Yijing, Dongcheng Anfu
Looking at the pitch-black soup brought over by the maid, Yasuda Yu's face suddenly showed embarrassment, and he begged to his wife in front of him:
"Ruolan's decoction is really too bitter. I have been drinking it for several days. Can you please stop drinking it today... "
After listening to Yasuda Yu's words, Xiao Ruolan took the medicine bowl from the maid's hand, filled a spoonful of the medicine with a spoon, blew on it, then handed it to Yasuda Yu's mouth and said lightly:
"This is a famous doctor that my sister found. The decoction she prescribed for you, husband, is very good for your health. My sister specially asked me to watch you take the medicine on time. Please drink the decoction quickly, sir!"
After listening to Xiao Ruolan's words, Yasudayu sighed and drank the soup that was brought to his mouth as if he had accepted his fate. After finishing the soup with a grin on his face, he looked at Xiao Ruolan like a child looking forward to a reward, feeling that Yasuda From the look in Yu's eyes, Xiao Ruolan also understood what he wanted to do. A trace of resistance instinctively appeared in her beautiful eyes, but something seemed to have occurred to her, causing Xiao Ruolan to close her eyes.
Seeing Xiao Ruolan closing her eyes, Yasuda Yu immediately seemed to be inspired and kissed Xiao Ruolan very impetuously. Her hands, which were powerless, became restless and began to try to climb the majestic mountain.
At the same time, Grandma Sun secretly observed the situation inside the house. When she saw this scene, she nodded slightly and then left quietly.
As soon as Grandma Sun left, Xiao Ruolan had a glint in her eyes. She pushed away Yasuda Yu who was pressing on her and made trouble, straightened her clothes and said lightly:
"Mr., you are weak and need to take care of yourself!"
Yasuda Yu was pushed away, a little disappointment appeared on his pale face, and he nodded silently...
In response, Xiao Ruolan straightened her clothes and was about to turn around and leave. However, just when she was about to reach the door, Yasudayu suddenly raised her head and asked Xiao Ruolan:
"Ruolan, do you women like a mighty man like your brother-in-law?"
As soon as she said these words and was about to leave Xiao Ruolan, an imperceptible glint flashed through her beautiful eyes like autumn water, and her footsteps stopped. Just when she seemed to be about to say something, Yasuda Yu gave up on herself and was very depressed. said:
"It must be like this. Even my sister is so devoted to him. How can a woman in this world have such a heroic man who doesn't love her brother-in-law? How can I be so weak that I can't even have sex? I'm so useless. !”
Feeling Yasuda Yu's self-blame, Xiao Ruolan also showed some sympathy in her expression, but she did not turn around and go to Yasuda Yu, but turned her back to Yasuda Yu and comforted:
"Take your medicine and don't think too much! You will get better one day!"
After saying that, Xiao Ruolan walked out of the room, leaving Yasuda Yu alone. Because Yasuda Yu was still taking medicine to maintain her health, under An Miaoyi's instruction, Yasuda Yu and Xiao Ruolan were currently sleeping in separate rooms. , Yasuda Yu slept in the best main room in the house, while Xiao Ruolan slept in the east wing.
After returning to the wing, Xiao Ruolan sat on a chair and fell into deep thought. Her long white fingers subconsciously played with a very delicate sachet. However, she did not get much time to think quietly. Cuiyun, a maid in the mansion, was very flustered. Walking into the wing, Xiao Ruolan frowned slightly when she heard footsteps, and then hid the sachet in her sleeve... ······
"Madam, there are little hooves to seduce the young master!" Cuiyun reported to Xiao Ruolan very seriously:
However, what disappointed her was that Xiao Ruolan didn't seem to care much about her words, but looked at her calmly and said:
"Cuiyun, I told you to knock before entering my room!"
When Cuiyun heard this, she didn't understand why Madam didn't care about what she said, but would care about whether she wanted to knock on the door. Although she didn't understand it very well, under Xiao Ruolan's gaze, she still nodded and said :
"Madam, I was wrong!"
After hearing Cuiyun's confession, Xiao Ruolan was still not satisfied, and said with a slight chill in her voice:
"Do it yourself, don't let me do it!"
As soon as these words came out, Cuiyun's expression suddenly became a little aggrieved, but she did not dare to disobey Xiao Ruolan, so she could only grit her teeth and slap herself twice.
Seeing the red slap marks on the little maid's face, Xiao Ruolan nodded slightly with satisfaction and said:
"Now you can go on!"
Cuiyun, who was forced to slap herself twice, may have felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it, but she did not dare to complain. She could only say in a low voice:
"Madam, after you walked out of the main room, I saw Xiaorui's shameless little cousin. She sneaked behind the main room. She not only said those dirty words to the young master, but also buried her in the young master's praise. Down···························"
Xiao Ruolan's expression remained unchanged after listening to Cuiyun's words. She had already known about the affair between Yasuda Yu and maid Xiaorui, but she didn't care. Compared to this matter, she cared more about another thing.
"What has Grandma Sun done recently?" Xiao Ruolan looked at Cuiyun and asked as if nothing had happened:
This Aunt Sun was the one sent by An Miaoyi to serve her. An Miaoyi was always very worried about Yasudayu, her biological brother. She thought he was too simple and was afraid that he would be bullied, so she specially sent someone to take care of him. .
In response to Xiao Ruolan's inquiry, Cuiyun said without hesitation:
"Nanny Sun usually checks the accounts to see what has been bought in the house, or goes out every week to meet with Qiqige from the Governor's Mansion. Apart from these, she doesn't do anything else!"
Xiao Ruolan didn't say anything after hearing this, she just threw a piece of silver from her cuff to Cuiyun. Cuiyun, who had received the silver, weighed it in her little hands, and her originally aggrieved expression suddenly showed a hint of joy.
She was sold to the house as a maid during the famine years. Her parents and brothers had long since starved to death. Because of her average appearance, she also knew that it was impossible for her to climb a high branch and become a phoenix by leaping from a branch. Therefore, her biggest dream was She just saves some money to go out and get married, and every little money she saves now is her dowry, which is also the source of her future confidence in her husband's family!
"Thank you madam for the reward!" Cuiyun kneeled on the ground and respectfully said to Xiao Ruolan:
Xiao Ruolan said lightly:
"If anything happens, come and report it as soon as possible. Money is indispensable from you..."

Yunbin, Jinzhong, Dagu County
Fang Dawei, the commander of the Second Army of the Fengwu Army in uniform in the county seat, looked at the Luoan Forbidden Army camp outside the city with a serious expression. If his intelligence was correct, the Luoan Forbidden Army outside the city would be strong at this time. There will be more than 20,000 people, and at this time, the Fengwu Army in his city only has a battalion of about 3,000 troops.
General Lin Huaiwu of the Second Division successfully captured Jinzhong half a year ago. After proving his ability to Ye Mingsheng and his colleagues in the Fengwu Army, he was promoted to the commander of the Second Army by Ye Mingsheng as he wished. With Lin Huaiwu's promotion Fang Dawei, deputy general of the Second Division, also followed the rising tide and became the commander of the Second Army.
Because during the recent period, the Luo'an court declared the Fengwu Army to be rebellious and continued to increase troops to the Jinyang area, resulting in a very strong smell of gunpowder in this area. In addition, the Coordination Office had notified the Luo'an Forbidden Army in advance. Launched exploratory attacks on counties in central Shanxi controlled by Fengwu Army.
Therefore, under the order of Lin Huaiwu, the commander of the Second Army, all the troops of the Second Army were on heightened alert. For this reason, Lin Huaiwu originally planned to personally inspect the defense of each county. However, considering that Lin Huaiwu was the commander-in-chief and needed to be in command in central Shanxi, he decided to It was Fang Dawei, the commander-in-chief, who took over the task of inspecting the counties.
And Fang Dawei never expected that he would encounter so many Luoan Forbidden Army besieging the city in Dagu County just after he started inspecting... ····
"Sir, the red cannon has adjusted its position, and the rest of the troops have also taken their positions!"
A Fengwu Army general with a resolute expression came over and reported to Fang Dawei:
Although he has grown a beard, his skin has turned brown due to sun exposure, and his hair is a bit messy because he has not taken care of it, it can still be seen from his eyebrows that this person is not very young.
This person's name is Ye Tao, the commander of the first battalion of the Second Army stationed in Dagu County. He is also a collateral descendant of the Ye family. He is only twenty-five years old this year. Although he is very young, he started his career in the Fengwu Army. At that time, he was one of the earliest descendants of the Ye family to follow Ye Mingsheng.
However, Ye Tao's ability to become the leader of the Fengwu Army was not entirely due to his identity as a descendant of the Ye family and his seniority in the Fengwu Army.
Like many children of the Ye family, Ye Tao joined the Fengwu Army with his admiration for Ye Mingsheng and the desire to stand out. After arriving in the Fengwu Army, with his hard-working spirit and courage to fight, Having made many military exploits, coupled with the natural advantage of his surname Ye, Ye Tao quickly stood out and was promoted to the sentry commander of the second division during the battle of Youyan's entry into the pass.
In the Battle of Jinzhong, Ye Tao's troops were the first to invade the city. Lin Huaiwu commended him and wrote to Ye Mingsheng, who recommended Ye Tao to become a commander of the Second Army, and was later placed at the forefront of the Fengwu Army. Otani County garrison·······················
After hearing Ye Tao's report, Fang Dawei nodded and then ordered:
"In an hour or two, the Luo'an Forbidden Army will almost attack the city. You ask the artillery to save some shells and don't shoot out all the shells in your hands at once. We may have to hold on in Dagu County for a while!"
Ye Tao asked with some confusion after hearing this:
"My lord, didn't you ask the commander for reinforcements last night? Logically speaking, my lord's reinforcements should arrive soon!"
Fang Dawei smiled bitterly, shook his head and asked:
"Ye Tao, do you know how many enemy troops there are in Jinyang now?"
Faced with Fang Dawei's inquiry, Ye Tao frowned slightly. He was just a commander and had no access to the intelligence above. He only knew that the Luo'an Forbidden Army on the opposite side had added a lot of troops, but he didn't know the specific number of enemy troops.
Seeing that Ye Tao didn't speak, Fang Dawei didn't show off and said directly:
"Feng Han had almost 30,000 troops in Jinyang before, and a few days ago another 30,000 troops came from Luo'an, and the Coordination Office also said that Luo'an is likely to add two more troops in the future. To 50,000 people..."
"Although winter is coming soon, the enemy will not launch large-scale attacks at this time, but some small-scale harassment is definitely indispensable. Our army's defense pressure in Jinzhong will be very heavy. I guess there may not be only We encountered enemy troops in Otani.”
"Ye Tao, you also know the situation of our army. Even if the commander intends to increase the number of troops in Dagu County, he may not have enough manpower!"
Fang Dawei said this, and Ye Tao also understood what he meant, and knew that his previous thoughts were a bit too optimistic.
After Lin Huaiwu captured Jinzhong, Ye Mingsheng promoted him to the commander of the Second Army. The staff also prepared to expand the second division into the Second Army, so that Lin Huaiwu, the commander of the Second Army, would become worthy of his name. .
However, at this juncture, Ye Mingsheng felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of the Hebei-Henan region, so the strategic focus of the Fengwu Army was concentrated on going south again. Money, food, weapons and armor, artillery and firecrackers were all allocated first. On the battlefield in Hebei and Yu···················
The strategic resources of the Fengwu Army are limited and are concentrated on the Hebei-Henan battlefield. Naturally, they cannot invest more strategic resources in the Yunbin battlefield. Therefore, the expansion plan of the Second Army has been temporarily suspended. It was shelved, which resulted in the fact that although Lin Huaiwu was nominally the commander of the Second Army of the Fengwu Army, in fact the number of troops under his command was still only more than 20,000 people from the original Second Division!
Therefore, on this basis, even if Lin Huai gathers together the township regiments and warriors from all over the country and temporarily supplements them into the second army, the total number of troops and horses will not exceed 30,000 at most, and now the opponent's troops and horses clearly have There are 60,000 people, which is more than twice that of the Second Army. The Fengwu Army will be very tight!
What's more, the main force of the Fengwu Army, which exceeds 10,000 people, is all stationed in Jinzhong City. Therefore, the strength gap between the two sides in these peripheral villages and counties will be even greater. Therefore, with such a large troop gap, as well as the entire When the defense lines are oppressed by the opponent, Lin Huaiwu, as the coach, will definitely adopt more cautious defense tactics. In all likelihood, he will not send more reinforcements to Dagu County, which is at the forefront of the battle between the two sides. This requires Dagu County to be self-reliant... ··························
