Not long after Su Pingjiang was sent away, Xiao Xiao arrived. The person who knew Xiao Xiao best in the world was He Ran. As expected, she took the initiative to avoid Su Pingjiang's honor guard after seeing it.
Xiao Xiao's low profile was in sharp contrast to Su Pingjiang's high profile. When she and Xiaoling arrived at the gate of Yixinyuan, the people inside didn't know the letter yet.
Xiaoling seemed more excited than Xiao Xiao. When she saw Xiaozhu in the garden from a distance, she shouted loudly: "Sister Xiaozhu, I'm here."
The garden that had just calmed down became lively again due to this shout, and the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than when Su Pingjiang was received.
Entering the lobby, Ming Qin Cha Duo and Yun Shang were closely accompanying each other. Su Xiyao, Nuan Yu, and Zhu Yin even skipped greetings. They joked and joked with each other, and Xiao Ling had the highest voice. , Xiaozhu and the others ignored their duties of serving, and gathered around chatting and being affectionate in endless ways.
He Ran knew that it was not Xiao Xiao's turn to speak at this time, so he joined the maid to entertain Xiao Ling.
After a while of intimacy, Huang Juan stepped forward and wanted to pay homage as a monarch and a minister. Xiao Xiao hurriedly stopped her and just said the courtesy of sisters. Both of them are one of the few military heroines in the world. They were famous for each other in the past. Now they met. A feeling of sympathy suddenly arose. Xiao Xiao was already aware of her condition and had great sympathy, so he was particularly kind to her.
Zhuyin called to He Ran at this moment: "Military advisor, why don't you come over to see Wang Jia? You are both in the army, how come you are not as good as an inspector?"
Before He Ran could say anything, Huang Wei stopped and looked at Zhuyin sideways and said, "What do you mean, Master Zhongshu Ling? I know that my official position is humble, but you don't need to be so taunting me."
When Xiao Xiao heard this, he was startled at first, then he covered his mouth and smiled, and said: "It turns out that Sister Juer is also unforgiving. This garden will never be inhabitable in the future. It is difficult to find such a lively place in the world."
He Ran came over and said: "The most difficult women in the world are all gathered here, and among them Yin'er and you, sister Guer, are the most important. You didn't notice it at first, but when it comes to the dirty words on her lips, she But it’s even worse than Yin’er.”
Zhuyin laughed and spat: "What kind of husband is what kind of wife? None of us have been strict and propriety before. Even Sister Xiyao was led by you to be arrogant, let alone us."
"Why am I acting so recklessly? Tell me clearly." Su Xiyao's bright eyes widened.
Mrs. Nuanyu supported Zhuyin and said: "Yin'er, tell me, ask her what she is doing now, which one is polite. She has lost her moral character. We are afraid of her."
Su Xiyao was angry and funny. She turned to Mrs. Nuan Yu and said, "You still have the nerve to let her ask me, don't you think about what you have done."
Xiao Xiao was a little stupid. The changes of these people were so rapid. It was unimaginable that these famous beauties would behave like this. I really don’t know what this garden will be like in the end. .
Huang Wei snorted at this time and said: "Please save yourselves. I'm ashamed of you. Can we still practice etiquette in this garden?"
Mrs. Nuanyu spat: "Bah, you are so embarrassed to say it. You can count it on your fingers. If you live in the Military Advisor's Mansion, you will have more time in the garden, or if you live in your own house, you will have more time to talk about yourself." Just like an unrelated person, this garden was much better before you came, and it wasn't all your fault."
Zhuyin nodded solemnly and said: "I agree with this. If my sister doesn't tell me, I haven't thought of it yet. If you think about it carefully, it turns out to be true."
Xiao Xiao felt dizzy. If there were only a few people in the quarrel before, and the context could be seen, now it is completely a chaotic scene. There is no distinction between friend and foe. Anyone caught will be attacked in groups.
Yun Shang interjected: "Stop bickering. Sister Xiao'er has come a long way. It's time to talk to her. Why don't you keep arguing and put her aside?"
He Ran said: "Listen, you all listen, she is recognized as the least polite and unsophisticated person, but now she has become the most polite."
All the girls covered their mouths and laughed. Yun Shang felt embarrassed and said with a red face: "That's how it should be. I was wrong again."
Mingqin Chaduo smiled and said: "Silly sister, what you said is right, but it is not wrong for them to be like this. This is how they treat Wang Jia as a good sister from the bottom of their hearts, and treating her in a polite manner does not show their true feelings. "
Zhuyin pointed at Yun Shang with a smile and said, "You idiot, you are the one who has nothing to do with this garden. No matter how messy it is, you are the only one who can take care of yourself."
Yun Shang smiled sheepishly and said, "I am stupid and stupid. How can I compare with you? I can't keep up with what you are saying even if I listen to you."
Although Mingqin Chaduo had been enjoying himself on the sidelines, the busier it became, the less lively it became. She shouted to Lu Sheng'er, who was joking with the little girls, "Sheng'er, come here quickly."
Green Sheng'er glanced this way and said, "I don't care about them. Those two people in charge of politics, the one who uses divination to fool people, and the one who hurts people as soon as he opens his mouth are not good people."
After scolding four people in one sentence, He Ran said to Huang Wei without knowing what was going on: "You are the one who hurts others when you open your mouth."
"You're talking nonsense." Huang Juan scolded He Ran and turned to Green Rope with aggrievedness, "Little Rope, you are really heartless. When have I ever harmed you?"
Lu Sheng'er chuckled and said, "You haven't said anything good in your mouth. Even the good words don't taste good once you say them. You just don't realize it."
The scolded ones were preparing to work together to defeat Green Sheng'er. Yingcao suddenly walked in. After meeting everyone, he handed a letter to He Ran. She was shy by nature. Such a lively scene would not linger for a moment. Yes, he smiled at everyone and bowed before leaving.
He Ran knew that the message Yingcao personally sent must be an emergency, so he said: "I'll go first, don't let the little rope go."
When he came to the side hall, he opened the letter and read it, frowning slightly, and then his body started to sway slightly.
After a while, Zhuyin and Xiao Xiao arrived hand in hand. Naturally, they were concerned about military matters.
"What's the matter?" Zhuyin asked.
He Ran pointed to the notes on the cases and said: "When Shi Lang Fei Ge sent a message, he noticed that Kang State and Liu State seemed to have increased their troops at the border."
Zhuyin picked up the note, read it, and then handed it to Xiao Xiao.
After Xiao Xiao saw it, he frowned and said, "Do you think these two countries will join forces to deal with us?"
Zhuyin said: "It's not just these two countries that want to join forces. I'm afraid Lin Guo and Xiping will also be involved. He and I have already had this speculation."
Xiao Xiao was secretly surprised and asked: "Why."
He Ran said briefly: "New Deal."
Zhuyin explained: "He has long expected that the world will be divided into two camps in the future, one is those who implement the New Deal, and the other is not the New Deal. These kings who do not follow the New Deal will realize the threat of the New Deal to their power. Zi Once the people understand the New Deal, they will definitely be dissatisfied with the current rule. This truth is very simple, but we did not expect it to come so soon."
Xiao Xiao nodded and said with a worried look on his face: "If this is really the case, it will be difficult for us to deal with it. Have you thought of any countermeasures?"
Zhuyin shook his head and said: "It came too fast. We thought we could slowly figure it out and try to win over Liu Guo first, but we haven't planned it carefully yet."
He Ran saw that they were worried and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that they would suffer like this. Xiping may not be involved. Bailifu is not a far-sighted person. Liuguo is putting self-protection first at the moment. I forgive them and they don't dare." Easily becoming our enemy, the country of Lin..." At this point, He Ran showed a contemptuous smile, "I guess Mo Ju is putting pressure on me. They are not ready to go to war, they are just pretending. , Humph, even if a war really breaks out, what do I have to fear, "Anyone who dares to disturb my peace and purity will be punished by me." This is what I said when the fire was raging in front of the Zangxian Valley, and we joined hands to fight. The two countries that came, Zhao and Shun, have now been destroyed. Anyone who dares to think of using troops to change the country should first weigh his own weight."
The strong self-confidence conveyed invisibly made the two women feel something in their hearts. They looked at each other and unconsciously felt a lot calmer.
He Ran told Xiaozhu to go to the study to get something, and also ordered someone to call Zhong Zong into the garden to wait for his orders.
After a while, Xiaozhu took the sickle for harvesting the Tianen Fruit and handed it to He Ran.
Xiao Xiao took it and tested the edge with her hand, and said: "This is the first time I have seen such a well-made cutting sickle. Why is there still a word on it?" She looked closely and saw that the words engraved on it were "Melting the sword into a sickle for eternity and eternal peace". Eight words.
He Ran said: "I found this cutting sickle to be carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen. It is made of hundred-refined refined iron, and its quality is even better than that of the finest swords."
Xiao Xiao asked in confusion: "What is the purpose of building this?"
He Ran called Zhong Zong in, and then explained to Xiao Xiao: "Give it to Qi Min, along with my horse, Taofeng, to show Yi Guo's intention to stop the war. I wanted to wait for Dong Tao to come down, but I can't wait any longer. That's it." After saying that, he told Zhong An: "Put this cutting sickle in a brocade box. You have to go to Kang State as an envoy. You will set off tomorrow. Come to me in the evening to get a letter. I will give you detailed instructions. , let’s get ready.”
After Zhong Min left, He Ran asked Xiao Xiao: "Hurry up and think of a good place for me. It's near the northeastern border. I had an appointment with Qi Min the last time I met him. I have to choose a place to meet him in the future. I I need to write this in the letter and ask her to get together next spring."
Zhuyin said: "You are trying to use a beauty trick. You two were already at odds last time. I don't think it may work. It's hard to say whether she will go to the date or not."
He Ran sighed softly and said: "I am doing this for her own good. How can we enjoy the joy of fighting for hegemony in the world? The spread of the New Deal and the opening up of people's wisdom are not a matter of time. As long as both parties are controlled, she will be the winner throughout her life." She won't be affected too much. Once the war starts, she won't have a good life. I have to explain some things to her. Previously, all parties were fighting for hegemony. If you don't fight others, others will fight you. But under the New Deal, people's hearts are at peace, and with the return of power to the people, Yi State is no longer a threat to other countries. As long as others do not invade, Yi State will not use troops abroad."
Xiao Xiao and Zhuyin both nodded silently.
He Ran calmly pointed to the papers and pens on the cases, and said to the two of them: "I have wronged Wang Jia and Zhongshu Ling. I want one to be the book boy to study ink, and the other to be the ghostwriter of the case. I want to spread the word to all parties." News so that they can be prepared."
Xiao Xiao sat next to him, picked up the ink stick and began to grind it.
Zhuyin sat opposite him, holding a pen in hand and saying, "Please give me the military advisor's instructions."
He Ran smiled slightly, thought for a while, and first wrote to Shilang to talk about his views on the matter, and then wrote to King Fan to inform him of the changes that might happen in the future, so that he would have an idea; then he wrote to Chuangtong
and Wang Jin and others, asking them to step up preparations for war while assisting their respective princes in governing the country. Finally, he notified Xu Tong and asked him to step up training of new soldiers. In half a year, he will have at least 60,000 available soldiers. Once the war starts, he will execute
His strategy was not to reinforce, but to lead Fan, Xiang, Qi's allied forces and his headquarters, totaling more than 100,000 troops, to rapidly attack Kang State from the northeast. His side was the main battlefield, and Shilang's western front would rely on the current situation.
He had the strength to use the pass to fight and hold back the enemy. Even if the enemy reached Ringing Bell City, he did not need to return to rescue the army and ensured that his troops could enter Dechang.
As for Xiangguo and Qiguo, He Ran felt that there was no need to announce it at this time. It would not be too late to tell them when the war really started.
After writing these letters, He Ran blinked and thought for a while, and said to Zhuyin: "Add a line to the letter to Chuangtong that he will go to the country as an envoy of the king, and the talisman, certificate of credentials, etc.
The things you need will be delivered on a day-to-day basis. Please write this letter of credence to King Liu on behalf of Pingjiang. Do you know how to write it?"
Zhuyin looked at him with a smile in his eyes and said, "Tell me about the current situation and elaborate on the benefits of the New Deal to the country."
He Ran shook his head and said: "Also, the most important thing is to talk about the comfort of my life in a king's tone, and tell him our two camps by the way, so that he understands that as long as he stays in the country to implement the New Deal, then
Yi Guo will be their strong ally who will never betray them. I asked him to stay with Ping Jiang at the border. If he is willing to come, I will personally make the case. Let Chuang Tong know the contents of the credential. He will know what to do after reading it.
Lobbying to keep the king."
After giving instructions, He Ran didn't even read the letters written by Zhuyin. He picked up Xiao Xiao and said, "Let's go. Just ask Xiaolai to come and serve. Wang Jia has no reason to be a book boy for Zhongshu Ling."
Xiao Xiao thought that Zhuyin would scold He Ran a few words, but he didn't expect Zhuyin to act like he didn't hear him and was just meditating with his pen in hand.
The sudden military report did not affect the joyful atmosphere in Yixinyuan. Zhuyin and Xiao Xiao had full confidence in He Ran's ability to discern the situation, because he relied on this insight to skillfully mobilize the forces of all parties.
, it took a lot of tossing back and forth to bring Yi Guo to this point. If you don’t believe him, who else can you believe? So the two of them calmly concealed the news about the frontier fortress from everyone. Su Xiyao and others were used to urgent letters. As long as they
He Ran didn't mention Li Gu, so they didn't care much.
During the night banquet, Yun Shang's newly composed "Shang Le" pushed the atmosphere to a climax. The music touched the hearts of everyone, and everyone's hearts were filled with joy and peace. Several little girls were so moved by the tune that they couldn't help but dance.
Get up.
While they were drunk, Huang Juan provoked Zhuyin with her words again, and the quarrel broke out again. This time, Lu Sheng'er, Xiao Lai and others also joined the camp to denounce Huang Juan. Mrs. Nuanyu was afraid of Huang Juan
The excitement was gone, with guns and sticks coming to help from time to time. Su Xiyao and Nuanyu had the same idea. In the midst of the commotion, she suddenly noticed that He Ran was no longer in the house. She hurriedly called Xiaozhu secretly to ask,
Xiaozhu said he had just gone out after taking a bottle of wine.
Su Xiyao thought for a moment, then secretly put on her mink fur and left the lobby. At this time, the lights in Yixin Garden were as bright as day, so she didn't need to carry a lantern, so she walked straight towards the back garden.
Arriving at the door of the small ancestral hall, I heard He Ran's voice.
"...I feel that my life has not been in vain. God has been so kind to me. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Xiao He, you can never imagine how lively it is in the lobby right now. You are the most lively person. If It would be great if you were here. Let's drink a few bottles. I have never forgotten the matter of avenging you. A few days ago, two dead soldiers were sent to Xiping to assassinate Ji Gong. But if it fails this time, I may have to After procrastinating for a while, I really have no other choice in this situation, but you should know my heart. I will never give up until Ji Gong dies.
"I really want to know your current situation. Are you reincarnated, are you still like me, or are you just a happy ghost? You don't give me a dream. No matter what, your and Lan'er's spiritual status are still there. Here, you two should take care of each other. When I was offering sacrifices to the fallen soldiers a few days ago, I told them to take good care of you."
Su Xiyao's eyes turned slightly red after hearing this. He Ran's heartfelt love for Xiao He was really touching.
"Sister and Xiaozhu are both very good. What you were most worried about during your lifetime was that your sister would be wronged in the future. You even turned against me for being the wife of Yin'er. It's also a pity in my heart that I can't give my sister a title. But you If there is a spirit, you should have seen it. My sister is very happy now. I will not let her suffer the slightest injustice in my life. My heart for her will be the same as when I was at Guiyue Villa, and it will never change forever. Your voice Sister Er, they always say that I am partial, do you think I can be impartial? You must understand the reason. Well, I have to go back, otherwise they should look for me. The wine is here. You and Laner drink it. Drink it. Don't run around drinking wine, it's too cold, be careful of getting cold, Lan'er, please take care of her for me."
When He Ran came out, he suddenly found Su Xiyao leaning against the wall, with crystal tears hanging on her pretty face that glowed under the moonlight.
"You saw it when I came out."
Su Xiyao shook her head.
He Ran wiped the tears on her face with pity, and couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead. Then he pulled up the big cloak around him and wrapped her in. He said softly: "It's too cold, so be careful." Feng Han, let’s go back.”

ps: The debt has finally been paid off, and the story can end here. The unfinished parts are left to everyone’s imagination. I am currently conceiving a novel similar to the plot of a Chinese fairy tale. I want to write a story about a flower demon and a fox girl, but the writing style is not good. What changes have there been? It’s still mainly light-hearted and funny, but I don’t want to post it in 17k. The ID “Zhe Hua Bu Yu” is no longer used due to contractual restrictions. I will announce it here and in the group when I start writing, so I like this book. Friends, please do not take this book off the shelves for the time being. QQ group number: 74574301
I once again apologize to my friends who have suffered from the slow update of this book. To be honest, if the results were better, I would not update so slowly. I wanted to give up several times. I hope that the next book will be loved by everyone. Full support ^_^
