"Rong'er, go get me a cup of tea... uh... okay, a cup of tea."
Liu Zhang originally wanted to find an excuse to get rid of Xiao Furong, but suddenly he thought of the tea... But it was too late to regret it. Xiao Furong actually learned how to make tea from mulberry leaves. When he heard that Liu Zhang wanted to drink tea, he happily took small steps.
went.
Liu Zhang shook his head, and Sang Ye also sighed in his heart: "This unscrupulous husband has taught me for a long time, but it was all in vain once he got carried away."
Seeing Xiao Furong leaving, Liu Zhang said to Sang Ye: "Miss Ye, don't mind if I say a few words. I know you taught Rong'er what you did for her own good, but I don't know how to say it. I hope you don't
It’s too forceful, and I don’t want Rong’er to lose her true nature, can you understand what I’m saying?”
Sang Ye was stunned, bowed to Liu Zhang and said: "Sang Ye understands that Da Ru is a real hero, and he also likes a free and easy woman like Xiao Fu Ru, who does not stick to red tape. Sang Ye deeply admires her."
In fact, what Sang Ye thinks in his heart is not what he says. This world is a world of red tape. Although Sang Ye is a peasant girl, she has heard about the Sichuan Army. She dare not say anything else. At least Liu Zhang is a bit unique.
Jingran went against the family that controlled absolute power. It may be because of this character that a casual woman like Xiao Furong was able to win Liu Zhang's favor.
But the power of the world is powerful, and the so-called false etiquette is often real. Sang Ye does not believe that Xiao Furong will have a good result if he continues like this, especially as Liu Zhang's status increases and the number of wives and concubines around him increases, Xiao Furong's pressure becomes even greater.
will get bigger and bigger.
Sang Ye envied Xiao Furong, and Xiao Furong's bright character also infected Sang Ye. Sang Ye couldn't bear that such a young girl would suffer in the future and lose everything she had now, so while the Sichuan army was stationed here, he could save her.
There are some things that Mulberry wants to do as much as possible.
Sang Ye lowered his head and looked submissive. Liu Zhang didn't even look at it. He just thought that Sang Ye had heard it and said with a smile: "Anyway, thank you. Ronger has been wronged a lot since she joined me.
There's basically no one to talk to at home or in the army, so it's great to have you."
"Daru, please don't say that. If Daru can allow Sangye to stay here, it is already Sangye's good fortune."
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "This is your house. We are trespassing. How can we drive you out? But I want to ask, you are a citizen here. Are these people really that afraid of the Sichuan Army? Or is it just simple?
Bewitched by the family?"
A lonely war is tiring. After the incident on the bank of the Xiangjiang River, Liu Zhang felt that it was urgent to solve the problem of people's support. The people depended on food, and to solve the problem of people's support was of course to open up internal affairs, but this was an internal issue of people's support. Liu Zhang also
Want to know the sentiments of the people in the conquered areas.
Sang Ye thought for a while and said: "Sang Ye is a farm girl and doesn't understand any big principles. But as far as the people around me are concerned, Da Ru has both points, but neither of them is important.
The people are afraid of the Sichuan Army. After all, the Sichuan Army killed many people. We people don't care who you kill. As long as it is massacre, people will be afraid.
Those government officials also come to spread propaganda to us. If we believe what they say, it is a joke. These officials usually act arrogantly and recklessly. They tell lies without blushing or breathing, and they do thousands of dirty things to the people.
Only if you know a lot about them can you believe what they say.
But our real thoughts are not in these, we just want to live a peaceful life. The arrival of the Sichuan Army, no matter what the original intention, has disrupted our peaceful life. We do not believe the official, nor do we believe that the Sichuan Army has entered Ruma, but we
We can’t afford to gamble. If we lose the bet, we will have to risk our lives. At least we can escape to Xiangyang City, or flee north, so we won’t have to worry about our lives.”
After listening to Sang Ye's words, Liu Zhang was silent for a long time and sighed. The people are always the weak in war. Those noble families took advantage of the people's mentality of not being able to afford gambling and successfully made the people avoid the Sichuan army. This happened many times.
It will only make the Sichuan Army's image worse and worse.
Sang Ye looked at Liu Zhang's expression and continued: "Don't worry too much about Da Ru. Although Da Ru has killed countless people, Sang Ye can see that Da Ru is a king who loves the people. As long as Da Ru can be killed early,
If Jingxiang is pacified, those people will come back. After all, no one is willing to leave their hometown easily."
Liu Zhang pondered and nodded. At this moment, he heard footsteps coming from the side door. Liu Zhang quickly said: "Miss Ye, hurry up and get two candies from the porcelain plate over there."
Sang Ye turned around and walked towards the porcelain plate. Seeing Liu Zhang's anxious expression, he couldn't help but secretly pursed his lips and smiled. Then he saw Xiao Furong walking out happily with a cup of tea. The cup was full, and her cerebellum was not good.
, the tea flowed a little along the rim of the cup.
........."Report, Jiangdong Pegasus sent a message, there are signs of Jiangdong Army gathering in Chaisanghukou area."
Just when Liu Zhang was about to fall asleep, a soldier suddenly came to report. He frowned and asked, "Can Zhou Yu and Lu Su come to Wu Commandery immediately?"
"No, Zhou Yu and Lu Su are all in mourning for Sun Ce in Wu County, but Jiangdong Navy generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin have left Wu County and gone to Hukou."
"Zhou Tai Jiang Qin?" Liu Zhang recited silently and waved to the soldiers: "Go down."
"yes."
Liu Zhang frowned and thought, Zhou Yu and Lu Su did not move. It was obvious that Jiangdong did not want to fully participate in the battle of Jingzhou, but sent Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai. Is it really to aid Xiangyang? Now that the Yangtze River has burst its banks, Gan and Ning's naval forces are participating in disaster relief, and
It would be troublesome to monitor the Jiangling family and block the Jiangdong army.
Xiao Furong had just washed her hair and came out. When she saw Liu Zhang was worried again, she suddenly remembered what Bai Yaosangye said. She walked to the bedside table, pulled out two pieces of paper and smiled at Liu Zhang: "Husband, there is a letter from Chengdu.
, it was written by Sister Yue to you."
"Huang Yue?" Liu Zhang's attention shifted to the two letters. He took the one handed by Xiao Furong and opened it while asking, "Whose is the other one?"
"Zhou Buyi, that little devil."
"Zhou Buji?" Liu Zhang was excited and immediately put down Huang Yue's letter and asked Xiao Furong for another one. Xiao Furong was a little unhappy when she saw Huang Yue's letter thrown aside, so she held Zhou Buji's letter tightly.
Xin said: "That little devil wrote to me, not to you."
"Your???" Liu Zhang was very surprised.
"Why? It doesn't look like it?" Xiao Furong put the envelope up, and there were four big characters written on it: Xiao Furong received it. Zhou Buyi was young and had a strong pen. He wrote the four characters with flying colors. Liu Zhang thought of his own calligraphy.
It is simply the difference between the top of Jiuyao and the eighteen levels of hell.
"Why is he writing to you?"
Xiao Furong climbed onto the bed, her hair wrapped in a white towel, and she snuggled up with Liu Zhang to read Zhou Buyi's letter. The faint fragrance passed into Liu Zhang's nose, which was extremely refreshing. Liu Zhang couldn't help but hug Xiao Furong tightly, and Xiao Furong obeyed.
The ground is closer.
Sister Ronger: It has been five months since you left. In these five months, it has been sunny for 127 days, heavy rain for seven days, light rain for fifteen days. It snowed for one day on Lantern Festival, and it is still raining now.
...The female embroidery master and a worker were pregnant. Only I knew about it. I didn't tell anyone else. The female master had quietly left. Recently, I learned to make noodles from Master Wang Shi in the snack street. The master said that I
The noodles he makes are more delicious than those he made. I'll wait for you to come back... That guy Liu Xun has been particularly annoying recently. He wrote some articles that I can't understand. He insists on me correcting him and teaching him how to govern a country with troops.
I really wanted to tell him that when you were a little kid, you used military force to rule the country... But I held back, I didn't want to hurt his self-esteem, and more importantly, I didn't want to argue with a little kid... By the way
, and that cute little white dog you saw on West Street before... Liu Zhang frowned more and more as he looked at it. He thought it was some trick to help him get out of trouble. Unexpectedly, he wrote a lot of nonsense. Liu Zhang slapped his forehead and said boredly.
Lie down.
"Hey, hey, get up quickly, what does it say?"
Xiao Furong looked at the letter intently and patted Liu Zhang's shoulder. Liu Zhang glanced at Xiao Furong in surprise. Liu Zhang swore that when he saw Xiao Furong's focused expression just now, he really thought Xiao Furong understood.
"It's all boring nonsense. It's better if you don't know."
"No, tell me."
"No, I don't want to read nonsense."
"Bo." Xiao Furong kissed Liu Zhang on the forehead. Liu Zhang looked at the smiling face in front of him and got up helplessly to continue looking.
"...Now, he finally said, now the seasons are changing, the air is getting hotter, dragons and phoenixes are returning to their nests, and wild geese are flying south. But don't lose your clothes, otherwise you will easily catch a cold and it will not be easy to get better, especially since we are in Jingzhou.
Xiang, with heavy water vapor, is most susceptible to cháo. If an animal dies on the road, it is easy to be infected..."
"etc……"
Liu Zhang suddenly stopped talking, and his expression suddenly became cold and solemn. Xiao Furong listened well and asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"
"This letter is still addressed to me." Liu Zhang murmured, and immediately shouted: "Come in."
Wang Xu came in in response.
"Immediately order all the arrows, spears, and armor in stock to be moved to high places and stored in tents. They should be kept dry with plant ashes. They should be sent under supervision at all times. Go quickly."
"Yes." Wang Xu frowned and immediately turned around and left.
Liu Zhang let out a sigh of relief. If it weren't for Zhou Buji's letter, he would have almost been tricked by Xu Shu. How could Xu Shu stay in the ancient Xiangyang City with peace of mind? It is possible that Xu Shu went to Jiangdong to ask for help just to be prepared.
At the same time attract your own attention.
The real killer move is to take advantage of the Sichuan army's ignorance of the climate in Jingxiang. Once all the Sichuan army's armor, weapons and arrows are damaged, no matter how elite the army is, they will be defeated.
Think about these rural villages with strong walls and clear fields. Most of them are low-lying, but they are far away from the Xiangjiang River and the Han River. There are no worries about floods. It is easier to paralyze the Sichuan army and prevent them from checking the dampness. It is clearly Xu Shu's intention to stay here.
Down.
When he faced off against these Jingxiang monsters, he made one mistake and lost everything. Liu Zhang never dared to relax his vigilance. At the same time, he thought of Pang Yuan. The Sichuan army was in great need of a strategist with insight into opportunities.
