Chapter 468: It's Delicious But Dumplings
After entertaining Yang Ling, Zhao Fan breathed a sigh of relief and got up and came to the backyard.
He knocked on the door,
"I wonder if my sister-in-law has rested?"
"I haven't rested, what is the matter with my uncle?"
A pleasant voice came from inside the room, and then the door opened, and a beautiful young woman walked out.
She is Zhao Fan's sister-in-law, Fan.
"I just finished entertaining the general of the imperial court, and I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a few days, so I came to visit."
Zhao Fan explained.
Since his brother's death three years ago, he has been very courteous to his sister-in-law, Fan, and has come to visit him every once in a while.
"Uncle is too careful, I'm fine in the past few days."
Fan replied.
"That's good, the little brother will retire first."
Zhao Fan retreated.
He had returned to his room, and had just taken off his clothes and was about to go up to rest when he heard a knock on the door.
"Too shou, too shou......"
Zhao Fan could hear that it was Chen Ying's voice.
He felt a little strange in his heart, how could Chen Ying look for himself at such a late hour?
Zhao Fan got dressed again and pushed open the door to let Chen Ying in.
"What's the matter with you so late?"
"Back to Taishou, the people we sent to ask Uncle Liu for help...... It's back! ”
"Huh?"
Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Chen Ying's solemn face, a trace of ominous premonition appeared in his heart,
"Shouldn't Uncle Liu's reinforcements arrive?"
"Yes, indeed, they will arrive by tomorrow night at the latest."
Chen Ying smiled bitterly,
"Taishou, how is this good?"
Hearing Chen Ying's words, Zhao Fan was also dumbfounded.
If he had received the news a day earlier, he would naturally have refused to surrender to Yang Ling.
But he had already welcomed Cao Jun into the city, and Liu Bei was careful.
How good is that?
When Zhao Fan was in a dilemma, Chen Ying said in a low voice,
"There is one more thing I forgot to tell Taishou, Uncle Liu's advisor Yi, who came back with our messenger."
"If Taishou doesn't know how to choose, it's better to see him first."
Zhao Fan thought about it, nodded and said,
"It's okay, you can get someone here quickly!"
"Whoa!"
Chen Ying took the order and left.
Zhao Fan was alone in the room, pacing back and forth a little restlessly.
The Cao army on the front foot entered the city, and Liu Bei's reinforcements on the back foot arrived, this thing was too coincidental, right?!
After a while, Chen Ying turned back, followed by Iraqi.
"I've seen Taishou!"
Yi Yuan saluted Zhao Fan.
"You're welcome, Mr. Jibo, please take a seat."
Zhao Fan beckoned Yi to sit down, glanced at Chen Ying, and motioned for him to go outside and stare at him.
After the two of them sat down, Yi didn't ink, so he directly explained his intentions.
"As early as after Taishou sent someone to ask for help, my lord was ready to help."
"However, Changsha is too guarded by Han Xuan's oil and salt, and refuses to lend it to us."
"After a lot of communication, he was moved."
"It's just that we were kind enough to come to the rescue of Taishou, why didn't Taishou surrender without a fight?"
When Zhao Fan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly,
"It's not that I'm afraid of Cao Jun, it's just that Guiyang is a county, and I'm not Cao Jun's opponent at all."
"And Uncle Liu Huang's side has not moved for a long time, in order to avoid the destruction of life, he chose to surrender the city below."
Yi Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice,
"Now that the reinforcements have arrived, I don't know what Taishou's plans are? Will you continue to help Cao Wei abuse, or will you cooperate with our army to take Yang Ling? ”
"This ......"
Zhao Fan was in a dilemma for a while.
Yang Ling and Liu Bei were fighting, but it was he who suffered.
"I heard that Taishou's sister-in-law is beautiful and fairy, and Yang Ling is extremely lustful. If you let him know......"
Yi Ji didn't continue, but the expression on his face was meaningful!
Thinking of his sister-in-law, Zhao Fan was shocked.
yes, how did you forget about this stubble?
If Yang Ling knew that his sister-in-law had the color of captivating the country and the city, would he let it go?
He gritted his teeth and nodded,
"Okay, I'm willing to listen to Mr. Jibo!"
"That's great!"
Yi was overjoyed.
The two conspired and made a plan, and the Iraqi family left in a hurry.
Watching his back disappear into the night, Zhao Fan was in a complicated mood.
He looked at Chen Ying on the side and said worriedly,
"In your opinion, is it possible for us to take Yang Ling?"
"Yang Ling only has 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Mr. Jibo and they also have 30,000 soldiers and horses. If you have mental calculations or not, it shouldn't be a problem to win Yang Ling. ”
Chen Ying analyzed.
"I hope so!"
Zhao Fan sighed.
……
After deciding to act as an internal response, cooperate with Liu Bei's reinforcements, and deal with Yang Ling, Zhao Fan didn't rest well all night.
The next day, he even came to see Yang Ling with a pair of panda eyes.
When Yang Ling saw him like this, he couldn't help but smile and quipped,
"It seems that the nightlife is very exciting."
"The general has an overreputation, but he has just taken refuge in the general, and he is a little too excited to sleep."
Zhao Fan was afraid that Yang Ling would see something, so he replied calmly.
"It's nothing if I can't sleep, it's just that I'm too excited to do something I shouldn't do."
Yang Ling laughed seemingly unintentionally.
But after Zhao Fan heard this, he was scared into a cold sweat!
Fortunately, Yang Ling didn't say anything, just walked towards the outside of the mansion by himself.
Zhao Fan breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed behind Yang Ling.
Accompanied by him, Yang Ling inspected Chenxian County.
When the group came back, it was already noon, Yang Ling grabbed Zhao Fan and said with a smile,
"Coincidentally, it just so happened that I ordered my subordinates to cook dumplings today, Taishou might as well dine together."
Zhao Fan couldn't refuse, so he had to nod his head.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate."
Dumplings were invented by Zhang Ji in Wancheng and have not yet spread to the Jingnan area.
When the steaming dumplings were served, Zhao Fan smelled the aroma and opened his index finger for a while.
After the next person prepared the vinegar, Yang Ling ate a dumpling with vinegar, and a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Zhao Fan swallowed his saliva, and did the same, picking up a dumpling and putting it in his mouth.
The moment he entered, he froze.
As a county guard, Zhao Fan has not eaten delicious food.
But compared to the dumplings in front of me, it's still not enough.
Soft and smooth, the filling is fragrant and juicy!
"What does Zhao Taishou think?"
Yang Ling said with a smile.
"Delicious, delicious!"
While Zhao Fan nodded again and again, he kept holding chopsticks in his hand and sending them to his mouth.
When a large plate of dumplings was finished, he sighed contentedly,
"It's the first time I've eaten such delicious food."
"This thing is called dumplings, and there is a way that it is delicious but dumplings, and fun is not sweeping, which shows how delicious dumplings are."
Yang Ling said with a smile.
Hearing him talk about his sister-in-law, Zhao Fan's heart tightened, and he barely squeezed out a smile,
"The general is right, these dumplings are really delicious!"
