The horn sounded, and the sound spread far across the vast grassland. In a moment, the soldiers who had just been fighting together quickly returned to their own team, forming two neat teams. Two square formations, each with 3,000 people.
They were all riding on majestic horses. The group on the left was brightly armored and equipped with saddles and saddles. They had swords in their left hands and shields in their right hands. They carried a first-class bow on their backs. They struck each other with swords and shields. They paid tribute to Yang Hao who stood under the military flag with a thunderous voice.
.
The group of men and horses on the right all have red tasseled spears, short knives on their waists, and horn bow and quiver slung on their shoulders. The spears in their hands have a goose-egg-thick barrel, about one foot and eight inches long, and nearly one and a half feet made of fine steel.
The long spear blade shimmered with cold light and filled with murderous intent. They also raised their spears high and shouted three times at Yang Haoshan.
Yang Hao, with his arrow sleeves and light clothes, and his hair tied with a silver crown, is riding on a red horse, standing solemnly under the banner of Hunter Shengfeng, with a slight mustache on his lips, sharp eyes, and a majestic demeanor. Seeing that these two horses are well-trained
, a slight smile appeared on his serious face, he nodded approvingly to Mu En and Ai Yihai, the two generals leading the army, raised his horse's head and said, "Let's go to Liulichang to have a look."
Riding his horse out of the school grounds, Yang Hao said to Zhang Pu: "Very good. Zhong Fang and Yang Jiye are both handsome men. It's great to be able to use troops, but it's equally amazing to be able to train them. Isn't the Luzhou Lecture Hall established well? By
Zhong Lao was appointed as the chief teacher and Yang Jiye as the assistant teacher. The trained soldiers were transferred here and handed over to Mu En, Mu Kui and Ai Yihai to train them in actual combat. After a few battles, they became so powerful.
, no less than an elite soldier who has experienced many battles, especially those who came out of the martial arts hall. After a little tempering in the battle, they can serve as generals. In this way, our expanded army will not only occupy
Only with one person can we avoid becoming a rabble."
Zhang Pu smiled and said: "What the commander is saying is that the people who have been taught in the martial arts hall are even a little surprised even in low-level positions. Many of them have at least the talents of low-level generals, but they lack some battlefield experience, and
The warriors taught in the martial arts hall established by the Marshal are all disciples of the Marshal, which can prevent the breeding of factions in the army and form small groups that collude with each other to look after each other. Haha, the Marshal must have learned this from him.
Is it the Zhao Guan family’s idea?”
Yang Hao laughed and said: "They have good things, why don't we use them?" After saying that, he whipped his horse and galloped away. Zhang Pu followed him immediately with dozens of guards and asked the horse to let go.
Four hooves galloping on the grassland in the wind.
Two years have passed since Yang Hao concurrently served as the Jiedushi of Hengshan and the Jiedushi of Dingnan. During these two years, Yang Hao rested, trained troops in the fields, opened factories, developed commerce, set up schools, stocked up on civil and military affairs, and developed water conservancy projects.
, providing various convenient conditions for farming and animal husbandry. In two years, his territory has undergone rapid changes and has undergone earth-shaking changes.
This change is not only the strong force of force and the rapid development of economic strength, but more importantly, it has won the hearts and minds of the people for him. All the people in the land he has occupied, whether they believe in Buddhism or not, have regarded him as a rain of sweet rain.
With the great prestige of Yang Hao and the unswerving support from the Buddhist community, his loan system and judicial system have been established, and now he is starting to establish a standing army. This is to transfer force from
The first step for each tribe to collect.
Today, Yang Hao has established a standing army of six armies: Feilong, Feihu, Feibao, Feilang, Feiying, and Pegasus. These six armies are selected from the elites of tribal warriors and troops from different factions.
It was completely in his own hands to break up, mix and reorganize. At the same time, he set up a martial arts hall in Luzhou, and Zhongfang trained him according to the standards of a general school. Generals such as Yang Jiye also rushed to the martial arts hall from time to time to train themselves.
Tactics and battle formation experience were imparted to each other, and the students he taught were then broken up into various ranks that had become a standing army. Starting from the grassroots level, the most powerful force under his command has now been completely digested and absorbed by him.
The territory Li Guangrui originally ruled, including Suizhou, Jingzhou, Youzhou, and their adjacent areas, was in the hands of Li Guangrui's remnants. Yang Hao used non-war means such as cannibalization, exclusion, wooing, and division to force him to
Jingzhou and Youzhou had internal mutinies and changed their tribunals and surrendered to his command. As for Suizhou, its periphery had been gradually eroded by Zhe Yuxun and Yang Jiye and was completely swallowed up.
Now there is only one lonely city left in Suizhou, which will fall down if he breathes on it. The reason why Yang Hao still leaves it untouched is because the governor of Suizhou is clearly in a desperate situation and can hardly support his troops, but he is still determined not to do it.
Jiang, Suizhou is located in the periphery. Yang Hao doesn't want to break up with Zhao Guangyi yet. It's not worth it for Suizhou, which is just a piece of useless land now.
As expected by Yang Hao, the son of Li Twelve, the governor of Suizhou, and Li Pilu, the former governor of Suizhou, did not live past the age of twelve. The reason why Yang Hao asserted this at the beginning was because since the Five Dynasties, there has never been a young man in the troubled times.
If a person can secure his position, even if the generals under him who control a large number of troops have no ambitions, the subordinate officers of these generals will not be willing to obey an ignorant boy. If their commander is promoted one step further, their status will also rise.
Why not?
Li Twelve died of an "illness" last year. He died of a "severe illness" seven days before his birthday. The current Suizhou governor is unknown. It is said that he was a cousin of Li Pilu named Li Pishou. Yang Hao asked Li's direct lineage
The tribesmen inquired and found out that Li Pilu, the governor of Suizhou, did have such a cousin. He had been sick since childhood, so he practiced writing but not martial arts. He was a low-key man. Because he was a close relative of Li Pilu and he was indeed knowledgeable, he was appointed as the chief historian of Suizhou.
.
Yang Hao expected that this person must be a puppet. The person who really holds the power in Suizhou should be a military general. However, Suizhou is full of soldiers, and the entrance and exit are very strict. The upper-class people rarely appear in public, so they have never been able to control the power of Suizhou.
The real news, but now Suizhou is no longer in his eyes, so he doesn't pay too much attention to it.
Under Yang Hao, there are now civil servants such as Xiao Yan, Xu Xuan, Ding Chengzong, Lin Pengyu, Fan Siqi, Qin Jiang, Lu Yuxuan, Xi Chuyun, and generals including Yang Jiye, Zhang Pu, Mu En, Mu Kui, Ai Yihai, Li Huating,
He Bining, Tuoba Haofeng, Li Jitan, Zhang Chongwei, Ke Zhen'e, and a large number of civil and military personnel who have recently joined the army.
And his secret agent team "Feiyu" merged with the "Fire Phoenix" trained by Dong'er personally, and now they have divided into more detailed functions. The inner city guard force is controlled by Dong'er, the secret agents are controlled by Tang Yanyan, and Zhu
Yun and Gou'er are responsible for the core part of "Fire Phoenix" and are directly responsible for him. It can be said that people are making the best use of them and there are many talents.
War horses were galloping, and a horse came galloping from a distance. Each person on the horse was dressed in green clothes and covered his face with gauze. Yang Hao knew as soon as he saw Ma Yi that he had arrived.
The dog arrived at Yang Hao's side, turned his horse around briskly, rode alongside him, and said crisply: "Uncle, the news I just received is that the Tubo Shangbo Qianbu, the Big Stone Clan, the Little Stone Clan, the An family, and the Yan family have
The family is holding an alliance, accusing the uncle of sending troops to invade south and west to seize their territory. They also used the Qingshui Covenant as proof. Shang Boqian, Tu Bu, Wang Nizhu and other Tubo leaders have jointly sent envoys to Bianliang
Please ask Emperor Song to uphold justice for them."
Yang Hao laughed when he heard this and said: "They are not good at fighting, and it seems they are not good at quarreling. If you want to ask Zhao Guangyi for justice, just go and cry to him. Why bother to pull out the "Clear Water Covenant" when everything is fine? Zhao Guangyi was the emperor of the Song Dynasty.
They are not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Those territories were ceded to them by the weak and incompetent Emperor Dezong Li Shi of the Tang Dynasty. They moved out the "Clear Water Covenant". If Zhao Guangyi is willing to support them, wouldn't that be talking about his own mouth?"
Gou'er pursed his lips and smiled. Under the thin black gauze, his skin was as white as snow, with two dimples faintly visible. He was indescribably charming: "Uncle, don't be so confident. Zhao Guangyi doesn't want to stand up for them openly, so that doesn't necessarily mean he won't.
Help them secretly and hold them back."
Yang Hao said thoughtfully: "Well, it's not impossible. In these few conflicts with them, our army has made small gains. The captured ordnance is well-made and has uniform specifications. Although it does not have the seal of the Song Dynasty engraved on it, it has
There is absolutely no way these tribes can produce that. And their military rations include a large amount of rice and wheat. This is not the cattle, sheep and highland barley they are used to eating. Maybe..."
Yang Hao turned his head and said: "Dog..."
The dog's head was slightly tilted, and even though her face was covered by black gauze, she could still feel that she was making a face to Yang Hao: "Uncle, don't worry, Sister Zhuyun has gone to Qinzhou to investigate the truth in person."
Yang Hao nodded, and then told Zhang Pu on the side: "Those places cannot be taken by Zhao Guan's family, why don't you let me take them? But... my current goal is to go west, and it is not suitable to compete with Zhao Guan's family for the time being.
It’s better to restrain ourselves. The movement to the south is temporarily suspended, but we can’t leave them free. Let the two tribes of Chibangsong and Luodan deal with them. If there are any needs for food, fodder, ordnance, feel free to satisfy them.”
Zhang Pu nodded in agreement.
Liulichang is located in a place more than ten miles outside Xiazhou City. It covers a wide area and is like a farm. It is one of the many factories dotted around Xiazhou. Along the way, the sheep are like white clouds, and the cattle are like white clouds.
Then mooing happily, three or five shepherds, with the help of sheepdogs, can take care of a large area of cattle and sheep.
Seeing Marshal Yang returning from the military camp ahead, the enthusiastic herdsmen invited him to stop his horse with joyous songs and dances and sit in the tent to rest. Yang Hao couldn't bear their kindness, so he dismounted the horse with Zhang Pu and the dog, and arrived
In an old shepherd's tent, it was almost dinner time. The hostess of the felt tent was serving food. When she saw her husband, she invited Yang Dashuai over and she was busy grilling the delicious mutton and roasting the mutton.
The legs, highland barley is clear, and the milk skin is presented.
Yang Hao and the owner of the felt tent sat across from each other, had a drink, and picked a few things to fill their stomachs.
The grasslands near Xiazhou are very fertile. Although it is close to the Mu Us Desert to the north, Xiazhou City also looks like it is gradually becoming desertified. However, because the city was chosen to be built based on several tributaries of the Yellow River, the desert ends here. It is like an oasis here. The mountains on all sides block the cold air currents, making the land fertile and the pastures fertile. The green grasslands in the Hetao area are natural pastures. When water is diverted for irrigation, fertile fields will be established, which can be said to be suitable for farming and grazing.
In the past two years, Yang Hao has built water conservancy projects and encouraged industry and commerce. The people here are the most direct beneficiaries. Their families immediately become richer. They also imitate the Han people to grow grains, vegetables, fruits and vegetables in front of and behind their tents. From time to time, they can also ride on bicycles. Get on your horse and go hunting, and drive some oxen, wild deer and other game, and your days are really comfortable.
Yang Hao and Zhang Pu couldn't resist the kindness of their host, so they each drank three bowls of highland barley wine and ate a few pieces of plump hand-chopped mutton before saying goodbye and leaving for Liulichang.
This Liulichang was invested and built by Ibn Abi Talib, a businessman from the food country. It was called Liulichang just to adapt to the local naming convention. In fact, what this workshop produced was not colored glaze, but glass. Made in Zhongyuan The glass from the West is opaque and brittle. The glass windows from the West can withstand high temperatures and can be used as eating utensils. They are crystal clear and as bright as crystal. In addition, they were shipped from the West and traveled thousands of miles and bumped into each other. Therefore, glass products that can be shipped to the Central Plains intact are valuable commodities that are worth as much as gold.
Originally, Yang Hao had not thought of this thing, but Talib brought a box of glass cups to Yang Hao as if he were offering a treasure. Such excellent quality glasses are worth tens of thousands of gold. Talib sent them all the way and also gave them to Yang Hao. No adult is happy to see it, but Yang Hao...where did Yang Hao come from? Glass is really hard for him to see.
However, he also knew how precious this glass was, and he also knew how important the role glass would play in the future in the continuous development of human science, technology, and cultural knowledge. He immediately began to covet it. How to make glass.
Talib naturally understands the value of this thing better, and he is not willing to tell the production method of it easily. However, he wants to develop the trade routes from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, and even wants to monopolize the exclusive sales rights of several of the most profitable products. Without Yang Hao's support, Cui Dalang has benefited greatly from Yang Hao's current expansion of power. He spared no effort to support Yang Hao, so he also helped Yang Hao to negotiate.
In the end, it was Yang Hao who signed a formal document, agreeing that after the completion of the glaze factory, Talib would operate it exclusively for fifteen years. After that, Yang Hao could use this technology and workers to carry out official production. Talib then spent a lot of money to invite several people. Western glass craftsmen came here to build factories. As a result, China's first patent law was naturally completed in the hands of Yang Hao.
Yang Hao rushed to Liulichang, where Cui Dalang, Miaomiao and Talib, a businessman from Dashi Country, heard the news and hurriedly came out to welcome them.
"Official."
As soon as she saw Yang Hao, Miaomiao screamed with joy. Miaomiao was wearing a crimson round-necked official uniform, a jade belt around her waist, and an official hat with lop-eared ears on her head. If it weren't for her appearance, she would be slender and slender. His figure looked too rosy, making him look like a romantic and handsome young man.
Yang Hao covered her lips and coughed. Miaomiao quickly suppressed her happy smile, bowed her head to him in a polite manner, and said in a long voice: "I have seen the commander-in-chief, Lin Yinshao."
"Ahem, no courtesy, stay on your own."
Seeing the seriousness of the couple, the dog couldn't help but laugh, "Puff", and quickly turned his face to the side.
Miaomiao is not taking care of some industrial and commercial affairs on his behalf as Yang Hao's concubine like when she was in Yinzhou. She is now an official official in the Jieshuai Mansion responsible for industry and commerce. There are female officials in every court. , but female officials have always only been in charge of the Shang Palace Bureau, Shang Yi Bureau, Shang Fu Bureau, Shang Food Bureau, Shang Bed Bureau, Shang Gong Bureau and other palace affairs in the palace. No female official has ever appeared in public to handle external government affairs. However, Yang Hao set this precedent.
Now not only does Miaomiao have a formal official position, but all his four wives and concubines, including Mu Qingxuan, Ding Yuluo, and Tianjiu, all hold certain official positions. There are more or less female officials interspersed.
Yang Hao's appointment of female officials was initially met with resistance no less than his implementation of the household loan system and the reduction of judicial power. However, the various ethnic groups in the northwest region lived together, and the rules and precepts were not so strict, and the Confucian disciples at this time were not as stupid and corrupt as they would later be. After a period of implementation of Nigu's stinky problems, the opponents found that it did not cause serious damage. Families were broken up and scandals abounded, so the opposition gradually subsided.
In addition, when Yang Hao appoints officials, he cannot use people who are illiterate, and most of the people who are literate and capable of writing are women from wealthy families and noble families. At this time, the male and female defenses in the Central Plains have not arrived. At the point where women also have a considerable social status, not to mention the noble ladies in the northwest region. They are able to get up, and the resistance from the upper class is weakened. In this way, women are promoted from top to bottom to join politics and become officials. There is even less market for preachers who treat Si Chen as if he were a mother and it is contrary to natural principles.
Yang Hao and Miaomiao formally met as officials, then turned to Talib and said with a smile: "Mr. Talib, I heard that the first batch of glassware has been fired?"
Talib smiled brightly and said: "Yes, the sample is very successful, so Dalang and I are anxious to invite you, sir, to have a look. Sir, please."
Yang Hao followed them into the workshop and saw some glassware that had been fired successfully on the table. Colored lights and candles were hung on the shed, making the crystal clear utensils dazzling and colorful. Yang Hao was used to seeing them. He saw the glass and didn't take it seriously at all, but like Zhang Pu, Gou'er and others, they were just like Miaomiao when they walked in. They were stunned and couldn't put it down looking at the utensils that were more precious than jade.
"Great, the utensils in this case can be sold for a lot of money. Haha, Mr. Talib can step up the production and sell them to Shangjing, Bianliang, and Nan through Dalang's trade channel. If you go to Dali, you can also sell it to Japan. If you go to Luzon, I am here to wish you lots of wealth."
Talib pouted his beard and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits: "I wish you good luck, and I wish you good luck."
Miaomiao glanced at him and said from the side: "Commander, Mr. Talib was just discussing with the slave... the lower official, hoping to give him more preferential treatment on taxes."
"Yes, yes." Talib said hurriedly: "Commander, the tax in my Liulichang is the highest. We are old friends. I was invited by Marshal Yang, so I went through all the trouble to hire him.
If I have a famous teacher and set up a factory here, the commander-in-chief should give me some discounts."
Yang Hao picked up a unique wine glass, looked at it, and shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Talib, although my taxes are very high, your profits are also ridiculously high. Moreover, these glasses
The cost of transporting it from your country is much lower than yours, which is thousands of miles away. Haha, the commodity tax on jewelry, jades, and jewelry is set at the highest level. This is the tax law set by me.
How can we not take the lead and obey?"
Just as Talib's face fell, Yang Hao suddenly put down his wine glass, looked back and said, "Hey, but... no one is afraid of having too much money. I know that Mr. Talib's business is very big.
It’s not just Liulichang. Taxes in some areas are negotiable, and even...I can be exempted from tax."
Talib was in high spirits, and Cui Dalang's eyes were shining brightly. The merchants were chasing profits. How could they not be tempted when they heard that some goods were tax-free?
Talib quickly asked: "Sir, please tell me which products are tax-free."
Yang Hao turned to face him, glanced at Cui Dalang who looked expectant, and said, "Human."
Talib was stunned and asked: "Human?"
Yang Hao smiled and said: "That's right, man. Look, my northwest is vast and sparsely populated. Nowadays, industry, commerce, agriculture and animal husbandry are beginning to flourish, and the most lacking thing is manpower. Every time I see Talib selling goods,
Instead of having black slaves come and go frequently, how about... how about you sell some black slaves over?"
Talib was greatly moved when he heard this. The large-scale black slave trade began in the fifteenth century. Although there was also a black slave trade at that time, the New World had not yet been opened up. The great principalities in Europe did not have much land and they did not need it.
There are so many slaves, so it has not yet formed a trend. If Yang Hao needs a large number of manpower here, as long as it is profitable, this business can naturally be done.
Talib thought about it and felt that it was a good deal. His business was very complicated. Although he was the only one here, he had a large family in his hometown, running various businesses and constantly developing
Following the trade route, expanding the family's power, and selling slaves was a very profitable business. In addition, if Yang Hao did not collect taxes, it would be an even better way to make money.
Talib pondered for a long time while stroking his beard, nodding and saying to himself: "Hmm... I think it is feasible, it is feasible... Ah! Since what you want is just manpower, then it should not be limited to black slaves, right? White slaves
...is that okay too?”
Yang Hao was startled and said in surprise: "White slave?"
Talib said: "Yes, our country often has wars with the Persian Empire and the Qin (Roman) Empire."
He chuckled: "After five hundred years of war, Persia and Great Qin's national power is declining. In their wars with us, they often lose, and we capture a large number of prisoners. Those nobles will be redeemed by their families with huge sums of money."
Go, but the fate of ordinary soldiers is much more miserable. Instead of killing them and using them as fertilizer to enrich the soil, I think your lord... will be interested in them."
Yang Hao was a little amused when he heard this: "Are you going to get some blond and blue-eyed white people to be slaves?"
Then I thought about it, but my heart skipped a beat: Those prisoners of war were from all walks of life, and they had all kinds of talents. The art of papermaking was that after the Tang Dynasty and the black-clothed eaters failed in the Battle of Talas, the cannibals captured the prisoners of war of the Tang Dynasty.
brought back to Samarkand, and among these prisoners of war there were craftsmen who were good at papermaking, which spread papermaking throughout the West. Similarly, there are also skilled craftsmen and talents in various fields among these Westerners. Their arrival is not just
It has brought a labor force, and will also bring a large amount of Western culture and scientific and technological knowledge, which will be thoroughly integrated into our culture and will be a useful supplement to our development, especially the integration of ideas..."
Yang Hao only thought for a moment, then nodded happily and said: "Okay, no matter whether you are a black slave or a white slave, I want it, and it is completely tax-free."
Talib was overjoyed and quickly bowed and said: "Thank you for your generosity, sir. I will send someone back as soon as possible to inform my family and bring as many healthy, strong, hard-working slaves as you need."
The loss mentioned in the topic is not mentioned in the topic. With this way of making money, the high taxes imposed by Talib on glass production are not so fussy.
When leaving Liulichang, Cui Dalang also followed him and rode back to the city with him.
As soon as they got on the horse, the dog said: "Uncle, why do we spend money to buy some blond and blue-eyed ghosts? They look so scary."
Yang Hao laughed and said: "What's so scary? I think it's pretty good-looking."
Cui Dalang couldn't help but said: "Now that the generals have strong soldiers and horses, they can open up the Western Region trade routes to the west at any time. That is a huge source of wealth. What are the slave trade and glass production compared to them? Tea, silk, porcelain from the Central Plains,
Mirrors..., Western medicinal materials, spices, iron and steel, BMWs..., but it is not possible now. Every time we pass through a place, there is a powerful force who claims to be king based on the place. They have to pay extremely high taxes, and there are many people along the way.
We need to prepare a strong escort team, and nearly 60% of the profits from a batch of goods are consumed in this way. Otherwise, what would be the difficulty if you want to build this place into the Western Region and Jiangnan?"
This place was not far from the city. Yang Hao walked slowly and said with a smile: "Dalang's words are wrong. In fact, I have long wanted to march into the Western Regions and completely take over the Hexi Corridor and Guasha Ganliang Prefectures. This
Preparations for force have been made, but it is easy to occupy it, but very difficult to completely make it your own. If you don't make it your own, how can you guarantee the financial resources you mentioned?
If you want to completely make it your own, then after conquering it by force, you must garrison and control it, and immigrate to the border. The two complement each other, and then you can truly conquer it. Otherwise, the trade routes in the Western Regions cannot be smooth for a long time. However, garrison control and immigration
, It is difficult to immigrate. My place was originally sparsely populated and had few strong laborers. Now the four industries of industry, commerce, agriculture and animal husbandry have developed together. Now it seems to be prosperous, and all industries are prosperous. But if it continues to develop, then
There is a shortage of people everywhere, which seriously restricts further development. Where can there be idle people to move to the border areas? Moreover, it is difficult to leave the homeland. Who is willing to immigrate if they have no choice but to do so?"
Yang Haodao: "There are millions of Han people in the Western Regions, but they are scattered and scattered for hundreds of miles. Only by bringing in more people can we increase the vitality here. These people from distant foreign countries will learn our Chinese language and wear our Han clothes from now on."
, if I speak Chinese, a hundred years from now, I will be an out-and-out Han Chinese, whether it is for the present or the future, isn’t this a big long-term profit?”
Cui Dalang admires Ran Ruowu...
After arriving in Xiazhou City, Cui Dalang said goodbye and returned to his residence. Yang Hao went straight back to Jieshuai Mansion, handed the horse to the dog, and walked to the backyard alone. As soon as he walked through the moon gate, he saw Mu Yike carrying a food box.
Walking towards the West Cross Courtyard, he hurriedly called her and said in surprise: "Yue'er, who are you delivering food to? There is a guest in the house?"
Mu Yike turned around and saw that his master was back, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "I have seen you before, but there are no visitors in the house. I am delivering food to the layman Lianjue."
Lay Jue Lianjue is Zhou Nuying's Buddhist name. Now Yang Hao's fourth wife and concubines naturally know about her relationship with Yang Hao, but the servants in the mansion also keep it a secret. She has a residence in the west courtyard for her practice. Although she usually
He and Dong'er are often together, but they "sleep alone" there at night.
Upon hearing this, Yang Hao hurriedly asked: "Is Master Lianjue feeling unwell? Why don't you have dinner with your aunt?"
Mu Yike said: "Laity Lianjue is in seclusion, so we need slaves to deliver food to the layman's practice place."
Yang Hao choked and waved her hand to let her go. Mu Yike looked at him curiously, picked up the food box and left.
Yang Hao stood there and made a joke: "Are you going into seclusion again? Female heroes are really... really capable of giving birth..."
Nvying had given birth to a daughter for him last year, and she was practicing in seclusion at that time. She originally wanted to pretend that the child was born to Dong'er when she was born, but Dong'er happened to be pregnant at that time, so she asked the baby to pretend to be pregnant.
After Ying gave birth, she announced to the outside world that she was born to Wu Wa'er. Nvying liked children, Dong'er was busy with work, and Xueer was raised by her. Although this biological daughter was pretended to be someone else's biological mother, she was still the biological mother.
With this. Unexpectedly, Dong'er was about to give birth, and Nvying was pregnant again, as if she was competing with her.
Having more children is naturally a good thing, but Wawa and Miaomiao's stomachs are still as flat as before. Now that Nvying is pregnant, she is afraid that the two little goblins will cling to her again.
Since Nvying is pregnant, Yang Hao naturally can't turn a blind eye. Women are inherently sensitive animals, not to mention this time. If he neglects her a little, he may make her think that he has neglected her. Yang Hao thought about it briefly and turned to the west.
.
After bypassing a clump of rockery trees and just about to step onto the corridor, a little girl with her hair combed in a double-crotch hair, wearing a small floral jacket, and pink makeup suddenly ran towards him: "Daddy is back, daddy hugs her."
Yang Hao looked up and couldn't help but feel happy. This little girl was his beloved daughter Xue'er.
"Come, daddy, give me a hug."
As soon as Yang Hao squatted down, a little snow-white wolf jumped in front of him.
"Go away, big stupid dog, go away. Don't snatch my daddy!"
The little white wolf hugged its head and jumped up to hide far away, then whined twice and glanced at its little master with a pair of resentful wolf eyes.
Xueer ignored it at all, changed into a sweet smile, and opened her little hands to her father.
Yang Hao leaned over and picked up his daughter. During this hug, he suddenly realized that her pants were wet. He couldn't help but said with a shy face: "Little girl, you are so old and you wet your pants. Are you ashamed?"
Xueer said confidently: "This is not my urine, it is my sister's urine. I coaxed her to play, and she peed on me."
Yang Hao picked up Xue'er and walked forward. The little white wolf jumped over again, pressed against his legs, dragging a straight pouty tail, and followed him step by step. Yang Hao smiled and said: "Really?
My sister is so naughty, okay, daddy will spank her little butt and teach her a lesson."
When Xueer heard this, she giggled and said happily: "I knew dad would say that. I've already beaten him for dad, hahaha..."
Yang Hao didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. He glared at her and said, "You little girl, I don't want to learn from your mother's gentleness and kindness, but you will learn from your mother's cunning and cleverness. Didn't I say that you are not allowed to play with the little wolf alone?"
Why don't you have anyone with you? Do you want to be beaten?"
Xueer said proudly: "I don't have anyone to play with. I have my aunt to accompany me."
Yang Hao asked casually: "Are they your second aunt or third aunt? Why are they so free today?"
Xue'er shook her head like a rattle and said in a sweet voice: "Not the second aunt, nor the third aunt."
Yang Hao smiled and said: "Little girl, did you lie and reveal your secret? Hehe, your fourth aunt is outside the city now. Come, let dad prick your little face with his beard as punishment."
Xue'er pushed his chin with her little hand and giggled: "I'm not lying. This is an aunt Xue'er just met. Here, daddy, look..."
Xue'er pointed to the pavilion on the water with her hand. Yang Hao looked up and saw the person in the pavilion and couldn't help but stop.
In the red pavilion with clear water, green vines hang down, and the soft branches dance gently in the wind. Stopping under the vines, there stands a girl, wearing a black dress, with a green belt tied around her waist, and a mouth hanging from her waist.
He was wearing a short sword and a pair of buckskin boots on his feet. He had a heroic appearance, like a fairy, and his eyes were focused on him like autumn water.
Yang Hao was stunned for a moment. Zhe Yuxun often came to Xiazhou, but Zhe Ziyu had not seen her face for a long time. Unexpectedly, he would meet her today. She has grown into a real big girl. In the past,
The face that was still somewhat childish is now elegant, charming, and incomparably beautiful.
When the little white wolf saw his master stopped, he circled around him diligently, sniffing him with his wolf nose from time to time. Yang Hao just stared at the handsome Zhe Ziyu standing in the pavilion for a long time.
