"Miss, although Zheng Peng is not a child, he has never seen anything in the world, and he is a high-spirited person, but he can't pretend to be a person, he may be able to deal with others, Zheng Tong and him have some past feelings after all, I am afraid that he will not be able to do anything good this time."

The people who should be scattered here have all dispersed, and even Wenliang followed Tang Mingyi, asking him to take a good look at the demeanor of the generals of the Liangzhou Army.

So only Zhixia was left, and Li Mao, who had just instructed Zheng to put a while, was here to talk.

Li Mao was already worried about Zheng Peng, if this person was placed outside, it would not be good in a place like a wine shop, but in some teahouses, doing something to collect news, or to incite passers-by with justice and awe, it was just enough.

But if he is asked to pretend and gossip, this person is absolutely not suitable.

Besides, he is worried about Tian Niangzi's suffering every day, and if he has the opportunity today, he must want to take his mother out.

And this matter is the best to handle Zheng Tong, if Tian Niangzi comes out of the Zheng family, there will be no containment sent by Zheng Tong himself.

It's not that Li Mao's heart is black, he has no feelings for Zheng Peng and them, and Zheng Peng is far from the point where he regrets his talents. This situation has obviously been created, and only two people can control the biggest family head in Tongcheng, and Li Mao will never let go of this opportunity.

If Li Mao does it, even if Zheng Tong personally sends Tian Niangzi over, he will have to find a way to send it back.

Therefore, I don't know what the eldest lady's plan is.

"How do you feel bad?" Wen leaned in front of the couch and asked casually.

She had planned to sleep until tomorrow morning, but I don't know if it was because of her unstable sleep for days, she was obviously very sleepy, but the light could not be completely covered, and she couldn't sleep when she lay down.

So he hurriedly recruited Li Mao to come over and make arrangements for Zheng Peng, and then it was almost time for dinner, so he simply gave up the idea of sleeping again, and waited for a good rest after dinner.

And even if Li Mao came to see the eldest lady in a hurry, he didn't come empty-handed, he specially brought a plate of freshly picked mulberries and handed them over to Zhixia to wash, which would have been eaten in retrospect.

Seeing the eldest lady asking, Li Mao did not hide it, and only told his thoughts truthfully.

After hearing this, he didn't blame Li Mao, but said: "How can I have mulberries to eat so early this year." ”

As he spoke, he handed the plate to Zhixia, and the maid was even more unrestrained, grabbed a handful and held it in her hand: "Yes, it is said that there should be another half a month." ”

Wen Gu handed it to Li Mao again, but Li Mao didn't dare to be as presumptuous as Zhixia, only pinched one with his fingers, and said at the same time: "Miss, if you don't say that the water and soil of this Tongcheng are good, there is a garden in the north of the city, there are two trees in it, and the fruit bears fruit earlier than the one next to it, and I don't see it sour, so I bought it with the owner of the garden, and gave the eldest lady a taste first, that is, it is still smaller, and it will be suitable to eat in half a month." ”

Wen Gu nodded: "We have come all the way from Liangzhou, and we have gone through so many things, but this matter is always one after another, and there is no sign of an end." ”

Li Mao hurriedly said: "It all depends on the eldest lady's thoughtfulness and prudent calculations, otherwise there will be only these things." ”

Li Mao said, habitually bending slightly, Wen happened to see the scar on his forehead that was slightly lighter but obviously would not recede, so he said sincerely: "Which is the credit of my own people, thank you for your hard work." ”

Li Mao also followed the humble two sentences and said again: "But even so, I still want to eat something fresh every day, as long as I eat it, I will feel happy, and I feel that this world is not all difficult." ”

After a pause, he asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Eaters, it's not just a stomach, the eldest lady is good at tasting all kinds of flavors, and naturally she can find the truth of everything from it, so that she can go through all kinds of things and overcome all difficulties without damage." Li Mao responded.

"I'm not talking about that." Wen Gu shook his head, "I just think that in addition to living, people always have to have a thought." And I can't think about anything else than that. ”

"Miss......"

Although there was no overly sad tone in this sentence, Zhixia still heard the meaning, and I don't know how the eldest lady felt uncomfortable, and she wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know how to say it.

However, Wen continued: "But there is still one layer. I regard these as hopes, because I still have the Liangzhou Army to rely on, and you, and Uncle Wen to find it for me, so it is within reach. ”

Zhixia was still cherishing the eldest lady's mood, but Li Mao probably thought of what she meant, so he nodded.

"But the people of Anping and Guangyang counties, I'm afraid their hopes are simpler, but they are also more difficult, they just want to live."

Li Mao took the opportunity to respond: "The eldest lady has the ...... of the people"

Wen still shook his head and stopped his words: "And these people like Zheng Peng, born in troubled times, temporarily stable, what do you say he is thinking about every day and every night in this place?" ”

Li Mao replied seriously: "Naturally, it is a mother-son reunion. ”

Wen Gu finally nodded: "Then again, I have thought about the Sun family and the Zheng family in the past few days, the situation in Tongcheng, Yang Wantang, and even thought about us before." Do you think that our Liangzhou army has such a great ability, just a corner of peace, and survive by itself, even if it restrains itself not to rob the people and not bully the weak, is it enough? ”

Li Mao took a deep breath and looked solemn: "What does the eldest lady mean?" ”

"Liang Zhoujun only relies on me, or only our own support, isn't it a little stingy?" Wen Gu smiled slightly, "The current Anping Guangyang, and maybe some other places in the future, I can't do it for the time being, but some of the hardships in front of me are at least some of the hardships that don't involve the safety of our thousands of people, and I always want to stretch out my hand." ”

"I see." Li Mao responded sincerely, and of course found some other meanings from the old words, "I also have a sentence I want to ask the eldest lady." ”

Wen nodded and motioned for him to come along.

"I was thinking of finding a suitable opportunity to talk about this matter, but since the eldest lady mentioned it, I asked about it as well." Li Mao said seriously, "Are we going to the east or the south?" I'm going to get ready. ”

He knew what he meant, and to go east was to take advantage of the troubled times to save the people, accumulate strength, rein in those miscellaneous armies of Southern Chu, and then build a Liangzhou city.

To the south, it is to attach to Southern Chu, turn the tide, first reject the Yu State in the north, achieve meritorious deeds, and then clean up the court and give Southern Chu a clear mind.

Now that there is a relationship with Tang Mingyi, both roads can be taken.
