The letters sent by Yangzhou Mansion to Kaiping Mansion are all winged and naturally fast, but those wonderful articles that have been hand-copied and passed on to Taiping Mansion and Chizhou Mansion by countless people are also like wings, in fact, they are not slow to spread among the people at all, all the way to the top of Wu Land.

Lord Song, the new prime minister of the Taiping Mansion, sat on the side of the stool with half of his body in arrears, his buttocks slightly stained, and looked cautiously at the Empress Dowager Wu who was reading the sacrificial text, and the growing anger on the face of the Empress Dowager Wu made his heart rise higher and higher.

When Empress Dowager Wu saw the end, her angry lips trembled: "Shameless!" Shameless! Despicable! Adulterer! Despicable and shameless! While scolding, he shook his hands and tore the sacrificial text hard, only the torn fingers were white, and even the long nails were broken, the emperor sat next to him, looking at his mother in horror, Prime Minister Song hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground and persuaded: "The Queen Mother is angry!" The Queen Mother doesn't have to be angry with such despicable and shameless people, take care of your health, and the Queen Mother will be angry, angry. Empress Dowager Wu gasped, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, opened her eyes, stretched out her hand and gently patted her frightened son, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, the emperor, we are not afraid of him." ”

Prime Minister Song looked at the timid and restless emperor, sighed secretly, turned his head to look at the Empress Dowager Wu and persuaded: "Empress Dowager, now that •••••• Huainan Road has been lost, if you regain ••••••" Empress Dowager Wu sighed: "Collect, we will die!" Song Chengxiang's heart was secretly relaxed, and he sighed carefully, Empress Dowager Wu lowered her head and looked at the fragments of the sacrificial text that were torn apart by herself on the ground, raised her head for a while, her expression was already stable, and looked at Song Chengxiang and ordered: "Ten miles back, Chizhou Mansion is also a smart person, Huainan Road is delayed, and if you fight again, you will die." Prime Minister Song hurriedly agreed: "The Queen Mother Shengming." ”

Empress Dowager Wu's face was gloomy, she was silent for a long time, and waved her hand: "Retire." ”

The Taiping Mansion army retreated ten miles, and the eldest prince put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sacrificial text that had been framed and hung on the wall, was silent for a long time, and ordered without looking back: "Retreat ten miles." ”

Taiping Mansion and Chizhou each retreated ten miles to confront the letter of the letter into Yangzhou, Su Zicheng breathed a long sigh of relief, compared with Taiping Mansion and Chizhou, years of war, Beiping, which has been extremely tired, needs to recuperate.

Su Zicheng burned the piece of paper, and came out next door to find Li Xiaoqi in a very happy mood, and now in the front yard of the other courtyard, he occupied the three main halls on the east side to deal with government affairs, and the west side was not far from the south wall, a dense flower and dense tree, flowing water and secluded place, one bright and two dark, the three fine houses that were originally repaired for Qing repair, were occupied by Li Xiaoqi as an office place, and these two places were separated by a moon door.

Li Xiaoqi came out, the two simply sat under the wide verandah, served tea with green oranges, and took all the girls and mothers-in-law to avoid it from afar, Su Zicheng smiled easily: "Taiping Mansion and Chizhou have ceased war, each retreat ten miles, truce and confront, okay, everyone can rest." ”

"Both of these are smart people." Li Xiaoqi drank tea and said with a smile, and the corners of Su Zicheng's mouth pulled down: "Just know the current affairs!" ”

"It's best to know the times, if you really have to fight to the death, this melee will hurt all three." Li Xiaoqi said with a smile, and Su Zicheng nodded approvingly: "We have been fighting for two or three years, and we are all very tired, and the battle on Huainan Road can be regarded as the end of the strong crossbow, but we are lucky!" Su Zicheng was very proud with his eyebrows, Li Xiaoqi was startled, stared at Su Zicheng and asked, "Really fake?" Didn't you say that the elite soldiers are strong, but the household has no money? ”

"Yes, they are all elite soldiers, but they are tired, there are not enough bows and arrows, there are not enough horses, there are many veterans and disabled, and the recruits have not kept up." Su Zicheng smiled nonchalantly, Li Xiaoqi looked at him blankly for a long time, took a deep breath and smiled: "You are gambling, just like me opening a salt field!" Su Zicheng stared at Li Xiaoqi for a moment with his eyes wide open, then leaned back in the rocking chair and laughed.

Li Xiaoqi sipped his tea, looked at the golden ginkgo biloba leaves in the yard blown down by a gust of wind, and was out of his mind for a while, before turning his head to look at Su Zicheng and said with a smile: "You have to urge Yu Yuanshan, it's best to arrive before we leave, there are some things, it's best to explain him in person, since those two places are smart people who know the current affairs, maybe they are willing to let go of the opening and do business with us, if this thing can be done, if it can be ••••••" Li Xiaoqi bent his eyes and smiled like a flower, under the soft light and shadow of the eaves corridor, Li Xiaoyi's smile seemed to glow, Directly dyed out of the warmth and joy of the hospital, Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyi, who was wearing an apricot yellow long gauze dress and smiling like a lotus flower blooming in the morning, and he didn't know where he was for a while.

The war in Wudi was temporarily suspended, Su Zicheng dispatched the Beiping Army to rest and recuperate everywhere, and was busy for more than ten days, Li Xiaoqi was idle, and was rushing to eat all kinds of fresh fruits after the autumn, and Lu Feng and Liu Xiuyun often got up in the middle of the night to visit the vegetable market, oil and grain market, melon and fruit market, fish market and other cities, looking for the old knowledge of the previous life and all kinds of delicacies that they didn't know at all, leaving early and returning late, and he was busier than Su Zicheng for a while.

In the evening, Li Xiaoqi asked people to put red clay stoves and other things in the water pavilion in the middle of the lake, and together with Lu Feng and Liu Xiuyun, they lay leisurely on the water platform facing the lotus flowers in front of the water pavilion, drinking tea and eating melon seeds and talking.

Su Zicheng finally finished his work, Liu Xiuyun hurriedly stood up to salute, Li Xiaoqi put down the melon seeds in his hand, got up half-straight, and hurriedly ordered to move another rocking chair, Lu Feng reluctantly stood up, reluctantly moved a little to the side, and squeezed out the space of the rocking chair.

The four of them sat down again, Li Xiaoqi handed the melon seeds to Su Zicheng, Lu Feng bit the melon seeds and spit out the shell, looked at Su Zicheng with interest, Su Zicheng spread his hands, took a melon seed out, turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi who was quickly spitting out the melon seed shell, raised it and looked at Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoqi finished eating the melon seeds in his hand, clapped his hands, took a melon seed from Su Zicheng's palm and smiled: "You are good at kung fu, you can eat like this." Li Xiaoqi said, pinched the melon seeds with two fingers, took the melon seeds and threw them in his mouth, and motioned to Su Zicheng to try, Su Zicheng held the melon seeds in his hand, thought about it, poured the melon seeds on his clothes, and took a melon seed out, with two fingers slightly forced, the melon seeds instantly shattered into powder.

Li Xiaoqi bent over with a smile, but pointed at Liu Xiuyun with his finger, Liu Xiuyun smiled honestly: "I have heavy hands, and Uncle Xiao is useless." Su Zicheng's face was slightly red, he took another one, slowly tried to force the melon seeds with two fingers, pinched the melon seeds, took the melon seeds out, breathed a sigh of relief, and held the melon seeds to show Li Xiaomi, Li Xiaoyi smiled and grabbed another handful of melon seeds, and while knocking fast, he motioned for him to eat by himself.

The corners of Lu Feng's mouth turned down and looked at Su Zicheng, but he didn't say anything to stab him, recently this little uncle looks like a little uncle, and even the silver in the tent room is withdrawn by him, so he doesn't want to embarrass him too much.

Su Zicheng tried a few times, found the right strength, the melon seeds were pinched very neatly, the shell of the melon seeds split in half, fell to the ground, one by one like flowers, Li Xiaoqi looked at it for a moment, and suddenly threw the melon seeds and shouted: "Green orange!" Go get that bag of fried pine nuts! Just go! ”

The little girl quickly took the pine nuts over, and Li Xiaoqi came to Su Zicheng with the pine nut bag and said with a smile: "Your kung fu is so good, help me pinch these, don't pinch them all, it's best to open them half!" Lu Feng glared at Su Zicheng, Liu Xiuyun looked at Li Xiaoqi speechlessly, this pack of pine nuts, Li Xiaoqi sent it to Lu Feng first, how could Lu Feng have the patience to pinch this one by one, pinched thirty or fifty, and found an excuse to escape, she didn't want to take it, but she really didn't have the patience to pinch this, so she simply crushed more than a dozen in one go, so Li Xiaoqi had no choice but to give up.

Su Zicheng looked at a pack of pine nuts that were four or five catties long, picked up one, and pinched his mouth to show Li Xiaoqi: "That's it?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! That's it, it's all pinched like this, your kung fu is so good, no wonder Xiuyun always praises you for your strength and precision! Li Xiaoqi was overjoyed, and praised enthusiastically, Su Zicheng pinched two or three more, beckoned to Qingcheng and ordered: "Take this, and this bag of pine nuts, send it to Dongping, let him find a few carefully, knead all this bag of pine nuts like this, and pinch it before dinner and send it in." Qingcheng took the pinched pine nuts and pine nut bags, looked at Li Xiaoyi, and retreated to find Dongping, Li Xiaoyi's eyes blinked seven or eight times in a row, raised his hand and pressed his forehead, unable to speak, in the end, he was the one in the top position.

Lu Feng staggered his teeth and looked at Su Zicheng sullenly, Liu Xiuyun squinted his little eyes, grabbed the melon seeds and knocked them up again, Li Xiaoqi turned his head to look at Haitang and ordered: "Boil some boiling water, brew some lotus root powder and eat." ”

Not long after, the begonias rushed the lotus root powder and sent it up one by one, Li Xiaoqi took a bite of the broken peach kernels and other things sprinkled on the lotus root powder, tasted the product, looked at the begonia and smiled: "It's stronger than the last time, but it's still not good." ”

"Well, the peach kernel is still a little tough, and, Xiao Wu, I don't think it's good to put this raisin in, or adjust two kinds of ingredients••••••" Haitang simply took all kinds of things that had been researched, and Lu Feng came over, and Li Xiaoqi and Haitang dialed various colors, discussing which one is best with this lotus root powder.

Liu Xiuyun didn't understand the two of them, and she couldn't figure out how to eat it? Just drank a bowl, pouted, let the little girl make another bowl for herself, and sprinkled a thick layer of seasoning on herself, taking care of the sweetness of her own food.

Su Zicheng stretched out his head but couldn't interject, he had never paid attention to these things, even this lotus root powder, whether it was the first time he ate it, he couldn't remember clearly.

The three of them discussed a few plans warmly, Haitang wrote them down one by one and prepared to go back to try, Li Xiaoqi exhaled with satisfaction, turned his head and saw Su Zicheng with an uncomfortable face, his mind turned slightly, and he beckoned Liuyun to come over and ordered: "Bring Xiaomei over and show it to the prince." ”
