Chapter 1189
Jingyang looked at Wen Xiaonian carefully. Wen Xiaonian's appearance, temperament and accent made him very curious.
He replied: "We do have soldiers and food, but we cannot withstand the consumption. After all, we are still far away from conquering the entire Nanyun. The best policy is to subjugate the enemy's soldiers without fighting. Pay equal attention to kindness and power, and then give him enough benefits.
, take it for your own use.”
Wu Xiaoke said: "I have been begging around here for many years, and I know that Zhou Puzhong and the next Licheng city are related by marriage. They are both quite big towns. If Zhou Puzhong is recruited, then Licheng and the same city should be taken.
Effortless.”
Jingyang nodded appreciatively, "Yes, Zhou Puzhong has been here for many years. He is more familiar with the terrain than us, and the people also support him. If he hides his private soldiers in the mountains and forests or breaks them into pieces and hides them in people's homes, he wants to completely annihilate them.
It’s not easy. So my father wants to recruit people first, and then attack if that doesn’t work.”
Ling Yao looked at Wu Xiaoke with bright eyes, "Okay, I thought you were smart, so I asked you to practice with me, but I didn't expect you knew a lot."
Wu Xiaoke chuckled and said, "I'm just a street boy begging for food. I don't know anything."
Jingyang's eyes turned and said, "Beggars cannot be underestimated. The power of their group cannot be underestimated."
Ling Yao's eyes lit up, "Did my brother also think of the beggar gang in the story that my mother and concubine told us?"
Jingyang smiled and said, "Didn't my sister take him with her to ask him to contact his original companions to find out information?"
Ling Yao gave him a roll of her eyes, "You are the smart one! He has such a ruffian temperament that pretending to be a beggar is just a performance. But he is not as thoughtful as Wen Xiaonian, so he let Wen Xiaonian come up with ideas."
Don't want to come in and report: "The team is ready. Your Majesty and Princess are asking the eldest lady and the third young master to set off."
The discussion ended, and several high-spirited boys and girls stood up and left the tent.
Wu Xiaoke walked at the end, poured the uneaten corn crispy rice into his clothes, and then hurriedly followed out.
Ling Yao and Jing Yu got on the largest carriage, while Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli were already sitting in the carriage.
Shangguan Ruoli was holding two pieces of paper and reading them, his brows furrowed.
Ling Yao crawled over, sat next to Shangguan Ruoli, held her arm, and said softly: "Concubine, have you encountered any problems?"
Shangguan Ruoli sighed, "It's not a problem, it just feels like a big headache."
With that said, he handed the paper in his hand to Ling Yao.
Ling Yao took it and looked at it, surprised: "Is this the list of Zhou Puzhong's harem?"
Shangguan Ruoli nodded and exchanged glances with Dongming Ziyu.
Ling Yao looked at the list and sighed: "Mrs. Zhou can't give birth to a child herself, and the dozen sons are all concubines. The dozen sons have more than a dozen serious daughters-in-law, and they have countless concubines; the next generation also has granddaughters and granddaughters-in-law.
Tsk tsk, pretending to be generous is stupid!”
Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "It's okay to think so, but it's wrong to say it out loud. Didn't Sir teach you?"
This is contrary to the current three views. If you go against the mainstream knowledge, you will be criticized.
Ling Yaohun said nonchalantly: "What do I have to hide in front of my father, my mother and my brother?"
Jingyang nodded with a sullen face: "From now on, the eldest brother will definitely make the eldest sister a princess. You can say what you want and do whatever you want. You will be supported by your eldest brother and younger brothers."
Ling Yao's eyes were red with emotion, she pulled Jingyang over and kissed his tender little face, "What a good brother, thank you!"
Jingyang wiped the saliva on his face in disgust, his ears turning slightly red, "What's there to thank you for? You are a princess, and a concubine cannot take concubines, so you won't have this trouble."
Ling Yao raised her eyebrows proudly, "Hey, that's true."
Shangguan Ruoli smiled fondly, "However, oppressing others based on status is not the way for a couple to get along. It also depends on how you manage it. Otherwise, if you can't control a man's heart, something will happen sooner or later."
Dongming Ziyu thought deeply, "Just learn from your mother and concubine, and she will control my heart."
Ling Yao looked at her father with admiration and admiration, and said: "I will marry a man like my father in the future."
"Haha, okay!" Dongming Ziyu was admired by his little lover in his previous life, and he smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Shangguan Ruoli pouted, she was my little lover in the previous life, and she was a cargo carrier.
Seeing her sour look, Dongming Ziyu smiled even more heartily.
Ling Yao and Jing Yang also laughed, thinking that such loving parents is the normal way for couples to get along.
Ling Yao threw the paper on the small table, "Mom and concubine, you don't need to remember these. Your identity, just show that you don't want to be near anyone else. Aren't they supposed to coax us in the current situation? They are holding back their bad feelings.
They are waiting to deal with us, there is no need to be polite to them."
Jing Yang was convinced, "Sister is right. For those who want to plot against us, there is really no need to coax them."
Shangguan Ruoli said: "Your father has not broken up with them, so you should not come forward to stir up trouble."
Ling Yao didn't take it to heart and said with a smile: "I know, I know."
You're being polite, everyone puts on their masks and smiles, hello, hello, hello, everyone.
If anyone dared to play tricks on her, she wasn't going to give him any face.
Her father suppressed Zhou Puzhong first and then tried to win over him, so she knew exactly what his attitude was.
Shangguan Ruoli said angrily: "Stop being so playful and smiling, you must watch more and talk less."
She felt that she was already very weak when it came to matters in the inner house, and Ling Yao was even worse than her.
Although it seems now that Ling Yao, the emperor's sister, will definitely marry low in the future and will not be wronged, she still needs to be prepared and learn some tricks of the queen.
Ling Yao hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!"
When they were approaching Jicheng, Wu Xiaoke and Wen Xiaonian put on beggars' clothes and mixed in with the crowd of refugees and entered the city.
The city gate had collapsed, it was dark and in a mess, and it looked like the soldiers guarding the city gate were disgraced.
Ling Yao opened the car curtain and looked out, gloating and chuckling: "Did your father bombard you?"
Shangguan Ruoli pinched her little nose and said, "Don't gloat about others' misfortune."
Ling Yao probed her tongue and said, "Don't worry, concubine, when you get out of the car, I will be a serious lady and I will ensure your satisfaction."
"Meow!" Xueqiu also said that he would be obedient and jumped on Ling Yao's shoulder, acting serious.
Shangguan Ruoli was amused by its cute appearance and took a small dried fish from the secret room to feed it, "Protect Ling Yao well, you know?"
Xueqiu nodded happily, hugged the dried fish and started eating it in a very humane manner.
This little thing is humane, flexible, and has a good sense of smell. It is the best self-defense beast.
When he arrived at Zhou Mansion, he didn't expect that he had invited so many people, and there was a long queue at the door.
However, Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli had different identities, so everyone had to make way for them, so the journey was smooth and they quickly arrived at the gate.
