Chapter 124: The King's Heart Works

The years are quiet, and nothing is a snake.

The wall is cloudy, time flows silently, and it is the beginning of September in a blink of an eye.

Everything is complicated, Mei Langjun waits calmly, and after sending away the Lu brothers and sisters who came from thousands of miles, the green ox cries endlessly, the ox cart comes out in all directions, and the moon shirt and green crown float in Shanyin City.

A few days ago, Li Que and Xiao's steward were in contact with Xiao Ran, and Liu Nong naturally came to thank him in person, and sent two sets of glass tea sets, ink sets, and wine sets.

There is a set of magnolia wine is the most precious, a pot of eight, the color is jade white, the sun is attached to it, such as crystal clear, it is rare to buy a thousand gold. Xiao Ran looked extremely happy, groping for the smooth and jade-like wine honor, and couldn't put it down. Ten thousand flowers and cherry blossoms are red, but Xiao Ran only loves Qiulan in his life, and when he was elegant in the mid-autumn of Lanting, he once sang a song to show his ambition. Things are secondary, and the most commendable thing is Liu Nong's mellow heart towards friends, how can he not like it.

When Liu Nong learned that the Xiao family also had a liquor store in Lanling, he ordered Li Xuan to negotiate with the Xiao family's steward, and in the future, the sales of Huating bamboo leaf green in Lanling County would be sold by the Xiao family.

Xiao Ran is even more happy, in recent years, Huating bamboo leaves are well-known in Jiangzuo. But where the families gather elegantly, if there is no bamboo leaf green Zuoxing to help, the poetry and aria will be much more discolored. The yield of Huating Liu's bamboo leaf green has been low, because most of them only smell its fragrance and do not know its taste. The Lanling Xiao clan naturally does not fancy these small profits, and the person who is trying to do it is no more than fame.

At that moment, Xiao Ran gave back 20 pack horses to Liu Nong, and ordered the steward to reach an agreement with Li Qi that if the Liu family of Huating needed to buy another pack horse in the future, Xiao would choose to sell it.

Liu Nong thanked him happily, and the retired war horses are also excellent, good, and poor, and the superior pack horses may not be much worse than ordinary war horses, thinking: 'The Great Wall of Qin is not a day's work.' One day, the cavalry will be in ......'

Coming out of Xiao Ran's Red Mansion, the master and servant both looked happy.

The autumn wind rolls up the fallen leaves and blows in, and the wheels of the car are broken and the ground is golden. Li Xun on the wheel was smiling, and Laifu waved a long whip briskly, and the sound of the whip came into the alley.

Liu Nong sat peacefully in the car. Smelling the faint smell of green wood in the autumn breeze outside the curtain, the corners of his mouth rose slightly and his cheeks wrinkled slightly. After crossing to the south, Xie Yuanxiao, the king of the four major gates, was like Chunlan and Qiuju, and they were good at winning.

Langya Wang's family has Wang Dao and Wang Dun to control Jiangdong Wenwu, and a "Book of Jin" has three percent of the wind and flow of the Wang family, and takes the route of the same nobility as the emperor: Wang Dun has a heart to do the opposite, if it is successful, the Wang family will be extremely expensive; And Wang Dao pursues the 'righteous and solid monarchs', and he is devoted to Sima's family. Yes, even if Wang Dun's rebellion fails. The Wang family can also retreat and seek to defend it, so as not to die as soon as it declines.

Chenjun Xie is different, at the beginning, Wen did not take charge of the dynasty, did not build an army, and only cared about teaching his children and nephews, accumulated thick and thin, and was out of control. Throughout the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The elite children of the Xie family are endless, if you talk about grace. The Xie family is more prosperous than the Wang family. If it weren't for the five-bucket rice rebellion decades later, the Xie family would be like an evergreen tree, welcoming a new look in the morning.

Chenjun Yuan's family advocates humility and purity, does not seek to be prominent among the princes, and does not see the sword light and sword, as if the Taoist does nothing. Correct. Inaction is not inaction, the east corner is lost, and the mulberry elm is gained, although the Yuan family is stored but not exposed, the foundation is the most secure. It is based on the marriage and friendship of the Wang family and the Xie family and the Yuan family. When he dies in the future, he has Yuan to rely on. Therefore, Yuan's Langjun married all famous ladies, and Yuan's girls married all wealthy heroes. And this move, just like the old tree living behind the new forest, let you pass by like a thousand winds, and eventually blow on my branches.

The Lanling Xiao clan is located at the end of Wang Xie Yuan Xiao, and its official position and reputation are the most inconspicuous, but there are many clansmen and have been in business for generations, so it is actually the richest clan among the four major lords. In the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Xiao family was based on a county in Lanling, and was diligent in business affairs, seemingly attached to the Wang family, but in fact it developed itself, and in just a few decades, the savings were like a mountain abyss. Forbearance and not hair, one shot won the world, and established the two dynasties of Qi and Liang.

Thousand-year-old families all have the method of self-improvement and self-protection, but the last one has the greatest success! Thinking about it, Liu Nong's face smiled even more, he could have some dealings with the Lanling Xiao family, even if it was just in business, but the trickle was long, trickling endlessly, today is a commercial purchase of pack horses, and it may not be a war horse in the future, Xu Xing and Xu Xing, Xu Xu and the picture......

"Appeal ......"

At this time, outside the curtain "crunch! With a sound, the wheels stopped, and the ox cart had arrived at Ji's Zhuangyuan.

Liu Nong lifted the curtain and walked out, looked at the courtyard of Ji's village on the white wall and Zhumen, smiled slightly, waved his sleeves inside, met Ji Zhan, and borrowed the last ten volumes of "Yi Taiji".

Ji Zhan is very idle and in a good mood today, presumably it is a matter of Jiankang Liu Kui and Diao Xie, and several parties have discussed each other and have achieved results.

Liu Nong didn't listen, and wanted to leave after borrowing the book, but Ji Zhan didn't allow it, and proposed to deduce the military situation again.

In two consecutive rounds, Ji Zhan's Jiangdong armies were defeated by Liu Nong's Yuzhang army, and when Ji Zhan was happy and his face was slightly depressed, Liu Nong put forward a hypothesis to add a controllable and strong army.

Ji Zhan made a little planning and then placed another army, and the two of them deduced again, but they didn't know that with this strong army in hand, there were many changes in the sudden, and Yuzhang's army no longer dared to go deep into Jiankang alone.

Along both sides of the river, compete to fight.

In the end, although the Jiangdong armies were still defeated by the Yuzhang army, they made Ji Zhan feel very relieved, and he smiled with his silver beard.

Ji Zhan said with a smile: "The strength of the army is the water potential, adding a fractal will increase the momentum by a few more, which is really the way to infinite changes!" However, for the sake of the mountain, after all, it will fall short, can Zhan Zhen have another way to make up for it? ”

What does it do? What else is there to do? Liu Nong smiled faintly, put the thin bamboo in his hand lightly, waved his hand and smiled: "The sage has a saying: forty is not confused, fifty knows the destiny of heaven, and sixty is obedient." Life is less than 100, if you don't spare your life to nourish your nature, how many people are there in 60? ”

"Life is less than 100, if you don't spare your life to nourish your nature, how many people in 60 ......"

Ji Zhan squinted his eyes, slowly stroked the silver beard on his chest, chewed Liu Nong's words carefully, and didn't know what to think, his eyes suddenly brightened, and then looked at Liu Nong deeply, without saying a word. Less leaning, laughing. The laughter was so hearty that it reverberated with reverberation.

Liu Nong smiled and said nothing, knowing each other.

At that time, the lifespan of a family or a commoner was short, and more than sixty was scarce, and it was even rarer to live for seventy years like Ji Zhan. And Wang Dun is already more than fifty years old, and he is extremely indulgent, and there are hundreds of singers in the military government alone, and he is bent on rebelling, and his thoughts must be irritable and restless. Nature is not in line with the way of self-cultivation. How many years will he live? As long as the Jin family is not defeated too badly, those families who are on the sidelines will inevitably move. Under the rise of one and the other, it is very possible to drag Wang Dun to death.

According to Liu Nong's knowledge, when Wang Dun rebelled for the first time, he killed Diao Xie and Liu Kui in the name of 'Qingjun's side'. Along the Yangtze River, he sent troops to Jiankang, wanting to replace Sima Shi, but due to the fierce opposition of the courtiers, he did not make the trip, so he imprisoned Sima Rui until death. The second time of the rebellion, because Ji Zhan introduced Xi Jian's Yanzhou army, Xi Jian took the initiative to attack and Wang Dun to fight unstoppable, and in an instant, many watchers saw the situation and raised troops to support Emperor Sima Shao of the Ming Dynasty, and finally dragged Wang Dun to death.

The more Ji Zhan thought about it, the more excited he became. Holding a silver beard and wandering around the long case, his eyes are bright and dark, and his lips are open and closed without sound. Liu Nong knew what he was thinking, and it was inconvenient to say more at this time, so he waved his hands deeply and said goodbye and left.

As soon as he left, Ji Zhan stopped, and his eyes disappeared outside the door with the moon shirt. But he asked, "Boren, what do you think is this?" ”

Zhou Yi turned out from behind the screen. Du Zhi Ji Zhan's side, looked outside the door and said with a smile: "Huating Meihe Liu Zhanzhen, it's good, it's good!" In time, it will be a pillar of talent! ”

Ji Zhan nodded and said, "Well, young and bloody." is not confused or sleepy, it is indeed a good talent. However, where can such a strong army be found? As he spoke, Wei Ran let out a long sigh and thought, 'The situation is delicate now. If the army is built with great fanfare, I am afraid that it has not yet been built, and Wang Dunchai will wave the army down, how can he resist? Moreover, this move will inevitably touch the Maison......

The Eastern Jin Dynasty is not the same as other dynasties, but the northland family co-exists, and when the northland family crosses to the south, it not only brings a large number of talents but also follows countless tribes, and the dignified emperor has no military power in hand! Throughout the Eastern Jin Dynasty, several Northern Expeditions and several rebellions were fought by the private army of the family. The military government, the army is in the government, and the government is in the army, this is the principle.

Zhou Yi also frowned, and said: "Building the army is a major matter, and you must not be in a hurry, even if you want to build it, you need to be justified." Otherwise, you and I will probably become sinners of the Jin family! ”

"However, it is also ......" Ji Zhan thought so, and abandoned the way of building the army in his mind and found another way.

In the leafless road, the wheels are rolling.

Liu Nong was also thinking about the establishment of the army in the car, and his eyes were open and closed like stars falling into the lake.

During the rebellion between Empress Jia and the Eight Kings, the reason why the Qing Dynasty was prosperous, and the families would rather indulge in the mountains and wilderness, drunk and die on the way home, rather than serve the court, seemingly indifferent to fame and fortune, but in fact they were deeply afraid: today the high-crowned jade belt is still standing in the court, and tomorrow it will be beheaded in the wilderness of the city. Therefore, after the Jin family crossed to the south, after the family took power, although there was no clear law, the secret rule has been achieved: imperial power, not military power! Military power is in the hands of the military and civilian assassins of the various states.

At this time, the families are free, honest and open-minded, because they no longer have to fear sudden death and be devoured by wild dogs. Even the Beifu Army, which was famous all over the world in the future, was also under the name of the Xie family.

Liu Nong naturally did not dare to challenge the general trend, and whoever dared to go against the grain would definitely be crushed and torn apart. Therefore, he only dared to say to Ji Zhan: Suppose there is a strong army, guide Ji Zhan to think about it himself, so as to introduce Xi Jian. And Xi Jian is bound to move his army into Jiangdong, this move can easily sell Ji Zhan's love, why not?

Moreover, Liu Nong's three strategies to Xie Pei, including the establishment of a separate army, were to implement the Beifu army in advance. This move will definitely be feasible, because in the future, Xi Jian and the Yanzhou army will be stationed in Jiangdong, and the family is afraid that it will not be able to lose like the Wang family, so in order to balance the way, it is urgent to build another army to counter the Yanzhou army, and Huan Wen is because of this.

And Huan Wen, Liu Nong shook his head, thinking: "If I am too late, why don't I let Xie ...... If the Xie clan builds an army, it must be led by Xie Yi or Xie Shang. Xie Yi is bent on going north, very good......

In the east of the city, there is an alley named Peach Blossom.

There are no peach blossoms in Peach Blossom Lane, passing through the alley, and it takes half a mile to see a sea of rotten gold. In late autumn, the peach blossoms have long since withered, and now the peach leaves are rotten and golden.

In the depths of this peach forest, there is a small village, which is the Wang's guest house, which is only built for the peach blossoms in March. Although the courtyard is not large, it is scattered, and the sharp corner Zhu Pavilion is faintly visible floating between the peach forests. The ox cart slowly moved through the dirt road, crushing the broken leaves and popping, and suddenly heard the birds chirping outside the curtain, which suddenly added a little vitality to this thick autumn.

Zhang Mai waited at the crossing, squatting at his feet with the snow-white puppy, and the eyes of one person and one dog were all cast on the peach forest road. He was on behalf of the wishes of the Jiangdong Zhang family, and came to study at the invitation of Wang Daozhi, so the settlement and various needs were provided by the Wang family. Yesterday, Liu Nong sent someone to send a famous post, and he will come to visit today.

Huating Meihe Liu Zhanzhen, Zhang Mai is very pleased with his demeanor, although the two of them are studying together, but they rarely see each other. While waving his head and waiting, he secretly thought: When I see Mizuru, I must show him my whistling......

"Moo!"

At this time, a long cry sounded, and the green ox picked up the corners, stepped on the golden leaves, pulled out the carriage with dark begonias tattooed, and walked slowly. The white robe on the wall looked at the man and the dog waiting in the distance, smiled, and shook the empty whip.

"Zhan Zhen!"

Zhang Mai was overjoyed, and strode towards the ox cart, followed by the little white dog barking happily.

Liu Nong lifted the curtain and walked out, waved his hand and smiled: "Lao Zhongren is waiting for the Tao, Liu Nong is very lucky." ”

Zhang Mai said with a smile: "Huating Meihe came, and Zhang Mai greeted him as a sweeper." ”

"Wow!" The little white dog yelled at Liu Nong, it remembered him, and the former owner almost gave him away.

"Hugh is nonsense!"

Zhang Mai seemed to understand what it was calling, and kicked it in vain, causing the little white dog to retreat a few steps in fright, and then he stood up and hugged the two front legs towards Zhang Mai and Liu Nong.

"Haha......"

Zhang Mai laughed, and Liu Nong smiled.

The two walked side by side and stepped into the hospital. Zhang Mai led Liu Nong to the Zhu Pavilion in the courtyard, where there were new reed mats, a product of agarwood had been smoked, and the wine and food were all on the file.

While chatting, Zhang Mai stood up on his knees and roared in his belly, his voice was like rolling clouds, and his momentum was like thunder.

"Wonderful!"

Liu Nong praised with a smile: "The roar of Zhongren has the elephant of infantry!" ”

Zhang Mai drank a lot of wine, supported a scarlet face, and asked with a smile: "What is the elephant of the infantry?" ”

Liu Nong half-squinted, stared at the person in front of him, and said with a smile: "But if you think in your heart, but do what you want in your heart, you will be an infantry elephant!" ”

Zhang Mai was stunned for a long time, and then waved his hands deeply, and said: "Zhan Zhen, he is really a bosom friend!" Zhang Mai used to learn to howl, so he couldn't be a god! Now the howl, no longer learn people, only the meaning in the chest! ”

Liu Nong clapped his hands and praised: "This is a great good! Then he remembered the purpose of his coming, and his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he grabbed the wine glass, and slowly walked to the side of the pavilion, and saw a rotten sea, and the autumn wind swept by, like a wave rolling. Shao leaned, there was a certain number in his heart, looking back and saying bluntly: "Zhongren, I can't hide it, Liu Nong came today, but it was ...... for one thing"
