Chapter 393 I want to try again
The three of them had lunch and sat there for almost an hour before someone came to summon them.
Mr. Tian stood up and Yan Laoer helped him tidy up his official uniform and watched him leave with others.
The father and daughter were the only ones left in the house.
Without the teacher watching from the side, Yan Laoer immediately relaxed and couldn't sit still. Yan Yu even jumped off the chair, tilted her head, stretched out her hands and raised her legs to move.
He sighed: "It's not easy to meet the prince, we have to wait for such a long time.
Master must have planned it well. If we come after dinner, we will have to wait. It is better to come earlier and still have a good time."
Yan Laoer didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Can your master still be like you and just worry about eating?"
Yan Yu chuckled and started walking around the room.
"This painting looks very good, it's quite valuable, and there's also this incense burner, Dad, look at it, it's antique."
Yan Laoer also came closer and kept nodding: "It looks good. The things that can be placed in the palace are all handmade by famous artists. Let's stay away and don't touch them."
"I can't believe it." Yan Laoer also imitated her daughter and spoke briefly.
It was just casual chatting, with no focus at all, just commonplace words.
What's wrong with the palace? People who have the palace don't buy food?
That can't be done!
The subordinate officials thought that this method should be widely spread in border towns.
Yan Yu ate the plums, then the pears, and then the plums.
But he knew that his daughter could understand.
The King of England smiled.
For example, in Xiao'an Village, if no one is killed and the enemy is killed from the tower, when reinforcements arrive, the soldiers and thieves will be wiped out.
Yan Yu was convinced. The father and daughter looked at each thing with their hands behind their backs. Every time they looked at something, they had to comment a few words.
nodded.
This is a prefectural city, and this kind of business cannot be done without the protection of anyone.
"That makes no sense." Yan Yu said.
Who is he on the cards? It is true that he was taken into the sect of Mr. Tian, but what kind of place is this? It is the palace of the King of England. What is the internal steward? He is the chief steward of the King of England's inner house.
It was as if he was deliberately trying to find out the details about his master and father.
But there is nothing that cannot be said. Dad is right to tell the truth.
He walked slowly to the front and coughed lightly in front of the door. The two people in the room quickly turned their heads and looked over.
"That's right, otherwise they wouldn't dare." Yan Yu was referring to the head contractor whom he met at the government office before.
Yan Yu hummed. "What should we do?"
Yan Laoer nodded heavily.
Although the brave men of each village fought hard against the enemy, they were outnumbered, their force was insufficient, and there was no way to avoid it.
A seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister, Manager Zheng has to be polite even when the teacher is in front of him. Why is he chatting so enthusiastically with you?
Just because you are a white lady, you have no fame?
Yan Yu thought of what her master said on the carriage.
Build high towers, practice swords and bows, and everyone in Guanzhou will work together to defend our territory!"
Manager Zheng was very polite and considerate. He asked the two of them how they had enjoyed their lunch. He also asked them to serve fruits and new tea. He said that the prince and Lord Tian were going to chat for who knows how long. He kindly asked the two of them to wait here and not to rush.
.
Pick up the pear and eat it.
Dad was right to find the foreman of the fast class.
"What to do, what to do!" Yan Laoer said.
Or do you really care about Mr. Tian and ask you kindly about your family affairs?
Yan Lao'er didn't have a bandage on his forehead, so he didn't feel that he had a sharp head, which was surprisingly bubbling.
I would like to ask you to equip the village heroes with swords and weapons, build high towers in each village to warn the enemy, and dig cellars under them to hide.
Manager Zheng said he still had something to do, and looked regretful that we couldn't talk more.
Unexpectedly, it was the internal affairs of the British Prince's Palace who showed up.
Yan Laoer: "No wonder your master wants to overturn the table."
Who is Yan Yu? Her father's dearest daughter, she knows her father so well that she can guess what he wants to say by just humming, not to mention his vague speech.
"My surname is Zheng, and I am the internal steward of the palace."
…
The father and daughter instantly thought of the caisson in the river. Not to mention, the styles were quite similar.
The middle-aged man standing in a hidden corner outside the window sneered.
Once Beirong invades again, the border defense cannot be defended, and what happened the day before yesterday will only happen again.
Manager Zheng asked very skillfully, and I don’t know if my father was aware of it.
"This Manager Zheng seems to be here to check my bottom." Yan Laoer looked around warily, lowered his voice and said vaguely while eating.
It just doesn't make sense.
I thought it was some gentleman from the government office...
Then why is Manager Zheng here?
It's obvious that someone from the royal family is involved here.
"Does he think we are stupid when he comes out?" Yan Laoer walked around the house to make sure there was no one around, so he couldn't help but ask his daughter.
"Master Tian thinks the method in Xiao'an Village is good, and he wants to follow suit, but you are sitting in an empty government office, where will you get the money to build the pagoda?
Manager Zheng and Yan Laoer, one deliberately started the conversation, the other never stayed silent, and they had a very lively conversation.
She saw that Manager Zheng was mainly asking about her master and her father.
But he is definitely not the one who can make the decision.
Mr. Tian looked serious. He first reported the loss of population and money in the countryside where Huju was in the city. Then he changed the topic: "...My lord, I have been building border defense for three years. I thought I could keep the Beirong out, but unexpectedly,
It's a delusional delusion!
The Beirong were cunning and crossed the mountains and forests to open the city gates and block the main roads between Huju and Yongning and Gufeng. If Fucheng and Gufeng had not rescued them in time, the people of Huju would not have been able to escape this disaster.
But I knew in my heart that there was something wrong with the people who came to me at this time.
Knowing that Yan Laoer is Mr. Tian's disciple, our closeness increased even further.
But put together, it's quite interesting.
It is difficult to escape the pursuit of horses, so you can gather and hide in the tower. You can shoot at high places and block at low places. As long as you hold this fortress, you can wait for reinforcements to arrive.
The fast class is responsible for collecting grain taxes, and it is easiest for them to do anything. There must be the same raccoon dog over there in the barn. They are complicit. They are an important place, but they are not the key people.
"Master Tian is not here to report something, so why are you here?" The King of England said in a gentle tone.
What did he do to attract others?
There is nothing else to do except buying food.
The father and daughter didn't look at each other. They didn't speak for a long time, just eating.
If you don't listen to the content and just look at the posture, it's quite bluffing, thinking that these two people, one big and one small, are knowledgeable...
After this battle, the people suffered, and the lower officials also felt deeply.
After seeing the people off, Yan Laoer drank several cups of tea.
Yan Yu shook his head and said: "Maybe... you are confident?"
Let’s talk about swords and bows. I already know about the bamboo crossbow. Although the materials are cheap, the range is limited and the power is slightly weak. Xiao’an Village was able to kill the Beirong because they were unprepared. But after this battle, they must have learned a lot.
, will definitely think about countermeasures.
Beirong has been committing crimes for many years and has succeeded many times. They are not easy people. If you look down on them, you will only suffer greater losses. Mr. Tian must be deeply touched by this. After three years of trimming the border, all the achievements have fallen short..."
The King's tone never changed, still kind, but his words were sharp and pointed directly at the person opposite.
Master Tian heard the prince's dissatisfaction, kowtowed and said in a deep voice: "It's because the subordinate is incompetent, but as long as the thieves persist in their evil intentions, I will not be stable as a tiger. The subordinate... I still want to try again, please allow me to do so."
