After Shi Lang left, almost all the elites of the Yi Kingdom secretly gathered towards the Axe Duan Gorge. This time they really sent out the entire nation's troops.
If the previous strategy was used to connect the states, He Ran still had some concerns about the use of troops. He was afraid that the Zhao State would send troops to attack the bell city after seeing the intentions of the Yi State. Now with Xiao Xiao's strategy, there is no need to worry, the Yi State
Fight desperately against Shun Guo. In this case, if Zhao Min stabs Yi Guo from behind, even the people of Zhao will be heartbroken, and Zhao Min will no longer have to mess around in front of the princes of the world. Even if Zhao Min is crazy and insists on doing this,
The Yi State now has strategic depth, and the troops defending the city in the newly acquired land are almost fully trained. The small number of troops Zhao currently has cannot pose much of a threat, and the situation will not be so bad that it is irreparable.
Walking on Pingcheng Street accompanied by Cheng Shou Xiyu, He Ran felt no anxiety at this moment.
The people of Pingcheng had great love for this military advisor who implemented the New Deal. They crowded the streets to congratulate him, and the eyes of the people who crowded around were filled with excitement and respect.
"Now I have admiration for the military advisor. In my whole life, I have never seen the people love an official so much." Xi Yu sighed.
He Ran smiled and waved his hand and said: "This is all your credit. Although the New Deal is of great benefit to the people, if the officials in power themselves are not honest, the New Deal will be distorted no matter how good it is. It is precisely because the old man truly loves the people and fully embodies the key points of the New Deal."
Only when I show my full potential will Baixin put this gratitude on me."
"Well, to be honest with the military advisor, I have always been worried about this. I was afraid that the military advisor's implementation of the New Deal was a temporary move to win people's hearts. When the overall situation is stable, the New Deal will be slowly withdrawn. Now it seems that I am worrying too much. I'm so old.
Teach your children not to judge the heart of a gentleman with a villain's heart, hahaha, I don't want to grow old but I do this kind of thing." Xiyu laughed at himself, with happiness in his laughter.
He Ran looked at him with a smile and said: "The overall situation is just initially stable. The New Deal was implemented here earlier. In some places, riots to resist the New Deal still occur from time to time. Isn't it too early for the old gentleman to say this? What if I really
They have taken back the New Deal.”
Xiyu stroked his beard and said: "The military advisor is joking. How can I not see this? The New Deal has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in many places. If the military advisor wants to take back the New Deal in the future, the chaos will definitely be worse than before the implementation of the New Deal. I dare
It is said that all the people will rebel, and the military advisor is a wise man, so how can he do such a thing?"
He Ran burst out laughing and said: "The New Deal is better than a hundred thousand soldiers. No one else can get involved in the land of the Changing Country. If anyone dares to invade, I'm afraid women and children will fight to the death."
Xiyu said with some excitement: "Whoever dares to invade Pingcheng, I will be the first to stand on the top of the city. Although he is unable to draw his bow, he has the strength to throw a few bricks and stones. If there is no bricks and stones, he will kill them if he jumps down."
indivual."
He Ran laughed and said: "Although the old gentleman is a well-educated and wise man, his fierceness is better than that of a hero. He can die for the sake of justice. I learned this when I first came to Pingcheng."
Xiyu's old face turned red and said: "Military advisor, please don't mention what happened that day. Every time I think of my old face, I feel feverish."
Mrs. Nuanyu on the side asked curiously: "What are you talking about?"
Xiyu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Madam, please stop making fun of me. If you tell me, I will have no place to show my face. I have been feeling guilty for being so difficult for the military advisor that day."
Before He Ran could speak, suddenly there was a huge chaos in the crowd on the roadside in front of him. He hurriedly stood in front of Mrs. Nuanyu. Without waiting for Hong'an's order, the guards drew their swords in their hands and protected the military advisor and others in the middle.
Directional warning.
Soon someone came over to report that two people wanted to assassinate the military advisor. When they took out their sharp blades, they were seen by the people on the side. Everyone swarmed up and stopped them. One of them was beaten to death on the spot by the angry people, and the other was left with only one breath.
Xiyu Dajue's face turned pale and he said bitterly: "Bring that man to my custody! It's a blessing for him that he can't calm down!" Then he said to He Ran in embarrassment, "Military advisor, please punish me for my dereliction of duty."
He Ran smiled happily and said: "Assassins are the most difficult to guard against. This is not a dereliction of duty. Instead, the old gentleman should be praised. The king's protection is not lax when traveling, but there are still people who are assassinated. The old gentleman governs the people well."
Fang, if all the people in the city are willing to be my guards, He Ran will be able to walk alone on the street from now on."
Xiyu felt a little relieved after hearing what the military advisor said, but he refused to let him continue shopping. He Ran obediently took Mrs. Nuanyu back to the government office.
Before he entered the mansion, he saw Xi Qun running out in a hurry. Seeing him, he happily paid homage and said, "I was just going to find the military advisor, but I didn't expect that the military advisor would just come back."
"I figured you should come here in the next few days." He Ran said with a smile.
Xi Qun saluted Mrs. Nuanyu again and followed the military advisor into the inner hall without having time to speak to Hong Quan and the others.
"Sit down, Mr. Xi." He Ran said with a smile.
Xi Qun grinned and said: "The military advisor made fun of the villain as soon as we met. The villain was about to tell the military advisor that I will never serve as a bad official again. No matter what, you should ask the military advisor to let me come back to serve you."
"Okay, don't be a villain. Madam is not an outsider, so you don't have to be polite. Haha, you didn't learn anything else from me, but you have learned it in a decent way by resigning."
Mrs. Nuanyu covered her mouth and smiled after hearing this.
Xi Qun sighed and said: "This time, villain... I completely know that I am not the material to be an official. This crime is really not something that ordinary people can bear. Even the talented lady Lin said so."
He Ran laughed and said: "This talented girl Lin is too disrespectful to you. After all, you are also a dignified envoy."
Xi Qun smiled and said, "I don't dare to pretend to be an envoy in front of a talented woman." At this point, he remembered something and was about to speak with a grimace, but looked at Mrs. Nuanyu and closed his mouth again.
Mrs. Nuanyu stood up with a smile and said, "You can report it to the military advisor. I'm going to rest."
He Ran hurriedly pulled her to sit down and scolded Xi Qun: "Is there anything you can't tell me in front of Madam? You're hesitant. It's better not to use your thoughts in front of Madam. You won't embarrass me. You have something on your mind.
I can’t even hide it!”
Xi Qun smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes! Talented Lin... asked the military advisor to draw a thousand paintings for her as a reward for her going to Dechang."
"What! A thousand pictures?!" He Ran looked at him in disbelief.
"Yes, it must be drawn by his own hands. He cannot leave it to others, and... he cannot handle it carelessly." Xi Qun explained Lin Yan's conditions in full with a wry smile.
"This will take a lifetime to paint." Mrs. Nuanyu said insinuatingly.
He Ran pointed at Xi Qun and said: "You are so stupid! You are so outspoken and can't move your mind at all. Can you say this in front of my wife? What I just said you meant is that you can talk about military and national affairs in front of your wife."
, you can only tell me this kind of thing behind my back, don’t you understand?”
Even Xi Qun couldn't help laughing at this time. No matter how honest he was, he could tell that the military advisor was joking with his wife again.
Mrs. Nuanyu smiled and shook her head: "It's not easy to be a servant under you. Xi Qun, you'd better be a servant."
The three of them laughed again.
