Lu Lingqi calmed down and said that she would no longer mess around in the future and would learn from Gan Qian honestly.
With Lantian's current status, Lu Lingqi rarely has the opportunity to cook, and her main energy is spent on educating the three boys, while Gan Qian quietly teaches the two girls.
Liu Shu and Liu Wan grew up very fast, and in a few years they would reach the age of marriage. Fortunately, these two had already decided on a match. Mi Zhen's daughter was promised to Zhang Bao by Liu Bei, and Liu Wan wanted to marry. Marry Lan Yuan as his wife.
Because they both live in the same compound, in order to maintain the sense of mystery they deserve, Gan Qian lets her two daughters stay in the east wing and the small garden behind the wing all year round.
After an awkward moment, Lu Lingqi changed the subject, "Husband, what were you and Shi Zai talking about just now?"
Lan Tian replied: "Yide captured Jiangzhou two months ago. The road to Jiameng Pass should be opened soon. The people from the field prepared for my brother-in-law will soon enter Sichuan. I asked Shi Zai to release the people from the school in advance. Once released, I will go back to Linwu in a few days to gather people and visit the old owner Deng."
Lu Lingqi sighed: "My husband always does things based on his plan. That's why your appeal is so strong that they are willing to give up their stable life and leave their hometown to farm in the remote Yizhou..."
"Xiaojun, do you think it is better to have war for generations, or to use the efforts of one or two generations to let future generations live a stable life?" Lan Tian asked with a smile.
"Of course I choose the latter." Lu Lingqi nodded.
"So personal gains and losses must give way to the general trend of the world. If you can hit with one punch, you will avoid hundreds of punches. Regardless of the remoteness of Yizhou now, maybe many years later it will be a place that many people yearn for." Lantian sighed meaningfully, his original There is a saying in the world that "young people cannot enter Sichuan, and old people cannot leave Shu".
Lu Lingqi seemed to understand, but accidentally discovered that the water in front of Lantian had been drunk. She recalled the failed 'medicated porridge' just now, so she called Deng Ai to add another bowl.
At this moment of interruption, Lu Lingqi noticed that Lan Tian's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Women's intuition is naturally very strong. She turned sideways and asked: "Ordinarily I shouldn't ask about your husband's affairs, but the weather is hot and it's easy to feel depressed now, so why not talk about your worries?" Let me listen to this, you said that one person can calculate the shortcomings and two people can calculate the advantages."
Lantian suddenly noticed that Lu Lingqi had changed. In the past two years, her mind had become more delicate. Could it be that she was tempered by the three children at home?
"It's not a big deal. The people from Xindengzhuang have followed me for many years. They went to Yizhou to farm out of their trust in me. Although they have already given instructions to Zhuge Military Advisor, they still lack a suitable person to manage them..." Lan Tian explained.
"How about finding an agricultural teacher from Quanling Academy? Didn't you have to transfer Linwu Ling there before?" Lu Lingqi asked doubtfully.
Lantian shook his head, "The first teachings in Quanling Academy came from Xindengzhuang. It is not enough for the people to manage these farming villages. Jiameng Pass is already very close to Hanzhong. Xu An is very qualified in government affairs but lacks military means. I will let him Xingba observed Li Yi during this period and found that this person has some strength and can lead troops in battle, but he can only lead troops in battle..."
"Isn't it easy to understand the military? Just let Boping pick two captains from the army." Lu Lingqi suggested.
Lan Tian smiled bitterly: "In fact, Xiao Lizi is the most suitable, but now he has a family and is in charge of tens of thousands of people in Xindengzhuang. I don't want him to be tired from traveling around anymore..."
"Uh... Husband just said that I want to make way for the world..." Before Lu Lingqi could finish her words, she saw Deng Ai striding towards him holding a water bowl. Then she had an idea and said, "How about Shi Zai following you into Sichuan? Husband. This disciple Yunwen Yunwu is also the direct grandson of Mr. Deng, so he is probably more suitable than Li Yang."
Lantian was shocked when he heard this, and Deng Ai had already walked up to him.
"Sir, this is freshly drawn from a deep well. It is the coolest drink to relieve the heat..." Deng Ai put down the water bowl and spoke respectfully. Although the sixteen-year-old had a raw face, he was already almost like an adult.
Lan Tian picked up the water bowl and put it down his throat, but his eyes kept looking at Deng Ai.
Deng Ai touched his face in confusion, "Sir, is there something on my face?"
Lantian put the water bowl on the table and said very seriously: "The people from Xindengzhuang will enter Sichuan in the near future. These are the passionate children of your village. I think it is not suitable for many people to lead them. Your wife I just recommended you to me, I wonder if Shizai would like to be a Diannong Captain?"
Deng Ai's eyes were wide open, as if he didn't believe his ears. In the past few years, he had followed Lan Tian and learned a lot from Gao Shun. Don't dare to speak nonsense.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Deng Ai knelt on the ground and kowtowed gratefully: "Thank you sir, thank you so much, master, I wish you all the best."
"The responsibility of fielding in Jiameng Pass is heavy, especially in the next few years, which will be very hard, but its strategic significance is of great importance. You have been with me for many years, so you should know the purpose of being a teacher." Lantian said meaningfully.
Deng Ai cupped his fists and replied: "General Liu's current situation, and New Dengzhuang's stable life today, all started with my husband's farming in Xinye. This time I went to Sichuan to store grain for Hanzhong. I will definitely live up to my great trust by going here."
"Originally, I wanted to keep you for a few more years to teach more, but now that the situation is tight, let's realize it ourselves. Practice is the best teacher." Lan Tian helped Deng Ai up.
"Disciple understands." Deng Ai looked very excited and kept saluting Lu Lingqi. He had been looking forward to this day since he killed the enemy in Jiaozhou. The world is so big and he has to go on his own.
He originally thought that Lantian would let him start as a pawn, but at the beginning he was given Captain Diannong, which was Lantian's first military position. Deng Ai couldn't help but lament his good luck. If he hadn't met Li Yang, if he hadn't become a disciple Lantian, how old do you need to be to reach this height of success?
Looking at Deng Ai's appearance, Lan Tian warned like a father: "I don't know who you will belong to after arriving at Jiameng Pass, but remember that everyone has their own style of doing things, and they must learn to adapt to the new environment and new rules. You can use the influence of being a teacher to do things, but that will not do you any good in the future."
"Don't worry, disciple, I will be modest and prudent..." Deng Ai replied.
Politics is cruel. In the final analysis, it is about the distribution of interests. Various factions often fight openly and covertly for their own interests. Even in the relatively harmonious Liu Bei camp, the Yuancong faction, the Xuzhou faction, the Jingzhou faction, the Dongzhou faction and the Yizhou faction are all Those at the top need to grasp the balance. If those below are not smart enough, they are likely to become victims of political struggles.
Lan Tian is somewhat special among the Yuan Cong sect. He is essentially as lonely as Guan Yu. Now that Deng Ai is out of his hands, he will inevitably be criticized by people with intentions, so it is more important to take precautions.
Only if you are smart enough will you not become an unlucky child in the struggle.
Lan Tian touched Deng Ai's forehead and encouraged him, "Go and show your talents. Sooner or later, this world will belong to you young people."
