujian provinces for relief every month! ”

Vice General Li said with a smiling face: "Just take this day or two, when the military rations arrive, we can pay them back immediately." ”

The county man copied his hand on the side and said: "We have no extra grain in the grain depot at all, you really want it, so you have to write a notice immediately and inform the people to pay the grain at the county office." If the people have any complaints, you will have to bear the ...... yourselves."

Vice Admiral Li had no choice but to arch his hand and turn away. After leaving the county government and seeing Shen Congxi, Li Bin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "There is no way, the county government has no surplus food." ”

Shen Congxi gave him a look, Li Bin immediately understood, and the two climbed over the wall and entered the county office. There is a wall next to the warehouse in the backyard, Shen Congxi can't do light work, and it's not bad to climb the wall. On the roof, he lifted a tile and asked Li Bin to look down, and a whole warehouse of bulging rice bags came into view.

The old boy lied to me! Li Bin was so angry that he wanted to go down and smash the county office.

Shen Congxi said confidently: "Wait, I'll go in with you and reason with them." ”
