The snow is beginning to clear, and the sky and the earth are vast.

As soon as the sky is bright, the restaurants and restaurants in Yong'an City have opened, the huge steamer is steaming, the mutton soup is boiling and the meat is fragrant, and the golden fried ghost in the oil pot is turned over by chopsticks...

In previous years, all the shops in the city were closed at this time, but now that there is a large influx of people, it is only natural that the shops are doing a good business.

In the south of the city, the military yamen of the town evil mansion has already jingled.

The dilapidated brick walls have been rearranged, the moth-eaten wooden beams have been replaced with paint, and the weather-ridden roof has been replaced with glazed tiles...

In the middle of winter, it is not a good weather to repair houses, but nearly 1,000 Yongan auxiliary soldiers went into battle together, and there were craftsmen in the battalion Chen Modao, Bai Sanxi and others under the command, everything was not a problem.

After eating breakfast, Shi Linjiu, the commander of the government army, came leisurely, and couldn't help but nod slightly when he saw the ponds, rockeries and gardens dug out behind the government office.

"Hahaha, Lin Changshi, how is it?"

Bai Sanxi took a sip of spirits and asked with a hearty smile.

Lin Jiu looked at the exquisite small buildings around him that had begun to see the scale, and said with a smile: "I used to be an errand boy in the palace when I was young, and I can be regarded as a little knowledgeable, although the place here is small, it also secretly coincides with the 'strange and elegant taste', that is, the grass and trees are dry in the middle of winter, and it is a little regrettable..."

Chen Modao on the side said with a smile: "Don't worry, this matter is not difficult, Old Man Yang said that he had found the earth fire hole on the side of Dongshan, there must be fire jade, and he has taken his apprentice to collect it, and then get a feng shui array in the next place, although it can't be like spring all year round, but it's no problem to get some flowers and plants." ”

"My lord is worried about military affairs, but now that the big wedding is coming, I can't always be stationed in the army like before, I heard that Mrs. has the reputation of the seven jades of the gods, and she is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so it is not ashamed to make it more elegant."

Lin Jiu nodded yes, smiling silently.

The news of Wang Xuan's engagement to the Mo family girl has come out, and the marriage will be completed before the end of the year, and the old people of the government army are also in a hurry to prepare, and they also asked him to be a staff officer.

From this, we can see what the government army wants.

Although he cooperated with the Mo family, and now he is married to each other, this rule cannot be broken, and there must be a distinction between priority and subordination.

With Wang Xuan's current fame, even if the mountain is closed by heavy snow, there will inevitably be a cloud of guests, if the marriage is completed in the Mojia Mountain City with better conditions, those who don't know will think that Wang Xuan is in the Mo family.

The government army was busy, and the Mo family also had the wisdom not to participate in it.

After checking the progress of the renovation of the mansion, Lin Jiu went to discuss the wedding day arrangements with Guo Luquan, and did not return to his small courtyard until it was dark.

He has a special identity, so he is also very interested in not living in the barracks, except for checking the account books of the treasury on weekdays, he spends most of his time in the small courtyard where he lives.

After returning to the room, Lin Jiu pondered for a moment, picked up a pen and wrote a brief letter on the yellow paper, and then took out a copper basin engraved with runes and threw it in.

Call~

The yellow paper spontaneously combusted without wind, igniting a green flame, and the green smoke rose into the air and disappeared inexplicably.

There are naturally many wonderful things about controlling the shrine.

Whether it is the royal family or the Taiyi Sect, they can rely on the divine power of incense to transmit information to the city god temples in various places, and they can be reached in an instant.

The territory of Dayan is vast, and the Yan Emperor dares to delegate financial power and set off a tide of wasteland, so he naturally has coercive means.

The military commanders of various prefectures are all secret agents of the royal family, one is to manage the treasury account books, and the other is to send messages to the prefecture at any time.

If there is any movement, the army will immediately come to quell the chaos.

After passing the secret letter, Lin Jiu drank tea.

He was very comfortable in Yong'an, but at the same time he was very conflicted, after all, his position was different, and if something happened, he would inevitably meet each other.

Now, it's a little more relaxed.

……

Fucheng Kangyuan, south of the city.

The snow is falling at night, and the lights in the palace are brilliant.

Outside the warm pavilion of the garden, the bamboo forest is verdant, the cold plum blossoms, but the drums are singing in the pavilion, behind the translucent huge white veil, the vivid shadow puppet villain is churning up and down.

Although there is a demon Ruan Xiu in the shadow puppet line of the Xicai Gate, the painting skin technique created by him is infinitely poisonous, but this craft has not been broken.

Now the artists of Xicaimen are performing a play "Three Armies Town River Demon", which tells the story of when the soldier Saint Li Yuan attacked the rebels in the south, there were demon dragons raging in the Jiuqu Tianhe River, trying to flood the three armies, and two of the ten marshals led the army to kill and suppress it.

The disciples of the Xicai Sect lineage made a move, which was not ordinary.

Ventriloquists sometimes imitate all kinds of human language, sometimes interpret the thunder of the sky, the river waves, and the sound rotates and reverberates in the warm pavilion, such as immersive...

The fingertips of the puppeteers are twisted and changing, and hundreds of figures are tossing and jumping, and the movements are vivid...

Those who are good at illusion will light five-colored smoke, intertwined with virtual shadows, and change mountains and rivers...

It only takes five people to create a magnificent battlefield.

Dugusheng, the king of Bingzhou, drank a little wine and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was watching a play, but in fact he recalled many past events in the barracks.

Liu Changgeng, the assassin of Bingzhou next to him, was also a little distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, a chamberlain came with his head bowed and walked in, handing over the note in his hand respectfully.

After taking it, Wang Dugusheng first glanced at it, then waved his hand to order the troupe to retreat, and handed the note to Liu Changgeng.

"Wang Xuan is about to get married?"

Liu Changgeng glanced at it and said thoughtfully: "When the government army was restructured, this person escaped death, but because he had no family lineage to support, no one was optimistic, but he didn't want to make a name for himself. ”

"I heard that this person has an extraordinary mind and wants to revive the lintel, but now he has not married the Xiao family, the Tu Su family, or even the Dharma lineage, and only married the daughter of the Mo family as his wife, but he is very smart."

"Chang Gung thinks too much."

The king of Bingzhou laughed, "It's not to show his heart, but the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, and he doesn't want to be a vassal of others." ”

"I see..."

Liu Changgeng smiled dumbly, "This Captain Wang is good at military training, and he is a talented general with a lot of wisdom, and it would be a pity if he was taken down by the family." ”

"However, he is left and right between the Xiao family and the Tu Su family, but he is in a quagmire, the prince not only helped him to break the siege, but also gave him a gift of his beloved horse 'dragon scales', is it possible that this person is of great use?"

The king of Bingzhou was silent for a while, and sighed faintly: "It's just a leisurely move." ”

"The longevity of the god is not more than 100, the emperor is past the prime of life, and there is only this opportunity to unify the great cause of the human race, and his thoughts have become deeper and deeper over the years, although he has established a prince, he is more fond of the three princes and the six princes."

"Everyone knows that the gluttonous army is established, if anyone makes immortal achievements, it is possible to control the great cause of the society, the atmosphere of the divine capital is becoming more and more treacherous, this king is old, and he can help the prince..."

With that, both of them fell silent.

Liu Changgeng saw that the king of Bingzhou was in a bad mood, and hurriedly smiled and said: "The prince has outstanding vision, this captain Wang has the talent to command the army, and his own cultivation is also good, if the training is good, the prince will definitely have one more general when he marches south." ”

King Bingzhou's face softened slightly, and he stroked his beard and smiled: "There are many old men in the army, and there are many talented children of the royal family, but compared to these wolf cubs who are struggling to survive, they are still a little less bloody." ”

"If you want to raise a soldier, you can't be stingy, Chang Gung, you let the recorder join the army to go on my behalf."

"Yes, lord."

Liu Changgeng bowed his hand respectfully, and then said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, I heard that Marshal Xiao Jianqiu will return to his hometown in a few days, do you want to send a fine work into Xiaojiashan City?" ”

"No, you don't."

The king of Bingzhou thought for a moment and shook his head slightly, "The Xiao family has lost ground in the border army, and now it is nothing more than a stable annexation of the state, if this king is not mistaken, Xiao Jianqiu will come back, and he will definitely retreat with those two old ghosts, if he can achieve an earth immortal, he will have a chance when he goes south." ”

"Earth Immortals... Isn't it so easy, no need to ask for trouble? ”

"Yes, lord."

……

"Wang Xuan wants to get married?"

In the high-rise building of the Xianquan County and Prefecture Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Jili looked at the invitation card in his hand, frowned and shook his head slightly, "This person is also a general, I thought he had a personal affair with Qingman..."

"Brother thinks too much."

Xiao Zhongmou checked the account book in his hand, and said in a deep voice without raising his head: "Qingman's fate is bumpy, and his heart is like ashes, and he is dedicated to serving the Tao and leaving a legacy for his master, don't bother anymore." ”

"That's what Zhongmou said."

Xiao Jili sighed faintly, "Yong'an is sitting on two giant cuprite mines, and there are dragon's nest new city and Qinzhou trade road, but this person seems to be on the side of the royal family. ”

Xiao Zhongmou shook his head slightly, "The mountain city has already made a decision, and the king of the state personally pulls people, it is not easy to deal with it, the three ancestors want to retreat, everything is safe, with Wang Xuan as a buffer, the Tu Su family can also settle down." ”

"Just send someone to send some congratulatory gifts, you don't have to get too close."

"That's what Zhongmou said."

Xiao Jili looked at the flying snow outside the building, his face was a little solemn, "Next year, I want to clean up the demon inheritance, and I don't know how the mountain city is going to deal with the Shenji Pavilion, if there is a mess..."

Xiao Zhongmou put together the account book, and also looked out the window at the cold wind and snow, his eyes were unpredictable...

……

The news of Wang Xuan's wedding has spread all over Bingzhou in a short period of time, some people plan to go to Daohe in person, and some people just decide to give some gifts.

With his current reputation, his every move will lead to speculation.

But no matter what you say, it also added a touch of joy to the end of the fifth year of the five-year celebration of the state of Merge.
