,
Compared with Yasukuni, the climate in Da'an is still relatively warm, and although winter has begun and there have been a few snowfalls, the people in the city are still only wearing single-layer jackets. Ao Rui walked on the road, looking at the people of all households, pickling bacon, drying dried fish, what to do and what to do, and couldn't help but sigh with his friends Lin Li, "I have been stable for all these years, so that the people have forgotten what war is like." ”
"Actually, isn't it good," Lin Li said, "If the people are panicked, the city will be chaotic, and morale will be greatly reduced." ”
"Actually, the main reason is that this campaign did not urgently recruit troops from the people."
When Lin Li heard this, he couldn't help but agree, "This is thanks to Lord Du, before he left, he told the emperor that there will be a battle between Dajing and Baimeng in the future, so that Da'an secretly stepped up his training and preparedness." ”
Ao Rui admired the king of Yi back then, and the current emperor suddenly had a sense of admiration, and said, "Our emperor was still a child who was not as weak as the crown when he ascended the throne, and he was able to come up with this method." ”
"Yes, as long as you serve in the military, you can reduce taxes for your family, what a gentle means."
Although Da'an is small, because of the relationship between terrain and resources, the treasury is sufficient, as long as there is no shortage of silver, there is no need to loot the people, the people's life is good, there are not so many complaints, and relatives and friends who are far away in the military camp can also train with peace of mind. This is the so-called virtuous circle.
Ao Rui said: "No wonder the prince and Miss Ji wanted to help our emperor succeed to the throne, he was really a wise man with a good heart." In addition, the general's younger brother is assisted by the emperor's side, which is also a personal essence. ”
The two smiled heartily, and Ao Rui said, "You can come to Chongsheng Pass with me, I feel a lot more at ease." ”
Originally, Ao Rui and Ji Yun were guarding Tongyang Pass, and they were the deputy generals under Ji Yun, but the situation between Dajing and Baimeng became increasingly tense, and the emperor promoted him to his rank and let him take over Chongsheng Pass.
Lin Li said, "You and my brother, what are you doing when you say this, in fact, General Ji is not worried about you, after all, this is the territory of the Zhong family." You are upright, afraid that you will be bad at calculating. ”
Ao Rui said, "I think you think a little too much, I am, I will still be a fellow countryman with him, although I had a little holiday with his eldest son Zhong Han when I was a child, but what is that little festival?"
"You, General Ji just don't worry about your too frank temperament, you think everyone is like you, don't take the festival to heart, but Vice General Zhong wants to replace General Chu, but you are robbed by you, the general who fell from the sky."
"Hey, okay, what didn't happen, isn't this the heart of a villain to spend the belly of a gentleman" Ao Rui felt that at the moment of the great enemy, Zhong Meng would not care about these things regardless of the importance of these things. "Today's wine is still Zhong Han's help Zhang Luo, let's not have a small belly chicken intestines, everyone is still waiting for us."
Lin Li glared at him, and when he saw that he couldn't persuade him, he didn't say anything, so they had been here for more than half a year, and the Zhong family really didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
Although Chongshengguan has become in Da'an, it is also rich and happy at this time, the night ink star is coming, the lights are bright next to the Fengqiao, and the lanterns of the painting boat on the lake are swaying with red light reflected on the water, which is very good-looking.
Today is Ao Rui to do the east, he let the clock

Han helped him book a medium-sized painting boat, just enough for some acquaintances to come and get together.
Ao Rui doesn't often come to paint boats and other places, but he has been too busy in the past six months since he arrived, and he has not invited his colleagues and subordinates to talk about it in the same room. This is today's wine game. Lin Li is right, there is no harm in having a lot of contacts with colleagues and subordinates. What's more, everyone was in awe because of his cautious dealings with the red Ji family brothers in front of the emperor, which made him really integrate into this circle and had some more obstacles, for fear of accidentally offending him and having to suffer. Of course, there are also those who come to talk to him.
But none of this is what he wants, what he wants is a real heart-to-heart integration.
After the lights are lit, the boats gradually become lively, and the sound of dance and music is heard from time to time. Ao Rui got on the boat, and everyone was waiting for him during the banquet, but because the contact time was still short, the atmosphere in the venue was a little cold. Seeing this, Zhong Han hurriedly introduced the topic, they are all military generals and guards, and most of them don't know those sour poetry pairs, so they talk together, talk about the world, and some guess and draw fists for fun. After a while, the atmosphere became much more lively.
Ao Rui smiled and nodded to thank Zhong Han, Zhong Han looked sincere and saluted him back.
Lin Li looked at these in his eyes, thinking that maybe he was really thinking too much. He sat cross-legged behind the small table and communicated with the people next to him. He is a self-acquaintance, and compared to Ao Rui, he is already familiar with the people here. After all, he is a subordinate like everyone else. As long as there is no faction, they will not exclude their peers. "Is there anything new in our city today?"
The person who was questioned was named Kong Xian, and on the outside, he looked like a weak scholar and was as elegant as a scholar, but in fact he was a rough man with a broken mouth. "Of course there's something new," Kong first picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine, then laughed twice and said, "You want to hear about that alley"
The hutong mentioned by Kong Xian is a place where fireworks gather in the city. Lin Li smacked at him, "Phew, Lao Kong, do you think I'm like you, I care about those two alleys all day long, you say something else"
Kong Xian sat cross-legged, and when he didn't speak, he had the demeanor of a noble son, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he said in a rough voice, "Bah, bah, Lao Tzu is a man, what's wrong with caring about women's homes, is it possible that his eyes want to stare at your little white face."
Lin Li's face darkened when he said it, Kong Xian raised his eyebrows and said, "If you are really good at this, I really know where to go."
Lin Li stretched out his fist, "If you talk nonsense, let's go out and compete."
"Oh, no, no, don't be rough on the wine table" Kong Xian waved his hand again and again, stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth, and saw that Lin Li was really angry, so he hurriedly put away the hippie smile and said, "There is one thing new, but this, it's not easy to say."
"It's hard to say what's going on," Lin Li suddenly became interested.
Kong Xian squeezed his eyes at him, indicating that it was about Zhong Han, Lin Li was stunned, suspicious in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Don't worry, I promise not to spread it"
When Kong Xian heard him say this, he pulled Lin Li's sleeve and asked him to come over, and said, "I heard that Zhong Han brought a woman back, saying that she was the fiancée she had set before, but the marriage contract had been dissolved. ”
Kong Xianyi is always more excited than the business of others, and he is energetic

squeezed his eyebrows, Lin Li was already surprised, "Since the marriage contract was dissolved, why did you bring it back?"
"I heard that something was wrong in the woman's family, and he got the news to save it."
"Hey, since you are so concerned, isn't it that Zhong Han still has an interest in this woman" Lin Li asked and felt that it was not right, what was the matter with the two of them talking about the fiancée of others. "Well, what do you say about this, it's nothing new. You change one. ”
"Can you listen to me?" Kong Chang slapped his thigh, glared, and said, "I don't know if Zhong Han has any intention for that girl, but that girl was rescued by him from Dajing."
"Yasukuni people"
Hearing Lin Li's question, Kong Chang nodded with a fluttering eyebrow. "That day, I happened to bump into the woman in the city and got out of the carriage, although she couldn't see clearly with a hat, but she should be a very outstanding woman, Zhong Han looked like she was cold and warm. When he saw me, he was a little uncomfortable at first, and then he said some reasons in a sentence or two. ”
Lin Li let out an "oh", thinking that this Zhong Han was still infatuated
Here the two broke away from the crowd and muttered, and finally the others noticed and dragged them over to drink. The two of them put aside the topic and joined the crowd. While everyone was in full swing, a woman's voice suddenly came from the bow of the boat.
Ao Rui looked out and saw several women standing outside the cabin, and the shadows were not clear to see their faces, but they were either holding the pipa or the guqin in their arms, presumably singing and dancing. Then he asked, "What's the matter?"
The owner of the boat immediately stepped forward and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, these are the singers of the windy building. The villain is here to ask if you need a little song to help you have fun."
Ao Rui didn't know much about this, so he looked at Zhong Han, and Zhong Han explained to him, "Fengmanlou is a song and dance workshop in Beijing, and some singers and dancers will do some private work between various painting boats and boats without invitation. It's not a big deal. ”
"Then let them in." Ao Rui heard the words and let a few women in, after all, these people are rough men, and they are not taboo when they are outside, and he doesn't want to be too special in front of everyone. And these women did not look as glamorous and frivolous as they usually see, so they asked, "I am negligent because of the music that is indispensable for such a good day." ”
Everyone present is a general, and all they are good about is military exploits, wine, meat and women. Although no one will do anything ridiculous, but when they are full of wine and food, and they have a good conversation, there are a few beautiful singers to help them, which is a joy in life, and naturally no one objects.
A woman with a lute in her arms stepped into the cabin and knelt in the center of the cabin, her fingertips flowing and the music pouring out. The woman was not disturbed by the sound of words, and the sound of the pipa was like a tide and waves, and it was not overshadowed by the noise in the slightest, but let people clearly hear her plucked music jumping lightly in the cabin, and the echo was faint. Ao Rui said: "The skills are indeed exquisite. ”
Zhong Han said: "The wind is full of buildings, and Le Ji is famous for her excellent skills. ”
Kong Xian said on the side, "It's good to hear, it's just that here and now can only help the fun." can't be called a beauty, and he can't be called a self-knowledge, and he has lost a little interest. ”
