After Ning Ping understood this, she suddenly pursed her lips and said:
"It turns out that Xiao Qi doesn't want to marry Jiang Zu."
Then she threw herself into Hyun's arms and cried loudly.
Hyun was confused. Is this something worth crying about? But it would be enough to make Ning Ping understand her feelings for Jiang Nu. She couldn't fully understand the child's mood.
He comforted Ning Ping and said:
"Don't worry, Xiao Qi. In the future, you will meet someone who is willing to marry Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi is also willing to marry, just like the emperor did to the queen. Didn't Xiao Qi also say that he would marry someone like his cousin in the future? Have you forgotten?"
Ning Ping suddenly stopped crying, raised her teary eyes and looked at Hyun:
"Will Xiao Qi meet someone like my cousin in the future?"
Hyun wiped her tears:
"Yes, but, Xiaoqi, you have to improve yourself through learning and make yourself better before you can meet the person you want."
Ning Ping wiped away her tears and said enthusiastically:
"Xiao Qi must study hard when we go back and become a person like my brother!"
Hyun leaned against a tree next to him and put her on his belly:
"Cheng'er is a monster, let's just be human beings."
Ning Ping laughed so much that she let Lai play coquettishly in Hyun's arms.
After getting off the car, Jiang Xi wanted to see Ning Yang, but when he saw Ning Qing carrying Ning Qing to the side of the road, he miraculously forgot about Ning Yang and kept paying attention to the two of them. He didn't know what they were talking about, and looked at Ning Qing. He would cry, laugh again, and act coquettishly for Hyun again, and suddenly he remembered the scene of Ning Ping nestled in his arms.
When he returned to the capital, he went to find Jiang Wu, and the first thing he said was:
"Take your son back."
Since she knows that Jiang Zu likes girls like Ning Yang, there is no need to follow Jiang Wu's wishes. She cannot raise a child like Ning Yang, and she doesn't like such a child to hide her true nature. I got up and just followed the dogma. Every time I saw Ning Yang, I had the urge to tear off her disguise and see what was inside.
Jiang Wu was stunned:
"What's going on? I saved Xiao Qi. Isn't it the right time for the two of them to develop their relationship?"
Hyun showed a serious attitude as if discussing business:
"They should be allowed to have a natural understanding process. If they are so forceful, can the two of them be happy? Are you and your wife happy?"
Jiang Wu was stunned, was he happy? Following the orders of his parents and the advice of a matchmaker, he would marry a strange woman who had been arranged and then give birth to children and live an ordinary life. , even if he has a concubine who can serve him well and praise him, so what? It's not just ordinary, she's just venting her physiological needs.
Our ancestors have been here for generations, and we have never thought that there is anything wrong with this. Is it happiness? What is happiness? Maybe it was like Ning Fang and Hyun before? At that time, they were really envious to the point of drooling, but even then, the two of them No, we still made peace.
Huan looked at Jiang Wu and thought deeply, and then said:
"We have always followed our parents' orders to marry wives and matchmakers, but Mr. Jiang, at least allow our children to choose their own wives or husbands. You also hope that Jiang Cu can have a lovely wife, right? Let him and Xiao Qi make their own choice. As the saying goes, forceful melons are not sweet. Marriage depends on their fate. If there is a fate in the future, maybe it will be as you wish."
Seeing that Jiang Wu was still thinking, she left first. Even if Jiang Wu didn't answer this time, she would send Jiang Cu back.
A few days later, Jiang Wu came to the Black Face Mansion to pick up Jiang Nu. When Jiang Nu knew that he was going home, he felt awkward. He looked at Mr. Zhuo, who had no intention of holding back, and went home with Jiang Wu and got into the carriage. Before turning around, he looked at the wordless plaque and the closed door.
In the carriage, Jiang Wu said solemnly:
"I'm afraid you won't see Xiao Qi again in the future."
Jiang Zu didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy, but he just remembered Ning Ping nestled in his arms.
Jiang Wu saw that Jiang Nu was very dull and sighed secretly.
During this year, Ning Fang and Huo Jiu led their troops to conquer many places with fertile water and grass. During this year, Xuan also discussed with Ru Yuan and Jiang Wu about going to Qin as an envoy.
A year later, everything was ready, and Fu Jian was contacted, a date was set, and the group set off.
Ning Fang no longer has to worry about Jiang Wu competing for his daughter. His baby Xiaoqi is still his, but seeing Jiang Wu working with Hyun makes him feel uncomfortable.
When bidding farewell, Ning Yu came close to Hyun:
"I'll go with you. There's no war now, so I have nothing to do for the time being."
Hyun looked at him sideways:
"King Yi, I have already said that a common man is not guilty of carrying a jade."
Ning Yan pointed to his clothes:
"I can dress up as a soldier, or as a coachman."
The clothes can be changed, but the temperament cannot be changed. Even if you can cover it up consciously, you will still be exposed if you forget it. Besides, what is he going to do? It is impossible for a prince to treat him casually and not to serve him. Open your mouth more. You still have to open your mouth, and you need food, drink, and shelter, and Kun Yuguo is not allowed to pay for it.
Hyun got angry when she saw him, talked to him lazily, turned around and walked towards the horse.
Ning Yan chased after her:
"Don't ignore me, say something to me, and I'll go with you."
Hyun suddenly stopped. Ning Yu thought she agreed, but unexpectedly Hyun turned around and said:
"King Yi, please come back. I'm about to mount my horse."
Ning Ming looked up and saw that Xuan had already walked in front of the horse and grabbed the saddle with one hand. Ning Ming smiled cheekily and said:
"I'll help Mr. Zhuo mount his horse."
Hyun seriously doubted whether Ning Feng had changed the core. He rolled his eyes and led his horse towards the crowd.
In front of so many people, Ning Yu could no longer be so shameless and looked at Hyun eagerly until they set off and disappeared from sight.
Everyone first went to Wuzhangyuan, where they met with a group of guards led by Shi Cen. Jiang Wu discussed defense with generals such as Yue Zhengyuan and Wang Bi, and then rushed to Chang'an.
This time they went to Chang'an again, and they were well entertained along the way, which showed them Fu Jian's attitude towards cooperation.
When they arrived in Chang'an, Hyun and Jiang Wu lamented that although Chang'an was not decadent under Shi Hu's rule, it was not as prosperous as it is now. Sure enough, whether the policies are good or not can be seen by looking at the state of the city.
When they arrived at the hotel, everyone made arrangements, and then the officials took Jiang Wu, Ru Yuan, Xuan and other key personnel to walk around Chang'an and eat Chang'an snacks. Xuan missed rice noodles and noodles so much that he ate a lot of cold noodles. , sour, spicy and delicious.
The next day, I met with Fu Jian. Hyun presented the cooperation plan to Fu Jian. Fu Jian looked at it carefully, but there was no weapon. He put down the plan and said:
"Your country's cooperation projects are very good, but where is the cooperation in weapons? I want to see that."
Hyun bowed and replied:
"Of course there is cooperation in weapons, but cooperation must be discussed one by one. Talking about it together would be too messy. Please don't rush it, Your Majesty."
Fu Jian looked at Yun, who was standing in front of him, neither humble nor arrogant. Although Fu Jian wanted to say that I wanted to see the weapons first, he squirmed and said nothing. He looked too anxious and it was not good for him in terms of price. So I listened patiently to the cooperation ahead.
Of course, these cooperations include canned food, which is the main export product of Kunyu Country. After years of experiments, it is now possible to make canned fish, shrimp and other semi-finished products.
At the beginning of the article, when introducing the geographical location of Kunyu Kingdom, I said that there was a river on the east and west sides of Kunyu Kingdom in the past. Now Qianyang has been conquered. Qianyang already has many water systems. In the past, the rivers were not polluted. Wherever there were rivers, there were rivers.
Fish, shrimp, crab and other aquatic products, therefore, Kunyu country is rich in aquatic products.
At the beginning, Fu Jian was not interested in these cooperations, but as he listened, he suddenly realized that these cooperations were more suitable for developing the country. His reluctance was swept away. He listened carefully to these cooperations, and his mind was spinning rapidly, looking at Qin Guoneng.
How much benefit has been obtained, and can these benefits be increased further?
Fu Jian originally thought it would be easy to talk about cooperation, but he didn't expect that they actually talked for several days, and the plan was revised again and again. Jiang Wu came to accompany him, mainly Ru Yuan and Hyun, and Fu Jian admired their professional attitude.
Endless.
After the negotiation was concluded, Hyun made the contracts as listed, most of which were for five years. Fu Jian found it troublesome:
"Now that we've reached an agreement, why do we need to set a five-year period?"
Hyun smiled and said:
"Your Majesty, none of us know what will happen in five years. The amount specified in the contract is within five years. I can assure you that there will be no problem. But after five years, if there are any changes in our country, who will come?"
Complete these?"
Fu Jian thought about it. No matter who changes, five years will be beneficial to everyone. He should put away his own contract:
"Then let's talk about weapons."
Hyun looked at Fu Jian's tired look. His brain had been spinning at high speed and working precisely for the past few days. Anyone would feel tired and wanted to have a good sleep. He saluted:
"Your Majesty, I suggest that we talk again after two or three days of rest. I believe that Your Majesty will also feel that talking about cooperation is an extremely wasteful job in the past few days. After a few days of rest, everyone will be well rested," he said to the ministers, "Let's
Let’s start the war of words again.”
Everyone laughed.
Fu Jian also felt that he really needed to rest, so he agreed to Xuan's suggestion and continued after three days.
Back at the inn, Jiang Wu and Ru Yuan were about to take a rest when Hyun grabbed the two of them:
"Let's talk about weapons."
Jiang Wu swallowed half of his yawn:
"Didn't you say rest?"
Hyun gave him a tug:
"That is a delaying tactic. Through product cooperation negotiations, we have to change the method of weapons negotiations."
The three of them discussed weapons negotiations again. They were busy for more than two days, then took a half-day break and continued on the fourth day.
After so many years, the ballistae has of course been developed again, with a longer range and a burst count of 20. However, in the cooperation plan for Qin, the ballistae still has the same range as before, with only seven bursts. Even so
, Fu Jian was very excited when he saw it.
There is no shoulder-mounted siege gun in the plan, because this weapon is not conspicuous in a large military formation, and the long-range weapons are all behind the military formation, making it difficult for the opponent to find it. Therefore, the surrounding countries do not know about it.
Yu State still has such a weapon, let alone the "biochemical weapons" made by Ning Cheng, both of which are still secrets.
Fu Jian didn't see the Flyers and said unhappily:
“Why aren’t there Flyers?”
Jiang Wu said:
"Your Majesty, the Flyers have many shortcomings. They are severely restricted by the terrain and have the advantage of fighting high and low. However, in combat, the situation is complicated and it is impossible to bring the Flyers and portable runways with them at all times. This is a waste of manpower and material resources.
"Furthermore, the training cycle of the Flyers is too long. If a player is lost, it will be difficult to replace him as soon as possible." Speaking of this, he said in a twist, "However, the Flyers' runway still has a certain deterrent effect. If His Majesty is willing, we can
Sell a few runways to His Majesty."
Fu Jian thought for a while, and it seemed that Kun Yuguo saw the Flyers for the first time in the border town battle with Zhao State, and indeed he never saw them again after that:
"When you attacked Longzhou and Qianyang, I heard that you also brought the Flying Team."
Jiang Wu bowed:
"To be honest with Your Majesty, we just brought the Flyers' runway."
Fu Jian blinked his eyes and laughed loudly:
"Okay, okay, we never tire of deceit! What a strategy!"
He looked at the weapon list carefully and asked again:
"There are no firecrackers here," turned to Hyun, "I heard that Mr. Zhuo is very good at using firecrackers."
Hyun stepped forward and saluted:
"Your Majesty, the firecrackers are ordinary firecrackers tied into bundles and thrown out. They are only used as a deterrent and are not specially made."
Fu Jian didn't believe it, so he had some firecrackers brought in. Fu was very skillful in rolling them up, and then tied them into bundles, but not too big, otherwise the shoulder-mounted siege cannon would be exposed, and he could use them without anyone noticing.
A cloth bag filled with saltpeter was stuffed in the middle. This cloth bag was thanks to Jiang Wu's reminder. Otherwise, I really don't know how to deal with Fu Jian now.
He took it to the yard and shouted to Fu Jian:
"Your Majesty, I want to make a fire."
Fu Jian agreed, and he lit several bundles at the same time. A lot of ash fell on the house that was shaken by the explosion. The Imperial Army immediately rushed over and surrounded the place. Fu Jian signaled that it was okay, and they withdrew.
Although the power does have a deterrent effect, why doesn't Fu Jian not believe it?
Regardless of whether he believed it or not, it was impossible for Xun to tell Fu Jian everything without reservation. The Kunyu Kingdom relied on the advantage of weapons to survive among powerful countries. Without the advantage of weapons, the Kunyu Kingdom would not be defeated in a matter of minutes.
destroyed.
Fu Jian saw that Xun seemed to have no reservations, and looked at him with an open heart, and had no choice but to believe that since they were ordinary firecrackers, there was no need to spend money to import them.
It took longer than discussing business cooperation to reach an agreement.
Returning to their hotel, the three of them went straight to their beloved bed and slept beautifully.
After being entertained by Fu Jian for a few days, everyone went back home. After reporting the situation to Ning Yan, they returned to Wuzhangyuan.
The foreign war in Kunyu Kingdom was suspended, and Ning Yu had nothing to do with him. He often went to Wuzhangyuan under the guise of a child to see Yun, and to increase his presence in front of Yun.
Xun has already brought Yao'er to Wuzhangyuan, and Ning Ming clings to Xun to regain his sense of presence. The four children gather together to play or study together. Ning Jing never mentions Jiang Ping again. On the surface, it seems that this person is just a person he met on the street.
I passed by passers-by when I arrived.
The four of them were so happy that Hyun had a headache. Every time she heard that the children were coming, she was very happy. But when she saw that it was Ning Yu who brought them here again, she got a big headache.
Kunyu State and Qin State were temporarily stable.
Let Ning Yan go through his miserable pursuit of his wife slowly. Hyun will still follow his own ideas. (To be continued)
