Chapter 779 Chapter 779: Wu Xian asks for help (Part 1) [Ask for monthly votes]
The old ministers of the Xin Kingdom ate this celebration banquet absent-mindedly.
Luan Cheng, who was following Luan Xin, couldn't eat either.
“The food is not to your liking?”
Luan Xin keenly noticed something strange about his nephew.
Luan Cheng's face seemed troubled, because most of the people here were literate scholars/valiant warriors with excellent ears, and whispering was no different from shouting. If you want to know what you are saying, you will also [transmit the message into the secret] and have a private chat to avoid embarrassment.
Luan Xin asked: "When did you become so unhappy?"
Just say what you have!
No one would care about him if he said he was wrong.
Luan Cheng was about to [transmit the sound into the secret], but was dumbfounded for the next moment.
His uncle refused to join the small group for private chat.
Luan Cheng was on pins and needles for a moment, squirming his buttocks on the mat, and finally said: "Uncle, Shen Nujun is really as popular as the rumors. My nephew has admired her for a long time, and today I can see her in person. , I was a little nervous for a while.”
The old ministers of the Xin Kingdom seemed to have their heads down and just eat, but in fact they secretly paid attention to the conversation between Luan’s uncle and nephew, and their hearts tightened.
"There is no need to be nervous, the Lord is the kindest person."
The seemingly calm eyes were filled with approval.
My nephew is still discerning.
Seeing that my uncle did not reprimand or correct the title "Shen Nujun", he acquiesced that the title was correct. Luan Cheng and all the old officials of the Xin Kingdom were in even more complicated moods - the lady sitting at the top, Lord Shen, was actually a real girl?
Xie Qi looked at the faces that were about to speak but were hesitant to speak, and he sighed a lot. His reaction to learning the truth was not much better than theirs. Just as he was about to grab a chopstick to grill the meat, Danfu Wen's heart trembled. Xie Qi accepted Yan Ling by lowering his eyes.
A colleague who I once had a good relationship with [transmitted the message into the secret].
Former colleague: [Shizang, did you know she is a woman? 】
Xie Qi replied in a Wen Qi tone: [I know. 】
The former colleagues fell into a long silence.
Xie Qi smiled and said: [What are you worried about? 】
The former colleague spit out four words: [Fuck Si Chen. 】
As everyone knows, as soon as he said these words, there were many pairs of eyes on him, either brightly or covertly, but he was completely unaware.
A former colleague said: [This is an unprecedented sign! 】
When a strange sign appears, it must be ominous!
Xie Qi secretly wiped his cold sweat and said: [Why do you want to do so much? In terms of omens, can anyone be more monstrous than Zheng Qiao? Come on, don't worry about it. Your life was saved by others. You sit in their place and spread these deceptive words... It is light to repay kindness with hatred. If you can't accept it, you can continue to live in seclusion and indulge in the mountains and rivers. 】
When Zheng Qiao was in power, he would do whatever he wanted to do.
Begging for life under Zheng Qiao, if she says something that she shouldn't say, she won't know how she will die; if she is under the tent of Lord Shen Jun, she will probably be too lazy to pay attention to the white-skinned scholar's innocent moans, and there will be no reason. Risk of conviction. This alone should be a blessing.
After ending a private chat, there is another private chat.
Xie Qi’s good temper has to be dealt with one by one.
Summary center, one sentence -
Nvjiao were once the masters of all countries, so what about women?
Those who are interested in pursuing a career will take the opportunity to plan carefully, and those who cannot accept it will continue to stay at home and lie down. This is not a matter of force.
One of his former colleagues asked him: [What does Shizang mean by this? Are you prepared to assist this female monarch wholeheartedly? 】
【Natural. 】Xie Qi generously admitted, and said, 【The eldest daughter and the second daughter in the family worship Ning Tunan as their teacher, and the younger daughter also found a famous teacher to lead the way. You can't even recognize Ning Tunan, can you? We are all still classmates. Destined to have no children in this life, the Xie family will have to rely on their three daughters to support their family. Hey, three! My three daughters all have at least above-average qualifications...]
If it wasn't allowed, I would have wanted to pat my thigh.
The proportion of good seedlings with cultivation qualifications is very low!
Former colleagues: [……]
Just because parents are qualified does not necessarily mean that their children will be. The advantage of a large family lies in inheritance and foundation. Each family has a large collection of spiritual books. In addition, the cultivation experience left by the ancestors of the family can make qualified members of the family Children should avoid detours. In addition, their network of contacts is extremely wide, and by exchanging resources, they can easily obtain the teaching resources that ordinary people dream of.
Of course, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.
If the family cannot produce a qualified member of the family, life will be difficult. In order to keep the family from falling, many aristocratic families either have more children, even sons, or they look for one or two qualified children from the private sector and send them to the unqualified heirs. The two grow up together and use their feelings and interests as their Use chips to make the other party willing to be your right hand.
Being a boy or a girl, having qualifications or not, these are beyond human control. Daughters are the link between marriage, exchange of benefits, and maintenance of in-law relationships. When the family is at its peak, they are the icing on the cake; when the family is in decline, they are used to delay its decline.
The worst thing is to fall into Luan's situation. Not to mention that there are very few people in the main lineage, the only trace of blood is the daughter, the head of the family and the mistress died young. The other branch tribesmen will pounce on you like beasts that smell blood and eat them up. Luan Nujun was lucky. She made a decisive decision and chose a man named Luan Xin who had good enough qualifications to adopt her, thus avoiding being wiped out.
Xie Qi's wife was pregnant with three children, and they, the former colleagues, mentioned him occasionally when they got together, and they all sweated for him. Among them, there are also those who have good friendships and have no shortage of sons. They once had the idea of giving a gift to the adoptive family - the family property is fixed, and the majority will be given to the eldest son, and the other sons will receive limited shares. Rather than losing the big tail, it is better to hand it over to thank you for a better future.
Xie Qi naturally did not agree. In addition, there was Zheng Qiao, a high-voltage manufacturing machine, on top of his head. The Xie clan members who wanted to be exterminated did not reach out to Xie Qi for the time being. Who would have known that Xie Qi would actually launch a desperate counterattack - three of them!
How many blind boxes do I have to open to get it together? ? ?
Listening to Xie Qi’s triumphant tone, the qualifications of the three golden flowers are definitely better than Xie Qi’s, and the faces of his colleagues were sour and twisted!
No wonder he didn’t hesitate at all and accepted it readily.
Co-authoring takes such a huge advantage!
Several colleagues stared at the food on the dining table.
If their family’s daughter of the right age can produce three qualified seedlings in one go, they will gladly accept it! If you are worried about the insecurity when it comes to asking your daughter to marry someone else, you can choose a few outstanding men to prevent the third generation from returning to the family line.
The son-in-law is restless in the capital, so deal with it secretly.
A few people glanced at Luan Cheng in unison.
We can't cause farce like Luan's to make people laugh.
Luan Xin: "..."
Oh, these people are using Luan as a stone to cross the river, right?
On the surface, the celebration banquet is lively and lively, celebrating the hard-won achievements; secretly, they are transformed into melon fields, and all kinds of gossip cannot be tolerated. Specifically, it refers to the private chats between Shen Tang and the old ministers of the Xin Kingdom. The content gradually transitioned from "Shen Nvjun is a strange sign" and "Female Chicken Si Chen" to the female junior members of the clan. Qualifications can be roughly assessed as soon as you are born.
In the past, women could not practice cultivation, and the male heir they gave birth to could open a blind box, and the daughter did not even have any expectations. Even if they knew they had the qualifications, they could only lament why they were not born as men, or lament why the qualifications were not found in their brothers.
Now the situation is different again.
Shen Jun, who was sitting at the top, had obviously mastered the secret of female cultivation. His previous understanding was shattered by the hard facts.
Those who are not short of heirs are not too cold about it. After all, the prejudice against daughters has been around for a long time and suddenly reversed, and their subconscious minds are also resisting. Those who are jealous of the lack of heirs have different ideas because they have advantages and possibilities. Picture, it is easy to accept.
Shen Tang will not interfere in any way.
Firstly, these are not her courtiers, and no matter how long her hands are, she cannot interfere in each other's family affairs; secondly, it is not a good thing for the family to be too rich. It is true that getting their investment can save a lot of trouble, but Shen Tang wants them to lower their profile and beg him, instead of begging them with a shy face. They are soft-mouthed and short-handed when taking advantage of others. If you rely too much on them, you will be controlled by others.
If you want to move them someday, it won't be easy. Shen Tang has his own rules in mind regarding the choice.
Following the content of their conversation, Shen Tang also learned a lot about their identities, family backgrounds, and connections. Overall, this celebration banquet was more rewarding than expected.
Because Cui Xiao is a newcomer, Shen Tang has paid more attention to him in the past two days and basically takes him with him wherever he goes. Firstly, I can get to know Cui Xiao better, and secondly, it also allows Cui Xiao to have more contact with her team. This move inevitably aroused Gu Chi's harsh words again.
Gu Chi said thoughtfully: [Like! It’s so similar! I heard that every new person who comes to the inner court will be pampered for a while. 】
Shen Tang: [...]
Because of Gu Chi, she looked at Cui Xiao wrongly.
On the third day of the celebration banquet, Shen Tang was still worried about medicinal materials.
Now that she has Chaoliguan as a natural barrier, she is less stressed about fighting. What worries her most right now is the epidemic in Yanzhou.
These days, the flood has completely receded.
The soldiers and horses under Shen Tang's tent are proficient in the demolition and reconstruction of various buildings. They are also good at dredging rivers and reinforcing dams. Once the situation in Yanzhou stabilizes, they can send people out to get started. Only the epidemic made her more troublesome. She was really short of medicinal materials!
With one more day of delay, countless patients would be killed by the epidemic, and Shen Tang did not reserve enough medicinal materials.
In the past, I could exchange medicinal materials with Zhang He, but now——
The two families have fallen out, and there must be a battle!
When she told the newcomer Cui Xiao about the difficulty, Cui Xiao's reaction was a little strange: "My lord, please forgive me for being blunt, but the most important thing at the moment is to deal with Huang Lie and others, not to rescue the victims."
If we don’t solve the root causes and stabilize the situation everywhere, no matter how hard we try, we will be easily destroyed by a war.
Shen Tang sighed: "Why don't I know?"
But the problem is that she has already absorbed the refugees and transferred them in batches to Chaoli Pass, which was relatively less affected by the disaster.
If we ignore it, even if Shen Tang takes over places like Yanzhou and Qianzhou in the future, it will not work if there are only a few living people.
In addition, she has another consideration.
"...All the members of the Dragon Slaying Bureau allied forces fought this war with their own money. How much food is there? If we don't move all these people away, Huang Xiguang and the others will be forced to attack them after they have lost all their food and grass." I don’t know where to get military supplies.”
Because of more than two hundred years of melee, the moral bottom line has been breached in countless ways. There was a psychological burden at first, but once there were many examples, it became even more justified to fall.
The other forces in the Dragon Slaying Bureau are more or less burdened by their family background, so they have to be shameless and will not do this until they get to that point, but Huang Xiguang is different. He is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes.
Shen Tang said softly: "If I want to reshape order, I must set an example and let everyone in the world know what order is."
Even if her persistence will make simple things complicated .
Cui Xiao, who was behind him, did not respond. Shen Tang laughed at himself and said, "It sounds very indecisive, right?"
Cui Xiao finally responded.
“No, absolutely not.”
Compared with depravity and indulgence, it is too difficult to stick to one’s heart.
Precisely because of the difficulty, we can see the determination of the Lord to establish order. This made Cui Xiao feel as if he had found a treasure. If his expectations for Shen Tang were only seven points, then the latter's performance made him see a very high possibility.
However, the ideal is full but the reality is cruel.
Medical materials, a scarce strategic resource, have very few private reserves and are mostly concentrated in the treasuries of various families, such as the group of old officials of the Xin Kingdom. They were gathered by Zheng Qiao to Qianzhou as hostages. Most of the family resources were in their ancestral hometown and were relatively well preserved.
Shen Tang also came up with this idea.
Cui Xiao said: "It's okay to deal with them, but the master still needs to remember the lessons learned from Wu Gong."
Every bargaining chip obtained from them is invisible. An IOU must be repaid with interest in the future.
Shen Tang said: "This is natural."
I don't know if it was Wu Xian who couldn't help but muttered. As soon as he mentioned this person, there was a troop of troops approaching outside Liguan City.
Shen Tang did not frown.
“How many people?”
“Thirty-four people!”
So few people?
Shen Tang asked again: "Which flag is it?"
"Tianhai Wu family!"
The city wall's rotating guards are Zhao Wei and Xu Quan. Knowing the origin of the other party, he waved his hand to signal the hidden arrows from the arrow tower to be put down. He ordered someone to detain the person and tell the lord the news without stopping. Gu Ziyi was destroyed, and only Tianhai Wu Xian was left in the Dragon Slaying Bureau who had a good relationship with the lord. This may be your only ally!
Shen Tang summoned the leader of this team.
The leader was an unfamiliar face.
When the other party saw Shen Tang in a blouse, he was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, clasped his fists and said, "I've seen Mr. Shen."
Shen Tang said, "Brother Zhaode, can you still return the favor? Good? ”
Looking at the status of the messenger, it’s not very good.
This group of people broke out. There were more than a hundred people at the beginning, but by the time they were killed, less than 40% were left...
The messenger took out a letter from his arms and gave it to Shen Tang.
Shen Tang opened it and read ten lines at a glance.
Judging from the content of the letter, Wu Xian's situation is not too bad. He is like a greedy snake, eating away at several small forces along the way. If you are unlucky enough to meet Huang Lie, you can still fight him.
However, if Huang Lie can't stand him, he will be intimidating.
The battle report was received at the front line, and Zhang He and Huang Lie reached an alliance.
It was quite embarrassing for Wu Xianruo to be flanked by these two men.
To increase your chance of survival, forming an alliance is the best option. He sent news to both Shen Tang and Gu Ziyi, but when he heard that Gu Ziyi had been killed, his only hope rested on Shen Tang.
Shen Tang looked at the letter and lowered his eyes in deep thought.
The messenger lamented: "Shen Jun, do you know that your lips are dead and your teeth are cold?"
She turned the letter upside down on the table and spoke sternly: "Shen has a deep love for Zhaode's brother Tangdi, and he is loved by him. Everyone knows that he has helped a lot. Now that Brother Zhaode is in trouble, how can he be ungrateful?"
