Wu Ya'er said that the wheat in Xiangzhou is about to ripen.
There was a pressed wheat ear in the letter. Li Minglou picked it up and looked at the sunlight outside the window.
"The wheat has grown so big." She asked Yuanji curiously, "Has the wheat here also grown like this?"
The people's livelihood of the entire Huainan Road is under her control, but this does not mean that the young lady has to work hard to share the grain.
Li Minglou's carriage was traveling outside, and she never went to the farmland, nor did she work with the people. She just looked at the flowers, enjoyed the scenery, and had fun, but no one accused her of not being aware of the hardships and not setting an example.
Everyone knows that work is their business, as long as Mrs. Chu can allow them to work in such a stable manner.
Although Yuanji didn't work hard, he had seen wheat before. He nodded with a smile: "Our wheat has been harvested, and it has grown better than this."
Li Minglou didn't understand this and said: "It's remote over there and it's constantly fighting. It's great to grow up like this."
Xiangzhou is so remote, Yuan Ji thought, but the lady said it should be as far as it can go. He nodded and said yes. He saw Li Minglou put down the dried wheat ears and picked up a piece of horsetail grass from the letter paper... I made it up.
puppy.
The dry horsetail is no longer fluffy, and the puppy looks shriveled and ugly.
Li Minglou waved it in front of his eyes and smiled: "I picked grass from the wheat field. There is still grass in the wheat field."
There are grasses everywhere! What's so strange about this! Yuanji thought, are you free? Of course I am talking about Wu Ya'er. If you are free, you can pick wheat and pull weeds. Don't you have to fight? Are you retiring in Xiangzhou?
"Miss." Yuanji tilted his head to avoid the horsetail grass blocking his eyes, and asked, "What else did Governor Wu say?"
In addition to passing through the farmland, when the wheat is ripe, the horsetail grass can make puppies.
Whether the wheat in Xiangzhou is ripe or not, whether the grass can be used to make puppies, what does it have to do with them? What does it have to do with the current situation?
Li Minglou groaned, holding a horsetail grass to his ear, and lowered his head to read the letter: "The weather in Xiangzhou is very good during this period. There are many more people in Xiangzhou, and many people take the initiative to join the army. Although these people cannot serve as the main force.
But it can also increase the number of troops a lot."
This is finally a serious matter. Yuanji nodded: "Raising troops is necessary. After Ankangshan ascends the throne, the battle will only become more intense."
Li Minglou nodded and held the horsetail grass with one hand, and gently slid his hand along the words on the letter: "They want to regain the north of Xiangzhou and connect it with Mobei, Pingping and Lu Fanyang, so that the entire Northeast is like a hard bow.
."
She smiled slightly and drew a bow on the paper.
"The heavier the bow, the more powerful the arrow will be."
Yuanji thought: "So for the time being, they will not fight against the rebels in the capital, but the court can't wait any longer."
The enthronement of Ankang Mountain further stimulated the monarchs and ministers of Linzhou. There were battles all around, but Wu Yaer, who held a large army, was sitting in Xiangzhou, stationing troops and farming...
The monarchs and ministers of Linzhou are dying of anxiety. The most serious thing is not dying of anxiety, but dying of hatred.
Li Minglou slid his fingers back and forth on the letter and said casually: "We can't just die and waste our troops just because they can't wait. They are not the ones fighting at the front. Now let us attack the capital, shall we?"
Yuanji shook his head decisively: "Of course not."
Although it seems that the capital is besieged from all sides, the rebels in Ankang Mountain are not dregs. To be precise, it is not that Ankang San was besieged. It is because Ankang Mountain did not attack the surrounding areas. If he ordered an attack, the surrounding roads would appear to be stable.
How much will it fall apart?
Huainan Road does not dare to act as a lone hero.
"Sooner or later, we have to fight. It can't be too early." Li Ming said, then paused, "But it can't be too late."
Of course they had to participate in the battle of the capital. Yuan Ji became interested and stood up to bring the map: "As long as Xuanwu Road is consolidated and stabilized, and Zhongli can lead Henan Road to help without fail, then someone will attack us from both sides..."
Li Minglou pointed at the map and smiled: "We have this, Wu Ya'er."
He is indeed the most evenly matched with Ankang Mountain. Yuanji nodded. He is also the most suitable, but he is not the most trustworthy.
"Who claims to attack the east and who attacks the west, and who surrounds Wei and rescues Zhao, this must be clearly distinguished." He said, "The battle of Anton must not happen again."
Li Minglou looked at Yuanji: "Should I discuss it with him?"
This is a great achievement that is enough to make a marquis and become a prime minister. For this great achievement, Wu Ya'er concentrated on accumulating all his strength to hit the target with one blow. Even the emperor didn't pay attention to it. Can we discuss it? Yuan Ji looked at Li Minglou's round and bright eyes and said
: "Okay, if he refuses, his mother is in our hands, and Xiaoer and the others are with him. If he beats him down, we will go and rob him."
Li Minglou said: "There is no need to rob him. In the future, everything he has will be ours."
Wu Ya'er is about to die. When he dies, everything about him will belong to her.
"I'll write him a letter." She said, letting go of the pen and looking at Wu Ya'er's letter again, "Look, his handwriting is really good."
How good can it be? Yuanji glanced at it. He didn't care whether Wu Yaer's handwriting was good or not. What he cared about was that the young lady's voice was very confident when she said this, but there was a bit of sadness in her eyes.
Did you grab it reluctantly?
"Old Ming, you are right." Yuan Ji walked outside the courtyard gate and saw Jiang Ming talking to Fang Er. He said solemnly, "Wu Ya'er writes more and more letters to the lady. The lady is really good at it.
Sympathize with him."
"He wrote a letter again?" Jiang Ming asked, frowning, "Does he want troops?"
"I didn't ask for it this time," Yuanji said, "but I think I will ask for it next time."
Jiang Ming touched his chin, what should he do?
Fang Erdao: "I believe Miss, no matter how much Wu Ya'er wins Miss' pity, Miss will not give him soldiers and horses at will."
Yuan Ji and Jiang Ming hesitated and said, "We actually believe in Miss, but..."
Fang Er asked: "What did the lady say in reply to Wu Ya'er?"
Yuan Ji said: "Discuss with him about attacking the capital and asking him to assist."
Fang Er said calmly: "Look, isn't this young lady asking for soldiers and horses from Wu Ya'er?"
Jiang Ming suddenly touched his palms and said, "Yes, Miss asked him for it first. If he doesn't give it, how can he open his mouth to Miss again?"
Yuanji nodded, it was true, and since he refused to give it, the lady could see his character more clearly.
"And it's right for the lady to write more letters to him." He drew inferences and realized, "He writes more letters because she pities him, and the lady writes more to him, making him pity her more."
Jiang Ming nodded together, enlightened, it makes sense!
If he pities the lady, he will not ask for soldiers and horses. If he does not pity the lady, he will never ask for soldiers and horses from the lady.
While the three of them were talking, two children ran out, looking around as if they were looking for something.
"What do you want, Miss?" Yuanji asked.
The two children stretched out their hands and gestured "I want flowers", "I want leaves" and "Press them into dry ones".
Jiang Ming and Fang Er were puzzled, but Yuan Ji understood and told them about the dried wheat ears and dried dogtail grass sent by Wu Yaer.
Fang Er nodded: "Treat others in their own way, Miss is wise."
Who doesn’t know how to send dried flowers?
Yes, Yuanji and Jiang Ming nodded.
Yuanji asked two children to find it, and then ordered: "After the lady has finished writing the letter, send it to me immediately."
He will send the messengers faster than before so that Wu Ya'er can see the dried flowers and leaves of their Huainan Road as soon as possible.
...
...
When receiving a letter from a husband who is fighting abroad, the wives at home will be happy and excited, and they can't wait to tell the people around them, making everyone laugh and cry together.
Li Mingqi rode a car from the eldest lady's villa to tell the old man of the Xiang family the news, and read her belief to the old man Xiang, to Xiang Nan's father, to Xiang Nan's mother, to the sisters...
The Xiang family mansion became lively and bustling, with women crying, laughing and laughing from time to time...
In contrast, the small courtyard where Xiang Nan originally lived was even more deserted.
"Miss, that Xiang Nan didn't even write to the lady. She obviously wrote to him." The maid stood by the door and sneered, "Does he think of our Qi family in his eyes?"
Qi Acheng sat at the table without raising his head: "As long as the Governor Xiang is there, he is not yet the Governor. It doesn't matter whether he is there or not."
The maid turned around and said, "Miss, you are very perceptive."
Qi Acheng raised her head, her frown showing that she didn't see clearly.
"Dad has made such great achievements, why didn't he go to Linzhou?" She asked, "Is it because Governor Xiang failed to report the merits to my father as agreed?"
She was not asking the maid at the door, but the attendant in blue shirt standing in front of the table.
"Miss, you are too worried." The attendant said, holding out a letter with both hands, "This is a letter from the Grand Governor to the lady."
