Undercooked ducks will fly away, and overcooked ducks will be taken away as long as they are not eaten.
Even if you eat it but don't finish it, it can still be taken away by others.
Just like two children fighting over each other, even if they take a bite in their mouths, they won't object. In fact, there is no difference between adults and children in fighting over each other.
The attendants listened helplessly: "Captain, are you still in the mood to joke?"
While we are talking about children and adults, why not think about what His Majesty thinks and what is going on with Prime Minister Cui?
Xiang Yun said: "Don't think about it. With more choices, I am worthless. There is no need to summon me to the capital with an imperial edict."
The attendants looked bitter and angry: "How can Zhang An and Wang Lin, two Jiedu envoys bought with money, compare with the governor! How can Prime Minister Cui like them? How does Jiang You do things?"
Of course Prime Minister Cui was not attracted to them, but to Han Xu behind them.
Xiang Yun knew very well in his heart, but there was no need to say this sentence. It would be better to compare his own people with him, which would arouse everyone's anger and injustice. Anger and injustice are also a kind of cohesion.
"Mr. Jiang has done a good job." Xiang Yundao said, looking at the letter on the table, "If he hadn't wandered around in many directions, His Majesty would have just asked Zhang An and Wang Lin to stay, and there wouldn't have been many officials.
My name was mentioned, otherwise there would be no imperial edict, not even the oral message without me."
The follower sighed angrily: "The governor is too generous. He doesn't fight for anything and will only be bullied."
Xiang Yun said: "Stop fighting for leisure."
When the personal attendant was about to say something, a soldier from outside came running in: "The governor, Ji Wei and Yuan Wei, two generals, are here with their troops."
The personal attendant was overjoyed: "Prefect Hu really convinced them."
Magistrate Hu has not returned yet, so Xiang Yun, who takes the place of Magistrate Hu, wants to entertain them and discuss how to arrange the defense, so that the overall situation is in his hands.
It was considered good news. Xiang Yun looked slightly relieved. He stood up and walked out. There was already a lot of noise in the yard.
"Prefect Hu hasn't come back yet?"
"Miss Minghua hasn't come back either?"
"Where are you now? Why so slow?"
"Is General Yue Wei delayed?"
Two tall generals rushed in surrounded by their own soldiers, asking loudly and looking this way.
Xiang Yun raised his hand and saluted them: "Thank you for your hard work, two generals. Magistrate Hu and Miss Minghua just left Tanwei a few days ago and are probably on their way."
The two generals looked at him, a little strange, some guessing, and a little hesitant.
"This is the Governor of Longyou, Commander-in-Chief Xiang Yun." The people next to him introduced him hurriedly.
The two generals then saluted with a hint of surprise: "It turns out to be Governor Xiang." "I have admired you for a long time." "I think Governor Xiang is here to assist Miss Minghua."
Xiang Yun stretched out his inviting hand and paused slightly.
The personal attendant here has already corrected him: "Captain Xiang is from Longyou Road, and he came here specially this time..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the two generals.
"We know that Governor Xiang is from Longyou Road."
"Isn't Longyou Road the same as Jiannan Road? We are one family."
The two laughed and looked familiar.
Xiang Yun did not correct or answer the question. He stopped himself from explaining and extended his hand to invite: "The two generals have worked hard all the way. Come in and talk."
The two generals raised their hands and saluted: "No, since Miss Minghua hasn't come back yet, let's go to Pengcheng Camp first." "Miss Minghua said that soldiers and horses from Jiannan Road are stationed at Pengcheng Camp. Let's go and see what's there.
To help.”
The attendant frowned and was about to speak, but Xiang Yun stopped him again.
"How about I first tell you about the situation in Jiangling Mansion and discuss how to arrange the troops and horses?" he said kindly.
The two generals laughed and shook their heads: "No need." "Miss Minghua has already told us." "We will discuss it together when Miss Minghua comes back." "Let's go to Pengcheng Camp to get familiar with it first."
The follower said: "Why wait, in case the opportunity to fight is delayed..."
Xiang Yun stopped him again and nodded to the two generals with a smile: "That's fine." He called the generals of Jiangling Mansion and "accompany the two generals to the camp."
The generals of Jiangling Prefecture responded, and the two generals stopped being polite and said goodbye to Xiang Yun.
"Thank you for your hard work, Governor Xiang."
"When Miss Minghua comes back, we will have a drink together."
The noise came in and out, and the officials and servants in the government followed suit and went out to watch the excitement. The Jiangling Mansion Office became quiet again.
The attendant stood in the corridor anxiously: "Why did you let them go? What did they mean? Why didn't the governor keep them?"
Can't you see what it means to talk about Miss Minghua? These two people only listen to Miss Minghua. Even if they are left to discuss the arrangement of troops and horses, these two people will not listen to him.
Xiang Yun was also a little surprised. Li Minghua did go, but the leader should be Magistrate Hu. Minghua was a woman...
Why does it sound like the two generals are led by her?
Before I could finish thinking, there was another noise outside.
"Captain Xiang." A soldier ran in with joy on his face, "Prefect Hu and Miss Minghua are back."
.....
.....
Outside Jiangling Mansion, people were shouting, soldiers and horses were surging, and people were also surging. In the distance, dust and smoke were flying, and colorful flags were fluttering like thousands of galloping horses.
The follower was surprised: "There weren't so many soldiers and horses when we left, right?"
"I heard that she is Miss Minghua from Jiannan Road. Many people have taken refuge along the way and are willing to join the army to kill thieves." A well-informed person introduced.
They were watching at the city gate, and the generals of the two guards there had already led their troops to greet them.
"Ms. Minghua, you are really not slow to come back."
"This short period of time has been really hard."
They shouted loudly and waved to the approaching troops and horses. The troops spread out and the colorful flags were arranged, revealing one man and one horse.
Sitting on the black horse is a woman in a red dress. She is wrapped in a layer of light armor. Her face is covered with dust, her eyes are bright, her body is tall and strong, and she jumps in front of everyone.
Her body was smooth and graceful, and she raised her hands to return the salute to the two generals who greeted them: "It's these two generals who are so fast."
The two generals who were praised for their military excellence laughed.
Xiang Yun looked away, turned around and walked down the city gate.
I followed him hurriedly down and saw Xiang Yun not going outside to greet him, but walking towards the Yamen. He asked confusedly what he was going to do?
There is nothing to do, Xiang Yun thought, nothing to do.
I originally thought that since Magistrate Hu was here and Li Minghua was a woman, going out would just add to the excitement, but I didn't expect that she actually held up the scene, and Magistrate Hu became a foil instead.
Although it is absurd, there are too many absurdities in these troubled times. Although she is a woman, she can still create momentum by waving the surname Li and holding the Jiannan Dao flag.
The scene at the city gate should have belonged to him.
But now that Li Minghua has gained momentum, it will not be easy for him to seize it again. Li Minghua, who has already tasted and is familiar with the feeling of holding military power, will not be easily persuaded to give up.
In the face of power, women are sometimes more greedy than men, such as the lady from Chu State.
If he really wanted to fight with Li Minghua, he would have to break up with Jiannan Dao. It would do him no good to break up now.
This time I can only stop here.
Xiang Yun stopped and looked back. If it weren't for the assassin...
He looked away and sighed inwardly, bad luck.
"Captain, where are we going next?" he asked in a low voice.
Xiang Yun said: "Of course we are going to the capital. How can we disobey His Majesty's orders?"
Oral instructions are also instructions. Even if the road is not very good, it is still a road. It is not a bad idea to make a beautiful road out of a bad road.
The attendant responded: "I'll go get ready right now."
Xiang Yun called him again: "Before going to the capital, let's go to the Southeast Road to meet the Governor of Qi."
