Huang Yueying was packing her clothes. She paused when she heard the words, and then hesitated a little, as if she was wondering if her ears had heard wrongly, "Husband, what...what did you say?"
Cai Yan gave birth to a boy, which fulfilled Cai Yan's long-cherished wish. Although Huang Yueying had some mixed feelings in her heart, she still packed some supplies for Cai Yan, including clothes passed down from the older child.
of.
The most common ones are diapers.
It's not like later generations who have finished diapers. For newborns, new cloth cannot be used as diapers. It must be a softer cloth that has been washed so as not to scratch the tender skin of infants and young children.
"I said, I'm going to fight." Fei Qian repeated.
"..." Huang Yueying lowered her head and started folding clothes again, "I understand. You can rest assured at home."
Fei Qian watched Huang Yueying fold the small piece of clothing in her hand, open it, fold it again, open it again...
Fei Qian stepped forward and held Huang Yueying's hand.
Huang Yueying's hands were a little cold and trembling.
"There is a problem in the Western Region..." Fei Qian said calmly, "I must go there."
Fei Qian did not explain Lu Bu's related issues to Huang Yueying, nor did he say much about political matters in the Western Regions, but Fei Qian could still feel Huang Yueying's worries.
"I asked Taishi Ziyi to accompany me." Fei Qian said with a smile, "Although there are many countries in the Western Region, they actually don't have much fighting power. If you hit their leader, the rest will not be a concern. What's more, there are still workers.
that……"
Fei Qian whispered something, and Huang Yueying was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say it's not perfect yet? Husband, do you want... to use it in the Western Regions first?"
Fei Qian nodded, "Just in time to give it a try."
Huang Yueying thought for a moment, held Fei Qian in her backhand, and whispered: "Husband, you must remember to stand far away! Last time...last time it was because the craftsman was careless, and many people were injured..."
Fei Qian nodded, "I know."
Huang Yueying raised her head and looked at Fei Qian blankly for a while, then bumped her head on Fei Qian's chest and said dullly, "Go."
"Ah?" Fei Qian didn't react, "I still need to prepare for the expedition..."
These days, it is definitely impossible to say that you can just move in with your bags and forget about a small army. When a large army wants to march, it requires a lot of preparations. Being able to assemble and set off within three to five days is already very extreme. There are some feudal armies that are slow in arms.
In the dynasty, perhaps a year has passed from the order to the centralization and then to the establishment.
Huang Yueying gritted her little white teeth and said, "I want you to go to the Cai family's sister and tell her! Also, isn't that Qiang girl of yours also pregnant? By the way, I want to tell you so that you don't have to look back if you have fetal motility.
Blame me again..."
"..." Fei Qian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to say anything more, and walked out dejectedly.
Fei Qian could see that Huang Yueying was actually very uncomfortable, and this discomfort lasted for more than a day or two. For Huang Yueying, it was not just about giving out lollipops for others to lick, but the key was that after giving them out, she also needed to pretend
She has a very magnanimous look, so that she can fully show the demeanor of a family lady.
When a woman doesn't have any complaints about her man, most of them won't have any emotions either.
So now, can it be considered a good thing?
The fingers on the strings stopped, and Cai Yan frowned slightly.
Fei Qian had no choice but to say his original words again.
Because of her pregnancy, Cai Yan has now gained a whole circle of fat, and her chin is covered with flesh. She was originally very happy that Fei Qian came, but before she finished playing the song, she heard Fei Qian saying that he was going to go on an expedition, and she suddenly became confused.
, the eyes were a little red, and tears fell down.
"Yeah..." Cai Yan realized that he was crying, so he turned his head hastily, not wanting Fei Qian to see him crying.
Fei Qian stepped forward and put his hand on Cai Yan's shoulder.
Cai Yan's voice was a little muffled, "I'm not... I don't know why I shed tears..."
Fei Qian patted Cai Yan's shoulder gently, "I understand."
Cai Yan usually controls her emotions very well and rarely gets angry or angry. But now it is just caused by the imbalance of human hormones after pregnancy.
Fei Qian changed the topic, "That kid Zhen, he's basically on the road now, but he still slacks off occasionally. You have to pay more attention when the time comes... As for the girl, it's time for her to become enlightened now. She can't be a fool."
Tian is playing with wood with Yueying... It's best to teach them separately, otherwise if you and Zhen'er are together, I'm afraid they won't be able to sit still..."
Children are always arrogant and arrogant, and they have the instinct to follow older children, and will be very sad when they are rejected. Cai Yan was pregnant before, and she didn't know whether it would be a boy or a girl. She was somewhat worried about gains and losses, so she didn't have the heart to take care of the girl.
Now that the melon is ripe and has fallen off, it is time to pick up what was left behind.
Regarding education, Cai Yan should have done a good job.
Cai Yan nodded, then leaned back slightly, leaned against Fei Qian, leaned against Fei Qian for a moment and said, "Will your husband stay here tonight? I will make soup for you..."
"..." Fei Qian was a little embarrassed, but still said, "I still want to go...well, go to Yami's place. She has just become pregnant..."
Cai Yan slowly sat up straight, his eyebrows drooping, "Oh, then go ahead."
Fei Qian came out frustrated again, turned left, then left, then right. After entering the small courtyard, he met Yami head-on. Before he could say anything, Yami rushed up and grabbed Fei Qian's clothes, beaming with joy.
Like, eyes sparkling, "I heard you are going to fight? Take me there! I can shoot arrows and I can cut people! I'll help you!"
"..." Fei Qian didn't know what to say for a moment, "You... you are pregnant!"
Yami patted her belly, "Isn't this already bulging? It's in there and you can't throw it away. What are you afraid of?! When my mother was pregnant with me, she went to war!"
"..." Fei Qian was speechless. After a moment, he said straightly, "No."
Yami immediately narrowed her eyes, threw her hand away from Fei Qian like a piece of rag, turned around and walked back.
Fei Qian followed helplessly and sat down in the hall.
Yami narrowed her eyes solemnly, sat upright, and said nothing.
Fei Qian was silent for a moment, "Do you want to write a letter to your mother? I should be passing by Longyou."
"Okay!" Yami suddenly seemed to come back to life, but soon fell down as if the eggplant had been beaten by frost, "But I don't know many words..."
The Qiang people do not have their own written language. In other words, when the Qiang language had not yet formed a system, it was interrupted and affected by the Chinese who came first. Therefore, the Qiang people have the Qiang language, but no written language. This is like
In later generations, many regions had different dialects, but there was no writing system corresponding to the dialect, or even if there was, it was fragmented and incomplete.
"Hey... come here, get some pen and ink!" Fei Qian didn't bother to tell Yami that he should read more and learn how to read. "You tell me and I'll help you write."
"Okay!" Yami immediately came closer, "Ah, then can I... say bad things about you in the letter?"
Fei Qianba smacked his lips, "You can say it, but I don't have to write it."
"Yeah! How can that work!" Yami said, "I'd better ask someone else to write it!"
Even though she said that, after the people brought the pen and ink, Yami still sat next to Fei Qian, talking about her longing for her hometown, and recounting her experiences in Chang'an...
The news that Hussar was about to go on an expedition was not only passed on in the Yamen of Husqi Mansion, but also spread among the three assistants in Chang'an.
The army needs to be assembled and logistics need to be prepared. These actions cannot completely avoid the sight of others, nor can they be completely separated from ordinary people. The huge number of texts, carrying various people and things, is carried out in Chang'an Three
In the auxiliary land, a fierce storm blew up.
The dark clouds of war were rolling, and then it was like a huge boulder had been dropped in a deep, calm pool, and the waves that spurted out instantly spread along the water, and the ripples spread.
Heluo.
Yang Biao was sitting in the Sizhi Hall.
The old men who originally sat here have withered away, and now it is Yang Biao's turn to sit here.
And he gradually became older, as if his essence had been absorbed by Sizhitang.
This is not some miraculous thing, but the aging that will inevitably occur when most people give up their authority and no longer hold their positions. Moreover, there is no beauty and health care in the big man. Most people enter the period of rapid aging as soon as they reach forty.
Basically, if you can live to sixty, you can be called a long-lived person.
Yang Biao was sitting in meditation when suddenly Yang Xiu hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard and prostrated himself in the hall.
The hurried footsteps represent Yang Xiu's excitement. The dust raised by his arrival is like the blooming excitement, "Father! The hussars are ready to conquer the Western Regions!"
Yang Biao straightened his waist fiercely, and then prepared to stand up. However, because he had been sitting for a long time, his body swayed a little, and he fell down again. He held on to the table and let out a long breath, "The Western Regions... it really is true."
Is there a big mess?』
Yang Xiu clapped his hands and said, "That's definitely the case! The hussar was hiding it before... Haha, now, I can't hide it anymore! This time, the hussar really suffered a lot!"
The Yang family didn't have much favorable impressions of Fei Qian.
Forget about Yang Biao, Yang Xiu never got any advantage in front of Fei Qian. Even if Yang Xiu deliberately pretended to be humble and stupid, and even pretended to be crazy and stupid, there was no benefit except getting Fei Qian's suspicious eyes.
No.
The key is that Yang Biao and Yang Xiu are not stupid.
If the Yang family and his son were both fools, then maybe they would settle down in Heluo, guarding a dilapidated Luoyang City, and live their own small life peacefully, muddle along.
Unfortunately, they are not stupid, so they know that the Heluo area is just a buffer zone deliberately set aside by Fei Qian and Cao Cao.
The Yangs and his son would not find much satisfaction in this kind of day when they had to rely on others to make decisions and could be overturned at any time and at any time.
If you hold back your frustration for a long time, it will inevitably turn into resentment.
I hate the injustice of heaven, the injustice of the earth, and the unkindness of people.
So when it was known that Fei Qian was in chaos in the Western Regions and had to go on an expedition, it was inevitable to rejoice in his misfortune.
The two looked at each other and laughed, causing the dust on the Sizhi Hall to fall down.
After a while, the laughter stopped, and the sadness was like floating dust. No matter how flamboyantly it flew upward, it would eventually fall. When Fei Qian went to the Western Regions, perhaps the balance between things might be broken.
.Once the balance between east and west is broken, the first person to bear the brunt is the Heluo Yang family.
what to do?
"Father, my dear..." Yang Xiu muttered, "Would you like to contact...?"
Yang Biao raised his head and looked at the plaque of Sizhitang. He was silent for a long time. If his beard hadn't trembled slightly, it might have looked more like a statue than a person. "That's inappropriate."
"Huh?" Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Father, what you mean is..."
"Based on what I have seen about the hussars..." The wrinkles on Yang Biao's face revealed some suspicion. After a while, he slowly said, "It shouldn't be like this..."
Yang Biao didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was still very clear.
He remembered what happened in Pingyang that year.
At that time, Yang Biao once thought that he had Fei Qian under control. When he was about to pick the peach, he was bitten by the peach. From that time on, Yang Biao was cautious about Fei Qian's affairs.
No matter how cautious you are, who knows if what looks like a peach in front of you is actually filled with something?
"Father, what you mean is that Fei Qiao should have a back-up, so that he wouldn't be in such a... embarrassment?" Yang Xiu also thought about it and used a relatively neutral word, "But Fei Qiao is not the one who is in chaos right now.
The rider is Lu Fengxian, the protector of the Western Regions! Is this Lu Fengxian...just a warrior..."
Yang Xiu felt that Fei Qian was indeed resourceful, but he had pig teammates!
For a pig, what other strategies can be expected?
Now that Fei Qian is going to the Western Regions, it is not Fei Qian's problem, but Lu Bu's problem. Fei Qian indeed rarely makes mistakes, but it does not mean that the people under him do not make mistakes as well, nor does it mean that the pigs under him do not make the same mistakes.
Make mistakes.
"What you said makes sense..." Yang Biao nodded, "But... we still shouldn't be anxious... because there must be someone more anxious than us..."
Yang Xiu took a breath and said, "I understand."
The father and son stopped talking and sat quietly in the Sizhi Hall, like two statues or two spiders sitting in the middle of the web.
There are indeed people who are more anxious than the Yangs and his son.
After the news reached Shandong, the area around Xu County was almost boiling.
It's not just ripples, it's like water boiling.
Puff, puff, puff of hot steam, splashing everywhere.
"Send someone to inform General Le that the Hanoi recruit camp should be concentrated in Chenliu in ten days!"
"yes!"
"Yingchuan Workshop has started to increase preparation. Starting from today, all craftsmen are not allowed to take vacations, and all craftsmen are building equipment!"
"only!"
"The number of cavalry and horses must be counted, and the forage verification must not be neglected!"
"clear!"
Just like a chain reaction, when Guanzhong Chang'an moved, Shandong couldn't help but follow suit.
Continuous orders flowed out like water in the Chancery, and then spread to all sides. The messengers with recognition flags on their backs eagerly occupied the middle sections of all roads, and the messengers who came and went would even meet each other on the cross streets.
, and then regardless of cursing or investigating who is the main responsibility and who is the secondary responsibility, the first thing I do when I get up is to touch the orders on my body and rush to the next stop.
Throughout Shandong, from north to south, the generals of the Cao family and the Xiahou family gathered together. With serious faces, they were leading the troops to conduct drills, checking weapons and supplies, or patrolling areas. Everyone had a look on their face.
With a serious expression, the smile seemed to have been temporarily wiped out from their lives, leaving only seriousness and tension.
There is no way not to be nervous...
Even the clerks in the Prime Minister's Mansion were equally nervous. They were coming in and out, carrying documents, delivering orders, or collecting all the clues, just to provide them to a few big shots in the main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Carry out assessment, review and reference.
The price of goods in the market increased inadvertently, and then the store clerk walked out of the store again and again, took off the water tag, wiped off the original price, and wrote down the new price, which caused a new wave of wailing, and then another wave.
Robbery.
"The Hussars are going to conquer the Western Regions!"
"Have you heard? Someone is going to conquer the Western Regions..."
People in the market and countryside were also passing news to each other, and then they frowned and sighed, "I can't live this life..."
Perhaps it was because the walls of the palace were too high, or perhaps because the walls of the palace were too thick. When the ripples spread across Shandong, it could be said that Liu Xie got the news at the end.
Liu Xie remained silent and waved Xiao Huangmen to go out.
He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and wandered around the empty palace hall like a little old man.
The main hall is quiet, and the curtains make a rustling sound when they sway.
Liu Xie's footsteps echoed in the hall, but he could not rush out of the door of the hall. He seemed to be trapped in the hall, wandering back and forth, unconsciously turning in circles.
Everything he did was destroyed again...
Again.
Liu Xie just acted like he was pro-farmer and summoned old farmers to do experimental fields. Liu Xie went to the experimental fields as often as possible, or summoned officials to discuss, or consulted local old farmers, and from time to time he even went to the experimental fields in person.
What is the purpose of working in the fields? Is it really just for the few acres of land, or the few mouthfuls of food from the crops in the fields?
However, the sweat that he shed before and the reputation that he gained were nothing compared to the news coming from Guanzhong.
Zhuang He in the experimental field has yet to see any results, so naturally there is no way to attract more people's attention.
The whole of Shandong is now watching, listening, and paying attention to the changes in Guanzhong. Who cares about Liu Xie's farming?
The sun set, and the bright red brilliance shone at Liu Xie's feet.
It seems to be extremely bright and the golden light is dazzling, but the sunset will fall soon, and what is left is silence and coldness.
"ah……"
Liu Xie angrily swept the things off the table to the ground. Those messy things jumped on the wooden floor, making hollow sounds...
