With the wind and snow, the winter in Dongfuzhou this year has been extraordinarily long.

However, compared to other state capitals, Dongfu State is considered the most peaceful state.The war between the Wei family and the foreign race was in full swing, and it didn't stop because of the wind and snow.Although the Ye Clan was granted the title of Governor by the imperial court, and although he could legitimately settle in Xishen Prefecture, but because of Wei Clan's surprise attack, there was no way to develop influence in Xishen Prefecture.

The soldiers of the Wei family were strong and strong, and the foreign race was also the most elite troops. The two sides fought for many days, each winning and losing, but no one swallowed the other.

The poor people in Xishenzhou were miserable, but those who were able to leave would drag their families with them to East Fuzhou to escape for their lives.Jing Lan ordered the Western Territory to strictly investigate the identities of the refugees, and as long as it was confirmed that they were not spying, they would be placed in Dongfu Prefecture and resettled in a village.

In just 47 days, tens of thousands of refugees were resettled in Dongfuzhou.

The benevolent reputation of the governor of Dongfuzhou gradually rose. At the same time, the news of Jin Shoujiang's victory came and shocked the world.

The pass between Damo and Xishenzhou was once again captured by Liang Jun, which was tantamount to choking the throat of the alien race and cutting off their food supply.The Ye clan had the edict from Daliang, so they could justifiably stay in Xishen Prefecture, but the foreign race did not. Staying in Xishen Prefecture and continuing to fight against the Wei clan was not legitimate, and their position was extremely embarrassing.

What's more terrible is that the banner Jin Shoujiang played was actually the word "Wolf Roar", which was the long-lost banner of "Wolf Commander".

Jin Shoujiang was gray-haired, but his sword was not old. That battle was fought extremely beautifully, as if the god of war a hundred years ago had revived. Those aliens who had escaped back to the desert by chance would tremble with fear every time they recalled it.

Afterwards, Jin Shoujiang took the 5000 troops to guard Guancheng. The foreign race tried to recapture Guancheng, but Jin Shoujiang was beaten head-on every time. After several attempts, he had no choice but to give up.

This is also a rare victory for Daliang in the past few years. When the court heard that the Golden Spear General had reappeared in the Jianghu, the little emperor Chu Xin wept with joy in the court hall that day. The title of General Zhen Guo.

The Ye family thought about it, the foreign race thought about it, and the Wei family thought about it. The Jing family in Dongfuzhou would definitely not sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight for a whole winter.It's just that they didn't expect that Jin Shoujiang would be the trump card in Jing's hands. This blockbuster battle caught the three parties by surprise.

The foreign races did not dare to fight anymore, they took the barren mountain trails over the mountains in batches, and retreated to the desert.

The Wei family didn't dare to advance rashly. Once they seized the opportunity to swallow the Xishen Prefecture, which is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ye family, it would be tantamount to rebellion.Although the Wei family has not been under the jurisdiction of the imperial court for a long time, if the name of rebellion is confirmed, the princes of the world will attack it. It is false to suppress the rebellion, but it is true to divide the power.Therefore, the Wei family would not do such a stupid thing, and immediately chose a truce and returned to Changqing Prefecture to cultivate their health and rest.

The Ye Clan lost the backing and support of the foreign race, but also ushered in a good time to break free from the control of the foreign race.

It's just that there is a dilemma.

If the Ye clan threatens to break with the foreign race, there will be no one to ally with in the future; if the alliance with the foreign race is broken, the Dongjing clan will definitely use this to send troops to pacify Xishenzhou.

The imperial court has always relied heavily on the Dongjing family. As long as the Jing family sent troops, the imperial court would decree to abolish the Ye family's title of governor, and directly charge the Ye family with the crime of colluding with other races.

It is not difficult to eliminate Ye Shi, who is currently alone and alone, but the difficulty is that Ye Shi is driven into a hurry, and the trapped beasts are dying to resist, and the casualties caused by soldiers and horses are really not worth it.

There are not many troops available to the imperial court, and the troops that Dongfu Prefecture can mobilize are even more limited. After weighing the balance, Jin Shoujiang chose to stand still and guard the pass city to prevent aliens from entering the pass.

This is also the strategy set with Liu Xi, to encircle the prey first, and leave the rest to Jing Lan and her.

When the news of Jin Shoujiang's success reached Donglin City, Liu Xi and Jing Lan were dealing with official duties in the government office.

"The time has come." Liu Xi was overjoyed, her eyes brightened.

Jing Lan knew what she was referring to, and she had been waiting for this day for a long time, "After finishing this matter, when Aunt Hong and Fourth Brother come, we will happily have a reunion dinner!"

Liu Xi smiled and said, "Then why don't you leave?"

"Go!" Jing Lan nodded, and walked towards the backyard with Liu Xi.

Since Ye Tianxin's poison was detoxified, for more than 40 days, she hardly ever went out, just stayed quietly in the room alone.Except for Liu Xi who would say a few words when he went to visit, when the others went to visit, they just hung their heads silently, wondering what they were thinking?

As a hostage, he was targeted and silenced by foreigners, and fell in the Jing family for many days, but no one from the Ye family came to rescue him.

She is like an abandoned chess piece, even her relatives don't care about her.Liu Xi thought, she probably had the same reaction as Ye Tianxin when she changed places.

After all, she is still a prisoner after all, and her life has always been controlled by her.

So after getting along for more than 40 days, Liu Xi's wariness towards her has also decreased a lot, and she even has a little sympathy for her.

There is some distance from the front hall of the government office to the backyard, Liu Xi thought of something while walking, "Alan, I have counted the silver taels shipped from Haicheng these few days, and found that there is a bill from your side. "

Jing Lan knew that she couldn't hide it from her, "Yeah."

"Huh?" Liu Xi thought she would explain honestly, "Just one word?"

"I have other uses for that money, don't worry, I didn't spend it on a feast, it's a business." Jing Lan didn't expect to tell Liu Xi at this time, "I count the days, it should be finished on New Year's Eve, and then I will be Say it in front of Aunt Hong."

Liu Xi became even more curious, "You haven't returned home for several nights, so you're busy with this business?"

Jing Lan smiled and nodded, but did not speak.

Liu Xi was surprised to find that this girl Jing Lan was hiding things now, without any clues.Even now, when she looks at her eyes, she has to raise her eyes slightly. It has to be said that this girl has grown up again, and is now an inch taller than her.

Liu Xi took a closer look at Jing Lan's face, handsome and gentle, standing in front of him wearing a unicorn-patterned official uniform, although his body was still a little thinner, but his appearance was really good-looking, every time Liu Xi looked at it, he secretly felt uneasy.

With a good background, handsome appearance, and now that he has become famous, he is afraid that he has been targeted by many aristocratic families.

"It's better to come back earlier at night, and don't provoke any vixens or female ghosts back home." Thinking of the sourness, Liu Xi warned in a cool voice.

Jing Lan suppressed a smile and said, "How dare I?"

Liu Xi raised her eyebrows, "So it's because I don't dare, not because I don't know how to do it."

Jing Lan thought to herself that she had said the wrong thing, and said anxiously, "I definitely won't!"

"So, very good." Liu Xi pursed her lips and smiled.

Jing Lan shook her head and smiled softly, her eyes were gentle, and those unspoken love words could only be expressed with this affectionate glance.

Liu Xi felt her cheeks burn suddenly, she lowered her voice and said, "Little thief, be presumptuous." After she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of Jing Tan by the railing from the corner of her eye, she quickly suppressed her smile, and frowned and looked over .

Jing Tan smiled flatteredly at Liu Xi and said, "Sister-in-law." After speaking, he looked at Jing Lan with a smile, "Xiao Wu, is there anything Second Brother can help you with?"

He has eaten a lot of soft nails from Liu Xi these days, so every time he is in front of Liu Xi, he never dares to make mistakes. Instead, he actively asks Xiao Wu and wants to help Xiao Wu to do something practical, so that Liu Xi Admired her.

The smile on Jing Lan's face remained undiminished, and since Shen Jiangli knew what Jing Tan was thinking, she would also help Liu Xi smooth things over, "Sister-in-law, you go there first, I really need my second brother to help me with something. "

Liu Xi was also happy to make things right. Although she didn't know when Jing Lan noticed her second brother's thoughts, Jing Lan didn't say anything, but she chose not to ask, and she knew it.

She nodded, and went straight to Yetianxin's small courtyard.

Jing Tan looked at Liu Xi's back, sighed softly, and stepped forward, "Sister-in-law seems to be in a bad mood?"

"I'm sure I won't be in a good mood because of our unsatisfactory plans all day long." Jing Lan finished following his words, and stretched out her arms to hook Jing Tan's shoulders, "Second Brother, Uncle Nine is going to pick up Aunt Hong and Mrs. Fourth brother has been here for a few days, counting the distance, it should be here in a few days. Third brother and I really can’t get away, why don’t second brother help us meet Aunt Hong?”

"That's easy to say." Jing Tan nodded in agreement.

Jing Lan smiled and said, "Then thank you, Second Brother!" After speaking, she patted Jing Tan on the shoulder twice, and was about to leave.

"Xiao Wu!" Jing Tan suddenly called Jing Lan, "Next time...can you ask Second Brother to do something else?"

"It's a big deal for the whole family to have a good reunion dinner! It's a big deal more important than anything else!" Jing Lan said solemnly, "Only the second brother can rest assured."

Jing Tan had no words to refute, so he could only sigh deeply.

"I still have important things to do, second brother, Aunt Hong and fourth brother will leave it to you!" Jing Lan patted Jing Tan's shoulder twice, and left quickly without waiting for Jing Tan's answer.

Jing Tan faintly felt that he seemed to be getting farther and farther away from Liuxi, and this sense of powerlessness made him almost crazy.

But he couldn't complain, couldn't vent, and could only spend time alone.When will the person who knows his life experience reappear?

Liu Xi deliberately slowed down her pace, and when she heard footsteps behind her, she turned her head and saw Jing Lan, and couldn't help laughing and asked, "What method did you use this time?"

"I think Aunt Hong must miss him very much." Jing Lan only said one sentence, and Liu Xi knew what she said to send Jing Tan off.

Thinking of this, Liu Xi could only sigh bitterly.

"Alan..." she called out in a low voice.

Jing Lan knew what was causing her unhappiness, and said with a smile, "I won't let it happen."

Liu Xi is most worried that she will become a source of trouble between Jing Tan and Jing Lan, and disturb her most cherished Dong Jing family.When a person has the most cherished people and things, it is equivalent to having an extra weakness, but Liu Xi clearly knows this weakness, but cherishes it most, and is reluctant to hurt any of them.

She thinks that she has not given Jing Tan any chance to fantasize, she just doesn't know that once some obsessions become demons, whether she gives or not is the "cause" that Jing Tan can't ask for, and it will become the "fruit" of wishful thinking in the future.

I hope everything will not happen as Ah Lan said.

Liu Xi forced a smile, "I don't want to hurt any of you."

Jing Lan nodded, pretending to be solemn, "I've been hurt in my previous life, and with me in this life, don't even think about it!"

Liu Xi's heart suddenly picked up, and she frowned and asked tentatively: "What happened in your previous life...you still haven't let it go?"

"I haven't tied the culprit firmly and taught me a lesson. Naturally, I can't let go." Jing Lan looked at her tenderly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "So, even if someone escapes to the ends of the earth in this life, I will still take someone away." Catch it back."

Liu Xi couldn't help laughing, "It's up to you?"

"What's wrong? Don't believe me?" Jing Lan asked aggressively.

Liu Xi was disturbed by Jing Lan, and her depressed worries dissipated a lot. She has always refused to admit defeat, "Do you want to make gestures?"

"Compare to compare!"

"Then tonight..."

Liu Xi said the last three words very softly, but Jing Lan heard the burning of the ears, and replied very softly, "Climb...just climb!"
