"Well, as for food, we'll have it naturally!"
Cheng Yaojin's old face turned slightly red, and it took him a while to hold back these few words.
However, when he finished saying this, he immediately felt something was wrong.
It was obviously me who was questioning Chang He, so why now, someone else was questioning me?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but look up at Duan Zhixuan beside him in confusion.
Old Duan's face still looks like a cheerful good guy, but just by looking at the slightly twitching corners of his mouth, you can tell that this guy is probably going to burst out laughing!
"Then I am waiting for the general's orders at any time!"
On the other side, Chang He was worthy of being a military commander. Even if he became a civilian official like a governor, he did not change his straightforward character at all. With a cold face, he bowed his hands to the two of them, and without waiting for their reply, he He turned around and strode out!
"Hey! Old Duan! Look, look..."
It is said that Cheng Yaojin has been a demon king in Chang'an for so many years, and he has always been the only one to show off to others. Unexpectedly, he was rejected by others today, and the other party was just a Youzhou governor who was several levels below him!
So, after thinking about it, Cheng Yaojin was not calm on the spot, his eyes widened, he jumped on his feet and said angrily: "What kind of attitude is he? Looking down on me, old Cheng? Believe it or not, I will immediately lead people to destroy his governor's office?" "
"Believe it, why don't you believe it?"
Duan Zhixuan was already accustomed to Cheng Yaojin's blabbing temper. He didn't bother to refute when he heard this. He just returned to the charcoal stove and sat down to warm himself up while shaking his head and said: "But, if you destroy I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain to His Majesty the Governor's Office."
"Hmph! It's hard to explain? Could it be that Your Majesty can still lead people to destroy the Duke Cheng's mansion?" Cheng Yaojin had a dark face and snorted bitterly.
"It is impossible to destroy Duke Cheng's mansion, but it is very possible to send you to this miserable place to continue being the governor."
"Ahem..."
Hearing Duan Zhixuan's words, Cheng Yaojin hesitated. In fact, he himself was an extremely smart person. Under his rough and bold appearance, he also had a diametrically opposite delicate heart.
How could he not understand that Chang He was Xiao Lizi's confidant? Otherwise, the emperor would not have sent him to the sensitive land of Youzhou and kept him there for four or five years!
"Hey, what is your Majesty going to do!"
His face changed a few times, but Cheng Yaojin finally just sighed. He didn't want to live in this miserable place, so he had to return to the charcoal stove angrily and sit down again.
"Who knows?" Duan Zhixuan, who was pushed aside by Cheng Yaojin, moved his buttocks and sighed as well.
Counting it all together, it has been several days since they came to this place in Hebei since the Chinese New Year.
Others only thought that they came here this time to clean up Goguryeo, but only Cheng Yaojin and Duan Zhixuan knew that this was not the case.
fight!
Especially the battle to destroy the country!
This is not a child's play where the emperor slaps his head and the generals rush in to fight with a roar!
Not to mention the reasons for the war and the consequences of victory or defeat, let’s just say that the dispatch of generals, the mobilization of soldiers, the distribution of food and military pay are a huge project!
But now? Except for these bare veterans squatting here in pain, there is nothing else. How can there be any meaning of fighting here?
"Hey, Old Duan, do you think His Majesty will be like that person, where the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked, the birds are gone, and the good bow is hidden?"
After staring blankly at the charcoal fire in front of him for a long time, Cheng Yaojin suddenly frowned and looked at Duan Zhixuan with a gloomy expression.
Duan Zhixuan, who also didn't know what he was thinking, was stunned at first when he heard this, and then gave Cheng Yaojin a funny look: "I said, Old Cheng, what do you think? Could it be that His Majesty sent us to this bitter cold place? Just to dig a hole so that we can be buried? In that case, why bother with this? Why not just find a piece of wasteland around Chang'an and do it?"
"Ahem, it seems so!"
When Duan Zhixuan said this, Cheng Yaojin also felt that his idea was a bit funny, so he turned around and said: "Then what are we waiting for here?"
"What are you waiting for? Just wait for His Majesty's order!"
Duan Zhixuan didn't have the delicate temperament of Cheng Yaojin, and he didn't bother to think too much about the things that happened and didn't happen. Hearing this, he just stretched his waist and said: "When the order comes, we will hit whoever His Majesty tells us to hit!" "
"Besides Goryeo, who else can we fight here?" Cheng Yaojin asked dissatisfied.
Duan Zhixuan banged and banged and said, "That's not necessarily true. The Western Turks, Khitans, and Shiwei are all nearby. It's really not possible. We can also fight those mountain bandits, rogue bandits, and big households!"
"You have a big heart!" Cheng Yaojin was amused by Duan Zhixuan's words. He laughed and scolded him first, then thought of something, sighed a little and said: "Hey, it would be nice if that guy Xiao Han was here too. Now, with his ability to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, we don’t have to be trapped here anymore!”
"Him?" Thinking of Xiao Han, Duan Zhixuan also snorted with resentment: "He is in Chang'an now. He is probably too happy to miss Shu. How can he still want our brother?"
"It's just... I heard that this guy has married a beautiful girl. Our brother is starving and freezing in the snow and ice outside. It would be better for him to sleep with his little girl at home, and he is not afraid of squeezing that small body dry. !”
"Hehe, it's easy to squeeze it out, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to cope with it, and when the time comes, Hongxing will come out..."
————————————————
The resentment of Cheng Yaojin and Duan Zhixuan was so powerful that it could be transmitted to Xiao Han in an instant even across thousands of mountains and rivers.
"Ah sneeze..." Suddenly he sneezed, and Xiao Han, who was peeing in the latrine, shook his body and almost peed on his hand. He was so panicked that he hurriedly got into position, shivered twice, and then muttered angrily: "Big Who the hell scolded me again this morning?
In the blink of an eye, several days have passed since Xiao Han married Ziyi.
However, compared with before, with the addition of a mother-in-law, it seems that Xiao Han's life has not changed much.
Except for the hesitation at night whether to go to Ziyi's room or Xue Pan's room today, everything else was done by my nephew lighting lanterns, as usual! Even the people in the house are too lazy to talk about the new owner of their house.
Of course, this is also because Ziyi is so familiar with the people in the house, including the elders such as Sun Simiao and Old Man Hua!
It is estimated that everyone in this house knows that Ziyi will marry the Marquis sooner or later. The difference is just one day sooner or one day later!
Apart from anything else, even the dog at home didn't feel strange when Ziyi appeared so early in the morning. Instead, he took the initiative to greet her and rubbed against her legs.
