The development of things was somewhat beyond Shen Yi's expectations.
It's not that things didn't go smoothly, but it went a little too smoothly.
Because when His Majesty the Emperor mentioned this matter to him, Shen Yi felt that something was not very reliable.
It's not because this idea doesn't work, but because the conditions required for this idea to be realized are too ideal. Everything must be carried out in accordance with His Majesty's ideas before it can be realized.
In other words, Shen Yi's disguise must be perfect, and Qi Ren must firmly believe it, and at the same time, he must be completely convinced by this matter, so that the emperor's idea can be realized.
Mr. Shen did not expose this matter openly at the time, largely not because of how brilliant or amazing the plan was, but because the idea was "for the best", and it was just to make the boss happy and come to visit. It's worth the trip.
After all, this leader is very different from the leader in another world. His power has no limit!
Please him, and the benefits are endless.
After walking around like this, the worst result would be that after being seen through by Qi Ren, Qi Ren would do nothing.
Then after walking around for a while, His Majesty the Emperor returns to the court, and he can use this as material to brag about, saying that I was alone at the beginning and was so frightened that everyone retreated for dozens of miles without daring to move.
But now, the progress of things is very different from Shen Yi's expectation.
The Qi people were not only fooled, but they also increased their stakes in Ningyang, and they were very determined to fight in Ningyang.
Mr. Shen looked at the documents in front of him, thought for a moment, and called Jiang Sheng over.
Jiang Sheng stood carefully next to Shen Yi and said: "Young Master."
Mr. Shen closed his eyes, gathered his thoughts, and said, "I will write a letter in a moment. You can hand it to the Di Newspaper Division and ask the Di News Bureau to forward it to Ling Su as quickly as possible."
Jiang Sheng nodded.
"I will grind the ink for the young master."
Shen Yi nodded, stretched, and began to write a letter to Ling Su.
At this time, Lingsu's troops were near Dongping Prefecture and were the Huai'an army closest to Ningyang.
Of course, with Ling Su's relatively stable character, he did not attack Dongping Prefecture. He just led his troops to watch the Qi army in Dongping Prefecture and stopped them from moving, as Shen Yi said.
When Shen Yi wrote to Ling Su at this time, it was not to rush him over, nor even to mention the dispatch of troops. It was just to prepare Ling Su mentally and let him pay attention to the situation in Ningyang at all times.
This "attention" is not mainly for him to provide support.
Instead, he was asked to pay attention to the fact that once the Qi people moved too far south and the time was right, Ling Su's troops could cooperate with the vanguard army here and try to keep as many Qi people "overnight".
Because the content of the letter was not complicated, Mr. Shen finished the letter quickly as he was a Jinshi. After drying the ink, he handed it to Jiang Sheng and said, "My seal has been stamped on the letter. Please let me know." The Di Reporting Department should move quickly so as not to delay the military situation."
"Otherwise, I will be held accountable."
Jiang Sheng reached out to take it, responded, turned around and went down.
After writing a letter to Ling Su, Mr. Shen took out a sheepskin map of Shandong from his arms.
Although this map is not as detailed as the large map in his military tent, it is still a relatively detailed map. In addition, it is made of sheepskin and is relatively easy to carry. Shen Yi always carries it with him and reads it casually.
Looking at Ningyang on the map, Shen pointed at Ningyang County, looking left and right, but he really didn't see any dangerous places.
After all, His Majesty the Emperor is not here. His tactics can be said to be quite flexible. He can abandon this small county at any time and go to fight mobile warfare with the Qi people.
After watching for a while, Mr. Shen felt a little sleepy. He yawned and said lazily: "Look further, what is better than Zhou Shizhong?"
After saying this, he took off his coat and leaned on the small bed in the study. Because of the heat, he didn't cover himself with anything, and he quickly fell asleep.
When I woke up from sleep, the sky was completely dark.
Shen Yi stretched out, rubbed his eyes, and sat up from the bed.
Jiang Sheng, who was outside the room, heard the noise, opened the door carefully and walked in, saying, "Sir, are you awake?"
Shen Yi stretched, nodded, and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's time to apply."
Jiang Sheng said: "You haven't eaten much all day. I'll have someone prepare some food and bring it in later."
Mr. Shen was indeed a little hungry at the moment. He looked at the sky outside and suddenly smiled: "I slept until now and no one woke me up. It seems that Xue Wei fought well in this first battle, at least... …”
Shen Yi said leisurely: "At least Ningyang County has not been lost and is still in our hands."
Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "Young Master is wise."
"But the young master still underestimates General Xue."
Jiang Sheng poured tea for Shen Yi and said, "General Xue did not lose this battle."
"Both sides began to advance at around noon. By evening, General Xue had forced the Qi people back twenty miles."
"Almost the Qi people were suppressed and beaten all the time."
Shen Yi said "Huh", lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and asked, "Where is Mr. Xue Wei?"
Jiang Sheng hesitated for a moment and replied: "General Xue, he should still be on the frontline battlefield and has not retreated yet."
When Mr. Shen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed dumbly: "This kid really deserves to be called a reckless man."
After Shen Yi paused, he looked at the sky outside and said, "This time the Qi people came with bad intentions, and they may have great intentions. Please ask someone to inform Xue Wei, don't chase too deep, and just retreat."
Jiang Sheng responded quickly, turned around and ran out, called a follower of Shen Yi, gave him a few instructions and asked him to go and deliver the message.
Jiang Sheng himself brought food in from the outside. While placing it in front of Shen Yi, he said: "Sir, the Qi people have been targeting you more and more recently. Let's not talk about anything else. It's just food."
"For the countless times today, I found out that someone had poisoned me."
Shen Yi was startled, and then said with a smile: "They have occupied Ningyang for decades. It is inevitable that it is entangled and there are some people with evil intentions left. It is not surprising."
Jiang Sheng sighed: "There are too many people who want to harm the young master."
Mr. Shen didn't answer. After taking a few mouthfuls of rice, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Someone poisoned my food. What about your Majesty's food? Has anyone poisoned it?"
Jiang Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head slightly: "Sir, I really haven't asked about this, so I don't know."
Although His Majesty the Emperor is not in Ningyang, his guard of honor is there, which means that all the etiquette and rules that an emperor should have are not lacking here in Ningyang.
In the emperor's "walk" in Ningyang City, there is indeed a "His Majesty the Emperor" who is eating the royal meal.
Master Shen took a few bites of the food and said, "Send someone to ask about it later."
Jiang Sheng responded.
Soon, Mr. Shen finished his meal, touched his belly, and began to sit behind the desk to deal with the pile of paperwork.
Before he had finished processing the paperwork, there was a knock on the door: "Mr. Shen!"
Mr. Shen didn't even raise his head: "Come in."
General Xue, dressed in iron armor, stepped in.
It was still summer, and Xue Wei was already soaked with sweat. The heat was steaming up, and white steam was rising from his hair.
Mr. Shen glanced at him, shook his head helplessly and said, "Aren't you going to fight for the whole day again?"
Xue Wei smiled honestly and corrected: "Mr. Shen, I only have half a day."
"Moreover, my subordinates were not seriously injured."
Shen Yi shook his head slightly and sighed: "If you act like this, your life will be short in the future."
"Don't hit me like this tomorrow."
Xue Wei lowered his head and answered yes with a smile.
Shen Yi wanted to continue talking, but Jiang Sheng walked in cautiously. He first bowed his head to Xue Wei and saluted, then walked to Shen Yi's side and said something in Shen Yi's ear.
After hearing this, Mr. Shen looked up and looked out the door, his expression became strange.
