Diyang, as a city on the banks of the Ying River, actually had a good foundation. It was just that after experiencing the destruction of several countries, it lost the maintenance of national power and had to face competition from the northern and southern countries, so it naturally declined.
.
At this time, there was only one single person named Dong left among the households in Diyang.
After Cai Guo's troops quickly occupied Diyang, they immediately subdued the Dong tribes and scattered the scouts on both sides of the Ying River, mainly relying on Dong or Dong's children.
In just one night, the Dong family's children discovered a problem. The traces of Xincai's "Xuanjia Brigade" suddenly disappeared.
It's like, suddenly disappearing.
At first, the Dong family members thought that this might be the "Xuanjia Brigade" fighting. Later, they discovered that there seemed to be traces of large force activities at the Jindu Pass near Huaikou, and they immediately overturned this guess.
After that, troops with strange flags were discovered "wandering" one after another. Although there was no contact, it could be felt that this troop was obviously not Chudi's style.
"Gentlemen, it is rumored that Li Jie, the son of Jiangyin in the state of Wu, rebelled against the state of Cai. Could it be that... the people he met during the day were the righteous soldiers who forced Yang to attack?"
"Do you want to inform Mr. Cai?"
"Cai Guo's army came to Yingyin and invaded Diyang. At that time, the Chu people were still around, so they could still deal with it. Now Cai is not as good as Chu, and it is even more difficult, so why should he serve the Cai people?"
"exactly!"
"The people of Cai are very ambitious. Li Jie, the son of Jiangyin of Wu State, is a guest soldier, so he will not stay in Jianghuai for long. Now Cai is a wolf and Li Jie is a tiger. It is better to lure the tiger to come and kill the wolves."
"From what you have seen, the 'Xuanjia Brigade'..."
"The righteous man is still alive, but Xuan Jia is gone."
"good."
Soon, the people of the Dong family in Diyang pretended not to know and just pretended that they had not seen any traces of the "Xuanjia Brigade". Although the scouts of Cai Guo who were traveling with them also saw the righteous people, the people of the Dong family used "maybe for that".
Huaiyi" was fooled by this reason.
After all, the costumes of those martyrs are really weird and weird. The nobles of Cai State may recognize them, but the middle and lower classes in Cai State's army are those who have never been abroad, so it is naturally impossible to recognize them.
It was night, and there was still no news from the "Xuanjia Brigade" back to Diyang. The Cai Guo garrison in Diyang felt that something might be wrong, but in the middle of the night, even if they noticed something was wrong, they couldn't go out to look for it.
If anything happens, we can only wait until dawn.
On this moonlit night with few stars, a large number of ships were floating on the water of Yingshui River and Huaihe River. In addition to a large amount of supplies, there were also some prisoners of Cai who were not seasick.
Among them was Cai Ying, the brigade commander of the "Xuanjia Brigade". What surprised Cai Ying was that none of the Wu people operating the boat in the middle of the night had "quemeng".
Several people in his "Xuanjia Brigade" are completely useless at night and cannot see anything. They must have light to restore their eyesight a little.
Cai Ying was shocked by this discovery. He had heard of Li Jie and naturally knew Li Jie's behavior.
The result of the Battle of Biyang was that Li Jie transported a large number of prisoners southward along the Hangou. What happened to them? Cai Ying felt that these unlucky ones might have to be fed to the fishes.
Wu people are so barbaric.
"well……"
A sigh, drifting on the boat on a sultry summer night, made Cai Ying very sad.
"well……"
The same sigh came from Huaizhong City.
"Why do plums sigh?"
"I treat Zhen with sincerity, but Zhen doesn't treat me with sincerity. The so-called friendship between gentlemen is to treat each other honestly..."
In the dark pool, County Magistrate Li had just taken off his clothes and soaked in the water.
Damn it, this summer is so uncomfortable. It’s still so hot at night. County Magistrate Li thought, it’s at least thirty-nine and a half degrees.
It was too hot to bear, so I ran to take a shower again.
There is a pool in the house which is very convenient, plus there is iced sour plum soup and some mugwort is burned around it, so you are not afraid of mosquito bites.
During the day, I was bragging with my sister-in-law, and relying on a little bit of knowledge accumulated from the nine-year compulsory education, I finally fooled the green snake into taking a cold bath in the pool.
However, "Xiao Qing" said that he must be polite, so County Magistrate Li did not take a peek. He climbed to the roof and watched openly and openly from a high position.
Anyway, "Xiao Qing" doesn't have the habit of looking up at the sky.
After reading it, County Magistrate Li made up his mind that he must go to get rid of the fire tonight.
I have to pick up my long-lost hobbies.
"What kind of sincerity is Li Zi's sincerity?"
It was also hot at night, and my sister-in-law also wanted to save face. Although face was very strange, she was determined not to give up the ice cubes, but gave them to her sister "Bai Suzhen".
Then it was too hot. When I heard that my "brother-in-law" was going to take a shower to cool off, enjoy the night view, and recite two witty lines to cultivate my mood, my heart suddenly trembled, and I followed.
After the incense candles were gone, "Xiao Qing" went into the water wearing gauze and sat on the stone steps. Under the moonlight, a wooden basin floated on the water, and there was sour plum soup in the basin.
Take a sip from time to time, it tastes really good.
The gauze made of thin silk will appear to be of poor quality once it is wetted. It will make people feel that the gauze is broken and torn. In short, it will look like it is of poor quality.
If County Magistrate Li hadn't insisted on making high-quality products, he would have thought that the gauze clothes he produced were fake.
However, there is only moonlight at night, which still makes people's eyesight somewhat bad. It is probably because they ate a few more peaches during the day. Magistrate Li used the moonlight to feel that "Xiao Qing" had a lot of peaches on him.
There are big peaches, and there are even bigger peaches...
"The so-called peach...no, the so-called sincerity is like a person coming into the world naked; just like a person dying, leaving naked. Coming and going naked is the way to be sincere!"
Wow!
After saying that, Lao Li held the wine glass filled with sour plum soup and stood up from the water, "This is Li's way of sincerity!"
Although she couldn't see Li Jie's expression clearly, Gui Zhen could feel the firmness and sincerity of her "brother-in-law". After thinking about it, she nodded slightly: "What Li Zi said does make sense."
With that said, Gui Zhen gently placed the cup in her hand into the floating wooden basin beside her, then stood up, slowly untied her belt, and placed her wet gauze clothes slightly overlapping on the steps.
superior.
"A gentleman is magnanimous, but a villain hides his chickens... He is always happy. Zhen is indeed a hero among women, a female gentleman, and a true gentleman!"
Lao Li's pair of krypton gold dog eyes were about to burst with electricity even if only the moonlight reflected them. He hurriedly stepped on the water splash and slipped to sit next to Gui Zhen, and then said loudly, "Here, Li will give Chen Jun a drink!"
After taking a sip, Lao Li suddenly laughed: "Sour plums are stingy, not as good as drinking!"
"Come here, bring me 'Baisa Amber'! I want two altars!"
"Yes, General."
After hearing this, the two little maids on the shore responded quickly and walked to the corridor where there was a light, and then they ran to the warehouse to get wine.
"'Baisa Amber'?"
Guizhen, who looked curious, sat there and asked calmly.
"That is Li's treasure. We will not entertain guests other than distinguished guests. How can a sincere gentleman use such vulgar things?"
As he said that, Lao Li touched Guizhen's hand, took the cup of sour plum soup she had just picked up, and drank it all in one gulp: "This situation, this person, this person, if there is no good wine, wouldn't it be right?"
pity?"
Not long after, two little maidservants came over panting and holding wine jars.
The sugar residue wine actually tasted pretty good. County Magistrate Li opened two jars of wine, drank one jar himself, and gave the other jar to Guizhen, and then said: "Li pays tribute to Mr. Chen."
"please."
Gui Zhen poured a glass of wine slowly, and then drank with Li Jie.
After taking a sip of the sugar dregs wine, Gui Zhen was surprised. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she turned to look at Li Jie with great joy: "Plum is indeed sincere. This 'Baisa Amber' is truly a fine wine."
"In our great kingdom of Wu, only the king can obtain this fine wine from Li!"
While County Magistrate Li was speaking, he moved his butt under the water again, getting much closer to "Xiao Qing".
After drinking a few drinks, County Magistrate Li put his hand on Gui Zhen's shoulder and laughed: "It's so nice to have a drinking buddy like Chen Jun. I'm really lucky in my life."
Guizhen didn't say anything, she just burped, then the silver bell rang, and she smiled happily.
"..."
This girl's laughter was always weird, and Li Jie found that she was always touched by something inadvertently.
But it doesn’t matter, the girl’s personality is not the key, her looks and figure are.
The extremely vulgar County Magistrate Li lay back with his head on a step, looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, he also burped from wine, and then said something out of nowhere: "A bright moon rises on the sea... This is where the world ends."
hour!"
There is wine, beautiful scenery, a mansion, a mansion with a swimming pool, and a swimming pool with beauties...
Isn't this the fucking dream you had when you were a foreman?
It's so easy to implement.
"Together at this time?"
The slightly drunk Gui Zhen came close to Li Jie's cheek, exhaling the fragrant and sour smell of alcohol. With a pair of big eyes that seemed to be always full of curiosity, she stared at Li Jie's eyes looking at the moon. She stared blankly for a while before saying:
: "Who is sharing this time?"
"Who knows, maybe it's a dog from Jiangdong, looking at the bright moon with Li."
She curled her lips and blurted out vulgar words, but Guizhen didn't say anything rude or disrespectful. Instead, she smiled like a silver bell. Her laughter was very sweet and pleasant, very different.
"You girl, your sense of humor... is really low."
"?????"
Guizhen, who tilted her head to one side, had a confused look on her face, but she was leaning sideways at the moment, so she naturally rubbed against Li Jie's ribs and chest, as if it was a little electric, tickling people's hearts, making them feel comfortable and irritable at the same time.
After a while, I saw this ignorant green snake spirit actually kicking the water by himself with great interest, and then he was amused by himself.
Seeing her like this, Li Jie felt much better and drank two sips: "Ha..."
"Li Zi is really cunning. He secretly drank the fine wine."
After saying that, Gui Zhen stretched out a pointed finger and tapped Li Jie's nose like a scolding.
Ding!
Li Jie threw the bronze lord in his hand and picked up the green snake essence from the water without caring about the many.
"ah!"
"Shh... keep your voice down, don't wake your sister up."
"Hehe, Li Zi is indeed a sincere gentleman."
"Not only am I sincere, I am also profound!"
Holding Gui Zhen in his arms, Li Jie ran all the way to the door of the big house and kicked open the door. After entering, he pulled up a handful of tents and wiped the water off Gui Zhen's body carelessly. When he got to the couch, he gently lifted the
Under the dim light, those big, always curious eyes were looking at Li Jie with even more curiosity.
She watched Li Jie hurriedly drying himself off, and after a while of busy work, he also lay on the couch, looking at herself with the same curious eyes.
"What is Li Zi looking at?"
"There is a saying: A gentleman is like jade."
Then County Magistrate Li stretched out his hand and stroked it slowly, once, twice, three times...
