Through the years of Liang Zhu

Chapter 62 Thoughtful

"Ma Cai, have you lost your conversation with my father? I don't think he and Prime Minister Xie look very good-looking." Walking side by side with Ma Cai on the stone path in the lower reaches of the Shan River, thinking about how he never When I came out of the main hall, I saw Dad and Xie An's faces turned dark, and I couldn't help asking.But the strange thing is that when Ma Cai invited me to take a walk on the field path in front of them, they didn't stop me.

It was just in the afternoon, and the creek flowed over the bluestones with rustling noises. It was sunny, clear water, slight breeze, beautiful mountains and rivers, and people... were also beautiful.In fact, what I was thinking at this time was that I brought Ma Cai home just like this, and Wang Xizhi didn't get angry when he saw him. It can also be like Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai where lovers finally get married, and then turn around to find that the people around them have stopped.

After listening to my question, Ma Cai stopped his leisurely steps, stared at me for a while and thought about it, and slowly replied with a look of doubts on his face: "This... If it is based on the attitude that Wang Youjun treated me in the past , It seems that it should not be said that this matter has collapsed."

"Can you be more straightforward?" I regained my thoughts and realized that we were not thinking about the same thing at all. I asked with some black lines. I remembered that when I asked him before, he just didn't tell me that he was talking to Wang Xizhi and Xie Xie. What did Ann talk about, it made me feel a little bit uncomfortable.

"To put it bluntly, if I want to marry you, I seem to be in some trouble, and I need a way to solve the trouble..." His tone suddenly changed, and he looked at me with a half-smile, I guess he must be deliberately trying to appease me , calmly waiting for him to say but not to ask.Seeing that I didn't open my mouth, he felt a bit self-defeating, so he could only shake his head and continue, "The first step... is to marry Miss Huanrou first."

"Marry, marry." After hearing this, my face turned dark and I rolled my eyes at him, waved my hand and said casually, and walked forward, this guy, don't want to say it, I'm so anxious to die, he still has My mind is talking nonsense here!

"A Yun, you really want me to marry you!" Ma Cai rushed to catch up with me, showing a somewhat shocked look.I don't believe that he doesn't know what I'm thinking in his heart, if he asks you to marry you, marry him!Can't you see that I'm not speaking from the heart!

Before I could say this, he blocked me back with another sentence: "A Yun, you will definitely regret it."

“好啊,你要是娶桓柔,我就嫁谢玄,咱们两不相欠,看谁后悔。”我看见他满脸严肃的样子说这话的时候,心里很想揍他有没有!Marry your sister!Dare to marry a try!

"Hey, you escaped from the Xie family's marriage. It's hard to marry now. If I don't marry you, who else can marry you?" Looking at Ma Cai's arrogant and arrogant appearance, it really makes people feel very uncomfortable. !He just wanted to be mad at me!

"Ma Cai!" I stopped staring at him, looked at his provocative eyes, and thought to myself, I can't be angry, if I get angry, I will be jealous of him by default!You can't be determined by him now!

"Who says no one will marry Yunzhi?" Behind the stone on the sidewalk, a figure slowly loomed out of the way surprised both of us. Xie Xuan was still wearing a light-colored tunic with flowing patterns, exuding a natural beauty. With a gentle smile on her face, she said leisurely, "If she wants to marry, I will dare to marry her."

I was discouraged all of a sudden, why is this guy Xie Xuan here to join in the fun!You two big men are guarding an unmarried woman and saying such things, have you considered the feelings of the parties involved?

"Unfortunately, Ah Yun won't marry you!" Ma Cai looked at Xie Xuan provocatively to show off.

"That's not necessarily true." Xie Xuan was also not angry, walked up to me swaggeringly, winked at me secretly and smiled, "Isn't it, Yunzhi."

"My cousin is right, everything is unknown." I spread my hands, looked up at the sky and pretended to be deep, "Oh, the weather is good, oh, by the way, my cousin still remembers our first three years ago. Did you see that time? Is it the cousin that Ah Yun met in this bamboo forest? I still remember that my father and Uncle Xie were sitting in the small pavilion, reciting poems, composing poems, drinking and chatting... I sat there Playing in the water by the bridge, I almost fell into the stream, but fortunately my cousin passed by and helped me."

"Oh, I was young at that time..." I looked filled with emotion.Brother Cai, look at you being arrogant with me again, in fact, I don’t remember these things at all, but Lingzhi told me about it, and then added my wild guesses, seeing Brother Cai’s face getting darker and darker, I was in a good mood for a while .

"Okay, Ah Yun, you're cruel! I won't discuss these messy things with you, let's be serious." Ma Cai chased after him with a gloomy face, looked up at the sky, and then at Xie Xuan, before turning his head He turned his head and said with a serious expression, "It's getting late, I should go back to the capital with Prime Minister Xie, and I'll come back to see you in a few days."

"Hey? Are you going with Uncle Xie? Didn't you say that General Huan told you to stay away from the capital? Why did you run back by yourself?" It was Xie Xuan and Xie An who were going back.

"Some things can't be delayed any longer. Do you remember what the head of the mountain taught us in the academy? The chances of winning are greater if you take the initiative to attack. I don't want to hand over my destiny to others. You know me, what I believe must be If you want to get it, whoever wants to block my way, don't blame me for being cruel."

I couldn't help frowning, "What do you think?" Is it famous all over the world or a high-ranking official?

Ma Cai didn't answer my question, and then solemnly said: "Ah Yun, this battle to defend the capital may be very dangerous, you stay in the palace and don't go anywhere, and don't believe any rumors, I will care about everything , you just need to stay at home and wait for me to come back."

I was overjoyed, defending the capital, this means that Ma Cai has decided to stand by us!

"Remember, the next time I come to Kuaiji, I will bring a betrothal gift to ask for marriage. During this period, I will ask Mr. Xie Xuan to accompany you for a few days. However, you can't call me What a bad idea."

"Well, since it's so dangerous, I'll sit at home and wait for you to come." Hearing him say this, warm emotions filled my heart, and I don't need to say much to ask him to guarantee safety, because I always believed that he would Come back safely.

After the farewell, Ma Cai led the Ma family army to escort Xie An back to Jiankang that night, but Xie Xuan stayed in Kuaiji. I asked him why he didn't go back with his uncle. He explained that General Huan had favored him by promoting him. , he didn't want to go back and make an enemy of it.This is the difference between Xie Xuan and Ma Cai. Individuals have their own choices, and there is no right or wrong.

In the following days in the palace, I spent most of my time with Wang Xizhi. Wang Xizhi's favorite thing to do was to teach Wang Zhenzhi how to practice handwriting.Xie Xuan lives not far from the palace, which is the old Dongshan villa where Xie An temporarily lived when he lived in seclusion in Kuaiji. When Mr. Xie married into the Wang family, Xie An gave this mansion as a dowry to Mr. Xie. He didn't serve as an official, but only helped Wang Xizhi at home to take care of the land acquisition and rural accounting when he moved to Kuaiji. He and Mr. Xie usually lived in that mansion.

Although I have some opinions on Wang Ningzhi, Mr. Xie is six or seven months pregnant, and his mind has been completely focused on his wife and children. In addition, he knows that I will take over the military power of the Wang family in place of my elder brother. He didn't bother to ask about Ma Cai and I anymore.In fact, I can see that Wang Ningzhi has a deep relationship with my eldest brother. He often asks me about his trips to the army and fights. Zhang Jun's cavalry, such as how he defended Luoyang City to the death...

Wang Ningzhi told me that my eldest brother had never had a wife in his life because he joined the army, but he liked children very much, so Wang Ningzhi wanted to adopt his first child to his eldest brother, let him grow up in the name of his eldest son, and return it to him. The unborn child has long been given a name, called Wang Nianzhi, which means to miss his eldest brother Wang Xuanzhi forever.

In addition to these things, I will take some time every day to watch the training of the Wang Family Army. Since the Qingqi Battalion was not formed, I still asked Wang Gui Xueping to select another 64 outstanding members from the Wang Family Army. , Just rounded up the whole number, Xie Xuan went to the army to practice when he was free, helping Wang Gui and the others to train.

"Yunzhi, two important news. Let me talk about the first one first. The capital of the Yan Kingdom was breached, and Qin Xiang Wang Meng personally led the attack." Putting on a military uniform, he and Ganoderma lucidum just finished watching the Wang family's army training. While resting in the gazebo, Xie Xuan came to chat with me enthusiastically.

"So fast? What about General Murong?" I was startled and replied.

"You said Murong Chui, who defeated Huan Wen in the battle of Fangtou, made great military exploits for Yan State, and gained a great reputation, but he was jealous of his brother, and tried to get rid of him again and again. General Murong couldn't bear to kill his own flesh and blood. There was a domestic turmoil in Yan, and he kept giving in. However, there were too many enemies in the court, and even the Queen Mother wanted to get rid of him wholeheartedly. At that time, the King of Qin was recruiting talents, and he was discouraged to protect his family, so he went to seek refuge with King Fu of Qin Jian. Think about it, the kingdom of Yan is not enough without Murongchui, and Wang Meng has long wanted to destroy Yan, and he led the Qin army to capture Yandu in less than a month."

"Isn't this self-inflicted?" This is the so-called master of high merit!Gongdou drama!

"That's not the point. The point is Wang Meng and Fu Jian. The last time I heard you talking about the cavalry of the Yan Army, you said that their cavalry is much stronger than that of the Qing cavalry battalion. Isn't it true that Qin's iron cavalry is even stronger? Fu Jian Jian has now unified the north, and after a few more years of rectification, won't he send all the soldiers of the whole country to attack Jin in the south?" Xie Xuan worried.

"Don't worry about it, isn't there still a few years left? What are you afraid of? If they dare to come, let them go and never return! Besides, don't you still have you," I laughed seeing him like this.

"Yo, you are so arrogant, I am not as capable as you." Xie Xuan curled his lips and said.

"Young man, don't underestimate yourself, don't you know that you are the future hope of Jin!" I calmly took a sip of water and smiled, "Although the Qin cavalry is powerful, the navy is weak, and our army is not as good as Qin in combat. The army, but fortunately we have a dangerous terrain. If the Qin army wants to go south, it must go by water, so instead of lamenting here, you should seize the time of the past few years and suggest to the prime minister to build more ships and train more sailors. The army of the Qin army marched south, but having more troops is not necessarily a good thing. Even if he has the tendency to throw his whip to stop the flow, as long as his front army is in chaos on the water, the follow-up troops will definitely be chaotic. Believe in your wisdom, when the time comes, there will be chaos. Big win."

"Yunzhi, what you said seems to make sense! Throwing the whip and cutting off the flow? This adjective is not bad. It's rare that you trust me. I have such a small reputation, and no one will support me if I want to lead an army to fight against the enemy. Xie Xuan thought for a while and smiled.

"Don't worry, don't you still have a prime minister's uncle, he will support you. You can also recruit brave men from the people from the north to form and train an elite army, called Beifu soldiers! I counted my fingers Now, if the Qin army wants to go south, they must go back through Feishui, and the two armies will face each other across Feishui. Cousin Xie, you will definitely win a battle with more victories and become famous in one battle! Don’t forget that you are the treasure tree of Xie’s family! "I pretended to pinch my fingers meaningfully.

"Pfft, thanks for your good words!" Xie Xuan couldn't help laughing when he saw me look like a god stick, "However, the suggestion of forming a 'Beifu soldiers' can be considered, maybe it can be as brave as big brother's light cavalry battalion. If it doesn’t work, I’m sure I’ll be able to catch up with Ma Cai’s Ma Jiajun!"

I nodded and patted him on the shoulder encouragingly, "Don't worry, I'll definitely catch up. Then what's the second thing you want to say?"

"By the way! You only talked about defending against foreign enemies, and forgot to talk about internal strife!" Xie Xuan suddenly changed his face when he heard my question, and got up and said anxiously: "Yunzhi, Ma Cai has received an order to enter the palace to lead the army, leading the imperial army To defend the imperial city, Sima Huan agreed! This is too bad, Sima Huan probably wants to force the palace, so he sent a horse to serve as an internal response!"

"How do you know that brother Cai is not the emperor's man? Maybe he really went to protect the emperor." I was startled when I heard this, and pretended to be calm.

Xie Xuan shook his head, frowned and analyzed: "But news came from the capital that he agreed to the marriage between General Huan and Miss Huan's family, and all the invitations were sent out. They will definitely be invited to participate at that time, I guess 80.00% of them will take the opportunity to control the officials at that time, and then force the palace! Sigh, what the hell is he thinking about this horse."

I was stunned, and couldn't help but patted the table and stood up: "What he said is true! He did tell me that to solve the problem, he must marry Miss Huanrou first!" I thought he was just kidding me! "When are they married?"

"The invitation says it will be three days later." Xie Xuan was startled by my posture, and blurted out.

"Hundan! What girl Rou! My Wang Yunzhi's people dare to snatch her!" I'm really angry, why don't you be in such a hurry! "Ganoderma lucidum! Go back and pack my things, I have to go to the capital myself!"

"Yunzhi, don't act recklessly, Ma Cai might have his own plan, the capital is very dangerous now! Are you going to add to the chaos?" Xie Xuan was anxious, as if he regretted telling the story.

"I'm just going to add fire to them!" Damn it, you don't have to sacrifice your luster to save the country!
