Qi Zhang turned his head and looked at Sheng Jiaojiao with a smile, with a doting face,

"Did you call Tan Ji casually? It's not big or small, you have to call it brother. ”

Get used to it! Sheng Jiaojiao showed a playful smile on her face, she didn't call him brother, she wanted to call him Tan Ji by name and surname.

Tan Ji, Tan Ji, Tan Ji!

This scene happened to be seen by Tan Ji, who turned around, he glanced at her and didn't care what she called him.

turned back to Qi Zhang and said the right thing,

"When I came out of the barracks today, the battalion commander specially asked me about the expansion of the camp."

"What a coincidence, our battalion commander also asked me."

Qi Zhang looked at Tan Ji with a smile, the two of them belonged to the best in the camp, if the camp was expanded, from two battalions in the east and west, to four battalions, then the establishment would increase, and the two of them would very likely be promoted.

Sheng Jiaojiao listened to the conversation between the two, silently counted the time, and asked:

"Is it because the prince has been exiled to us that the subject country is starting to get restless?"

This time, Qi Zhang and Tan Ji glanced back at her at the same time, and Tan Ji said:

"Restlessness has always been there, and the arrival of the crown prince has only strengthened their ambitions."

This is also the reason why Jishang is heavily guarded, although the one who came to them was only a deposed prince, but even if he was deposed, he was the son of the emperor of the imperial capital.

If the emperor's son is captured by a vassal state, whether he is deposed or not, the nature is different.

Sheng Jiaojiao nodded and said very seriously:

"We'll be fine, there are big brothers and Tan Ji here."

The subordinate country will come, and it will come quickly, but Qi Zhang and Tan Ji will not let them set foot on the land in the north of the county.

When Qi Zhang heard this, he turned around and smiled:

"Jiaojiao'er, why didn't the eldest brother realize it before, you trust you so much Brother Tan Ji?"

It's right for her to trust him, after all, she is her sister-in-law, but Tan Ji and Sheng Jiaojiao haven't seen each other for several years, and Sheng Jiaojiao never mentioned Tan Ji before.

Why is it so special to Tan Ji today?

Sheng Jiaojiao Zhengse said:

"I feel that among the men in Zhishou County, there is no better man than the eldest brother and Tan Ji."

She felt that she might have behaved too special to Tan Ji, which aroused Qi Zhang's suspicions.

So busy remedy, again:

"Of course, my eldest brother is the most powerful, and Tan Ji can't compare!"

It's always right to pat my brother's ass more.

Her expression was too innocent, and the tone in her tone was natural, and Qi Zhang wanted to laugh when she heard it, and being trusted and held by her sister made Qi Zhang's mood very good.

Tan Ji's sword eyebrows raised, and he looked at Qi Zhang, Qi Zhang fought with him and had never won.

However, Tan Ji has no intention of scheming with Sheng Jiaojiao, she is Qi Zhang's sister, and she thinks that her brother is the most powerful, so she takes it for granted.

Tan Ji's brows relaxed, but there was still no smile on his face.

Tan Xiaojian behind him was a few teenagers, completely juvenile in heart, and when he heard that the camp was going to be expanded, he made a comparison, and Tan Xiaojian said happily:

"Then as soon as we enter, with our skills, we can become the team leader?"

It is very likely, Sheng Jiaojiao nodded secretly, if the camp is to be expanded, it means that the number of recruits will increase, and if there are particularly excellent soldiers, as soon as they enter the recruit camp, they will be promoted to squad leader.

Listening to the discussion of Tan Xiaojian and a few people behind her, Sheng Jiaojiao thought about it and said to Qi Zhang and Tan Ji in front of her:

"Big brother, Tan Ji, I think that if you have made meritorious contributions, you don't have to pay everything you collected, and the subject country will definitely become more and more restless in the future, but when the two countries are at war, it is often not until there are casualties in a large area that they attract the attention of the imperial capital."

She said slowly, riding on the horse, her eyes lowered, looking like she was just a quiet girl, but the words she said made Qi Zhang and Tan Ji's faces appear a touch of surprise and deep thought.

Sheng Jiaojiao didn't care so much, anyway, she had also told Qi Zhang about similar things just now, and now she just said it again to Tan Ji.

So he continued:

"If the seized booty can be used to buy good horses and weapons for your own military camp, or to buy winter clothes for the soldiers to prepare for the war, so that if the imperial capital does not respond in time, whether the baggage is transported or not, in the early stage, we are at least prepared."

As she spoke, she raised her eyes sharply and saw Tan Ji looking back at her, and her dark eyes met her like this.

Sheng Jiaojiao reacted, oh no, did she say too much, too skillful?

In fact, Tan Ji did this in his previous life.

It is precisely because of every time there is a war, the amount of loot reported by Tan Ji is not detailed, and the officials have quite opinions, and Yin Ze is also secretly angry, but he has to rely on Tan Ji to fight, and it is not easy to attack.

But Tan Ji in this life, I'm afraid I haven't thought so deeply for the time being.

Sheng Jiaojiao said too deeply, she just wanted to remind Qi Zhang and Tan Ji, because in the previous life, before Daze and the subject country officially started the war, the subject country had gone south to harass Daze for several years.

In those years, not only the people in the frontier had a hard time, but even the soldiers in the border area also had a hard time.

It was because Daze did not pay attention to it, did not officially declare war with the subject country for a long time, and the baggage was not transported to the frontier, and those soldiers had to endure the hardship of the shortage of baggage while fighting the border.

To be honest, the reason why I can persist is that I am afraid that it is only a determination to protect the family and defend the country.

Tan Ji turned around and walked in front of Qi Zhang silently, without speaking, and he didn't know what the two of them were thinking in their hearts.

Sheng Jiaojiao didn't dare to continue to say more, for fear that if she said too much, it would make Qi Zhang and Tan Ji suspicious.

In this way, we soon arrived at the fork in the road back to the village.

Niu Ju was embarrassed to let Tan Xiaojian enter the village, took the initiative to get off Tan Xiaojian's horse, and glanced at Qi Zhang, his face was black and red.

Qi Zhang led the horse and continued to walk towards the village with Sheng Jiaojiao, Niu Ju lowered her head and followed behind Qi Zhang without saying a word, like a little daughter-in-law.

After separating from Niu Ju and returning home, Sheng Jiaojiao got off Qi Zhang's horse, took the initiative to unload the clay jar hanging on the horse's back, went back to the house to change her shoes, and prepared to pour water into the water tank.

Qi Zhang was about to help, but his mother called him into the house.

It was dark, Qi Huan had already come back from the set, and when he heard Sheng Jiaojiao enter the courtyard, he hurriedly ran out and helped Sheng Jiaojiao take the clay pot to pour water, and then grabbed a few notebooks and entered Sheng Jiaojiao's house.

"Here, third sister, this is the money for the dish."

A large handful of copper coins were placed on Sheng Jiaojiao's bookcase.

She didn't count how many there were, only half of it came out and let Qi Huan take it.

When Qi Huan happily counted the copper coins, Sheng Jiaojiao said:

"Bring me the words, and I'll look at them."
