Chapter 409 The Fourteenth Year of King Qin's reign
"Sister is here again?" In the March sunshine, Honglian, dressed in a pink dress, had just stepped into the back door of the Yang family, and a small figure had already blocked her way.
Honglian didn't have to lower her head to look at the short figure to know who it was, in this family, no one would call her that except for Yingying, the little girl.
Yang Yingying, who was born in the eighth year of the reign of King Qin, is six years old this year
At this time, it has been more than two years since Yang Ming returned to Xianyang from Nanyang County, because of the Nanyang incident, Yang Ming was ordered by Xianyang Palace to think about it behind closed doors, not to leave Xianyang without permission, for such a punishment, Yang Ming is naturally happy to accept it, he is a very homely person, with a beautiful wife and concubine by his side, how can he think about going out, so this punishment from Xianyang Palace is very interesting, no one knows what kind of mind Qin Wangzheng is.
"How many times have I told you that you want to call me aunt." Honglian leaned down and pinched Yingying's little face and said, when she was a child, she was often pinched by her parents and brothers like this, and she was miserable at that time.
At that time, she hated such behavior, but now? Pinching Yingying's little face, Honglian only felt that the hand felt really good.
"You are my father's apprentice, that is, my senior sister, I should have called you sister, let me call you aunt, do you want to take advantage of me?" Ying Ying pushed the red lotus away and glared at the red lotus viciously.
Looking at the fierce and vicious Yingying, Honglian smiled nonchalantly, speaking of which, there is also a big doubt in Honglian's heart, Yingying's mother-in-law startled salamander is a cold and indifferent character, but in Yingying's body, it is a completely different character, not like a startled salamander at all.
"How can this be said to be taking advantage of you, don't you see that the mother and several aunts I called you are all called sisters? I'm the sister of your mother and aunts, is there a problem with you calling me an aunt? Red Lotus said with a reason.
"Then you're trying to take advantage of my father." Hearing Honglian's reason, Ying Ying retorted.
"Huh?" Hearing Yingying's rebuttal, Honglian's gaze couldn't help but stare at it, and she subconsciously looked at the little girl in front of her, and there was already a lack of heart in her expression, fortunately, it seemed to be just an unintentional statement, not what she imagined.
But Honglian, who was hit by Yingying's seemingly unintentional words, didn't dare to dwell on this matter anymore, and sometimes the child's unintentional words would cause great damage.
"Okay, whatever you want, you can call me whatever you want, why are you alone today?" Honglian pulled Yingying's little hand and said, sister is sister!
"They are all looking at the cultivation results of Sister Black and White, and I can't understand it and run out." Ying Ying explained.
"Really? How are the two little guys in black and white doing? Have you become a master? Red Lotus curiously pulled Ying Ying to the backyard.
Honglian, who often goes in and out of the Yang Mansion, is naturally no stranger to the little sisters of black and white, knowing that the two are also the first two members of the Yang family, Yang Ming has always taught the two martial arts, and later after Concubine Yan became the mistress of this family, she taught the two a lot of yin and yang techniques, and the two are also real geniuses, after a few years, but the two of them are twelve or thirteen years old, they are considered a little master, at least much stronger than Honglian herself at the same age.
"No, they're the weakest in the house." Ying Ying shook her head and said, she didn't have a clear understanding of the concept of master, she only knew that in this family, black and white martial arts were the lowest, and even if they joined forces, they couldn't beat any aunt.
"Can it be compared like that? When your aunts go out, how many people in the world can be their opponents? Honglian shook her head and smiled, weakness also depends on who you compare with, the people in this mansion, any one who walks out, is a top master, even the weakest orchid is a second-rate peak, the scimitar knife technique in one hand is as fast as the wind, treacherous as a cloud, and it is even more murderous, as for the startling salamander and flame spirit Ji, not to mention.
By the way, it's not that there are no weak ones. Honglian thought about it, and a figure in green clothes suddenly appeared in her mind, but that one was not weak, and she was the smartest.
"Really?" Ying Ying will be suspicious, the concept of strength and weakness lies mostly in contrast, and her current cognition is only limited to this mansion, only horizontal contrast, but no vertical contrast, and the perception of strength and weakness is naturally biased.
"Let's go, let's go check it out." Red Lotus Dao, unlike Yingying, who has no concept of martial arts, is still very interested.
After turning a few corridors and courtyards, Red Lotus pulled Ying Ying to an inner courtyard in the backyard, but unfortunately, she was obviously a little late, and the black and white sisters were kneeling in front of Concubine Yan to be taught.
As for Gongsun Li, Startling Salamander, and Flame Spirit Ji had already left, and when they met Concubine Yan's gaze, Red Lotus instinctively felt a burst of weakness, in front of the hostess of this mansion, her confidence was not so strong, especially when her brother Han Fei knew Concubine Yan's other identity.
"Red Lotus is here? Your master has a guest now, so you can wait here first. Concubine Yan glanced at the red lotus, and then stopped paying attention to her, for this neighbor who can run the door five times in three days, Concubine Yan has long had no need to see outside, and there is no way to talk about hospitality.
"I'm not here to find Master." The red lotus, who was directly explained by Concubine Yan, said with a sneering face.
It's a pity that Concubine Yan is obviously not interested in Honglian's explanation, who still comes from this age, why bother to dig into it.
When Honglian was still 'fighting wits and courage', a guest did come to the front door of the Yang Mansion, and it was Wang Jian who had returned from Dongjun not long ago.
In the past two years or so, the situation in the world has been relatively calm, except that Zhao is still being beaten.
In more than two years, the defense line in the south of Zhao was completely pushed north to the line of Zhangshui and the South Great Wall, and the city on the north bank of the Great River south of Zhangshui was occupied by the Qin army, and Wang Jian successfully stepped into a high position in this series of wars, accumulated military merits, and officially replaced Huan Qi and became the new general of Qin.
In the battlefield against Zhao, Wang Ben, Li Xin, and Meng Tian also had outstanding military achievements, and they could all lead an army to fight alone.
And as the Qin State completely occupied the cities on the north and south lines of the Great River, isolated the country of the Three Jin Dynasty, and completely divided the world into north and south along the first line of the Great River with the four counties of Hedong, Hanoi, Shangdang, and Dongjun on the first line of the Great River, the next strategic goals of the Qin State have also really changed.
The previous war of the Qin State against the Six Kingdoms was only to capture the city and occupy the population, but the next war was a real war to destroy the country.
"Congratulations to General Wang on his promotion to general, and since then, he has deserved to be the first person in the army." In the hall, Yang Ming congratulated Wang Qian.
Over the years, Yang Ming's promotion speed seems to be the fastest, but in fact it is not, in the Qin State, the fastest promotion speed is Wang Qian, in the sixth year of the Qin Wangzheng Five Kingdoms Combined Attack on Qin, Wang Jian is just a marginal general who escorts grain and grass, this is less than ten years, has become the general of the Qin State, this speed, in the Qin State, can be described as the first in decades.
"Yang Hujun's words will be tormenting to the old man, what kind of general is not a general, he is just serving the king and the Qin State." Wang Jian said modestly.
Although he is already a general, and his status in the army is still nominally above Yang Ming, but his family knows his own affairs, in front of Yang Ming, how can Wang Jian be so superficial and have even a trace of arrogance.
Wang Jian knew very well that in the past few years, if it weren't for the fact that the king of Xianyang Palace had deliberately suppressed Yang Ming's promotion speed, according to Yang Ming's ability, the position of general could be said to be captured, and where would it be his turn.
You must know that a general who is less than 30 years old is too appalling, not to mention anything else, a general who is less than 30 years old, if there is no accident, must have a career of 30 years, or even 40 years.
On the contrary, Wang Jian is already over forty years old, and he should almost retire after more than ten years of fighting, and there is no need to worry about the people in the army who have become one surname in the Xianyang Palace.
Wang Jian knew that in front of Yang Ming, he only had the advantage of age, as for the rest? It's better to be modest, besides, he has a steady temperament, and he won't have any rebellious behavior.
Wang Jian is not only a general who is proficient in the way of battle formation, he is also an old fox in the officialdom who is well versed in the way of being an official.
"The general's visit is a ......" Yang Ming did not respond to Wang Qian's modesty, but asked another topic.
"Yang Hujun knows that yesterday the king asked me about the attack on the Six Kingdoms." Wang Jian replied.
"Defeat the Six Nations? It's almost time. Yang Ming was not surprised, Yang Ming could see this world more clearly than anyone else, after all, he was a person who could see through time and space.
"The king once asked me which country should start the war of annihilation that is about to start." Wang Jian continued.
"The Admiral wouldn't be trying to ask me that question now, would he?" Yang Ming asked.
"It's not just me, it's also the king's doubts, so the king specially sent me to ask Yang Hujun's opinion." Wang Jian said.
"It's nothing more than South Korea and Zhao, as for whether the first country to be defeated is South Korea or Zhao, it's a matter of trade-offs, but the better choice should be South Korea." Yang Ming said indifferently.
