Of course, the younger brothers of the Xinghan Hui don’t know what domestic demand is and what the origin of raw materials is.
They are still in a very primitive state of ignorance. They only know that if there is a conflict between Han and Wu, the coarse sugar from Jiaozhou and Jingzhou may not be able to enter.
Then they think, why is there a risk that my income will decrease?
It's all to blame for Sun Quan proclaiming himself emperor.
It’s all my fault that Soochow took away Jingzhou.
It's all the Guan family's fault... This doesn't count!
If you speak out, you might be beaten to death.
The risk of being choked with raw materials finally gave everyone in the Xinghan Club a sense of crisis for the first time.
If there is a crisis, the crisis must be solved.
How to deal with it?
If you have any questions, of course go to the leader.
But the big brother who takes the lead is too far away. Fortunately, Erha... brother has returned to Jincheng, so who should I look for if I don't look for you?
Zhao Guang listened to the requests of the younger brothers and thought to himself, "The younger brothers value me so much. As the second brother of the Xinghan Association, I have to help think of ideas no matter what."
But now I only have an empty name...
Thinking of this, Zhao Guang let out a "tsk" sound, and became even more impatient: No matter how hard he looked, he had to go to his brother to find a solution.
But my brother has already told me in Longyou that if you dare to go to him without getting married, your legs will be broken.
You don't want to use it anyway.
At this time, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and someone walked in quickly.
Everyone sitting or standing in the yard turned their heads and saw Li Yizheng walking in with someone.
"Hey, Wenxuan, didn't you say you went to Nanzhong?"
Zhao Guang, who was sitting in the middle, stood up and asked.
Because of the hot weather, Li Yi was sweating profusely.
The younger brother, who had already woken up, poured a bowl of tea that had been dried and handed it over.
Li Yi drank it down, then sat down on the chair and took a breath, "I just came back from Wei County and haven't entered the city yet. I heard you guys were gathering here, so I came over."
A few days ago, he rushed back to Jincheng from Longyou and explained some things. Because he was worried about his master, he only stayed in Jincheng for one day and hurriedly continued southward.
Fortunately, Dongfeng Express has continuously explored the waterway from Jincheng to Bodao in recent years, and it has become a very mature inland waterway.
Therefore, it is relatively fast to go down the river and then take the Wuchi Road from Bodao to Zhuti County and then to Wei County, the county seat of Jianning County (Weixian County is also the seat of the Governor of Nijiang).
What is a bit surprising is that Li Yi turned back so quickly.
"I was in a hurry last time and forgot to ask you when you were going to get married?"
Li Yi asked Zhao Guang.
"May sixteenth."
Zhao Guang replied.
"Is it a good day?"
Zhao Guang touched his head and said, "I heard that my mother-in-law went to beg General Zuo Zhonglang and chose this day."
The general on the left is Du Qiong.
When Feng Yong got married, Du Qiong personally helped choose the date, and also approved a sentence: a beautiful girl will guard the mountains and tigers will make her husband prosperous; a good son will come down to earth, and his wife will protect his children.
This is already a very big deal.
Because Du Qiong was also the one who persuaded the late emperor to ascend the throne with the theory of the number of days.
Like Zhao Guang this time, the wife of the Zhao family came to ask for help for a long time in person, but she didn't even meet her in person.
Du Qiong only asked someone to hand over a date. As for any comments he wanted, he couldn't even think about it.
Li Yi heard this and nodded, "Since it was approved by General Zuo Zhonglang, it must be a good day, so I will choose that day too."
Zhao Guang didn't think much about it, and said with joy on his face: "That's just right, I'm afraid it will be more lively then."
However, Deng Liang, the leader of Jincheng Hall of the Xinghan Hui, was more prudent, "Wenxuan, you are so anxious, but what happened?"
Li Yi pointed at the person he brought, "What are you doing standing there? Talk!"
The person who came had a smile on his face and clasped his fists at everyone: "Li Feng has met all of you brothers."
Li Feng?
Many people are a little confused: Who is this?
However, Zhao Guang reacted immediately: "It's you!"
Just now, he felt that this person looked familiar, and since Wenxuan brought him here, he subconsciously thought he was one of his own.
I just thought it must be some unusual brother, so I didn’t think much about it.
Who would have thought it was Li Yan who was his son!
"It's my little brother."
Li Feng saluted Zhao Guang again.
"What a thief, how dare you come here! You are seeking death!"
Zhao Guang looked around, picked up the chair and wanted to throw it over.
"Erlang, what are you doing!"
Li Yi quickly jumped up and hugged him, "They are all our brothers!"
"Who can be his brother?" Zhao Guang's face turned red and he glared at Li Feng, "I don't have such a brother!"
"Wenxuan, let me go and let me beat him to death!"
Zhao Guang was very powerful and was able to lead Li Yi two steps forward.
"Weizhe come and help!"
Li Yi shouted.
Deng Liang quickly stepped forward, stood in front of Zhao Guang, and pressed against the other end of the chair, "Erlang, calm down!"
"How to calm down? How do you want me to calm down?"
Zhao Guang is like Erha running wild, and no one can hold him back. "I followed my brother and worked hard, and then I got the title of general. It's because of him..."
"No, no, this matter has nothing to do with Haoxuan."
Li Yi quickly persuaded.
"What's the difference between him and the adults in his family?"
Zhao Guang was still furious.
With a wry smile and apology on his face, Li Feng repeatedly handed over his hands.
Li Yi saw that he couldn't hold Zhao Guang back, so he had to resort to a deadly weapon: "Brother, I have something to say to you!"
Just as Erha saw the kitchen knife prepared to cut dog meat, Zhao Guang froze on the spot when he heard Li Yi shouting like this.
He held up the chair, lowered his head, and looked at Li Yi, who was holding his waist, with doubt on his face: "Seriously?"
Li Yi raised his head and said sincerely: "Really, if you want to return to the army as soon as possible, just listen to me and put down the chair first."
Zhao Guang looked at Li Feng, then at Li Yi, thought for a while, and then put down the chair hesitantly.
Li Yi wiped his sweat, then stood up, carefully arranged the chair, and sat down with Zhao Guang, "Before I came back this time, I went to see my brother, and he specifically explained a few things."
Paralyzing the Li family's big house is just one of them.
"Brother said that the Qiang Protector's Office is currently short of manpower and lacks generals who can lead the army..."
Before Li Yi finished speaking, Zhao Guang's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Why did I lie to you? That Liu Hun is the Xiongnu who worked under my brother before. He had good luck, made great achievements, and was promoted to an official position."
"Now that he has been transferred to the Longyou Governor's Mansion, my brother told me personally that he has no shortage of cavalry under his command, but he is short of people to lead the cavalry."
Li Yi quickly explained.
"Cavalry? Cavalry is good, cavalry..."
Zhao Guang's mouth was watering, "Among the brothers, when it comes to leading the cavalry, who is more suitable than me?"
I remembered that my brother asked me to learn more about cavalry commanding last year. Did I have this plan for a long time?
Zhao Guang couldn't help but dance a little: "Brother really still loves me!"
He was silly and happy for a while, and then he remembered something, "When will brother let me go?"
"Of course it will be after you get married."
"Good, good, great!"
Zhao Guang couldn't help being happy.
But when he saw Li Feng standing there from the corner of his eye, his face couldn't help but darken again, "What does this matter have to do with him?"
"What do you know?" Li Yi stopped him again, "Brother wrote a letter to Haoxuan last year. Haoxuan also understands the righteousness. This time he came to Jincheng, and there is really something big."
Zhao Guang looked at Li Yi suspiciously.
Li Yi had no choice but to whisper: "This matter is of great importance. You will know tomorrow."
After hearing this, Zhao Guang reluctantly nodded: "Sure, Wenxuan, you have always had an idea. Since you said so, I will wait for another day."
Li Yi looked at everyone again and said, "As for the Soochow jaggery matter, you don't have to worry too much."
"I won't hide it from everyone until now. In fact, there have been rumors about Sun Quan proclaiming himself emperor in Soochow for a long time, so my brother has also heard about it and has made some inferences about this matter."
Everyone was a little horrified when they heard this.
But when I think about it, I think it’s very reasonable.
After all, in Soochow, I heard that the relationship between the brothers is not small.
If Sun Quan wants to become emperor, he must at least have time to prepare, and he will definitely not be able to hide it from people who are interested.
So it was possible that someone had passed on the news that Sun Quan wanted to proclaim himself emperor in advance.
"Brother told me not to make any wild guesses, just wait with peace of mind."
Hearing that their brother had already made the inference, everyone could finally feel relieved.
I saw Li Yi pointing at Li Feng, "But when I returned to Nanzhong this time, when I passed Zhu Ti, Haoxuan took the initiative to find me and told me something about the matter between Dahan and Soochow."
"Although I can't say it right now, Haoxuan has really tried his best on this matter. If what he said can come true, everyone will have to thank him in the future, so please be patient for a while."
With a little shyness on his face, Li Feng faced everyone's gaze and said, "Wenxuan deserves the award. Feng is just doing his best to serve as a minister."
Li Yiben was one of the first people to follow his brother. He returned to Shu after going to see his brother. In addition, he was still a member of the army in the Prime Minister's Palace.
Now that they had his guarantee, everyone felt relieved for the time being.
Zhao Guang was extremely excited when he learned that his brother had not abandoned him, and that he was going to get his wish and get married to the Huang family's sister.
Old General Zhao is now leading the army outside. Zhao Erlang is back at home and has no more nemesis.
Unable to restrain his excitement, he ran directly to the martial arts training ground and started humming and having fun.
Mrs. Zhao Ma knew that her youngest son had been feeling resentful since he was demoted from Longyou back to Jincheng.
As Zhao Guang's mother, she knew that her youngest son had always liked a woman from the Huang family.
But at this time, even though the two were preparing to get married, the younger son seemed happy in front of others, but often felt a little lonely behind the scenes. This shows how much the blow to him was caused by being demoted.
Today, I heard from my servants that my youngest son was very happy after returning home, and even took the initiative to go to the martial arts training ground to practice martial arts.
I was happy but also a little strange, so I went to the martial arts training ground to look for him.
As expected, the youngest son was there, shouting and shouting lively and vigorously.
"Did Erlang encounter a happy event today?"
Zhao Mashi greeted.
As soon as Zhao Guang saw his mother, he quickly came over to greet her.
"The marriage is getting closer, and I was worried that Erlang wouldn't be able to untie the knot. Now that I see you like this, I can finally feel relieved."
Mrs. Zhao Ma looked at Zhao Guang and said with relief.
When Zhao Guang heard his mother mentioning the marriage, his expression became even more excited: "After hearing what my mother said, I want to discuss something with my mother."
"What's the matter?"
Zhao Ma asked curiously.
"My child wants to get married as soon as possible, is that okay?"
Zhao Guang asked a little embarrassedly.
When Zhao Ma heard this, he was a little surprised: "Why?"
"Things are a bit urgent."
Zhao Guang rubbed his hands.
"Urgent? How urgent?" When Zhao Ma heard this, he was a little surprised. What could be more urgent than getting married?
The date has obviously been set, but my son suddenly wants to advance it. How can such a big event be changed by just changing it?
No, unless it's because...
Zhao Ma suddenly thought of a possibility, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared, "How many months has it been?"
Zhao Guang clapped his fingers and said, "Although it's only been three months, I think it's been long enough..."
Zhao Ma's face changed. She pointed at his nose and yelled: "What do you mean it's only been three months?! Three months!"
The Huang family girl went to Longyou to look for him, didn't it take exactly three months?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao Ma confirmed her thoughts: It turned out that this bastard couldn't hide it any more, so he was anxious to get married to her!
She was anxious and angry, but at the same time she felt a little relaxed: This daughter of the Huang family has indeed been cured.
Zhao Guang, on the other hand, looked confused, not understanding why his mother suddenly became excited.
"You kid, you really piss me off! You know how much effort I put into asking that Du Qiong to find a good life! You, you, you..."
Seeing Zhao Guang's appearance, Mrs. Zhao Ma was so angry that she trembled, "You...since you can't help it, why don't you come back and get married as soon as possible?"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She hurried past him, pulled out a wooden gun from the edge of the martial arts field, pointed it at him and cursed: "Come here, let's see if I don't beat you to death!"
"Why did my mother hit me?"
Zhao Guang thought it was really ridiculous.
In the past, when the lord was at home, my mother always protected me.
Now that the master has gone outside, how come my mother has taken over the stick from the master?
Could it be that I, Zhao Erlang, am incompatible with this martial arts training ground?
Zhao Ma didn't care about him. He pulled over with a roar and cursed: "You still dare to ask? You didn't tell me until three months ago! Do you still care about me as your mother?"
Zhao Guang turned around and wanted to run away, but Zhao Ma, who was the master of Zhao family's marksmanship and Ma family's marksmanship, directly blocked his escape route.
With a "bang" sound, Zhao Guang screamed, jumped up, and was forced back into the martial arts training ground.
Although he had a wooden gun in his hand, in Zhao Ma's hand, many shadows of the gun danced out, and the wind blew, giving Zhao Guang a feeling of chill.
"Mom, if you have something to say, please tell me!"
Zhao Guang's eyes were dazzled, and he couldn't hide for a while. He was hit several times all at once, and he screamed in pain.
"What's there to say?"
Zhao Mashi took another shot.
"My child is wrong. I know I am wrong. Mother, please spare my life!"
Zhao Guang really didn't know why his mother suddenly went berserk. She had to bow her head under the stick and had to admit her mistake first.
"Mom, I won't change the date anymore. If we get married next month, we will get married next month. No rush, no rush!"
After thinking about it, it seems that this is the case?
