Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive
Chapter 109: A Horse Heart Ape Comes to Qingqing
Ping An should not have believed in things like fate, because before that, he had always accepted materialistic values.
However, once time travels, Ping An feels that there are some things that even if you don't want to believe, you can't do it.
Can materialistic values explain time travel?
Maybe it is possible. After hundreds of years of technology development, the existence of brain waves is proved, and the existence of space-time tunnels, space wormholes and other things are proved. By then, traveling through time and space will become a matter of course. .
But after all, the current technology can't do it, it just exists in people's fantasy.
So, just like what Zhao Can said, one of them time-traveled and the other was reborn, isn't this fate?Is there a better and more reasonable explanation?
And Ping An also agrees with Zhao Can's statement.If he is not the man he is today, and Zhao Can is not the Zhao Can now, then the two of them may not be able to get together.Ping An has read a sentence before that is between pretentiousness and chicken soup: meeting the wrong person at the right time is a kind of sadness; meeting the right person at the wrong time is a sigh.
And he must be thankful that he and Zhao Can met the right person at the right time.
Zhao Can's technique of grilling fish is indeed very good.At least in ancient times when the seasoning was so simple, the taste he made was similar to the grilled fish that Ping An used to eat in high-end restaurants. Not much more.
Of course, it's hard to say exactly how much of it is Zhao Can's handicraft and how much is the addition of Xi Shi in the eyes of beholders.
The two leaned together and finished eating the fish one bite at a time. There was still plenty of firewood, so Ping An asked Zhao Can to dig a few chunks of ice in the river and came back. He boiled hot water in a large pot, and the two of them took a bath.However, due to the limited conditions here, there is no bathtub - even if there is, it is estimated that two people cannot use it with confidence, so the two just filled a basin with water and scrubbed it casually.
Even so, being able to take a hot bath at this time makes people feel much more comfortable.
When Zhao Can returned to the room, Ping An was thinking about what he was going to do next.In fact, he found out that he couldn't go to the grassland with Zhao Can. Although he was a little regretful, he was also relieved.Now that the war has just ended, there are actually quite a few things that Ping An needs to do.
Especially since he has been away from Qinzhou for a long time, he won't go to see it, and he really can't rest assured.
And since the battle was over, Zhao Can was going back to the capital, and Ping An would definitely have to go back quickly, so there was not much time left to stay in the northwest.And if the matter in hand cannot be properly arranged, he will not leave at ease.So the things to be busy next are really numerous and trivial.
But now that he's here, Ping An doesn't have to worry about these things anymore.To be happy in life is to have fun, if you can't have fun when you are playing, and if you can't do things well when you are doing things, then you are putting the cart before the horse.
However, this does not prevent him from arranging and making plans for the next thing to do in his mind.In this way, after he returns, he can quickly unfold it.
But as soon as Zhao Can entered the room, Ping An turned his attention to him.
Naturally, the conditions of the houses in the village cannot be so good.However, this kind of earth kang burned in the northwest made Ping An very interested.
In his last life, except for a few rural villages in the north, there was no such thing as a kang.Because as people's living conditions are getting better and better, air conditioners have also begun to drop in price and become popular, which is naturally much more convenient, quicker and cleaner than kang heating.Moreover, there is collective heating in the north, so the earth kang is naturally useless.
So this is the first time Ping An has seen this thing.The two of them used a stove to boil water before, and the kang was very hot at the moment. He was lying on it and studying excitedly. When he saw Zhao Can come in, he waved to him, "Fenglou, this is more interesting than the earth dragon in the palace." too much."
Sleeping in the palace is of course a bed, but where a master like Zhao Can lives, there are hot water pipes on the floor, and the room is very warm.
Zhao Can looked at the large clay kang, his eyes gradually darkened, "Yes."
This kang is the place where the villagers and their families sleep, so it is naturally much wider than the beds in the palace. His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince expressed his satisfaction.Moreover, Tianshu didn't know where he got the new quilt, and the back was embroidered with big red mandarin duck patterns, it was unexpectedly appropriate to use it at this time.
Ping An has already taken off his outer clothes at this moment, and is wrapped in a quilt, revealing a flushed face and long hair, which looks...very delicious.
Zhao Can kicked off the shoes, and directly pressed Ping An through the quilt.
Their eyes met, and both of them saw something in the other's eyes.A moment later, Zhao Can called Ping An's name in a low voice, then lowered her head and held his lips.
The kiss was lingering at first.Gradually, it turned into a frenzy like a violent storm.When the two parted, each other's breath was short of breath, their temple hair was disheveled, and even their coats were a little wrinkled.
Ping An stretched out his hand to try Zhao Can, then quickly lifted the quilt and said, "You are very cold, come in and warm up."
Zhao Can sneaked in, and pulled Ping An into his arms.
Covered by the quilt, the two of them quickly became hot.Zhao Can kissed Ping An delicately while reaching out to peel off his clothes.Naturally, Ping An was not to be outdone, and also reached out to pull his clothes. After a while, the two of them were skin-to-skin.
In this kind of thing, although they have only experienced each other once, they are impressive.After many years, I still don't feel unfamiliar, and soon sank into it together.
When they finally went in, both of them couldn't help but let out a slight sigh, full of endless satisfaction.
Doing happy things with a lover is the greatest happiness in the world, but that's all.
During this period, Zhao Can kept calling Ping An's name in a low voice, not knowing what was wrong.Ping An promised a few times at first, but then he could only hum.
When the clouds gathered and the rain rested, Ping An felt exhausted all over and could barely open his eyes, so he just wanted to close them and go to sleep.
However, Zhao Can is no longer Wuxia Amon. Now that he knows how he feels about Ping An, he naturally understands that men and women are different and cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, he added some knowledge in this area and knew that he should help Ping An at this moment. Clean up your body.
Fortunately, the hot water that was boiled before was still available. Zhao Can put on his clothes, went to fetch water and came back to scrub Ping An's body and clean it up.Then he climbed back onto the bed and pulled him into his arms.
He stuck it up from behind Ping An, put one hand under Ping An's neck, let Ping An rest on his pillow, and put the other hand around his waist and abdomen, and pressed Ping An's legs with one leg, so that the two of them were close to each other. There are almost no gaps attached together.
"Ping An?" He kissed Ping An's neck inch by inch with his lips, as if he had discovered some interesting game, and refused to let go.
Ping An replied in a daze, without opening his eyes.
He was already extremely tired, but Zhao Can was very excited, it seemed that he didn't feel sleepy at all.Not only is he clear-headed, but even Xiao Xiaocan is in high spirits. If it weren't for Ping An, he couldn't take it anymore, and he probably would have to continue to toss.
Of course, the main reason is that I have to hurry tomorrow.If you toss too much tonight, I'm afraid people will see the clues.
Although Zhao Can was not afraid of being known by these people, he didn't intend to publicize it with great fanfare.This is a private matter between him and Ping An, and he has no interest in publicly letting others appreciate comments.
However, it’s okay to talk to Ping An, right?
He yelled twice, seeing that Ping An didn't pay any attention to it at all, he became more and more forceful with his mouth.In the beginning, it was just attached to Ping An's skin, like being lightly touched by a feather. There was a slight chill and itchiness, but Ping An could bear it.Later, seeing that Ping An ignored him, he changed to sucking, and finally even bit a small piece of skin, and bit it lightly with his teeth.
Although it doesn't hurt, it is obviously impossible to continue to ignore him and sleep.
Ping An had no choice but to open his eyes and asked him, "What's wrong?"
"Talk to me." Zhao Can whispered, "I'm not sure, I can't sleep."
Hearing the words, Ping An had no choice but to turn around in his arms and look at him face to face, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know either." Zhao Can said, "I feel like I'm floating, like I'm floating in the sky, stepping on clouds, and I'm dizzy." He sighed softly, "It's like It's like a dream."
Ping An reached out and twisted his waist, "Does it hurt?"
"Of course!" Zhao Can grabbed his hand, "What are you doing?"
"Pain is not a dream." Pingan said angrily, "I almost can dream, if you don't wake me up."
"Peace..." Zhao Can blew into his ear flatteringly, and then stood up towards him, letting him feel Xiao Xiaocan's spirit, "I still want..."
"No." Ping An hurriedly backed away a little, and yawned, "I have to hurry tomorrow. Go to sleep."
"I can't sleep." Zhao Can's mind flashed, "By the way, sing me a song, maybe I will fall asleep after listening to it."
"Then what do you want to hear? Let me tell you first, I haven't sung for a long time, so you can only listen to it." Ping An said helplessly.
Zhao Can thought for a while, but couldn't think of any song at the moment, so he said, "You can sing whatever you want. I'll listen to whatever you sing." He just couldn't fall asleep and wanted to hear the sound of peace.
Ping An rolled his eyes, "Well, yes."
Then he cleared his throat, held back his laughter and began to sing, "The moon is bright, the wind is still, the leaves cover the window lattice, the crickets are called clank, just like the sound of the strings..."
This song was different from what Zhao Can had heard before, but it also had an indescribably quiet feeling, so Zhao Can just stared at Ping An without opening his mouth.When Ping An sang, his body would shake slightly, and Zhao Can found it very interesting watching it all over.
He didn't realize something was wrong until he heard the phrase "Mother's baby close your eyes", "What song is this?"
Ping An had been holding back his laughter, but now he finally couldn't help it and laughed, "Haha...ah, this is a lullaby hahaha..."
...Lullaby, even if Zhao Can didn't know what it was, he understood after hearing these three words.Who needs a bassinet but a baby?And there are words like "mother's baby" appearing.
He pinched Ping An's shoulder, "Okay, you are really getting bolder!"
Seeing his reaction, Pingan laughed even harder. He grabbed Zhao Can's arm and buried his face in Zhao Can's arms. He could only hear muffled laughter and saw his body trembling slightly.When Zhao Can raised his face, Pingan laughed with tears in his eyes.
"Is it so funny?" Zhao Can leaned over and bit his lips.
It was hard for Ping An to hold back her laughter, but she was teased by his gesture and laughed again.It took a long while to finally laugh enough, leaning against Zhao Can's arms out of breath, and asked maliciously, "Does it sound good?"
Zhao Can actually thought about it seriously, "That sounds good. But I have a question."
"what is the problem?"
"Whose mother are you, huh?" Zhao Can asked, staring into his eyes.
There was still a smile in Ping An's eyes, "Whoever agrees will be the one."
Zhao Can raised her eyebrows and stared at Ping An.Only then did Ping An realize that he seemed to have picked a bad topic.In Zhao Can's heart, his mother and concubine might be a very special existence.Although he died young, Zhao Can might be very concerned about the word "mother" alone.
He quickly closed his mouth and apologized softly, "I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing?"
"I shouldn't mention your sadness." Ping An said.
Zhao Can thought for a while and smiled, "Actually, I can't say whether it hurts or not. I have never seen my mother, and I don't know what she looks like. Maybe she once sang a similar ditty to me. ? She is from Jiangnan, and there are many such songs there."
"However," he quickly put on a tiger face again, staring at Ping An, "You are getting bolder, huh?"
"Well... His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince indulged him. You should look for him." Ping An said with a smile.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Can laughed angrily, "That's right, but since you want to be my mother, you should do it to the end."
"What?" Ping An didn't understand.
"Mom, the baby needs to be fed." Zhao Can leaned over and whispered in his ear.I don't know if it was to tease Ping An, but he deliberately pretended to be a child's voice.It's just that with his low voice, it feels wrong no matter what.
Pingan trembled a bit, almost covered in goosebumps.
But Zhao Can seemed to be getting into the drama, and actually put her head into his arms, and started to "feed".
At first, Ping An felt that Zhao Can was playing tricks on him, but soon realized something was wrong.This wild beast!Pingan gritted his teeth, wanting to cry, thinking, if he had known earlier, he would not have teased him, but ended up playing with himself, right?
Zhao Can took advantage of the problem and ate the man again, then hugged him in his arms contentedly, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
……
The two caught up with the army only at nightfall the next day.Because there are too many people, the army can only be stationed in the wild, but in fact, the place where they rest is not far from the next county.For this reason, Zhao Can decided without hesitation to go to the county town for another night and return to the team tomorrow.
Although it is only a county seat, because of the army guarding it, the Xirong people and Beidi people have a big appetite, and they all want to take down Xinzhou and come back to deal with them, so they didn't attack the city. A little worried.
However, as the army came over, the news of the victory came naturally, and the people's faces were already filled with joy.
The shops in the city have resumed their business, and people have come out to walk around. The gates of the city are opened, and the people who originally lived in the village and came to the city to avoid disaster have started to go home one after another.Looking at all this in front of him, Ping An couldn't help sighing, "I hope that one day in the future, even the people in the frontier will not suffer such disasters again."
It would be great if the surrounding barbarian countries could be resolved through peaceful means.
In fact, Ping An is not without plans.
After all, the reason why the prairie people entered the Central Plains to plunder was, on the one hand, because they envied the prosperity of the Central Plains and wanted to get some good things and plunder their children.Secondly, it is also because once natural disasters and man-made disasters cause a large number of livestock to die, their lives will not be able to survive.So every year when there is a shortage of food, I come here to grab it.
Those who truly love war are, after all, still a minority.
So as long as these people can live similarly to the Central Plains in China, there will be no problem.
Therefore, Ping An thinks that as long as the grain output can increase, industry will be developed at the same time, a large amount of high-quality daily necessities will be produced, dumped on the grassland, and all the wealth they have accumulated will be exchanged. By then, the grassland people will get used to attaching to the Central Plains and their core lifeline will be controlled. Naturally, it will not be easy to start a war again.
Of course, it is not easy to achieve this, and it is even more difficult to make this permanent.
However, for Pingan now, all of this is just imagination, and he can try his best to do it. As for the result and whether it can be done, that is all in the future.
After that, he was on his way all the time, and Zhao Can couldn't easily leave the army, and with so many people in the barracks, it was also inconvenient for him to get too close to Ping An.Fortunately, the two of them can live in a tent at night. Although they can't do anything, there is still no problem with kissing and hugging.
After galloping all the way into the grassland, when we were about to reach the destination, the weather was not so hot, and the snow on the road began to melt.So marching became difficult.Especially when you think about building a city in the future, it will be very annoying if there are such wet and muddy places everywhere.
Fortunately, the vegetation on the grassland is rich, and the road condition is not particularly bad after all.
Zhao Can led people to investigate the surroundings for a long time, and finally decided on the place to build the city.
This non-existent city was named Longzhou by the emperor before the war, and the two cities next to it were named Huzhou and Baozhou. , is almost the place of the Three World Wars, and it will naturally cost a lot of money and food to defend it. Taking such a name also means deterring the barbarians.
Longzhou City is not big. ——It is not so easy to build a city in a short period of time, and it is not a big deal if you think about it.Besides, this place will inevitably become the front line of the battle between Dachu and Xirong in the future. If the city is too large, it will naturally be guarded by dividing troops, which is inconvenient.
Like Xinzhou City, the city wall was planned to be very high and thick to prevent the Xirong people from being able to climb over or break it easily.The city is a well-formed rectangle, which is divided into different areas.In a short period of time, it is impossible for many people to live here. Most of the people who live there are troops, so it is very simple.
After the location is selected, the division of labor and cooperation begin.
As for the construction of Longzhou City, a group of special people also participated in it.That is the Xirong people and Beidi people captured on the battlefield before.
Zhao Can guarded these people very closely. After all, it is impossible for those who have already been caught to escape.These people are also ordinary soldiers - the generals will stay in Xinzhou City, and when they return to Beijing to claim meritorious service in the future, these people will also be sent to the capital. As for how to deal with them, that is something the emperor has to worry about.
Although these foreign soldiers were captives in Dachu, they were able to have enough to eat, and their lives were better than when they were in China, so many of them never thought of escaping.There are also some people who miss their families or have other purposes and plan to escape, but they have never found a chance.
Now that the work started, these foreign soldiers were supervised by Da Chu soldiers and were responsible for the construction of the city wall.Of course, it's just some work like moving stones and dirt, otherwise who knows if they will leave some holes in the city wall for future attacks?
As for the architectural planning in the city, let them not know. ——Although Zhao Can didn't think that these people still had a chance to escape.
Because of the large number of people and the division of labor and cooperation, the city was rebuilt two months later.Of course, only the infrastructure has been built. As for the remaining things, it will have to wait for the garrison here to add them slowly.
By the time everyone looks up from their busy lives, spring has already arrived.
Zhao Can spent quite a lot of time in the Northwest. At this time, when things were done, he naturally needed to go back to Hebei, and then set off for Beijing from there.As for peace, he will follow some people and return to Xinzhou with these captives.The other part of the army will naturally stay and garrison here.
So, after leaving the grassland, Zhao Can and Pingan had to separate again.
Although they knew that they would be able to see each other again in the capital soon, both of them felt reluctant to part with each other.After all, this is the first love between the two of them, and they have just untied all the knots in their hearts. It is the time when the relationship is the strongest and the hottest. If they want to separate suddenly, they will naturally not get used to it.
However, thousands of words can only be merged into one sentence when parting: "I will wait for you in the capital."
"See you in Beijing."
However, once time travels, Ping An feels that there are some things that even if you don't want to believe, you can't do it.
Can materialistic values explain time travel?
Maybe it is possible. After hundreds of years of technology development, the existence of brain waves is proved, and the existence of space-time tunnels, space wormholes and other things are proved. By then, traveling through time and space will become a matter of course. .
But after all, the current technology can't do it, it just exists in people's fantasy.
So, just like what Zhao Can said, one of them time-traveled and the other was reborn, isn't this fate?Is there a better and more reasonable explanation?
And Ping An also agrees with Zhao Can's statement.If he is not the man he is today, and Zhao Can is not the Zhao Can now, then the two of them may not be able to get together.Ping An has read a sentence before that is between pretentiousness and chicken soup: meeting the wrong person at the right time is a kind of sadness; meeting the right person at the wrong time is a sigh.
And he must be thankful that he and Zhao Can met the right person at the right time.
Zhao Can's technique of grilling fish is indeed very good.At least in ancient times when the seasoning was so simple, the taste he made was similar to the grilled fish that Ping An used to eat in high-end restaurants. Not much more.
Of course, it's hard to say exactly how much of it is Zhao Can's handicraft and how much is the addition of Xi Shi in the eyes of beholders.
The two leaned together and finished eating the fish one bite at a time. There was still plenty of firewood, so Ping An asked Zhao Can to dig a few chunks of ice in the river and came back. He boiled hot water in a large pot, and the two of them took a bath.However, due to the limited conditions here, there is no bathtub - even if there is, it is estimated that two people cannot use it with confidence, so the two just filled a basin with water and scrubbed it casually.
Even so, being able to take a hot bath at this time makes people feel much more comfortable.
When Zhao Can returned to the room, Ping An was thinking about what he was going to do next.In fact, he found out that he couldn't go to the grassland with Zhao Can. Although he was a little regretful, he was also relieved.Now that the war has just ended, there are actually quite a few things that Ping An needs to do.
Especially since he has been away from Qinzhou for a long time, he won't go to see it, and he really can't rest assured.
And since the battle was over, Zhao Can was going back to the capital, and Ping An would definitely have to go back quickly, so there was not much time left to stay in the northwest.And if the matter in hand cannot be properly arranged, he will not leave at ease.So the things to be busy next are really numerous and trivial.
But now that he's here, Ping An doesn't have to worry about these things anymore.To be happy in life is to have fun, if you can't have fun when you are playing, and if you can't do things well when you are doing things, then you are putting the cart before the horse.
However, this does not prevent him from arranging and making plans for the next thing to do in his mind.In this way, after he returns, he can quickly unfold it.
But as soon as Zhao Can entered the room, Ping An turned his attention to him.
Naturally, the conditions of the houses in the village cannot be so good.However, this kind of earth kang burned in the northwest made Ping An very interested.
In his last life, except for a few rural villages in the north, there was no such thing as a kang.Because as people's living conditions are getting better and better, air conditioners have also begun to drop in price and become popular, which is naturally much more convenient, quicker and cleaner than kang heating.Moreover, there is collective heating in the north, so the earth kang is naturally useless.
So this is the first time Ping An has seen this thing.The two of them used a stove to boil water before, and the kang was very hot at the moment. He was lying on it and studying excitedly. When he saw Zhao Can come in, he waved to him, "Fenglou, this is more interesting than the earth dragon in the palace." too much."
Sleeping in the palace is of course a bed, but where a master like Zhao Can lives, there are hot water pipes on the floor, and the room is very warm.
Zhao Can looked at the large clay kang, his eyes gradually darkened, "Yes."
This kang is the place where the villagers and their families sleep, so it is naturally much wider than the beds in the palace. His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince expressed his satisfaction.Moreover, Tianshu didn't know where he got the new quilt, and the back was embroidered with big red mandarin duck patterns, it was unexpectedly appropriate to use it at this time.
Ping An has already taken off his outer clothes at this moment, and is wrapped in a quilt, revealing a flushed face and long hair, which looks...very delicious.
Zhao Can kicked off the shoes, and directly pressed Ping An through the quilt.
Their eyes met, and both of them saw something in the other's eyes.A moment later, Zhao Can called Ping An's name in a low voice, then lowered her head and held his lips.
The kiss was lingering at first.Gradually, it turned into a frenzy like a violent storm.When the two parted, each other's breath was short of breath, their temple hair was disheveled, and even their coats were a little wrinkled.
Ping An stretched out his hand to try Zhao Can, then quickly lifted the quilt and said, "You are very cold, come in and warm up."
Zhao Can sneaked in, and pulled Ping An into his arms.
Covered by the quilt, the two of them quickly became hot.Zhao Can kissed Ping An delicately while reaching out to peel off his clothes.Naturally, Ping An was not to be outdone, and also reached out to pull his clothes. After a while, the two of them were skin-to-skin.
In this kind of thing, although they have only experienced each other once, they are impressive.After many years, I still don't feel unfamiliar, and soon sank into it together.
When they finally went in, both of them couldn't help but let out a slight sigh, full of endless satisfaction.
Doing happy things with a lover is the greatest happiness in the world, but that's all.
During this period, Zhao Can kept calling Ping An's name in a low voice, not knowing what was wrong.Ping An promised a few times at first, but then he could only hum.
When the clouds gathered and the rain rested, Ping An felt exhausted all over and could barely open his eyes, so he just wanted to close them and go to sleep.
However, Zhao Can is no longer Wuxia Amon. Now that he knows how he feels about Ping An, he naturally understands that men and women are different and cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, he added some knowledge in this area and knew that he should help Ping An at this moment. Clean up your body.
Fortunately, the hot water that was boiled before was still available. Zhao Can put on his clothes, went to fetch water and came back to scrub Ping An's body and clean it up.Then he climbed back onto the bed and pulled him into his arms.
He stuck it up from behind Ping An, put one hand under Ping An's neck, let Ping An rest on his pillow, and put the other hand around his waist and abdomen, and pressed Ping An's legs with one leg, so that the two of them were close to each other. There are almost no gaps attached together.
"Ping An?" He kissed Ping An's neck inch by inch with his lips, as if he had discovered some interesting game, and refused to let go.
Ping An replied in a daze, without opening his eyes.
He was already extremely tired, but Zhao Can was very excited, it seemed that he didn't feel sleepy at all.Not only is he clear-headed, but even Xiao Xiaocan is in high spirits. If it weren't for Ping An, he couldn't take it anymore, and he probably would have to continue to toss.
Of course, the main reason is that I have to hurry tomorrow.If you toss too much tonight, I'm afraid people will see the clues.
Although Zhao Can was not afraid of being known by these people, he didn't intend to publicize it with great fanfare.This is a private matter between him and Ping An, and he has no interest in publicly letting others appreciate comments.
However, it’s okay to talk to Ping An, right?
He yelled twice, seeing that Ping An didn't pay any attention to it at all, he became more and more forceful with his mouth.In the beginning, it was just attached to Ping An's skin, like being lightly touched by a feather. There was a slight chill and itchiness, but Ping An could bear it.Later, seeing that Ping An ignored him, he changed to sucking, and finally even bit a small piece of skin, and bit it lightly with his teeth.
Although it doesn't hurt, it is obviously impossible to continue to ignore him and sleep.
Ping An had no choice but to open his eyes and asked him, "What's wrong?"
"Talk to me." Zhao Can whispered, "I'm not sure, I can't sleep."
Hearing the words, Ping An had no choice but to turn around in his arms and look at him face to face, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know either." Zhao Can said, "I feel like I'm floating, like I'm floating in the sky, stepping on clouds, and I'm dizzy." He sighed softly, "It's like It's like a dream."
Ping An reached out and twisted his waist, "Does it hurt?"
"Of course!" Zhao Can grabbed his hand, "What are you doing?"
"Pain is not a dream." Pingan said angrily, "I almost can dream, if you don't wake me up."
"Peace..." Zhao Can blew into his ear flatteringly, and then stood up towards him, letting him feel Xiao Xiaocan's spirit, "I still want..."
"No." Ping An hurriedly backed away a little, and yawned, "I have to hurry tomorrow. Go to sleep."
"I can't sleep." Zhao Can's mind flashed, "By the way, sing me a song, maybe I will fall asleep after listening to it."
"Then what do you want to hear? Let me tell you first, I haven't sung for a long time, so you can only listen to it." Ping An said helplessly.
Zhao Can thought for a while, but couldn't think of any song at the moment, so he said, "You can sing whatever you want. I'll listen to whatever you sing." He just couldn't fall asleep and wanted to hear the sound of peace.
Ping An rolled his eyes, "Well, yes."
Then he cleared his throat, held back his laughter and began to sing, "The moon is bright, the wind is still, the leaves cover the window lattice, the crickets are called clank, just like the sound of the strings..."
This song was different from what Zhao Can had heard before, but it also had an indescribably quiet feeling, so Zhao Can just stared at Ping An without opening his mouth.When Ping An sang, his body would shake slightly, and Zhao Can found it very interesting watching it all over.
He didn't realize something was wrong until he heard the phrase "Mother's baby close your eyes", "What song is this?"
Ping An had been holding back his laughter, but now he finally couldn't help it and laughed, "Haha...ah, this is a lullaby hahaha..."
...Lullaby, even if Zhao Can didn't know what it was, he understood after hearing these three words.Who needs a bassinet but a baby?And there are words like "mother's baby" appearing.
He pinched Ping An's shoulder, "Okay, you are really getting bolder!"
Seeing his reaction, Pingan laughed even harder. He grabbed Zhao Can's arm and buried his face in Zhao Can's arms. He could only hear muffled laughter and saw his body trembling slightly.When Zhao Can raised his face, Pingan laughed with tears in his eyes.
"Is it so funny?" Zhao Can leaned over and bit his lips.
It was hard for Ping An to hold back her laughter, but she was teased by his gesture and laughed again.It took a long while to finally laugh enough, leaning against Zhao Can's arms out of breath, and asked maliciously, "Does it sound good?"
Zhao Can actually thought about it seriously, "That sounds good. But I have a question."
"what is the problem?"
"Whose mother are you, huh?" Zhao Can asked, staring into his eyes.
There was still a smile in Ping An's eyes, "Whoever agrees will be the one."
Zhao Can raised her eyebrows and stared at Ping An.Only then did Ping An realize that he seemed to have picked a bad topic.In Zhao Can's heart, his mother and concubine might be a very special existence.Although he died young, Zhao Can might be very concerned about the word "mother" alone.
He quickly closed his mouth and apologized softly, "I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing?"
"I shouldn't mention your sadness." Ping An said.
Zhao Can thought for a while and smiled, "Actually, I can't say whether it hurts or not. I have never seen my mother, and I don't know what she looks like. Maybe she once sang a similar ditty to me. ? She is from Jiangnan, and there are many such songs there."
"However," he quickly put on a tiger face again, staring at Ping An, "You are getting bolder, huh?"
"Well... His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince indulged him. You should look for him." Ping An said with a smile.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Can laughed angrily, "That's right, but since you want to be my mother, you should do it to the end."
"What?" Ping An didn't understand.
"Mom, the baby needs to be fed." Zhao Can leaned over and whispered in his ear.I don't know if it was to tease Ping An, but he deliberately pretended to be a child's voice.It's just that with his low voice, it feels wrong no matter what.
Pingan trembled a bit, almost covered in goosebumps.
But Zhao Can seemed to be getting into the drama, and actually put her head into his arms, and started to "feed".
At first, Ping An felt that Zhao Can was playing tricks on him, but soon realized something was wrong.This wild beast!Pingan gritted his teeth, wanting to cry, thinking, if he had known earlier, he would not have teased him, but ended up playing with himself, right?
Zhao Can took advantage of the problem and ate the man again, then hugged him in his arms contentedly, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
……
The two caught up with the army only at nightfall the next day.Because there are too many people, the army can only be stationed in the wild, but in fact, the place where they rest is not far from the next county.For this reason, Zhao Can decided without hesitation to go to the county town for another night and return to the team tomorrow.
Although it is only a county seat, because of the army guarding it, the Xirong people and Beidi people have a big appetite, and they all want to take down Xinzhou and come back to deal with them, so they didn't attack the city. A little worried.
However, as the army came over, the news of the victory came naturally, and the people's faces were already filled with joy.
The shops in the city have resumed their business, and people have come out to walk around. The gates of the city are opened, and the people who originally lived in the village and came to the city to avoid disaster have started to go home one after another.Looking at all this in front of him, Ping An couldn't help sighing, "I hope that one day in the future, even the people in the frontier will not suffer such disasters again."
It would be great if the surrounding barbarian countries could be resolved through peaceful means.
In fact, Ping An is not without plans.
After all, the reason why the prairie people entered the Central Plains to plunder was, on the one hand, because they envied the prosperity of the Central Plains and wanted to get some good things and plunder their children.Secondly, it is also because once natural disasters and man-made disasters cause a large number of livestock to die, their lives will not be able to survive.So every year when there is a shortage of food, I come here to grab it.
Those who truly love war are, after all, still a minority.
So as long as these people can live similarly to the Central Plains in China, there will be no problem.
Therefore, Ping An thinks that as long as the grain output can increase, industry will be developed at the same time, a large amount of high-quality daily necessities will be produced, dumped on the grassland, and all the wealth they have accumulated will be exchanged. By then, the grassland people will get used to attaching to the Central Plains and their core lifeline will be controlled. Naturally, it will not be easy to start a war again.
Of course, it is not easy to achieve this, and it is even more difficult to make this permanent.
However, for Pingan now, all of this is just imagination, and he can try his best to do it. As for the result and whether it can be done, that is all in the future.
After that, he was on his way all the time, and Zhao Can couldn't easily leave the army, and with so many people in the barracks, it was also inconvenient for him to get too close to Ping An.Fortunately, the two of them can live in a tent at night. Although they can't do anything, there is still no problem with kissing and hugging.
After galloping all the way into the grassland, when we were about to reach the destination, the weather was not so hot, and the snow on the road began to melt.So marching became difficult.Especially when you think about building a city in the future, it will be very annoying if there are such wet and muddy places everywhere.
Fortunately, the vegetation on the grassland is rich, and the road condition is not particularly bad after all.
Zhao Can led people to investigate the surroundings for a long time, and finally decided on the place to build the city.
This non-existent city was named Longzhou by the emperor before the war, and the two cities next to it were named Huzhou and Baozhou. , is almost the place of the Three World Wars, and it will naturally cost a lot of money and food to defend it. Taking such a name also means deterring the barbarians.
Longzhou City is not big. ——It is not so easy to build a city in a short period of time, and it is not a big deal if you think about it.Besides, this place will inevitably become the front line of the battle between Dachu and Xirong in the future. If the city is too large, it will naturally be guarded by dividing troops, which is inconvenient.
Like Xinzhou City, the city wall was planned to be very high and thick to prevent the Xirong people from being able to climb over or break it easily.The city is a well-formed rectangle, which is divided into different areas.In a short period of time, it is impossible for many people to live here. Most of the people who live there are troops, so it is very simple.
After the location is selected, the division of labor and cooperation begin.
As for the construction of Longzhou City, a group of special people also participated in it.That is the Xirong people and Beidi people captured on the battlefield before.
Zhao Can guarded these people very closely. After all, it is impossible for those who have already been caught to escape.These people are also ordinary soldiers - the generals will stay in Xinzhou City, and when they return to Beijing to claim meritorious service in the future, these people will also be sent to the capital. As for how to deal with them, that is something the emperor has to worry about.
Although these foreign soldiers were captives in Dachu, they were able to have enough to eat, and their lives were better than when they were in China, so many of them never thought of escaping.There are also some people who miss their families or have other purposes and plan to escape, but they have never found a chance.
Now that the work started, these foreign soldiers were supervised by Da Chu soldiers and were responsible for the construction of the city wall.Of course, it's just some work like moving stones and dirt, otherwise who knows if they will leave some holes in the city wall for future attacks?
As for the architectural planning in the city, let them not know. ——Although Zhao Can didn't think that these people still had a chance to escape.
Because of the large number of people and the division of labor and cooperation, the city was rebuilt two months later.Of course, only the infrastructure has been built. As for the remaining things, it will have to wait for the garrison here to add them slowly.
By the time everyone looks up from their busy lives, spring has already arrived.
Zhao Can spent quite a lot of time in the Northwest. At this time, when things were done, he naturally needed to go back to Hebei, and then set off for Beijing from there.As for peace, he will follow some people and return to Xinzhou with these captives.The other part of the army will naturally stay and garrison here.
So, after leaving the grassland, Zhao Can and Pingan had to separate again.
Although they knew that they would be able to see each other again in the capital soon, both of them felt reluctant to part with each other.After all, this is the first love between the two of them, and they have just untied all the knots in their hearts. It is the time when the relationship is the strongest and the hottest. If they want to separate suddenly, they will naturally not get used to it.
However, thousands of words can only be merged into one sentence when parting: "I will wait for you in the capital."
"See you in Beijing."
