Wang Xiaolai thought about it, lowered his head and pondered, then nodded, and said, "It's enough." โ
The empress snorted and said, "By the way, don't you know Qiang language?" โ
Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Ah, what's wrong?" โ
The empress said, "I asked Xun to help you." โ
"Xun Rang? Who? โ
"It's the document from the Ministry of Rites before, who understands Qiang language."
Wang Xiaolai suddenly realized: "It's done." โ

Coming out of the palace, Wang Xiaolai first returned to Foxconn and met with his subordinates, and then, leading Shu Jiuchai and Xian Jingyu, the three of them went to Echo Valley.
After staying in Echo Valley for a full day, Wang Xiaolai came back, but Shu Jiuchai did not come back.
After coming back, Wang Xiaolai did not go to the palace, but came directly to the backyard of his home Foxconn.
Wang Xiao, who hurried back all the way, came home and went straight to the study, and then closed the door.
In the middle, seeing Wang Xiaolai, he was dressed in mud and red incense and wanted to call him to let him wash his body, but Wang Xiaolai also refused.
Instead, he called Xian Jingyu and asked him to go to the post house and the Ministry of Rites.
Xian Jingyu went alone, and when he came back, he became three people.
Yu Zhutian and Xun Rang were all brought back by him.
Yu Zhitian had already been instructed by the empress, so when he came, he also brought a map of the western border.
As for Xun Rang, he also knew what the empress was doing when he asked him to come, and he didn't bring anything empty-handed, so he followed.
Bringing the person over, Xian Jingyu bowed deeply to Wang Xiaolai and said, "My lord, the person has come." โ
Wang Xiaolai snorted and said, "Jingyu, you go and get busy first, I'll call you if you have something." โ
Xian Jingyu agreed, turned around and walked out of the study, and when he went out, he closed the door with his hand.
However, he did not go away, but stood at the door of the room like a god.
Wang Xiaolai raised his head at this time, looked at Yu and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, the prince is a distinguished guest, it stands to reason that he shouldn't entertain you in such a humble place, it's just that my general's mansion has not been built, and there are rude places, please bear with me." โ
Xun rang on the side for a moment, and said that he had heard a lot of General Wang's deeds, and the most familiar one was the general's character, which was informal, that is, at best, you said that he was lawless, and you underestimated him.
But today, how do you talk and do things, are you unusually decent?
Thinking like this in my heart, I am inevitably a little stunned.
Wang Xiaolai coughed and said, "Xun Wenwen, what's wrong with you?" โ
Xun Rang turned his senses when he heard the sound, coughed twice, and then hurriedly translated the words just now, but his expression was a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Wang Xiaolai didn't care about this.
Yu nodded after listening to the translator's words, and on the way here, he also saw the general's mansion under construction next to Wang Xiaolai's Foxconn shop, so he didn't take it to heart, besides, he is not that calculating.
Walking up with the map, Yu spread it out, and introduced it to Wang Xiaolai.
With Xun Rang as a translator, if Wang Xiaolai has anything he doesn't understand or can't understand, he will stop and ask a few more times, and when he is familiar with it, he will nod his head.
The three of them stayed in the study for nearly fourteen hours, and in the middle, only Hongxiang sent tea and dinner four or five times, and other than that, no outsiders ever came in.
Finally, after saying everything that should be said, Wang Xiaolai also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Xian Jingyu to come in and send Yu Qian away, and then sat on the Taishi chair alone and rubbed the corners of his eyebrows.
On the side, Xun Rang hugged his fists and said: "General, if there is nothing to do, then I will leave first." โ
Wang Xiaolai waved his hand: "Don't do it first." โ
Xun Rang raised his head and paused for a moment.
Wang Xiaolai said: "Xun book." โ
"General, what do you command?" Xun Rang stopped and asked.
Wang Xiaolai glanced at Xun Rang up and down, and suddenly asked, "I don't know how Xun paperwork is?" Busy? โ
Wang Xiaolai asked how much Xun Rang was embarrassed, what's the matter? He is in the Ministry of Rites, and his daily work is to sort out some files and records, which is not busy, and it is also a job that can be done by everyone.
Now that Wang Xiaolai asked like this, Xun Rang didn't know how to answer, and for a long time, he said vaguely: "Well, it's okay, it's okay." โ
Wang Xiaolai is a person, that is a person who knows how to calculate and take advantage of a small advantage from birth, this kind of person, generally has poisonous eyes, at least, compared with ordinary people, it is still okay.
As far as Xun Rang's performance is concerned, Wang Xiaolai doesn't know what he is thinking.
So, Wang Xiaolai smiled: "Don't misunderstand Xun Wen, General Ben thought about asking His Majesty to transfer the clerk to Ben General's side to do things, but I don't know what the clerk wants?" โ
Wang Xiaolai is not only a general, but also a newly promoted martial marquis of Suiyang.
But as far as his own title is concerned, Wang Xiaolai has never called Ben Hou, because he feels that only Lu Gongyou is worthy of the position of Wuhou, and he is just a false name.
Xun Rang was stunned when he heard this, and followed closely, ecstatic.
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Wang Xiaolai tremblingly: "General, what you said is true?" โ
Wang Xiaolai nodded.
Asking the empress to let Xun come to his side was not Wang Xiaolai's whim, and at the same time, it was not to dig the empress's wall roots.
The reason why he did this was because if Wang Xiaolai went to the west, there was no one around him who understood the language, and he was very restrained when he started to do things.
Moreover, in the past ten hours, more time than a day and a night to get along, Wang Xiaolai also discovered that Xun Rang's brain is not as brainless as that of ordinary sour literati, and when thinking about problems, he also has the unique active thoughts of young people.
Wang Xiaolai has countless fierce generals, Shen Xiping, Ning Xi, etc., but there is only one person who can make ideas with him.
He saw that Xun Rang's foundation was good, and it could be used to cultivate a pillar of the court, before the empress always said that there was a scarcity of talents in the court, isn't this one, with a little support, you can be on your own, Wang Xiaolai is a little puzzled, how can such a talent enter the Ministry of Rites to do paperwork?
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaolai raised his head, and then Xun Rang's words said: "Why did Ben lie to you?" You go back and say hello to Lao Sun, and I'll tell Your Majesty that you will go with me on this expedition. โ
Lao Sun refers to Sun Yuanlang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, before, Wang Xiaolai and Sun Yuanlang had a friendship and acquaintance.
When Xun Rang heard this, he knelt on the ground and said excitedly: "Below, thank you General." โ
It's no wonder that Xun Rang has such a performance, you know, you want to get out of the court, without the support of nobles, you have to accumulate twenty or thirty years of qualifications, now it's okay, with such a noble person as Wang Xiaolai, you are equivalent to saving decades of struggle time.
Looking at Xun Rang, who looked excited, Wang Xiaolai waved his hand: "Okay, go back and prepare to prepare, the day after tomorrow, go out with the army." โ
Xun Rang nodded violently.
After the others left, Wang Xiaolai stretched his waist for a long time, and whispered, fourteen hours of sleeplessness made him feel sore, and as soon as he moved, he crackled all over.
Hongxiang happened to walk in with tea, and when she saw Wang Xiaolai sitting there, she walked over to Wang Xiaolai's back, stretched out her hands to pinch his shoulders and beat his back.
Wang Xiaolai smiled when he saw this, and asked, "Sister, why is our yard so quiet?" โ
Hongxiang didn't understand what Wang Xiao meant.
Wang Xiaolai smiled and said: "It stands to reason that there are Lao Yu and Lao Jian Xian, even if they don't pinch it, they will quarrel, they shouldn't be." โ
At the mention of Li Baiyi, Hongxiang was a little unhappy and turned her head.
Wang Xiao came to see it, and said in his heart that it seemed that Hongxiang still didn't accept his father in his heart.
Not happy or unhappy, but Hongxiang still said honestly: "Mr. Yu seems to have gone back, that's why the yard is so quiet." โ
Wang Xiaolai was stunned when he heard this: "Go back?" When? Wasn't he still there when I came back last year? โ
Hongxiang said: "I left last night, childe, you were discussing a big matter at that time, and Hongxiang didn't dare to alarm you." โ
Wang Xiaolai sighed: "Forget it, let's go, otherwise, let him stay in Daxing City, it will only cause more trouble." โ
As he spoke, Wang Xiaolai's eyes rolled and asked Hongxiang, "What about the old sword immortal?" โ
Speaking of Li Baiyi, Hongxiang's face was a little unpleasant, but she still said: "He hasn't left yet, and he's still staying in the backyard." โ
"It's just right, I have something to do with the old sword fairy, sister, please go and invite the old sword fairy, is it okay?" Wang Xiaolai asked softly.
