"Good news! Good news! Great victory at Yanmen Pass! Our army has killed one hundred thousand soldiers!"
The weathered knights roared through the streets on fast horses, each one shouting loudly to inform the people of the city!
Lin Zheng and others were sitting in the restaurant, looking down at the knights whizzing by below, and then heard the diners at the table next to them say: "This victory is not easy! After this battle, it is estimated that there will be no more large-scale border battles in the next ten years."
There’s a war!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his friend at the same table asked in confusion: "Why is this? Now that our army has won a great victory, it is a good time to pursue the victory. How could the war cease at this time?"
"There is nothing we can do about it! Whether it is Qingzhou or our Yanzhou, the seven-year war has greatly weakened our national strength! Jizhou is watching covetously from one side. If our country continues to fight, once
If the vitality is damaged, Jizhou will definitely take advantage of the situation, why not take precautions!? Now the result is very good, the border is won, our country can use this to negotiate with Qingzhou and ask for goods to make up for the losses of the war, and it will save face.
Because Qingzhou’s national strength is weak, they cannot refuse this negotiation no matter what. They also need time to recover. Let’s wait and see! The results will come out in less than a month, and they will definitely be not far from what I guessed.
At most, there is some discrepancy in the time of the armistice!"
"I don't believe it!" said my deskmate with an unconvinced look on his face. "The person who is in charge of the border right now is the old Marshal Hong. With his fiery temper, how could he give up the war so easily?"
"You are stupid! No matter how hot-tempered the old marshal is, can he still disobey His Majesty the Emperor's orders?"
"Anyway, I don't believe it anymore!",
"Bet! If there is an armistice, you lose me a thousand copper yuan. If there is no armistice, I lose you a thousand copper yuan!"
"Okay!" As they said this, the two parties clapped their hands, and it was considered a bet.
After the two of them settled their accounts and left, Xiao Ai turned around curiously and asked: "Brother Zheng, Qingzhou actually lost the battle!? We already told the court about Yanzhou's plan back then, so why did they still lose?
!”
Lin Zheng put down his chopsticks and said, "There is nothing surprising. Our actions at best only caused Yanzhou to lose a few cultivators. It did not have much impact on Yanzhou's overall national strength. A few small figures are not enough to influence it."
The final result!"
After hearing this, Xiao Ai suddenly showed a look of surprise. She was not very sensitive to things like military affairs and politics. She always thought that if Yanzhou's plan was ruined, Yanzhou would not be able to reap any good fruits. When she came to her senses, she asked again
: "Then who do you think will win among the two people just now?"
"I'm afraid the war is about to end!" Lin Zheng laughed, "Didn't you hear it all the way here? The farmers in Yanzhou are always complaining about the endless wars. This is actually a very dangerous signal! If Yanzhou has the ability
It's okay to take Qingzhou in one go. The people can see the hope of victory, and the court can appease the people, and the people's hearts are still available! But killing a hundred thousand people in a formation is not enough to damage Qingzhou's vitality, not to mention that this kind of military reports are often somewhat
Exaggeration, the losses suffered by Qingzhou are definitely not that big! In this case, it is definitely not possible to capture Qingzhou in one or two years, and before that, I am afraid that some people in Yanzhou will rebel! By then, there will be internal and external troubles.
It is possible for Yanzhou to be destroyed directly, so as long as the current emperor is not an idiot, it is time to give up and take a good rest in Yanzhou before talking about anything else!"
After hearing this, Xiao Ai breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that it's over! People always die in every war, and many people die. Why can't countries get along well with each other?"
"This issue is more complicated. It's better not to get too horny on this issue!" Lin Zheng smiled and shook his head. Politics has never been a clean thing, especially the conflicts of interests between countries. Lin Zheng didn't want Xiao Ai to
To understand these things, so as not to stain her pure heart!
Four years have passed in the blink of an eye. The little girl has grown into a graceful and beautiful girl, but her temperament has not changed much. Although it is not a good thing, Lin Zheng still hopes that she can maintain this innocence for a longer time. No
A carefree childhood must at least lead to a happy girlhood! If she knew that the result of their original actions was that more people would die, with this girl’s character, there would definitely be
I couldn’t be happy for a long time!
Seeing that this girl was still asking questions, Lin Zheng reached out and knocked on her forehead, "Okay! These things have nothing to do with us. Why do you care so much? Eat your food quickly! You are not clamoring to buy something.
Do you want something? Let’s go after we finish eating!”
Xiao Ai smiled sheepishly, but her eyes were bright. She was already a big girl. She knew that beautiful girls need to dress up. Recently, I saw a lot of beautiful ladies. They all have a lot of beautiful jewelry and nice-looking hairpins.
Zi Bu Yao, she also wants one. Brother Zheng is a fool. He always combs her hair like a maid. Although it looks good with a ribbon tied around it, she has grown up and it feels a bit silly to always comb her hair like a maid.
.
After casually ordering something late, Xiao Ai said that he was full. After calling out, he found that Lin Zheng had no response and was just staring blankly outside the building. Seeing this, Xiao Ai was not surprised. As long as Brother Zheng is free,
It will be like this. I know that Brother Zheng is missing his family, but I am still very curious! The sister-in-law who is always carrying her is already very beautiful, what are the other sisters-in-law like?
"Brother Zheng!"
Under Xiao Ai's repeated calls, Lin Zheng came out of his daze, but he was obviously not fully awake yet, so he shouted casually: "Fit, pay the bill!"
Wrong call again! Seeing Lin Zheng slap his head after reacting, Xiao Ai pursed his lips and smiled, then asked: "Brother Zheng, that sister named Feite must be very capable?!"
Hearing this, Feite's serious face appeared in Lin Zheng's mind, and he immediately laughed and said: "Yes! Feite is the best maid in the world, but sometimes she also makes mistakes.
Confused, but no matter what, he is much better than Ah Da Ah Er!"
Just after Lin Zheng finished speaking, Xiao Ai saw Ah Da and Ah Er's expressions of disapproval, even a little unconvinced, and immediately covered her mouth and snickered.
While Xiao Ai was snickering, Lin Zheng helped Xuan Ming, who was leaning on his shoulders, and stood up. He quickly put Xuan Ming on his back and then turned around and said, "Don't be dissatisfied! It's just you two! Let's be the same again."
No servant of ten thousand years can compare to Fite!"
"Sir! I don't agree with what you say!" Ah Da said unconvinced, "We are men. We can't compare to Miss Feite in terms of serving you, but in terms of strength..."
"The gap between you in terms of strength is even greater!" Lin Zheng said with a smile, "If you want to compete with Feite in strength, let's wait until you succeed in the ninth rank!" After saying that, Lin Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled up the smiling little boy.
Ai then left. Ah Da and Ah Er behind him looked at each other in confusion. Isn't the young master bragging? A ninth-level expert will be his maid?
Lin Zheng didn't care what those two guys were thinking. Thinking of those people at home again, he felt a little depressed at the moment. He needed to divert his attention to avoid being immersed in memories all the time. After a long time, his personality was...
It would be twisted. He didn't want the ladies and darlings at home not to recognize him after he went back! He turned to look at Xiao Ai and said with a smile: "So, what do you want to buy?"
Regarding this, Xiao Ai had already captured the target. As soon as Lin Zheng finished speaking, she pulled Lin Zheng towards the restaurant across the street. Not long after, she came to a splendid commercial building and said with shining eyes.
: "This is it!"
Lin Zheng looked up and saw the three bright characters Jin Furui hanging on the door. When he looked at the lady entering and exiting the commercial building, he immediately smiled. Unknowingly, Xiao Ai had reached the age where he knew how to dress up.
!
Xiao Ai couldn't wait to pull Lin Zheng and was about to rush in. An old man in rough clothes rushed up. He accidentally bumped into Xiao Ai. Seeing that the old man was about to fall, Xiao Ai quickly let go of Lin Zheng.
Zheng rushed forward, but luckily he was able to hold the person back!
After standing firm, the old man smiled and said, "Thank you, little girl!"
Xiao Ai hurriedly said: "It's time for me to say sorry, old man. I was walking in a hurry just now and accidentally bumped into you!"
The old man felt happy for a while and said with a smile: "Old man, I am also walking in a hurry, so let's not talk about the other!"
A tolerant old man is still very popular. Lin Zheng stepped forward and said: "I'm really sorry, old man, my sister-in-law was a little reckless!"
"It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter!" The old man smiled and waved. After saying that, he saw Lin Zheng carrying a big package on his back, and his face was a little surprised. After seeing the hair exposed in the package, he couldn't help but ask:
"Little brother, this is..."
Lin Zheng knew what the old man was referring to, so he said: "This is my wife. She has been sleeping hard because of a strange disease, so I have to take her around the world, hoping to find a way to wake her up. Unfortunately..." After finishing speaking,
He sighed, looking helpless and exhausted.
"That's it!" The old man nodded suddenly, and then said with admiration: "The fact that the little brother can never leave his wife is really a touching story. It's a pity that there are no outstanding doctors in Yuanshan Mansion.
Brothers, if you want to find a famous doctor, you might as well go to Jiuyin Mountain. It is said that the immortals there have superb medical skills and can heal the dead!"
The fact that the dead can be cured is not surprising outside, but it is nonsense here in Kyushu! However, since people were kind to others, Lin Zheng naturally wanted to treat them with courtesy, so he said with a grateful expression: "Thank you very much.
Thank you very much for the advice from the old man!"
The old man smiled and said: "I wish my little brother and his wife a speedy recovery and a harmonious and beautiful life!"
"Thank you, old man, for your kind words!"
While talking, several people entered the magnificent Jin Furui. Once inside, Xiao Ai felt that his eyes were not full! The interior of the commercial building was very spacious, divided into different areas with different jewelry.
A piece of beautifully made jewelry is displayed in a crystal display case. Under the bright lights, it shines with a light that makes women fascinated! Lin Zheng discovered that not only Xiao Ai, but also all the women who came here, the look in their eyes
They are all almost the same, and I feel like I can’t wait to pack them all up and take them home and slowly pick them out.
"Welcome!" Two girls with sweet smiles came forward. When they saw Lin Zheng carrying someone on his back, they looked surprised. When they looked at Xiao Ai, they wanted to hold this girl in their arms and love her.
Fan, so cute!
"Brother Zheng——!" Xiao Ai looked at Lin Zheng expectantly. Under this gaze, Lin Zheng could not refuse this girl's request no matter what! Then he smiled and nodded her forehead: "I like it.
Just pick whatever you want, why do you expect me to give you any advice?"
After hearing this, Xiao Ai ran away happily. What made Lin Zheng dumbfounded was that as soon as Xiao Ai left, the two girls followed him. Their eyes shone so brightly that they looked like two idiots. If they were not girls,
Lin Zheng may not be able to hold back his fists!
At this time, the old man next to him laughed and said: "Your girl is so bright and pretty, so it's normal for her to be lovable!"
Hearing the old man's voice, Lin Zheng remembered him, turned around and said with a smile: "Did the old man prepare a dowry for his daughter?"
The old man laughed heartily after hearing this, then shook his head and said, "It would be great if I had a lovely daughter! What a pity, the family is full of useless brats!" After changing the subject, he turned to Lin
Zheng said: "I'm here to customize jewelry for my young lady. This lady! When she was young, she went to the border to serve as a soldier. She left there for seven years! No, the jewelry at home will no longer be available.
We need to quickly order a batch for her before she comes back. Girls don’t have a few eye-catching jewelry. They always dress like a tomboy, how can they get married?"
Looking at the worried old man, Lin Zheng was a little surprised and said: "Your young lady ran to join the army? After seven years in the army, didn't she go to the battlefield when the war with Qingzhou started?"
"No! How can a little girl learn to fight like a man on the battlefield? The swords on this battlefield have no eyes. What to do if you get injured? Can't you just stay in the embroidery building and wait for your husband to come to the door?!"
Lin Zheng smiled and said nothing. Although the old man was chattering, his brows were full of joy and pride. He was showing off his young lady to Lin Zheng!
"Then little brother, the old man won't say any more to you. My wife is waiting for me. I have to quickly find the manager of this house and ask for some drawings and let her choose carefully!"
"Okay, old sir, I won't bother you anymore!" After saying that, Lin Zheng said goodbye to the old man. After watching the old man walk towards a girl who was a shopping guide, he also started shopping.
The public is always full of creativity. After a long period of cultural accumulation, famous craftsmen and craftsmen have integrated this culture to create exquisite jewelry. Such creativity cannot be matched by Lin Zheng alone.
!Xiao Ai reminded Lin Zheng that as long as she is a woman, she will like jewelry. If it is made by herself, the women at home will definitely like it more. Think about it carefully, except for the two giant dragons, Hui Ye and Yang Qi,
It seems that I really haven’t given them many things. This needs to be reviewed, so now I am ready to learn from others. As for plagiarizing other people’s designs, don’t they know about it? Besides, we won’t copy it, we will make changes later!
When I was looking at it with great interest, a noise suddenly sounded, and I felt a little dizzy. It turned out that the little snake in Xiao Ai's arms came out. There were mostly women in the commercial building. Suddenly I saw a snake appear, and I was not frightened.
It’s weird to jump! However, after seeing the little snake coiling docilely on Xiao Ai’s shoulders, these people finally realized that it was Xiao Ai’s pet! After they calmed down, several mean women pointed at Xiao Ai
Oh, what you say is ugly. If you raise a snake, you will become a snake-hearted person? How can it be more poisonous than your lousy mouth?! A little girl told you that her tears were rolling, don't you have some moral integrity?
Not only did he say it, but he became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke!
Originally, Lin Zheng felt that something was wrong with him and was ready to settle the matter, but now he was so angry that he stepped forward and slapped away the woman who was talking most enthusiastically with a "pop-" sound!
"Brother Zheng!" Seeing Lin Zheng coming over, Xiao Ai immediately rushed towards him like a nestling swallow, sobbing aggrievedly in Lin Zheng's arms. The little snake on the shoulder no longer looked docile.
Staring at those women coldly, as soon as Lin Zheng made a sound, he would never be polite to these guys!
Lin Zheng stretched out his hand and patted the little snake's head. It was really not the right time for this little thing to wake up! Just as he was comforting Xiao Ai, the old man from before came over. When he saw the situation, the old man who was not sure of the situation stepped forward in surprise.
, "Oh, my dear daughter! What's going on?"
Before Lin Zheng could explain, the woman who was slapped away by Lin Zheng had already climbed up, covered her face and shouted sharply: "Where are you from, you bastard? How dare you hit your aunt me?!"
As soon as the words fell, the women who had just spoken out immediately started to criticize Lin Zheng and the others with the same hatred. Lin Zheng's temper was not very good to begin with, especially when it came to his relatives and friends, he was even more fiery! Hearing the sharp voice in his ears
The corners of his eyes trembled as he screamed. Anyone who knew him knew that this was a precursor to his explosion!
As a result, before Lin Zheng could explode, the old man got mad first! He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Shut up, everyone!!"
"Old guy, who do you think you are?!" After the sarcastic voice finished speaking, the old man slapped him in the face. He looked so angry that he had the aura of a gangster!
After being shocked, the old man pointed at the frightened women and cursed: "All the well-dressed court officials are like shrews in the market, saying evil words to a little girl without knowing how to restrain themselves.
?!Do you still want to show some shame?!"
It's okay if the old man didn't say it. After saying this, these women remembered that they were the wives of officials, and now they were pointed at their noses and yelled at by the peasants. It was a great shame and humiliation!
Several men standing beside them, whether they were husbands or pretty boys, were even angrier than them. One of them rushed out unexpectedly and kicked the old man to the ground. Seeing this,
The women immediately shouted with distorted expressions: "Hit me! Beat me hard! Let this old immortal have a longer memory!" The woman whose face was swollen by Lin Zheng pointed at Lin Zheng's two men ferociously.
One shouted: "There are still these two bastards! Beat me! If you beat me to death, you will get a reward!!"
"There's a reward, right?" As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zheng slapped him away. Before he could touch the woman, the woman flew out several teeth. Then he took a step forward and kicked away the people beside the old man.
The pretty boy picked up the injured old man and said, "I'm sorry, old man, I got you involved!"
The old man coughed and then cursed angrily: "These damn little beasts, old man, I am so old, I can really do this to you!"
After hearing this, Lin Zheng was a little dumbfounded. You know that you are old, so why don't you show off? With such a vicious mouth, how can you expect them to respect the old and love the young?!
