Silly Da smiled shyly, and said: "The small plate is not as big as a palm, and I have eaten a lot, so I don't dare to take more, for fear of being laughed at." Seeing that Chen Nian refused to eat any more, he carefully pinched the piece of pastry into his mouth, and the expression on his face was happy and enjoyable.

The sorrow, irritability and confusion in Chen Nian's heart suddenly dispersed most of a sudden, and he only stood there smiling and looking stupid, and when he really didn't have an aftertaste in his mouth, he smiled and said: "Go back quickly, it's too late, and you're going to miss the meal." ”

As soon as the stupid big man heard this, he immediately got up, threw off his big stride and ran forward, turning back and urging Chen Nian as he walked: "Hurry up, hurry up,"

Neither of them rode horses, and although they walked quickly, it was already time to hold the lantern when they arrived at the castle guard's mansion. Wen Daya was waiting for the two of them to eat, watching the two of them enter the door, busy beckoning the soldiers to eat. In a few moments, several large pots of brown rice porridge were served on the table.

This year, Hebei and Shandong prefectures have been hit by drought, and many counties have even lost their harvests, Xue Shengxian himself can't take care of it, and the food he can send to Chen Nian is even more limited. Wen Daya had no food in his hand, so he naturally panicked, and he had already begun to calculate and eat food, whether it was the village soldiers or these people, as long as they didn't do physical work, they would be dry every day. The porridge in the morning can still stop some hunger, and when it comes to this meal in the evening, the porridge will "croak" when scooped up, and you can only earn a full water.

The stupid big belly was already very hungry, and a bowl of porridge was under the water, but he felt that his stomach was even emptier, and he couldn't help complaining: "Brother Wen, this gruel is really getting thinner and thinner, grab a handful of rice and boil half a pot of porridge, you just tell us to drink cold water directly, and you can save firewood,"

Wen Daya didn't want a stupid person like Dumb to say such a thing, and he was almost choked. He eats this for everyone all day long, and his heart is already empty, and he is stupid to talk about him like this, which makes him a little annoyed and angry, so he glared and said: "What so much nonsense, I can't stop your mouth when eating, I see that you are still not hungry, you go out to take a look, there are more people who can't even drink this,"

Silly Da has been following Wen Daya since he was a child, he was very afraid of him, and he scolded him so much, he was immediately honest, he didn't dare to speak anymore, and hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank gruel.

Chen Nian looked at the porridge that could almost show the figure of a person for a while, slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table with a "snap", and said hatefully: "Rob, rob, there can't be people with big fish and meat, some people have to wait to starve to death,"

These people in the house are all from mountain bandits, and when they heard this, their eyes lit up, and someone immediately responded: "Big boss, where do you go, our brothers will follow you,"

Hebei and Shandong prefectures are in drought, and it is not easy to grab, and Xiangzhou in the west is hilly and undulating, which is not rich, and it is not possible to grab anything. Chen Nian pondered for a moment and said: "It's still south, I heard that the big families in Jiangnan have food that can be eaten for several years, so let's go and ask them for some emergency first." ”

She thought about it for a while, so she instructed Lu Rongfeng: "Uncle Lu, you ran across the south of the Yangtze River, you are more familiar with that side, you go with me, let's pick a thousand strong people to come out and pretend to be a homeless person to cross the river." ”

Lu Rongfeng nodded in response, "Okay." ”

Chen Nian said again: "I'll go to Uncle Jiang and ask them to try to get together some more boats for us to use." ”

This attack on Yiping, several major cottages in South Taihang also participated, among which Qingfeng Village had the most people and horses, and Jiang Yingchen, the current owner of Qingfeng Village, personally brought people to help, and did not leave after breaking the city, leaving to listen to the order of Juyi Village.

As soon as they heard that they were going to Jiangnan to grab grain, everyone was a little excited, and they were all gearing up, only Wen Daya was a little hesitant, and asked Chen Nian: "Big boss, we don't have many soldiers in hand, you take people with you again, what if the He family comes to attack Yiping,"

Chen Nian winked at him and said with a smile: "The city is dead, and the people are alive." If you can keep it, you can keep it, and if you can't keep it, you can run, no one cares about our life or death, and we don't need to worry about who gets the world, and who should be in the hands of him. The He family came to attack Yiping, so you took everyone to the south and gave Yiping to them,"

At the beginning, she didn't actually think about occupying Yiping for a long time, but she only wanted those displaced people trapped in the mountains to cross the river from here.

Wen Daya gritted his back molars and thought for a moment, slapped his thigh hard, and replied loudly: "Okay,"

Chen Nian picked up his bowl of porridge soup, drank it all, stood up and assigned tasks to everyone, and said: "The most important thing in this matter is to hide it from people, and you must not leak the slightest rumor, and you must not mention half a word when you leave this house." Who can't control his mouth and spoil my business, don't blame me Xie Chennian turned his face and didn't recognize people. ”

She is mostly kind on weekdays, but her words are very cold and harsh, everyone knows her temper, and she is busy: "Don't worry, the big boss." ”

Having said that, on the second day, Feng Junyang sent someone to invite Chen Nian, and when they met, he asked, "You want to cross the river to grab grain,"

Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that there must still be his eyeliner around him, and he didn't feel annoyed in his heart, so he didn't answer his words, but asked first: "Lord Wang, I would like to ask you something, how do you manage these people around you, how can you clean up all the spies,"

Feng Junyang smiled faintly when he heard this, and said: "It's very simple, first, use people who can control it; Second, it is better to kill by mistake than to be missed. ”

Chen Nian thought about this, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "It's still simple, I can't do any of them." ”

Feng Junyang asked her, "You still have that Cui Xi?"

"What should I do if I don't keep it," Chen Nian asked him rhetorically, and she was also a little helpless, she had said before that Jiang Yingchen was soft-hearted and misunderstood, but when it was her turn, she didn't want to, but she generally couldn't do it. "He's too familiar with what happened in my village to let go. But if I kill him, I can't bear it, after all, I was a brother who was friends in life and death. Besides, although he betrayed me, I owe him a debt to him. ”

Feng Junyang knew that she was kind-hearted, and she had always valued love and righteousness, so she would not be able to kill Cui Xi ruthlessly, so she couldn't help but glance at her and said in a low voice: "You are soft on everyone, but you are me, you can insert a knife, and you can say cruel words, but I am afraid that I will not be angry, and I will never feel sorry for me." ”

Although he complained, his tone was low and intimate, like a lover's **. Chen Nian was speechless when he heard it, and asked him for a while: "Lord Feng, can you speak seriously, you are a big man who is pretending to be coquettish and selling idiots, don't you feel embarrassed?"

She asked a serious question, and her words were so ugly that Feng Junyang's face was a little unbearable. If it was before, he promised to punish her, but now her martial arts skills are higher than him, and he can't get cheap when he moves, so he can only endure this breath for the time being, smile and shake his head, and said softly: "I don't know." ”

Chen Nian saw that this person's face was so thick-skinned, and he couldn't do anything about him for a while, so he had to get up and say in line with the principle that he couldn't afford to hide: "If the prince doesn't have anything important, I'll go back first, there are still many affairs in the city that I need to deal with, and I can't delay." ”

Feng Junyang stopped her, and then said, "You can't go to Jiangnan to grab grain." ”

Seeing that he was finally willing to get down to business, Chen Nian sat back in his chair and asked him, "Why?"

Feng Junyang replied: "It is under my rule, it is easy to stabilize, and there must be no more bandits and disturb the people's hearts,"

Chen Nian explained: "I will restrain my subordinates, not disturb the common people, just find those squires to scare them, and borrow the old grain they have saved in the past years to use it first, that is, to repay them in the future, just to cope with the current difficulties." ”

Feng Junyang just shook his head and said lightly: "No, those people can't move." Many of their children are officials, and their relationship with each other is complicated, and if you provoke them, you will cause me trouble. ”

Chen Nian couldn't help but ask him: "You are not willing to settle the displaced people, and you don't allow me to go over to grab food, is it possible that these people who come with me will starve to death,"

Feng Jun said: "I said that if you want to achieve great things, you can't be soft-hearted. ”

Chen Nian got up angrily and said in a cold voice: "Feng Junyang, I didn't think about making a big deal, you don't use this to pressure me." If you are not afraid of losing the hearts of the people in Jiangbei, you can drive them away and kill them cleanly,"

Seeing that she was angry, Feng Junyang had to soften his attitude, sighed, and said: "Chen Nian, I have mobilized more than 100,000 troops in Jiangnan, and I am about to cross the river to the north. At this time, if you bring someone over, it will give me bad things. ”

Chen Nian was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Your army can already go north,"

"Soon." Feng Junyang raised his eyebrows slightly, slightly colored.

Chen Nian was puzzled again, and asked him: "Since the army has been gathered, why are you afraid that the He family will come to seize Yiping, He Ze has all the soldiers and horses in his hands and does not have 100,000, don't say that he doesn't dare to come to capture Yiping, even if he comes, he can't take it,"

Feng Junyang chuckled when he heard this, and said, "I'm not afraid of him coming now, but I'm afraid that he won't come." I told him to come and go back this time, and completely cut off one of He Zhen's arms,"

Chen Nian was even more confused when she heard it, she felt that she was not stupid, but when she came to Feng Junyang, she was always dizzy by him, so she had to say: "Feng Junyang, I am really confused by you, can you say it more clearly,"

Her brows frowned slightly, her always clear eyes were covered with a hint of confusion, and her delicate and moist lips were gently pursed, revealing the small and lovely pear vortex at the corner of her lips. Feng Junyang was itchy to see it, and he just wanted to come over and kiss him. He secretly settled his mind, so that he could take his eyes off her face, make a casual appearance, and only said lightly: "I wanted to tell you yesterday that you ran away and refused to listen, what can I do?"
