Chapter 192: Going Home
"Your Highness, that Song Guogong really hid some good horses, and even went to drink with Naha's wife and daughter at night?"
On the way back, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, Guo An asked curiously.
Hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but snort coldly, "Can my father still wronged that Feng Sheng?" Moreover, this matter was personally exposed by Na Changmao. ”
"Alas!"
Guo An subconsciously sighed.
Zhu Di said hatefully: "Cao thief and the like! ”
"Cao thief?"
Guo An glanced at Zhu Di in surprise, why did Zhu Laosi be so angry about Cao Thief.
Zhu Di reacted and waved his hand a little impatiently, "Okay, this expedition has been going on for so long, Guo Qing will have a good rest after he goes back, don't ask about these things." ”
"Wechen obeys!"
Guo An nodded slightly, and didn't ask too much.
After Zhu Di said this, he was indeed homesick.
And, counting the time, it was time for his child to be born.
The more he thought about it, Guo An's thoughts suddenly couldn't be stopped, and they poured out frantically.
Similarly, the closer they got to Beiping Mansion, the faster the pace of the Yan Shanwei became.
Half a month later, Guo An took Guo Erniu and hurriedly walked into the familiar Chunshu Hutong.
"The master is back!"
With a cry of surprise, Guo An walked quickly into the house.
"Dad, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law......"
Facing him, there was a group of people, and Guo An couldn't help but be surprised.
"You bastard, it's been more than half a year since you've been gone, go wash up and meet Bai Wei and your child!"
"Kid?"
Guo An's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly arched his hand towards Guo's father, Liu's father and others, and walked forward quickly.
Sure enough, in the innermost house, Liu Baiwei was sitting on the bed, and in the innermost part of the bed, there was a small person babbling.
"Girl, we're back!"
With a soft shout, Guo An hurriedly walked over.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Guo An's steps were stunned, his eyes were round, and he looked at the little man who appeared in the bed with a face full of disbelief.
"Sister, two ...... How could it be two? ……”
"Why can't it be two? The dragon and phoenix fetus wronged you? ”
Without waiting for Liu Baiwei to reply, Guo's mother appeared behind her and slapped Guo An's head heavily, although her mouth was full of disgust, but the joy in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that my sister would be so powerful that she could give birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus for my Guo family!
My sister is really a hero of our Guo family......"
Saying that, Guo An walked over cautiously, and made Liu Baiwei blush.
"Husband, is my mother still there?"
"It's okay! You're my......"
Guo An didn't mind at all, so he directly turned his head and teased the two little things, although they were still small, their skin was a little wrinkled, ugly, but in Guo An's eyes, they were very kind.
Is this his cub, or two at a time!
As for Guo's mother, she glared at Guo An with disgust on her face and walked out.
"In the past few months, I have wronged my sister!"
Inside the house, Guo An said with an affectionate face.
"Husband, what are you talking about, the concubine eats and drinks and is taken care of, unlike the husband, who has been out for more than half a year, and the whole person is dark......"
“……”
Inside the house, the two of them were talking sweetly.
In the main hall outside the house, Guo's father, Liu's father and others asked Guo Erniu in front of them with solemn faces.
……
After resting at home for two days, Guo An went to Yanwang's Mansion to order.
Then, after reading a few account books, Guo Anxin already had a certain clear understanding of the development of Yanwangfu.
"See His Royal Highness King Yan!"
In the heart hall, after two days of rest, Zhu Di sat on the upper seat vigorously.
Zhu Fu and Guo An sat below with a look of discouragement.
As the head of the Yanwang Mansion, all affairs, including how to settle the 8,000 yuan army, were all on Zhu Fu's shoulders, and he was tired of this old man in the past few months.
Guo An, on the other hand, has not yet eased up.
Zhu Di asked: "Guo Qing, the 8,000 yuan army was brought back by you who you strongly requested, I don't know how you are going to settle them?" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Fu's face sank, and he turned his head to stare at Guo An.
In the past two days, in order to settle the 8,000 Mongols, he was heartbroken, and he never expected that the 8,000 bastards were actually brought back by Guo An.
"Those 8,000 Mongols don't know how to farm, and I don't have a grassland for them to graze in Beiping Prefecture, I wonder what is the use of Guo Changshi bringing these Mongols back to Beiping?"
"Zhu Changshi is not in a hurry, not in a hurry!"
Guo An was stunned for a moment, not knowing how these 8,000 Mongolians provoked this old man, and hurriedly said: "These 8,000 Mongolians, regardless of men, women, old and young, are all big shoulders and thick waists, and they must be good at work."
Moreover, these 8,000 Mongols are all defeated under my Yan Shanwei, as long as they are taken care of by my Yan Shanwei, they dare not be dishonest.
In this way, they are servitudes that are good and do not need money! ”
Zhu Fu exhaled and said, "Hmph, but they are also good at eating."
Guo Changshi can know that in just these two days, those 8,000 Mongolians have eaten how much grain in my Yanwang Mansion, and they are even clamoring to eat meat!
The soldiers of my Yanwangfu don't have much meat to eat, just their tartars...... My Yanwang Mansion raises 8,000 of them, so it is better to raise 15,000 Yanshanwei! ”
Guo An smiled lightly and said, "Zhu Changshi, if those Mongolians use the right place, they are much better than Yan Shanwei." ”
"Oh?"
A trace of curiosity flashed in the eyes of Zhu Di and Zhu Fu.
"What is Guo Qing going to let these Mongols do?"
Guo An said: "Back to Your Highness, you can let these Mongolians go to the farm to raise pigs, sheep, and cattle...... These Mongols can also be allowed to enter the caravan under the palace of my Yan King, they have a lot of strength, they are good at work, and they know the horses best......
It also allows them to enter the ...... to calcine the cement
If there is a concrete house, they can also be involved...... Of course, if they want to farm, then my Yanwang Mansion has fields, and they can cultivate them at will......"
Zhu Di frowned slightly, he brought back these eight thousand Mongolian Tatars, but he didn't come to abuse these Mongols.
As for Zhu Fu, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Guo Changshi, these Mongolian Tatars are all wild and untamable, none of them can do the work you said."
Guo An looked confident, "Zhu Changshi, these Mongolian Tatars are all afraid of power and morality, as long as I, Yanshanwei, can calm them, they can't do it, they have to do it." ”
As he spoke, Guo An remembered something, so he said: "Moreover, among the 8,000 Mongols, half of them are weak women, give them land and houses.
When they ruled the land of my Central Plains before, didn't they adapt well?
How is it that if they are allowed to plant some land, they will not be able to? ”
Zhu Fu thoughtfully, "So ......"
Zhu Di suddenly coughed and said, "Zhu Qing, Guo Qing, we want to use these Mongols to form a fine cavalry, what do you think?" ”
Zhu Fu and Guo An were both subconsciously stunned.
Guo An asked tentatively, "Does Your Highness want to build those Mongols into cavalry?" ”
"What is Guo Qing's strategy?"
Zhu Di asked with some expectation.
Guo An shook his head slowly, "I'm disappointed Your Highness, Weichen doesn't understand military affairs, I'm afraid I can't give advice to Your Highness."
However, Wechen was a little worried, these Mongols were capricious, unless they were constantly subdued.
Otherwise, they may rebel again at the first opportunity. ”
Zhu Di asked again: "If they leave their families in Beiping Mansion, what if they dare to rebel and directly execute them all?" ”
"This ......"
Guo An sighed slightly, "Since Your Highness has this idea, Weichen can only support Your Highness." However, for the loyalty of these Mongols, Wechen will still be suspicious. ”
Zhu Di had a smile on his face, "Guo Qing, don't worry, we will send someone to take care of those Mongols." ”
As for Zhu Fu on the side, Zhu Di didn't ask again.
And Zhu Fu just opened his mouth depressedly and didn't say much.
Eight thousand Mongols, half of whom were their dependents, wanted to use these Mongols to form cavalry, at most three thousand troops.
In such a sensitive matter as forming an army, Guo An and Zhu Fu were both very knowledgeable and did not interfere.
In just half a month, Zhu Di seems to have been formed.
After hearing this, Guo An sighed slightly.
Wouldn't it be good to let these Mongols become caravan guards, serving as coachmen on weekdays and cavalry in war?
It's so conspicuous now?
……
A month after Guo An returned.
A businessman came to the door with great interest.
"Caomin Shen Zhuang has seen Guo Changshi!"
"Shen Zhuang?"
Seeing Shen Zhuang, Guo An couldn't help but be stunned, speaking of which, he hadn't seen this person from the Shen family for a long time.
"You came to look for the official this time, but the objects on the portraits that the official gave you have been found?"
Shen Zhuang said with admiration: "Guo Changshi is wise. ”
"What?"
Guo An stood up and stared at Shen Zhuang tightly, "You didn't lie to the official, you really found it?" ”
Shen Zhuang was taken aback, he didn't expect Guo An's reaction to be so big, and hurriedly said: "Back to Guo Changshi, the things on those portraits are very weird, the grass people just found one, but the grass people are not sure if that thing is what Guo Changshi needs, so they brought it for Guo Changshi to identify, and asked Guo Changshi to be excited......
Guo An said directly: "Take it out quickly." ”
"Yes!"
Shen Zhuang did not hesitate, and hurriedly put his hand into his sleeve, and then took out a small cloth bag from it.
After carefully opening the small cloth bag, several bright red objects with the length of dry fingers were revealed.
Xu was afraid that Guo An would not believe it, so Shen Zhuang hurriedly said: "Guo Changshi Mo wants to think that this thing is not like chili peppers, and the grass people heard from the old people in the family that when this thing just came out, it was the kind of appearance painted by Guo Changshi."
It's just that after this thing is dried, it will become like this! ”
"I know."
Guo An said a little excitedly.
He recognized at a glance that the object in Shen Zhuang's hand was a chili pepper.
Immediately, I took one, wiped it with my hand, carefully licked it with my tongue, and immediately inhaled.
It's so spicy!
Shen Zhuang was suddenly shocked, "Guo Changshi must not be, this pepper is poisonous!" ”
"Huh?"
Guo An was stunned, his face full of fright.
"What's poison?"
Shen Zhuang said: "Guo Changshi doesn't know that in Yunnan and other places, the more red and glamorous things are, the more poisonous they are, although this thing is overseas, it is also highly toxic.
After eating, it will sting people's skin and stomach, although it is poisonous, but it will also make people's lips red and swollen, and in severe cases, it will ...... It can also make people have diarrhea and even unbearable pain......"
Guo An couldn't help but look strange, what kind of poisoning is this?
However, Guo An's expression made Shen Zhuang misunderstand, and he explained: "Guo Changshi don't have to worry, although this thing has toxins, it won't be a big deal to eat a small amount. ”
