Chapter 332 Can’t Leave (Additional update for the leader who was once so serious)
After the meal, Liu’s maid took the child away, and Pei, Liu, and Shao sat across from each other to discuss matters.
Not long after Mrs. Liu gave birth to her child, her figure has not yet fully recovered. She will definitely not be able to leave at this time, at least not until after the Spring Festival.
Shao Xun wanted to interrupt several times, but Concubine Pei stopped him with her eyes.
After Mrs. Liu returned to Chang'an, as long as the matter was not exposed and nothing happened, she would still be the princess.
To put it harshly, in the eyes of others, you, Shao Taibai, are all negative, and you don’t have a daughter to worry about.
Ms. Liu occasionally spoke, her breath was a little weak, and her eye circles were a little red, but her attitude was firm.
This kind of woman looks easy to be bullied and easy to talk to, but once she makes a decision, it is difficult to change it. She is completely different from her weak appearance.
“This time the Huns invaded. Although they withdrew their troops, they sent cavalry to Huayin and Hongnong from time to time to plunder, ranging from dozens to hundreds of cavalry. If there was no large group of people to escort them, it would actually be impossible. It's hard to say it's safe." Shao Xun said, "Concubine Liu only has a hundred soldiers, right? It's a bit dangerous. If they are accompanied by servants, it will affect their morale even more. When Wang Dun went to Qingzhou for his appointment, he encountered bandits on the way. Princess Xiangcheng was abandoned by him, which shows the drama of banditry."
Concubine Pei frowned secretly.
Ms. Liu shook her head slightly, but she still wanted to go back.
When Shao Xun saw that the talks were about to collapse, he immediately said: "Let's wait until after the Spring Society Festival."
He did not mention that the Huns were likely to attack Guanzhong next year, worrying that if Mentioned it, Mrs. Liu ignored it and wanted to go back now.
Can Guanzhong be defended? He is not optimistic.
Sima Mo had left town and visited Yecheng and was not confident. Later, Sima Yue moved him to Xuchang and then to Chang'an.
According to Shao Xun's understanding, this person has made little achievements in politics in Guanzhong, and has not carried out professional construction of the army.
In other words, Guanzhong is still a military system based on conscription.
The problem is that the earliest batch of warriors with some combat effectiveness have long been used up in the Eight Kings Rebellion, and the rest are just new recruits.
He can be sure that in the same conscription, the soldiers of Guanzhong are not as good as the soldiers of the Xiongnu, or even worse than the gentry tribes.
At least, the Xiongnu soldiers have the tradition and experience of being mercenaries, and they often face tribal vendettas, and they can fight more than them.
Of course, the professional construction of the Guanzhong Army also has real difficulties, such as financial resources.
The silver gun army under Shao Xun did not completely get rid of agricultural production. When farmers were busy, they had to help work. The orchards who belonged to the army also needed to serve.
The Zhongwu Army, the Yi Cong Army and the like are more than half of the time to plant the land, similar to the soldiers under Shile and Wang Mi, and need to feed themselves by themselves -at least half.
But there are no more reality. There are so many places in Guanzhong. Searching for a few thousand or even 10,000 soldiers can always be raised, but Sima Mo does not do so, which is purely self -seeking.
But he didn't say this, it was even worse.
Pei Fei still knows how much. He nodded when he heard the words, and said to Shao Xun: "Then let the little ... the princess of Nanyang live in Liuhua Yuan. As soon as I leave, I am not too safe in Beijing."
"Liang Chen and Wei Fu have lived in the palace of the Malaysian market for a year. Will they have any thoughts?" Shao Xun asked again.
"The two of them -now they are doing buying and selling." Pei Fei sighed, which is indeed a worrying thing.
Liang Chen is a military officer, and may not think so much yet.
Wei Fu is the shogunate army sacrifice wine, and he was born in Jingzhao Wei. He was not so simple. He must have guessed what.
Before the Xiongnu went south to Luoyang, the two men sold the last batch of medicinal materials and skins they carried in the car, and the proceeds were used to support the royal palace's personnel expenses.
Later, people were sent to Guanzhong to report. Then the Huns invaded and the road was blocked. The second group of people who came to Luoyang returned halfway.
Now that the Huns have withdrawn, Chang'an will probably send people over again.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Shao Xun angrily.
Shao Xun was peeking at Mrs. Liu.
Ms. Liu stared at a certain point in the air in a daze, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Shao Xun turned around and asked, "When will the princess leave?"
"The first month of the year." She thought for a while and said.
"Why the first month?"
"This year the Silver Spear Army first fought in Yuzhou, then went to Nanyang to quell the chaos, and then went to Xingyang to fight. They have worked hard for a whole year, and they must be extremely exhausted." Concubine Pei explained: "Now everyone is looking forward to going home to reunite, meet their wives and children, and have a good year. If they are allowed to go on an expedition again, they will definitely be resentful, which will be detrimental to the great cause of the king."
Shao Xun was silent. Concubine Pei even considered this for him, which is really a bit insightful.
In his own backyard, currently only Yang Xianrong has some management ability. If Concubine Pei can also bring the Pei family to help manage a lot of things, he can transfer those people to Chenjun and Nanton , Xiangcheng counties were appointed as officials, and their control over these places was greatly increased.
Thinking of this, he looked at Concubine Liu again.
She was born in the Liu family of Pingyuan, a large family in Hebei. Forget it, it’s too far.
"Then let's leave after the Lantern Festival." Shao Xun made a decision and said.
Concubine Pei nodded slightly.
After talking for a while, he stood up and left.
Shao Xun subconsciously wanted to say something. Concubine Pei looked at him and shook her head gently.
Shao Xun understood.
Sima Yue’s body was still cold, so it was really not the right time.
He looked at Liu again.
Ms. Liu didn’t look at him and left directly.
The maidservant followed behind with the child in her arms, following step by step.
Holy shit, leave the kid behind. Shao Xun wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. If he went home suddenly, handed the child into his mother's hands, and said to her, "Mom, this is your granddaughter, help me take it with you first..." < br>
It seems a bit exaggerated. After the two women left, he lay stretched out on the couch without caring about his image at all, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Without the military pressure, some thoughts could no longer be suppressed. He wished he could secretly go back tonight and have a good sleep holding Yang Xianrong's gentle body.
"Oh! I'm so angry." Shao Xun sat up, patted his face, and said to himself: "The world is rough, you have to be ashamed. There is no woman in my heart, so I draw my sword to the gods of nature. Women It’s boring, it’s boring.”
Suddenly, his hand touched something, and when he took it out of his arms, he found two letters.
One was written by Mrs. Jing, and the other was written by Princess Xiangcheng Sima Mao.
The former lives in Guangchengze, and the latter is now in Luoyang.
Haha, Shao Xun put the letter away.
Am I that easy to chase? Licking the dog.
He knew that as the situation deteriorated and his fame and power grew, countless women wanted to crawl into his bed.
Of course they don’t like Shao Xun.
Picture of his dark skin?
Is he not taking a shower for a long time after going to war?
Picture his palms that are so rough that they can be sanded?
Is it because he has been hanging out with the low-level sergeants for a long time, and he makes vulgar remarks from time to time?
Neither.
What they want is to protect their lives and wealth, and what they want is a stable life.
The two brothers of the Jing family helped Shao Xun manage a group of campers with their own soldiers and guards. They also hinted that their sister was Chen Hou's aunt.
Don’t tell me, there are so many people who believe it. Those who originally coveted Jing's beauty and wealth couldn't help but retreat, including even Shao Xun's generals.
When Sima Mao passed Yique Pass, he was mistakenly believed to be related to Shao Xun. The woman deliberately did not clarify her purpose. It is not clear what her purpose was.
They are all taking advantage of him.
On the contrary, Mrs. Liu was not greedy for his benefits at all and wanted to return to her husband life and death, which made Shao Xun very interested.
People are just cheap.
If you don’t take the initiative to deliver it to your door, it will be difficult to get it.
After succeeding, I may be tired of it again...
After lying lazily for a while, Tang Jian came to report: "Your Majesty, Captain Wang is here."
"Why don't you come in and talk? Can you hide for a while or for the rest of your life?" Shao Xun's voice rang out from inside.
Tang Jian walked in slowly.
"Tell me, what happened back then?" Shao Xun asked.
"Junhou, back then Concubine Liu took her son and a few servants to live in the side courtyard and slept in the Junhou's study..." Tang Jian said.
"You are really a true martial artist!" Shao Xun laughed angrily: "What if it is a relative and female family member who comes to visit the Lu family? Have you never thought about it?"
"So what?" Tang Jian said bravely: "He Lun robbed Princess Lingshou. I heard that he even touched the princess's face. In front of the princess, he looted all the property and carried it home with his personal maid. Isn't that right? Are you okay? "
Good guy! Shao Xun secretly thought that he was right when he said that Tang Jian was an authentic martial artist. Compared with them, he often felt out of place because he was not perverted enough.
“It won’t happen again.” After a moment, he said.
"No." Tang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Make tea and invite the Taiwei." Shao Xun waved his hand.
After Tang Jian left, the soldiers brought in the tea sets.
Shao Xun got interested and decided to make tea by himself according to the "ancient method".
The tea tripod is made of stone and beautifully made. It was given to him by He Lun. It is said to be the thing that Princess Lingshou loves - before he knew it, he was at the top of the food chain. He Lun robbed the princess. You gave him a gift after you were done, what a shame!
What the hell, just tell me whether this tea tripod is good or not.
"Sit and drink the cool water, watch the dust frying, come on." The charcoal burned quietly, and the water in the cauldron boiled for the first time. Shao Xun picked up the collected salt and pepper and put it down again. Finally, I threw a few in, and then scooped up a ladle of water.
Well, this is the legendary method of raising the soup to stop it from boiling.
But soon, the water in the cauldron boiled for the second time. Shao Xun took out the crushed tea foam from the box, put it into the cauldron, and slowly stirred it to let the tea foam sink into the water.
"Bi Chenxia's feet are broken, and the fragrance is as light as milk flowers." Shao Xun recited the poem with great interest, and poured the tea he just scooped up into the third boiling stone cauldron. This step said "education" magnificent".
At this point, the tea soup is ready.
Not too many weird things are added, although the taste is still a bit strange.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Your Majesty is much more elegant." Laughter sounded at the door.
Shao Xun, who was concentrating on sharing tea, also smiled when he saw it and said: "Please come in, Taiwei. I won't get up. I am anxious to make tea for Taiwei."
" It doesn't matter." When did the scholars of the Wei and Jin Dynasties talk about so many red tapes? Wang Yan took off his shoes, walked to the couch, sat cross-legged, and said: "The king can both write poetry and fight. Is it a gift from heaven?"< br>
“I am not a human being, but a Taibai star spirit, from a top family in the world.” Shao Xun joked.
Wang Yan did not laugh.
Sitting there, he took a bowl of tea soup, blew on it, took a sip, and said: "The tea brewed this way has a unique flavor."
"Then drink more. ." Shao Xun laughed.
Wang Yan put down the tea bowl, took out a memorandum from his arms, handed it to Shao Xun, and said: "Since Taibai is a man in heaven, he might as well read the articles on earth."
Shao Xun took it curiously, opened it, and was a little surprised.
This is a memorial from Zhou Fu, the governor of Yangzhou, asking the emperor to move the capital to Shouchun!
"The Emperor cannot leave!" Shao Xun blurted out.
