The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Huang Chenming said calmly: "That's what it means to hang a person."

Wan Lianxing asked: "Can you tell me what was damaged?"

Huang Chenming said: "People, this time someone will definitely die."

Wan Lianxing frowned when he heard this and asked the old butler, "When will Sui Ming be back?"

The old butler replied: "If I can't come back within three days, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the arrangements made by the Marquis."

When Sui Ying saw that they needed help, he volunteered: "My Lord, don't worry. Since people will die, I will lead the troops to support Sha Guanghan. It is better for me to die than to die at the mercy of fate."

Wan Lianxing slammed his palm on the table, and with the same thud, he said sternly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you had enough of living?"

Suiying saw that Wan Lianxing was angry because of his words, and he also became afraid. He lowered his head and said in a pleasing manner: "My lord, I know how to deploy troops. I read military tactics when I have nothing to do." As he said that, Suiying took out the military book in his arms and showed it to Wan Lianxing.

Wan Lianxing didn't even look at Suiying. Suiying, who didn't get the good face, said with his head down: "I was just joking. You're really angry? I've done a lot of risky things, and they all turned out well. Judging from Sha Guanghan's appearance, the soldiers he leads should be strong. Maybe he can handle it by himself. We don't have to do anything. According to the Art of War, the Southern Yan Kingdom is just trying to test the situation this time. There won't be many people coming. I guess about 5,000."

Ge Dongqing said, "If there are 5,000 people, then we won't be afraid."

Suiying said: "If we win, it's easy to deal with. If we lose, it's all over. So this time we must defeat the Southern Yan Kingdom. I'm bringing 3,000 crossbowmen and 2,000 infantrymen. I'm not afraid of them even if they have 10,000 men."

Wan Lianxing finally spoke: "Since you volunteered and are well versed in leading troops in battle, let's do as you say."

Suiying said: "Although I am not as good as Suiming, I am not weaker than Suixing."

Suixing was supervising the iron smelting in the ironworks in Mochun County. Wan Lianxing was reluctant to attack Suiying, but he had to remind him: "Although Suixing is on par with you, he is a master of strategy and careful thinking. It is difficult for the enemy to gain an advantage from him. You should learn more from Suixing's good side."

Suiying was not convinced: "I am very smart and can come up with a brilliant plan as soon as I think of it."

Wan Lianxing said: "Just because of what you said, I am even more worried about you. Whatever clever ideas you have, they are all bad ideas."

"My Lord, there is no one more suitable than me at the moment."

Wan Lianxing said: "You can be used, but you must not act rashly this time. You must learn to observe the situation. Don't be soft-hearted when you should take action, and don't rush out when you shouldn't. Remember, don't be reckless."

"I know, I know. I'll go to the West Courtyard to check on the troops."

At night, Suiying took his men away. This was a secret operation, and apart from these few people, not even Cheng Feng knew about it.

On the second day, Cheng Feng's family of three took Yuhua, Qiao Rong and Bajiao to the paddy fields, saying that they were going to collect clams today.

In fact, the plan was to collect two baskets of river clams and open them to see if there were the pearls they talked about. After all, these clams have been raised for a long time, and according to the original plan, it was time to collect them.

Several people went into the water with their pants rolled up. Cheng Youning was the worst off. Once he went in, he was literally soaked in water. However, he not only didn't care, he actually enjoyed it.

Each of them held a hook in their hands and started catching oysters, which were easy to catch, much easier than crabs.

After a while, each person grabbed half a basket, and together there were definitely two baskets.

Cheng Feng asked: "Just split it open directly?"

Shang Xi said: "This should be the only way."

Before Cheng Feng could make a move, Bajiao pried one open with a knife. She turned over the flesh and shouted in surprise, "There are really pearls, there are really pearls."

Cheng Youning said in a didactic tone: "Don't make a fuss and act like an inexperienced person. After all, you belong to me, Cheng Youning."

"Ah - why are there pearls here? Are they really pearls?" This shout was not from Bajiao, but from Yuhua, who had never seen the world. She had already picked out a pearl with her hands.

Cheng Youning rolled her eyes and said, "Mom, this is your man. He has never seen the world. He treats a few pearls like treasures."

Yuhua said, "Cheng Youning, don't be so crazy. Do you know what your parents did in the past?"

Cheng Youning said, "He sells popsicles."

Although he didn't know what an ice stick was, he had heard Yuhua tell him about it. Yuhua had been telling him about this since he was a child. Although he was too young to remember it clearly in the past, that incomplete and vague memory was completed by Yuhua in the past few days. He can now recite the stories about his parents.

Yuhua said in a didactic tone: "It's good to know that you are a popsicle seller. Your family is poor. Don't learn from those rich young masters and become a prodigal."

"Yuhua is right. Youning is grateful for your advice."

At this time, Qiao Rong also split open a river clam, and there was also a pearl inside.

Yuhua plopped down on the ground when she saw it and said, "Isn't this a fortune? Why are there so many pearls? There can't be pearls in every river clam."

Shang Xi saw Yuhua's expression and explained, "We planted these pearls."

"Growing? I heard that some people grow soybeans, wheat, tobacco, and rice. When can we grow pearls?" Yuhua couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Shang Xi said: "As long as you master the method, you can also grow pearls."

Yuhua grabbed Shang Xi's hand and said seriously: "Shang Xi, since you are so capable, why do you still farm? Just grow gold. In the future, you will do nothing but grow gold and harvest it."

Shang Xi couldn't help laughing at her words. He thought it was funny: "What are you talking about in your sleep? Gold is a mine, and pearls grow in clams. Do you think I can do anything? Plant gold? You are dreaming. I'm surprised you could come up with that."

Cheng Youning threw the pearls into the basin, muttering, "Yuhua, you just suffer from your lack of education and don't know anything." After saying that, he sighed and shook his head, as if Yuhua was hopeless.

Yuhua said, "Cheng Youning, I'll tell you the truth, I've read more books than your mother."

Cheng Youning chuckled, "I don't believe it, just make up a story to lie to me."

"Don't believe pull it down."

Obviously, none of these people believed it except Cheng Feng. Shang Xi just smiled and said nothing, letting Yuhua talk. She didn't think it was shameful.

Yuhua was addicted to picking pearls, and the other people were almost the same. When they pried open a river clam, it was like opening a treasure chest, and they would cry out in joy as soon as they saw the pearls.

Little did they know that while they were having fun, a disaster was unfolding at the southernmost pass of Fengying.
