Old Man Xiao invited Yuan Zheng to the inner room, a fire pit, three rooms, and a kitchen.

There is no need to use a fire pit to keep warm in summer, but it is almost autumn, and this fire pit may continue to be idle, probably not, because Yuan Zheng doesn't know how long Old Man Xiao will stay in the land south of the Yangtze River.

Old man Xiao said: "I cook some rice, thin rice soup, steamed buns, and some seasonal side dishes, Gongzi thinks, are you satisfied?"

"As Childe can see, I naturally don't have any good wine and meat here. ”

Yuan Zheng said from the goodness: "Satisfied, of course satisfied, the seniors personally cooked, how dare I say a word." ”

Old Man Xiao laughed and went to work in the kitchen.

I regret a little, this time I came here, I came empty-handed, and if I brought a gift to Mr. Xiao, it seemed a little worldly, and if I didn't bring a gift, I didn't know the rules very well.

When it comes to the realm of Old Man Xiao, his preferences are really not so easy to guess.

There is no way, Zhong Nan did not specifically explain these things to Yuan Zheng at the beginning, in fact, Zhong Nan himself didn't know what Old Man Xiao liked and what he didn't like.

Taking advantage of Old Man Xiao's free time to cook, Yuan Zheng walked out of the house and walked outside.

The scenery is infinitely good, the location of the earthen house, sitting in the north and facing south, the feng shui is excellent, you can see the sunset, you can also see the sun rising in the east, the flowing water is there, there is no small bridge, but there is a green grassland in the distance.

In the distance, there is a dark forest.

The river is clear, the blue waves are endless, and there is a field of its own crops and its own vegetable garden.

It is completely self-sufficient and lives a life free from the world.

I don't know how Zhong Nan came here in the first place, and what kind of coincidence he met Old Man Xiao.

However, around Qinling, there are indeed some famous houses, Old Man Xiao is one, and Guiguzi is also one.

I just don't know, there are no other big guys.

Soon after, Old Man Xiao cooked a meal.

In the main house, there are baskets of steamed buns, the steamed buns are black-faced steamed buns, although they don't look good, they are full and round, and the layers are rich.

The feeling of taking a bite is real, not vain.

Cold vegetables are all wild vegetables that Yuan Zheng can't name between the mountains and fields.

The taste is quite chewy, and it is also a pleasure to eat it with steamed buns.

The rice soup is a serious thin rice soup, and there are no condiments added to it, which is very ordinary.

When Old Man Xiao was eating, he paid careful attention to Yuan Zheng's eating appearance, chewed and swallowed slowly, it seemed to be the habit of the children of the family, but it was not the demeanor of the children of the family.

said with a smile: "Does the division where Gongzi was before have the rule of eating without words and sleeping without words?"

Yuan Zheng raised his head and said: "Yes, it's really like this, when people at a table eat, they must chew with extremely harsh restraint, and they can't make a chirping sound, and as for speaking, it is not allowed." ”

"Actually, my father didn't like to talk during meals, and he didn't pay special attention to it, but he was afraid that his meal would be delayed. ”

Old Man Xiao smiled and said: "I originally thought that when you were eating with me, you would humbly ask me about things like teaching and governing the country, but you didn't speak, it seems that I spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”

Yuan Zheng hurriedly said: "Actually, there are still such thoughts, if you want to say no, it will seem that I am more hypocritical and arrogant." ”

"The reason why I didn't ask is because you are Zhong Nan's master, and I can't cut Zhong Nan's corner. ”

"It's not exquisite, and the appearance is a little ugly. ”

"Furthermore, what I have learned is a lot of things, and it sounds like a great thing, but in fact, it is really difficult to do, and some people are just suitable for learning a craft, and the art is not pressing. ”

"If my seniors teach me, I guess I won't be able to catch the moves, just like I often can't catch Zhong Nan's moves. ”

After hearing this, Old Man Xiao smiled knowingly and said: "You young man, you are quite interesting, I guess your master loves you very much." ”

Yuan Zheng said truthfully: "Actually, I have two masters, Dugu Xin is my master, I think the predecessors already know, but I also have another master." ”

"My master has never had any intention of asking me for warmth, but he just taught me skills, occasionally gave me guidance, and only opened the golden mouth at the most critical time, and like Zhong Nan, I can't see that master a few times all year round. ”

Speaking of Guiguzi, of course Yuan Zheng remembered in his heart that Guiguzi was so good to him, if it were not for Guiguzi's careful teaching, there would be no Yuan Zheng today.

can be too much of Guiguzi, who does not eat fireworks in the world, which leads to Yuan Zheng not knowing how to get along with Guiguzi many times.

Every time, there seems to be nothing else to do except serious things.

Old Man Xiao smiled: "Your master, I will definitely worry about you in my heart, but I am not good at expressing it." ”

Yuan Zheng smiled helplessly: "This is wrong, my master is still the best at expressing the knowledge and righteousness he has mastered." ”

To say that Guiguzi is not good at expressing it, this is a bit ridiculous.

Old Man Xiao was slightly stunned, and for a while he was also curious about Yuanzheng's other master, but he didn't ask anything.

Yuan Zheng felt that in front of Old Man Xiao like this, there was no need to hide it.

This matter was known to Shan Rong, Dongfang Mingyue, and Fu Xuanhuang.

Anyway, someone already knows, so you might as well let Old Man Xiao know.

said softly: "Actually, my other master is Guiguzi, many people are curious about who my other master is, but I don't say anything about my low-key account." ”

Old Man Xiao's heart suddenly chuckled, and he suddenly realized: "I'll just say, it's reasonable that you have Liuhe Qi in your body, but there are two true elements in your body, one vertical and one horizontal, reflecting each other, I guessed in my heart that your master is Guiguzi, but I don't dare to confirm it." ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "My master Guiguzi existed a long time ago, and many people felt that my master had disappeared in the long river of history, in fact, he had been there, silently staring at something. ”

Old Man Xiao said: "There are some things that I can't see, but your master may be able to see it." ”

Yuan Zheng smiled proudly: "I remember the last time I was in Jiuzhen County, it was also the bridgehead of Jiuzhen Bridge, Qi Yongnian kept asking me who my master was, I didn't say it at the time, because, if I said it, Qi Yongnian wouldn't believe it, if I really said it, Qi Yongnian probably wouldn't give me his proud Twelve Heavenly Wolves." ”

Old Man Xiao smiled and said, "Is there anything else to pay attention to?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "There is actually no horizontal relationship between Qi Yongnian's predecessors and me, he doesn't like me, he doesn't hate me, and he doesn't appreciate me, he just said that he unilaterally thinks I'm not bad as a young man." ”

"When I met with Qi Yongnian's seniors, the Twelve Heavenly Wolves were in the post house in Qingshan County, I didn't know what was going on at the time, but after thinking about it, I reacted. ”

"The post house, that's a temporary resting place, if I dissatisfy Qi Yongnian's seniors, the Twelve Heavenly Wolves will immediately arrive at the post house in the next state and county from the post house in Qingshan County. ”

"Thankfully, I thought I was smart. ”

"Otherwise, you will miss out on the Twelve Heavenly Wolves. ”

Old Man Xiao laughed and said, "I didn't expect Qi Yongnian to do such an interesting thing." ”

Yuan Zheng knew in his heart that in fact, Qi Yongnian didn't look down on Yuan Zheng, but Yuan Zheng made a little appearance by himself, which made Qi Yongnian look sideways slightly, and on the premise of not worrying, he still met in person to test Yuan Zheng's talent and knowledge.

In the end, he got the answer, and only then did he explain the twelve heavenly wolves to Yuan Zheng.

Secretly, there is naturally another group of people who unknowingly arrived in the camp of the eldest brother Yuanqing, just to see if the eldest brother can find out.

Yuan Zhengdao: "I heard that you are very familiar with Qi Yongnian's predecessors, and you were also old friends at the beginning?"

Old man Xiao recalled the events of the year and said: "I am very familiar, I used to travel to study in other countries together, and I was really a confidant and friend on the road, and when it was the most difficult, I had no food to eat, and he only had half a steamed bun left in his pocket, and he still gave me half of it." ”

"It's just that later, somehow they parted ways. ”

"I want to follow the path of the queen and the saint, he wants to follow the path of domineering and heaven. ”

"We were still young at the time, and we didn't know what the difference was between the two paths. ”

"Even when there was a discord with ideas and aspirations, they were all young and vigorous, and they parted ways in a fit of anger. ”

"Later, when we entered the Heavenly Realm, it is estimated that everyone found out that in fact, the two people walked different paths in name, but in fact, they were the same. ”

"When I was young, I parted ways because of incompatible ambitions, and when I got older, I really parted ways because of my age, but the teenagers at the beginning actually stayed in each other's hearts, I often think of Qi Yongnian here, and Qi Yongnian will probably think of me often. ”

In this world, there is no one else who can be with Qi Yongnian except for Old Man Xiao.

Yuan Zhengdao: "Maybe after you go down the mountain this time, you will meet Qi Yongnian's seniors." ”

Old Man Xiao asked strangely, "Are you so sure?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "Actually, Qi Yongnian is a very shrewd person, he has already noticed that Zhong Nan's master is you, and he must have secretly sent someone to secretly observe Zhong Nan's every move." ”

"Moreover, I always feel that where there is a major person, or something major, Qi Yongnian's predecessors will always appear as soon as possible. ”

After hearing this, Old Man Xiao smiled softly and said: "Actually, we really met, I really don't know what to say, after all, I haven't seen each other for so many years." ”

Yuan Zheng Shi Ran said: "Then take the road of your youth to the side, but in other words, this kind of thing applies to lovers, but the two of you are confidants, and you should be able to take such a road." ”

Old Man Xiao laughed and said, "You little guy, you are so wilted and rotten." ”

Yuan Zheng innocently took a sip of rice soup.

There is one thing, Yuan Zheng has always been very suspicious in his heart, but he doesn't know who to ask for verification of this matter, and he happened to meet Old Man Xiao, so he asked by the way.

But before asking, Yuan Zheng still asked tentatively: "I want to ask the seniors a question, if the seniors find it convenient to answer, then answer, if it is not convenient to answer, just drink a sip of rice soup, how about it." ”

Old Man Xiao blinked his eyes and responded, "Then you can ask, and I am willing to answer questions for young people like you." ”

Yuan Zheng asked earnestly: "Senior Qi Yongnian once told me that he has always looked at His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei unpleasantly, but I myself don't know Qi Yongnian's predecessor so well that I can't judge the truth of this sentence." ”

"Besides, the twelve heavenly wolves are indeed under my command. ”

"If I go to verify this matter with great fanfare, I am also afraid that it will hurt the heart of Qi Yongnian's seniors. ”

"Anyway, there are no outsiders in this mountain wilderness, so I asked. ”

Old Man Xiao took a sip of rice soup, and when he saw Old Man Xiao drinking rice soup, Yuan Zheng's heart sank.

It's like a piece of gravel that sinks to the bottom of a lake.

As a result, Old Man Xiao suddenly raised his head again, which made Yuan Zheng surprised and delighted.

Old Man Xiao said: "This is true. ”

Yuan Zheng regretted it a little, and said: "I knew that this was the case, I shouldn't have asked like this, this time I spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, I hope that Qi Yongnian's predecessors will not know about this matter for the rest of his life, and the eldest brother will not know about it." ”

Old Man Xiao smiled: "It's excusable, you are still young." ”

"Qi Yongnian didn't look serious, but actually did a lot of obscure things. ”

"The monarch of Great Wei is not narrow-minded, but he is definitely not a broad-minded person. ”

"Governing a country has always been a criterion for singing and dancing, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but the selfishness of the monarch of the Great Wei is too heavy, if it weren't for this, your father would not have married Princess Qiuhua as his wife. ”

"But there is no way to do this, after all, you and I are not the kings of a country, what the monarch of Great Wei did is also correct, as an emperor, it should also be. ”

But sometimes, it is inevitable to meet some people who don't like him, and Qi Yongnian is one of them. ”

"Things are so boring, some people like it, and some people don't like it. ”

Yuan Zheng nodded knowingly, and did not continue to ask, in that case, his eating appearance would be a little ugly, and he would be somewhat worthy of the name of the disciple of Guigu.

Old Man Xiao suddenly said: "I like Zhong Nan very much, but I also hate it at this time." ”

Yuan Zheng asked in confusion: "Senior, why did you say this, could it be that Zhong Nan also did something sorry for you." ”

Old Man Xiao said seriously: "Of course there is, I took away my granddaughter Xiao Zizhen, so that no one cooked for me." ”

"It's so bad for me that I need to eat three meals a day. ”

Yuan Zheng almost laughed.

Men are more or less the same, not very fond of those things on the stove.

Old Man Xiao is no exception.

Yuan Zhengdao: "You can say this sentence in front of Zhong Nan and see what kind of reaction he has." ”

Old Man Xiao quipped: "I originally thought the same way, otherwise, I wouldn't have gone down the mountain with you." ”

Yuan Zheng seems to have done another thing to be sorry for Zhong Nan.

After eating, Old Man Xiao didn't have anything to prepare, and followed Yuan Zheng with a breeze on his sleeves, in this earthen house, there were no local products, nor any gold and silver.

As long as Old Man Xiao is willing to leave, it will be a great joy for Zhong Nan and Xiao Zizhen.

After Old Man Xiao and Yuan Zheng left here, there were several demon beasts around the earthen house, forming a posture of arching and guarding everything here.

The way down the mountain was not in a hurry.

Old Man Xiao walked, and Yuan Zheng didn't dare to ride on the body of the clouds.

Yuan Zheng asked curiously: "I don't know what you think of those scholars under Zhongnan Mountain, senior?"

Selling fame and fame and selling knowledge, this kind of thing is also the root of the contempt of literati.

Under the nose of a famous man in the world, he did such a thing, but fortunately, this famous man is tired of worldly battles.

Old Man Xiao touched his beard, it was a little long, and a long beard was beautiful.

said calmly: "They are also forced to eat, and the scholars also have to eat, although some people come to Zhongnan Mountain with the intention of making a name for themselves, which is a way of survival." ”

"If someone sees it, they take it away, and if no one takes a fancy it, they just wait for others to take a fancy to it. ”

"We can't force anything. ”

Yuan Zheng asked very seriously: "Then at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, is there a real talent?"

Old man Xiao quipped: "If you have, you have, and if you don't, you don't." ”

Yuan Zheng was a little confused, and after thinking about it, this is also true, even if there is, it is the kind of person who is usually silent and inconspicuous, and he may be dusty, or he may shine, it depends on whether there is that qi.

"I met a scholar who had studied the fragments of the Guiyuan Daozang in a serious way, and I wanted to bring him back and become a teacher to teach more scholars for me. ”

"But I thought about it, and I forgot it again. ”

"In a feng shui treasure like Zhongnan Mountain, doing worldly things and utilitarian things is not acceptable to Zhongnan Mountain, and it is also disrespectful to Zhongnan Mountain. ”

Old Man Xiao smiled and said: "It is a good thing to have such a gentleman's style, but don't despise those scholars who sell their reputation at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain." ”

"Some of them, after going astray, may have gone astray, but they have tossed up some incredible knowledge. ”

Yuan Zheng smiled and said: "It's mine, it's mine after all, it's not mine, and I don't plan to force it, to be honest, I've got enough in the land of the Great Qin Dragon Vein, and I can't go too far as I can behave and do things." ”

Old Man Xiao laughed and said: "Yes, even if you are already the master and have a lack of foundation, you can abide by the rules of leaving a line in everything and seeing each other well in the future, which is also commendable." ”

Being able to get such praise from Old Man Xiao is something that many young people in the world cannot seek.

The two of them had a tacit understanding, and they didn't stay at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain for too long, and Old Man Xiao took Yuan Zheng and stepped out of the boundary of Zhongnan Mountain in one step.

The southern foot of the Qinling Mountains.

Cloud Upper City, Old Man Xiao loved such a place for the first time, and he was also amazed by Yuan Zheng, a young man who had his own city, which was not built by himself, but built by himself.

It is not very difficult to capture a city, but it is really difficult to build a city.

Rather than taking it by force, it is better to have it yourself, and the knowledge and righteousness in it are deep.

Old Man Xiao, who came to Cloud Upper City for the first time, was quite curious about everything here, and he felt the breath of Pixiu and the breath of Tiangu.

There are even white jade unicorns, wind dragons, etc.

Yuan Zheng directly took Old Man Xiao into the Hall of Ten Thousand Generations.

Since Old Man Xiao has come here in person, no matter what, he has to let the peppercorns and fennel cook a meal and eat it.

In a small courtyard of the Hall of Ten Thousand Worlds, Old Man Xiao walked here comfortably, looking left and right, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, whether he vaguely recalled his youth and wanted to own a city's dream.

Yuan Zheng sent a handle to inform pepper and fennel to go to the kitchen to work, and he personally accompanied Old Man Xiao.

He said softly, "Senior, what do you think of me here?"

"Is it decent?"

Old Man Xiao smiled slightly: "More than decent, the foundation is a little vain, when you go to the next city, it will be even more decent." ”

Yuan Zheng smiled and said: "Actually, even I think so, to be a gang in the rivers and lakes and have such a city, it may be more than a famous and authentic sect, as a prince, it is really not enough to see." ”

"I'm still, silently working hard for it. ”

Zhong Nan, too. ”

The first feeling of Old Man Xiao when he came here was that there was a strong human touch, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the soldiers were united.

How to improve the situation is also a capable person.

Turning his head, a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a purple Taoist robe and a purple and gold crown came slowly.

Su Yi came, and as Yuan Zheng expected, he really left the customs after he left the cloud city.

Seeing this, Old Man Xiao folded his hands slightly and said, "I heard that Yuan Zheng Gongzi has a good senior brother, but now it seems that it is really good." ”

Su Yi is here, according to the seniority, in fact, Su Yi's generation is on par with Old Man Xiao, and the same is true for Yuan Zheng, but because of Zhong Nan's relationship, Yuan Zheng has become the junior of Old Man Xiao according to the situation.

Measured by talent, Su Yi's talent, compared with Qi Yongnian and Old Man Xiao, is actually not much inferior, or even better, but it is a little unsatisfactory, that is, in the area of martial arts cultivation, it is not as good as Old Man Xiao and Qi Yongnian.

Su Yi smiled politely and said: "I have seen Your Excellency, I have already felt the breath of a strong man in the Hall of Ten Thousand Worlds, in fact, many years ago, when I traveled the rivers and lakes, I was fortunate to see you in the Great Wei Imperial City." ”

Old Man Xiao thought for a while and said: "That may really have happened many years ago, many years ago, I missed Mr. Su Yi's scenery, it's a little regrettable." ”

Now that we all know that Su Yi is also a teacher of Guiguzi, there is no need for too much red tape.

When two talented people get together, they can instinctively feel each other's catties.

Yuan Zheng felt that it seemed inconvenient for him to speak at this moment.

The three of them sat around a table and served tea and poured water, which naturally fell on Yuan Zheng's body.

For his senior brother Su Yi, Yuan Zheng maintained a deep awe in his heart, just talking about governing the country and commanding the army, Yuan Zheng is definitely not Su Yi's opponent, but Su Yi doesn't like to show his head very much, he has not fought, it doesn't mean that he won't.

The tea here was also collected by Su Yi from the depths of the Qinling Mountains.

The topography of the Qinling Mountains is relatively complex, and the taste of tea leaves is naturally different for tea trees in different regions.

After Old Man Xiao took a sip, he suddenly felt refreshed, which can make the powerhouses of the Heavenly Realm have such a feeling, which is enough to prove that this tea is extraordinary.

smiled and said, "I'm in Zhongnan Mountain, but I can't drink such good tea." ”

Su Yi responded: "There is more, if Your Excellency does not dislike it, when you leave, I will give you a sack and take it back to drink slowly, there is not much else in the depths of the Qinling Mountains, it is rare and exotic fruits, and there are more tea trees." ”

Old Man Xiao said heartily: "Such a good tea, it is actually measured by a sack, Mr.'s heart is really big enough." ”

Su Yi said indifferently: "My heart is big or not, it all depends on who the other party is, junior brother Yuan Zheng came to me to drink tea, it has always been just a cup, there is no superfluity, people like Your Excellency are here, you can use a sack to measure." ”

Yuan Zheng said innocently: "In this way, Senior Brother really has hidden a lot of private goods." ”

Su Yi said kindly: "You are often not in the cloud and go to the city, and I can't hide private goods, it's not because you're not here." ”

For a while, Yuan Zheng had nothing to say.

Old Man Xiao smiled and said, "That's the same, it's not appropriate for you to stay here if you're not here." ”

Yuan Zheng was even more speechless and smiled awkwardly.

After a while, peppercorns and fennel arrived with a hot meal.

Filled on the table, eight vegetarian dishes, six meat dishes, and one soup.

The fragrance was fragrant, and Su Yi invited: "Your Excellency, please dine." ”

"This is not coarse tea and light rice, please taste it. ”

Old Man Xiao took a bite with great interest, and suddenly felt that his tongue was numb, and praised again and again: "It's really the best in the world." ”

"With such cooking skills, even in the palace compound, I'm afraid they will all be condescended. ”

Su Yi said: "The cooking skills of peppercorns and fennel, in terms of the world, can be compared with them, and they will not exceed the number of five fingers. ”

"But he has always been under the command of Yuan Zheng's junior brother, and there is no way, who will let the family have the luck to spoil the market. ”

Old Man Xiao laughed and said: "You can't say that, maybe I met Yuan Zheng, and this kind of cooking can make more people taste it." ”

This is also true, if there is no Yuan Zheng, the craftsmanship of pepper and fennel, only Su Yi and Guiguzi can taste tea.

While eating and chatting, they are all topics of scenery and humanities.

There is no talk of the current war, and there is no discussion of the future situation.

It's just a small get-together.

Count the days, there are seven more days, it will be autumn, the first day or two of autumn, Pang Hai in Jizhou will not act rashly, but whether Yuan is moving or not, it is not clear.

Su Yi had already given the order to the territory of Lingzhou.

The officers and men of all ministries are making preparations.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Su Yi and Old Man Xiao talked happily, and it sounded like some innocuous things, such as health preservation, such as cultivation, such as scenery.

Yuan Zheng didn't interject, just quietly accompanied.

He didn't understand these things himself, so how could he be embarrassed to interject.

It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened that Su Yi and Old Man Xiao reluctantly said goodbye.

Go to Jiangnan, relive old dreams, go to Jiangnan, and meet Zhongnan.

From the moment Old Man Xiao descended the mountain, he did not put it in the clouds, but in Jiangnan.

Yuan Zheng felt that since he had mixed a meal with others, he naturally had to pay tribute in return.

Before leaving, Old Man Xiao asked Yuan Zheng, "Aren't you going to go with me?"

Yuan Zheng replied embarrassedly: "This period of time, I'm afraid I can't reach the land of Jiangnan, in a few days, there will be another war, if I go, in Lingzhou, maybe the army is unstable, and there is Zhong Nan in the south of the Yangtze River to preside over the overall situation, almost as stable as Mount Tai." ”

After hearing this, Old Man Xiao was not angry in his heart, but praised him: "I appreciate your sense of proportion, please let me go down the mountain, I will go down the road after the mountain, Zhong Nan is waiting there, as a middleman, you don't do anything superfluous." ”

"It is also an honor for Zhong Nan to meet such a master. ”

Yuan Zheng bowed deeply with his hands and said: "Actually, I myself have now become a figure of right and wrong, if I go to Jiangnan with you, if I encounter some ambush or something on the way, wouldn't it be a drag on my seniors." ”

"Even though the predecessors are masters of the Heavenly Realm, they are not afraid of all enemies. ”

"But if something like this happens, I'll be sorry for it. ”

"Besides, if there is a Heavenly Realm master who specially ambushes me, wouldn't there be no tears of suffering. ”

"On the contrary, it is a senior, go alone, you may meet your confidants and friends in the past on the way, a person's purity, the most rare, a journey, even if you are lonely, will think about a lot of things. ”

Old Man Xiao was pleased: "The understanding is good, and the great cause can be expected." ”

After that, Old Man Xiao stepped out and left the cloud city.

After Old Man Xiao left, Senior Brother Su Yi looked at Yuan Zheng angrily and said: "You are chic, let you guard the center, you went to Zhongnan Mountain to invite this old man to come out of the mountain, let you do something serious, you just did something elegant." ”

Yuan Zheng quipped: "Actually, I know that Senior Brother went to the depths of the Qinling Mountains not to retreat, but to search for tea, right?"

Su Yi's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief, "How did you know?"

Yuan Zheng laughed and said: "When you want to send a sack of tea to Old Man Xiao, I already doubted it, but I didn't dare to confirm it, but since you admit it yourself now, then I can only acquiesce." ”

Su Yi really wanted to slap herself, and she lost to Yuan Zheng for such a thing.

The two brothers slowly entered the Hall of Ten Thousand Ages.

After the autumn, the situation will become tense, but fortunately, that Song Qing still kept his promise, and after recruiting enough troops and horses, he left Crescent County, and Caftan Brown had already sent a junior disciple to take charge of Crescent County.

Regarding how much Song Qing recruited troops, Yuan Zheng didn't care so much.

Curiously asked, "Where did Song Qing go, did he enter the land of Great Qin?"

Su Yi said: "Originally, it was just a guess, but now it seems that there seems to be an enmity between Song Qing and Daqin Tieqi. ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "Judging from Song Qing's luck, how long can he last in the land of Great Qin, can he really become a climate, or is it an embroidered pillow." ”

Recruitment is true, and army expansion is real.

However, under the command of Song Qing, there are not many people who can really fight, and most of them are old foundations, as for the recruits, whether they dare to go to the battlefield or not, it is still a matter of two words.

Su Yi said: "Song Qing has one thing to do very smart, most of the people who recruit soldiers and horses are lonely and widowed, most of them are young and strong people from poor families, most of them have no families, and they have no worries in their hearts. ”

"On the border of the Wei River, there is a small city, called Mucheng, if the Song and Qing Dynasty take the Mucheng, it is equivalent to having their own shelter, around the Mucheng, surrounded by mountains, can ambush hundreds of thousands of soldiers, using the terrain, can be completely invincible. ”

"As for whether Song Qing has the ability to take Mucheng, it's not clear. ”

Yuan Zheng said firmly: "Song Qing will definitely take Mucheng, I believe that Song Qing, this man's wolf ambition, will not disappear so quickly in the world of great controversy." ”

Su Yi smiled: "Let's see for yourself first, whether you can take the land of Jizhou." ”

Jizhou has a vast terrain, in addition to the three counties, there are not a few scattered cities around.

According to the territory, Jizhou is completely equal to two Lingzhou.

The army of 500,000 is a little small in the land of Jizhou.

Take Jizhou and recruit troops, and Yuanzheng's strength will be greatly improved.

Yuan Zheng said with a smile: "I plan to let Chen Gui send the Sky Chariot and the Earth Chariot, Zhang Wei and Liu Yong to take the lead in the charge, and by the way, let Wang Wei lead his 15,000 recruits to the battlefield to experience some training, and during the mountain battle, let Fu Xuanhuang send the sword master of the Sword Casting Pavilion to clear the obstacles." ”

"Actually, I'm not afraid that Pang Hai will fight me head-on, but I'm worried that Pang Hai will set up an ambush for me outside Jizhou and fight guerrilla warfare for me. ”

"I've been thinking in my heart about how to get Pang Hai to fight me head-on. ”

How could Su Yi not know what Yuan Zheng was thinking in his heart, and said helplessly: "To be able to let Pang Hai fight you head-on, before the flat sky covers the sea, maybe you have no way, but after the flat sky covers the sea, you really want to fight Pang Hai head-on." ”

"Don't get a new blade and look like you want to cut someone. ”

"This is not good, it is easy to hurt the peace, and it will also bring you some unnecessary trouble. ”

Yuan Zheng kept it in mind, to be honest, after Yuan Zheng got the flat sky and covered the sea, he was indeed a little complacent, but he was not a swordsman, he was the master of the top of the clouds.

asked modestly: "From the perspective of senior brother, how should the battle of Jizhou be fought, Qi Guanzhou and I have also discussed this matter, but the answer that Qi Guanzhou gave me is ambiguous. ”

Su Yi pondered: "According to my speculation, Pang Hai will definitely fight you head-on, if you don't take the initiative to attack, he won't start a war, but after you take the initiative to attack, he will definitely fight you head-on." ”

"Mastering 500,000 elite soldiers, these 500,000 elite soldiers and fierce generals were originally to balance your father, and if you are restrained, it is equivalent to your father. ”

"Moreover, the available soldiers you have in Jizhou right now are 100,000 if you die, although you have an advantage in armament, this advantage will not be too big, don't underestimate Pang Hai's heritage in Jizhou. ”

"He still wants you to fight him head-on, so that he can prove that his arms can't twist his thighs. ”

"You let Wang Wei lead the recruits to the Jizhou battlefield to get military merits, it is feasible or not. ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "Please make it clear to my senior brother." ”

Su Yi said: "Although Wang Wei is not a famous general in the world, his ability is not much different from that of the famous generals in the world, and his talent in leading troops in battle will not be inferior to Lin Guang, that is, his martial arts cultivation is not as good as Lin Guang." ”

"It's a bit of a condescension to take new recruits to the battlefield. ”

"Fu Xuanhuang and Li Chen, didn't they share some military horses for Ma Ming?"

"In my opinion, let Wang Wei take Ma Ming and 15,000 recruits to gain some military merits on the battlefield where the risk is not too great. ”

"Wang Wei is a person who has come over, calm and heavy, and he can also grasp the balance when dealing with young people, and he can also use Wang Wei to balance the relationship between Ma Ming and the rest of the generals in the future, why not do it. ”

"Moreover, Wang Wei's talent is enough to provoke the big beam, no matter how much you cultivate Li Chen, Fu Xuanhuang, and others, in fact, people like Wang Wei and Xishu Shuangbi and Lin Guang are your current reliance and confidence. ”

If a veteran like Wang Wei is really allowed to lead the recruits to fight, it will chill the veteran's heart.

Even if Wang Wei didn't say anything, Qin Guanglu would definitely not be able to swallow this breath.

In the past, because he had not competed with Qin Guanglu, Wang Wei left the land of Xishu in a fit of anger.

The old general's emotions still have to be taken care of.

Yuan Zhengdao: "In this case, then I will go to Cangyun City to visit Wang Wei late at night and explain directly." ”

Su Yi said: "As long as you go, with Wang Wei's intelligence, you will know what you mean, the advantage of the old general is that he doesn't need you to say anything, he can understand in his heart, this advantage is not available to young generals." ”

"By the way, I picked the tea leaves from the depths of the Qinling Mountains and gave Wang Wei a sack to go over, and directly explained the origin of the tea. ”

"I can't bear to keep a capable person like Wang Wei without using it. ”

Yuan Zheng's eyes widened and asked: "You said that you want to give Old Man Xiao a sack, I thought there weren't so much, after a long time, your current tea storage capacity can really be calculated according to the sack?"

Tasting the tea leaves on the big red robe, he dared to measure it with a sack, Yuan Zheng didn't believe this fact.

Su Yi smiled proudly: "What do you think, senior brother, when did I frame you?"

Yuan Zheng had nothing to say, and said bluntly: "You might as well take a few more sacks and give them to Zhong Nan, Qin Guanglu to Lin Guang, and they also share a little." ”

Su Yi said: "I'll talk about this later, give Wang Wei a sack first, and the rest of the people will share it according to the situation." ”

Yuan Zheng nodded understandingly.
